PLEDGE AGREEMENT

THIS PLEDGE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into effective as of the 19th day of November, 2008, by and between LANDMARK BANCORP, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Pledgor”), and FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF OMAHA, a national banking association (“FNB”).

WHEREAS, the Pledgor has entered into a Revolving Credit Agreement of even date herewith (as amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), with FNB, pursuant to which, among other things, Pledgor has undertaken certain covenants and has executed and delivered to FNB a Revolving Note of even date herewith payable to the order of FNB in the total principal amount of Nine Million and No/100ths Dollars ($9,000,000.00) (the “Note”), the proceeds of which may be drawn upon by the Pledgor for the purposes described in the Credit Agreement, in accordance with and subject to the terms and restrictions contained in the Credit Agreement; and

WHEREAS, Pledgor is the owner of one hundred percent (100%) of the outstanding Equity Interests of Landmark National Bank, a national banking association (“Landmark Bank”), consisting of Two Million (2,000,000) shares of common stock of Landmark Bank represented by stock certificate number(s) R3, as of the date hereof (the “Stock”); and

WHEREAS, under the Credit Agreement it is a condition precedent to FNB’s making of any disbursements or Loans to Pledgor that the Pledgor shall have executed and delivered this Agreement to FNB, securing the timely performance of all of the Obligations, as defined in the Credit Agreement, of the Pledgor under the Credit Agreement; and

WHEREAS, to secure the Obligations, Pledgor has agreed to pledge to FNB, the Stock and all after-acquired Equity Interests in Landmark Bank, including, without limitation, all rights in and to all profits, proceeds and distributions of every kind and nature whatsoever due to Pledgor with respect to such Stock, whether pursuant to the terms of the bylaws of Landmark Bank, a shareholder agreement or other similar agreement, or otherwise (collectively, the “Pledged Stock”); and

WHEREAS, in accordance with terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement and this Agreement, Pledgor shall (i) pledge to FNB all of its right, title and interest in and to any and all stock or other Equity Interests of Landmark Bank, including but not limited to the Pledged Stock, and (ii) deliver all certificates evidencing the Pledged Stock or other Equity Interests of Landmark Bank and any and all financing statements or other documents sufficient to create a valid and perfected first priority security interest in and to the Pledged Stock or other Equity Interests in favor of FNB as additional collateral to secure repayment of Pledgor’s Obligations under the Credit Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises set forth above, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, and in order to induce FNB to enter into the Credit Agreement and to make disbursements to Pledgor of Loans, the Pledgor hereby represents, warrants, covenants, and agrees with FNB, for FNB’s benefit, as follows:

1. Definitions: All capitalized terms used in this Agreement, including its preamble and recitals, that are not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Credit Agreement.

2. Security Interest: Pledgor hereby BARGAINS, SELLS, GRANTS, CONVEYS, TRANSFERS, PLEDGES, HYPOTHECATES, and ASSIGNS to FNB for its benefit, a first priority security interest (the “Security Interest”) in the Pledged Stock, together with all increases, replacements, additions and substitutions related thereto, all dividends, distributions, return of capital, cash, instruments and other property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of the Pledged Stock and all subscription warrants, rights or options issued thereon or with respect thereto, together with, and including, all rights of Pledgor pursuant to its bylaws, any shareholder agreement or other similar agreements of Landmark Bank (collectively, the “Pledge Agreement Collateral”), to secure the complete and timely payment, performance or discharge of (i) each of the obligations and covenants of Pledgor under this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the Note or the other Loan Documents, and all modifications, substitutions, extensions and renewals of each, whether absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, existing now or arising in the future and (ii) all present and future indebtedness and obligations of Pledgor to the Secured Parties whether direct, indirect, absolute, or contingent and whether arising by note, guaranty, overdraft, or otherwise (individually, an “Obligation” and collectively, the “Obligations”). The Security Interest shall be effective with respect to each item of Pledge Agreement Collateral for so long as any Obligation remains outstanding or FNB has any Commitment under the Credit Agreement, regardless of whether Pledgor becomes the owner of such Pledge Agreement Collateral prior to or contemporaneously with or subsequent to the incurring of such Obligation.

