      6. Deferral of Payment,
Distribution and Transfer of Stock.

       

      (a)           The
Grantee may irrevocably elect to defer the time of  payment,
distribution and transfer of Performance Units , Common Stock and cash that the
Grantee becomes entitled to receive under this Agreement and Award from the end
of the Performance Period generally provided for in paragraph 5, above, to a
specified time by filing with the Committee, on or before the deferral election
date (hereinafter referred to as "Election Date") described in paragraph 6(b),
below, a signed written irrevocable election (hereinafter referred to as
"Election") which shall be in the form substantially the same as attached hereto
as Exhibit D, or as otherwise prescribed by the Committee.

      

      (b)           An
Election of the Grantee to defer the payment, distribution and transfer of
Performance Units, Common Stock and cash that the Grantee becomes entitled to
receive under this Agreement and Award shall be filed by the Grantee with the
Committee on or before the Election Date, which shall be August 18, 2012, the
date that is six (6) months before the end of the Performance Period, provided
that the Grantee performs services for the Corporation continuously from the
later of the beginning of the Performance Period or the date the performance
criteria are established through the date the Election is made under this
paragraph 6(b), and provided, further, that in no event may the Grantee make an
Election to defer the payment, distribution and transfer of Performance Units,
Common Stock or cash after such compensation has become readily ascertainable;
and in this regard for purposes of this paragraph 6(b), if the amount of
Performance Units, Common Stock and cash, or other compensation, as
performance-based compensation, is a specified or calculable amount, then it
shall be considered compensation that is readily ascertainable if and when the
amount is first substantially certain to be paid, distributed and transferred to
the Grantee. If the amount of Performance Units, Common Stock and cash, or other
compensation, is performance-based compensation that is not a specified or
calculable amount because, for example, the amount may vary based upon the level
of performance, such compensation, or any portion of the compensation, shall be
considered readily ascertainable when the amount is first both calculable and
substantially certain to be paid. For this purpose, such performance-based
compensation is to be bifurcated between the portion that is readily
ascertainable and the amount that is not readily ascertainable, and, in general,
any minimum amount that is both calculable and substantially certain to be paid
shall be treated as readily ascertainable.

       

      (c)           A
Grantee that makes an Election to defer payment, distribution and transfer of
Performance Units, Common Stock and cash that the Grantee becomes entitled to
receive under this Agreement and Award may irrevocably elect to have payment,
distribution and transfer made to the Grantee at a Specified Time, that shall be
either (i) the later of (A) the date of the Grantee's separation from service
with the Corporation, or (B) a specified calendar date, or (ii) the date of the
Grantee's separation from service with the Corporation; and may elect to have
payment made in a specified form of payment that shall be either (i) a single
lump sum payment, distribution and transfer, or (ii) a payment, distribution and
transfer in two, three, four

       

      
        
           

        

        
          -4-

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

       

      
        or five
equal annual installments commencing at the Specified Time elected by the
Grantee hereunder and thereafter on each anniversary thereof until fully paid,
transferred and distributed.

         

      

      (d)           The
Award shall be subject to such other rules and requirements as the Committee, in
its sole discretion, may determine to be appropriate with respect to
administration thereof and the restrictions made applicable to the Grantee and
the Performance Units during the Performance Period.  This instrument
and the rights and obligations of the parties involved, shall be subject to
interpretation and construction by the Committee to the same extent and with the
same effect as the Committee actions under pertinent provisions of the
Plan.  The Grantee shall take all actions and execute and deliver all
documents as may from time to time be requested by the Committee in connection
with such restrictions and in furtherance hereof.  The Grantee agrees
to pay to the Corporation any applicable federal, state, or local income,
employment, social security, Medicare, or other withholding tax obligation
arising in connection with the grant of the Award to the Grantee; and the
Corporation shall have the right, without the Grantee’s prior approval or
direction, to satisfy such withholding tax by withholding all or any part of the
Common Stock that would otherwise be transferred and delivered to the Grantee,
with any shares of Common Stock so withheld to be valued at the Fair Market
Value (as defined in the Plan) on the date of such withholding. The Grantee,
with the consent of the Corporation, may satisfy such withholding tax by
delivery and transfer to the Corporation of shares of Common Stock previously
owned by the Grantee, with any shares so delivered and transferred to be valued
at the Fair Market Value on the date of such delivery.

