AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

This Agreement and Plan of Merger (this “Agreement”) is dated as of November 19, 2019, by and between Bank First Corporation, a Wisconsin corporation (“BFC”), and Tomah Bancshares, Inc., a Wisconsin corporation (“TB” and, together with BFC, the “Parties” and each a “Party”).

W I T N E S S E T H

WHEREAS, the boards of directors of the Parties have determined that it is in the best interests of their respective companies and their respective shareholders to consummate the business combination transaction provided for in this Agreement in which TB will, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, merge with and into BFC (the “Merger”), with BFC as the surviving company in the Merger (sometimes referred to in such capacity as the “Surviving Entity”);

WHEREAS, as a condition to the willingness of BFC to enter into this Agreement, certain directors and certain shareholders of TB have entered into, simultaneously with the Parties’ execution of this Agreement, voting agreements with BFC (each a “Voting Agreement” and collectively, the “Voting Agreements”), substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, pursuant to which each such director or shareholder has agreed, among other things, to vote the TB Common Stock owned by such director or shareholder in favor of the approval of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, subject to the terms of the Voting Agreements;

WHEREAS, the Parties desire to make certain representations, warranties and agreements in connection with the Merger and also to prescribe certain conditions to the Merger; and

WHEREAS, for federal income tax purposes, it is intended that the Merger qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the Regulations promulgated thereunder, and this Agreement is intended to be and is adopted as a “plan of reorganization” for purposes of Sections 354 and 361 of the Code.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises herein contained and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

Article I

THE MERGER

Section 1.01 The Merger.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, in accordance with the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law (the “WBCL”), at the Effective Time, TB shall merge with and into BFC pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. BFC shall be the Surviving Entity in the Merger and shall continue its existence as a corporation under the laws of the State of Wisconsin. As of the Effective Time, the separate corporate existence of TB shall cease.

Section 1.02 Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws.

At the Effective Time, the articles of incorporation of BFC in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the articles of incorporation of the Surviving Entity until thereafter amended in accordance with applicable Law and the terms of such articles of incorporation. The bylaws of BFC in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Entity until thereafter amended in accordance with applicable Law and the terms of such bylaws.

Section 1.03 Bank Merger.

It is the Parties’ intention that, immediately following the Effective Time and sequentially but in effect simultaneously on the Closing Date, Timberwood Bank, a Wisconsin state-chartered bank and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of TB (“Timberwood Bank”), shall be merged (the “Bank Merger”) with and into Bank First, N.A., a national banking association and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of BFC (“Bank First”), in accordance with the provisions of applicable federal and state banking laws and regulations, and Bank First shall be the surviving bank (the “Surviving Bank”). Once consummated, the Bank Merger shall have the effects as set forth under applicable federal and state banking laws and regulations, and the respective board of directors of TB and BFC shall cause the board of directors of Bank First and Timberwood Bank, respectively, to approve a separate merger agreement (the “Bank Plan of Merger”) in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, and cause the Bank Plan of Merger to be executed and delivered as soon as practicable following the date of this Agreement. Each of BFC and TB shall also approve the Bank Plan of Merger in their capacities as sole shareholders of Bank First and Timberwood Bank, respectively. As provided in the Bank Plan of Merger, the Bank Merger may be abandoned at the election of Bank First at any time, whether before or after filings are made for regulatory approval of the Bank Merger, but if the Bank Merger is abandoned for any reason, Timberwood Bank shall continue to operate under its name; provided that prior to any such election, BFC shall (a) reasonably consult with TB and its regulatory counsel and (b) reasonably determine in good faith that such election will not, and would not reasonably be expected to, prevent, delay or impair any Party’s ability to consummate the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 1.04 Effective Time; Closing.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Parties will make all such filings as may be required to consummate the Merger and the Bank Merger by applicable Laws. The Merger shall become effective as set forth in the articles of merger (the “Articles of Merger”) related to the Merger, which will include the plan of merger (the “Plan of Merger”), that shall be filed with the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions – Division of Corporate and Consumer Services, as provided in the WBCL, on the Closing Date. The Merger shall become effective on the later of (i) the date and time of filing of the Articles of Merger, or (ii) the date and time when the Merger becomes effective as set forth in the Articles of Merger, which shall be no later than three (3) Business Days after all of the conditions to the Closing set forth in Article VI (other than conditions to be satisfied at the Closing, which shall be satisfied or waived at the Closing) have been satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, or such other date and time as the Parties may mutually agree (the “Effective Time”).

(b) The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place beginning immediately prior to the Effective Time (such date, the “Closing Date”) at the offices of Barack Ferrazzano Kirschbaum & Nagelberg LLP, 200 W. Madison St. Suite 3900, Chicago, Illinois 60606, or such other place as the Parties may mutually agree. At the Closing, there shall be delivered to BFC and TB the Articles of Merger and such other certificates and other documents required to be delivered under Article VI.

Section 1.05 Reservation of Right to Revise Structure.

BFC may at any time and without the approval of TB change the method of effecting the business combination contemplated by this Agreement if and to the extent that it reasonably deems such a change to be necessary; provided, however, that no such change shall (i) alter or change the amount of the consideration to be issued to (A) Holders as Per Share Stock Consideration or (B) holders of TB Options as currently contemplated in this Agreement, (ii) reasonably be expected to materially impede or delay consummation of the Merger, (iii) adversely affect the federal income tax treatment of Holders in connection with the Merger, or (iv) require submission to or approval of TB’s shareholders after the plan of merger set forth in this Agreement has been approved by TB’s shareholders. In the event that BFC elects to make such a change, the Parties agree to cooperate to execute appropriate documents to reflect the change.

Article II

MERGER CONSIDERATION; EXCHANGE PROCEDURES

Section 2.01 Merger Consideration.

Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, automatically by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Parties or any shareholder of TB:

(a) Each share of BFC Common Stock that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain outstanding following the Effective Time and shall be unchanged by the Merger.

(b) Each share of TB Common Stock owned directly by BFC, TB or any of their respective Subsidiaries (other than shares in trust accounts, managed accounts and the like for the benefit of customers or shares held as collateral for outstanding debt previously contracted) immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and retired at the Effective Time without any conversion thereof, and no payment shall be made with respect thereto (the “TB Cancelled Shares”).

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, all shares of TB Common Stock that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and which are held by a shareholder who did not vote in favor of the Merger (or consent thereto in writing) and who is entitled to demand and properly demands the fair value of such shares pursuant to, and who complies in all respects with, the provisions of Subchapter 13 of the WBCL, shall not be converted into or be exchangeable for the right to receive the Per Share Stock Consideration (the “Dissenting Shares”). The holder of such Dissenting Shares (hereinafter called a “Dissenting Shareholder”) instead shall be entitled to payment of the fair value of such shares in accordance with the applicable provisions of the WBCL and at the Effective Time, such Dissenting Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist and such Holder shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the rights provided for pursuant to the applicable provisions of the WBCL and this Section 2.01(c), unless and until such Dissenting Shareholder shall have failed to perfect such Holder’s right to receive, or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost rights to demand or receive, the fair value of such shares of TB Common Stock under the applicable provisions of the WBCL. If any Dissenting Shareholder shall fail to perfect or effectively withdraw or lose such Holder’s dissenter’s rights under the applicable provisions of the WBCL, each such Dissenting Share shall be deemed to have been converted into and to have become exchangeable for, the right to receive the Per Share Stock Consideration, without any interest thereon, in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement. TB shall give BFC (i) prompt notice of any written notices to exercise dissenters’ rights in respect of any shares of TB Common Stock, attempted withdrawals of such notices and any other instruments served pursuant to the WBCL and received by TB relating to dissenters’ rights and (ii) the opportunity to participate in negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for fair value under the WBCL. TB shall not, except with the prior written consent of BFC, voluntarily make any payment with respect to, or settle, or offer or agree to settle, any such demand for payment.

