ARTICLE III

MANNER AND BASIS OF EXCHANGE OF STOCK

3.01. Consideration. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time:

(a) Each share of UCBC Common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares held as treasury stock of UCBC and shares held directly or indirectly by MainSource, except shares held in a fiduciary capacity or in satisfaction of a debt previously contracted, if any) shall become and be converted into the right to receive in accordance with this Article:

(i) An amount of cash equal to the Purchase Price (as such amount is determined and adjusted in accordance with Section 3.02 below) divided by the number of shares of UCBC Common Stock outstanding as of the Effective Time (such amount is the “Cash Consideration”), or

(ii) Such number of shares of common stock, without par value, of MainSource (“MainSource Common Stock”) equal to the quotient (the “Exchange Ratio”) arrived at by dividing:

 
A.
the Cash Consideration, by

 
B.
the average of the per share closing prices of a share of MainSource Common Stock as quoted on the Nasdaq Stock Market during the ten trading days

4


preceding the fifth (5th) calendar day preceding the Effective Time (the “MainSource Average Stock Price”), subject to adjustment, if any, pursuant to Sections 3.02 and 3.06 hereof (the “Stock Consideration”).

The Cash Consideration and the Stock Consideration are sometimes referred to herein collectively as the “Merger Consideration.”

(b) Subject to any consents required by law and Section 6.15 hereof, at the Effective Time, each outstanding option to purchase UCBC Common Stock (“UCBC Stock Option”) without any action on the part of any holder thereof, shall be converted into the right to receive from MainSource, at the Effective Time, an amount in cash equal to the excess of the Cash Consideration over the per share exercise price for each share of UCBC Common Stock subject to such UCBC Stock Option; provided, however, that the payer shall withhold from such cash payment those taxes required to be withheld by applicable law, if any. Each UCBC Stock Option to which this paragraph applies will be cancelled and shall cease to exist by virtue of such payment.

(c) Each share of UCBC Common Stock that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, is held as treasury stock of UCBC or held directly or indirectly by MainSource (other than shares held in a fiduciary capacity or in satisfaction of a debt previously contracted) shall by virtue of the Company Merger be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no exchange or payment shall be made therefor.

3.02. Purchase Price; Adjustments to Purchase Price.

(a) Purchase Price. Subject to the adjustments in this Section 3.02, the Purchase Price shall be equal to $52,993,000.

(b) Adjustment Based Upon UCBC’s Consolidated Shareholders’ Equity.

(i) Unless waived by MainSource pursuant to Article X of this Agreement, if as of the last business day of the month preceding the month in which the Effective Time occurs (the “Computation Date”) the UCBC Consolidated Shareholders’ Equity, as determined in accordance with Section 3.02(b)(ii), is less than $30,600,000, the Purchase Price shall be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by an amount equal to the difference between $30,600,000 and the actual UCBC Consolidated Shareholders’ Equity as of the Computation Date determined in accordance with Section 3.02(b)(ii). If at the Computation Date UCBC’s Consolidated Shareholders’ Equity is greater than $31,100,000, the Purchase Price shall be increased on a dollar-for-dollar basis by an amount equal to the difference between $31,100,000 and the actual UCBC Consolidated Shareholders’ Equity as of the Computation Date determined in accordance with Section 3.02(b)(ii).

(ii) The UCBC Consolidated Shareholders’ Equity shall be determined based upon the balance sheet of UCBC as of the Computation Date, prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied, after making adjustments for the following items and tax effecting those adjustments, using a 39% tax rate, where appropriate:

5


 
 
(A)
the accrual of any fees payable to a broker or investment advisor by UCBC as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein;
 
 
(B)
the accrual of the payments contemplated by Section 6.19 hereof;
 
 
(C)

(F)
the accrual of an additional loan loss provision in the amount of $500,000 above the amount calculated in accordance with Section 6.03(xiv);
 
(c) Adjustment Based on Market Price of MainSource Common Stock.

(i) If the MainSource Average Stock Price is less than $16.50 per share, the Exchange Ratio shall be equal to the Cash Consideration divided by $16.50 (as further adjusted pursuant to Section 3.06, as necessary).

(ii) If the MainSource Average Stock Price is greater than $21.50 per share, the Exchange Ratio shall be equal to the Cash Consideration divided by $21.50 (as further adjusted pursuant to Section 3.06, as necessary).

3.03. Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, no fractional shares of MainSource Common Stock and no certificates or scrip therefor, or other evidence of ownership thereof, will be issued in the Company Merger; instead, MainSource shall pay to each holder of UCBC Common Stock who otherwise would be entitled to a fractional share of MainSource Common Stock an amount in cash (without interest) determined by multiplying such fraction by the MainSource Average Stock Price.

3.04. Election and Proration Procedures.

(a) An election form and letter of transmittal (the “Election Form”) shall be mailed to each record holder of UCBC Common Stock along with the proxy materials for the special shareholders’ meeting at which the Company Merger will be submitted to a vote of UCBC’s shareholders. The shareholders of UCBC entitled to receive the Election Form shall be those shareholders of record as of the record date fixed for the special shareholders’ meeting at which

6


the Company Merger will be submitted to a vote of UCBC’s shareholders (the “Special Record Date”). UCBC and MainSource shall also establish a deadline for receipt of such Election Forms (the “Election Deadline”), which deadline shall be the close of business on the date of the special meeting at which the Company Merger will be submitted to a vote of UCBC’s shareholders. MainSource shall also use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Election Form to shareholders of record who become such after the record date and before the Election Deadline. The Election Forms UCBC shall provide to MainSource shall include all information reasonably necessary for UCBC to perform its obligations as specified herein.

(b) Each Election Form shall entitle the holder of shares of UCBC Common Stock to:

(i) elect to receive the Cash Consideration for all of such holder's shares (a "Cash Election");

(ii) elect to receive the Stock Consideration for all of such holder's shares (a "Stock Election");

(iii) elect to receive the Cash Consideration with respect to some of such holder's shares and the Stock Consideration with respect to such holder's remaining shares (a "Mixed Election"); or

(iv) make no election or to indicate that such holder has no preference as to the receipt of the Cash Consideration or the Stock Consideration (a "Non-Election").

Shares of UCBC Common Stock as to which a Cash Election has been made (including pursuant to a Mixed Election) are referred to herein as "Cash Election Shares." Shares of UCBC Common Stock as to which a Stock Election has been made (including pursuant to a Mixed Election) are referred to herein as "Stock Election Shares." Shares of UCBC Common Stock as to which no election has been made are referred to herein as "Non-Election Shares." The aggregate number of Stock Election Shares and Non-Election Shares are referred to herein as the "Stock Election Number."

(c) An election shall be duly made by completing the Election Form and any other required documents in accordance with the instructions set forth therein and delivering them to MainSource before 5:00 p.m., E.S.T., on the Election Deadline. An election shall have been properly made only if MainSource shall have actually received a properly completed Election Form by the Election Deadline. An Election Form shall be deemed properly completed only if accompanied by one or more certificates therefor representing UCBC Common Stock ("Certificates") (or customary affidavits and, if required by MainSource pursuant to Section 3.05(g), a bond as indemnity against any claim that may be made with respect to such Certificates or the guaranteed delivery of such Certificates) representing all shares of UCBC Common Stock covered by such Election Form, together with duly executed transmittal materials included with the Election Form. Subject to the terms of this Agreement and of the Election Form, MainSource shall have reasonable discretion to determine whether any election, revocation, or change has been properly or timely made and to disregard immaterial defects in

7


any Election Form, and any good faith decisions of MainSource regarding such matters shall be binding and conclusive.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, fifty-five percent (55%) of the total number of shares of UCBC Common Stock outstanding at the Effective Time (the "Stock Conversion Number") shall be converted into the Stock Consideration and the remaining outstanding shares of UCBC Common Stock shall be converted into the Cash Consideration; provided, however, that for federal income tax purposes, it is intended that the Mergers will qualify as an integrated plan of reorganization under the provisions of Section 368(a)(1)(A) of the Code and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in order that the aforementioned integrated plan of reorganization will not fail to satisfy continuity of interest requirements under applicable federal income tax principles relating to reorganizations under Section 368(a)(1)(A) of the Code, MainSource reserves the right to increase the number of shares of UCBC Common Stock that will be converted into Stock Consideration and reduce the number of shares of UCBC Common Stock that will be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration to ensure that the Stock Consideration will represent at least fifty percent (50%) of the value of the total of the aggregate Merger Consideration plus any amount treated as merger consideration for federal income tax purposes.

(e) Within five (5) business days after the Effective Time, MainSource shall effect the allocation among holders of UCBC Common Stock of rights to receive the Cash Consideration and the Stock Consideration and to distribute such consideration as follows:

(i) if the Stock Election Number equals the Stock Conversion Number, then (A) all Cash Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration, and (B) all Stock Election Shares and Non-Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration;

(ii) if the Stock Election Number is less than the Stock Conversion Number, the Cash Elections shall be eliminated (each in its entirety) and converted to Stock Elections (each in its entirety) by first eliminating and converting the Cash Election which covers the smallest number of shares of UCBC Common Stock, and then eliminating and converting the Cash Election which covers the next smallest number of shares and continuing this process until the total remaining number of outstanding UCBC shares covered by Cash Elections is such that fifty-five percent (55%) of the total number of shares of UCBC Common Stock outstanding at the Effective Time shall be converted into the Stock Consideration, subject to MainSource’s reserved right in Section 3.04(d) to increase the number of shares of UCBC Common Stock that will be converted into Stock Consideration to ensure that the Company Merger is a tax-free reorganization; and

(iii) if the Stock Election Number exceeds the Stock Conversion Number, the Non-Elections shall be eliminated (each in its entirety) and converted to Cash Elections (each in its entirety) by first eliminating and converting the Non-Election which covers the smallest number of shares of UCBC Common Stock, and then eliminating and converting the Non-Election which covers the next smallest number of shares and continuing this process until either all Non-Elections are converted into the Cash Consideration or the total remaining number of

8


outstanding UCBC shares covered by Non-Elections (when added to all Stock Elections) is such that 55% of the total number of shares of UCBC Common Stock outstanding at the Effective Time shall be converted into the Stock Consideration, subject to MainSource’s reserved right in Section 3.04(d) to increase the number of shares of UCBC Common Stock that will be converted into Stock Consideration to ensure that the Company Merger is a tax-free reorganization. In the event that, following the elimination and conversion of all Non-Elections to Cash Elections, the Stock Election Number still exceeds the Stock Conversion Number, the Stock Elections will be eliminated (each in its entirety) and converted to Cash Elections (each in its entirety) in the same manner as the Non-Elections in this Section 3.04(e)(iii), until such time as the total remaining number of UCBC Common Shares covered by Stock Elections is such that 55% of the total number of shares of UCBC Common Stock outstanding at the Effective Time shall be converted into the Stock Consideration, subject to MainSource’s reserved right in Section 3.04(d), as provided herein.

For purposes of this Section 3.04(e), if MainSource is obligated to increase the number of shares of UCBC Common Stock to be converted into shares of MainSource Common Stock as a result of the application of the last clause of Section 3.04(d) hereof, then the higher number shall be substituted for the Stock Conversion Number in the calculations set forth in this Section 3.04(e).

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.04, if (i) a shareholder of UCBC certifies in writing at the time of filing a Cash Election for all of his shares (the "Certifying Cash Elector"), that his outstanding UCBC shares are deemed to be constructively owned by another shareholder of UCBC (the "Constructive Owner") under the provisions of Section 318(a) of the Code, and (ii) the Constructive Owner has filed a valid Cash Election, then the elections of the Certifying Cash Elector or Electors and the Constructive Owner or Owners shall be treated as a single election, and their shares shall be aggregated for purposes of determining priority for conversion into cash.

(g) A holder of UCBC's shares that is a bank, trust company, security broker-dealer or other recognized nominee, may submit one or more Election Forms for the persons for whom it holds shares as nominee provided that such bank, trust company, security broker-dealer or nominee certifies to the satisfaction of UCBC and MainSource the names of the persons for whom it is so holding shares (the "Beneficial Owners"). In such case, each Beneficial Owner for whom an Election Form is submitted shall be treated as a separate owner for purposes of the election procedure and allocation of shares set forth herein.

