<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On August&nbsp;17, 2010 we entered into a Sales Agency Agreement with a Midwest investment banking
firm that specializes in the financial institutions industry. The Sales Agency Agreement provides
for the offer and sale for cash of any or all of 1.7&nbsp;million shares of our common stock at $18 per
share, for total gross proceeds of up to $30.6&nbsp;million. A commission of 5% is payable to the
investment banking firm for sale of the stock, except that no commission is payable for sales of up
to $5&nbsp;million to directors and officers and members of their family and a commission of 3% is
payable for sales to individuals designated by us. Unless the investment banking firm engages
other broker/dealers to assist with sales, the 5% commission declines to 4% for sales from $20
million to $25&nbsp;million and to 3% for sales exceeding $25&nbsp;million. The offering is scheduled to end
on October&nbsp;31, 2010, although we may extend the offering to November&nbsp;30, 2010. The purposes of the
offering include reducing debt and supporting subsidiary bank capital. The offering is a best
efforts offering made solely to accredited investors, a private offering exempt from registration
by Rule&nbsp;506 of Regulation&nbsp;D. The shares being offered and sold may not be offered or sold in the
United States without registration or an applicable exemption from registration.