(d) At the Effective Time, each share of TB Common Stock (excluding Dissenting Shares and TB Cancelled Shares) issued and outstanding at the Effective Time shall cease to be outstanding and shall be converted, in accordance with the terms of this Article II, into and exchanged for the right to receive the Per Share Stock Consideration.

(e) Certain Definitions.

(i) “Per Share Stock Consideration” shall mean, with respect to each Holder, the following:

(1) If the BFC Common Stock Price (as defined below) is greater than $44.40 and less than $66.60, the Per Share Stock Consideration shall be 5.1445 shares of BFC Common Stock;

(2) If the BFC Common Stock Price is greater than or equal to $66.60, the Per Share Stock Consideration shall be the number of shares of BFC Common Stock equal to the quotient (rounded up to the nearest ten thousandth) obtained by dividing $342.62 by the BFC Common Stock Price; or

(3) If the BFC Common Stock Price is less than or equal to $44.40, the Per Share Stock Consideration shall be the number of shares of BFC Common Stock equal to the quotient (rounded up to the nearest ten thousandth) obtained by dividing $228.42 by the BFC Common Stock Price.

(ii) “BFC Common Stock Price” shall mean the mathematical average, calculated for the twenty (20) trading-day period ending on the fifth (5^th) trading day preceding the Closing Date, of the volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) of a share of BFC Common Stock for each trading day during such period as displayed under the heading “Bloomberg VWAP” on the Bloomberg Page for BFC (or its equivalent successor page if such page is not available). If the Bloomberg Page or the Bloomberg VWAP is not available for a trading day, “VWAP” shall mean the volume-weighted average price of a share of BFC Common Stock for such trading day, as determined by a nationally recognized investment banking firm retained by BFC based on available trading information for shares of BFC Common Stock.

Section 2.02 TB Options.

(a) At the Effective Time, each option to purchase TB Common Stock (each a “TB Option”), whether vested or unvested, that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and the holder thereof (each a “TB Option Holder”) shall be entitled to receive the Per Share Stock Consideration such TB Option Holder would have been entitled to had such TB Option Holder exercised his, her or its TB Options prior to the Effective Time, less the number of shares of TB Common Stock with an equivalent value to the exercise price and applicable withholding taxes resulting from such exercise. In connection with such cancellation, BFC shall deposit cash equal to the applicable withholding taxes to the appropriate taxing authorities, through the payroll system applicable to the TB Option Holder immediately prior to or at the Effective Time.

(b) Prior to the Effective Time, the board of directors of TB (or, if appropriate, any committee thereof administering the TB Options) shall adopt such resolutions or take such other actions, including obtaining any necessary consents or amendments to the applicable option agreements, as may be required to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.02.

Section 2.03 Rights as Shareholders; Stock Transfers.

At the Effective Time, all shares of TB Common Stock, when converted in accordance with Section 2.01, shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each Certificate or Book-Entry Share previously evidencing such shares shall thereafter represent only the right to receive for each such share of TB Common Stock, the Per Share Stock Consideration and any cash in lieu of fractional shares of BFC Common Stock in accordance with this Article II. At the Effective Time, holders of TB Common Stock shall cease to be, and shall have no rights as, shareholders of TB, other than the right to receive the Per Share Stock Consideration and cash in lieu of fractional shares of BFC Common Stock as provided under this Article II. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of TB shall be closed, and there shall be no registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of TB of shares of TB Common Stock.

Section 2.04 Fractional Shares.

Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, no fractional shares of BFC Common Stock and no certificates or scrip therefor, or other evidence of ownership thereof, will be issued in the Merger. In lieu thereof, BFC shall pay or cause to be paid to each Holder who would be entitled to a fractional share of BFC Common Stock, rounded to the nearest one hundredth of a share, an amount of cash (without interest and rounded to the nearest whole cent) determined by multiplying the BFC Common Stock Price by the fractional share of BFC Common Stock to which such Holder would otherwise be entitled.

Section 2.05 Plan of Reorganization.

It is intended that the Merger and the Bank Merger shall each qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, and that this Agreement shall constitute a “plan of reorganization” as that term is used in Sections 354 and 361 of the Code.

Section 2.06 Exchange Procedures.

BFC shall cause as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, but in no event later than five (5) Business Days after the Closing Date, the Exchange Agent to mail or otherwise caused to be delivered to each Holder who has not previously surrendered such Certificate or Certificates or Book Entry Shares, appropriate and customary transmittal materials, which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent, as well as instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares in exchange for the Per Share Stock Consideration (including cash in lieu of fractional shares) as provided for in this Agreement (the “Letter of Transmittal”).

Section 2.07 Deposit and Delivery of Per Share Stock Consideration.

(a) Prior to the Effective Time, BFC shall (i) deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent stock certificates representing the number of shares of BFC Common Stock sufficient to deliver the Per Share Stock Consideration (together with, to the extent then determinable, any cash payable in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section 2.04) (collectively, the “Exchange Fund”), and (ii) instruct the Exchange Agent to pay such Per Share Stock Consideration and cash in lieu of fractional shares in accordance with this Agreement as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time and conditioned upon receipt of a properly completed Letter of Transmittal. The Exchange Agent and BFC, as the case may be, shall not be obligated to deliver the Per Share Stock Consideration to a Holder to which such Holder would otherwise be entitled as a result of the Merger until such Holder surrenders the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares representing the shares of TB Common Stock for exchange as provided in this Article II, or, an appropriate affidavit of loss and indemnity agreement and/or a bond in such amount as may be reasonably required in each case by BFC or the Exchange Agent.

(b) Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains unclaimed by the shareholders of TB for one (1) year after the Effective Time (as well as any interest or proceeds from any investment thereof) shall be delivered by the Exchange Agent to BFC. Any shareholders of TB who have not theretofore complied with this Section 2.07 shall thereafter look only to BFC for the Per Share Stock Consideration, any cash in lieu of fractional shares of BFC Common Stock to be issued or paid in consideration therefor, and any dividends or distributions to which such Holder is entitled in respect of each share of TB Common Stock such shareholder held immediately prior to the Effective Time, as determined pursuant to this Agreement, in each case without any interest thereon. If outstanding Certificates or Book-Entry Shares for shares of TB Common Stock are not surrendered or the payment for them is not claimed prior to the date on which such shares of BFC Common Stock or cash would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any governmental unit or agency, the unclaimed items shall, to the extent permitted by the law of abandoned property and any other applicable Law, become the property of BFC (and to the extent not in its possession shall be delivered to it), free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled to such property. Neither the Exchange Agent nor any Party shall be liable to any Holder represented by any Certificate or Book-Entry Share for any amounts delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws. BFC and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to rely upon the stock transfer books of TB to establish the identity of those Persons entitled to receive the Per Share Stock Consideration specified in this Agreement, which books shall be conclusive with respect thereto. In the event of a dispute with respect to ownership of any shares of TB Common Stock represented by any Certificate or Book-Entry Share, BFC and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to tender to the custody of any court of competent jurisdiction any Per Share Stock Consideration represented by such Certificate or Book-Entry Share and file legal proceedings interpleading all parties to such dispute, and will thereafter be relieved with respect to any claims thereto.

(c) BFC or the Exchange Agent, as applicable, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any Holder such amounts as BFC is required to deduct and withhold under applicable Law. Any amounts so deducted and withheld shall be remitted to the appropriate Governmental Authority and upon such remittance shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Holder in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by BFC or the Exchange Agent, as applicable.

Section 2.08 Rights of Certificate Holders after the Effective Time.

