CONFIDENTIALITY AND OWNERSHIP 15.1. Customer Data. Customer shall remain the sole and exclusive owner of ------------- all Customer Data and other Confidential Information (as hereinafter defined) of Customer, regardless of whether such data is maintained on magnetic tape, magnetic disk, or any other storage or processing device. All such Customer Data and other Confidential Information shall, however, be subject to regulation and examination by the appropriate auditors and regulatory agencies to the same extent as if such information were on Customer's premises. "Customer Data" means any and all data and information of any kind or nature submitted to Metavante by Customer, or received by Metavante on behalf of Customer, in connection with the Services. 15.2. Metavante Systems. Customer acknowledges that it has no rights in ----------------- any software, systems, documentation, guidelines, procedures and similar related materials or any modifications thereof and/or provided by Metavante, except with respect to Customer's use of the same during the Term to process its data. 15.3. Confidential Information. "Confidential Information" of a party ------------------------ shall mean all confidential or proprietary information and documentation of such party, whether or not marked as such, including without limitation with respect to Customer, all Customer Data and including, with respect to Metavante, the Metavante Software. Confidential Information shall not include: (i) information which is or becomes publicly available (other than by the person or entity having the obligation of confidentiality) without breach of this Agreement; (ii) information independently developed by the receiving party without reference to the Confidential Information of the other party; (iii) information received from a third party not under a confidentiality obligation to the disclosing party; or (iv) information already in the possession of the receiving party without obligation of confidence at the time first disclosed by the disclosing party. The parties acknowledge and agree that the substance of the negotiations of this Agreement, and the terms of this Agreement are considered Confidential Information subject to the restrictions contained herein. Neither party shall use, copy, sell, transfer, publish, disclose, display, or otherwise make any of the other party's Confidential Information available to any Third Party without the prior written consent of the other. 15.4. Obligations of the Parties. Metavante and Customer shall hold the -------------------------- Confidential Information of the other party in confidence and shall not disclose or use such Confidential Information other than for the purposes contemplated by this Agreement, and shall instruct their employees, agents, and contractors to use the same care and discretion with respect to the Confidential Information of the other party, an Eligible Provider, or of any Third Party utilized hereunder that Metavante and Customer each require with respect to their own most confidential information, but in no event less than a reasonable standard of care, including but not limited to, the utilization of security devices or procedures designed to prevent unauthorized access to such materials. Each party shall instruct its employees, agents, and contractors (including, in the case of Metavante, Eligible Providers) of its confidentiality obligations hereunder and not to attempt to circumvent any such security procedures and devices. Each party's obligation under the preceding sentence may be satisfied by the use of its standard form of confidentiality agreement, if the same reasonably accomplishes the purposes here intended.

Each party shall cause an individual to be ----------------------- assigned ("Account Representative") to devote time and effort to management of the Services under this Agreement. 16.2. Development Projects and Technical Support. ------------------------------------------ A. Upon Customer's written request, Metavante will develop and provide to Customer a good faith estimate of any additional charges which Customer may incur in connection with the operation of any new software, major modification or enhancements developed by Metavante or the acquisition of Third Party software. Subject to such development schedule as is mutually agreed upon by the parties, Metavante shall develop enhancements or modifications to the Metavante Software requested by Customer provided that (a) the enhancements or modifications do not adversely affect the architectural integrity or performance of Metavante Software as operated in Metavante' non-custom service bureau environment; (b) the enhancements or modifications do not increase Metavante' unit cost to provide Services for its other service bureau customers; and (c) Customer shall pay all fees and costs related to such development project as mutually agreed by the parties. In the event that Customer requests programming enhancements from Metavante, Metavante agrees to provide an estimate of the hours of programming services necessary to complete such enhancements within fifteen (15) business days after receipt of detailed information necessary to complete the estimation process. Metavante further agrees that, subject to availability of qualified resources, Metavante shall commence development efforts on such enhancements within forty-five (45) days after Metavante receives approval from Customer to commence such development. B. Competitive Advantage Enhancements. Customer understands and agrees that Metavante provides the Services hereunder using Metavante Software in a shared service bureau environment, and that it may not be commercially practicable or technically feasible for Metavante to isolate or dedicate a modification or enhancement to Customer's use. Customer may request, prior to the initiation of any development project, that certain enhancements to Metavante Software paid for by Customer and exceeding 2,000 hours of professional services to develop ("Competitive Advantage Enhancements") be isolated