Whereas, the Board of Directors of each of the parties hereto has approved this Agreement and authorized its execution; and

Whereas, the Board of Directors of each of the parties hereto intends this Agreement to be designated a plan of reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and a plan of merger; and

Whereas, as an inducement for Horizon to enter into this Agreement, each of the directors and executive officers of WBKC has entered into a Voting Agreement with Horizon substantially in the form of Exhibit 5.01 hereto, dated as of the date hereof (the “Voting Agreement”), pursuant to which each such director and executive officer has agreed, among other things, to vote all shares of common stock of WBKC owned by such person in favor of the approval of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in such Voting Agreements.

Now, Therefore, in consideration of the foregoing premises, the representations, warranties, covenants, and agreements herein contained, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

    1.01   The Merger.

(a) General Description.  Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time (as defined in Article IX), WBKC shall merge with and into Horizon (the “Merger”). Horizon shall survive the Merger (sometimes hereinafter referred to as the “Surviving Corporation”) and shall continue its corporate existence under the laws of the State of Indiana pursuant to the provisions of and with the effect provided in the Indiana Business Corporation Law (the “IBCL”), as amended.

(b) Name, Officers, and Directors.  The name of the Surviving Corporation shall be “Horizon Bancorp.” Its principal office shall be located at 515 Franklin Street, Michigan City, Indiana 46360. The officers of Horizon serving at the Effective Time shall continue to serve as the officers of the Surviving Corporation, until such time as their successors shall have been duly elected and have qualified or until their earlier resignation, death, or removal from office. The directors of the Surviving Corporation following the Effective Time shall be those individuals serving as directors of Horizon at the Effective Time, until such time as their successors have been duly elected and have qualified or until their earlier resignation, death, or removal as a director; provided, however, that Horizon shall take all appropriate action so that, as of the Effective Time and subject to and in accordance with the Bylaws of Horizon, Eric P. Blackhurst (or such other director as shall be mutually agreed upon), shall be appointed as a director of Horizon.

(c) Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws.  The Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of Horizon in existence at the Effective Time shall remain the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation following the Effective Time, until such Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws shall be further amended as provided by applicable law.

(d) Effect of the Merger.  At the Effective Time, the title to all assets, real estate, and other property owned by WBKC shall vest in Surviving Corporation as set forth in Indiana Code Section 23-1-40-6, as amended, without reversion or impairment. At the Effective Time, all liabilities of WBKC shall become liabilities of the Surviving Corporation as set forth in Indiana Code Section 23-1-40-6, as amended.

(e) Integration.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the parties hereto intend to effectuate at the Effective Time, or cause to be effectuated at the Effective Time, the Merger, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the IBCL, and this Agreement shall also constitute the “plan of merger” pursuant to Indiana Code Section 23-1-40-1. If required, the parties agree to enter into a separate short-form plan of merger evidencing the terms required by Indiana Code Section 23-1-40-1. The parties agree to cooperate and to take all reasonable actions prior to the Effective Time, including executing all requisite documentation, as may be reasonably necessary to effect the Merger in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions hereof.

    1.02 Reservation of Right to Revise Structure.  At Horizon’s election, the Merger may alternatively be structured so that (a) WBKC is merged with and into any other direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Horizon, or (b) any direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Horizon is merged with and into WBKC; provided, however, that no such change shall: (1) alter or change the amount or kind of the Merger Consideration (as defined in Section 2.01), or the treatment of the holders of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of WBKC (the “WBKC Common Stock”) (including the holders of WBKC Restricted Stock Awards, as defined in Section 2.02(b)), or the holders of options for WBKC Common Stock; (2) prevent the parties from obtaining the opinions of counsel referred to in Sections 7.01(h) and 7.02(h) or otherwise cause the transaction to fail to qualify for the tax treatment described in Section 1.03 or adversely affect the tax treatment of WBKC’s shareholders pursuant to this Agreement; or (3) materially impede or delay consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In the event of such a revision, the parties agree to execute an appropriate amendment to this Agreement (to the extent such amendment only changes the method of effecting the business combination and does not substantively affect this Agreement or the rights and obligations of the parties or their respective shareholders) in order to reflect such revision.

    1.03 Tax Free Reorganization.  Horizon and WBKC intend for the Merger to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) and related sections of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and for this Agreement to constitute a “plan of reorganization” for purposes of Sections 354 and 361 of the Code, and they agree to cooperate and to take such actions as may be reasonably necessary to assure such result.

    1.04 Absence of Control.  Subject to any specific provisions of the Agreement, it is the intent of the parties to this Agreement that neither Horizon nor WBKC by reason of this Agreement shall be deemed (until consummation of the transactions contemplated here) to control, directly or indirectly, the other party or any of its respective Subsidiaries (as defined in the introductory paragraphs to Article III and Article IV) and that neither shall exercise or be deemed to exercise, directly or indirectly, a controlling influence over the management or policies of such other party or any of its respective Subsidiaries.

    1.05 Bank Merger.  The parties will cooperate and use reasonable best efforts to effect the merger of Wolverine Bank with and into Horizon Bank (the “Bank Merger”) immediately following the Effective Time pursuant to a merger agreement to be mutually agreed upon between the parties. At the effective time of the Bank Merger, the separate corporate existence of Wolverine Bank will terminate. Horizon Bank will be the surviving bank (the “Surviving Bank”) and will continue its corporate existence under applicable law. The Articles of Association or other governing charter document of Horizon Bank, as then in effect, will be the Articles of Association or other governing charter document of the Surviving Bank, and the Bylaws of Horizon Bank, as then in effect, will be the Bylaws of the Surviving Bank. The directors of Horizon Bank following the effective time of the Bank Merger shall be those individuals serving as directors of Horizon Bank at the effective time of the Bank Merger, until such time as their successors have been duly elected and have qualified or until their earlier resignation, death, or removal as a director; provided, however, that Horizon Bank shall take all appropriate action so that, as of the effective time of the Bank Merger, and subject to and in accordance with the Bylaws of Horizon Bank, Eric P. Blackhurst (or such other director as shall be mutually agreed upon), shall be appointed as a director of Horizon Bank. The officers of Horizon Bank serving at the effective time of the Bank Merger shall continue to serve as the

officers of the Surviving Bank, until such time as their successors shall have been duly elected and have qualified or until their earlier resignation, death, or removal from office.

    1.06 Sale of Real Estate Subsidiary.  Prior to the Effective Time, WBKC shall cause Wolverine Bank to use its reasonable best efforts to take all steps necessary to sell Wolverine Commercial Holdings, LLC, a Michigan limited liability company (“Commercial Holdings”), as of the Effective Time (the “Commercial Holdings Termination”).

    1.07 Dissolution of Title Business Holding Company.  Prior to the Effective Time, WBKC shall cause Wolverine Bank to use its reasonable best efforts to take all steps necessary to dissolve Wolserv Corp., a Michigan corporation (“Wolserv”), as of the Effective Time (the “Wolserv Termination”).

    1.08 No Dissenters’ Rights.  Shareholders of WBKC are not entitled to any dissenters’ rights under Title 3 of the Maryland General Corporation Law, as amended. WBKC shall take no action which would result in the loss of such exemption prior to the Effective Time.

    2.01 Merger Consideration.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, each share of WBKC Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares held as treasury stock of WBKC, shares held by the Bank ESOP that are remitted to WBKC prior to the Effective Time for purposes of repayment of the ESOP loan balance as contemplated by Section 5.16(c) and shares held directly or indirectly by Horizon, except shares held in a fiduciary capacity or in satisfaction of a debt previously contracted, if any; collectively, the “Exempt WBKC Stock”) shall become and be converted into the right to receive in accordance with this Article II both: (i) 1.0152 shares of Horizon common stock (the “Exchange Ratio”) (as adjusted in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), without par value (the stock consideration to be paid in the Merger is referred to herein as the “Stock Consideration”); and (ii) $14.00 in cash (the cash consideration to be paid in the Merger is referred to herein as the “Cash Consideration”) (with the Stock Consideration and the Cash Consideration collectively referred to herein as the “Merger Consideration”).

    2.02 Treatment of WBKC Equity Awards.

(a) Stock Options.  All outstanding options to purchase WBKC Common Stock, whether or not vested (“WBKC Options”), shall be converted into the right to receive from Horizon, at the Effective Time, an amount in cash equal to $40.00 minus the per share exercise price for each share of WBKC Common Stock subject to a WBKC Option; provided, however, that there shall be withheld from such cash payment any taxes required to be withheld by applicable law. Such payment shall be made by WBKC immediately prior to the Effective Time. The Compensation Committee of WBKC shall take any required action under the WBKC Equity Plan regarding this treatment of the WBKC Options, and WBKC shall use its best efforts to obtain from all holders of an option or agreement their agreement to the treatment of their options in the manner contemplated by this Section on or before thirty (30) days after the date of this Agreement (the “Conversion Deadline”) by executing and delivering to Horizon an

agreement in the same form as Exhibit 2.02 attached hereto. WBKC shall amend any such plan accordingly (or take such other action as is necessary to cause all outstanding WBKC Options to terminate as of the Effective Time) prior to the Effective Time. Each such option shall be canceled and cease to exist by virtue of such payment. Execution of a cancellation agreement by every holder of WBKC Options shall not be a condition precedent to consummation of the transactions contemplated herein.

(b) Restricted Stock.  At the Effective Time, each award of shares of WBKC Common Stock granted under the WBKC 2012 Equity Incentive Plan, whether or not vested, that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (a “WBKC Restricted Stock Award”) shall fully vest and be canceled and be converted automatically into the right to receive the Merger Consideration. Horizon shall issue the consideration described in this Section 2.02(b), less applicable tax withholdings, in the same manner as the Merger Consideration is delivered to other WBKC shareholders.