(a) All shares of BFC Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the Merger shall be deemed issued and outstanding as of the Effective Time and if ever a dividend or other distribution is declared by BFC in respect of the BFC Common Stock, the record date for which is at or after the Effective Time, that declaration shall include dividends or other distributions in respect of all shares of BFC Common Stock issuable pursuant to this Agreement. No dividends or other distributions in respect of the BFC Common Stock shall be paid to any Holder of any unsurrendered Certificate or Book-Entry Share until such Certificate or Book-Entry Share is surrendered for exchange in accordance with this Article II. Subject to the effect of applicable Laws, following surrender of any such Certificate or Book-Entry Share, there shall be issued and/or paid to the Holder of such Certificate or Book Entry Share the number of whole shares of BFC Common Stock such Holder would have been entitled to receive at the Effective Time in exchange therefor pursuant to Section 2.01, and without interest, (i) at the time of such surrender, the dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore payable with respect to such whole shares of BFC Common Stock and not paid; (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the dividends or other distributions payable with respect to such whole shares of BFC Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time but with a payment date subsequent to surrender; and (iii) any cash in lieu of fractional shares such Holder is entitled to pursuant to Section 2.04.

(b) In the event of a transfer of ownership of a Certificate representing TB Common Stock that is not registered in the stock transfer records of TB, the proper amount of cash and/or shares of BFC Common Stock shall be paid or issued in exchange therefor to a person other than the person in whose name the Certificate so surrendered is registered if the Certificate formerly representing such TB Common Stock shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and the person requesting such payment or issuance shall pay any transfer or other similar Taxes required by reason of the payment or issuance to a person other than the registered Holder of the Certificate or establish to the satisfaction of BFC that the Tax has been paid or is not applicable.

Section 2.09 Anti-Dilution Provisions.

If the number of shares of BFC Common Stock or TB Common Stock issued and outstanding prior to the Effective Time shall be increased or decreased, or changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or securities, in any such case as a result of a stock split, reverse stock split, stock combination, stock dividend, recapitalization, reclassification, reorganization or similar transaction, or there shall be any extraordinary dividend or distribution with respect to such stock, and the record date therefor shall be prior to the Effective Time, an appropriate and proportionate adjustment shall be made to the Per Share Stock Consideration to give Holders the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event.

Article III

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF TB

Except as set forth in the disclosure schedules delivered by TB to BFC prior to or concurrently with the execution of this Agreement (the “TB Disclosure Schedules”); provided that (a) the mere inclusion of a disclosure on the TB Disclosure Schedules as an exception to a representation or warranty shall not be deemed an admission by TB that such disclosure represents a material exception or fact, event or circumstance or that such disclosure is reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect on TB and (b) any disclosures made with respect to a section of this Agreement shall be deemed to qualify (1) any other section of this Article III specifically referenced or cross-referenced and (2) any other section of this Article III to the extent it is reasonably apparent on its face (notwithstanding the absence of a specific cross reference) from a reading of the disclosure that such disclosure applies to such other section(s), TB hereby represents and warrants to BFC as follows:

Section 3.01 Organization and Standing.

Each of TB and its Subsidiaries is (a) an entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation and (b) is duly licensed or qualified to do business and in good standing in each jurisdiction where its ownership or leasing of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so licensed or qualified has not had, and is not reasonably likely to have, a Material Adverse Effect with respect to TB or its Subsidiaries. A complete and accurate list of all such jurisdictions described in (a) and (b) is set forth on Schedule 3.01. TB is regulated as a bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended.

Section 3.02 Capital Stock.

(a) The authorized capital stock of TB consists of 250,000 shares of TB Common Stock. As of the date hereof, there are 108,820 shares of TB Common Stock issued and outstanding. As of the date hereof, there are TB Options to acquire 9,000 shares of TB Common Stock outstanding. There are no shares of TB Common Stock held by any of TB’s Subsidiaries. Schedule 3.02(a) sets forth, as of the date hereof, the name and address, as reflected on the books and records of TB, of each Holder, and the number of shares of TB Common Stock held by each such Holder. The issued and outstanding shares of TB Common Stock are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, non-assessable and have not been issued in violation of nor are they subject to preemptive rights of any Holder. All shares of TB Common Stock issued and outstanding have been issued in compliance with and not in violation of any applicable federal or state securities Laws.

(b) Schedule 3.02(b) sets forth, as of the date hereof, for each grant or award of TB Options, the (i) name of the grantee, (ii) date of the grant, (iii) expiration date, (iv) vesting schedule, (v) number of shares of TB Common Stock, or any other security of TB, subject to such award, (vi) number of shares subject to such award that are exercisable or have vested as of the date of this Agreement, and (vii) name of the TB Stock Plan under which such award was granted, if applicable. Each TB Option complies with or is exempt from Section 409A of the Code and qualifies for the tax treatment afforded thereto in TB’s Tax Returns.

Neither TB nor any of its Subsidiaries has ever sponsored, maintained or participated in a multiple employer welfare arrangement as defined in ERISA Section 3(40) or a multiple employer plan, meaning a plan sponsored by two or more unrelated employers as described in Code Section 413(c).

Section 4.05 SEC Documents; Financial Statements.

(a) BFC has filed all required reports, forms, schedules, registration statements and other documents with the SEC that it has been required to file since October 23, 2018 (the “BFC Reports”), and has paid all fees and assessments due and payable in connection therewith. As of their respective dates of filing with the SEC (or, if amended or superseded by a subsequent filing prior to the date hereof, as of the date of such subsequent filing), the BFC Reports complied as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, as the case may be, and the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder applicable to such BFC Reports, and none of the BFC Reports when filed with the SEC, or if amended prior to the date hereof, as of the date of such amendment, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. As of the date of this Agreement, no executive officer of BFC has failed in any respect to make the certifications required of him or her under Section 302 or 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. As of the date of this Agreement, there are no outstanding comments from or unresolved issues raised by the SEC with respect to any of the BFC Reports.

(b) The consolidated financial statements of BFC included (or incorporated by reference) in the BFC Reports (including the related notes, where applicable) complied as to form, as of their respective dates of filing with the SEC (or, if amended or superseded by a subsequent filing prior to the date hereof, as of the date of such subsequent filing), in all material respects, with all applicable accounting requirements and with the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto (except, in the case of unaudited statements, as permitted by the rules of the SEC), have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (except as may be disclosed therein), and fairly present, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of BFC and its Subsidiaries and the consolidated results of operations, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows of such companies as of the dates and for the periods shown. The books and records of BFC and its Subsidiaries have been, and are being, maintained in accordance with GAAP and any other applicable legal and accounting requirements, reflect only actual transactions and there are no material misstatements, omissions, inaccuracies or discrepancies contained or reflected therein.

(c) BFC (x) has established and maintained disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting (as such terms are defined in paragraphs (e) and (f), respectively, of Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act) as required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, and (y) has disclosed, based on its most recent evaluation, to its outside auditors and the audit committee of BFC’s board of directors (A) all significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) which are reasonably likely to adversely affect BFC’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data and (B) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in BFC’s internal control over financial reporting. These disclosures were made in writing by management to BFC’s auditors and audit committee. There is no reason to believe that BFC’s outside auditors and its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer will not be able to give the certifications and attestations required pursuant to the rules and regulations adopted pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, without qualification, when next due.

(d) Since January 1, 2016, neither BFC nor any of its Subsidiaries nor, to BFC’s Knowledge, any director, officer, employee, auditor, accountant or representative of BFC or any of its Subsidiaries has received, or otherwise had or obtained Knowledge of, any material complaint, allegation, assertion or claim regarding the accounting or auditing practices, procedures, methodologies or methods of BFC or any of its Subsidiaries or their respective internal accounting controls, including any material complaint, allegation, assertion or claim that BFC or any of its Subsidiaries has engaged in questionable accounting or auditing practices.

Section 4.06 Regulatory Reports.

