This option is granted as of _________ by MB Financial, Inc. (the "Company") to _____________________ (the "Optionee"), in accordance with the following terms and conditions:
1. Option Grant and Exercise Period. The Company hereby grants to the Optionee an Option (the "Option") to purchase, pursuant to the MB Financial, Inc. 1997 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as the same may from time to time be amended (the "Plan"), and upon the terms and conditions therein and hereinafter set forth, an aggregate of __________ shares (the "Option Shares") of the Common Stock, par value $.01 per share ("Common Stock"), of the Company at the price (the "Exercise Price") of $________ per share. A copy of the Plan, as currently in effect, is incorporated herein by reference, and either is attached hereto or has been delivered previously to the Optionee. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan.
Except as set forth in Section 5 below with respect to the death of the Optionee, this Option shall be exercisable only during the period (the "Exercise Period") commencing on _________ and ending at 5:00 p.m., Chicago, Illinois time, on the date five years after the date of grant of this Option, such later time and date being hereinafter referred to as the "Expiration Date." This Option is 100% vested.
During the Exercise Period, this Option shall be exercisable in whole at any time or in part from time to time subject to the provisions of this Agreement.
2. Method of Exercise of This Option. This Option may be exercised during the Exercise Period by providing written notice to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company specifying the number of Option Shares to be purchased. The notice must be in the form prescribed by Section 6.6 of the Plan. The date of exercise is the date on which such notice is received by the Company. Such notice must be accompanied by payment in full of the aggregate Exercise Price for the Option Shares to be purchased upon such exercise. Payment shall be made either (i) in cash or its equivalent, (ii) by tendering previously acquired shares of Common Stock having an aggregate Fair Market Value as of the date of exercise equal to the aggregate Exercise Price, or (iii) a combination of (i) and (ii). In addition, the Company may establish a cashless exercise program in accordance with Federal Reserve Board Regulation G. Promptly after such payment, subject to Section 3 below, the Company shall issue and deliver to the Optionee or other person exercising this Option (to whom this Option may have been transferred pursuant to Section 4 of this Agreement) a certificate or certificates representing the shares of Common Stock so purchased, registered in the name of the Optionee (or such other person), or, upon request, in the name of the Optionee (or such other person) and in the name of another jointly with right of survivorship.

3. Delivery and Registration of Shares of Common Stock. The Company's obligation to deliver shares of Common Stock hereunder shall, if the Committee so requests, be conditioned upon the receipt of a representation as to the investment intention of the Optionee or any other person to whom such shares are to be delivered, in such form as the Committee shall determine to be necessary or advisable to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or any other Federal, state or local securities law or regulation. In requesting any such representation, it may be provided that such representation requirement shall become inoperative upon a registration of such shares or other action eliminating the necessity of such representation under the Securities Act or other securities law or regulation. The Company shall not be required to deliver any shares upon exercise of this Option prior to (i) the admission of such shares to listing on any stock exchange or system on which the shares of Common Stock may then be listed, and (ii) the completion of such registration or other qualification of such shares under any state or Federal law, rule or regulation, as the Committee shall determine to be necessary or advisable.
4. Transferability of This Option. This Option may not be assigned, encumbered, or transferred except, (i) in the event of the death of the Optionee, by will or the laws of descent and distribution to the extent provided in Section 5 below, (ii) pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order (a "QDRO") as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") or Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA") or the rules thereunder or (iii) by the Optionee, by gift to any member of the Optionee's "immediate family" (as such term is defined in the Plan as in effect on the date of the grant of this Option) or to a trust for the benefit of one or more of such immediate family members. This Option is exercisable during the Optionee's lifetime only by the Optionee unless this Option is transferred as permitted by this Section 4.
In the event this Option is transferred as permitted by this Section 4, the person to whom this Option has been transferred (a "Transferee")may exercise this Option to the extent this Option would have been exercisable by the Optionee if the Option were not so transferred. The provisions of this Option shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto, the successors and assigns of the Company and any Transferee.
5. Termination of Service or Death of the Optionee. Except as hereinafter provided in this Section 5 and notwithstanding any other provision of this Option to the contrary, this Option shall not be exercisable unless the Optionee, at the time he or any Transferee exercises this Option, is then serving as a Director.
If the Optionee ceases service as a Director for any reason other than for Cause, the Optionee or any Transferee may, but only within the one year period following such cessation of service and in no event after the Expiration Date, exercise this Option to the extent the Optionee or Transferee was entitled to exercise this Option on the date of his cessation of service as a Director. If the Optionee is terminated for Cause, all rights under this Option shall expire immediately upon the giving to the Optionee of notice of such termination.

In the event of the death of the Optionee during the one year exercise period referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph, the person to whom the Option has been transferred pursuant to Section 4 of this Agreement (whether (i) by will or the laws of descent and distribution, if this Option was not transferred by the Optionee prior to the Optionee's death, (ii) pursuant to a QDRO, during the Optionee's lifetime, or (iii) by gift, during the Optionee's lifetime) may, but only to the extent the Optionee or such Transferee was entitled to exercise this Option immediately prior to the Optionee's death, exercise this Option at any time within one year following the death of the Optionee.
6. Adjustments for Changes in Capitalization of the Company.

7. Effect of Change in Control. Upon a "Change in Control" (as defined in the Plan as in effect on the date of the grant of this Option) this Option shall (to the extent it is not then exercisable) become exercisable in full; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 7 shall not be deemed to cause this Option to be exercisable to the extent it has previously been exercised or otherwise terminated.