3.05. Exchange Procedures.

(a) Distributions by MainSource of the Merger Consideration shall be made in accordance with Section 3.04. At and after the Effective Time, each certificate representing shares of UCBC Common Stock shall represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(b) At or prior to the Effective Time, MainSource shall reserve a sufficient number of shares of MainSource Common Stock to be issued as part of the Merger Consideration and shall

9


deposit with MainSource Bank an estimated amount of cash to be issued as part of the Merger Consideration.

(c) MainSource shall cause a certificate representing that number of whole shares of MainSource Common Stock that each holder of UCBC Common Stock has the right to receive pursuant to Section 3.04, if any, and a check in the amount of any cash that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 3.04, if any, including any cash in lieu of fractional shares, or dividends or distributions which such person shall be entitled to receive, to be delivered to such shareholder upon delivery (if not previously delivered) to MainSource of certificates representing such shares of UCBC Common Stock ("Old Certificates") (or bond as indemnity satisfactory to MainSource if any of such certificates are lost, stolen or destroyed) owned by such shareholder. No interest will be paid on any Merger Consideration that any such person shall be entitled to receive pursuant to this Article III upon such delivery.

(d) No dividends or other distributions on MainSource 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 UCBC Common Stock converted in the Company Merger into the right to receive shares of such MainSource Common Stock until the holder thereof surrenders such Old Certificates in accordance with this Section 3.05. After becoming so entitled in accordance with this Section 3.05, the record holder thereof also shall be entitled to receive any such dividends or other distributions, without any interest thereon, which theretofore had become payable with respect to shares of MainSource Common Stock such holder had the right to receive upon surrender of the Old Certificate.

(e) The stock transfer books of UCBC shall be closed immediately upon the Effective Time and from and after the Effective Time there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer records of UCBC of any shares of UCBC Common Stock. If, after the Effective Time, Old Certificates are presented to MainSource, 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 Section 3.05.

(f) MainSource shall be entitled to rely upon UCBC's stock transfer books to establish the identity of those persons 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 Certificate, MainSource shall be entitled to deposit any Merger Consideration represented thereby in escrow with an independent third party and thereafter be relieved with respect to any claims thereto.

(g) 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 MainSource, the posting by such person of a bond in such amount as MainSource may reasonably direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Old Certificate, MainSource will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen, or destroyed Old Certificate the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 3.04 hereof.

10



(h) Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Exchange Agent nor any party hereto shall be liable to any former holder of UCBC Common Stock for any amount properly delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws.

3.06. Anti-Dilution Adjustments. Should MainSource change (or establish a record date for changing) the number of shares of MainSource Common Stock issued and outstanding prior to the Effective Time by way of a stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or similar transaction with respect to the outstanding MainSource Common Stock, and the record date therefor shall be prior to the Effective Time, the Stock Consideration shall be adjusted so the shareholders shall receive, in the aggregate, such number of shares of MainSource Common Stock representing the same percentage of outstanding shares of MainSource Common Stock at the Effective Time as would have been represented by the number of shares of MainSource Common Stock the shareholders of UCBC would have received if any of the foregoing actions had not occurred.

3.07. Exchange Agent. UCBC and MainSource agree that Registrar and Transfer Company shall be appointed to act as agent (the “Exchange Agent”) for purposes of mailing and receiving the Election Forms, tabulating the results and distributing the Merger Consideration pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF MAINSOURCE

On or prior to the date hereof, MainSource has delivered to UCBC a schedule (the "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 V or to one or more of its covenants contained in Article VII; provided that the mere inclusion of an item in the Disclosure Schedule as an exception to a representation or warranty shall not be deemed an admission by MainSource that such item represents a material exception or fact, event or circumstance or that such item is reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect (as defined below).

For the purpose of this Agreement, and in relation to MainSource and its subsidiaries, a Material Adverse Effect on MainSource means any effect that (i) is material and adverse to the financial position, results of operations or business of MainSource and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, or (ii) would materially impair the ability of MainSource to perform its obligations under this Agreement or otherwise materially threaten or materially impede the consummation of the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that Material Adverse Effect on MainSource shall not be deemed to include the impact of (a) changes in banking and similar laws of general applicability to banks or savings associations or their holding companies or interpretations thereof by courts or governmental authorities, (b) changes in generally accepted accounting principles or regulatory accounting requirements applicable to banks, savings associations, or their holding companies generally, (c) any modifications or changes to valuation policies and practices in connection with the Mergers or restructuring charges taken in connection with the Mergers, in each case in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, (d) changes in general level of interest rate (including the impact on the securities portfolios of MainSource or its subsidiaries) or conditions or circumstances that affect the banking industry generally, (f) reasonable and customary expenses incurred in connection with the Mergers, (g) the impact of the announcement of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, and compliance with this Agreement or the business, financial condition or results of operations of MainSource and its subsidiaries, and (h) the occurrence of any military or terrorist attack within the United States or any of its possessions or offices.

Each of MainSource and its subsidiaries is duly qualified to do business in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or the properties or assets owned or leased by it make such qualification necessary except where the failure to so qualify would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.02. Authorization.

(a) MainSource has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to carry out its obligations hereunder, and following its formation Merger Corp will have the requisite corporate power and authority to carry out its obligations hereunder, subject to the fulfillment of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 8.01(d), (e) and (f) hereof.

(b) UCBC shall promptly communicate to MainSource the terms of any proposal or offer which UCBC or Union Federal may receive with respect to an Acquisition Transaction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, UCBC may, in response to an unsolicited written proposal with respect to an Acquisition Transaction from a third party, furnish information to, and negotiate, explore or otherwise engage in substantive discussions

37


with such third party, and enter into any such agreement, arrangement or understandings, in each case, only if UCBC's Board of Directors determines in good faith by majority vote, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that failing to take such action would be a breach of the fiduciary duties of UCBC's Board of Directors in connection with seeking an Acquisition Transaction.

(c) In the event UCBC's Board of Directors, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, determines in good faith that it would result in a violation of its fiduciary duties under applicable law to recommend this Agreement and the Company Merger to UCBC's shareholders for their approval, then in submitting this Agreement to the shareholders at the meeting of shareholders, UCBC may submit this Agreement without recommendation of approval, in which case the Board of Directors may communicate the basis for its lack of a recommendation of approval to the shareholders in the proxy statement or an appropriate amendment or supplement thereto to the extent required by law.

(d) This Section 6.06 shall not authorize UCBC or Union Federal, or any of their directors, officers, employees, agents or representatives, to initiate any discussions or negotiations with respect to an Acquisition Transaction with a third party.

6.07. Press Releases. Neither UCBC nor Union Federal nor MainSource will issue any press or news releases or make any other public announcements or disclosures relating to the Mergers without providing a final copy of such press or news release to the other party and providing such party with a reasonable opportunity to comment on such press or news release.

6.08. Material Changes to Disclosure Schedules. UCBC and Union Federal shall promptly supplement, amend and update, upon the occurrence of any change prior to the Effective Time, and as of the Effective Time, the 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 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 UCBC or Union Federal contained herein materially incorrect, untrue or misleading. No such supplement, amendment or update shall become part of the Disclosure Schedule unless MainSource shall have first consented in writing with respect thereto.

6.09. Access; Information. (a) MainSource and UCBC, and their representatives and agents, shall, at all times during normal business hours prior to the Effective Time, have full and continuing access to the properties, facilities, operations, books and records of the other party. MainSource and UCBC, 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 UCBC, Union Federal or MainSource. Upon request, UCBC and MainSource will furnish the other party or its representatives or agents, their attorneys' responses to external auditors requests for information,

38


management letters received from their external auditors and such financial, loan and operating data and other information reasonably requested by MainSource or UCBC which has been or is developed by the other party, its auditors, accountants or attorneys (provided with respect to attorneys, such disclosure would not result in the waiver by the other party of any claim of attorney-client privilege), and will permit MainSource or UCBC or their representatives or agents to discuss such information directly with any individual or firm performing auditing or accounting functions for UCBC or MainSource, as applicable, and such auditors and accountants will be directed to furnish copies of any reports or financial information as developed to MainSource or UCBC or its representatives or agents, as applicable. No investigation by MainSource or UCBC shall affect the representations and warranties made by UCBC, Union Federal or MainSource herein. Any confidential information or trade secrets received by MainSource, UCBC 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 MainSource or UCBC, as applicable, or at MainSource’s or UCBC's request, returned to MainSource or UCBC, as applicable, in the event this Agreement is terminated as provided in Article IX hereof. This Section 6.09 will not require the disclosure of any information to MainSource or UCBC which would be prohibited by law. The ability of MainSource or UCBC to consult with any tax advisor (including a tax advisor independent from all other entities involved in the transactions contemplated hereby) shall not be limited by this Agreement in any way, provided that any such tax advisor is otherwise subject to and is bound by this Section 6.09. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (other than the preceding sentence), except as reasonably necessary to comply with applicable securities laws, MainSource and UCBC (and each employee, representative or agent of MainSource and UCBC) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment (as defined in Treas. Reg. § 1.6011-4) of the transactions contemplated hereby and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are or have been provided to MainSource or UCBC relating to such tax structure, provided that, in the case of any materials that contain information other than the tax treatment or tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby (including, but not limited to, any information relating to the pricing or any cost of the transactions contemplated hereby or the identity of any party to the transactions contemplated hereby), this sentence shall apply to such materials only to the extent that such materials contain the tax treatment or tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby and MainSource and UCBC shall take all action necessary to prevent the disclosure of such other information as otherwise provided herein. The immediately preceding sentence shall not be effective until the earliest of (a) the date of the public announcement of discussions relating to any of the transactions contemplated hereby, (b) the date of the public announcement of any of the transactions contemplated hereby or (c) the date of the execution of an agreement, with or without conditions, to enter into any of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(b) Beginning on the date of this Agreement, James L. Saner, President of MainSource, or his designees, shall be entitled to receive notice of and to attend all regular and special meetings of the board of directors and all committees of UCBC and Union Federal, including, without limitation, the loan committee, investment committee, the executive committee, the personnel committee, and any other committee of UCBC and Union Federal, except that any such person shall be excluded from the portion of any meeting where this Agreement or the

39


transactions contemplated by this Agreement are being discussed.

6.10. Financial Statements. As soon as reasonably available after the date of this Agreement, UCBC will deliver to MainSource any additional audited consolidated financial statements which have been prepared on its behalf or at its direction, the monthly consolidated unaudited balance sheets and profit and loss statements of UCBC prepared for its internal use, Union Federal’s TFRs for each quarterly period completed prior to the Effective Time, and all other financial reports or statements submitted to regulatory authorities after the date hereof, to the extent permitted by law (collectively, "Subsequent UCBC Financial Statements"). The Subsequent UCBC Financial Statements will be prepared on a basis consistent with past accounting practices and generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis to the extent applicable and shall present fairly the financial condition and results of operations as of the dates and for the periods presented. The Subsequent UCBC Financial Statements, including the notes thereto, will not include any assets, liabilities or obligations or omit to state any assets, liabilities or obligations, absolute or contingent, or any other facts, which inclusion or omission would render such financial statements inaccurate, incomplete or misleading in any material respect. As soon as internally available after the date of this Agreement, MainSource will deliver to UCBC any additional audited consolidated financial statements which have been prepared on its behalf or at its direction and the quarterly consolidated unaudited balance sheets and profit and loss statements of MainSource (collectively, "Subsequent MainSource Financial Statements"). The Subsequent MainSource Financial Statements will be prepared on a basis consistent with past accounting practices and generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis to the extent applicable and shall present fairly the financial condition and results of operations as of the dates and for the periods presented. The Subsequent MainSource Financial Statements, including the notes thereto, will not include any assets, liabilities or obligations or omit to state any assets, liabilities or obligations, absolute or contingent, or any other facts, which inclusion or omission would render such financial statements inaccurate, incomplete or misleading in any material respect.

6.11. Environmental. If requested by MainSource, UCBC and Union Federal will cooperate with an environmental consulting firm designated by MainSource in connection with the conduct, at MainSource's expense, by such firm of a phase one environmental investigation on all real property owned or leased by UCBC or Union Federal as of the date of this Agreement, and any real property acquired or leased by UCBC or Union Federal after the date of this Agreement. In the event MainSource requests a phase two environmental investigation on any real property owned or leased by UCBC or Union Federal as of the date of this Agreement or acquired or leased by UCBC or Union Federal after the date of this Agreement, UCBC and Union Federal will cooperate with the environmental firm designated by MainSource in connection with the conduct by such firm of a phase two environmental investigation.

