RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT



RS-M  NO. _______


Shares of Restricted Stock are hereby awarded on ____________ by MB Financial, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), to ______________ (the "Grantee"), in accordance with the following terms and conditions.

1.           Share Award.  The Company hereby awards to the Grantee ________ shares (the "Shares") of the common stock, par value $.01 per share (“Common Stock”), of the Company, pursuant to the MB Financial, Inc. Amended and Restated Omnibus Incentive Plan (as the same may from time to time be amended, the "Plan"), and upon the terms and conditions and subject to the restrictions set forth in the Plan and herein­after set forth.  A copy of the Plan, as currently in effect, is incorporated herein by reference and either is attached hereto or has been delivered previously to the Grantee.  Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan.

2.           Restrictions on Transfer and Restricted Period.  Except as otherwise provided in Section 3 of this Agreement, during the period commencing on ____________ and terminating on _______________ (the "Restricted Period"), the Shares may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise alienated or hypothecated by the Grantee, except in the event of the death of the Grantee, by will or the laws of descent and distribution, or, during the lifetime of the Grantee, pursuant to a Qualified Domestic Relations Order or by gift to any member of the Grantee’s immediate family or to a trust for the benefit of one or more of such immediate family members.  For purposes of this Section 2, the Grantee’s “immediate family” shall mean the Grantee’s spouse, children and grandchildren.  The lapsing of the restrictions described above is sometimes referred to in this Agreement as “vesting.”

Provided the Grantee is then serving as an employee of the Company or any Subsidiary and subject to Section 3 of this Agreement, the Shares will vest per the following schedule:

100% (one hundred percent) of the Shares will vest on ___________.
 
3.           Termination of Service.  If the Grantee’s employment is terminated for any reason (other than death, Disability, involuntary termination without Cause, a Pre-Age 65 Service Retirement (as defined below), a Retirement (as defined below), a Post-Age 65 Service Retirement (as defined below), or a termination resulting in change in control severance benefits becoming payable to the Grantee under any employment, severance or other agreement to which the Grantee is a party with the Company or any Subsidiary) prior to the vesting of the Shares, then the Shares shall upon such termination of employment be forfeited and returned to the Company; provided, however, that the Committee, in its sole discretion, may, in the event of a termination of employment for a reason other than death, Disability, involuntary termination without Cause, Pre-Age 65 Service Retirement, Retirement, Post-Age 65 Service Retirement,  termination resulting in change in control severance benefits becoming payable to the Grantee under any employment, severance or other agreement to which the Grantee is a party with the Company or any Subsidiary, or Cause, provide for the lapsing of such restrictions upon such terms and provisions as it deems proper.  If the Grantee’s employment is terminated by reason of death, Disability, involuntary termination without Cause, Pre-Age 65 Service Retirement, Retirement, Post-Age 65 Service Retirement, or a termination resulting in change in control severance benefits becoming payable to the Grantee under any employment, severance or other agreement to which the Grantee is a party with the Company or any Subsidiary, the Shares, if not theretofore vested, shall vest in full on the date of termination.
 

 
If the Grantee’s employment is voluntarily or involuntarily terminated other than for Cause or death prior to age 65 and the Grantee’s age plus years of service is equal to or greater than ninety (90), then the termination is considered to be a “Pre-Age 65 Service Retirement.”

If the Grantee’s employment is voluntarily or involuntarily terminated other than for Cause or death on or after age 65 and the Grantee’s age plus years of service is less than ninety (90), then the termination is considered to be a “Retirement.”

If the Grantee’s employment is voluntarily or involuntarily terminated other than for Cause or death on or after age 65 and the Grantee’s age plus years of service is equal to or greater than ninety (90), then the termination is considered to be a “Post-Age 65 Service Retirement.”

Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the terms of any employment, severance or other agreement to which the Grantee is a party with the Company or any Subsidiary that is then in effect provide vesting rights with respect to the Shares in addition to those contained in this Section 3, such additional rights shall be deemed to be part of this Agreement and are incorporated herein by reference.
 