       

      (e)           The
provisions of this instrument providing for the deferral of payment,
distribution, transfer or issuance of Performance Units, Common Stock or cash
shall be applicable solely and exclusively to the Grantee and the Award
Agreement and Award referred to herein, and shall not apply to any other stock
incentive or other grant, award or transfer provided for or made under the
Plan.

       

      (f)           Notwithstanding
anything otherwise provided under the Plan or in the Award Agreement and Award,
the following requirements shall apply to this Award Agreement and the Award, to
all elections or subsequent elections made by the Grantee, and to all
distributions and payments made to the Grantee pursuant to this Award Agreement
and Award:

       

      (1)           Any
compensation for services performed by the Grantee during a taxable year may be
deferred at the Grantee's election or the Corporation's election or
determination only if the election to defer such compensation is made not later
than the close of the preceding taxable year or such other time as provided in
Treasury Regulations under section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended ("Code"), but in all events any deferral of the payment, distribution,
transfer or issuance of Performance Units, Common Stock or cash pursuant to the
Award and Award Agreement may be made only by an election that is made on or
before the Election Date.

       

      (2)           Any
compensation deferred under the Plan shall not be distributed earlier
than

       

      (i)           Separation
from Service of the Grantee,

      
        
           

        

        
          -5-

compensation,

      

                     

      (v)           a
Change in Ownership or Control, or

       

      (vi)           the
occurrence of an Unforeseeable Emergency.

       

      (3)           If
the Grantee is a Specified Employee, no payment or distribution shall be made

Separation from Service, or, if earlier, the date of death of the
Grantee.

       

      (4)           No
acceleration of the time or schedule of any distribution or payment under the
plan under which compensation is deferred shall be permitted or allowed, except
to the extent provided in Treasury Regulations issued under Code section
409A.

       

      (5)           This
instrument shall not permit a subsequent election unless authorized and agreed
upon in writing by the Corporation and Grantee, and if the Plan or this
instrument permits under any subsequent election by the Grantee a delay in a
payment or a change in the form of payment of compensation deferred under this
Award Agreement and Award, such subsequent election shall not take effect until
at least twelve (12) months after the date on which it is made.  In
the case of a subsequent election related to a payment to be made upon
Separation from Service of the Grantee, at a Specified Time or pursuant to a
Fixed Schedule, or upon a Change in Ownership or Control, the first payment with
respect to which such subsequent election is made shall be deferred for a period
of not less than five (5) years from the date such payment would otherwise have
been made; and any such subsequent election related to a payment at a Specified
Time or pursuant to a Fixed Schedule may not be made less than twelve (12)
months prior to the date of the first scheduled payment to which it
relates.

      (d)           Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions, in the event of termination of the Grantee’s

Performance Period by reason of (i) the Retirement of the Grantee, (ii) the
Total Disability of the Grantee, or (iii) the Grantee’s death while still

Performance Units equal to the total of Performance Units earned under the Award
at the end of the Performance Period for the Grantee, multiplied by a fraction
of which the numerator shall be the number of full months which have elapsed
under the Performance Period at the time of such termination of employment by
reason of Retirement, Total Disability or death, and the denominator of which
shall be the total number of months in the Performance Period. The Grantee,
legatees, designated Beneficiary, or personal representatives or heirs of the
Grantee, as the case may be, shall become entitled to receive such prorated
award at the expiration of the Performance Period and following application of
the performance criteria as provided in the Award and determined by the
Committee.

      

      The
prorated award of Performance Units earned in the Performance Period to which
the Grantee or the legatees, a designated Beneficiary, or the personal
representative or heirs of the Grantee shall become vested in and entitled to
receive under the foregoing provisions in event of Retirement, Total Disability
or death of the Grantee, is to be qualified performance-based compensation paid
solely on account of attainment of the Performance Goal,  as provided
for in Treas. Reg. §1.162-27(e)(2)(i).  The Retirement, Total
Disability or death of the Grantee during the Performance Period in and of
itself alone shall in no case vest the Grantee in Performance Units or any part
of thereof. A prorated vesting and entitlement to Performance Units or a part
thereof hereunder by reason of such events shall in all cases remain subject to
and dependent solely upon the attainment of the Performance Goal as provided
herein.