    2.03 Anti-Dilution Adjustments.  If Horizon changes (or establishes a record date for changing) the number of shares of Horizon common stock issued and outstanding prior to the Effective Time by way of a stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reclassification or similar transaction with respect to the outstanding Horizon common stock, and the record date therefor is prior to the Effective Time, the Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted accordingly so that each shareholder of WBKC at the Effective Time shall receive, in the aggregate, such number of shares of Horizon common stock representing the same percentage of the outstanding shares of Horizon common stock that such shareholders would have received if any of the foregoing actions had not occurred. No adjustment shall be made under this Section 2.03 solely as a result of Horizon changing its cash dividend levels or issuing additional shares of Horizon common stock, provided it receives fair market value for such shares or such shares are issued in connection with a Horizon employee benefit plan or similar plan.

    2.04 No Fractional Shares.  Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, no fractional shares of Horizon common stock and no certificates or scrip therefor, or other evidence of ownership thereof, will be issued in the Merger; instead, Horizon shall pay to each holder of WBKC Common Stock who otherwise would be entitled to a fractional share of Horizon common stock an amount in cash (without interest) determined by multiplying such fraction by the average of the daily closing sales prices of a share of Horizon’s common stock, rounded to the nearest cent, during the fifteen (15) consecutive trading days immediately preceding the second business day prior to the Closing Date; provided, however, that closing sales prices shall only be used for days during which such shares are actually traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market.

    2.05 Exchange Procedures.

(a) Horizon shall appoint its transfer agent, Computershare, Inc. (“Exchange Agent”), as the exchange agent for the surrender of certificates formerly representing WBKC Common Stock in exchange for the Merger Consideration.

(b) At and after the Effective Time, each physical certificate or book-entry account statement evidencing outstanding shares of WBKC Common Stock (each an “Old Certificate”) (other than the Exempt WBKC Stock) shall represent only the right to receive the Merger

Consideration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. No later than the business day prior to the Closing Date, Horizon shall provide the Exchange Agent with the irrevocable authorization to issue a sufficient number of shares of Horizon common stock to be used to issue the aggregate Stock Consideration to holders of WBKC Common Stock and deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent, an amount in cash sufficient to pay the aggregate Cash Consideration payable to holders of WBKC Common Stock (together with cash for any fractional shares pursuant to Section 2.04).

(c) No later than five (5) business days after the Effective Time (and provided WBKC has delivered to the Exchange Agent all information which is necessary for the Exchange Agent to perform its obligations hereunder), the Exchange Agent shall mail to each holder of WBKC Common Stock a letter of transmittal providing instructions to the WBKC shareholder as to the transmittal to the Exchange Agent of the Old Certificates in exchange for the issuance of the Merger Consideration applicable thereto pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(d) Horizon shall cause a book-entry account statement representing that number of whole shares of Horizon common stock that each holder of WBKC Common Stock has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.01 as the holder’s aggregate Stock Consideration and a check in the amount of such holder’s aggregate Cash Consideration, along with any cash in lieu of fractional shares or dividends or distributions which such holder shall be entitled to receive, if any, to be delivered to such shareholder as soon as reasonably practicable after the shareholder delivers to Horizon the Old Certificates (or bond or other indemnity satisfactory to Horizon if any of such Old Certificates are lost, stolen or destroyed) owned by such shareholder, accompanied by a properly completed and executed letter of transmittal, in the form and substance satisfactory to Horizon, and any other documents required by this Agreement or reasonably requested by Horizon or the Exchange Agent. No interest will be paid on any Merger Consideration that any such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to this Article II.

(e) No dividends or other distributions on Horizon common stock with a record date occurring after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Old Certificate representing shares of WBKC Common Stock until the holder thereof surrenders such Old Certificates in accordance with this Article II. After becoming so entitled in accordance with this Section 2.05, the record holder thereof also shall be entitled to receive any dividends or other distributions, without any interest thereon, that were previously payable with respect to shares of Horizon common stock that such holder had the right to receive upon surrender of the Old Certificate.

(f) The stock transfer books of WBKC shall be closed at the Effective Time, and from and after the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer records of WBKC of any shares of WBKC Common Stock. If, after the Effective Time, Old Certificates are presented to Horizon, they shall be canceled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to this Agreement in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Article II.

(g) Horizon shall be entitled to rely upon WBKC’s stock transfer books to establish the identity of those individuals, partnerships, corporations, trusts, joint ventures, organizations, or other entities (each, a “Person”) entitled to receive the Merger Consideration, which books

shall be conclusive with respect thereto. In the event of a dispute with respect to ownership of stock represented by any Old Certificate, Horizon shall be entitled to deposit any Merger Consideration represented thereby in escrow with an independent third party selected by Horizon and thereafter be relieved from any and all liability with respect to any claims thereto.

(h) If any Old Certificate shall have been lost, stolen, or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Old Certificate to be lost, stolen, or destroyed and, if required by Horizon, the posting by such Person of a bond or other indemnity satisfactory to Horizon as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Old Certificate, Horizon will issue in exchange for such affidavit of lost, stolen, or destroyed Old Certificate, the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to, and in accordance with, the other terms and conditions of this Article II.

(i) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, at the Effective Time, all shares of WBKC Common Stock that are held as treasury stock of WBKC or owned by Horizon (other than shares held in a fiduciary capacity or in satisfaction of a debt previously contracted) shall be canceled and shall cease to exist, and no stock of Horizon or other consideration shall be exchanged therefor.

(j) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no party hereto, nor the Exchange Agent, shall be liable to any former holder of WBKC Common Stock for any amount properly delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat, or similar laws.

(k) If outstanding Old Certificates are not surrendered or the payment for them is not claimed prior to the date on which the Merger Consideration payable therefor would otherwise escheat to, or become the property of any governmental unit or agency, the unclaimed Merger Consideration shall, to the extent permitted by abandoned property and any other applicable law, become the property of Horizon (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 thereto. Any former shareholder of WBKC who has not theretofore complied with this Article II shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation for payment of the Merger Consideration and any unpaid dividends and distributions on Horizon’s Common Stock deliverable in respect of each former share of WBKC Common Stock such shareholder holds as determined pursuant to this Agreement, in each case, without any interest thereon. Neither the Exchange Agent nor any party to this Agreement shall be liable to any holder of shares of WBKC Common Stock for any Merger Consideration properly delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat, or similar laws.

On or prior to the date hereof, WBKC has delivered to Horizon a schedule (the “WBKC Disclosure Schedule”) setting forth, among other things, items the disclosure of which is necessary or appropriate either in response to an express disclosure requirement contained in a provision hereof or as an exception to one or more representations or warranties contained in this Article III or to one or more of its covenants contained in Article V. However, for purposes of the WBKC Disclosure Schedule, any item disclosed on any schedule therein is deemed to be

fully disclosed with respect to other sections of this Agreement under which such item may be relevant, but only to the extent that it is reasonably clear on the face of such schedule that such item applies to such other section of this Agreement, and such item is described in sufficient detail to enable Horizon to identify the items to which it applies.

For the purpose of this Agreement, and in relation to WBKC, a “Material Adverse Effect” means any effect that (i) is material and adverse to the results of operations, properties, assets, liabilities, conditions (financial or otherwise), value, or business of WBKC and its Subsidiaries (as defined below in this introduction to Article III) on a consolidated basis, or (ii) would materially impair the ability of WBKC or any of its Subsidiaries to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any related agreement or otherwise materially threaten or materially impede the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that Material Adverse Effect on WBKC shall not be deemed to include the impact of (a) changes in banking and similar laws of general applicability to banks, savings associations, or their holding companies or interpretations thereof by courts or governmental authorities, (b) changes in United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) or regulatory accounting requirements applicable to banks, savings associations or their holding companies generally, (c) effects of any action or omission taken with the prior written consent of Horizon or at the direction of Horizon, (d) the expenses incurred by WBKC and Wolverine Bank in negotiating, documenting, effecting, and consummating the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (e) the announcement of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, and the effect of compliance with this Agreement, on the business, financial condition, or results of operations of WBKC and its Subsidiaries, (f) any changes in general economic or capital market conditions affecting banks, savings associations and their holding companies generally, including, without limitation, changes in interest rates, and (g) changes in national or international political or social conditions, including the engagement by the United States in hostilities, whether or not pursuant to the declaration of a national emergency or war, or the occurrence of any military or terrorist attack upon or within the United States, or any of its territories, possessions or diplomatic or consular offices, or upon any military installation, equipment, or personnel of the United States, unless it uniquely affects WBKC or any of its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

(g) For purposes of this Agreement, “Intellectual Property” shall mean all patents, trademarks, trade names, service marks, domain names, social media handles and related accounts, database rights, copyrights and any applications therefor, mask works, technology, know-how, trade secrets, ideas, algorithms, processes, computer software programs or applications (in both source code and object code form) (collectively, “Software”), and tangible or intangible proprietary information or material and all other intellectual property or proprietary rights of any kind, whether or not registered.

    3.28 Information Security.  The computers, Software, computer programs, in source code and object code forms, servers, workstations, routers, hubs, switches, circuits, networks, data communications lines, repair and refurbishment equipment, and all other information technology equipment owned, used, or held for use by WBKC or Wolverine Bank (collectively, “WBKC IT Assets”) (i) operate and perform, in all material respects, in accordance with their documentation and functional specifications and otherwise as required for the conduct of WBKC’s and Wolverine Bank’s businesses and have not materially malfunctioned or failed within the past three (3) years; and (ii) do not contain any Defective Code, Malicious Code, or open source code, other than any such Defective Code, Malicious Code, or open source code which does not or could not have a Material Adverse Effect on WBKC.

WBKC and its Subsidiaries have devised and maintain a system of internal controls sufficient, in the reasonable opinion of management of WBKC and Wolverine Bank, to maintain its Information System, as defined in the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (“2013 Framework”), to meet the standards for Information Systems under the COSO 2013 Framework and have achieved a “baseline” maturity level in all domains according to the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (“FFIEC”) Cybersecurity Assessment Tool.

