TERMINATION OF THE OFFERING The undersigned understands that the Company may terminate the offering at any time and for any reason. If the offering is so terminated, and the Company is holding subscriptions that have not been accepted by an authorized representative of the Company, together with the un-accepted subscription agreements, then in that event the subscriptions so held shall be returned without any interest earned thereon.
Description of the Offering This Subscription Agreement is for units (the “Units”) comprised of a 10% Convertible Debenture (the “Debenture”) and warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $.001 per share (the “Common Stock”). This Offering (the “Offering”) is made only to accredited investors who qualify as accredited investors pursuant to the suitability standards for investors described under Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and who have no need for liquidity in their investments. The Offering is for an investment of $100,000.00. However, the Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to accept fractional subscriptions. Prior to this Offering there was no public market for the Debenture, the Warrants or the Common Stock, and no assurance can be given that a market will develop for the Debentures, or the, the Warrants or Common Stock, if developed, that it will be maintained so that any subscribers in this Offering may avail any benefit from the same. THE SECURITIES OFFERED HEREBY ARE SPECULATIVE AND INVOLVE A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK AND SHOULD NOT BE PURCHASED BY ANYONE WHO CANNOT AFFORD THE LOSS OF THEIR ENTIRE INVESTMENT. THE SECURITIES OFFERED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE, OR OTHER JURISDICTION AND ARE BEING OFFERED AND SOLD IN RELIANCE ON EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND SUCH LAWS. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED, SOLD, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR ASSIGNED EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER SUCH ACT OR SUCH LAWS PURSUANT TO REGISTRATION OR EXEMPTION THEREFROM.
The Offering In accordance with the plan of conversion adopted by its Board of Directors (the "Plan"), the Company will offer and sell up to 714,200 shares of its common stock, par value, $.01 per share (the "Shares" or "Common Stock"), in a subscription offering (the "Subscription Offering") to (1) depositors of the Bank with account balances of $50.00 or more as of December 31, 1998 ("Eligible Account Holders"), (2) depositors of the Bank with account balances of $50.00 or more as of September 30, 2001 ("Supplemental Eligible Account Holders"), (3) depositors of the Bank as of the close of business on ___________, who continue as depositors as of the Special Meeting who are not Eligible Account Holders or Supplemental Eligible Account Holders ("Other Members"), and (4) employees, officers and directors of the Bank to the extent they are not Eligible Account Holders, Supplemental Eligible Account Holders, or Other Members. To the extent Shares remain unsold in the Subscription Offering, the Company is offering for sale in a direct community offering (the "Community Offering" and when referred to together with the Subscription Offering, the "Subscription and Community Offering") the Shares not so subscribed for or ordered in the Subscription Offering to members of the general public, with preference given to natural persons residing in the Illinois county of DuPage ("Other Subscribers"), (all such offerees being referred to in the aggregate as "Eligible Offerees"). It is anticipated that shares not subscribed for in the Subscription and Community Offering will be offered to certain members of the general public on a best efforts basis through a selected dealers arrangement (the "Public Offering") (the Subscription Offering, Community Offering and Public Offering are collectively referred to as the "Offering"). It is acknowledged that the purchase of Shares in the Offering is subject to the maximum and minimum purchase limitations as described in the Plan and that the Company and the Bank may reject, in whole or in part, any orders received in the Community Offering or Public Offering. The Company will issue the Shares at a purchase price of $10.00 per share (the "Purchase Price").
Future Offerings Subject to the exceptions described below, the Company will not, without the prior written consent of a majority-in-interest of the Buyers, negotiate or contract with any party to obtain additional equity financing (including debt financing with an equity component) that involves (A) the issuance of Common Stock at a discount to the market price of the Common Stock on the date of issuance (taking into account the value of any warrants or options to acquire Common Stock issued in connection therewith) or (B) the issuance of convertible securities that are convertible into an indeterminate number of shares of Common Stock or (C) the issuance of warrants during the period (the “Lock-up Period”) beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the later of (i) two hundred seventy (270) days from the Closing Date and (ii) one hundred eighty (180) days from the date the Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) is declared effective (plus any days in which sales cannot be made thereunder). In addition, subject to the exceptions described below, the Company will not conduct any equity financing (including debt with an equity component) (“Future Offerings”) during the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending two (2) years after the end of the Lock-up Period unless it shall have first delivered to each Buyer, at least twenty (20) business days prior to the closing of such Future Offering, written notice describing the proposed Future Offering, including the terms and conditions thereof and proposed definitive documentation to be entered into in connection therewith, and providing each Buyer an option during the fifteen (15) day period following delivery of such notice to purchase its pro rata share (based on the ratio that the aggregate principal amount of Notes purchased by it hereunder bears to the aggregate principal amount of Notes purchased hereunder) of the securities being offered in the Future Offering on the same terms as contemplated by such Future Offering (the limitations referred to in this sentence and the preceding sentence are collectively referred to as the “Capital Raising Limitations”). In the event the terms and conditions of a proposed Future Offering are amended in any respect after delivery of the notice to the Buyers concerning the proposed Future Offering, the Company shall deliver a new notice to each Buyer describing the amended terms and conditions of the proposed Future Offering and each Buyer thereafter shall have an option during the fifteen (15) day period following delivery of such new notice to purchase its pro rata share of the securities being offered on the same terms as contemplated by such proposed Future Offering, as amended.

The Capital Raising Limitations also shall not apply to the issuance of securities upon exercise or conversion of the Company’s options, warrants or other convertible securities outstanding as of the date hereof or to the grant of additional options or warrants, or the issuance of additional securities, under any Company stock option or restricted stock plan approved by the shareholders of the Company. Notwithstanding anything in this section 4(e) to the contrary, in the event the Company’s Board of Directors decides, in good faith, to enter into a transaction or relationship in which the Company issues shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company to a person or any entity which is, itself or through its subsidiaries, an operating company in a business synergistic with the business of the Company and in which the Company received benefits in addition to the investment of funds, but shall not include a transaction in which the Company is issuing securities primarily for the purpose of raising capital or to an entity whose business is investing in securities, the Company shall be permitted to do so.