In the event that the cost of taking all remedial or other corrective actions and measures (i) required by applicable law, or (ii) recommended or suggested by such report or reports or (iii) reasonably considered by MainSource to be prudent in light of serious life, health or safety concerns, exceed the sum of $150,000, in the aggregate, as reasonably estimated by such environmental firm, or if the cost of such actions and measures cannot be so reasonably estimated by such environmental firm to be such amount or less with any reasonable degree of

40


certainty, then MainSource shall have the right pursuant to Section 9.01(b) hereof, for a period of 15 business days following receipt of such estimate or indication that the cost of such actions and measures cannot be so reasonably estimated, to terminate this Agreement, which shall be MainSource’s sole remedy in such event. MainSource agrees to pay the costs of any phase two investigation prepared or conducted at MainSource’s request pursuant to this Section 6.11 which does not recommend or suggest as being appropriate the taking of any remedial or corrective actions. UCBC agrees to pay the costs of any phase two investigation prepared or conducted at MainSource’s request pursuant to this section which recommends or suggests as being appropriate the taking of any remedial or corrective action.

6.12. Governmental Reports. Promptly upon its becoming available, UCBC shall furnish to MainSource one (1) copy of each financial statement, report, notice, or proxy statement sent by UCBC or Union Federal to any Governmental Authority or to UCBC’s shareholders generally and of each regular or periodic report, registration statement or prospectus filed by UCBC with the SEC or any successor agency, and of any order issued by any Governmental Authority in any proceeding to which UCBC or Union Federal is a party. Promptly upon its becoming publicly available, MainSource shall furnish to UCBC one (1) copy of each financial statement, report, notice, or proxy statement sent by MainSource to any Governmental Authority or to MainSource’s shareholders generally and of each regular or periodic report, registration statement or prospectus filed by MainSource with the SEC or any successor agency, and of any order issued by any Governmental Authority in any proceeding to which MainSource is a party. For purposes of this provision, "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.

6.13. Adverse Actions. Neither UCBC nor Union Federal shall knowingly take any action that is intended or is reasonably likely to result in (w) any of their representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement being or becoming untrue in any respect at any time at or prior to the Effective Time, (x) any of the conditions to the Mergers set forth in Article VIII not being satisfied, (y) a material violation of any provision of this Agreement or (z) a delay in the consummation of the Mergers except, in each case, as may be required by applicable law or regulation.

6.14. ESOP. UCBC shall take any such actions as are necessary to ensure that (i) all UCBC employees who are participants in the UCBC ESOP have the opportunity to complete an Election Form and to vote with respect to the Company Merger, (ii) the ESOP trustee has the authority necessary to sell or exchange the UCBC stock held by the ESOP and to otherwise participate in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (iii) no violation of ERISA or the Code occurs in the termination of the ESOP, the ESOP’s sale or exchange of the UCBC stock held by the ESOP, or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, that cannot be cured to the satisfaction of the Service. Additionally, UCBC shall take any such actions as are necessary to ensure that, as of the Effective Time or as soon as practicable thereafter, subject to receipt of a favorable ruling of the Service with respect to the termination of the ESOP and conditioned upon consummation of the Mergers, the UCBC ESOP shall be terminated, all shares of UCBC Common Stock held by the UCBC ESOP shall be converted into rights to receive the

41


Merger Consideration in respect thereof, to the extent consistent with Section 8.7(j) of the ESOP, all outstanding indebtedness of the UCBC ESOP shall be repaid using: (i) unallocated UCBC shares held by the UCBC ESOP or the Cash Consideration received for such unallocated shares, to the extent allowed by applicable law, (ii) all amounts held in the suspense account, and (iii) finally with such other payments as determined appropriate by UCBC and MainSource, any assets remaining in the suspense fund under the UCBC ESOP after payment of all outstanding indebtedness and other liabilities of the ESOP shall be allocated to the contribution accounts of the UCBC employees who are participants in the ESOP, and the net assets of the UCBC ESOP shall be distributed to such participants under the UCBC ESOP, subject to the receipt of a favorable determination letter from the Service and except as otherwise required by applicable law. UCBC shall file the notifications or applications with the Service necessary to comply with the provisions of this Section 6.14, subject to MainSource’s prior review and approval of such notifications and applications. If for any reason the Service will not permit the UCBC ESOP to be terminated or distributions to be made to employees of UCBC as provided above unless the UCBC ESOP is amended, UCBC may make such required amendments; provided, however, that (i) no such amendment shall require or have the effect of requiring MainSource to make any contributions to the UCBC ESOP after the Effective Time; (ii) no such amendments shall require or have the effect of requiring UCBC to make any contributions to the UCBC ESOP at or prior to the Effective Time in addition to any contributions that otherwise would be required; (iii) any such amendment shall be conditioned upon its not having an adverse effect upon the qualified status of the UCBC ESOP under Section 401(a) of the Code, and (iv) no such amendment shall require or have the effect of requiring the continuation of the UCBC ESOP after the Effective Time except to the extent and for so long as the UCBC ESOP may be so continued without having an adverse effect on the qualified status under Section 401(a) of the Code of any other employee pension benefit plan of MainSource that is intended to be so qualified. UCBC shall make no contributions to the UCBC ESOP between the date hereof and the Effective Time other than such as may be required to maintain the tax-qualified status of the UCBC ESOP or to enable the UCBC ESOP to make required payments on the loans currently outstanding to it.

With respect to UCBC stock allocated to the accounts of each ESOP participant, said participants shall be entitled to vote on the approval and adoption of this Agreement and shall be entitled to select the Merger Consideration, similar to any other shareholder of UCBC. Unallocated UCBC stock held by the ESOP shall be voted by the ESOP Trustee as provided in the ESOP; however, only Cash Consideration shall be paid for the unallocated UCBC stock held by the ESOP.

Before the adoption of any amendment of the ESOP, UCBC shall first submit the amendment to MainSource for its review and approval. Throughout the ESOP termination process, UCBC shall keep MainSource timely informed of the planning for and occurrence of the transactions involved in the termination. Subsequent to the Effective Time, Merger Corp shall be the successor of UCBC with respect to the ESOP and Merger Corp shall hold all authority necessary to terminate the ESOP as otherwise provided herein.

6.15. UCBC Stock Option Plan. Within forty-five (45) days of the date of this Agreement, UCBC shall use its best efforts to obtain written consents from each holder to whom a UCBC Stock Option is outstanding consenting to the disposition of such option in accordance

42


with the provisions of Section 3.01 above, and agreeing not to exercise such option on or before the Effective Date unless (A) this Agreement is terminated and the Company Merger is abandoned pursuant to Article IX or (B) such exercise is made not more than one week before the date on which the option otherwise would cease to be exercisable; provided, however, that UCBC shall obtain such consents from the members of the Board of Directors of UCBC who hold such UCBC Stock Options.

6.16. Recognition and Retention Plan. Shares of UCBC Common Stock held in the Union Federal Recognition and Retention Plan (the “RRP”) which vest at the Effective Time shall be converted into the Merger Consideration to the extent provided in Article III and pursuant to Election Forms properly completed by or on behalf of the recipients of awards of such shares.

6.17. Defined Contribution Plan. On and after the date of this Agreement, and until the plan is merged or disposed of in a legal manner, or participation in the plan is otherwise discontinued, and at a time to be determined by MainSource or until this Agreement shall be terminated as herein provided:

(i) UCBC shall continue to participate in the Financial Institutions Thrift Plan (the “UCBC 401(k) Plan” or “401(k) Plan”) in accordance with its terms and conditions, as set forth in its plan and trust document as of the date of this Agreement, and in accordance with applicable law;

(ii) UCBC or Union Federal shall continue to fund all employee and employer contributions to the 401(k) Plan which are required during this time period. However, UCBC and Union Federal may only make discretionary employer contributions after receipt of written approval from MainSource, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld if the amount of any discretionary employer contributions are not in excess of the discretionary employer contributions made by UCBC or Union Federal to the 401(k) Plan during the last Plan Year; and

(iii) neither UCBC nor Union Federal shall amend, or cause an amendment of, the 401(k) Plan without the prior written consent of MainSource, except for any amendment which is necessary to maintain the qualification of the 401(k) Plan and its related employee benefit trust for favorable income tax treatment under Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Code, respectively, or as otherwise required by law, regulations, the Service or the Department of Labor.

(iv) UCBC and Union Federal shall not terminate or agree to the termination of the appointment of any fiduciary as defined in ERISA with respect to the 401(k) Plan without the prior written consent of MainSource, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, except for any termination attributable to a breach by such fiduciary of any fiduciary duty imposed on the fiduciary under ERISA; and

(v) neither UCBC nor Union Federal shall terminate, agree to the termination of, or cause the termination of any agreement with any service provider providing services to the 401(k) Plan as of the date of this Agreement without the prior written consent of MainSource,

43


which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, except for any termination attributable to a breach by such service provider of its service agreement.

6.18. Defined Benefit Plan. Prior to the Effective Time, the Board of Directors of UCBC shall take the following actions with respect to UCBC’s participation in the Financial Institutions Retirement Fund (“Benefit Plan”): (a) amend UCBC’s participation in the Benefit Plan to (i) discontinue any further accrual of benefit under the Benefit Plan by a UCBC director or employee participating in the Benefit Plan (“UCBC Participant”) as of the date of execution of this Agreement and (ii) terminate and otherwise discontinue UCBC’s participation in the Benefit Plan on or before the Effective Time; (b) deposit funds sufficient to pay from the Benefit Plan to each UCBC Participant the present value of his accrued benefit; (c) calculate the present value of each UCBC Participant’s accrued benefit based on the mortality tables contained in the Benefit Plan and using the highest applicable interest rate provided by the Benefit Plan and as permitted by applicable law and the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation; and (d) pay from the Benefit Plan the amount referred to in (c) to each UCBC Participant, in a single sum in cash or, if elected by the payee, a paid up annuity contract, on or before the Effective Time. UCBC shall take any actions necessary to effectuate the foregoing, including filing appropriate applications with the Service necessary to comply with the provisions of this Section 6.18, but otherwise subject to MainSource’s prior review and approval of such actions and applications. In addition, prior to the adoption of any amendment to the Benefit Plan, MainSource shall be allowed to first review and approve such amendment, and MainSource shall be promptly copied on any correspondence between the Benefit Plan and UCBC or UCBC’s counsel. Subsequent to the Effective Time, Merger Corp shall be the successor of UCBC with respect to the Benefit Plan and Merger Corp shall hold all authority necessary to comply with the provisions of this Section 6.18.

(b) As soon as reasonably practicable following the Effective Time, subject to applicable law and the requirements of the MainSource Financial Group, Inc. 401(k) Plan (“MainSource 401(k) Plan”), MainSource shall succeed UCBC as the participating employer in the UCBC 401(k) Plan, thereafter discontinue participation in the UCBC 401(k) Plan, as otherwise provided in the UCBC 401(k) Plan document, and amend as necessary the MainSource 401(k) Plan so that, (i) from and after the Effective Time, employees of UCBC who become employees of the Surviving Corporation will accrue benefits pursuant to the MainSource 401(k) Plan, and (ii) from and after the merger of those plans, former UCBC employees participating in the MainSource 401(k) Plan shall receive credit for eligibility and vesting purposes, for the service of such employees with UCBC and Union Federal or their predecessors prior to the Effective Time as if

46


such service were with MainSource or its subsidiaries; provided, however, that the benefit of any such former UCBC employee in respect of service prior to the Effective Time shall be determined under the contribution formulae under the UCBC 401(k) Plan as in effect from time to time prior to the Effective Time and the benefit of any such former UCBC employee in respect of service from and after the Effective Time shall be determined under the contribution formulae under the MainSource 401(k) Plan as in effect from time to time from and after the Effective Time.

(c) Neither the terms of this Section 7.03 nor the provision of any employee benefits by MainSource or any of its subsidiaries to employees of UCBC or Union Federal shall:

(i) 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 UCBC or Union Federal; or

(ii) prohibit or restrict MainSource, whether before or after the Effective Time, from changing, amending or terminating any employee benefits provided to its employees from time to time, provided such change, amendment or termination does not affect the qualified status of such employee benefits or violate applicable law or regulations.