    3.30 Bank Secrecy and Anti-Money Laundering Compliance.  During the last three (3) years, neither WBKC nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any notice or communication from any regulatory authority alleging violation of, or noncompliance with, any legal requirement concerning bank secrecy or anti-money laundering, including the Currency and Foreign Transactions Reporting Act, the Money Laundering Control Act of 1986, Annunzio-Wylie Anti-Money Laundering Act, the Money Laundering Suppression Act of 1994, and the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (also known as the USA PATRIOT Act) (each such legal requirement and the rules promulgated thereunder, a “BSA/AML Law”). WBKC and its Subsidiaries have not been cited, fined, or otherwise notified of any failure by it to comply with a BSA/AML Law which has not been cured. To the knowledge of WBKC and its Subsidiaries, there are no facts or circumstances that could form the basis for assertion of any proceeding against WBKC or its Subsidiaries under any BSA/AML Law that, if determined adversely to WBKC or its Subsidiaries, would reasonably be likely, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect on WBKC.

    3.31 Agreements with Regulatory Agencies.  Except as set forth in Section 3.31 of the WBKC Disclosure Schedule, neither WBKC nor any of its Subsidiaries is subject to any cease-and-desist, consent order or other order, or enforcement action 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 subject to any order or directive by, or has been ordered to pay any civil money penalty by, or has been, during the preceding five (5) years, a recipient of any supervisory letter from, or, during the preceding five (5) years, has adopted any policies, procedures, or board resolutions at the request or suggestion of any regulatory agency or other governmental entity that currently restricts (or restricted), in any material respect, the conduct of its business or that in any material manner relates to its capital adequacy, its ability to pay dividends, its credit or risk management policies, its management, or its business, other than those of general application that apply to similarly situated bank holding companies or their subsidiaries (a “WBKC Regulatory Agreement”), nor has WBKC or any of its Subsidiaries been advised, during the preceding five (5) years, by any regulatory agency or other governmental entity that it is considering issuing, initiating, ordering, or requesting any such WBKC Regulatory Agreement. There are no refunds or restitutions required to be paid or corrective actions (including items designated as “matters requiring attention”) required to be taken as a result of any criticism of any regulatory agency or body cited in any examination report of WBKC or any of its Subsidiaries as a result of an examination by any regulatory agency or body, or set forth in any accountant’s or auditor’s report to WBKC or any of its Subsidiaries.

    3.32 Approval Delays.  To WBKC’s knowledge, as of the date hereof, there is no reason why the granting of any of the Regulatory Approvals (as defined in Section 7.01(e)) would be denied or unduly delayed.

    3.33 Internal Controls.  WBKC and its Subsidiaries have devised and maintain a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurances regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. During the preceding three (3) years, (i) through the date hereof, neither WBKC nor any of its Subsidiaries has received or otherwise had or obtained knowledge of any material complaint, allegation, assertion, or claim, whether written or oral, regarding the

accounting or auditing practices, procedures, methodologies, or methods of WBKC or any of its Subsidiaries or their respective internal accounting controls, including any material complaint, allegation, assertion, or claim that WBKC or any of its Subsidiaries has engaged in questionable accounting or auditing practices, and (ii) no attorney representing WBKC or any of its Subsidiaries, whether or not employed by WBKC or any of its Subsidiaries, has reported evidence of a violation of securities laws, breach of fiduciary duty, or similar violation by WBKC or any of its officers, directors, employees, or agents to the Board of Directors of WBKC or any committee thereof or to any director or officer of WBKC.

    3.34 Fiduciary Accounts.  WBKC and each of its Subsidiaries has properly administered all accounts for which it acts as a fiduciary, including, without limitation, accounts for which it serves as a trustee, agent, custodian, personal representative, guardian, conservator, or investment advisor, in accordance with the terms of the governing documents and applicable laws and regulations. Neither WBKC nor any of its Subsidiaries, nor any of their respective directors, officers, or employees, has committed any breach of trust with respect to any fiduciary account, and the records for each such fiduciary account are true and correct and accurately reflect the assets of such fiduciary account.

    3.35 Fairness Opinion.  The board of directors of WBKC has received an opinion of KBW (which, if initially rendered verbally, has been or will be confirmed by a written opinion, dated the same date) to the effect that, as of the date of such opinion, and based upon and subject to the factors, assumptions and qualifications contained therein, the Merger Consideration to be received by the common stockholders of WBKC in the Merger is fair to such common stockholders, from a financial point of view. Such opinion has not been amended or rescinded as of the date of this Agreement..

    3.36 WBKC Securities and Exchange Commission Filings. For the past five (5) years, WBKC has filed all material reports and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) required to be filed by it (“WBKC SEC Reports”). All such WBKC SEC Reports were true, accurate, and complete in all material respects as of the dates of the WBKC SEC Reports, and no such filings contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements, at the time and in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not false or misleading. As of the date of this Agreement, there are no outstanding or unresolved comments in any comment letters received by WBKC, and to the knowledge of WBKC, none of the WBKC SEC Reports is the subject of any ongoing review by the SEC.

On or prior to the date hereof, Horizon has delivered to WBKC a schedule (the “Horizon Disclosure Schedule”) setting forth, among other things, items the disclosure of which is necessary or appropriate either in response to an express disclosure requirement contained in a provision hereof or as an exception to one or more representations or warranties contained in this Article IV or to one or more of its covenants contained in Article V or Article VI. However, for purposes of the Horizon Disclosure Schedule, any item disclosed on any schedule therein is deemed to be fully disclosed with respect to other sections of this Agreement under which such

item may be relevant, but only to the extent that it is reasonably clear on the face of such schedule that such item applies to such other section of this Agreement, and such item is described in sufficient detail to enable WBKC to identify the items to which it applies.

For the purpose of this Agreement, and in relation to Horizon and its Subsidiaries (as defined in this introduction to Article IV), a “Material Adverse Effect on Horizon” means any effect that (i) is material and adverse to the results of operations, properties, assets, liabilities, conditions (financial or otherwise), value, or business of Horizon and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, or (ii) would materially impair the ability of Horizon or any of its Subsidiaries to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any related agreement or otherwise materially threaten or materially impede the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that Material Adverse Effect on Horizon shall not be deemed to include the impact of (a) changes in banking and similar laws of general applicability to banks, savings associations, or their holding companies or interpretations thereof by courts or governmental authorities, (b) changes in GAAP or regulatory accounting requirements applicable to banks, savings associations, or their holding companies generally, (c) effects of any action or omission taken with the prior written consent of WBKC or at the direction of WBKC, (d) the announcement of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, and the effect of compliance with this Agreement, on the business, financial condition, or results of operations of Horizon and its Subsidiaries, (e) the expenses incurred by Horizon or Horizon Bank in negotiating, documenting, effecting, and consummating the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (f) any changes in general economic or capital market conditions affecting banks, savings associations, and their holding companies generally, including, without limitation, changes in interest rates, and (g) changes in national or international political or social conditions, including the engagement by the United States in hostilities, whether or not pursuant to the declaration of a national emergency or war, or the occurrence of any military or terrorist attack upon or within the United States, or any of its territories, possessions or diplomatic or consular offices, or upon any military installation, equipment, or personnel of the United States, unless it uniquely affects Horizon or any of its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

For the purpose of this Agreement, and in relation to Horizon and its Subsidiaries, “knowledge” means those facts that are actually known by the officers of Horizon who are listed on Section 4.0 of the Horizon Disclosure Schedule. Additionally, for the purpose of this Agreement, and in relation to Horizon, its “Subsidiaries” shall mean any entity which is required to be consolidated with Horizon for financial reporting purposes pursuant to GAAP.

None of Horizon or any of its Subsidiaries is delinquent in the payment of any material amount due pursuant to any trade payable, and each has properly accrued for such payables in accordance with GAAP, except where the failure to so accrue would not constitute a Material Adverse Effect on Horizon.

(a) There are no material claims, actions, suits, proceedings, mediations, arbitrations, or investigations pending or, to the knowledge of Horizon, threatened against Horizon or any of its Subsidiaries, and to Horizon’s knowledge there is no basis for any claim, action, suit, proceeding, litigation, arbitration, or investigation against Horizon or any of its Subsidiaries that individually or in the aggregate would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on Horizon.

in all material respects as of the dates of the Horizon SEC Reports, and no such filings contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements, at the time and in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not false or misleading.

    5.05 Accruals for Loan Loss Reserve and Expenses.

(a) Prior to the Effective Time, WBKC shall make and shall cause its Subsidiaries to make, consistent with GAAP and applicable banking laws and regulations, such appropriate accounting entries in its books and records and use reasonable best efforts to take such other actions as WBKC and its Subsidiaries shall deem to be necessary or desirable in anticipation of the Merger including, without limitation, accruals or the creation of reserves for employee benefits and Merger-related expenses.

(b) WBKC recognizes that Horizon may have adopted different loan and accounting policies and practices (including loan classifications and levels of loan loss allowances). Subject to applicable law (including without limitation applicable banking laws and regulations and GAAP), from and after the date hereof, WBKC shall consult and cooperate in good faith with Horizon with respect to conforming the loan and accounting policies and practices of WBKC to those policies and practices of Horizon for financial accounting and/or income tax reporting purposes, as reasonably specified in each case in writing from Horizon to WBKC, based upon such consultation and subject to the conditions in Section 5.05(d).

(c) Subject to applicable law (including without limitation applicable banking laws and regulations and GAAP), WBKC shall consult and cooperate in good faith with Horizon with respect to determining, as reasonably specified in a written notice from Horizon to WBKC, based upon such consultation and subject to the conditions in Section 5.05(d), the amount and the timing for recognizing for financial accounting and/or income tax reporting purposes of WBKC’s expenses of the Merger.

(e) WBKC’s representations, warranties, and covenants contained in this Agreement shall not be deemed to be untrue or breached in any respect for any purpose as a consequence of any modifications or changes undertaken at Horizon’s request in compliance with Section 5.05(d).

5.06 Acquisition Proposals.

(a) WBKC will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, and its and their respective officers, directors, and representatives (including KBW) to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing solicitations, discussions, or negotiations with any Person concerning an Acquisition Proposal (as defined in Section 5.06(e)). During the period from the date of this Agreement through the Effective Time, WBKC shall not terminate, amend, modify, or waive any material provision of any confidentiality or similar agreement to which WBKC or any of its Subsidiaries is a party (other than any involving Horizon).