      

      (e)           The
Grantee may designate a Beneficiary to receive any rights of the Grantee which
may become vested in the event of the death of the Grantee under procedures
and

      
        
           

        

        
          -8-

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

      
        in the
form established by the Committee; and in the absence of such designation of a
Beneficiary, any such rights shall be deemed to be transferred to the estate of
the Grantee.

      (f)           For
purposes of the Award and this instrument, "Retirement" shall mean a voluntary
termination of employment of the Grantee with the Corporation and/or a division
or subsidiary thereof by the Grantee if at the time of such termination of
employment the Grantee has both completed five (5) years of service with the
Corporation and/or a division or subsidiary thereof and attained age fifty (50);
and except as provide for in paragraph 6 with respect to deferred compensation
payments, “Total Disability” shall mean that the Grantee is permanently and
totally disabled and unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by
reason of a medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be
expected to result in death or which has lasted or can be expected to last for a
continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months, and has established such
disability to the extent and in the manner and form as may be required under the
provisions of Section 22(e) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (or
corresponding section of any future federal tax code), and regulations
thereunder.

      

      8. Administration of
Performance Unit Award.  The grant of the Award shall be
subject to such other rules and requirements as the Committee, in its sole
discretion, may determine to be appropriate with respect to administration
thereof and the terms and conditions made applicable to the Grantee and the
Performance Units during the Performance Period.  The Award, this
instrument, and the rights and obligations of the parties thereto shall be
subject to interpretation and construction by the Committee to the same extent
and with the same effect as the Committee actions under pertinent provisions of
the Plan.  The Grantee shall take all actions and execute and deliver
all documents as may from time to time be requested by the Committee in
connection with such restrictions and in furtherance hereof.  The
Grantee agrees to pay to the Corporation any applicable federal, state, or local
income, employment, social security, medicare, or other withholding tax
obligation arising in connection with the grant of the Award to the Grantee; and
the Corporation shall have the right, without the Grantee’s prior approval or
direction, to satisfy such withholding tax by withholding all or any part of the
shares of Common Stock or cash that would otherwise be paid and transferred to
the Grantee, with any shares of Common Stock so withheld to be valued at the
Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan) on the date of such withholding. The
Grantee, with the consent of the Corporation, may satisfy such withholding tax
by delivery and transfer to the Corporation of shares of Common Stock previously
owned by the Grantee, with any shares so delivered and transferred to be valued
at the Fair Market Value on the date of such delivery.

       

      9. Adjustment
Provisions.  It is understood that, prior to the expiration of
the Performance Period certain changes in capitalization of the Corporation may
occur.  It is, therefore, understood and agreed with respect to
changes in capitalization that:

       

      (a)      If
a stock dividend is declared on the Common Stock of the Corporation, there shall
be added to the number of Performance Units provided for under the Award and
stated in paragraph 1 of this instrument, the number of Performance Units equal
to the number of Performance Units which would have been granted to the Grantee
had the Grantee been the fully vested and unrestricted owner of the number of
Performance Units then provided for under the Award granted, but not theretofore
received without restriction; provided, however, that the additional Performance
Units shall be subject to all terms and provisions of this
instrument

      
        
           

        

        
          -9-

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

       

      
        (including,
without limitation, the terms and conditions stated in paragraph 5, above), and
in making such adjustments, no fractional units, shares, or scrip certificates
in lieu thereof, shall be granted or issuable by the Corporation, and the
Grantee shall be entitled to only the number of full Performance Units to which
the Grantee may be entitled by reason of such adjustment at the adjusted
grant.

         

      

      (b)      In
the event of an increase in the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the
Corporation, effectuated for the purpose of acquiring properties or securities
of another corporation or business enterprise, there shall be no increase in the
number of Performance Units which are the subject matter of the Award under this
instrument as a result of such acquisition.