7.04. Adverse Actions. MainSource shall not knowingly take any action that is intended or is reasonably likely to result in (i) any of its representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement being or becoming untrue in any respect at any time at or prior to the Effective Time, (ii) any of the conditions to the Merger set forth in Article VIII not being satisfied, (iii) a material violation of any provision of this Agreement or (iv) a delay in the consummation of the Mergers except, in each case, as may be required by applicable law or regulation.

7.05. Severance. With the exception of Joseph E. Timmons, Alan L. Grimble and J. Lee Walden, those employees of UCBC or its subsidiaries as of the Effective Time whom MainSource or its subsidiaries elect not to employ after the Effective Time or who are terminated other than for cause within one year after the Effective Date or voluntarily resign within one year after the Effective Date after being notified that, as a condition of employment, they must work at a location more than 30 miles from their former location of employment or that their salary will be materially decreased, shall be entitled to severance benefits equal to those described in Exhibit 7.05 hereto (to the extent not inconsistent with the foregoing). Nothing in this Section 7.05 shall be deemed to limit or modify MainSource’s at will employment policy.

7.06. D &O Insurance/Indemnification.

(a) For a period of three (3) years from the Effective Time, MainSource shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain an endorsement to its director’s and officer’s liability insurance policy to cover the present and former officers and directors of UCBC and Union Federal (determined as of the Effective Time) with respect to claims against such directors and officers arising from facts or events which occurred before the Effective Time, which insurance shall contain at least the same coverage and amounts, and contain terms and conditions no less advantageous, as that coverage currently provided by UCBC; provided, however, that if

47


MainSource is unable to obtain such endorsement, then UCBC may purchase tail coverage under its existing director and officer liability insurance policy for such claims; provide, further that in no event shall MainSource be required to expend in the aggregate during such three-year period more than three (3) times the current annual amount spent by UCBC (the “Insurance Amount”) to maintain or procure its current directors’ and officers’ insurance coverage; provided, further, that if MainSource is unable to maintain or obtain the insurance called for by this Section 7.06, MainSource shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain as much comparable insurance as is available for the Insurance Amount; provided, further, that officers and directors of UCBC or Union Federal may be required to make application and provide customary representations and warranties to MainSource’s insurance carrier for the purpose of obtaining such insurance.

(b) For six (6) years after the Effective Time, MainSource shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the present and former officers and directors of UCBC and Union Federal against all losses, expenses (including attorneys’ fees), claims, damages or liabilities arising out of actions or omission occurring on or prior to the Effective Time (including, without limitation, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) to the full extent then permitted under the IBCL and by MainSource’s Articles of Incorporation as in effect on the date hereto, including provisions relating to advances of expenses incurred in the defense of any action or suit.

(c) If MainSource shall consolidate with or merge into any other entity and shall not be the continuing or surviving entity of such consolidation or merger or shall transfer all or substantially all of its assets to any entity, then and in each case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of MainSource shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 7.06.


7.07 Short-Swing Trading Exemption. Prior to the Effective Date, the board of directors of MainSource shall adopt such resolutions as necessary to cause any shares of MainSource Common Stock to be received by executive officers and directors of UCBC as part of the Merger Consideration to qualify for the exemptions provided in Rule 16b-3(d) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

7.08 Formation of MergerCorp and Execution of Agreement and Plan of Merger. MainSource agrees to file the necessary regulatory applications to organize MergerCorp promptly after the execution of this Agreement. MainSource shall cause MergerCorp to execute the Agreement for Subsidiary Merger attached as Exhibit 2.01(e)(ii) as soon as practicable after it has been organized.

52


result in a Material Adverse Effect; or

 
(B)
a breach by UCBC of any of the covenants or agreements contained herein that would be reasonably likely, individually or in the aggregate with other breaches to result in a Material Adverse Effect, unless the breach is cured within thirty (30) days from the giving of written notice to UCBC of such breach and the same does not result in a Material Adverse Effect; or

of
MAINSOURCE FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.,
an Indiana corporation
and
UNION COMMUNITY BANCORP,
an Indiana corporation

1. The names of the corporations proposing to merge (the “Company Merger”) are MainSource Financial Group, Inc., an Indiana corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”), and Union Community Bancorp, an Indiana corporation (the “Merging Corporation”), pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of August __, 2005 (the “Merger Agreement”).

2. The Merging Corporation has 5,000,000 authorized shares of common stock, no par value (“UCBC Common Stock”), and 2,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock, no par value, of which _________ shares of UCBC Common Stock and no shares of preferred stock are presently issued and outstanding.

3. The Surviving Corporation has 25,000,000 authorized shares of common stock, no par value (“MainSource Common Stock”), and 400,000 authorized shares of preferred stock, no par value, of which ________________ shares of MainSource Common Stock and no shares of preferred stock are presently issued and outstanding.

4. The effective date of the Company Merger, as that phrase is used herein, shall mean ________________, 2006 (the “Effective Date”). The date and time at which the Company Merger becomes effective shall be the Effective Time.

5. (a) Each share of UCBC Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares held as treasury stock of Merging Corporation and shares held directly or indirectly by Surviving Corporation, except shares held in a fiduciary capacity or in satisfaction of a debt previously contracted, if any) shall become and be converted into the right to receive, subject to adjustment as provided in paragraph 6 below:

(i) An amount of cash equal to the Purchase Price (as such amount is determined and adjusted in accordance with Section 6 below) divided by the number of shares of UCBC Common Stock outstanding as of the Effective Time (such amount is the “Cash Consideration”), or

(ii) Such number of shares of common stock, without par value, of MainSource (“MainSource Common Stock”) equal to the quotient (the “Exchange Ratio”) arrived at by dividing:

 
A.
the Cash Consideration, by




 
B.
the average of the per share closing prices of a share of MainSource Common Stock as quoted on the Nasdaq Stock Market during the ten trading days preceding the fifth (5th) calendar day preceding the Effective Time (the “MainSource Average Stock Price”), subject to adjustment, if any, pursuant to Section 6 hereof (the “Stock Consideration”).

The Cash Consideration and the Stock Consideration are sometimes referred to herein collectively as the “Merger Consideration.”

(b) Subject to any consents required by law, at the Effective Time, each outstanding option to purchase UCBC Common Stock (“UCBC Stock Option”) without any action on the part of any holder thereof, shall be converted into the right to receive from MainSource, at the Effective Time, an amount in cash equal to the excess of the Cash Consideration over the per share exercise price for each share of UCBC Common Stock subject to such UCBC Stock Option; provided, however, that the payer shall withhold from such cash payment those taxes required to be withheld by applicable law, if any. Each UCBC Stock Option to which this paragraph applies will be cancelled and shall cease to exist by virtue of such payment.

(c) Each share of UCBC Common Stock that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, is held as treasury stock of Merging Corporation or held directly or indirectly by MainSource, other than shares held in a fiduciary capacity or in satisfaction of a debt previously contracted, shall by virtue of the Company Merger be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no exchange or payment shall be made therefor.

6. (a) Subject to the adjustments in this Section 6, the Purchase Price shall be equal to $52,993,000.

(b) (i) If as of the last business day of the month preceding the month in which the Effective Time occurs (the “Computation Date”) the UCBC Consolidated Shareholders’ Equity, as determined in accordance with Section 6(b)(ii), is less than $30,600,000, the Purchase Price shall be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by an amount equal to the difference between $30,600,000 and the actual UCBC Consolidated Shareholders’ Equity as of the Computation Date determined in accordance with Section 6(b)(ii). If at the Computation Date UCBC’s Consolidated Shareholders’ Equity is greater than $31,100,000, the Purchase Price shall be increased on a dollar-for-dollar basis by an amount equal to the difference between $31,100,000 and the actual UCBC Consolidated Shareholders’ Equity as of the Computation Date determined in accordance with Section 6(b)(ii).

(ii) The UCBC Consolidated Shareholders’ Equity shall be determined based upon the balance sheet of UCBC as of the Computation Date, prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied, after making adjustments for the following items and tax effecting those adjustments, where appropriate:

 
(A)
earnings or losses of UCBC through the Computation Date;
 

2

(C)
the accrual of any fees payable to a broker or investment advisor by UCBC as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein;

the accrual of change in control payments;
 
 
(E)
the accrual or payment of a penalty in the amount of $___________ for the termination of UCBC’s data processing contract;

(c)  (i) If the MainSource Average Stock Price is less than $16.50 per share, the Exchange Ratio shall be equal to the Cash Consideration divided by $16.50 (as further adjusted pursuant to Section 3.06 of the Merger Agreement, as necessary).

(ii) If the MainSource Average Stock Price is greater than $21.50 per share, the Exchange Ratio shall be equal to the Cash Consideration divided by $21.50 (as further adjusted pursuant to Section 3.06 of the Merger Agreement, as necessary).

7. Each share of MainSource Common Stock which is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall continue to be an issued and outstanding share of MainSource Common Stock at and after the Effective Time.

8. Subject to the allocation procedures set forth in paragraph 9, each record holder of UCBC Common Stock will be entitled to (1) elect to receive Cash Consideration for all of such holder’s shares (“Cash Election Shares”), (2) elect to receive Stock Consideration for all of such holder’s shares (“Stock Election Shares”), (3) elect to receive the Cash Consideration with respect to some of such holder’s shares and the Stock Consideration with respect to such holder’s remaining shares, or (4) make no election or indicate that such holder has no preference as to the receipt of the Cash Consideration or the Stock Consideration (“Non-Election Shares”). All such elections (each, an “Election”) shall be made on a form designed for that purpose by Surviving Corporation and reasonably acceptable to Merging Corporation (an “Election Form”). Any shares of UCBC Common Stock with respect to which the record holder thereof shall not, as of the election deadline established by the Surviving Corporation (the “Election Deadline”), have properly submitted to the Registrar and Transfer Company, or other exchange agent as shall be appointed by Surviving Corporation and Merging Corporation (the “Exchange Agent”) a properly completed Election Form shall be deemed to be Non-Election Shares. A record holder

3


acting in different capacities or acting on behalf of other persons in any way shall be entitled to submit an Election Form for each capacity in which such record holder so acts with respect to each person for which it so acts.

Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Plan of Merger, fifty-five percent (55%) of the total number of shares of UCBC Common Stock outstanding at the Effective Time (the "Stock Conversion Number") shall be converted into the Stock Consideration and the remaining outstanding shares of UCBC Common Stock shall be converted into the Cash Consideration; provided, however, that for federal income tax purposes, it is intended that the Merger will qualify as an integrated plan of reorganization under the provisions of Section 368(a)(1)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in order that the aforementioned integrated plan of reorganization will not fail to satisfy continuity of interest requirements under applicable federal income tax principles relating to reorganizations under Section 368(a)(1)(A) of the Code, the Surviving Corporation reserves the right to increase the number of shares of UCBC Common Stock that will be converted into Stock Consideration and reduce the number of shares of UCBC Common Stock that will be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration to ensure that the Stock Consideration will represent at least fifty percent (50%) of the value of the total of the aggregate Merger Consideration plus any amount treated as merger consideration for federal income tax purposes.

9. Within five (5) business days after the Effective Time, Surviving Corporation shall effect the allocation among the holders of UCBC Common Stock of rights to receive the Cash Consideration and the Stock Consideration and to distribute such consideration as follows:

(i) if the Stock Election Number equals the Stock Conversion Number, then (A) all Cash Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration, and (B) all Stock Election Shares and Non-Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration;

(ii) if the Stock Election Number is less than the Stock Conversion Number, the Cash Elections shall be eliminated (each in its entirety) and converted to Stock Elections (each in its entirety) by first eliminating and converting the Cash Election which covers the smallest number of shares of UCBC Common Stock, and then eliminating and converting the Cash Election which covers the next smallest number of shares and continuing this process until the total remaining number of outstanding UCBC shares covered by Cash Elections is such that fifty-five percent (55%) of the total number of shares of UCBC Common Stock outstanding at the Effective Time shall be converted into the Stock Consideration, subject to MainSource’s reserved right to increase the number of shares of UCBC Common Stock that will be converted into Stock Consideration to ensure that the Company Merger is a tax-free reorganization; and

(iii) if the Stock Election Number exceeds the Stock Conversion Number, the Non-Elections shall be eliminated (each in its entirety) and converted to Cash Elections (each in its entirety) by first eliminating and converting the Non-Election which covers the smallest number of shares of UCBC Common Stock, and then eliminating and converting the Non-Election which covers the next smallest number of shares and

4


continuing this process until either all Non-Elections are converted into the Cash Consideration or the total remaining number of outstanding UCBC shares covered by Non-Elections (when added to all Stock Elections) is such that 55% of the total number of shares of UCBC Common Stock outstanding at the Effective Time shall be converted into the Stock Consideration, subject to MainSource’s reserved right in Section 3.04(d) to increase the number of shares of UCBC Common Stock that will be converted into Stock Consideration to ensure that the Company Merger is a tax-free reorganization. In the event that, following the elimination and conversion of all Non-Elections to Cash Elections, the Stock Election Number still exceeds the Stock Conversion Number, the Stock Elections will be eliminated (each in its entirety) and converted to Cash Elections (each in its entirety) in the same manner as the Non-Elections in this Section 9(iii), until such time as the total remaining number of UCBC Common Shares covered by Stock Elections is such that 55% of the total number of shares of UCBC Common Stock outstanding at the Effective Time shall be converted into the Stock Consideration, subject to MainSource’s reserved right to increase the number of shares of UCBC Common Stock that will be converted into Stock Consideration to ensure that the Company Merger is a tax-free reorganization.