4.           Certificates for the Shares.  The Company shall issue a certificate in respect of the Shares in the name of the Grantee, and shall hold such certificate on deposit for the account of the Grantee with respect to the Shares represented thereby until such time as the Shares vest.  Such certificate shall bear the following (or a similar) legend:

"The sale or other transfer of the shares of stock represented by this certificate, whether voluntary, involuntary, or by operation of law, is subject to certain restrictions on transfer as set forth in the MB Financial, Inc. Amended and Restated Omnibus Incentive Plan and in a Restricted Stock agreement dated _____________.  A copy of the Plan and such Restricted Stock agreement may be obtained from the Chief Financial Officer of MB Financial, Inc.”

The Grantee further agrees that simultaneously with his/her execution of this Agreement, he/she shall execute a stock power endorsed in blank in favor of the Company with respect to the Shares and he/she shall promptly deliver such stock power to the Company.

5.           Grantee's Rights.  Except as otherwise provided herein, the Grantee, as owner of the Shares, shall have all rights of a stockholder, including, but not limited to, the right to receive all dividends paid on the Shares and the right to vote the Shares.  If any such dividends or distributions are paid in shares of Common Stock, such shares of Common Stock shall be subject to the same restrictions on transferability and forfeitability as the Shares with respect to which they were paid.
 

 
6.           Vesting.  Upon the vesting of the Shares, the Company shall deliver to the Grantee (or, in the event of a transfer of Shares permitted by Section 2 of this Agreement, the person to whom the transferred Shares are so transferred) the certificate in respect of such vested Shares and the related stock power held by the Company pursuant to Section 4 above.  The Shares which shall have vested shall be free of the restrictions referred to in Section 2 above and the certificate relating to such vested Shares shall not bear the legend provided for in Section 4 above.

7.           Adjustments for Changes in Capitalization of the Company.  In the event of any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, separation, liquidation, stock dividend, split up, share combination or other change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting the shares of the Company’s Common Stock, such adjustment shall be made in the number and class of shares subject to this Agreement as shall be determined to be appropriate and equitable by the Committee to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights, provided that the number of shares covered by this Agreement shall always be a whole number.

8.           Effect of Change in Control.  A Change in Control shall not, by itself, result in acceleration of vesting of the Shares.

9.           Delivery and Registration of Shares of Common Stock.  The Company's obligation to deliver the Shares hereunder shall, if the Committee so requests, be conditioned upon the receipt of a representation as to the investment intention of the Grantee or any other person to whom such Shares are to be delivered, in such form as the Committee shall determine to be necessary or advisable to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any other Federal, state or local securities regulation.  It may be provided that any representation requirement shall become inoperative upon a registration of such shares or other action eliminating the necessity of such representation under such Securities Act or other securities regulation.  The Company shall not be required to deliver any shares of Common Stock under the Plan prior to (i) the admission of such shares to listing on any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which the shares of Common Stock may then be listed or quoted, and (ii) the completion of such registration or other qualification of such shares under any state or Federal law, rule or regulation, as the Committee shall determine to be necessary or advisable.

10.           Plan and Plan Interpretations as Controlling.  The Shares awarded hereby and the terms and conditions set forth herein are subject in all respects to the terms and conditions of the Plan, which are controlling.  All determinations and inter­pretations of the Committee shall be binding and conclusive upon the Grantee and all other interested parties with regard to any questions arising hereunder or under the Plan.

11.           Grantee Employment.  Nothing in this Agreement shall limit the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to terminate the Grantee's employment, or other­wise impose upon the Company or any Subsidiary any obligation to employ or accept the services of the Grantee.

12.           Withholding Tax. Upon the vesting of the Shares (or at any such earlier time, if any, that an election is made by the Grantee under Section 83(b) of the Code, or any successor provision thereto), the Company may withhold from any payment or distribution made under the Plan sufficient Shares to cover any applicable withholding and employment taxes.  The Company shall have the right to deduct from all dividends paid with respect to Shares the amount of any taxes which the Company is required to withhold with respect to such dividend payments.

13.           Grantee Acceptance.  The Grantee shall signify his/her acceptance of the terms and conditions of this Agreement by signing in the space provided below and signing the attached stock power and returning a signed copy hereof and of the attached stock power to the Company.