3. Priority of Security Interest; Financing Statements. Pledgor hereby acknowledges and agrees that so long as this Agreement remains in force and effect, the Security Interest granted hereunder to FNB shall be a first perfected security interest in the Pledge Agreement Collateral. Pledgor hereby irrevocably authorizes FNB at any time and from time to time to file in any Uniform Commercial Code jurisdiction any initial financing statements, amendments and continuations thereto, in the name of Pledgor and describing the Pledge Agreement Collateral.

4. Delivery of Security Collateral. Upon execution of this Agreement, all certificates or instruments representing or evidencing the Pledge Agreement Collateral shall be delivered by the Pledgor to FNB, held by FNB, in suitable form for transfer, and accompanied by a duly executed Collateral Stock Transfer and Assignment Power in the form set forth in Exhibit “A” attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference (the “Collateral Stock Transfer Power”). If, at any time, Pledgor subsequently obtains possession of any certificate(s) or instrument(s) constituting or representing any of the Pledge Agreement Collateral or any other Equity Interest in Landmark Bank, Pledgor shall deliver such certificate(s) or instrument(s) to FNB forthwith, together with a Collateral Stock Transfer Power duly executed by Pledgor, and the same shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Pledgor hereby irrevocably appoints FNB as Pledgor’s attorney-in-fact (such appointment being coupled with an interest), with power of substitution, and FNB shall have the right, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, as hereinafter defined, or event which, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, would become an Event of Default, at any time in its discretion and without notice to the Pledgor, to transfer to or to register in the name of FNB, or

any of its nominees, any or all of the Pledge Agreement Collateral, subject to the provisions of Section 9 of this Agreement.

5. Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Pledgor represents, warrants and covenants with FNB that:

a. The Pledged Stock constitutes all of Pledgor’s Equity Interest in Landmark Bank, and the Pledge Agreement Collateral is free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, security interests, adverse claims and restrictions of any nature (other than those created under the terms of this Agreement). This representation and warranty shall be deemed made with respect to each item of property that becomes Pledge Agreement Collateral after the date hereof;

b. Pledgor has obtained all consents or approvals, including but not limited to Governmental Authority consents or approvals, necessary to enter into, and effectuate the terms and provisions of this Agreement;

c. Pledgor shall, from and after the date hereof, (i) keep the Pledge Agreement Collateral free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, security interests and restrictions, except for the Security Interest and liens permitted under Section 6.01 of the Credit Agreement, and (ii) maintain and preserve the Security Interest and FNB’s first perfected priority security interest in the Pledge Agreement Collateral so long as this Agreement shall remain in effect; and

d. Following the date hereof, Pledgor will neither sell nor offer to sell nor otherwise transfer nor further pledge or encumber any portion of the Pledge Agreement Collateral (other than liens permitted under Section 6.01 of the Credit Agreement); nor will Pledgor enter into any agreement which relates to the voting of or restricts the transfer of any of the Pledge Agreement Collateral, without the prior written consent of FNB.

6. Distributions. So long as no Event of Default, or event which, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, would become an Event of Default, shall have occurred, the Pledgor shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all distributions and interest paid, if applicable, in respect of the Pledge Agreement Collateral, provided, however, that:

a. Pledgor shall not accept or receive any payments with respect to the Pledge Agreement Collateral other than (i) in cash, or (ii) stock splits or dividends relating to the Pledge Agreement Collateral, provided that upon any distribution permitted under this subsection (ii), such distribution shall become part of the Pledge Agreement Collateral, in accordance with, and subject to, the terms and provisions of this Agreement; or