For purposes of this Section 9, if MainSource is obligated to increase the number of shares of UCBC Common Stock to be converted into shares of MainSource Common Stock as a result of MainSource’s reserved right to increase the number of shares of UCBC Common Stock that will be converted into Stock Consideration to ensure that the Company Merger is a tax-free reorganization, then the higher number shall be substituted for the Stock Conversion Number in the calculations set forth in this Section 9.

10. At the Effective Time, (a) holders of UCBC Common Stock shall cease to be, and shall have no rights as, shareholders of UCBC, other than the right to receive (1) any dividend or other distribution with respect to such UCBC Common Stock with a record date occurring prior to the Effective Time, and (2) the Consideration provided under this Plan of Merger. After the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of Merging Corporation or the Surviving Corporation of shares of UCBC Common Stock.

11. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan of Merger, no fractional shares of MainSource Common Stock and no certificates or scrip therefor, or other evidence of ownership thereof, will be issued in the Company Merger; instead, Surviving Corporation shall pay to each holder of UCBC Common Stock who otherwise would be entitled to a fractional share of MainSource Common Stock an amount in cash (without interest) determined by multiplying such fraction by the MainSource Average Stock Price.

12. Upon the Effective Date, the Merging Corporation shall merge into and with the Surviving Corporation, which shall survive the Company Merger and the separate existence of the Merging Corporation shall thereupon cease.

13. Upon and after the Effective Date, the Surviving Corporation shall thereupon and thereafter possess all the rights, privileges, powers and franchises, of a public, as well as a private nature, of each of the parties hereto; and all property, real, personal and mixed, all debts due on whatever account and all other choses in action and all and every other interests of or

5


belonging to or due to each of the parties hereto shall be taken and deemed to be transferred to and vested in the Surviving Corporation without further act or deed; and the title to any real estate, or any interest therein, shall not revert or be in any way impaired by reason of the Company Merger.

14. Upon and after the Effective Date, the Surviving Corporation shall be responsible and liable for all the liabilities and obligations of both of the parties hereto in the same manner and to the same extent as if the Surviving Corporation had itself incurred the same or contracted therefor; and any claim existing or action or proceeding by or against either of the parties hereto may be prosecuted to judgment as if the Company Merger had not taken place or the Surviving Corporation may be substituted in its place. Neither the rights of creditors nor liens upon the property of either of the parties hereto shall be impaired by such Company Merger; but any such lien shall be limited to the property upon which there were liens immediately prior to the time of the Company Merger.

15. The Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws of the Surviving Corporation in existence at the Effective Time shall remain the Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws of the Surviving Corporation following the Effective Time, until such Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws shall be further amended as provided by applicable law.

16. The directors of the Surviving Corporation following the Effective Time shall be those individuals of the Surviving Corporation serving as directors of the Surviving Corporation at the Effective Time until such time as their successors have been duly elected and qualified or until their earlier resignation, death, or removal as a director. The officers of the Surviving Corporation following the Effective Time shall be those individuals of the Surviving Corporation serving as officers of the Surviving Corporation at the Effective Time until such time as their successors have been duly elected and qualified or until their earlier resignation, death, or removal as an officer.

[DATE]

MainSource Financial Group, Inc.
201 North Broadway
Greensburg, Indiana 47240
 
Ladies and Gentlemen:
 
I have been advised that as of the date hereof I may be deemed to be an “affiliate” of Union Community Bancorp, an Indiana corporation (“UCBC”), as that term is defined for purposes of paragraphs (c) and (d) of Rule 145 of the rules and regulations (the “Rules and Regulations”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). Neither my entering into this letter agreement, nor anything contained herein, shall be deemed an admission on my part that I am such an “affiliate.”
 
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of August __, 2005, (the “Merger Agreement”), among MainSource Financial Group, Inc., an Indiana corporation (“MainSource”), UCBC and Union Federal Savings and Loan Association, providing for the merger of UCBC with and into MainSource (the “Merger”), and as a result of the Merger, I may receive shares of common stock, no par value, of MainSource (the “MainSource Securities”) and/or cash in exchange for the shares of common stock, no par value, of UCBC owned by me at the effective time of the Merger.
 
I represent and warrant to MainSource that in such event:
 
 
A.
I shall not make any sale, transfer or other disposition of the MainSource Securities in violation of the Act and the Rules and Regulations.

 
B.
I have carefully read this letter and the Merger Agreement and discussed its requirements and other applicable limitations upon my ability to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of MainSource Securities, to the extent I felt necessary, with my counsel and counsel for UCBC.

 
C.
I have been advised that the issuance of MainSource Securities to me pursuant to the Merger has been registered with the Commission under the Act on a Registration Statement on Form S-4. However, I have also been advised that, since at the time the Merger was submitted for a vote of the shareholders of UCBC, I may have been deemed to have been an affiliate of UCBC and a distribution by me of MainSource Securities has not been registered under the Act, the MainSource Securities must be held by me indefinitely unless (i) a

distribution of MainSource Securities by me has been registered under the Act, (ii) a sale of MainSource Securities by me is made in conformity with the volume and other limitations of Rule 145 promulgated by the Commission under the Act, or (iii) in the opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to MainSource, some other exemption from registration is available with respect to a proposed sale, transfer or other disposition of the MainSource Securities by me.

 
D.
I understand that MainSource is under no obligation to register the sale, transfer or other disposition of MainSource Securities by me or on my behalf or to take any other action necessary in order to make compliance with an exemption from registration available.

 
E.
I also understand that stop transfer instructions will be given to MainSource’s transfer agent with respect to MainSource Securities and that there will be placed on the certificates for the MainSource Securities, or any substitutes therefor, a legend stating in substance:

“The shares represented by this certificate were issued in a transaction to which Rule 145 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933 applies. The shares represented by this certificate may only be transferred in accordance with the terms of an agreement dated [DATE] between the registered holder hereof and MainSource Financial Group, Inc., a copy of which is on file with MainSource Financial Group, Inc.”
 
 
F.
I also understand that unless the transfer by me of my MainSource Securities has been registered under the Act or is a sale made in conformity with the provisions of Rule 145, MainSource reserves the right to put the following legend on the certificates issued to my transferee:

“The shares represented by this certificate have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and were acquired from a person who received such shares in a transaction to which Rule 145 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933 applies. The shares have been acquired by the holder not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 and may not be sold, pledged or otherwise transferred except in accordance with an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933.”
 
It is understood and agreed that the legends set forth in paragraphs E and F above shall be removed by delivery of substitute certificates without such legend if the undersigned shall have

delivered to MainSource a copy of a letter from the staff of the Commission, or an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to MainSource, to the effect that such legend is not required for purposes of the Act and, in any event, may be removed after one year following the Effective Time (as defined in the Merger Agreement) as long as MainSource is then current in its filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Exhibit 7.05


Separation Pay Guidelines

1. Eligibility:  Any employee of the MainSource Financial Group, Inc. and/or its subsidiaries (collectively, “MainSource”), who meets the following requirements shall be eligible for consideration for Severance Benefits:
 
A.
The employee is actively employed in a Full Time, regular, non-seasonal MainSource position;
 
B.
The employee is not covered by an enforceable written employment agreement that provides for separation pay;
 
C.
The employee’s termination is a Qualifying Event (as defined below); and
 
D.
The employee’s termination is not due to any issue related to the integrity or honesty of the employee, or the employee’s Gross Misconduct (as defined below) or criminal conviction.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any employee who executes any document or agreement, which MainSource in its discretion may require as a condition for payment of separation pay, including but not limited to a resignation of employee or officer, transfer of a license, or a consulting, release, or confidentiality agreement, is eligible for separation pay.

2. Exclusion:  Any employee in any of the following categories shall not be eligible for separation pay:
 
A.
The employee is terminated for Gross Misconduct;
 
B.
The employee voluntarily resigns or abandons job;
 
C.
The employee is subject to recall;
 
D.
The employee is on any type of leave other than FMLA;
 
E.
The employee is covered under an individual employment agreement that addresses separation pay;
 
F.
The employee is terminated because of circumstances beyond the control of MainSource, or is offered another position with MainSource or an acquiring entity and the employee declines such position; or
 
G.
The employee does not otherwise meet the Eligibility requirements set forth in Section 1 above.

 
3.
Schedule of Benefits: Separation Benefits shall be applied according to the following schedule:
 
A.
Less than 12 months service - Service of less than 12 months does not qualify for separation pay.
 
B.
Nonexempt employee - Separation pay equal to one week’s salary for each year of service, subject to a maximum of eight weeks.
 
C.
Exempt/Officer employee (below VP status) - Separation pay equal to one week’s salary for each year of service, subject to a minimum of 2 weeks and a maximum of 12 weeks.



 
D.
Senior Management employee (VP and above) - Separation pay equal to one week’s salary for each year of service, subject to a minimum of 4 weeks and a maximum of 26 weeks.
 
E.
Executive Officers (CEO, CFO, COO) - Separation pay equal to two week’s salary for each year of service in an executive capacity and equal to one week’s salary for each year of service prior to attaining such executive position, subject to a minimum of 6 weeks and a maximum of 52 weeks.

4. Payment Terms:  Separation payments may be made in a single lump sum payment within the next normal payroll cycle, at a later date or in periodic installments.

5. Payment Offsets:  The separation pay benefits received shall be reduced by any amounts owed by the employee to MainSource or any amounts earned by the employee after termination of employment under individual employment and/or consulting agreements between the employee and MainSource. Separation pay will be reduced by any amounts paid to an employee pursuant to the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (WARN).

6. Effect of Acceptance of Benefits:  Upon acceptance of separation pay benefits, the individual agrees to fully release MainSource, its employees, agents, and related entities from any and all claims arising out of or related to the individual’s employment or termination of employment, to the extent permitted by applicable law. In the event an individual sues MainSource on the basis of any of the released claims, the individual is obligated to return to MainSource all of the separation pay.

7. Rehired Employees:   Employees who are rehired by MainSource within the time period covered by the separation pay will be required to repay a pro rata portion of the separation pay. For example, an employee who is paid 12 months’ separation pay and is rehired ten months later will be required to repay one-sixth of the separation pay.

8. Recovery of Excess Payments:  Whenever payments have been made in excess of the amount necessary to satisfy the separation pay benefits, MainSource has the right to recover these excess payments from any individual or entity to which the excess payments were made. The employee has an obligation to reimburse MainSource for excess benefits, and excess payments to the employee will be treated as an advance against wages, which may be deducted from wages or amounts owed by MainSource to the employee subject to employee execution of the appropriate wage assignment and other documentation. Whenever payments have been made on the basis of false information provided by the employee, MainSource has the right to withhold payments on certain compensation or other amounts owed by MainSource to the employee, until the overpayment is recovered.

9. Benefits Not Guaranteed: MainSource does not guarantee the payment of separation pay benefits and these separation pay guidelines do not constitute an “offer” of any kind to any employee working for MainSource. Separation pay is not a form of wages and is not earned during employment.

A.

D.
Accrued but unused Paid Time Off (“PTO”) and any other amounts owed to an employee (except bonuses) will be included with the separation payment in accordance with MainSource’s Paid Time Off plan. Any bonus or other incentive pay will be paid in accordance with the applicable plan.
 