(b) Except as permitted in this Section 5.06, WBKC shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and any of their respective directors, officers, and representatives (including KBW) not to, (i) solicit, initiate, or knowingly encourage or facilitate, or take any other action designed to, or that could reasonably be expected to, facilitate (including by way of furnishing non-public information) any inquiries with respect to an Acquisition Proposal, or (ii) initiate, participate in, or knowingly encourage any discussions or negotiations or otherwise knowingly cooperate in any way with any Person regarding an Acquisition Proposal; provided, however, that, at any time prior to obtaining the approval of the Merger by WBKC’s shareholders, if WBKC receives a bona fide Acquisition Proposal that the WBKC Board of Directors determines in good faith

constitutes or is reasonably likely to lead to a Superior Proposal (as defined in Section 5.06(f)) that was not solicited after the date hereof and did not otherwise result from a breach of WBKC’s obligations under this Section 5.06, WBKC may furnish, or cause to be furnished, non-public information with respect to WBKC and its Subsidiaries to the Person who made such proposal (provided that all such information has been provided to Horizon prior to or at the same time it is provided to such Person) and may participate in discussions and negotiations regarding such proposal if (A) the WBKC Board of Directors determines in good faith, and following consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisor, that failure to do so would be reasonably likely to result in a breach of its fiduciary duties to WBKC’s shareholders under applicable law, and (B) prior to taking such action, WBKC has used its reasonable best efforts to enter into a confidentiality agreement with such Person containing terms no less favorable to WBKC than those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement (as defined in Section 11.09) and which confidentiality agreement shall not provide such Person with any exclusive right to negotiate with WBKC. Without limiting the foregoing, it is agreed that any violation of the restrictions contained in the first sentence of this Section 5.06(b) by any representative (including KBW) of WBKC or its Subsidiaries shall be a breach of this Section 5.06 by WBKC.

(c) Neither the WBKC Board of Directors nor any committee thereof shall (or shall agree or resolve to) (i) fail to make, withdraw, or modify in a manner adverse to Horizon, or propose to withdraw or modify in a manner adverse to Horizon (or take any action inconsistent with), the recommendation by such WBKC Board of Directors or any such committee regarding this Agreement or the Merger, or approve or recommend, or propose to recommend, the approval or recommendation of any Acquisition Proposal (any of the foregoing being referred to herein as an “Adverse Recommendation Change”), or (ii) cause or permit WBKC or Wolverine Bank to enter into any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement, merger agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement, or other agreement (each, an “Acquisition Agreement”) constituting or related to, or which is intended to or would be reasonably likely to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal (other than a confidentiality agreement referred to in Section 5.06(b)). Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time prior to the special meeting of WBKC’s shareholders to approve the Merger, the WBKC Board of Directors may, in response to a Superior Proposal, effect an Adverse Recommendation Change, provided, that the WBKC Board of Directors determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisor, that the failure to do so would be reasonably likely to result in a breach of its fiduciary duties to the shareholders of WBKC under applicable Law, and provided, further, that the WBKC Board of Directors may not effect such an Adverse Recommendation Change unless (A) the WBKC Board shall have first provided prior written notice to Horizon (an “Adverse Recommendation Change Notice”) that it is prepared to effect an Adverse Recommendation Change in response to a Superior Proposal, which notice shall, in the case of a Superior Proposal, attach the most current version of any proposed written agreement or letter of intent relating to the transaction that constitutes such Superior Proposal (it being understood that any amendment to the financial terms or any other material term of such Superior Proposal shall require a new notice and a new five (5) business day period), and (B) Horizon does not make, within five (5) business days after receipt of such notice, a proposal that would, in the reasonable good faith judgment of the WBKC Board of Directors (after consultation with outside legal counsel and WBKC’s financial advisor), cause the offer previously constituting a

Superior Proposal to no longer constitute a Superior Proposal or that the Adverse Recommendation Change is no longer required in order to comply with the WBKC Board’s fiduciary duties to the shareholders of WBKC under applicable Law. WBKC agrees that, during the five (5) business day period prior to its effecting an Adverse Recommendation Change, WBKC and its officers, directors, and representatives shall negotiate in good faith with Horizon and its officers, directors, and representatives regarding any revisions to the terms of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement proposed by Horizon.

(d) In addition to the obligations of WBKC set forth in paragraphs (a), (b), and (c) of this Section 5.06, WBKC shall as promptly as possible, and in any event within two (2) business days after WBKC first obtains knowledge of the receipt thereof, advise Horizon orally and in writing of (i) any Acquisition Proposal or any request for information that WBKC reasonably believes could lead to or contemplates an Acquisition Proposal, or (ii) any inquiry WBKC reasonably believes could lead to any Acquisition Proposal, the terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry (including any subsequent amendment or other modification to such terms and conditions), and the identity of the Person making any such Acquisition Proposal or request, or inquiry. In connection with any such Acquisition Proposal, request, or inquiry, if there occurs or is presented to WBKC any offer, material change, modification, or development to a previously made offer, letter of intent, or any other material development, WBKC (or its outside counsel) shall (A) advise and confer with Horizon (or its outside counsel) regarding the progress of negotiations concerning any Acquisition Proposal, the material resolved and unresolved issues related thereto, and the material terms (including material amendments or proposed amendments as to price and other material terms) of any such Acquisition Proposal, request, or inquiry, and (B) promptly upon receipt or delivery thereof, provide Horizon with true, correct, and complete copies of any document or communication related thereto.

(e) For purposes of this Agreement, “Acquisition Proposal” shall mean (i) any inquiry, proposal, or offer from any Person or group of Persons (other than as contemplated by this Agreement) relating to, or that could reasonably be expected to lead to, any direct or indirect acquisition or purchase, in one transaction or a series of transactions, of (A) assets or businesses that constitute 25% or more of the revenues, net income, or assets of WBKC and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (B) 25% or more of any class of equity securities of WBKC or any of its Subsidiaries; (ii) any tender offer or exchange offer that, if consummated, would result in any Person beneficially owning 25% or more of any class of equity securities of WBKC or any of its Subsidiaries; (iii) any merger, consolidation, business combination, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution, joint venture, binding share exchange, or similar transaction involving WBKC, Wolverine Bank, or any of its other Subsidiaries pursuant to which any Person or the shareholders of any Person would own 25% or more of any class of equity securities of WBKC, Wolverine Bank, or any of WBKC’s other Subsidiaries or of any resulting parent company of WBKC or Wolverine Bank; or (iv) any other transaction the consummation of which could reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with, prevent, or materially delay the Merger or that could reasonably be expected to dilute materially the benefits to Horizon of the transactions contemplated hereby, other than the transactions contemplated hereby. For purposes of this Section 5.06, a “Person” shall include a natural Person, or any legal, commercial, or Governmental Authority, including, a corporation, general

partnership, joint venture, limited partnership, limited liability company, trust, business association, group acting in concert, or any Person acting in a representative capacity.

(f) For purposes of this Agreement, “Superior Proposal” shall mean any Acquisition Proposal (but changing the references to “25% or more” in the definition of “Acquisition Proposal” to “50% or more”) that the WBKC Board determines in good faith (after having received the advice of its financial advisor), to be (i) materially more favorable to the shareholders of WBKC from a financial point of view and its other constituencies than the Merger (taking into account all the terms and conditions of such proposal and this Agreement (including any break-up fees, expense reimbursement provisions, and conditions to consummation and any changes to the financial terms of this Agreement proposed by Horizon in response to such offer or otherwise)), and (ii) reasonably capable of being completed without undue delay taking into account all financial, legal, regulatory, and other aspects of such proposal.

    5.07 Press Releases.  Horizon and WBKC shall use reasonable best efforts (i) to develop a joint communications plan with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) to ensure that all press releases and other public statements with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consistent with such joint communications plan, and (iii) except where (and to the extent that) such prior consultation is not reasonably possible due to time considerations in respect of any announcement required by applicable law or by obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with or rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market, to consult with each other before issuing any press release or otherwise making any public statement with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

    5.08 Changes and Supplements to Disclosure Schedules.  WBKC shall promptly supplement, amend, and update, upon the occurrence of any change prior to the Effective Time, and as of the Effective Time, the WBKC Disclosure Schedule with respect to any matters or events hereafter arising which, if in existence or having occurred as of the date of this Agreement, would have been required to be set forth or described in the WBKC Disclosure Schedule or this Agreement and including, without limitation, any fact which, if existing or known as of the date hereof, would have made any of the representations or warranties of WBKC contained herein materially incorrect, untrue, or misleading. No such supplement, amendment, or update shall have any effect for the purposes of determining satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Article VII.

    5.09 Failure to Fulfill Conditions.  In the event WBKC determines that a condition to its obligation to complete the Merger cannot be fulfilled and that it will not waive that condition, it will promptly notify Horizon.

    5.10 Access; Information.

(a) Horizon and WBKC, and their representatives and agents, shall, upon reasonable notice to the other party, at all times during normal business hours prior to the Effective Time, have reasonable access to the properties, facilities, operations, books, and records of the other party (other than minutes that discuss any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement). Horizon and WBKC, and their representatives and agents, may, prior to the Effective Time, make or cause to be made such reasonable investigation of the operations, books, records, and

properties of the other party and their Subsidiaries and of their financial and legal condition as deemed necessary or advisable to familiarize themselves with such operations, books, records, properties, and other matters; provided, however, that such access or investigation shall not interfere unnecessarily with the normal business operations of WBKC or Horizon or either of their Subsidiaries; provided further, neither WBKC, Horizon, nor any of their Subsidiaries shall be required to take any action that would provide access to or to disclose information where such access or disclosure would violate or prejudice the rights of any customer or other person or would result in the waiver by any of them of the privilege protecting communications between any of them and any of their counsel. In addition, after receipt of all Regulatory Approvals and the necessary shareholders’ approval, WBKC shall cooperate with Horizon to facilitate introductions to Wolverine Bank’s customers and key business partners and referral sources.

(b) No investigation by Horizon or WBKC shall affect the representations and warranties made by WBKC or Horizon herein.