Since January 1, 2016, BFC and each of its Subsidiaries has timely filed with the SEC, FRB, OCC, FDIC, any SRO and any other applicable Governmental Authority, in correct form, all reports, registration statements and other documents required to be filed under applicable Laws and regulations and have paid all fees and assessments due and payable in connection therewith, and such reports were complete and accurate and in compliance in all material respects with the requirements of applicable Laws and regulations, except where the failure to file such report or statement or to pay such fees and assessments, either individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be likely to have a Material Adverse Effect with respect to BFC. Other than normal examinations conducted by a Governmental Authority in the Ordinary Course of Business, no Governmental Authority has notified BFC or any of its Subsidiaries that it has initiated any proceeding or, to the Knowledge of BFC, threatened an investigation into the business or operations of BFC or any of its Subsidiaries since January 1, 2016. There is no material and unresolved violation, criticism or exception by any Governmental Authority with respect to any report or statement relating to any examinations or inspections of BFC or any of its Subsidiaries.

No consents or approvals of, or waivers by, or filings or registrations with, any Governmental Authority are required to be made or obtained by BFC or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by BFC of this Agreement or to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Bank Merger, except for (i) the Regulatory Approvals, (ii) the filing with the SEC and the filing and declaration of effectiveness of the Registration Statement, (iii) the filing of the Articles of Merger contemplated by Section 1.04(a) and the filing of documents with the FDIC, OCC, the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions – Division of Banking or other applicable state banking agencies to cause the Bank Merger to become effective, (iv) such other filings and reports as required pursuant to the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, or applicable stock exchange requirements, (v) any consents, authorizations, approvals, filings or exemptions in connection with compliance with the rules and regulations of any applicable SRO and the rules of the NASDAQ and (vi) such filings and approvals as are required to be made or obtained under the securities or “Blue Sky” laws of various states in connection with the issuance of the shares of BFC Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement and approval of listing of such BFC Common Stock on the NASDAQ. Subject to the receipt of the approvals referred to in the preceding sentence, the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby by BFC do not and will not, (1) constitute a breach or violation of, or a default under, the articles of incorporation, bylaws or similar governing documents of BFC or any of its respective Subsidiaries, (2) violate any statute, code, ordinance, rule, regulation, judgment, order, writ, decree or injunction applicable to BFC or any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective properties or assets, (3) contravene, conflict with or result in the violation or breach of any provision of, or give any Person the right to declare a default or exercise any remedy under, or to accelerate the maturity or performance of, or to cancel, terminate or modify, or which would result in the creation of any material Lien upon, or with respect to any of the assets owned or used by BFC or its Subsidiaries under, any material contract, except (in the case of clause (3)) for such contraventions, conflicts, breaches or defaults that, either individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on BFC or any of its Subsidiaries, or (4) require the consent or approval of any third party or Governmental Authority under any such Law, rule or regulation or any judgment, decree, order, permit, license, credit agreement, indenture, loan, note, bond, mortgage, reciprocal easement agreement, lease, instrument, concession, contract, franchise, agreement or other instrument or obligation that would have a material impact on BFC or result in a material financial penalty. As of the date hereof, BFC has no Knowledge of any reason (i) why the Regulatory Approvals and other necessary consents and approvals will not be received in order to permit consummation of the Merger and Bank Merger on a timely basis and (ii) why a Burdensome Condition would be imposed.

Section 4.08 BFC Information.

The information relating to BFC and its Subsidiaries that is supplied by or on behalf of BFC for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Proxy Statement-Prospectus and the Registration Statement will not (with respect to the Proxy Statement-Prospectus, as of the date the Proxy Statement-Prospectus is first mailed to TB shareholders and as of the date of the TB Meeting, and with respect to the Registration Statement, as of the time the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto is declared effective under the Securities Act) contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they are made, not misleading; provided, however, that any information contained in any BFC Report as of a later date shall be deemed to modify information as of an earlier date. The portions of the Proxy Statement-Prospectus relating to BFC and BFC’s Subsidiaries and other portions thereof within the reasonable control of BFC and its Subsidiaries will comply as to form in all material respects with the provisions of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder.

All such permits, licenses, certificates of authority, orders and approvals are in full force and effect and, to BFC’s Knowledge, no suspension or cancellation of any of them is threatened.

(c) Neither BFC nor any of its Subsidiaries has received, since January 1, 2016, written or, to BFC’s Knowledge, oral notification from any Governmental Authority (i) asserting that it is not in compliance with any of the Laws which such Governmental Authority enforces or (ii) threatening to revoke any license, franchise, permit or governmental authorization, except where such noncompliance of threatened revocation is not reasonably likely to have, a Material Adverse Effect with respect to BFC.

The deposits of Bank First are insured by the FDIC in accordance with FDIA to the fullest extent permitted by Law, and Bank First has paid all premiums and assessments and filed all reports required by the FDIA. No proceedings for the revocation or termination of such deposit insurance are pending or, to BFC’s Knowledge, threatened.

Section 4.12 Agreements with Regulatory Agencies.

Neither BFC nor any of its Subsidiaries is subject to any cease-and-desist or other order issued by, or is a party to any written agreement, consent agreement or memorandum of understanding with, or is a party to any commitment letter or similar undertaking to, or is a recipient of any extraordinary supervisory letter from, or is subject to any order or directive by, or has adopted any board resolutions at the request of any Governmental Authority (each a “BFC Regulatory Agreement”) that restricts, or by its terms will in the future restrict, the conduct of BFC’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ business or that in any manner relates to their capital adequacy, credit or risk management policies, dividend policies, management, business or operations, nor has BFC or any of its Subsidiaries been advised by any Governmental Authority that it is considering issuing, initiating, ordering, requesting, recommending, or otherwise proceeding with (or is considering the appropriateness of any of the aforementioned actions) any BFC Regulatory Agreement. To BFC’s Knowledge, there are no investigations relating to any regulatory matters pending before any Governmental Authority with respect to BFC or any of its Subsidiaries.

Section 4.13 Brokers.

Neither BFC nor any of its officers, directors or any of its Subsidiaries has employed any broker or finder or incurred, nor will it incur, any liability for any broker’s fees, commissions or finder’s fees in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except that BFC has engaged, and will pay a fee or commission to Sandler O’Neill & Partners, L.P.

Section 4.14 Legal Proceedings.

(a) Neither BFC nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to any, and there are no pending or, to BFC’s Knowledge, threatened, legal, administrative, arbitral or other proceedings, claims, actions or governmental or regulatory investigations of any nature against BFC or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their current or former directors or executive officers in their capacities as such that is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect on BFC, or challenging the validity or propriety of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b) There is no material injunction, order, judgment, decree or regulatory restriction (other than regulatory restrictions of general application to banks and bank holding companies) imposed upon BFC, any of its Subsidiaries or the assets of BFC or any of its Subsidiaries (or that, upon consummation of the Merger or the Bank Merger would apply to the Surviving Entity or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliates).

All such Tax Returns were correct and complete in all material respects and have been prepared in substantial compliance with all applicable Laws. All material Taxes due and owing by BFC or any of its Subsidiaries (whether or not shown on any Tax Return) have been paid. Since January 1, 2016, neither BFC nor any of its Subsidiaries has received written notice of any claim by any Governmental Authority in a jurisdiction where BFC or such Subsidiary does not file Tax Returns that it is or may be subject to Taxes by that jurisdiction.

Section 4.16 Approval Delays.

To the Knowledge of BFC, there is no reason why the granting of any of the Regulatory Approvals would be denied or unduly delayed. Bank First’s most recent rating under the CRA was “satisfactory” or better.

Section 4.17 No Financing.