b. Pledgor shall not accept or receive any payments of any kind in respect of Pledge Agreement Collateral or any part thereof, in connection with a partial or total liquidation or dissolution of Pledgor or Landmark Bank,

and in the event any payments, whether or not specifically permitted hereunder, described in items (a) through (b), including (i) and (ii) of item (a), are made, they shall be forthwith delivered to FNB to hold as part of the Pledge Agreement Collateral for the benefit of FNB and shall, if received by the Pledgor, be received in trust for the benefit of FNB, be segregated from the other property or funds of the Pledgor, and be forthwith delivered to FNB as part of the Pledge Agreement Collateral in the same form as so received (with any and all necessary endorsement or assignment).

7. Rights of Pledgor. Except as otherwise provided herein, during the period while this Agreement remains in force and as long as an Event of Default, or event which, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, would become an Event of Default, shall have not occurred, Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise all rights with respect to the Pledged Stock, subject to the Security Interest granted hereunder, including, but not limited to, the right to vote the Pledged Stock.

8. Events of Default. Each of the following occurrences shall constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement (herein called “Event of Default”):

a. The occurrence of an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents; and

b. Pledgor shall hypothecate, transfer or assign, or shall attempt to hypothecate, transfer or assign, the Pledge Agreement Collateral to any person or entity without FNB’s prior written consent.

9. Remedies Upon Event of Default. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and subject to the terms of this Agreement,

a. All rights of the Pledgor to exercise or refrain from exercising its voting rights which it would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 7 above and to receive the distributions and interest payments, if applicable, which it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to Section 6 shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in FNB who shall thereupon have the right to exercise or refrain from exercising such voting and other consensual rights and to receive and hold as Pledge Agreement Collateral such distributions and interest payments; and

b. All distributions and interest payments, if applicable, which are received by the Pledgor contrary to the provisions of paragraph a of this Section 9 shall be received in trust for the benefit of FNB, shall be segregated from other funds of the Pledgor and shall be forthwith paid over to FNB as Pledge Agreement Collateral in the same form as so received (with any and all necessary endorsement or assignment); and

c. FNB may, in connection with the exercise of its foreclosure rights under Applicable Law and to the extent permitted thereunder, as the attorney-in-fact for the Pledgor, transfer all of the Pledgor’s right, title and interest in and to the Pledged Stock to FNB thereby terminating any and all right, title and interest of Pledgor in or to Landmark Bank or any of its assets; and FNB may exercise and enforce any or all other rights and remedies available to FNB by law or agreement against the Pledge Agreement Collateral,

against Pledgor or against any other person or property; provided, however, that FNB shall give Pledgor not less than ten (10) days’ written notice of its intention to make any such public or private sale or at any broker’s board or on any securities exchange (with such notice to state the time and place of such sale) of the Pledged Stock.

10. Continuing Security Interest. This Agreement shall create a continuing Security Interest in the Pledge Agreement Collateral and shall remain in full force and effect until the complete discharge of all of the Pledgor’s Obligations under this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the Note and all other Loan Documents. Upon the discharge of all of Pledgor’s Obligations under this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the Note and all other Loan Documents, the Security Interest shall cease and terminate, the Pledge Agreement Collateral shall revert to the Pledgor, and FNB, at Pledgor’s expense, agrees to execute such documents as the Pledgor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.

11. Miscellaneous.

a. This Agreement may be waived, modified, amended, terminated or discharged, and the Security Interest may be released, only (i) upon complete discharge of Pledgor’s Obligations under the Credit Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents or (ii) explicitly in a writing signed by FNB and the Pledgor. A waiver signed by FNB shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose given.

b. No failure or delay on the part of FNB in exercising any right, power, or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise preclude the exercise or enforcement of any of FNB’s rights or remedies hereunder.

c. All rights and remedies of FNB shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly or concurrently, at FNB’s option, and the exercise or enforcement of any one such right or remedy shall neither be a condition to nor bar the exercise or enforcement of any other.

