                         (a) Involuntary Termination. The Board of Directors may terminate the Employee's employment at any time, but, except in the case of Termination for Cause,

                         (c) Voluntary Termination. The Employee's employment may be voluntarily terminated by the Employee at any time upon 90 days' written notice to the Bank or such
shorter period as may be agreed upon between the Employee and the Board of Directors of the Bank. In the event of such voluntary termination, the Bank shall be obligated to continue to pay to the
Employee the Employee's salary and benefits only through the Date of Termination, at the time such payments are due, and the Bank shall have no further obligation to the Employee under this
Agreement. 

                         (d) Death; Disability. In the event of the death of the Employee while employed under this Agreement and prior to any termination of employment, the Employee's
estate, or such person as the Employee may have previously designated in writing, shall be entitled to receive from the Bank the salary of the Employee through the last day of the calendar month in
which the Employee died. If the Employee becomes disabled as defined in the Bank's then current disability plan, if any, or if the Employee is otherwise unable to serve as Senior Vice-President /
Chief Administrative Officer, the Employee shall be entitled to receive group and other disability income benefits of the type, if any, then provided by the Bank for executive officers
generally. 

                         (e) Temporary Suspension or Prohibition. If the Employee is suspended and/or temporarily prohibited from participating in the conduct of the Bank's affairs by a
notice served under Section 8(e)(3) or (g)(1) of the FDIA, 12 U.S.C. § 1818(e)(3) and (g)(1), the Bank's obligations under this Agreement shall be suspended as of the date of service,
unless stayed by appropriate proceedings. If the charges in the notice are dismissed, the Bank may in its discretion (i) pay the Employee all or part of the compensation withheld while its
obligations under this Agreement were suspended and (ii) reinstate in whole or in part any of its obligations which were suspended. 

                         (f) Permanent Suspension or Prohibition. If the Employee is removed and/or permanently prohibited from participating in the conduct of the Bank's affairs by an
order issued under Section 8(e)(4) or (g)(1) of the FDIA, 12 U.S.C. § 1818(e)(4) and (g)(1), all obligations of the Bank under this Agreement shall terminate as of the effective date of the
order, but vested rights of the contracting parties shall not be affected. 

                         (g) Default of the Bank. If the Bank is in default (as defined in Section 3(x)(1) of the FDIA), all obligations under this Agreement shall terminate as of the
date of default, but this provision shall not affect any vested rights of the contracting parties. 

                         (h) Termination by Regulators. All obligations under this Agreement shall be terminated, except to the extent determined that continuation of this Agreement is
necessary for the continued operation of the Bank: (1) by the Director of the Office of Thrift Supervision (the "Director") or his or her designee, at the time the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation enters into an agreement to provide assistance to or on behalf of the Bank under the authority contained in Section 13(c) of the FDIA; or (2) by the Director or his or her designee,
at the time the Director or his or her designee approves a supervisory merger to resolve problems related to operation of the Bank or when the Bank is determined by the Director to be in an unsafe or
unsound condition. Any rights of the parties that have already vested, however, shall not be affected by any such action.

             8. Certain Reduction of Payments by the Bank. 

                         (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the value and amounts of benefits under this Agreement, together with any other amounts and the value of
benefits received or to be received by the Employee in connection with a change in control would cause any amount to be nondeductible for federal income tax purposes pursuant to Section 280G of the
Code, then amounts and benefits under this Agreement shall be reduced (not less than zero) to the extent necessary so as to maximize amounts and the value of benefits to the Employee without causing
any amount to become nondeductible pursuant to or by reason of such Section 280G. The Employee shall determine the allocation of such reduction among payments and benefits to the Employee. 

                         (b)  Any payments made to the Employee pursuant to this Agreement, or otherwise, are subject to and conditioned upon their compliance with 12 U.S.C. 1828(k) and
any regulations promulgated thereunder. 

             9. Non-Disclosure and Non-Competition. The provisions of this Section 9 shall survive termination of this Agreement. 

                         (a) Non-Disclosure of Confidential Information. During the term of this Agreement and thereafter, the Employee shall not disclose confidential information of
the Bank to anyone except as permitted by the Bank or under compulsion of law. 

                         (b) Non-Competition. In the event that the Employee terminates his employment by the Bank during the term of this Agreement, or in the event that after
termination, or the expiration of the term, of this Agreement, the Employee voluntarily terminates his employment with the Bank after the Bank has offered to continue to employ him with the same
salary and benefits as would have applied under this Agreement, then for a period of one year after he ceases to be employed by the Bank, the Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, as a
director, employee or consultant, provide services to any bank, savings association or credit union, or other mortgage or consumer lender with an office within Eau Claire or Chippewa Counties,
Wisconsin. 

