6.1 This Option is made and granted as a stand-alone award, separate and apart from, and outside of, the 1895 Bancorp of Wisconsin, Inc. 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), and shall not constitute an award granted under or pursuant to the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the terms, conditions and definitions set forth in the Plan shall apply to the Option as though the Option had been granted under the Plan and the Option shall be subject to such terms, conditions and definitions, which are hereby incorporated into this Agreement by reference. In the event of any inconsistency between the Plan and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, this Option is granted either by a majority of the Company’s independent directors or by the independent compensation committee of the Company’s board of directors within the meaning of NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605(a)(2).

6.2 Employment Inducement Grant. This Option is intended to constitute an “employment inducement grant” under NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(c)(4), and consequently is intended to be exempt from the NASDAQ rules regarding stockholder approval of equity compensation plans. This Agreement and the terms and conditions of this Option shall be interpreted in accordance with and consistent with such exemption.

7. Vesting Schedule.  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, this Option first becomes exercisable, subject to the Option’s expiration date, in accordance with the vesting schedule specified herein.

This Option may not be exercised at any time on or after the Option’s Expiration Date. Vesting will automatically accelerate (in the event of death or Disability or Involuntary Termination at or following a Change in Control)

8. Exercise Procedure.

* If I elect to exercise by xxxxxxxxxx shares I already own, I will constructively return shares that I already own to purchase the new option shares.  If my shares are in certificate form, I must attach a separate statement indicating the certificate number of the shares I am treating as having exchanged.  If the shares are held in “street name” by a registered broker, I must provide the Company with a notarized statement attesting to the number of shares owned that will be treated as having been exchanged.  I will keep the shares that I already own and treat them as if they are shares acquired by the option exercise.  In addition, I will receive additional shares equal to the difference between the shares I constructively exchange and the total new option shares that I acquire.