      

      (c)      In
the event of an increase or decrease in the number of outstanding shares of
Common Stock of the Corporation through recapitalization, reclassification,
stock split-ups, consolidation of shares, changes in par value and the like, an
appropriate adjustment shall be made in the number of Performance Units provided
for under the Award and stated in Section 1 of this instrument, by increasing or
decreasing the number of Performance Units, as may be required to enable the
Grantee to acquire the same proportionate stockholdings as the grant of the
Award would originally have provided.  Provided, however, that any
additional Performance Units shall be subject to all terms and provisions of
this instrument (including, without limitation, the restrictions stated in
paragraph 5, above), and that in making such adjustments, no fractional
Performance Units shall be awarded, and the Grantee shall be entitled to receive
only the number of full Performance Units to which the Grantee may be entitled
by reason of such adjustment.

      

      (e)           Except
as otherwise provided for with respect to the payment of any deferred
compensation in paragraph 6, above,  to the extent Performance Units
are still not vested in Grantee at the time of a Change in Control with respect
to the Corporation, then pursuant to the provisions of the Plan, they shall
become fully vested and completely free and clear of any conditions or
restrictions stated herein at that time; provided, that if such Change in
Control occurs less than six (6) months after the date of the grant of the Award
hereunder to the Grantee, then Performance Units shall become fully vested and
completely free and clear of any conditions or restrictions stated herein at the
time of such Change in Control only if the Grantee agrees in writing, if
requested by the Corporation in writing, to remain in the employ of the
Corporation or a division or subsidiary of the Corporation at least through the
date which is six (6) months after the date the grant was made with
substantially the same title, duties, authority, reporting relationships, and
compensation as on the day immediately preceding the Change in
Control.  The provisions of this subparagraph (d) shall be applied in
addition to, and shall not reduce, modify, or change any other obligation or
right of the Grantee otherwise provided for in paragraph 3, above, concerning
the Grantee’s continued employment with the Corporation or the termination
thereof.  If the Performance Units become subject to this subparagraph
(d), they shall become fully vested in the Grantee and
nonforfeitable.  The Performance Units are subject to the provisions
of the Plan authorizing the Corporation, or a committee of its Board of
Directors, to provide in advance or at the time of a Change in Control for cash
to be paid in actual settlement of the shares of Common Stock for earned
Performance Units, all subject to such terms and conditions as the Corporation
or the Committee, in its sole discretion, may determine and
impose.  For purposes of this subparagraph (d), the term “Change in
Control” shall have the

      
        
           

        

        
          -10-

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

      
        same
meaning as provided in the definition of that term stated in the Plan, including
any amendments thereof which may be made from time to time in the future
pursuant to the provisions of the Plan, with any amended definition of such term
to apply to all events thereafter coming within the amended
meaning.

      10. Required Grantee
Repayment/Reduction Provision.  Notwithstanding anything in
the  Plan, the Award or this instrument to the contrary, all or a
portion of the Award made to the Grantee  under this
instrument  is subject to being called for repayment to the
Corporation or reduced in any situation where the Board of Directors of the
Corporation or a Committee thereof determines that fraud, negligence, or
intentional misconduct by the Grantee  was a contributing factor to
the Corporation having to restate all or a portion of its financial
statement(s). The Committee may determine whether the
Corporation  shall effect any such repayment or reduction : (i) by
seeking repayment from the Grantee , (ii) by reducing (subject to applicable law
and the terms and conditions of the Plan or any other applicable plan, program,
or arrangement) the amount that would otherwise be awarded or payable to the
Grantee  under the Award, the Plan or any other compensatory plan,
program, or arrangement maintained by the Corporation , (iii) by withholding
payment of future increases in compensation (including the payment of any
discretionary bonus amount) or grants of compensatory awards that would
otherwise have been made in accordance with the
Corporation's  otherwise applicable compensation practices, or (iv) by
any combination of the foregoing. The determination regarding the Grantee’s
conduct, and repayment or reduction under this provision shall be within the
sole discretion of the Committee and shall be final and binding on the Grantee
and the Corporation. The Grantee, in consideration of the grant of the Award,
and by the Grantee's execution of this instrument, acknowledges the Grantee's
understanding of and agreement to this provision, and hereby agrees to make and
allow an immediate and complete repayment or reduction in accordance with this
provision in the event of a call for repayment or other action by the
Corporation or Committee to effect its terms with respect to the Grantee, the
Award and/or any other compensation described herein.