             10. No Mitigation. The Employee shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any salary or other payment or benefit provided for in this Agreement by seeking
other employment or otherwise, nor shall the amount of any payment or benefit provided for in this Agreement be reduced by any compensation earned by the Employee as the result of employment by
another employer, by retirement benefits after the Date of Termination or otherwise. 

             11. Attorneys Fees. In the event the Bank exercises its right of Termination for Cause, but it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or by an
arbitrator pursuant to Section 18 that cause did not exist for such termination, or if in any event it is determined by any such court or arbitrator that the Bank has failed to make timely
payment of any amounts owed to the Employee under this Agreement, the Employee shall be entitled to reimbursement for all reasonable costs,

5NEXT PAGE

 including attorneys' fees, incurred in challenging such
termination or collecting such amounts. Such reimbursement shall be in addition to all rights to which the Employee is otherwise entitled under this Agreement. 

             12. No Assignments. 

                         (a)  This Agreement is personal to each of the parties hereto, and neither party may assign or delegate any of its rights or obligations hereunder without first
obtaining the written consent of the other party; provided, however, that the Bank shall require any successor or assign (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise)
to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Bank, by an assumption agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Employee, to expressly assume and agree to perform this
Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Bank would be required to perform it if no such succession or assignment had taken place. Failure of the Bank to obtain such an assumption
agreement prior to the effectiveness of any such succession or assignment shall be a breach of this Agreement and shall entitle the Employee to compensation from the Bank in the same amount and on
the same terms as the compensation pursuant to Section 7(a) hereof. For purposes of implementing the provisions of this Section 12(a), the date on which any such succession becomes effective shall be
deemed the Date of Termination. 

                         (b)  This Agreement and all rights of the Employee hereunder shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Employee's personal and legal
representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. If the Employee should die while any amounts would still be payable to the Employee hereunder if
the Employee had continued to live, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to the Employee's devisee, legatee or other
designee or if there is no such designee, to the Employee's estate. 

                         13. Notice. For the purposes of this Agreement, notices and all other communications provided for in the Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to
have been duly given when personally delivered or sent by certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, to the Bank at its home office, to the attention of the Board of Directors with a
copy to the Secretary of the Bank, or, if to the Employee, to such home or other address as the Employee has most recently provided in writing to the Bank. 

             14. Amendments. No amendments or additions to this Agreement shall be binding unless in writing and signed by both parties, except as herein otherwise
provided. 

             15. Headings. The headings used in this Agreement are included solely for convenience and shall not affect, or be used in connection with, the interpretation of
this Agreement.

             16. Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the
validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof. 

             17. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the United States to the extent applicable and otherwise by the laws of the State of
Wisconsin. 

             18. Arbitration. Except with respect to a breach of alleged or threatened breach of Section 9 of this Agreement by the Employee, any dispute or controversy
arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be settled exclusively by arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect. Judgment may be
entered on the arbitrator's award in any court having jurisdiction. 

             IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the day and year first above written. 

             THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION PROVISION WHICH MAY BE ENFORCED BY THE PARTIES.

the FDIA), all obligations under this Agreement shall terminate as of the date of default, but this
provision shall not affect any vested rights of the contracting parties.

            		(h)  Termination by Regulators.  All obligations under this Agreement shall be
terminated, except to the extent determined that continuation of this Agreement is necessary for the
continued operation of the Bank:  (1) by the Director of the Office of Thrift Supervision (the
"Director") or his or her designee, at the time the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation enters into

an agreement to provide assistance to or on behalf of the Bank under the authority contained in
Section 13(c) of the FDIA; or (2) by the Director or his or her designee, at the time the Director or
his or her designee approves a supervisory merger to resolve problems related to operation of the
Bank or when the Bank is determined by the Director to be in an unsafe or unsound condition.  Any
rights of the parties that have already vested, however, shall not be affected by any such action.

            	8.  Certain Reduction of Payments by the Bank.

            		(a)  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the value and amounts
of benefits under this Agreement, together with any other amounts and the value of  benefits received
or to be received by the Employee in connection with a change in control would cause any amount
to be nondeductible for federal income tax purposes pursuant to Section 280G of the Code, then
amounts and benefits under this Agreement shall be reduced (not less than zero) to the extent
necessary so as to maximize amounts and the value of benefits to the Employee without causing any
amount to become nondeductible pursuant to or by reason of such Section 280G.  The Employee
shall determine the allocation of such reduction among payments and benefits to the Employee.

