<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On July&nbsp;30, 2018, NorthWest Indiana Bancorp (&#147;<B><I>NWIN</I></B>&#148;) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the
&#147;<B><I>Merger Agreement</I></B>&#148;) with AJS Bancorp, Inc., a Maryland corporation (&#147;<B><I>AJSB</I></B>&#148;). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, AJSB will merge with and into NWIN, with NWIN as the surviving corporation (the
&#147;<B><I>Merger</I></B>&#148;). At a time to be determined at or following the Merger, A.J. Smith Federal Savings Bank, a federally chartered savings bank and wholly-owned subsidiary of AJSB (&#147;<B><I>AJS Bank</I></B>&#148;), will merge with
and into Peoples Bank SB, the wholly-owned Indiana state chartered savings bank subsidiary of NWIN (&#147;<B><I>Peoples Bank</I></B>&#148;), with Peoples Bank as the surviving bank. The Merger Agreement is attached as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current
Report on Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">8-K</FONT> and is incorporated herein by reference. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The boards of directors of each of
NWIN and AJSB have approved the Merger and the Merger Agreement. Subject to the approval of the Merger by AJSB&#146;s stockholders, regulatory approvals, and other customary closing conditions, the parties anticipate completing the Merger early in
the first quarter of 2019. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Upon completion of the Merger, each AJSB stockholder who holds 100 or more shares of AJSB common stock will
have the right to receive fixed consideration of (i) 0.2030 shares of NWIN common stock, and (ii) $7.20 per share in cash for each share of AJSB&#146;s common stock, subject to adjustment as set forth below (the &#147;<B><I>Merger
Consideration</I></B>&#148;).&nbsp;Stockholders holding less than 100&nbsp;shares of AJSB common stock will have the right to receive $16.00 in cash and no stock consideration for each share of AJSB common stock. All outstanding options to purchase
AJSB common stock, whether or not vested, will be converted into the right to receive at the effective time of the Merger, an amount of cash equal to $16.00 minus the per share exercise price for each share of AJSB common stock subject to an option,
less applicable tax withholdings. In addition, at the effective time of the merger, each award of AJSB restricted stock, whether or not vested, that is outstanding immediately prior to the effective time will fully vest and be cancelled and
converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, less applicable tax withholdings. Based on NWIN&#146;s closing stock price of $43.00 as of July&nbsp;30, 2018, the transaction has an implied valuation of approximately
$34.6&nbsp;million. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As described above in connection with the Merger Consideration, if the amount of the AJSB Adjusted Consolidated
Stockholders&#146; Equity (as defined in the Merger Agreement) is less than $29,450,000 as of the end of the month prior to the effective time of the Merger, after certain adjustments prescribed in the Merger Agreement have been made, then the cash
consideration will be reduced first followed, if necessary, by the stock consideration, in an amount determined pursuant to the formula set forth in the Merger Agreement, which corresponds to the amount by which the AJSB Adjusted Consolidated
Stockholders&#146; Equity is less than $29,450,000. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">All of the executive officers and members of the board of directors of AJSB, in their
capacity as stockholders, have entered into a voting agreement (the &#147;<B><I>Voting Agreement</I></B>&#148;) pursuant to which they have agreed to vote their shares of AJSB common stock in favor of the approval and adoption of the Merger
Agreement and the Merger. A copy of the Voting Agreement is attached to the Merger Agreement and is also included with this Current Report on <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Form&nbsp;8-K&nbsp;as</FONT> Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by reference
herein. In addition, pursuant to the Merger Agreement and subject to certain terms and conditions, the board of directors of AJSB has agreed to recommend the approval and adoption of the Merger Agreement and the Merger to the AJSB stockholders and
will solicit proxies voting in favor of the Merger Agreement and Merger from AJSB&#146;s stockholders. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Merger Agreement contains
representations, warranties, and covenants of AJSB and NWIN including, among others, covenants requiring AJSB (i)&nbsp;to conduct its business in the ordinary course during the period between the execution of the Merger Agreement and the effective
time of the Merger or the earlier termination of the Merger Agreement, and (ii)&nbsp;to refrain from engaging in certain kinds of transactions during such period. In addition, AJSB has agreed not to solicit proposals relating to alternative business
combination transactions or, subject to certain exceptions, enter into discussions or negotiations or provide confidential information in connection with any proposals for alternative business combinations. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Merger Agreement also provides certain termination rights for both NWIN and AJSB, and further provides that upon termination of the Merger
Agreement under certain circumstances, AJSB will be obligated to pay NWIN a termination fee of $1,557,000. Also, AJSB may terminate the Merger Agreement if, during the five business day period following the 15<SUP

immediately preceding 15 consecutive trading days is less than $34.37, and (ii)&nbsp;NWIN&#146;s share price declines by an amount that is at least 20% greater than the corresponding price decline in the SNL Small Cap U.S. Bank and Thrift Index.