BFC has and will have as of the Effective Time, without having to resort to external sources, sufficient capital to effect the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

From the date hereof until the Effective Time, BFC shall not and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to take any action or knowingly fail to take any action not contemplated by this Agreement that is intended or is reasonably likely to (i) prevent, delay or impair BFC’s ability to consummate the Merger or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) agree to take, make any commitment to take, or adopt any resolutions of its board of directors in support of, any of the actions prohibited by this Section 5.02. Except as expressly permitted or contemplated by this Agreement, or as required by applicable law or a Governmental Authority, or with the prior written consent of TB during the period from the date of this Agreement to the Effective Time, BFC shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to:

(i) Take any action that is intended or is reasonably likely to result in the Merger or the Bank Merger failing to qualify as a "reorganization" under Section 368(a) of the Code;

(ii) Take any action that is likely to materially impair BFC’s ability to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement or Bank First to perform any of its obligations under the Bank Plan of Merger; or

(iii) Agree or commit to do any of the foregoing.

Section 5.03 Commercially Reasonable Efforts.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of the Parties agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts in good faith to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws, so as to permit consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby as promptly as practicable, including the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Article VI, and shall reasonably cooperate with the other Party to that end.

Section 5.04 Title to Real Estate.

(a) As soon as practical after the date hereof, but in any event no later than sixty (60) days after the date hereof, TB shall obtain and deliver to BFC, with respect to all interests in real property owned by TB and its Subsidiaries, an owner’s preliminary report of title covering a date subsequent to the date hereof, issued by a title insurance company selected by BFC, showing fee simple title in TB or its Subsidiaries in such real property with coverage over all standard exceptions and subject to no Liens. The cost of obtaining any preliminary report of title discussed in this Section 5.04(a) shall be borne by TB.

(b) At the Closing, TB shall obtain at its own expense and deliver to BFC, with respect to all interests in real property owned by TB or any of its Subsidiaries, an owner’s title insurance policy, or an irrevocable commitment to issue such a policy to TB at no expense to TB, dated as of the later of the Closing Date and the actual date of recording of the deed for such property, on ALTA Policy Form 2006, if available (if not available, then on Form B-1992), with respect to all interests in real property owned by TB and its Subsidiaries, issued by a title insurance company selected by BFC, containing any endorsements reasonably required by BFC, insuring the fee simple estate of TB or any of its Subsidiaries in such properties in the amount not less than the greater of (i) the appraised value of the property and (ii) the value at which TB currently carries the property on its books.

Section 5.05 Surveys.

BFC may, in its discretion, within forty-five (45) days after the date hereof, require TB to provide, at TB’s expense and as soon as practicable prior to the Closing, a current American Land Title Association survey of any or all parcels of real property owned by TB or its Subsidiaries, disclosing no survey defects that would materially impair the use thereof for the purposes for which it is held or materially impair the value of such property.

Section 5.06 Environmental Investigation.

(a) BFC may, in its discretion, request in writing which request, if any, shall be made no later than ten (10) days after the date hereof, (“Phase I Request”) that TB order, at BFC’s expense, a Phase I environmental site assessment (with such site assessment to include ASTM non-scope visual inspections for asbestos and mold, and a review of radon maps) to be delivered only to BFC for each parcel of real property (including OREO) specified in the Phase I Request in which TB or any of its Subsidiaries holds an interest (each a “Phase I Report”), conducted by an independent professional consultant reasonably acceptable to BFC to determine if any real property (including OREO) in which TB or any of its Subsidiaries holds any interest contains or gives evidence of any Recognized Environmental Condition (as defined in ASTM Standard E1527-13) (“RECs”) or Business Environmental Risks (as defined in ASTM-05 Subsection 3.2.11) (“BERs”). Such Phase I Reports shall be delivered to BFC within forty-five (45) days of the Phase I Request. If (1) any Phase I Report identifies any RECs or BERs, (2) such report recommends further subsurface investigation, and (3) BFC requests in writing within five (5) days of receipt of such Phase I Report that TB obtain a Phase II environmental report (a “Phase II Report,” and collectively referred to with the associated Phase I Report, as an “Environmental Report”) and provides a copy of the Phase I Report to TB, TB shall obtain the Phase II Report at BFC’s expense. If TB does not obtain the Phase II Report, BFC may terminate the Agreement. If TB obtains a Phase II Report, such report shall contain an estimate of the cost of any remediation or other follow-up work that may be necessary to address the RECs or BERs in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements. BFC shall have no duty to act upon any information produced by an Environmental Report for the benefit of TB or any other Person, but shall provide such information to TB upon TB’s request.

(b) Upon receipt of the estimate of the costs of any follow-up work that may be required pursuant to the findings of an Environmental Report and required by Environmental Law, BFC and TB shall attempt to agree upon a course of action for addressing any RECs or BERs. The estimated total cost for completing all work plans or removal or remediation actions required by Environmental Law is referred to collectively as the “Remediation Cost.” If the aggregate Remediation Cost for the total parcels of property in which TB or any of its Subsidiaries holds an interest exceeds $500,000, BFC may, at its sole option, terminate this Agreement. If the aggregate Remediation Cost for the total parcels of property in which TB or any of its Subsidiaries holds an interest is less than $500,000, BFC may not terminate this Agreement, and TB will pay or accrue all of the Remediation Costs before the Effective Time. Any accrual of the Remediation Cost shall be accrued, on an after-tax basis, by TB prior to Closing.

Section 5.07 TB Shareholder Approval.

(a) Following the execution of this Agreement, TB shall take, in accordance in all material respects with applicable Law and the articles of incorporation and bylaws of TB, all action necessary to convene a special meeting of its shareholders as promptly as practicable following the effectiveness of the Registration Statement to consider and vote upon the approval of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Merger) and any other matters required to be approved by TB’s shareholders in order to permit consummation of the Merger and the transactions contemplated hereby (including any adjournment or postponement thereof, the “TB Meeting”) and shall take all lawful action to solicit such approval by such shareholders. TB shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Requisite TB Shareholder Approval to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, and shall ensure that the TB Meeting is called, noticed, convened, held and conducted, and that all proxies solicited by TB in connection with the TB Meeting are solicited in compliance in all material respects with the WBCL, the articles of incorporation and bylaws of TB, and all other applicable legal requirements. Except with the prior approval of BFC, no other matters shall be submitted for the approval of TB shareholders at the TB Meeting.

(b) Except to the extent provided otherwise in Section 5.13, the board of directors of TB shall at all times prior to and during the TB Meeting recommend approval of this Agreement by the shareholders of TB and the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Merger) and any other matters required to be approved by TB’s shareholders for consummation of the Merger and the transactions contemplated hereby (the “TB Recommendation”) and shall not withhold, withdraw, amend, modify, change or qualify such recommendation in a manner adverse in any respect to the interests of BFC or take any other action or make any other public statement inconsistent with such recommendation and the Proxy Statement-Prospectus shall include the TB Recommendation. In the event that there is present at such meeting, in person or by proxy, sufficient favorable voting power to secure the Requisite TB Shareholder Approval, TB will not adjourn or postpone the TB Meeting unless TB is advised by counsel that failure to do so would result in a breach of the fiduciary duties of the board of directors of TB. TB shall keep BFC updated with respect to the proxy solicitation results in connection with the TB Meeting as reasonably requested by BFC.

Section 5.08 Registration Statement; Proxy Statement-Prospectus; NASDAQ Listing.

(a) BFC and TB agree to cooperate in the preparation of the Registration Statement to be filed by BFC with the SEC in connection with the issuance of BFC Common Stock in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the Proxy Statement-Prospectus and all related documents). TB shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to BFC such financial statements and related analysis of TB, including “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of TB, as may be required in order to file the Registration Statement, and any other report required to be filed by BFC with the SEC, in each case, in compliance in all material respects with applicable Laws, and shall, as promptly as practicable following execution of this Agreement, prepare and deliver drafts of such information to BFC to review. Within sixty (60) days of the date of this Agreement, BFC shall file with the SEC the Registration Statement. Each of BFC and TB agree to use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC as promptly as reasonably practicable after the filing thereof and to maintain such effectiveness for as long as necessary to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. BFC also agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any necessary state securities Law or “blue sky” permits and approvals required to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. TB agrees to cooperate with BFC and BFC’s counsel and accountants in requesting and obtaining appropriate opinions, consents and letters from TB’s independent auditors in connection with the Registration Statement and the Proxy Statement-Prospectus. After the Registration Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act, TB, at its own expense, shall promptly mail or cause to be mailed the Proxy Statement-Prospectus to its shareholders.