            		(b)  Any payments made to the Employee pursuant to this Agreement, or otherwise,
are subject to and conditioned upon their compliance with 12 U.S.C. 1828(k) and any regulations
promulgated thereunder.

            	9.	Non-Disclosure and Non-Competition.  The provisions of this Section 9 shall survive
termination of this Agreement.

            		(a)	Non-Disclosure of Confidential Information.  During the term of this
Agreement and thereafter, the Employee shall not disclose confidential information of the Bank to
anyone except as permitted by the Bank or under compulsion of law.

            		(b)	Non-Competition.  In the event that the Employee terminates his employment
by the Bank during the term of this Agreement, or in the event that after termination, or the
expiration of the term, of this Agreement, the Employee voluntarily terminates his employment with
the Bank after the Bank has offered to continue to employ him with the same salary and benefits as
would have applied under this Agreement, then for a period of one year after he ceases to be
employed by the Bank, the Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, as a director, employee or
consultant, provide services to any bank, savings association or credit union, or other mortgage or
consumer lender with an office within Eau Claire or Chippewa Counties, Wisconsin.

            	10.	No Mitigation.  The Employee shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any
salary or other payment or benefit provided for in this Agreement by seeking other employment or
otherwise, nor shall the amount of any payment or benefit provided for in this Agreement be reduced
by any compensation earned by the Employee as the result of employment by another employer, by
retirement benefits after the Date of Termination or otherwise.

            	11.  Attorneys Fees.  In the event the Bank exercises its right of Termination for Cause, but
it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or by an arbitrator pursuant to Section 18 that
cause did not exist for such termination, or if in any event it is determined by any such court or
arbitrator that the Bank has failed to make timely payment of any amounts owed to the Employee
under this Agreement, the Employee shall be entitled to reimbursement for all reasonable costs,
including attorneys' fees, incurred in challenging such termination or collecting such amounts.  Such
reimbursement shall be in addition to all rights to which the Employee is otherwise entitled under
this Agreement.

            	12.  No Assignments.

            		(a)  This Agreement is personal to each of the parties hereto, and neither party may
assign or delegate any of its rights or obligations hereunder without first obtaining the written
consent of the other party; provided, however, that the Bank shall require any successor or assign
(whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially
all of the business and/or assets of the Bank, by an assumption agreement in form and substance
satisfactory to the Employee, to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same
manner and to the same extent that the Bank would be required to perform it if no such succession
or assignment had taken place.  Failure of the Bank to obtain such an assumption agreement prior
to the effectiveness of any such succession or assignment shall be a breach of this Agreement and
shall entitle the Employee to compensation from the Bank in the same amount and on the same terms
as the compensation pursuant to Section 7(a) hereof.  For purposes of implementing the provisions
of this Section 12(a), the date on which any such succession becomes effective shall be deemed the
Date of Termination.

            		(b)  This Agreement and all rights of the Employee hereunder shall inure to the
benefit of and be enforceable by the Employee's personal and legal representatives, executors,
administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees.  If the Employee should die
while any amounts would still be payable to the Employee hereunder if the Employee had continued
to live, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement to the Employee's devisee, legatee or other designee or if there is no such
designee, to the Employee's estate.

            	13.  Notice.  For the purposes of this Agreement, notices and all other communications
provided for in the Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when
personally delivered or sent by certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, to the Bank
at its home office, to the attention of the Board of Directors with a copy to the Secretary of the Bank,
or, if to the Employee, to such home or other address as the Employee has most recently provided
in writing to the Bank.

            	14.  Amendments.  No amendments or additions to this Agreement shall be binding unless
in writing and signed by both parties, except as herein otherwise provided.

            	15.  Headings.  The headings used in this Agreement are included solely for convenience and
shall not affect, or be used in connection with, the interpretation of this Agreement.

            	16.  Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable and the
invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the
other provisions hereof.

            	17.  Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the United States to
the extent applicable and otherwise by the laws of the State of Wisconsin.

            	18.  Arbitration.  Except with respect to a breach of alleged or threatened breach of Section
9 of this Agreement by the Employee, any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with
this Agreement shall be settled exclusively by arbitration in accordance with the rules of the
American Arbitration Association then in effect.  Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator's award
in any court having jurisdiction.

            	IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the day and year
first above written.

            	THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION PROVISION WHICH
MAY BE ENFORCED BY THE PARTIES.