within Metavante' processing environment and dedicated to Customer's exclusive use for a period of time. In the event that Customer so requests, Metavante shall inform Customer of whether or not it is commercially practicable and technically feasible for Metavante to dedicate the Competitive Advantage Enhancement to Customer's exclusive use. If it is commercially practicable and technically feasible to so dedicate the Competitive Advantage Enhancement, then, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, Metavante agrees as follows: (i) The features and functions of the Competitive Advantage Enhancements shall not be made available to any other Metavante service bureau customers without Customer's consent for a period of six (6) months after implementation of such Competitive Advantage Enhancement. During such six (6) month period, all information provided to Metavante by Customer related to the relevant Competitive Advantage Enhancement, and all specifically developed plans, designs or specifications relating thereto, shall be deemed Confidential Information for the purposes of this Agreement. Nothing contained herein shall prohibit Metavante from developing similar enhancements for other customers if Metavante does not use the source code or any documentation of the Competitive Advantage Enhancements for such purpose. Notwithstanding this Section 16.2B(i), Metavante reserves the right at any time to revoke Customer's right to exclusive use of the Competitive Advantage Enhancement in the event that maintaining such Competitive Advantage Enhancement in a dedicated environment shall become commercially impracticable. (ii) If, following expiration of the six (6) month period set forth in subparagraph (i) above, Metavante offers the Competitive Advantage Enhancement as a separately priced service to other Metavante service bureau customers, Metavante shall credit to Customer an amount determined by multiplying the economic value to Metavante for a new Metavante service bureau customer who receives such new separately priced service by (a) twenty-five percent (25%) for the first such new customer and (b) ten percent (10%) for each new additional customer, up to an aggregate maximum of one hundred percent (100%) of fees paid by Customer to develop the Competitive Advantage Enhancement, provided, however, that, as a condition to receiving such credits, (1) Customer shall be obligated to pay for such service, and (2) Customer shall agree to serve as a reference regarding such new service. 17. REGULATORY COMPLIANCE A. Customer shall be solely responsible for monitoring and interpreting (and for complying with, to the extent such compliance requires no action by Metavante) the federal and state laws, rules and regulations pertaining to Customer's business (the "Legal Requirements"). Based on Customer's Proper Instructions, Metavante shall select the processing parameter settings, features and options (collectively, the "Parameters") within Metavante's system that will apply to Customer. Customer shall be responsible for determining that such selections are consistent with the Legal Requirements and with the terms and conditions of any agreements between Customer and its clients. In making such determinations, Customer may rely upon the written descriptions of such Parameters contained in the User Manuals. Metavante shall perform system processing in accordance with the Parameters. B. Subject to the foregoing, Metavante shall perform an on-going review of federal laws, rules and regulations, including regulations promulgated by the Federal Regulators and the Internal Revenue Service related to the Services (a "Federal Requirement"). Metavante shall maintain the features and functions for each of the Services to be in material compliance with all applicable Federal Requirements, provided that for any new Federal Requirement arising after the date of this Agreement Metavante will support such Federal Requirement through changes to the Metavante Software or suitable procedures not involving changes to the Metavante Software, without additional charge to Customer, to enable Customer to comply with such Federal Requirement. In all other circumstances relating to regulatory compliance of the Services, including state laws, rules and regulations, the provisions of Section 5.4 above (New Services) shall apply. 7 C. In any event, Metavante shall work with Customer in developing and implementing a suitable procedure or direction to enable Customer to comply with federal and state laws, rules and regulations applicable to the Services being provided by Metavante to Customer, including in those instances when Metavante has elected to, but it is not commercially practicable to, modify the Metavante Software prior to the regulatory deadline for compliance. 18. DISASTER RECOVERY 18.1. Services Continuity Plan. Metavante shall maintain throughout the ------------------------ Term of the Agreement a Services Continuity Plan (the "Plan") in compliance with applicable regulatory requirements. "Disaster" shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan. Review and acceptance of the Plan as may be required by any applicable regulatory agency shall be the responsibility of Customer. Metavante shall cooperate with Customer in conducting such reviews as such regulatory agency may from time to time reasonably request. A detailed Executive Summary of the Plan has been provided to Customer. Updates to the Plan shall be provided to Customer without charge. 18.2. Relocation. If appropriate, Metavante shall relocate all affected ---------- Services to an alternate disaster recovery site as expeditiously as possible after declaration of a Disaster, and shall coordinate with Customer all requisite telecommunications modifications necessary to achieve full connectivity to the disaster recovery site, in material compliance with all regulatory requirements. 