       

      11. Stock
Reserved.  The Corporation shall at all times during the term
of the Award reserve and keep available such number of shares of its Common
Stock as will be sufficient to satisfy the Award issued and granted to Grantee
and the requirements thereof as evidenced by this instrument, and shall pay all
original issue taxes, if any, on the transfer of Common Stock to the Grantee,
and all other fees and expenses necessarily incurred by the Corporation in
connection therewith.

       

      12. Rights of
Shareholder.  Except as otherwise provided in the Award and
this instrument, the Grantee shall have no rights as a shareholder of the
Corporation in respect of the Performance Units or Common Stock for which the
Award is granted; and the Grantee shall not be considered or treated as a record
owner of shares with respect to the Common Stock until the Performance Units are
fully vested and no longer subject to any of the conditions, performance
requirements, or restrictions imposed under the Award, and Common Stock is
actually issued and transferred to the Grantee.

       

      13. Entire
Agreement.  This instrument contains the entire terms of the
Award, and may not be changed orally or other than by a written instrument
issued and approved by the Corporation pursuant to the Plan.  This
instrument supersedes any agreements or understandings

        that may
previously have existed, and there are no other agreements or understandings,
relating to its subject matter.

         

      

      14. Successors and
Assigns.  The Award shall inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon the heirs, legatees, legal representatives, successors, and assigns
of the parties thereto.

       

      The
Grantee hereby acknowledges receipt of this instrument, the Notice of
Performance Unit Award and a copy of the Plan, and accepts the Award under the
terms and conditions stated in this instrument, subject to all terms and
provisions of the Plan, by signing this instrument in duplicate originals, as of
the date first above written.

                        COMMUNITY FINANCIAL SHARES, INC.

                    LONG-TERM RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT
                    -----------------------------------------

This RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT (this "Agreement"), dated as of February
17, 2010 (the "Grant Date"), is delivered by Community Financial Shares, Inc.
(the "Company") to Scott Hamer (the "Participant").

                                    RECITALS

WHEREAS, on May 15, 2009, the Company completed the sale of $6,970,000 in
preferred shares ("TARP Funds") to the U.S. Department of the Treasury (the
"Treasury") through the Capital Purchase Program ("CPP") under the Troubled
Asset Relief Program ("TARP") established under the Emergency Economic
Stabilization Act of 2008 ("EESA") and later amended under the American Recovery
and Reinvestment Act of 2009 ("ARRA"); and

WHEREAS, executive compensation and corporate governance standards under TARP
are referred to herein as the "TARP Regulations"); and

WHEREAS, pursuant to the TARP Regulations, the Company is prohibited from paying
or accruing any bonus, retention award, or incentive compensation while the
Company is receiving assistance under TARP to certain employees of the Company,
including the Participant, with the exception of certain long-term restricted
stock or restricted stock unit awards designed to comply with the TARP
Regulations; and

WHEREAS, the Company has decided to grant Long-Term Restricted Stock Units to
the Participant as an inducement for the Participant to continue in the employ
of the Company and promote the best interests of the Company and its
shareholders; and

WHEREAS, the value of the Restricted Stock Unit award is not greater than one
third (1/3) of the Participant's total annual compensation, as determined
pursuant to the TARP Regulations.

NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed as follows:

1. GRANT OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS. Subject to Section 3 of this Agreement, the
   -------------------------------
Company hereby awards to the Participant, as of the Grant Date, Restricted Stock
Units representing 5,875 shares of Company Stock (the "Grant"). Each Restricted
Stock Unit represents the right to receive one share, or the cash-equivalent of
one share, of Company common stock on the date determined in accordance with
this Agreement. The settlement of all Restricted Stock Units which vest under
the Grant shall be made, solely at the discretion of the Company, in shares of
Company common stock or in cash in an amount equivalent to the fair market value
of the shares (as determined by the Company) at the time of settlement. In no
event, however, shall any fractional shares be issued. Accordingly, the total
number of shares of Company Stock to be issued pursuant to the Grant shall, to
the extent necessary, be rounded down to the next whole share in order to avoid
the issuance of a fractional share.