(c) Any confidential information or trade secrets received by Horizon, WBKC, or their representatives or agents in the course of such examination will be treated confidentially, and any correspondence, memoranda, records, copies, documents, and electronic or other media of any kind containing such confidential information or trade secrets or both shall be destroyed by Horizon or WBKC, as applicable, or at Horizon’s or WBKC’s request, returned to Horizon or WBKC, as applicable, in the event this Agreement is terminated as provided in Article VIII hereof; provided, however, that the parties may retain such received confidential information to comply with applicable law or regulation or professional standard or bona fide internal compliance policy requirements and any such retained information must be treated confidentially. Additionally, any confidential information or trade secrets received by Horizon or WBKC, or either of their agents or representatives, in the course of their examinations (whether conducted prior to or after the date of this Agreement) shall be treated confidentially and in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement (as defined in Section 11.09). This Section 5.10 will not require the disclosure of any information to Horizon or WBKC which would be prohibited by law or regulation.

(d) WBKC shall also provide Horizon with copies of minutes and consents from all Board of Director and committee meetings no later than two (2) business days after such minutes are approved at the next monthly meeting of the Board of Directors (other than minutes that discuss any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and other than portions of minutes that contain information that is expressly exempt from disclosure pursuant to this Section 5.10).

    5.11 Financial Statements.  As soon as internally available after the date of this Agreement, WBKC will deliver to Horizon any additional audited consolidated financial statements which are prepared on its behalf or at its direction, the monthly consolidated unaudited balance sheets and profit and loss statements of WBKC prepared for its internal use, Wolverine Bank’s Call Reports for each quarterly period completed prior to the Effective Time, all other financial reports or statements submitted to regulatory authorities after the date hereof, and all other financial statements and financial information reasonably requested by Horizon (collectively, “Subsequent WBKC Financial Statements”). The Subsequent WBKC Financial Statements will be prepared on a basis consistent with past accounting practices and GAAP (to

the extent applicable) and shall present fairly the financial condition and results of operations as of the dates and for the periods presented (except in the case of unaudited financial statements or Call Report information for the absence of notes and/or year‑end adjustments).

    5.12 Environmental.  If requested by Horizon, WBKC will cooperate with an environmental consulting firm designated by Horizon (the “Designated Environmental Consultant”) in connection with the conduct, at any time after the date hereof (the “Investigation Period”), by the Designated Environmental Consultant of Phase I environmental site assessments and any other investigation reasonably requested by Horizon on all real property (except single family, non-agricultural residential property of one acre or less) owned or leased by WBKC or any of its Subsidiaries as of the date of this Agreement or acquired thereafter, including OREO, to the extent not prohibited by any lease governing Wolverine Bank’s lease of any branch. Horizon will proceed with such assessments, testing, and investigations as soon as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement and will diligently work to pursue such assessments, testing, and investigations through completion. Horizon shall furnish true and complete copies of any reports of the Designated Environmental Consultant that it receives with respect to any WBKC property, promptly upon Horizon’s receipt of such reports. Horizon shall be responsible for the costs of the Phase I environmental site assessments, and Horizon and WBKC shall each bear 50% of the costs of any additional environmental investigation or testing as determined to be advisable or recommended by the Designated Environmental Consultant as a result of an actual or suspected “Recognized Environmental Condition” (as such term is defined by the American Society for Testing Materials).

    5.13 Governmental Reports and Shareholder Information.  Promptly upon its becoming available, WBKC shall furnish to Horizon one (1) copy of each financial statement, report, notice, or proxy statement sent by WBKC to any Governmental Authority or to WBKC’s shareholders, and of any order issued by any Governmental Authority in any proceeding to which WBKC is a party. For purposes of this Agreement, “Governmental Authority” shall mean any government (or any political subdivision or jurisdiction thereof), court, bureau, agency, or other governmental entity having or asserting jurisdiction over the applicable party or its business, operations, or properties.

    5.14 Adverse Actions.  During the period from the date of this Agreement to the Effective Time, except with the written consent of Horizon, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, WBKC will, and it will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to preserve intact its business organization and assets and maintain its rights and franchises, and voluntarily take no action that would: (i) adversely affect the ability of the parties to obtain the Regulatory Approvals or materially increase the period of time necessary to obtain such approvals; (ii) adversely affect its ability to perform its covenants and agreements under this Agreement in any material respect; or (iii) result in the representations and warranties contained in Article III of this Agreement not being true and correct on the date of this Agreement or at any future date on or prior to the Closing Date (subject to the standards set forth in Section 7.01(a) hereof) or in any of the conditions set forth in Article VII hereof not being satisfied; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be deemed to require WBKC to take any action which would otherwise violate any other provision of this Agreement.

    5.15 Employee Benefits and Employees.

(a) Neither the terms of Section 6.03 hereof nor the provision of any employee benefits by Horizon or any of its Subsidiaries to employees of WBKC or any of its Subsidiaries shall: (a) create any employment contract, agreement, or understanding with or employment rights for, or constitute a commitment or obligation of employment to, any of the officers or employees of WBKC or any of its Subsidiaries; or (b) prohibit or restrict Horizon or its Subsidiaries, whether before or after the Effective Time, from changing, amending, or terminating any employee benefits provided to its employees from time to time.

(b) Before the date that is forty-five (45) days after the public announcement of the Merger, Horizon will use its reasonable best efforts to notify WBKC of the employees Horizon intends to retain after the Effective Time. Prior to the Closing Date, WBKC shall be responsible for timely giving any notices to, and terminating (but in no event earlier than the date all Regulatory Approvals are received), any employees whose employment will not be continued by Horizon, and Horizon or WBKC shall pay any and all amounts which are due and payable to such employees in connection with the termination of their employment, including, without limitation, all accrued vacation and sick pay and the severance amounts contemplated by Section 6.03(h) of this Agreement.

(c) Before Closing, with WBKC’s prior consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), Horizon may conduct such training and other programs as it may, in its reasonable discretion and at its sole expense, elect to provide for those employees who will be continuing employment with Horizon; provided, however, that such training and other programs shall not materially interfere with or prevent the performance of the normal business operations of WBKC.

    5.16 Amendment and Termination of Bank ESOP.

(a) WBKC shall make contributions to the Bank ESOP between the date hereof and the Effective Time consistent with the terms of the Bank ESOP and past practices, including, without limitation, any contributions required pursuant to the terms and conditions of the ESOP Loan Documents.

(b) No later than ten (10) days prior to the Closing Date, WBKC, pursuant to the provisions of the Bank ESOP, shall, subject to review and approval by Horizon: (i) adopt resolutions to terminate, subject to the consummation of the Merger, the Bank ESOP, effective as of the Closing Date (the “ESOP Termination Date”); (ii) amend the Bank ESOP effective as of a date not later than the ESOP Termination Date to freeze participation under the Bank ESOP and to provide that no distributions of accrued benefits shall be made from the Bank ESOP, or its related employee benefit trust, subsequent to the ESOP Termination Date until such time as the Internal Revenue Service issues a favorable determination letter to the effect that the plan termination does not adversely affect the Bank ESOP’s qualification for favorable income tax treatment under the Code, except distributions may be made earlier if required by the terms of the Bank ESOP upon the occurrence of retirement, death, disability, or termination of employment, or any other event, other than the plan termination, that requires a distribution from the Bank ESOP; (iii) amend the Bank ESOP to provide that the excess of the proceeds from the sale or remittance of shares of WBKC Common Stock held by the Bank ESOP in the

Bank ESOP’s unallocated suspense account (“Suspense Shares”) over the unpaid principal and accrued interest of the Exempt Note attributable to the Suspense Shares shall (after repayment of the Exempt Note as contemplated in Section 5.16(c) of this Agreement) be allocated to the accounts of the Bank ESOP’s active participants according to each active participant’s proportionate Bank ESOP account balance as of the day before the ESOP Termination Date.

(c) As soon as practicable following the execution of this Agreement, WBKC will file, or cause to be filed, with the Internal Revenue Service an application for a favorable determination letter upon termination of the Bank ESOP requesting the issuance to WBKC of the favorable determination letter described in Section 5.16(b). A copy of the completed and filed application shall be provided to Horizon at least five (5) business days prior to the Effective Time.  On the Closing Date, immediately prior to the Effective Time, WBKC shall direct the Trustee of the Bank ESOP to cause the unpaid principal balance and accrued interest through the Closing Date of the Exempt Note (such unpaid principal and accrued interest shall be referred to as the “ESOP Loan Balance”) to be repaid by remitting a sufficient number of Suspense Shares to WBKC or any other lender (including Horizon, as successor in interest to WBKC, as applicable) to repay the ESOP Loan Balance, with each remitted share to be valued in an amount equal to the cash equivalent of the Merger Consideration.  All remaining shares of WBKC Common Stock held by the ESOP (including the remaining Suspense Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration.

(d) Following the Effective Time, Horizon shall use its reasonable best efforts in good faith to obtain the Internal Revenue Service favorable determination letter as promptly as possible, including adopting any amendments to the Bank ESOP that may be required by the Internal Revenue Service. As soon as practicable following the receipt of a favorable determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service regarding the tax-qualified status of the Bank ESOP upon its termination, the remaining account balances in the Bank ESOP shall either be distributed to participants and beneficiaries or rolled over to an eligible tax-qualified retirement plan or individual retirement account as a participant or beneficiary may direct.

(e) On or before the Effective Time, the Bank ESOP Committee shall have directed Pentegra Trust Company (the “ESOP Trustee”), as directed trustee of the Bank ESOP, to (i) provide to the Bank ESOP participants similar notices and materials provided to other WBKC shareholders with respect to those matters requiring a vote of the shareholders under this Agreement; (ii) obtain direction from the Bank ESOP’s participants as to how to vote those shares of WBKC Common Stock allocated to the accounts of the Bank ESOP’s participants with respect to those matters for which a shareholder vote is required under this Agreement; (iii) vote those shares of WBKC Common Stock in accordance with the direction of the Bank ESOP’s participants and in accordance with the Bank ESOP; and (iv) vote the Suspense Shares and allocated shares of WBKC Common Stock for which no participant investment direction has been timely received by the ESOP Trustee in accordance with the Bank ESOP.

