This Management Recognition Award is granted the 3rd day of May, 2004 (the Date of Grant), by BANK MUTUAL CORPORATION, Wisconsin corporation (hereinafter called Bank Mutual), to Director (hereinafter called the Grantee).
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of Bank Mutual adopted the Bank Mutual Corporation 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (the Plan) on February 2, 2004, subject to stockholder approval which was obtained May 3, 2004; and
NOW, THEREFORE, it is agreed as follows:
1. Number of Shares Awarded. Bank Mutual grants to Grantee a management recognition stock award covering ###### shares of Bank Mutuals common stock.
2. Vesting of Award. This Award shall become vested in accordance with the following vesting schedule:
Number of Completed Years of Continuous Service After the Date of Grant | Percentage of Shares Becoming Vested Under the Award | ||
Less than 1 year | Zero | ||
At least 1 but less than 2 | 20 | % | |
At least 2 but less than 3 | 40 | % | |
At least 3 but less than 4 | 60 | % | |
At least 4 but less than 5 | 80 | % | |
At least 5 Years | 100 | % |
Notwithstanding the forgoing, the shares covered by this Award shall become fully vested in the event of Grantees death or disability, or in the event of a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan). The period of time during which the shares covered by the Award are forfeitable is referred to as the Restricted Period. If Grantees service with Bank Mutual or a Subsidiary terminates during the Restricted Period for any reason other than death or disability, the Restricted Stock that has not yet become vested shall be forfeited to Bank Mutual on the date of such termination, without any further obligations of Bank Mutual to the Grantee and all rights of the Grantee with respect to the Restricted Stock shall terminate.
3. Delivery of Shares; Rights During Restricted Period. Grantee shall not be deemed the holder of any shares covered by this Award until such shares are issued to him/her. Following the issuance of the shares covered by the Award to Grantee, the Grantee shall have the right to vote the Restricted Stock and to receive cash dividends; however, all stock dividends, stock rights or other securities issued with respect to the Restricted Stock (collectively, the Proceeds) shall be forfeitable and subject to the same restrictions as exist regarding the original shares of Restricted Stock. The Restricted Stock shall be nontransferable during the Restricted Period, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution.
4. Custody of Shares. The Restricted Stock issued to Grantee may be credited to Grantee in book entry form and shall be held, along with any Proceeds, in custody by Bank Mutual until the applicable restrictions have expired. If any certificates are issued for shares of Restricted Stock or any of the Proceeds during the Restricted Period, such certificates shall bear an appropriate legend as determined by the Committee referring to the applicable terms, conditions and restrictions and the Grantee shall deliver a signed, blank stock power to Bank Mutual relating thereto.
5. Changes in Stock. In the event of any recapitalization, stock split or reverse split, stock dividend, merger in which Bank Mutual is the surviving corporation, combination or exchange of shares or other capital change affecting the common stock of Bank Mutual, the Committee shall make, subject to the approval of the Board of Directors of Bank Mutual, equitable and appropriate changes in the aggregate number and kind of shares subject to this Award, to prevent substantial dilution or enlargement of the rights granted to or available for Grantee.
6. No Service Agreement Intended. This Agreement does not confer upon Grantee any right to continuation of service in any capacity by Bank Mutual or a Subsidiary and does not constitute a service agreement of any kind.