18.3. Resumption of Services. The Plan provides that, in the event of a ---------------------- Disaster, Metavante will be able to resume the Services in accordance therewith within the time periods specified in the Plan. In the event Metavante is unable to resume the Services to Customer within the time periods specified in the Plan, Customer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement without payment of the Termination Fee upon written notice to Metavante delivered within forty- five (45) days after declaration of such Disaster. 18.4. Annual Test. Metavante shall test its Plan by conducting one (1) ----------- test annually and shall provide Customer with a description of the test results in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. 19. GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS 19.1. Transmission of Data. The responsibility and expense for -------------------- transportation and transmission of, and the risk of loss for, data and media transmitted between Metavante and Customer shall be borne by Customer. Data lost by Metavante following processing, including loss of data transmission, shall either be restored by Metavante from its backup media or shall be reprocessed from Customer's backup media at no additional charge to Customer. 19.2. Equipment and Network. Customer shall obtain and maintain at its --------------------- own expense its own data processing and communications equipment as may be necessary or appropriate to facilitate the proper use and receipt of the Services. Customer shall pay all installation, monthly, and other charges relating to the installation and use of communications lines between Customer's datacenter and the Operations Center. Metavante maintains and will continue to maintain a network control center with diagnostic capability to monitor reliability and availability of the communication lines, but Metavante shall not be responsible for the continued availability or reliability of such communications lines. 19.3. Reliance on Data. Metavante will perform the Services described in ---------------- this Agreement on the basis of information furnished by Customer or, with respect to Support Services, on the basis of information and Proper Instructions, furnished by Customer. Metavante shall be entitled to rely upon any such data, information, or instructions as provided by Customer. If any error results from incorrect input supplied by Customer, Customer shall be responsible for discovering and reporting such error and supplying the data necessary to correct such error to Metavante for processing at the earliest possible time. 19.4. Data Backup. Customer shall maintain adequate records for at least ----------- ten (10) business days including (i) microfilm images of items being transported to Metavante or (ii) backup on magnetic tape or other electronic media where transactions are being transmitted to Metavante, from which reconstruction of lost or damaged items or data can be made. Customer assumes all responsibility and liability for any loss or damage resulting from failure to maintain such records. 19.5. Balancing and Controls. Customer shall (a) on a daily basis, review ---------------------- all input and output, controls, reports, and documentation, to ensure the integrity of data processed by Metavante; and (b) on a daily basis, check exception reports to verify that all file maintenance entries and nondollar transactions were correctly entered. Customer shall be responsible for initiating timely remedial action to correct any improperly processed data. 19.6. Use of Services. Customer assumes exclusive responsibility for the --------------- consequences of any Proper Instructions Customer may give Metavante, for Customer's failure to properly access the Services in the manner prescribed by Metavante, and for Customer's failure to supply accurate input information. Customer agrees that, except as otherwise permitted in this Agreement or in writing by Metavante, Customer will use the Services only for its own internal business purposes to service its banking customers and clients and/or Customer's Affiliates and will not sell or otherwise provide, directly or indirectly, any of the Services or any portion thereof to any other Third Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, M&I Bank F.S.B. and/or Customer's other Affiliates may use the Services to provide wholesale banking services to Third Parties and Customer's Affiliates may use the Trust Services to provide trust support to correspondents. 19.7. Regulatory Assurances. Metavante and Customer acknowledge and agree --------------------- that the performance of these Services will be subject to regulation and examination by Customer's regulatory agencies to the same extent as if such Services were being performed by Customer. Upon request, Metavante agrees to provide any appropriate assurances to such agency and agrees to subject itself to any required examination or regulation. Customer agrees to reimburse Metavante for reasonable costs actually incurred due to any such examination or regulation that is performed primarily for the purpose of examining Services used by Customer. A. Notice Requirements. Customer shall be responsible for complying with all regulatory notice provisions to any applicable governmental agency, which shall include providing timely and adequate notice to the Chief Examiner of the Federal Home Loan Bank Board, the Office of Thrift Supervision, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Reserve Board, or their successors, as applicable (collectively, the "Federal Regulators"), as of the Effective Date of this Agreement, identifying those records to which this Agreement shall apply and the location at which such Services are to be performed. B. Examination of Records. The parties agree that the records maintained and produced under this Agreement shall, at all times, be available at the Operations Center for examination and audit by governmental agencies having jurisdiction over the Customer's 8 business, including any Federal Regulator. The Director of Examinations of any Federal Regulator or his or her designated representative shall have the right to ask for and to receive directly from