(f) WBKC shall continue in full force and effect, until the Effective Time: (i) the fidelity bond, if any, issued to WBKC as described in ERISA Section 412; and (ii) the ERISA fiduciary liability insurance policy currently in effect, if any, for the benefit of the covered fiduciaries of the Bank ESOP.

(g) As soon as practicable following the execution of this Agreement, Horizon will amend the Horizon Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the “Horizon ESOP”) to permit Continuing Employees to enter the Horizon ESOP as of the Effective Time, and Continuing Employees will be credited with prior years of service with WBKC for purposes of eligibility and vesting (but not benefit accruals).

    5.17 Termination of Wolverine Bank 401(k) Plan.

(a) WBKC maintains the Bank 401(k) Plan. WBKC shall make contributions to the Bank 401(k) Plan between the date hereof and the Effective Time consistent with the terms of the Bank 401(k) Plan and past practices, including, without limitation, elective deferral contributions of those Bank 401(k) Plan participants who are employed by WBKC or its Subsidiaries.

(b) As soon as practicable following the execution of this Agreement, WBKC, pursuant to the provisions of the Bank 401(k) Plan, shall, subject to review and approval by Horizon: (i) adopt resolutions to terminate, subject to the consummation of the Merger, the Bank 401(k) Plan effective as of a date that is not later than the day before the Effective Time (the “Plan Termination Date”) and to provide that the 401(k) Trustee shall designate the then- current Horizon 401(k) plan trustee as the named fiduciary with respect to the Bank 401(k) Plan until assets of the Bank 401(k) Plan are distributed fully, and (ii) amend the Bank 401(k) Plan effective as of a date not later than the Plan Termination Date to freeze participation in and benefit accruals under the Bank 401(k) Plan, to vest fully all accrued benefits, and to provide that no distributions of accrued benefits shall be made from the Bank 401(k) Plan, or its related employee benefit trust, subsequent to the Plan Termination Date until such time as the Internal Revenue Service issues a favorable determination letter to the effect that the plan termination does not adversely affect the Bank 401(k) Plan’s qualification for favorable income tax treatment under the Code, except distributions may be made earlier if required by the terms of the Bank 401(k) Plan upon the occurrence of retirement, death, disability, or termination of employment, or any other event, other than the plan termination, that requires a distribution from the Bank 401(k) Plan. Notwithstanding the preceding provisions, participants with outstanding plan loans under the Bank 401(k) Plan as of the Effective Time shall be permitted to continue repaying such outstanding loans (subject to the terms and conditions of such plan and the related loan procedures) on and after the Effective Time and until such time as plan termination distributions are paid pursuant to the preceding sentence. At such time as the loans are required to be repaid or will be taxed to the borrower if not repaid (the “401(k) Loan Repayment Date”), Horizon, if any, shall cause loans to be made, outside of any tax‑qualified retirement plan, to those WBKC employees who had loans outstanding under the Bank 401(k) Plan as of the 401(k) Loan Repayment Date, in an amount not to exceed the outstanding loan balance as of the 401(k) Loan Repayment Date, provided that any such WBKC employee completes any necessary documentation and is determined to qualify for such loan under applicable loan policies and underwriting standards of Horizon. Each such refinancing loan shall have a fixed rate of interest not to exceed four percent (4.0%) per annum and shall have an amortization period not to exceed the remaining term of the loan granted under the Bank 401(k) Plan.

(c) As soon as practicable following the execution of this Agreement, WBKC will file, or cause to be filed, with the Internal Revenue Service an application for a favorable

determination letter upon termination of the Bank 401(k) Plan (IRS Form 5310 and related attachments) requesting the issuance to WBKC of the favorable determination letter described in Section 5.17(b). A copy of the completed and filed IRS Form 5310 shall be provided to Horizon at least five (5) business days prior to the Effective Time.  Following the Effective Time, Horizon shall use its reasonable best efforts in good faith to obtain the Internal Revenue Service favorable determination letter as promptly as possible, including adopting any amendments to the Bank 401(k) Plan that may be required by the Internal Revenue Service. As soon as practicable following the receipt of a favorable determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service regarding the tax-qualified status of the Bank 401(k) Plan upon its termination, the remaining account balances in the Bank 401(k) Plan shall either be distributed to participants and beneficiaries or transferred to an eligible tax-qualified retirement plan or individual retirement account as a participant or beneficiary may direct.

(d) Any contributions due to the Bank 401(k) Plan for the period prior to the Plan Termination Date, and not yet paid on the Plan Termination Date, will be contributed by WBKC, or by Horizon Bank if after the Effective Time, as soon as administratively feasible following the Plan Termination Date.

(e) WBKC shall continue in full force and effect, until the Effective Time: (i) the fidelity bond, if any, issued to WBKC as described in ERISA Section 412; and (ii) the ERISA fiduciary liability insurance policy currently in effect, if any, for the benefit of the covered fiduciaries of the Bank 401(k) Plan.

(f) On or before the Effective Time, WBKC shall have directed the 401(k) Trustee or plan administrators to (i) provide to the Bank 401(k) Plan participants similar notices and materials provided to other WBKC shareholders with respect to those matters requiring a vote of the shareholders under this Agreement; (ii) obtain direction from the Bank 401(k) Plan participants as to how to vote those shares of WBKC Common Stock allocated to the accounts of the Bank 401(k) Plan participants with respect to those matters for which a shareholder vote is required under this Agreement; (iii) vote those shares of WBKC Common Stock in accordance with the Bank 401(k) Plan participants and in accordance with the Bank 401(k) Plan; and (iv) vote the shares of WBKC Common Stock for which no participant investment direction has been timely received by the 401(k) Trustee or plan administrators in accordance with the Bank 401(k) Plan.

(g) As soon as practicable following the execution of this Agreement, Horizon will amend the Horizon Employees’ Thrift Plan (“Horizon 401(k) Plan”) to permit Continuing Employees to enter the Horizon 401(k) Plan as of the Effective Time, and Continuing Employees will be credited with prior years of service with WBKC for purposes of eligibility and vesting (but not benefit accruals). Horizon agrees to permit Bank 401(k) Plan participants who become employees of Horizon to roll over their account balances in the Bank 401(k) Plan to the Horizon 401(k) Plan, subject to the terms of the Horizon 401(k) Plan, including any rollover restrictions.

    5.18 Disposition of Welfare Benefit and Sec. 125 Plans.

(a) All fully insured welfare benefit (health, dental, vision, prescription drug, EAP, life/AD&D, LTD) and Internal Revenue Code Section 125, or “cafeteria,” plans currently

sponsored by WBKC or Wolverine Bank shall be terminated as of the Effective Time, unless Horizon determines that any such plan shall be continued past the Effective Time. WBKC shall take, or cause to be taken, all actions necessary to terminate all of WBKC’s and any Subsidiary’s group insurance policies as of the Effective Time, unless otherwise instructed in writing by Horizon.

(b) As of the Effective Time, and to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, WBKC shall take, or cause to be taken, all actions necessary to assign any and all applicable group insurance policies to Horizon and to provide Horizon all necessary financial, enrollment, eligibility, contractual, and other information related to its welfare benefit and cafeteria plans to assist Horizon in the administration of such plans, unless Horizon determines that any or all of the group insurance policies should be terminated as of the Effective Time.

(c) From the date of this Agreement through the Effective Time, WBKC shall continue to: (i) pay the applicable insurance premiums necessary to continue the benefits under WBKC’s fully insured welfare benefit plans; (ii) contribute to the cafeteria plan the pre-tax amounts which the cafeteria plan participants elect to defer from compensation; and (iii) pay all eligible claims incurred, in accordance with the terms and conditions of such plan, under the cafeteria plan’s health and dependent care flexible spending accounts prior to the Effective Time.

(d) As of the date of the termination of the WBKC cafeteria plan, if any, and if directed by Horizon, the balances in the health flexible spending accounts of Continuing Employees thereunder shall be transferred to the applicable components of the Horizon cafeteria plan. Benefit and compensation deferral elections in effect at that time shall be continued under the Horizon cafeteria plan, subject to subsequent changes as provided in the Horizon plan. All benefit payments related to the transferred balances shall be made in accordance with the Horizon cafeteria plan.

5.19 Long-Term Incentive Plans.  At the Effective Time, Horizon shall assume those certain Long-Term Incentive Plans with David H. Dunn and Rick A. Rosinski (collectively, the “LTIPs”) and the timing and amount of the payments thereunder will be made in accordance with the LTIP plan documents and election forms, as detailed in Section 5.19 of the WBKC Disclosure Schedule. WBKC agrees to amend the LTIPs effective as soon as administratively feasible after the date of this Agreement to: (i) delete the provisions which permit  the election of subsequent voluntary deferral periods (including the subsequent deferral of any installment payments); (ii) prohibit WBKC, Horizon or any affiliate or successor from terminating the LTIPs and/or accelerate the timing of payments thereunder without participant consent; and (iii) permit current LTIP owners to make deemed investment elections for amounts payable under the LTIPs (with the investment options of cash or Horizon common stock), including amounts previously credited to the Stock Units Accounts under the LTIPs (subject to the ability of Horizon to override the investment elections at its sole discretion). Horizon and WBKC agree that all amounts payable under the LTIPs as of the Closing Date will be maintained by Horizon or any affiliate or successor in a separate irrevocable grantor trust (which shall meet the requirements of Internal Revenue Service Revenue Procedure 92-65, as amended or superseded from time to time), the trustee of which grantor trust shall be determined by Horizon at the Effective Time, and all payments due under such LTIPs will be made from such trust in accordance with the LTIPs and applicable election forms, provided that the current owners of the LTIPs shall be

provided the opportunity to make deemed investment elections applicable to amounts payable under the LTIPs following the completion of the Merger.