2. TARP REGULATIONS. This Agreement is intended to comply with the TARP
   ----------------
Regulations. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this
Agreement and all payments, grants, awards or other forms of compensation
provided for in this Agreement (collectively, the "Payments") shall be subject
to all applicable laws, regulations, restrictions, or governmental guidance that
become applicable in connection with the Company's participation in TARP under
the EESA and the ARRA, or any similar program of the United States government
and the Company reserves the right to modify the Payments and this Agreement as
necessary to conform to any restrictions imposed under those laws, regulations,
restrictions, or governmental guidance, including the TARP Regulations.

3. VESTING.
   -------
(a) The Restricted Stock Units shall vest in full on the first to occur of the
following dates; provided the Participant continues to be employed by, or
provide service to, the Company through the applicable date: (i) the second
anniversary of the Grant Date; (ii) the Participant's death; (iii) the
Participant's Disability; (iv) the effective date of an Change in Control Event;
or (v) the date determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 3(b)
below (the applicable date is referred to as the "Vesting Date").
Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided that an event specified in clauses
(ii)-(v) of the preceding sentence has not occurred, (i) the number of
Restricted Stock Units awarded to the Participant shall be adjusted as of
December 31, 2010, to reflect the forfeiture of such number of Restricted Stock
Units (if any) that may be required pursuant to the Participant's 2010 Incentive
Plan, which is incorporated by reference herein and (ii) such adjusted number of
Restricted Stock Units shall thereafter remain subject to the vesting
requirements of this Section 3.

(b) If a Change in Control Event occurs while the Participant is employed by, or
providing service to, the Company, the Restricted Stock Units subject to this
Grant at the time of the Change in Control Event will vest immediately prior to
the closing of the Change in Control Event. The shares subject to vested
Restricted Stock Units shall be converted into the right to receive the same
consideration per share of Company common stock payable to the other
shareholders of the Company upon the consummation of the Change in Control Event
and such consideration shall be distributed to the Participant within ten (10)
business days following the effective date of the Change in Control Event, or on
such later date necessary to comply with the TARP Regulations.

(c) Except as otherwise provide for herein, if the Participant ceases to be
employed by, or provide service to, the Company for any reason prior to vesting
in the Restricted Stock Units subject to this Grant, then the Grant will be
immediately cancelled. The Participant shall thereupon cease to have any right
or entitlement to receive any shares, or the cash-equivalent of any shares, with
respect to those cancelled Restricted Stock Units.

(d) For purposes of this Section 3, the following definitions shall apply:

         (i) "Disability" shall mean the inability of the Participant to engage
in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable
physical or mental impairment expected to result in death or to be of continuous
duration of twelve (12) months or more. The determination of whether the

                                       2

<Page>3

Participant has become Disabled shall be made by the Committee based upon such
medical or other evidence as it may deem necessary and appropriate, and such
determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Participant.

         (ii) "Change in Control Event" shall mean the effective date of a
change in control event, within the meaning assigned to such term in Treas. Reg.
1.280G-1, Q&A-27 through Q&A-29.

4. ISSUANCE SCHEDULE. Shares, or the cash-equivalent of shares, with respect to
   -----------------
the Restricted Stock Units in which the Participant vests in accordance with
Section 3 will become issuable, or payable, on the later of (a) the Vesting Date
and (b) the Repayment Date, determined in accordance with the TARP Regulations,
pursuant to which:

(i) Shares with respect to 25% of the vested Restricted Stock Units shall become
issuable on the date as of which 25% of the TARP Funds have been repaid to
Treasury;

(ii) Shares with respect to an additional 25% of the vested Restricted Stock
Units shall become issuable on the date as of which 50% of the TARP Funds have
been repaid to Treasury;

(iii) Shares with respect to an additional 25% of the vested Restricted Stock
Units shall become issuable on the date as of which 75% of the TARP Funds have
been repaid to Treasury; and

(iv) Shares with respect to the remaining vested Restricted Stock Units shall
become issuable on the date as of which 100% of the TARP Funds have been repaid
to Treasury.

Each date specified in (i) through (iv) as of which the specified percentage of
TARP Funds have been repaid shall be referred to herein as a "Repayment Date."
The Participant need not be employed by the Company on a Repayment Date to
receive shares, or the cash-equivalent of shares, with respect to vested
Restricted Stock Units. The actual issuance of the shares of Company common
stock, or the payment in lieu of shares, shall be effected on the applicable
Vesting Date or Repayment Date, or as soon as administratively practicable
thereafter.