d. All notices to be given to Pledgor shall be deemed sufficiently given if delivered or mailed by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to Pledgor at its address as set forth in the Credit Agreement.

e. FNB shall not be obligated to preserve any rights Pledgor may have against any other parties, to exercise at all or in any particular manner any rights which may be available to FNB with respect to any Pledge Agreement Collateral, to realize on the Pledge Agreement Collateral at all or in any particular manner or order, or to apply any cash proceeds of Pledge Agreement Collateral in any particular order of application.

f. Pledgor will reimburse FNB for all expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses) incurred by FNB in the protection, defense or enforcement of the Security Interest, including expenses incurred in any litigation or bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings.

g. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Pledgor and FNB and their respective heirs, representatives, successors and assigns, provided, however, that the Pledgor may not assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder or to the Pledged Stock without the prior written consent of FNB, which consent may be withheld in FNB’s sole discretion.

h. This Agreement shall take effect when signed by Pledgor and delivered to FNB. Pledgor hereby waives notice of FNB’s acceptance hereof.

i. Time is an essential element to the performance of each of the terms of this Agreement.

j. All headings appearing in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall be disregarded in construing this Agreement. The recitals contained above and all documents referred to herein are incorporated herein by this reference.

k. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Nebraska without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Nebraska or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Nebraska (the “Governing Law”).

l. Pledgor submits to the jurisdiction of any federal court sitting in Omaha, Nebraska, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement and agrees that all claims in respect of the action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such court. Pledgor also agrees not to bring any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any other court. Pledgor waives any defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any action or proceeding so brought and waives any bond, surety, or other security that might be required of FNB. Pledgor agrees that a final judgment in any action or proceeding so brought shall be conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law or at equity. Pledgor hereby waives any rights it may have to transfer or change the venue of any suit, action or other proceeding brought against Pledgor by FNB in accordance with this paragraph or in connection with this Agreement.

m. PLEDGOR HEREBY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, CLAIM, OR COUNTERCLAIM, WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT, AT LAW OR IN EQUITY, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT. NO EMPLOYEE OF FNB HAS AUTHORITY TO WAIVE, CONDITION, OR MODIFY THE TERMS AND PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH OF THIS AGREEMENT.

n. If any provision or application of this Agreement is held unlawful or unenforceable in any respect, such illegality or unenforceability shall not affect other provisions or application which can be given effect, and this Agreement shall be construed as if the unlawful or unenforceable provision or application had never been contained herein or prescribed hereby.

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, LANDMARK BANCORP, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”), HEREBY PROMISES TO PAY to the order of FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF OMAHA (the “Lender”) in lawful money of the United States and in immediately available funds, the principal amount of Nine Million and No/100ths Dollars ($9,000,000.00) or, if less, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans made by the Lender to Borrower pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement, as hereinafter defined (the “Principal Amount”).

Borrower further promises to pay (a) the Principal Amount, (b) interest on the unpaid Principal Amount from the date advanced at the rates and times specified in the Credit Agreement and (c) fees, costs and expenses at such times and at such rates and amounts specified in the Credit Agreement; each without off-set, deduction or counterclaim, until such time as all of the foregoing are paid in full. The unpaid Principal Amount hereof, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and fees, shall be due and payable on the date that is the earliest to occur of the following: (a) November 19, 2009, (b) the date the Obligations are accelerated pursuant to the Credit Agreement or this Revolving Note and (c) the date the Lender has received indefeasible payment in full of the Obligations. All payments of the Principal Amount, interest, and fees, costs and expenses due and payable, when paid shall be made to the Lender at the Lender’s office in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

This Revolving Note is the Revolving Note referred to in the Revolving Credit Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by and between Borrower and the Lender (as amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), the terms and conditions of which are incorporated herein by this reference. This Revolving Note is entitled to the benefits set forth in the Loan Documents. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the terms of this Revolving Note and the Credit Agreement, the terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement shall govern.