Metavante any reports, summaries, or information contained in or derived from data in the possession of Metavante related to the Customer. Metavante shall notify Customer as soon as reasonably possible of any formal request by any authorized governmental agency to examine Customer's records maintained by Metavante, if Metavante is permitted to make such a disclosure to Customer under applicable law or regulations. Customer agrees that Metavante is authorized to provide all such described records when formally required to do so by a Federal Regulator. C. Audits. Metavante shall cause a Third Party review of the Operations Center and related internal controls, to be conducted annually by its independent auditors. Metavante shall provide to Customer, upon written request, one copy of the audit report resulting from such review. Remote datacenters used by Metavante in providing some of the Services shall be reviewed by Metavante's internal auditors in accordance with procedures and on a schedule satisfactory to the Federal Regulator responsible for supervision of Metavante. The audit shall be prepared in accordance with applicable accounting industry standards (e.g., SAS 70). 19.8. IRS Filing. Customer represents it has complied with all laws, ---------- regulations, procedures, and requirements in attempting to secure correct tax identification numbers (TINs) for Customer's payees and customers and agrees to attest to this compliance by an affidavit provided annually. Customer authorizes Metavante to act as Customer's agent and sign on Customer's behalf the Affidavit required by the Internal Revenue Service on Form 4804, or any successor form. Exhibit A (Attorney-in-Fact Appointment) and Exhibit B --------- --------- (Affidavit) shall be executed by Customer contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement. Customer acknowledges that Metavante's execution of the Form 4804 Affidavit on Customer's behalf does not relieve Customer of responsibility to provide accurate TINs or liability for any penalties which may be assessed for failure to comply with TIN requirements. 19.9. Affiliates. Customer agrees that it is responsible for assuring ---------- compliance with this Agreement by those Affiliates receiving Services under this Agreement. Customer agrees to be responsible for the submission of its Affiliates' data to Metavante for processing and for the transmission to Customer's Affiliates of such data processed by and received from Metavante. Customer agrees to pay any and all fees owed under this Agreement for Services rendered to its Affiliates. 19.10. Future Acquisitions. Customer acknowledges that Metavante has ------------------- established the Fee Schedule and enters into this Agreement on the basis of Metavante's understanding of the Customer's current need for Services and Customer's anticipated future need for Services as a result of internally generated expansion of its customer base. If the Customer expands its operations by acquiring Control of additional financial institutions or the Customer experiences a Change in Control (as hereinafter defined), the following provisions shall apply: A. Acquisition of Additional Entities. If Customer acquires Control after the date hereof of one or more bank holding companies, financial holding companies, banks, savings and loan associations, other financial institutions or non-banking companies that are not currently Affiliates, then, upon Customer's request, Metavante shall provide Services for such new Affiliates and such Affiliates shall automatically be included in the definition of "Customer"; provided that (a) the Conversion of each new Affiliate must be scheduled at a mutually agreeable time (taking into account, among other things, the availability of Metavante Conversion resources) and must be completed before Metavante has any obligation to provide Services to such new Affiliate, and (b) Customer shall pay conversion fees and expenses to Metavante in such amounts as are mutually agreed upon by Customer and Metavante with respect to each new Affiliate. B. Change in Control of Customer. If a Change in Control occurs with respect to Customer, Metavante agrees to continue to provide Services under this Agreement; provided that (a) Metavante's obligation to provide Services shall be limited to the entities comprising the Customer prior to such Change in Control and (b) Metavante's obligation to provide Services shall be limited in any and all circumstances to the number of accounts processed in the 3-month period prior to such Change in Control occurring plus 50%. C. Customer may acquire Control after the date hereof of one or more bank holding companies, banks, savings and loan associations or other financial institutions that are not currently Affiliates and which are, at the time of such acquisition of Control by Customer, subject to an existing agreement with Metavante for data processing services which requires such institution to pay Metavante a termination fee in the event the agreement is terminated prior to expiration of its then current term. If Customer elects to have Metavante provide Services to such institution pursuant to Section 19.10A hereof and to terminate the institution's existing agreement with Metavante, Metavante shall adjust such institution's termination fee to reflect the economic loss to Metavante from the early termination of such agreement, which shall be calculated by first determining the difference between the Estimated Remaining Value of the acquired institution's agreement and the expected revenue to Metavante over the remaining Term of this Agreement from the acquired institution's use of the Services hereunder (the "Economic Loss"), then determining the present value of the Economic Loss over the remaining Term using a discount rate of four percent (4%) annually (the "Present Value Economic Loss"). Customer agrees to pay Metavante the Present Value Economic Loss in lieu of any termination fee to which Metavante would have been entitled under its agreement with the acquired institution. 20.