    5.20 Change in Control Payments, Mutual Termination of Employment Agreements and New Employment Agreements; Honoring WBKC Plans.  WBKC will pay out all amounts payable upon a change in control pursuant to the employment agreements between Wolverine Bank and (i) David H. Dunn, dated July 1, 2016, and (ii) Rick A. Rosinski, dated July 1, 2016 (collectively, the “Employment Agreements”), as identified in the WBKC Disclosure Schedule, as if the change in control payments contemplated by the Employment Agreements had been triggered by the Merger, provided, however, that, if required, all such agreements shall be amended with the written consent of the affected parties prior to the Effective Time to ensure and expressly provide that no payment shall be made under such agreements or under any other plan, arrangement or agreement applicable to the individual that would constitute an “excess parachute payment” (as such term is defined in Section 280G of the Code), and to the extent any such payment would constitute an “excess parachute payment,” the payment will be reduced to $1.00 less than the amount that would be considered an “excess parachute payment.” The payment of such amounts shall be contingent upon each of the two (2) above-named officers entering into (x) a mutual termination of employment agreement in a form reasonably acceptable to Horizon and executed concurrently with the execution of this Agreement (the “Mutual Termination of Employment Agreements”), and (y) an employment agreement with Horizon Bank in a form reasonably acceptable to Horizon and executed concurrently with the execution of this Agreement (the “Horizon Executive Employment Agreements”). The change in control payments will be made in a lump sum no later than the Closing Date.  Horizon shall honor the employment agreements between Wolverine Bank and (i) Brian Cherry, dated June 30, 2016; (ii) Jeremy Clark, dated December 15, 2016; and (iii) John W. Schmitt, dated June 30, 2016, and the WBKC Plans identified in the WBKC Disclosure Schedules, except to the such extent any such agreement or plan is superseded or terminated, as of, or following, the Effective Time.

    5.21 Subsidiary Merger, Commercial Holdings Termination and Wolserv Termination.  Prior to the Effective Time, WBKC shall, and shall cause each Subsidiary to, use its reasonable best efforts to take such action as necessary to (i) prepare to effectuate the Bank Merger as contemplated in Section 1.05 hereof; (ii) effectuate the Commercial Holdings Termination as contemplated in Section 1.06 hereof; (iii) effectuate the Wolserv Termination as contemplated in Section 1.07 hereof; and (iv) reconstitute the directors and officers of WBKC or any Subsidiary, amend the articles of incorporation or bylaws of WBKC or any Subsidiary, or make such other changes as Horizon may request if necessary to accomplish the same.

    5.22 Cooperation on Conversion of Systems. WBKC agrees to commence immediately after the date of this Agreement (and continue until Closing or completed) using its reasonable best efforts to ensure an orderly transfer of information, processes, systems, and data to Horizon and to otherwise assist Horizon in facilitating the conversion of all of WBKC’s systems into, or to conform with, Horizon’s systems (including cooperating with Horizon in the training of WBKC’s and its Subsidiaries’ employees on Horizon’s systems), so that, as of the Closing, the systems of WBKC are readily convertible to Horizon’s systems to the fullest extent possible without actually converting them prior to the Closing. WBKC and Horizon shall meet on a regular basis to discuss and plan for the conversion of WBKC’s data processing and related electronic informational systems to those used by Horizon, which planning shall include, without

limitation: (i) discussion of possible termination by WBKC of third-party service provider arrangements effective at or following the Effective Time; (ii) non-renewal of personal property leases and software licenses used by WBKC in connection with its systems operations; and (iii) retention of outside consultants and additional employees to assist with the conversion and outsourcing, as appropriate, of proprietary or self-provided system services.  In the event that WBKC takes, at the request of Horizon, any action relative to third parties to facilitate the conversion that results in the imposition of any fees, expenses or charges, Horizon Bank shall pay any such fees, expenses and charges directly to such third parties.

    5.23 Installation/Conversion of Equipment; Training.  Prior to Closing, at times mutually agreeable to Horizon and WBKC, Horizon may, at Horizon’s sole expense, install teller equipment, platform equipment, security equipment, and computers, at the WBKC and Wolverine Bank offices, branches, and ATM locations, and WBKC shall cooperate with Horizon in connection with such installation; provided, however, that such installations shall not interfere with the normal business activities and operations of WBKC or Wolverine Bank or require material alterations to WBKC’s or Wolverine Bank’s facilities; provided further, in the event of the termination of this Agreement, Horizon shall remove all such installed computers and equipment at Horizon’s sole expense. In addition, prior to Closing, at times mutually agreeable to Horizon and WBKC, Horizon may conduct such training and other programs as it may, in its sole discretion and at its expense, elect to provide for those employees that Horizon elects to offer employment; provided, however, that such training and other programs shall not interfere with the normal business activities and operations of WBKC or Wolverine Bank.

Horizon covenants and agrees with WBKC and covenants and agrees to cause its Subsidiaries to act as follows (and, where applicable, WBKC covenants and agrees with Horizon as follows):

    6.01 Approvals.  Horizon shall have primary responsibility for the preparation, filing and costs of all bank regulatory applications required for consummation of the Merger (except those only applicable to WBKC or Wolverine Bank, if any), and all parties shall file such applications as promptly as practicable after the execution of this Agreement (provided that each party has timely provided all information requested in writing by the other party or its counsel), and in no event later than forty-five (45) days after the execution of this Agreement; provided, however, that the parties acknowledge and agree that Horizon has made application to convert Horizon Bank from a national bank to an Indiana-state chartered bank, and all regulatory applications may, at Horizon’s election, be filed after such conversion is consummated (presently anticipated to occur on or before June 30, 2017). Horizon shall provide WBKC and its counsel appropriate opportunity to review and comment on such bank regulatory applications, including any supplements or amendments to such filings and all responses for additional information and replies to comments, prior to such filings being filed with a bank regulatory agency. Horizon shall promptly notify WBKC upon the receipt of any comments on such bank regulatory agencies and shall provide WBKC with copies of all correspondence between Horizon and any bank regulatory agency.  Horizon and WBKC shall cooperate fully and use reasonable best efforts to procure, upon terms and conditions reasonably acceptable to each of them, all consents,

authorizations, approvals, registrations, and certificates, to complete all filings and applications and to satisfy all other requirements prescribed by law which are necessary for consummation of the Merger on the terms and conditions provided in this Agreement. Horizon agrees that it will consult with WBKC with respect to such consents, authorizations, approvals, registrations, and certificates, and agrees that it will keep WBKC apprised of the status of matters relating to completion of the transactions contemplated hereby.

    6.02 SEC Registration.

(a) For the purposes (x) of registering the Horizon Common Stock to be offered to holders of WBKC Common Stock in connection with the Merger with the SEC under the Securities Act and (y) of holding the WBKC shareholders meeting, as soon as practicable following the date of this Agreement, but no later than thirty (30) business days after the date of this Agreement, WBKC (with the assistance of Horizon as appropriate) shall prepare the required proxy disclosures, in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC, to be used in connection with the WBKC shareholders meeting to obtain approval for the Merger (the “Proxy Statement”), and as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, Horizon shall prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-4 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”) covering the shares of Horizon Common Stock to be issued pursuant to this Agreement, in which the Proxy Statement will be included as a prospectus. Such registration statement and any amendments and supplements thereto are referred to in this Agreement as the “Registration Statement.” Horizon shall provide WBKC and its counsel with appropriate opportunity to review and comment on the Registration Statement, and shall incorporate all appropriate comments thereto prior to the time it is initially filed with the SEC or any amendments are filed with the SEC. Horizon shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the same to become effective and thereafter, until the Effective Time or termination of this Agreement, to keep the same effective and, if necessary, amend and supplement the same. Horizon shall, as soon as practicable after filing the Registration Statement, make all filings required to obtain all blue sky exemptions, authorizations, consents, or approvals required for the issuance of Horizon common stock.

(b) The parties shall use reasonable best efforts to respond (with the assistance of the other party) as promptly as practicable to any comments of the SEC with respect thereto. Horizon shall promptly notify WBKC upon the receipt of any comments from the SEC or its staff, or any request from the SEC or its staff for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or Proxy Statement, as the case may be, and shall provide WBKC with copies of all correspondence between Horizon and the SEC.  Horizon shall provide WBKC and its counsel with appropriate opportunity to review and comment on such response and shall incorporate all appropriate comments thereto prior to filing its response with the SEC. If prior to the Effective Time any event occurs with respect to WBKC, Horizon or any Subsidiary of WBKC or Horizon, respectively, or any change occurs with respect to information supplied by or on behalf of WBKC or Horizon, respectively, for inclusion in the Proxy Statement or the Registration Statement that, in each case, is required to be described in an amendment of, or a supplement to, the Proxy Statement or the Registration Statement, WBKC or Horizon, as applicable, shall promptly notify the other of such event, and WBKC or Horizon, as applicable, shall cooperate in the prompt filing with the SEC of any necessary amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement and the Registration Statement and, as required by applicable Law, in

disseminating the information contained in such amendment or supplement to WBKC’s shareholders and to Horizon’s shareholders.

(c) Horizon shall cause the shares of Horizon Common Stock to be issued in the Merger to be approved for listing on the NASDAQ Global Select Market (subject to official notice of issuance) prior to the Effective Time.

    6.03 Employee Benefit Plans and Employee Payments.

(a) Horizon shall make available to the officers and employees of WBKC or any Subsidiary who continue as employees of Horizon or any Subsidiary after the Effective Time (“Continuing Employees”), substantially the same employee benefits as are generally available to similarly-situated Horizon employees.

(b) Horizon and WBKC agree to address any issues related to the differences between the vacation and paid time off policies of WBKC and any Subsidiary (including, without limitation, any banked paid time) and the vacation and paid time off policies of Horizon and communicate the proposed reconciliation of the policies to the Continuing Employees prior to the Effective Time. Effective as of the later of the Effective Time or the date on which the Horizon vacation and paid time off policies are made available to the Continuing Employees, such Continuing Employees will be subject to the terms and conditions of the Horizon vacation/paid time off policy in place for similarly situated employees of Horizon, with credit given for all prior years of service with WBKC or any Subsidiary for purposes of determining vacation pay eligibility and the amount of such vacation pay.