(iv)&nbsp;the effectiveness of the registration statement to be filed by NWIN with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the &#147;<B><I>SEC</I></B>&#148;) with respect to the NWIN common stock to be issued in the Merger. In addition, each

<P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="center"><B><U>Signing of Definitive Merger Agreement </U></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Munster, Indiana and Midlothian, Illinois</B>&#151;NorthWest Indiana Bancorp (OTC Pink: NWIN) (&#147;NWIN&#148;), the parent of Peoples Bank SB, and AJS
Bancorp, Inc. (OTC Pink: AJSB) (&#147;AJSB&#148;) announced today they have executed a definitive merger agreement whereby NWIN will acquire AJSB and its wholly-owned subsidiary, A.J. Smith Federal Savings Bank, of Midlothian, Illinois, in a stock
and cash transaction. A copy of the definitive agreement is available as Exhibit 2.1 to the Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">8-K</FONT> filed by NWIN today with the Securities Exchange Commission (the &#147;SEC&#148;) at the SEC&#146;s internet
site (http://www.sec.gov). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under the terms of the merger agreement, stockholders of AJSB who hold 100 or more shares of AJSB common stock will receive
0.2030 shares of NWIN&#146;s common stock and $7.20 in cash for each issued and outstanding share of AJSB common stock, subject to possible adjustment, for total consideration that consists of approximately 55% stock and 45% cash. Stockholders of
AJSB holding less than 100&nbsp;shares of AJSB common stock will have the right to receive $16.00 in cash and no stock consideration for each share of AJSB common stock. Based on NWIN&#146;s closing stock price of $43.00 as of July&nbsp;30, 2018,
the merger consideration has an aggregate value of approximately $34.6 million, which represents approximately 109% of tangible book value, and which includes unallocated shares held by the AJSB Employee Stock Ownership Plan (&#147;ESOP&#148;), some
of which will be cancelled at closing in order to satisfy the ESOP&#146;s outstanding loan balance. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">AJSB is a savings and loan holding company
headquartered in Midlothian, Illinois with total consolidated assets of $191.8&nbsp;million as of June&nbsp;30, 2018. A. J. Smith Federal Savings Bank was established in 1924 and serves the Chicagoland metropolitan market with three full service
locations. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">&#147;We are excited about this deal, and it is a great strategic, financial, and cultural fit. A.J. Smith was founded on the same principles
as Peoples Bank &#150; to serve its community &#150; and this merger allows us to continue that tradition. It also grows our position in the South Suburban Chicagoland and Northwest Indiana markets as a locally managed, community focused financial
institution. I look forward to working with Jerry Weberling, chief executive officer and chief financial officer of A.J. Smith, along with our Bank&#146;s team to integrate the two companies and better serve our combined customers and
communities,&#148; said Benjamin Bochnowski, President and Chief Executive Officer. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">&#147;I am proud to announce the signing of a definitive agreement
for our second acquisition, in less than six months, in the Chicagoland market. Our strategic goal has been to build a physical presence in that market, and, upon completion, this acquisition will give us six full-service Banking Centers in South
Suburban Chicagoland. With 22 Banking Centers total, and $1.3 billion in assets, we will have the resources to fully serve our customers and deliver on our mission to help our customers and communities be more successful,&#148; said Bochnowski. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">&#147;We are excited about the opportunity to become part of the Peoples Bank family and believe this partnership
will be good for our customers, shareholders, employees and communities,&#148; said Jerry A. Weberling, AJSB&#146;s Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Financial Officer. &#147;Joining forces with Peoples Bank will greatly enhance our
product and service offerings and significantly expand our delivery channels. Our customers will benefit from Peoples Bank&#146;s broader suite of products and services, including expanded commercial lending, trust and wealth management, mobile
banking and mortgage banking services. The core values of both companies share a commitment to personal service, long-term relationships and community involvement.&#148; </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">NWIN expects the merger to be approximately $0.25 accretive to 2019 earnings per share (excluding <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">one-time</FONT> deal
related charges), approximately 0.8% dilutive to tangible book value at closing, and expects the tangible book value earnback to be approximately 2.2 years using the cross-over method. Upon closing of the transaction, both Peoples Bank and NWIN
expect to remain above well-capitalized standards on all regulatory capital ratios. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The merger is expected to be completed early in the first quarter of
2019, subject to approval by bank regulatory authorities and the shareholders of AJSB, as well as the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. Additionally, A.J. Smith Federal Savings Bank will be merged with and into Peoples Bank, and
the combined operations will be continued under the Peoples Bank name. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">NWIN was advised by Stephens Inc. and Barnes&nbsp;&amp; Thornburg LLP as legal
counsel. AJSB was advised by, and received a fairness opinion from, Keefe Bruyette&nbsp;&amp; Woods, and was advised by Luse Gorman, PC as legal counsel. </P>