E.
These separation pay guidelines are to be applied to all MainSource-originated separations affecting employees as described. As with all others, these guidelines do not create a contract for employment or any benefit. Further, they are subject to modification at any time.

(a) The Bank possesses and will continue to possess information which has been created, discovered, developed by or otherwise become known to the Bank (including information discovered or made available by subsidiaries, affiliates or joint ventures of the Bank or in which property rights have been assigned or otherwise conveyed to the Bank) which information (whether in print or electronic format) has commercial value to the Bank, including
 

3


but not limited to trade secrets, innovations, processes, computer codes, data, know how, improvements, discoveries, developments, techniques, marketing plans, strategies, costs, customers, and client lists, or any information Employee has reason to know the Bank would like to treat as confidential for any purpose, such as maintaining a competitive advantage or avoiding undesired publicity, whether or not developed by Employee (“Confidential Information”). Unless previously authorized in writing or instructed in writing by the Bank, Employee will not, at any time, disclose to others, or use, or allow anyone else to disclose or use any Confidential Information (except as may be necessary in the performance of Employee’s employment with the Bank), unless and until and then only to the extent that, such Confidential Information has become ascertainable or obtained from public or published sources or was available to the Bank on a non-confidential basis prior to any disclosure, provided that the source of such material is or was not bound by any obligation of confidentiality to the Bank.
 
(b) Upon termination of employment to the extent he has not already done so, the Employee will deliver to the Bank any and all Information and Property (as herein defined) then in his possession or subject to his control. For purposes of this sub-section, the term “Information and Property” means and includes (i) all files, records, reports, memoranda and other documents, whether written or electronic, that the Employee received, prepared, helped prepare, directed the preparation of, maintained or kept in connection with his services as a director, officer or employee of the Bank or any of its affiliates; (ii) all door and file keys, identification cards or badges, credit cards, computer hardware, computer software, computer printers, computer access codes and similar items issued or made available to the Employee in connection with his service as a director, officer or employee of the Bank or any of its affiliates; (iii) all documents, whether written or electronic, containing any trade secrets (as defined in Indiana Code §24-2-3-2) of the Bank or any of its affiliates; and (iv) all documents, whether written or electronic, containing non-public information regarding the Bank or any of its affiliates or its customers or employees, the use or disclosure of which might be adverse to the best interests of such entity or its business. The Employee expressly agrees and promises that he will not retain any copies, duplicates, reproductions, or excerpts of any Information and Property. The Employee acknowledges that this obligation is continuing and agrees promptly to deliver to the Bank any subsequently discovered Information and Property and any subsequently discovered copies, duplicates or reproductions of, or excerpts from, Information and Property. In the case of electronic data contained in files residing on the Employee’s personally-owned computers, the Employee shall permit access to such computers to Bank representatives to delete all such files (including any drives or disks associated therewith) that can be located easily and delete all other such files (including any drives or disks associated therewith) as and when they are discovered. Notwithstanding anything else in this subparagraph (i), the Employee may retain documents concerning any benefit plans or employment policies from which he may be or become entitled to benefits and documents concerning his rights under this Agreement.
 
10. Termination.
 
(a) The Bank may terminate this Agreement during the term hereof for just cause upon written notice to Employee.
 
(b) This Agreement may also be terminated (i) whenever the Bank and Employee shall mutually agree to a termination in writing, (ii) upon the resignation or death of

Employee, (iii) pursuant to paragraph 12, or (iv) upon expiration of the term hereof.
 
(c) Upon the termination of this Agreement by the Bank for just cause as defined in subparagraph (d), or pursuant to paragraph 12, or upon the resignation or death of Employee, Employee or his personal representative shall be entitled to receive only the compensation accrued but unpaid as of the date of the termination hereof and shall not be entitled to any compensation following the termination date or additional compensation except as expressly provided in this Agreement.
 
(d) Just cause shall include, but not be limited to:
 
(i) Employee’s misuse or conviction of embezzlement of funds belonging to the Bank, conviction of, or plea by Employee of nolo contendre to, any felony or crime involving fraud or moral turpitude, or use of alcohol or drugs or other conduct in such a manner as will injure or adversely effect the Bank or its employees, customers, agents, officers or directors;
 
(ii) Employee’s absence from his employment for a period in excess of paid time off as provided in paragraph 7(b) for any reasons other than family and medical leave under the Bank’s policies;
 
(iii) Employee’s absence from employment or inability to perform his duties hereunder as a result of physical or mental disability for a period in excess of the period for which salary is continued pursuant to paragraph 8 or in excess of family and medical leave under the Bank’s policies;
 
(iv) Employee’s failure to perform substantially his duties with the Bank, his intentional breach of the provisions of this Agreement, his gross negligence or willful malfeasance in discharging his obligations hereunder and such acts and their consequences are not remedied within ten (10) days (or such longer reasonable period of time designated by the Bank) after written notice hereof has been given to Employee.
 
11. Non-Competition. Employee acknowledges that the services he will render to the Bank under this Agreement will be of a special and unusual character, with a unique value to the Bank. Employee has served in an executive management position with and was a shareholder of the banking entity merged into the Bank and has acquired unique and invaluable information about and developed relationships with customers who will continue to use the services of Bank and for which he will continue to receive benefit. Employee further acknowledges the scope of the Bank’s Business and that any limitations on his post employment activities are necessary to protect the Bank’s Business because of its scope. In view of the unique value to the Bank of the services of Employee, his prior relationship with the predecessor of the Bank, because of the confidential information of the Bank obtained by or disclosed to Employee, and as a material inducement to the Bank to enter into this Agreement and to provide Employee the compensation and benefits stated herein, including the signing bonus, and other good and valuable consideration, Employee covenants and agrees that for the period of two (2) years following the date of termination of employment with Bank for any reason, Employee will not, directly or indirectly, either as a principal, agent, manager, partner, director, officer, consultant or
 

5


shareholder, on his behalf or on behalf of any other entity:
 
(a) in Montgomery County Indiana, or the counties in the State of Indiana which are contiguous to Montgomery Indiana, own, manage, operate, control, be employed by, participate in, render assistance to or be connected in any manner with the ownership, management, representation, operation or control of any entity which competes with the Business of the Bank at the time of termination of employment with Bank;
 
(b) solicit, entice or encourage any employee of the Bank to leave employment with the Bank and to not hire or employ (or cause and/or assist, whether directly or indirectly any third party to hire or employ) any such employee; and
 
(c) contact, solicit, encourage or induce any customers of the Bank to obtain business and/or services from any entity (other than the Bank) which is engaged in any activity competitive with the Business of the Bank.
 
The term “customer” shall mean any person or entity to which the Bank has provided services during the one (1) year period prior to the date of termination or persons or entities targeted by the Bank or contacted for the purpose of selling such goods or services during such one (1) year period.
 
12. Regulatory Provisions.
 
(a) If the Employee is suspended and/or temporarily prohibited from participating in the conduct of the Bank’s affairs by a notice served under Section 8(e)(3) or (g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C. 1818(e)(3) and (g)(1)), the Bank’s obligations under this Agreement shall be suspended as of the date of service unless stayed by appropriate proceedings. If the charges in the notice are dismissed, the Bank may in its discretion (i) pay the Employee all or part of the compensation withheld while its contract obligations were suspended, and (ii) reinstate (in whole or in part) any of its obligations which were suspended.
 
(b) If the Employee is removed and/or permanently prohibited from participation in the conduct of the Bank’s affairs by an order issued under Section 8(e)(4) or (g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C. 1818(e)(4) or (g)(1)), the employment of Employee and all obligations of the Bank under this Agreement shall terminate as of the effective date of the order.
 
(c) If the Bank is in default (as defined in Section 3(x)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act), the employment of Employee and all obligations of the Bank under this Agreement shall terminate as of the date of default.
 
(d) The employment of Employee and all obligations of the Bank under this Agreement shall be terminated, except to the extent it is determined that continuation of this Agreement is necessary for the continued operation of the Bank: (i) by the Director of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “Director”) or his or her designee, at the time the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation enters into an agreement to provide assistance to or on behalf of the Bank under the authority contained in Section 13(c) of the Federal Deposit
 

6


Insurance Act; or (ii) by the Director or his or her designee at the time the Director or his or her designee approves a supervisory merger to resolve problems related to operation of the Bank or when the Bank is determined by the Director to be in an unsafe or unsound condition.
 
13. Remedies. Given the important nature of the services Employee will provide to the Bank, the scope and nature of the Bank’s business and the sensitive nature of the information and functions Employee will have with the Bank, Employee acknowledges that the limitations contained herein in paragraphs 9 and 11 are reasonable. In the event of an actual or threatened breach by Employee of the provisions of paragraphs 9 and 11, the Bank shall be entitled to an injunction restraining Employee from such breach in addition to recovery of monetary damages together with the costs and expenses and reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses incurred by Bank in seeking and enforcement such provisions in paragraphs 9 and 11. If Employee violates any covenants contained in paragraphs 9 and 11, the terms and the covenants violated shall be automatically extended to a like period of time from the date on which Employee ceases such violation or from the date of entry by a court of competent jurisdiction of any order or judgment enforcing such covenant, whichever period is later.
 
14. Tax Liability. It is the intention of Bank and Employee that any and all payments Employee receives pursuant to this Agreement are reasonable compensation for services provided by Employee to Bank during the term hereof, and together with any other payments due to Employee from Bank or its successor (“other payments”), shall not constitute “excess parachute payments” within the meaning of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. If the Internal Revenue Service or the independent accountants acting as auditors for Bank or its successor determine that the compensation by itself or together with other payments constitute “excess parachute payments, “ the payments hereunder shall be reduced to the maximum amount which may be paid without constituting the payments as “excess parachute payments.” If, regardless of the aforesaid adjustment, the Internal Revenue Service determines that the payments constitute “excess parachute payments” under Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code, Bank shall assume responsibility for the loss of any tax deductions, and Employee shall assume responsibility for payment of any income and excise taxes attributable to the excess parachute payment.
 
15. Successors and Assigns. The Bank may assign this Agreement or any part hereof; but Employee shall not assign this Agreement or any part hereof. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successor, assign, heir or personal representative of either party hereto.
 
16. Covenants and Promises Survive Termination of Employment. The Employee agrees that the obligations, duties and covenants contained in paragraphs 9, 11 and 14 shall survive termination of this Agreement and employment.
 
17. Severability. The parties agree that each and every paragraph, sentence, clause, term, word and provisions of this Agreement is severable and that, in the event any portion of this Agreement is adjudged to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining portions thereof shall remain in full force and effect to the fullest extent permitted by law. If any part of paragraph 11 of this Agreement is for any reason excessively broad as to time duration or geographic scope, activity or subject, it will be construed by a court by limiting or reducing it so as to be
 

7


enforceable to the extent compatible with applicable law as it then exists.

During the term hereof, Employee shall serve in a Management Position of the Bank and shall to the best of his efforts manage, direct and administer the operations of the Bank including, but not limited to, such matters as accounting, operations, conversion to a commercial bank, business development, and various other functions as assigned from time to time. Employee shall report to the President of the Bank. The precise services, duties and authority of Employee may be further defined, extended or curtailed from time to time at the discretion of the President of the Bank; provided, however, that such services, duties and authority shall always be consistent with those which are customary for his position with the Bank. The Employee shall exercise his duties of employment in a manner consistent with and in compliance with the requirements of all applicable statutes of the United States of America and the State of Indiana and of the administrative rules and regulations issued thereunder and of the procedures, rules and
 

1


regulations of the applicable regulatory agencies of the United States of America and the State of Indiana. Similarly, Employee shall exercise his supervision and control over the employees of the Bank that report to him in such a manner as to encourage them to exercise their duties of employment so as to meet the standards provided by the previous sentence of this paragraph.
 
4. Extent of Services. Employee, subject to the control of the President of the Bank, shall have the power and authority commensurate and necessary to his position with the Bank. Employee shall devote his entire employable time, attention and best efforts to the Business of the Bank and shall not, without the consent of the President of the Bank, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, during the term of this Agreement, be actively engaged in any other business activity, whether or not such business activity is pursued for gain, profit or other pecuniary advantage; but this shall not be construed as preventing Employee from investing his personal assets in such form or manner as will not require any services on the part of Employee in the operation of the affairs of the enterprise in which such investments are made. Employee shall be a full-time employee of the Bank and shall devote at least forty (40) hours per week (excused absences and vacation periods counted as hours worked for this purpose) to the affairs of the Bank, unless the President of the Bank consents to a shorter work period. During the term of his employment hereunder, the Employee shall not provide any banking or bank-related services or solicit or engage in any banking or bank-related business otherwise than on behalf of the Bank or an affiliate of the Bank.