(c) Continuing Employees will receive credit for prior service with WBKC or its Subsidiaries, or their predecessors, for purposes of eligibility and vesting (but not benefit accrual) under the employee benefit plans of Horizon and its Subsidiaries. The Horizon 401(k) Plan will be amended as provided in Section 5.17(f) of this Agreement and the Horizon ESOP will be amended as provided in Section 5.16(g)of this Agreement.

(d) To the extent a WBKC employee benefit plan is terminated at or prior to the Effective Time, Continuing Employees shall become eligible to participate in Horizon’s similar employee benefit plans, if any, as of the Effective Time. To the extent a WBKC employee benefit plan is terminated after the Effective Time, Continuing Employees shall become eligible to participate in Horizon’s similar employee benefit plans, if any, on the date of such plan termination. Horizon will use its reasonable best efforts to: (i) avoid subjecting Continuing Employees to any waiting periods or additional pre-existing condition limitations under the health and dental plans of Horizon or its Subsidiaries in which they are eligible to participate than they otherwise would have been subject to under the health and dental plans of WBKC; and (ii) give credit under the applicable plan for any deductibles and co-insurance payments made by such Continuing Employees under the corresponding WBKC plan during the balance of the then current 12-month period of coverage.

(e) To the extent permitted under the terms of any tax-qualified retirement plan maintained by Horizon after the Effective Time and subject to the terms and conditions thereof, such plan shall accept “eligible rollover distributions” (within the meaning of Code Section

402(c)(4)) of cash amounts received from the Bank 401(k) Plan with respect to any Continuing Employees.

(f) Horizon may elect to continue to maintain all fully insured employee welfare benefit and cafeteria plans currently in effect at the Effective Time until such time as Horizon determines, in its sole discretion, to modify or terminate any or all of those plans. Claims incurred under the employee welfare benefit and cafeteria plans prior to plan termination shall be paid in accordance with the applicable plan’s claim submission procedures and deadlines.

(g) Until the Effective Time, WBKC or a Subsidiary of WBKC, whichever is applicable, shall be liable for all obligations for continued health coverage pursuant to Section 4980B of the Code and Sections 601 through 609 of ERISA (“COBRA”) for eligible employees who incur a qualifying event before the Effective Time. Horizon or a Horizon Subsidiary, whichever is applicable, shall, after the Effective Time, be liable for (i) all obligations for continued health coverage under COBRA with respect to each qualified beneficiary of WBKC or a Subsidiary of WBKC who incurs a termination on and after the Effective Time, and (ii) for continued health coverage under COBRA from and after the Effective Time for each qualified beneficiary of WBKC or a Subsidiary of WBKC who incurs a qualifying event before the Effective Time.

(h) Except for the employees identified in Section 5.20 and any other employee receiving a separate change in control, severance or similar payment in connection with the Closing of the Merger, those employees of Wolverine Bank as of the Effective Time: (i) who are still employed by Wolverine Bank and who Horizon or its Subsidiaries elect not to employ after the Effective Time or who are terminated other than for cause (as determined by Horizon and/or pursuant to its policies or any agreement applicable to the employee) within twelve (12) months after the Effective Date or who resign because they are not being offered a comparable position with Horizon Bank that is within a twenty-five (25) mile radius of the current address of their primary work location at Wolverine Bank; and (ii) who sign and deliver a termination and release agreement in a form substantially similar to the agreement provided in Section 6.03(h) of the Horizon Disclosure Schedule, shall be entitled to severance pay in the amount described in Section 6.03(h) of the Horizon Disclosure Schedule. Such employees, who sign and deliver the termination and release agreement, will receive their severance in a lump-sum payment within sixty (60) days of termination of employment. Furthermore, any of such terminated employees shall be entitled to continuation coverage under Horizon Bank’s group health plans as required by COBRA, subject to timely election and payment of the applicable COBRA premium by such terminated employees. In addition, Horizon, at its expense, will provide group career counseling for the Wolverine Bank employees who will not be continuing with Horizon and will make professional career counseling services available through its internal employee assistance program for up to four (4) visits per employee. Nothing in this Section shall be deemed to limit or modify Horizon’s or Horizon Bank’s at-will employment policy or any employee’s at-will employment status.

    6.04 Adverse Actions.  During the period from the date of this Agreement to the Effective Time, except with the written consent of WBKC, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, Horizon will, and it will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to preserve intact its business organization and assets and maintain its rights and franchises, and voluntarily take no action that would: (i) materially adversely affect the ability of

the parties to obtain the Regulatory Approvals or materially increase the period of time necessary to obtain such approvals; (ii) adversely affect its ability to perform its covenants and agreements under this Agreement in any material respect; or (iii) result in the representations and warranties contained in Article IV of this Agreement not being true and correct on the date of this Agreement or at any future date on or prior to the Closing Date (subject to the standards set forth in Section 7.02(a) hereof) or in any of the conditions set forth in Article VII hereof not being satisfied; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be deemed to require Horizon to take any action which would otherwise violate any other provision of this Agreement.

    6.05 D&O Insurance and Indemnification.

(a) Subject to the limits of applicable federal banking law and regulations, Horizon shall indemnify and hold harmless (including the advancement of expenses as incurred) each present and former director and officer of WBKC and its Subsidiaries, including Wolverine Bank (each, an “Indemnified Party”) for a period of six (6) years following the Effective Time, against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, or liabilities incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding, or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, to the same extent (and subject to the making of the same findings as to eligibility for such indemnification and/or advancement of expenses) that such Indemnified Party would have been indemnified (or entitled to advancement of expenses) as a director or officer of WBKC or any of its Subsidiaries under applicable law or WBKC’s, or any such Subsidiaries’, articles of incorporation or bylaws as in effect as of the date of this Agreement.

(b) Provided WBKC has historically carried directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and subject to the conditions of this Section 6.05(b), Horizon shall to cause the persons serving as officers and directors of WBKC and Wolverine Bank immediately prior to the Effective Time to be covered for a period of up to six (6) years after the Effective Time by the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy currently maintained by WBKC (the “Existing Policy”) or by a comparable or better policy (the “Replacement Policy”). Prior to the Effective Time, as instructed by Horizon, WBKC shall cause the applicable broker of record designation for its Existing Policy and its existing Financial Institution Bond to be assigned to Horizon’s designee. Such assignments in favor of Horizon’s designee shall be executed by WBKC with sufficient time to allow Horizon and its designee to place the insurance required by this Section. The Existing Policy or Replacement Policy, subject to policy terms and conditions, shall provide coverage with respect to covered acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that Horizon shall not be required to pay annual premiums for the Existing Policy (or for any Replacement Policy) in excess of 150% of the annual premium for the current annual term of the Existing Policy (the “Maximum Amount”); and, provided, further, however, that, if Horizon is unable to maintain or obtain the insurance called for by this Section 6.05(b), Horizon shall obtain as much comparable insurance as is available for the Maximum Amount.

If the term of the class of directors to which he is appointed shall expire less than three (3) years from the Effective Time, Horizon and Horizon Bank agree to cause him to be nominated and

(i) the Horizon Market Value (as determined on the Determination Date) is less than $23.02; and

(ii) the number obtained by dividing the Horizon Market Value by the Initial Horizon Market Value shall be less than the number obtained by dividing ((A) the Final Index Price by (B) the Initial Index Price) minus 0.15;

subject, however, to the following three sentences. If WBKC elects to exercise its termination right pursuant to this Section 8.01(g), it shall give prompt written notice thereof to Horizon. During the five (5) business day period commencing with its receipt of such notice, Horizon shall have the option to increase the Exchange Ratio to equal the lesser of (i) a quotient, the numerator of which is equal to the product of the Initial Horizon Market Value, the Exchange Ratio (as then in effect), and the Index Ratio minus 0.15 and the denominator of which is equal to the Horizon Market Value (as determined on the Determination Date); or (ii) the quotient determined by dividing the Initial Horizon Market Value by the Horizon Market Value (as determined on the Determination Date), and multiplying the quotient by the product of the Exchange Ratio (as then in effect) and 0.85.

“Index Ratio” means the Final Index Price divided by the Initial Index Price.

“Horizon Market Value” means the average of the daily closing sales prices of a share of Horizon’s common stock, rounded to the nearest cent, during the fifteen (15) consecutive trading days immediately preceding the Determination Date; provided, however, that closing sales prices shall only be used for days during which Horizon’s shares are actually traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market.

If Horizon or any company belonging to the Index declares or effects a stock dividend, split-up, combination, exchange of shares or similar transaction between the date of this Agreement and the Determination Date, the prices for the common stock of such company shall be appropriately adjusted for the purposes of applying this Section 8.01(g).

(b) WBKC shall pay to Horizon an amount in cash equal to $3,539,000 (the “Termination Fee”) if:

(i) this Agreement is terminated by Horizon pursuant to Section 8.01(e); or

(ii) this Agreement is terminated by either party pursuant to Section 8.01(b)(i) as a result of the failure of WBKC’s shareholders to approve the Agreement and the Merger by the requisite vote or by Horizon pursuant to Section 8.01(f) and, in each case, (A) prior to the date of such termination, an Acquisition Proposal was made, and (B) prior to the date that is twelve (12) months after such termination, WBKC or any of its Subsidiaries enters into any Acquisition Agreement or any Acquisition Proposal is consummated (regardless of whether such Acquisition Proposal is made or consummated before or after termination of this Agreement); or

(iii) this Agreement is terminated by either WBKC or Horizon pursuant to Section 8.01(b)(iii) and (A) prior to the date of such termination, an Acquisition Proposal was made, and (B) prior to the date that is twelve (12) months after such termination WBKC or any of its Subsidiaries enters into any Acquisition Agreement or any Acquisition Proposal is consummated.

(d) In the event Horizon would be entitled to the Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.02(b), then Horizon may elect, in its sole discretion, to terminate this Agreement and require the payment of such Termination Fee, in which event the Termination Fee shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for such termination event and such fee shall constitute liquidated damages; provided, however, this Agreement shall not be terminated until the Termination Fee is paid in full. WBKC acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 8.02 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, Horizon would not have entered into this Agreement.