(b) BFC will advise TB, promptly after BFC receives notice thereof, of the time when the Registration Statement has become effective or any supplement or amendment has been filed, of the issuance of any stop order or the suspension of the qualification of BFC Common Stock for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, of the initiation or threat of any proceeding for any such purpose, or of any request by the SEC for the amendment or supplement of the Registration Statement or upon the receipt of any comments (whether written or oral) from the SEC or its staff. BFC will provide TB and its counsel with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Registration Statement and the Proxy Statement-Prospectus, and all responses to requests for additional information by and replies to comments of the SEC prior to filing such with, or sending such to, the SEC, and BFC will provide TB and its counsel with a copy of all such filings made with the SEC. If at any time prior to the Effective Time there shall occur any event that should be disclosed in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement-Prospectus or the Registration Statement so that either such document would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, BFC shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to promptly prepare and file such amendment or supplement with the SEC (if required under applicable Law) and cooperate with TB to mail such amendment or supplement to TB shareholders (if required under applicable Law).

(c) BFC will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the shares of BFC Common Stock to be issued in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to be approved for listing on NASDAQ, subject to official notice of issuance, prior to the Effective Time.

Section 5.09 Regulatory Filings.

(a) BFC and TB and their respective Subsidiaries will cooperate and use commercially reasonable efforts to as promptly as possible, but in no event later than forty-five (45) days following the date hereof, prepare and file all Regulatory Approvals. Each of BFC and TB will have the right to review in advance, and to the extent practicable each will consult with the other, in each case subject to applicable Laws relating to the exchange of information, with respect to all substantive written information submitted to any Regulatory Authority in connection with the Regulatory Approvals. In exercising the foregoing right, each of the Parties will act reasonably and as promptly as practicable. Each Party agrees that it will consult with the other Party with respect to obtaining all permits, consents, approvals and authorizations of all Regulatory Authorities necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and each Party will keep the other Party apprised of the status of material matters relating to completion of the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Agreement, nothing contained herein shall be deemed to require BFC or any of its Subsidiaries or TB or any of its Subsidiaries to take any non-standard action, or commit to take any such action, or agree to any non-standard condition or restriction, in connection with obtaining the Regulatory Approvals that would reasonably be likely to have a Material Adverse Effect on BFC, TB, the Surviving Entity or the Surviving Bank, after giving effect to the Merger (“Burdensome Condition”).

(b) BFC and TB will furnish each other and each other’s counsel with all information concerning themselves, their Subsidiaries, directors, trustees, officers and shareholders and such other matters as may be necessary or advisable in connection with any application, petition or any other statement or application made by or on behalf of BFC or TB to any Governmental Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Party shall have the right to review and approve in advance all characterizations of the information relating to such party and any of its Subsidiaries that appear in any filing made in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement with any Governmental Authority. In addition, BFC and TB shall each furnish to the other for review a copy of each such filing made in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement with any Governmental Authority prior to its filing.

Section 5.10 Third Party Consents.

TB will use its commercially reasonable efforts, and BFC shall reasonably cooperate with TB at TB’s request, to obtain all consents, approvals, authorizations, waivers or similar affirmations described on Schedule 3.06(a). Each Party will notify the other Party promptly and shall promptly furnish the other Party with copies of notices or other communications received by such Party or any of its Subsidiaries of any communication from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person (or another Person) is or may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (and the response thereto from such Party, its Subsidiaries or its representatives). TB will consult with BFC and its representatives as often as practicable under the circumstances so as to permit TB and BFC and their respective representatives to cooperate to take appropriate measures to obtain such consents and avoid or mitigate any adverse consequences that may result from the foregoing.

Section 5.11 Publicity.

BFC and TB shall consult with each other before issuing any press release with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement without the prior consent of the other Party, which shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld; provided, however, that a Party may, without the prior consent of the other Party (but after such consultation, to the extent practicable in the circumstances), issue such press release or make such public statements as may upon the advice of counsel be required by Law or the rules and regulations of any stock exchanges. It is understood that BFC shall assume primary responsibility for the preparation of joint press releases relating to this Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 5.12 Access; Current Information.

(a) For the purposes of verifying the representations and warranties of TB and preparing for the Merger and the other matters contemplated by this Agreement, upon reasonable notice and subject to applicable Laws, TB agrees to afford BFC and its officers, employees, counsel, accountants and other authorized representatives such access during normal business hours at any time and from time to time throughout the period prior to the Effective Time to TB’s and its Subsidiaries’ books, records (including, without limitation, Tax Returns and work papers of independent auditors), information technology systems, business, properties and personnel and to such other information relating to them as BFC may reasonably request and TB shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide any appropriate notices to employees and/or customers in accordance with applicable Law and TB’s privacy policy and, during such period, TB shall furnish to BFC, upon BFC’s reasonable request, all such other information concerning the business, properties and personnel of TB and its Subsidiaries that is substantially similar in scope to the information provided to BFC in connection with its diligence review prior to the date of this Agreement.

(b) For the purposes of verifying the representations and warranties of BFC and preparing for the Merger and the other matters contemplated by this Agreement, during the period of time from the date of this Agreement to the Effective Time, upon reasonable notice and subject to applicable Laws, BFC agrees to furnish to TB such information as TB may reasonably request concerning the business of BFC and its Subsidiaries that is substantially similar in scope to the information provided to TB in connection with its diligence review prior to the date of this Agreement.

(c) As promptly as reasonably practicable after they become available, TB will furnish to BFC copies of the board packages distributed to the board of directors of TB or any of its Subsidiaries, and minutes from the meetings thereof, copies of any internal management financial control reports showing actual financial performance against plans and previous periods, and copies of any reports provided to the board of directors of TB or any committee thereof relating to the financial performance and risk management of TB.

(d) During the period from the date of this Agreement to the Effective Time, at the reasonable request of either Party, the other Party will cause one or more of its designated representatives to confer with representatives of the requesting Party and to report the general status of the ongoing operations of such other Party and its Subsidiaries. Without limiting the foregoing, TB agrees to provide to BFC (i) a copy of each report filed by TB or any of its Subsidiaries with a Governmental Authority, (ii) a copy of TB’s monthly loan trial balance, and (iii) a copy of TB’s monthly statement of condition and profit and loss statement and, if requested by BFC, a copy of TB’s daily statement of condition and daily profit and loss statement, in each case, which shall be provided as promptly as reasonably practicable after it is filed or prepared, as applicable. TB further agrees to provide BFC, no later than ten (10) Business Days following the end of each calendar month following the date hereof, any supplements to Schedule 3.19, Schedule 3.21(a), and Schedule 3.21(b) that would be required if the references to September 30, 2019 in each corresponding representation and warranty of TB were changed to the date of the most recently ended calendar month.

(e) No investigation by a Party or its representatives shall be deemed to modify or waive any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the other Party set forth in this Agreement, or the conditions to the respective obligations of BFC and TB to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.12, TB shall not be required to copy BFC on any documents that disclose confidential discussions of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, that contain competitively sensitive business or other proprietary information filed under a claim of confidentiality (including any confidential supervisory information) or any other matter that TB’s board of directors has been advised by counsel that such distribution to BFC may violate a confidentiality obligation or fiduciary duty or any Law or regulation, or may result in a waiver of TB’s attorney-client privilege. In the event any of the restrictions in this Section 5.12(f) shall apply, TB shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide appropriate consents, waivers, decrees and approvals necessary to satisfy any confidentiality issues relating to documents prepared or held by third parties (including work papers), the Parties will make appropriate alternate disclosure arrangements, including adopting additional specific procedures to protect the confidentiality of sensitive material and to ensure compliance with applicable Laws.