5. LIMITED TRANSFERABILITY. Prior to actual receipt of the shares, or payment
   -----------------------
for the shares, with respect to the Restricted Stock Units that vest and become
issuable or payable hereunder, the Participant may not transfer any interest in
the Grant or the underlying shares or payment. Any rights in the Restricted
Stock Units which vest hereunder but which otherwise remain unissued at the time
of the Participant's death may be transferred pursuant to the provisions of the
Participant's will or the laws of inheritance or to the Participant's designated
beneficiary or beneficiaries of this Grant.

6. SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS AND DIVIDEND EQUIVALENTS
   -------------------------------------------
(a) The holder of this Grant shall not have any shareholder rights, including
voting or dividend rights, with respect to the shares subject to the Grant until
the he becomes the record holder of those shares upon their actual issuance
following the Company's collection of the applicable Withholding Taxes.

                                       3

<Page>4

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any dividend or other distribution,
whether regular or extraordinary and whether payable in cash, securities or
other property (other than shares of Company common stock), is declared and paid
on the outstanding Company common stock prior to the issuance of shares with
respect to the Restricted Stock Units subject to this Grant (i.e., those shares
are not otherwise issued and outstanding for purposes of entitlement to the
dividend or distribution), then a special book account shall be established for
the Participant and credited with a phantom dividend equal to the actual
dividend or distribution which would have been paid on the Restricted Stock
Units subject to this Grant had shares been issued with respect to such
Restricted Stock Units and been outstanding and entitled to that dividend or
distribution. The phantom dividend equivalents so credited shall vest at the
same time as the Restricted Stock Units to which they relate and shall be
distributed to the Participant (in the same form the actual dividend or
distribution was paid to the holders of the Company Stock entitled to that
dividend or distribution or in such other form as the Company deems appropriate)
concurrently with the issuance of shares with respect to such Restricted Stock
Units on the applicable Vesting Date or Repayment Date.

7. COLLECTION OF WITHHOLDING TAXES. If any shares or cash amount becomes
   -------------------------------
distributable to the Participant in connection with the Restricted Stock Units,
then the federal, state and local income taxes required to be withheld with
respect to those amounts shall be collected from the Participant pursuant to
such procedures as the Company deems appropriate under the circumstances,
including (without limitation) the Participant's delivery of his separate check
payable to the Company in the amount of such withholding amounts.

8. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS AND REGULATIONS. The issuance of shares of Company Stock
   ------------------------------------
pursuant to the Grant shall be subject to compliance by the Company and the
Participant with all applicable requirements of law relating thereto and with
all applicable regulations of any stock exchange on which the Company Stock may
be listed for trading at the time of such issuance.

9. SECTION 409A OF THE CODE. It is the intention of the parties that the
   ------------------------
provisions of this Agreement comply with the requirements of the short-term
deferral exception of Section 409A of the Code and Treasury Regulations Section
1.409A-1(b)(4). Accordingly, to the extent there is any ambiguity as to whether
one or more provisions of this Agreement would otherwise contravene the
requirements or limitations of Code Section 409A applicable to such short-term
deferral exception, then those provisions shall be interpreted and applied in a
manner that does not result in a violation of the requirements or limitations of
Code Section 409A and the Treasury Regulations thereunder that apply to such
exception.

10. NOTICES. Any notice required to be given or delivered to the Company under
    -------
the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and addressed to the Company at
its principal corporate offices. Any notice required to be given or delivered to
the Participant shall be in writing and addressed to the Participant at the

any question or issue arising under this Agreement shall be conclusive and
binding on all persons having an interest in the Grant.

13. GOVERNING LAW. The interpretation, performance and enforcement of this
    -------------
Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Illinois without resort
to that State's conflict-of-laws rules.

14. EMPLOYMENT AT WILL. Nothing in this Agreement or in the Plan shall confer
    ------------------
upon the Participant any right to continue to be employed by, or provide service
to, the Company for any period of specific duration or interfere with or
otherwise restrict in any way the rights of the Company (or any parent or
subsidiary employing or retaining the Participant) or of the Participant, which
rights are hereby expressly reserved by each, to terminate the Participant's
employment or service with the Company at any time for any reason, with or
without Cause.