Section 5.13 No Solicitation by TB; Superior Proposals.

(a) Except as permitted by Section 5.13(b), TB shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and each of their respective officers, directors and employees not to, and will not authorize any investment bankers, financial advisors, attorneys, accountants, consultants, affiliates or other agents of TB or any of TB’s Subsidiaries (collectively, the “TB Representatives”) to, directly or indirectly, (i) initiate, solicit, induce or knowingly encourage, or take any action to facilitate the making of, any inquiry, offer or proposal which constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal; (ii) participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding any Acquisition Proposal or furnish, or otherwise afford access, to any Person (other than BFC) any information or data with respect to TB or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise relating to an Acquisition Proposal; (iii) release any Person from, waive any provisions of, or fail to enforce any confidentiality agreement or standstill agreement to which TB is a party; or (iv) enter into any agreement, confidentiality agreement, agreement in principle or letter of intent with respect to any Acquisition Proposal or approve or resolve to approve any Acquisition Proposal or any agreement, agreement in principle or letter of intent relating to an Acquisition Proposal. Any violation of the foregoing restrictions by any of the TB Representatives, whether or not such TB Representative is so authorized and whether or not such TB Representative is purporting to act on behalf of TB or otherwise, shall be deemed to be a breach of this Agreement by TB. TB and its Subsidiaries shall, and shall cause each of the TB Representatives to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated any and all existing discussions, negotiations, and communications with any Persons with respect to any existing or potential Acquisition Proposal.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 5.13(a) or any other provision of this Agreement, prior to the date of the TB Meeting, TB may take any of the actions described in Section 5.13(a) if, but only if, (i) TB has received a bona fide unsolicited written Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a breach of Section 5.13(a); (ii) the board of directors of TB reasonably determines in good faith, after consultation with and having considered the advice of its outside financial advisor and outside legal counsel, that (A) such Acquisition Proposal constitutes or is reasonably likely to lead to a Superior Proposal and (B) the failure to take such actions would cause it to violate its fiduciary duties to TB’s shareholders under applicable Law; (iii) TB has provided BFC with at least three (3) Business Days’ prior notice of such determination; and (iv) prior to furnishing or affording access to any information or data with respect to TB or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise relating to an Acquisition Proposal, TB receives from such Person a confidentiality agreement with terms no less favorable to TB than those contained in the confidentiality agreement with BFC. TB shall promptly provide to BFC any non-public information regarding TB or its Subsidiaries provided to any other Person which was not previously provided to BFC, such additional information to be provided no later than the date of provision of such information to such other party.

(c) TB shall promptly (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours) notify BFC in writing if any proposals or offers are received by, any information is requested from, or any negotiations or discussions are sought to be initiated or continued with, TB or the TB Representatives, in each case in connection with any Acquisition Proposal, and such notice shall indicate the name of the Person initiating such discussions or negotiations or making such proposal, offer or information request and the material terms and conditions of any proposals or offers (and, in the case of written materials relating to such proposal, offer, information request, negotiations or discussion, providing copies of such materials (including e-mails or other electronic communications) except to the extent that such materials constitute confidential information of the party making such offer or proposal under an effective confidentiality agreement). TB agrees that it shall keep BFC informed, on a reasonably current basis, of the status and terms of any such proposal, offer, information request, negotiations or discussions (including any amendments or modifications to such proposal, offer or request).

(d) Neither the board of directors of TB nor any committee thereof shall (i) withdraw, qualify, amend or modify, or propose to withdraw, qualify, amend or modify, in a manner adverse to BFC in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the Merger), the TB Recommendation, fail to reaffirm the TB Recommendation within three (3) Business Days following a request by BFC, or make any statement, filing or release, in connection with the TB Meeting or otherwise, inconsistent with the TB Recommendation (it being understood that taking a neutral position or no position with respect to an Acquisition Proposal shall be considered an adverse modification of the TB Recommendation); (ii) approve or recommend, or propose to approve or recommend, any Acquisition Proposal; or (iii) enter into (or cause TB or any of its Subsidiaries to enter into) any letter of intent, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement or other agreement (A) related to any Acquisition Transaction (other than a confidentiality agreement entered into in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.13(b)) or (B) requiring TB to abandon, terminate or fail to consummate the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding Section 5.13(d), prior to the date of the TB Meeting, the board of directors of TB may withdraw, qualify, amend or modify the TB Recommendation (a “TB Subsequent Determination”), or terminate this Agreement in order to concurrently enter into an Agreement with respect to a Superior Proposal, after the fifth (5^th) Business Day following BFC’s receipt of a notice (the “Notice of Superior Proposal”) from TB advising BFC that the board of directors of TB has decided that a bona fide unsolicited written Acquisition Proposal that it received (that did not result from a breach of Section 5.13(a)) constitutes a Superior Proposal if, but only if, (i) the board of directors of TB has determined in good faith, after consultation with and having considered the advice of outside legal counsel and its financial advisor, that the failure to take such actions would cause it to violate its fiduciary duties to TB’s shareholders under applicable Law, (ii) during the five (5) Business Day period after receipt of the Notice of Superior Proposal by BFC (the “Notice Period”), TB and the board of directors of TB shall have cooperated and negotiated in good faith with BFC to make such adjustments, modifications or amendments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement as would enable TB to proceed with the TB Recommendation without a TB Subsequent Determination; provided, however, that BFC shall not have any obligation to propose any adjustments, modifications or amendments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and (iii) at the end of the Notice Period, after taking into account any such adjusted, modified or amended terms as may have been proposed by BFC since its receipt of such Notice of Superior Proposal, the board of directors of TB has again in good faith made the determination (A) in clause (i) of this Section 5.13(e) and (B) that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal. In the event of any material revisions to the Superior Proposal, TB shall be required to deliver a new Notice of Superior Proposal to BFC and again comply with the requirements of this Section 5.13(e), except that the Notice Period shall be reduced to three (3) Business Days.

(f) Nothing contained in this Section 5.13 shall prohibit TB or the board of directors of TB from complying with TB’s obligations required under Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act; provided, however, that any such disclosure relating to an Acquisition Proposal (other than a “stop, look and listen” or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act) shall be deemed a change in the TB Recommendation unless the board of directors of TB reaffirms the TB Recommendation in such disclosure.

Section 5.14 Indemnification.

(a) For a period of six (6) years from and after the Effective Time, and in any event subject to the provisions of Section 5.14(b), BFC shall indemnify and hold harmless the present and former directors and officers of TB and its Subsidiaries (each an “Indemnified Parties”), against all costs, expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities or amounts that are paid in settlement (which settlement shall require the prior written consent of BFC, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) of or in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (each a “Claim”), arising out of actions or omissions of such persons in the course of performing their duties for TB or any of its Subsidiaries occurring at or before the Effective Time (including the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby), regardless of whether such Claim is asserted or claimed before, or after, the Effective Time, to the same extent permitted under the organizational documents of TB and its Subsidiaries in effect on the date of this Agreement to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

(b) Any Indemnified Party wishing to claim indemnification under this Section 5.14 shall promptly notify BFC upon learning of any Claim, provided that, failure to so notify shall not affect the obligation of BFC under this Section 5.14, unless, and only to the extent that, BFC is materially prejudiced in the defense of such Claim as a consequence. In the event of any such Claim (whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time), (i) BFC shall have the right to assume the defense thereof and BFC shall not be liable to such Indemnified Party for any legal expenses or other counsel or any other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof, (ii) such Indemnified Party will cooperate in the defense of any such matter, (iii) BFC shall not be liable for any settlement effected without its prior written consent and (iv) BFC shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Party if such indemnification would be in violation of any applicable federal or state banking Laws or regulations, or in the event that a federal or state banking agency or a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that indemnification of an Indemnified Party in the manner contemplated hereby is prohibited by applicable Laws and regulations, whether or not related to banking Laws.

(c) For a period of six (6) years following the Effective Time, BFC will maintain director’s and officer’s liability insurance (herein, “D&O Insurance”) that serves to reimburse the present and former officers and directors of TB or its Subsidiaries (determined as of the Effective Time) with respect to claims against such directors and officers arising from facts or events occurring before the Effective Time (including the transactions contemplated hereby), which insurance will contain at least the same coverage and amounts, and contain terms and conditions no less advantageous to the Indemnified Parties, as that coverage currently provided by TB; provided that, if BFC is unable to maintain or obtain the insurance called for by this Section 5.14, BFC will provide as much comparable insurance as is reasonably available (subject to the limitations described below in this Section 5.14(c)); and provided, further, that officers and directors of TB or its Subsidiaries may be required to make application and provide customary representations and warranties to the carrier of the D&O Insurance for the purpose of obtaining such insurance. In no event shall BFC be required to expend for such tail insurance a premium amount in excess of an amount equal to 150% of the annual premiums paid by TB for D&O Insurance in effect as of the date of this Agreement (the “Maximum D&O Tail Premium”). If the cost of such tail insurance exceeds the Maximum D&O Tail Premium, BFC shall obtain tail insurance coverage or a separate tail insurance policy with the greatest coverage available for a cost not exceeding the Maximum D&O Tail Premium.

(d) This Section 5.14 shall survive the Effective Time, is intended to benefit each TB Indemnified Party (each of whom shall be entitled to enforce this Section against BFC), and shall be binding on all successors and assigns of BFC.

(e) If BFC or any of its successors and assigns (i) shall consolidate with or merge into any other corporation or entity and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger, or (ii) shall transfer all or substantially all of its property and assets to any individual, corporation or other entity, then, in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of BFC and its Subsidiaries shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.14.

Section 5.15 Employees; Benefit Plans.

(a) Following the Effective Time, for a period from the Closing Date until the earlier of (i) six months or (ii) as long as an employee of TB is a Covered Employee (as defined below), BFC shall maintain or cause to be maintained employee benefit plans for the benefit of employees who are full time employees of TB on the Closing Date and who become employees of BFC (“Covered Employees”) that provide employee benefits which, in the aggregate, are substantially comparable to the employee benefits and cash-based compensation opportunities that are made available on a uniform and non-discriminatory basis to similarly situated employees of BFC; provided, however, that in no event shall any Covered Employee be eligible to participate in any closed or frozen plan of BFC. BFC shall give the Covered Employees credit for their prior service with TB for purposes of eligibility (including initial participation and eligibility for current benefits) and vesting under any employee benefit plan maintained by BFC and in which Covered Employees may be eligible to participate.

(b) With respect to any employee benefit plan of BFC that is a health, dental, vision or other welfare plan in which any Covered Employee is eligible to participate, for the plan year that includes the Closing, if Covered Employees are eligible to participate in such plans, BFC shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any pre-existing condition limitations, eligibility waiting periods or evidence of insurability requirements under such BFC plan to be waived with respect to such Covered Employee and his or her covered dependents to the extent such condition was or would have been covered under the TB Benefit Plan in which such Covered Employee participated immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(c) Following the Effective Time, Bank First shall credit each Covered Employee with an amount of paid time off equal to such Covered Employee’s accrued but unused paid time off at Timberwood Bank up to 100 hours per year (“Carryover PTO”), provided that Bank First may allocate the Carryover PTO between vacation leave and sick leave in its discretion.

(d) TB shall cause Timberwood Bank to take all necessary actions to terminate the Timberwood Bank Savings and Retirement Plan (“KSOP”), effective as the date immediately preceding the date of the Effective Time of the Merger, subject to the occurrence of the Effective Time.

(a) The Parties intend that the Merger and the Bank Merger shall each qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and that this Agreement constitute a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Section 1.368-2(g) of the Regulations. Except as expressly contemplated or permitted by this Agreement, from and after the date of this Agreement, each of BFC and TB shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to cause each of the Merger and the Bank Merger to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, and will not take any action, cause any action to be taken, fail to take any action or cause any action to fail to be taken which action or failure to act is intended or is reasonably likely to prevent either the Merger or the Bank Merger from qualifying as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

This Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, reference to the transactions contemplated herein) represents the entire understanding of the Parties, and this Agreement supersedes any and all other oral or written agreements heretofore made. Except for the Indemnified Parties’ rights under Section 5.14, BFC and TB hereby agree that their respective representations, warranties and covenants set forth herein are solely for the benefit of the other Party, in accordance with and subject to the terms of this Agreement, and this Agreement is not intended to, and does not, confer upon any Person (including any Person who might be affected by Section 5.15), other than the Parties, any rights or remedies hereunder, including, the right to rely upon the representations and warranties set forth herein. The representations and warranties in this Agreement are the product of negotiations between the Parties and are for the sole benefit of the Parties. Consequently, Persons other than the Parties may not rely upon the representations and warranties in this Agreement as characterizations of actual facts or circumstances as of the date of this Agreement or as of any other date.

Section 9.07 Severability.

In the event that any one or more provisions of this Agreement shall for any reason be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, by any court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this Agreement and the Parties will use their commercially reasonable efforts to substitute a valid, legal and enforceable provision which, insofar as practical, implements the purposes and intents of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision(s) of this Agreement.

The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached.

(b) The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and the other agreements and documents contemplated herein. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises under any provision of this Agreement or any other agreement or document contemplated herein, this Agreement and such other agreements or documents shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring either Party by virtue of authorizing any of the provisions of this Agreement or any other agreements or documents contemplated herein.

No item is required to be set forth on either the TB Disclosure Schedules or the BFC Disclosure Schedules, as applicable, as an exception to a representation or warranty if its absence would not result in the related representation or warranty being deemed untrue or incorrect. The mere inclusion of a disclosure on either the TB Disclosure Schedules or the BFC Disclosure Schedules, as applicable, as an exception to a representation or warranty shall not be deemed an admission by the disclosing Party that such disclosure represents a material exception or fact, event or circumstance or that such disclosure is reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect, or that any breach or violation of applicable Laws or any contract exists or has actually occurred with respect to such disclosing Party. This Agreement shall not be interpreted or construed to require any person to take any action, or fail to take any action, if to do so would violate any applicable Law.

(d) Any reference contained in this Agreement to specific statutory or regulatory provisions or to any specific Governmental Authority shall include any successor statute or regulation, or successor Governmental Authority, as the case may be. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the masculine, feminine, and neuter genders will be deemed to be interchangeable, and the singular includes the plural and vice versa. As used herein, (i) the term “made available” means any document or other information that was (a) provided by one Party or its representatives to the other Party or its representatives prior to the date hereof or (b) included in the “Deerslayer” virtual data room located at https://silock.ufsdata.com no less than 48 hours prior to the date hereof, and (ii) the word “or” is not exclusive.

(e) Unless otherwise specified, the references to “Section” and “Article” in this Agreement are to the sections and articles of this Agreement. When used in this Agreement, words such as “herein”, “hereinafter”, “hereof”, “hereto”, and “hereunder” refer to this Agreement as a whole, unless the context clearly requires otherwise.

Section 9.10 Assignment.

Neither Party may assign this Agreement or any of its rights, interests or obligations hereunder without the prior written approval of the other Party, and any purported assignment in violation of this Section 9.10 shall be void. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