Nothing herein shall be construed so as to prevent the Bank from modifying or terminating any employee benefit or welfare plans or programs or employee fringe benefits it may adopt from time to time.
 
(b) Employee shall be entitled to at least two hundred seventy-six (276) hours of paid time off for each year during the term hereof administered in accordance with the Bank’s policies.

The Bank shall also pay for Employee’s membership in the Crawfordsville Country Club during the term of this Agreement.
 
7. Confidentiality.
 
(a) The Bank possesses and will continue to possess information which has been created, discovered, developed by or otherwise become known to the Bank (including information discovered or made available by subsidiaries, affiliates or joint ventures of the Bank or in which property rights have been assigned or otherwise conveyed to the Bank) which information (whether in print or electronic format) has commercial value to the Bank, including but not limited to trade secrets, innovations, processes, computer codes, data, know how, improvements, discoveries, developments, techniques, marketing plans, strategies, costs, customers, and client lists, or any information Employee has reason to know the Bank would like to treat as confidential for any purpose, such as maintaining a competitive advantage or avoiding undesired publicity, whether or not developed by Employee (“Confidential Information”). Unless previously authorized in writing or instructed in writing by the Bank, Employee will not, at any time, disclose to others, or use, or allow anyone else to disclose or use any Confidential Information (except as may be necessary in the performance of Employee’s employment with the Bank), unless and until and then only to the extent that, such Confidential Information has become ascertainable or obtained from public or published sources or was available to the Bank on a non-confidential basis prior to any disclosure, provided that the source of such material is or was not bound by any obligation of confidentiality to the Bank.
 
(b) Upon termination of employment to the extent he has not already done so, the Employee will deliver to the Bank any and all Information and Property (as herein defined) then in his possession or subject to his control. For purposes of this sub-section, the term “Information and Property” means and includes (i) all files, records, reports, memoranda and other documents, whether written or electronic, that the Employee received, prepared, helped prepare, directed the preparation of, maintained or kept in connection with his services as a director, officer or employee of the Bank or any of its affiliates; (ii) all door and file keys, identification cards or badges, credit cards, computer hardware, computer software, computer printers, computer access codes and similar items issued or made available to the Employee in connection with his service as a director, officer or employee of the Bank or any of its affiliates; (iii) all documents, whether written or electronic, containing any trade secrets (as defined in Indiana Code §24-2-3-2) of the Bank or any of its affiliates; and (iv) all documents, whether written or electronic, containing non-public information regarding the Bank or any of its affiliates or its customers or employees, the use or disclosure of which might be adverse to the
 

3


best interests of such entity or its business. The Employee expressly agrees and promises that he will not retain any copies, duplicates, reproductions, or excerpts of any Information and Property. The Employee acknowledges that this obligation is continuing and agrees promptly to deliver to the Bank any subsequently discovered Information and Property and any subsequently discovered copies, duplicates or reproductions of, or excerpts from, Information and Property. In the case of electronic data contained in files residing on the Employee’s personally-owned computers, the Employee shall permit access to such computers to Bank representatives to delete all such files (including any drives or disks associated therewith) that can be located easily and delete all other such files (including any drives or disks associated therewith) as and when they are discovered. Notwithstanding anything else in this subparagraph (i), the Employee may retain documents concerning any benefit plans or employment policies from which he may be or become entitled to benefits and documents concerning his rights under this Agreement.
 
8. Termination.
 
(a) The Bank may terminate this Agreement during the term hereof for just cause upon written notice to Employee.
 
(b) This Agreement may also be terminated (i) whenever the Bank and Employee shall mutually agree to a termination in writing, (ii) upon the resignation or death of Employee, (iii) pursuant to paragraph 10, or (iv) upon expiration of the term hereof.
 
(c) Upon the termination of this Agreement by the Bank for just cause as defined in subparagraph (d), or pursuant to paragraph 10, or upon the resignation or death of Employee, Employee or his personal representative shall be entitled to receive only the compensation accrued but unpaid as of the date of the termination hereof and shall not be entitled to any compensation following the termination date or additional compensation except as expressly provided in this Agreement.
 
(d) Just cause shall include, but not be limited to:
 
(i) Employee’s misuse or conviction of embezzlement of funds belonging to the Bank, conviction of, or plea by Employee of nolo contendre to, any felony or crime involving fraud or moral turpitude, or use of alcohol or drugs or other conduct in such a manner as will injure or adversely effect the Bank or its employees, customers, agents, officers or directors;
 
(ii) Employee’s absence from his employment for a period in excess of paid time off as provided in paragraph 6(b) for any reasons other than family and medical leave under the Bank’s policies;
 
(iii) Employee’s absence from employment or inability to perform his duties hereunder as a result of physical or mental disability for a period in excess of family and medical leave under the Bank’s policies;
 
(iv) Employee’s failure to perform substantially his duties with the Bank, his intentional breach of the provisions of this Agreement, his gross negligence or willful
 

4


malfeasance in discharging his obligations hereunder and such acts and their consequences are not remedied within ten (10) days (or such longer reasonable period of time designated by the Bank) after written notice hereof has been given to Employee.
 
9. Non-Competition. Employee acknowledges that the services he will render to the Bank under this Agreement will be of a special and unusual character, with a unique value to the Bank. Employee has served in an executive management position with and was a shareholder of the banking entity merged into the Bank and has acquired unique and invaluable information about and developed relationships with customers who will continue to use the services of Bank and for which he will continue to receive benefit. Employee further acknowledges the scope of the Bank’s Business and that any limitations on his post employment activities are necessary to protect the Bank’s Business because of its scope. In view of the unique value to the Bank of the services of Employee, his prior relationship with the predecessor of the Bank, because of the confidential information of the Bank obtained by or disclosed to Employee, and as a material inducement to the Bank to enter into this Agreement and to provide Employee the compensation and benefits stated herein, including the signing bonus, and other good and valuable consideration, Employee covenants and agrees that for the period of two (2) years following the date of termination of employment with Bank for any reason, Employee will not, directly or indirectly, either as a principal, agent, manager, partner, director, officer, consultant or shareholder, on his behalf or on behalf of any other entity:
 
(a) in Montgomery County Indiana, or the counties in the State of Indiana which are contiguous to Montgomery Indiana, own, manage, operate, control, be employed by, participate in, render assistance to or be connected in any manner with the ownership, management, representation, operation or control of any entity which competes with the Business of the Bank at the time of termination of employment with Bank;
 
(b) solicit, entice or encourage any employee of the Bank to leave employment with the Bank and to not hire or employ (or cause and/or assist, whether directly or indirectly any third party to hire or employ) any such employee; and
 
(c) contact, solicit, encourage or induce any customers of the Bank to obtain business and/or services from any entity (other than the Bank) which is engaged in any activity competitive with the Business of the Bank.
 
The term “customer” shall mean any person or entity to which the Bank has provided services during the one (1) year period prior to the date of termination or persons or entities targeted by the Bank or contacted for the purpose of selling such goods or services during such one (1) year period.
 
10. Regulatory Provisions.
 
(a) If the Employee is suspended and/or temporarily prohibited from participating in the conduct of the Bank’s affairs by a notice served under Section 8(e)(3) or (g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C. 1818(e)(3) and (g)(1)), the Bank’s obligations under this Agreement shall be suspended as of the date of service unless stayed by appropriate proceedings. If the charges in the notice are dismissed, the Bank may in its
 

5


discretion (i) pay the Employee all or part of the compensation withheld while its contract obligations were suspended, and (ii) reinstate (in whole or in part) any of its obligations which were suspended.
 
(b) If the Employee is removed and/or permanently prohibited from participation in the conduct of the Bank’s affairs by an order issued under Section 8(e)(4) or (g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C. 1818(e)(4) or (g)(1)), the employment of Employee and all obligations of the Bank under this Agreement shall terminate as of the effective date of the order.
 
(c) If the Bank is in default (as defined in Section 3(x)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act), the employment of Employee and all obligations of the Bank under this Agreement shall terminate as of the date of default.
 
(d) The employment of Employee and all obligations of the Bank under this Agreement shall be terminated, except to the extent it is determined that continuation of this Agreement is necessary for the continued operation of the Bank: (i) by the Director of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “Director”) or his or her designee, at the time the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation enters into an agreement to provide assistance to or on behalf of the Bank under the authority contained in Section 13(c) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act; or (ii) by the Director or his or her designee at the time the Director or his or her designee approves a supervisory merger to resolve problems related to operation of the Bank or when the Bank is determined by the Director to be in an unsafe or unsound condition.
 
11. Remedies. Given the important nature of the services Employee will provide to the Bank, the scope and nature of the Bank’s business and the sensitive nature of the information and functions Employee will have with the Bank, Employee acknowledges that the limitations contained herein in paragraphs 7 and 9 are reasonable. In the event of an actual or threatened breach by Employee of the provisions of paragraphs 7 and 9, the Bank shall be entitled to an injunction restraining Employee from such breach in addition to recovery of monetary damages together with the costs and expenses and reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses incurred by Bank in seeking and enforcement such provisions in paragraphs 7 and 9. If Employee violates any covenants contained in paragraphs 7 and 9, the terms and the covenants violated shall be automatically extended to a like period of time from the date on which Employee ceases such violation or from the date of entry by a court of competent jurisdiction of any order or judgment enforcing such covenant, whichever period is later.
 
12. Tax Liability. It is the intention of Bank and Employee that any and all payments Employee receives pursuant to this Agreement are reasonable compensation for services provided by Employee to Bank during the term hereof, and together with any other payments due to Employee from Bank or its successor (“other payments”), shall not constitute “excess parachute payments” within the meaning of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. If the Internal Revenue Service or the independent accountants acting as auditors for Bank or its successor determine that the compensation by itself or together with other payments constitute “excess parachute payments, “ the payments hereunder shall be reduced to the maximum amount which may be paid without constituting the payments as “excess parachute payments.” If, regardless of the aforesaid adjustment, the
 

6


Internal Revenue Service determines that the payments constitute “excess parachute payments” under Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code, Bank shall assume responsibility for the loss of any tax deductions, and Employee shall assume responsibility for payment of any income and excise taxes attributable to the excess parachute payment.
 
13. Successors and Assigns. The Bank may assign this Agreement or any part hereof; but Employee shall not assign this Agreement or any part hereof. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successor, assign, heir or personal representative of either party hereto.
 
14. Covenants and Promises Survive Termination of Employment. The Employee agrees that the obligations, duties and covenants contained in paragraphs 7, 9 and 12 shall survive termination of this Agreement and employment.
 
15. Severability. The parties agree that each and every paragraph, sentence, clause, term, word and provisions of this Agreement is severable and that, in the event any portion of this Agreement is adjudged to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining portions thereof shall remain in full force and effect to the fullest extent permitted by law. If any part of paragraph 9 of this Agreement is for any reason excessively broad as to time duration or geographic scope, activity or subject, it will be construed by a court by limiting or reducing it so as to be enforceable to the extent compatible with applicable law as it then exists.
 
16. Miscellaneous. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all of such together shall constitute one and the same instrument. The section headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.
 
17. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with and be governed exclusively by the laws of the State of Indiana. The parties expressly agree that any and all actions concerning any dispute arising from this Agreement shall be filed and maintained only in a state court of competent jurisdiction sitting in the Marion County State of Indiana or the federal U.S. District Court, Southern District of Indiana and each party consents to such jurisdiction.
 
18. Waiver. No waiver by the Bank, of any breach hereunder by the Employee shall be deemed or construed as a waiver of any other breach or of any subsequent breach. The Employee acknowledges that the Bank for business reasons or otherwise, may waive a breach by another individual of provisions similar to the provisions agreed to by the Employee in this Agreement. The Employee acknowledges that no waiver by the Bank, of any other individuals’ breach of provisions similar to the provisions in this Agreement shall be construed as a waiver of any breach by the Employee of this Agreement.
 
19. Notices. All notices required to be given under the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to be given when delivered personally or sent by registered or certified mail, facsimile transmission, or electronic mail to the last known residence address Employee has on file with the Bank, or in case of Bank, to the business address of the Bank.
 
20. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the complete agreement between
 

7


the parties with regard to the subject matter addressed herein, shall supersede any and all previous agreements and/or commitments, whether oral or written, between the parties and shall not be amended or modified absent an agreement signed by both parties. The parties further agree that no verbal or other statements, discussions, or impressions, other than those provisions contained in this Agreement, have been relied upon by either party in executing this Agreement.
 
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have signed, or caused a duly authorized agent thereof to sign, this Agreement on their behalf and thereby acknowledge their intent to be bound by its terms and conditions.

Re:
Merger of Union Community Bancorp with and into MainSource Financial Group, Inc.
 
Gentlemen:
 
We have acted as counsel to Union Community Bancorp, an Indiana corporation (“UCBC”), and Union Federal Savings and Loan Association, a federal savings association and wholly-owned subsidiary of UCBC (“Union Federal”, and together with UCBC, the “UCBC Entities”) in connection with the preparation, execution, and delivery of that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger dated ________________ (the “Merger Agreement”), by and between MainSource Financial Group, Inc., an Indiana corporation (“MainSource”), UCBC and Union Federal, pursuant to which UCBC will be merged with and into MainSource effective as of __________________ (the “Effective Date”), and pursuant to which Union Federal will be merged with and into MSBC effective as of the Effective Date.  We have been asked to furnish this opinion to you on behalf of UCBC in connection with the Merger Agreement and pursuant to Section 8.01(l) of the Merger Agreement.
 
Unless separately defined herein, the capitalized words and phrases used herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Merger Agreement.

K.
Such other documents and instruments as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purposes of rendering the opinions set forth herein.
 
The documents referred to in Paragraphs A through D above are sometimes referred to collectively herein as the “Transaction Documents.”
 
For purposes of this opinion, we have examined the above documents and have made such examination of Indiana law and the laws of the United States as we have deemed necessary and appropriate.  We have relied upon the above documents as to matters of fact.  We have not independently checked or verified the accuracy or completeness of the information set forth or certified in such documents.
 
In connection with this opinion, we advise you that we have not made any special examination of and are not expressing any opinion regarding the affairs or financial condition of the UCBC Entities except as otherwise expressly stated herein.
 
Except as otherwise expressly stated herein, this opinion should in no way be construed as passing upon the accuracy or completeness of any of the representations or warranties which may be or have been made to you in connection with the Transaction Documents or any other instrument and agreement contemplated by the Transaction Documents or on any other matters, legal or otherwise, not specifically covered herein. In examining the above listed items, we have assumed with respect to all documents examined
 



by us the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, and the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to us as certified, conformed, photostatic or telefacsimile copies.  In addition, in making our examination of the documents described herein which have been executed by parties other than directors and officers of the UCBC Entities, we have assumed that all such other parties had the power to enter into and perform all obligations thereunder, that all such other parties were duly authorized by all requisite action to execute, deliver and perform their respective obligations thereunder, that all signatories on all such documents were duly qualified and incumbent parties with the proper authority to execute all such documents, and the due execution and delivery of all such documents and the validity and binding effect of all such documents on such other parties.
 
As to certain facts material to our opinion which we did not independently establish or verify, we have been furnished with, and have relied upon (i) certificates of officers and other representatives of the UCBC Entities delivered to us in connection with this opinion (the “Officer’s Certificates”), and (ii) the representations and warranties of UCBC set forth in the Merger Agreement.  With respect to matters relating to the organization and existence of UCBC addressed in the first paragraph below, we have obtained and relied upon a Certificate of Existence from the Office of the Indiana Secretary of State for UCBC, and with respect to matters relating to the organization and existence of Union Federal addressed in the second paragraph below, we have obtained and relied upon a Certificate of Good Standing issued by the Office of Thrift Supervision.  Other than as specifically set forth herein, it is understood that we have not undertaken any independent investigation to determine the existence or absence of such facts.
 
As used herein, “to our knowledge” or words or phrases of similar import shall mean (i) we have relied, without any independent investigation or inquiry, solely upon the Officer’s Certificates, and (ii) during the course of our representation of the UCBC Entities, no information that would give us current actual knowledge of the inaccuracy of such statement has come within the conscious awareness of lawyers in our office who are actively involved in negotiating the Transaction Documents or preparing documents in furtherance of the transaction which is the subject of the Transaction Documents.  Information shall not be deemed to be within our knowledge if such information might have been revealed if there had been undertaken a canvass of all lawyers within this firm or a general search of the firm’s files.
 
We are qualified to practice law in the State of Indiana and for purposes of this letter and this transaction, we do not purport to be experts on, or to express an opinion herein concerning, the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Indiana and the laws of the United States of general application to transactions in the State of Indiana.  For purposes of rendering this opinion, we have assumed that all matters of law relevant to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby will be governed by the laws of the State of Indiana and the federal laws of the United States.  We express no opinion as to state or federal securities or tax laws.
 
For purposes of this opinion, we also have assumed the following:  (i) the legal capacity of natural persons; (ii) that MainSource and MSBC are duly organized and validly
 



existing; (iii) that the conduct of all of the parties to the Transaction Documents and the other instruments and agreements contemplated by the Transaction Documents has complied with any requirement of good faith, fair dealing, and conscionability; (iv) that there has been no mutual mistake of fact or misunderstanding, fraud, duress, or undue influence; and (v) that the execution, delivery, and performance of the Transaction Documents and the other instruments and agreements contemplated by the Transaction Documents will not violate, contravene, conflict with or result in a breach of (A) any statute, rule, regulation, ordinance or other law of any jurisdiction other than the State of Indiana or the federal government of the United States, or (B) any license, judgment, order, writ, injunction or decree of any court, arbitrator or governmental agency or body or any indenture agreement or instrument to which either of the UCBC Entities is a party or by which either of the UCBC Entities or its properties are bound, the existence of which is not known to us.
 
Based solely on the foregoing examination, and subject to and relying on the assumptions and other matters referred to above and subject to the limitations and qualifications contained herein, we are of the opinion that:
 
1.
UCBC is a corporation duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of Indiana and has all requisite corporate power and authority (including all licenses, franchises, permits and other governmental authorizations which are legally required) to engage in the business and activities now conducted by it.
 
2.
Union Federal is a federal savings association duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the United States, and has full power and authority (including all licenses, franchises, permits and other governmental authorizations which are legally required) to engage in the business activities now conducted by it.
 
3.
Each of the UCBC Entities has full right, legal power, and authority to execute and deliver the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents, and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby and to be consummated thereby.  The Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby have been duly authorized by each of the UCBC Entities, as applicable and as necessary.  The Transaction Documents to which they are party have been duly executed and delivered by the UCBC Entities, respectively, and constitute valid and binding agreements of the UCBC Entities, enforceable against the UCBC Entities in accordance with their terms.
 
4.
The execution, delivery, and performance of the Transaction Documents by the UCBC Entities and the consummation by the UCBC Entities of the transactions therein contemplated will not, directly or indirectly, (i) violate, conflict with or result in the breach of any provision of the UCBC Entities Organizational Documents or (ii) violate any law, rule or regulation applicable to, or, to our knowledge, any judgment, order, or decree which is binding upon, the UCBC Entities.
 

 
The opinions expressed above are subject to the following qualifications:

Our opinions with respect to the legality, validity, binding effect, and enforceability of any document or agreement referenced above and any rights granted to MainSource or MSBC pursuant to any such document or agreement are subject to the effect of any applicable state and/or federal bankruptcy, insolvency, readjustment of debt, receivership, fraudulent conveyance and equitable subordination, reorganization, moratorium, equity of redemption, or similar laws now or hereafter in effect governing or affecting debtors’ and creditors’ rights or remedies generally and to the effect of general principles of equity and matters of public policy (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), including (without limitation) concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith, and fair dealing.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing exceptions, we express no opinion with respect to the availability of the remedies of specific performance, injunctive relief or of any other equitable remedy.
 
 
B.
We have assumed that the execution, delivery, and performance of the Transaction Documents by MainSource and MSBC do not and will not contravene, conflict with, violate or result in breach of (i) any law, statute or ordinance of any jurisdiction applicable solely to MainSource and MSBC and not to the UCBC Entities, (ii) any provision of the constituent documents of MainSource or MSBC, or (iii) any approvals, consents, licenses, orders, writs, judgments, injunctions or decrees of any court, arbitrator, administrative agency or other governmental authority, or any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, agreement, lease or other instrument to which MainSource or MSBC are parties.
 
 
C.
We express no opinion that the structure of the transaction or the performance of the Transaction Documents is or is not in compliance with professional accounting statutes (state or federal), and all rules, regulations, interpretations, statements, ethical codes, professional standards, and licensing requirements relating to accountancy, whether promulgated by any agency of the State of Indiana or any local or national accounting organization or association.
 
 
D.
We wish to advise you that, under Indiana law, contractual indemnification and hold harmless provisions may not be enforceable to the extent the contract does not clearly and unequivocally specify that the indemnity or exculpation covers claims, losses, expenses or other liabilities arising or alleged to arise, in whole or in part, from the negligence, strict liability or other acts or omissions of the indemnified party.  Moreover, indemnification (and presumably exculpation) clauses generally are strictly construed and the terms must be set forth clearly and unequivocally.  Further, indemnification or exculpation as against certain claims, losses, expenses or other liabilities arising as the result of the indemnified party’s violation of federal or state statutes, or the indemnified party’s own tort liability when performing a public or quasi-public duty, or other acts or omissions, may be considered contrary to the public policy and, therefore, invalid and/or unenforceable.
 




 
 
E.
We express no opinion as to the enforceability of provisions of the Transaction Documents relating to (i) consents or waivers as to jurisdiction, (ii) consents or waivers of service of process, (iii) the validity or enforceability of any purported waiver or purported consent relating to any rights of the UCBC Entities or duties owed thereto, existing as a matter of law, (iv) self-help provisions, and (v) waiver of Constitutional rights.
 
 
F.
We express no opinion as to any provisions in the Transaction Documents insofar as they purport to provide that any party (i) may have rights to the payment or reimbursement of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses, except to the extent that a court determines that such fees are reasonable and such provision is enforceable, (ii) may have rights to the payment of any sum of liquidated damages, or (iii) waives any right or defense.
 
 
G.
This opinion is limited to matters expressly stated herein and no opinion is inferred or may be implied beyond the matters expressly stated.  This opinion does not constitute a guarantee of, or security for, the obligations created pursuant to the Transaction Documents or any of the other matters referred to or opined upon herein, and by rendering this opinion, we are not guaranteeing or insuring payment or performance of said transaction.
 
 
H.
This opinion is based on and relies upon the current facts and the current status of the law, and is subject in all respects to, and may be limited by, after the date hereof, changes in the facts, further rules, regulations and legislation, as well as developing caselaw.  We assume no obligation to notify any person of changes in facts or law occurring or coming to our attention after the delivery of this opinion letter, whether or not deemed material.
 
 
I.
The opinions expressed herein represent our reasonable judgment as to certain matters of law based upon the facts presented or assumed and should not be considered or construed as a guarantee.  Actions and reliance hereon are subject to the final business judgment of the parties acting in reliance.
 
This letter is solely for your information in connection with the transaction specified in the first paragraph of this letter and may be relied upon only by you in connection with such transaction.  This letter may not be quoted in whole or in part by any entity, nor is it to be filed with any governmental agency or any other person or institution without the prior written consent of this firm.

K.
Such other documents and instruments as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purposes of rendering the opinions set forth herein.
 
The documents referred to in Paragraphs A through D above are sometimes referred to collectively herein as the “Transaction Documents.”
 
For purposes of this opinion, we have examined the above documents and have made such examination of Indiana law and the laws of the United States as we have deemed necessary and appropriate.  We have relied upon the above documents as to matters of fact.  We have not independently checked or verified the accuracy or completeness of the information set forth or certified in such documents.
 
In connection with this opinion, we advise you that we have not made any special examination of and are not expressing any opinion regarding the affairs or financial condition of the MainSource Entities except as otherwise expressly stated herein.
 
Except as otherwise expressly stated herein, this opinion should in no way be construed as passing upon the accuracy or completeness of any of the representations or warranties which may be or have been made to you in connection with the Transaction Documents or any other instrument and agreement contemplated by the Transaction Documents or on any other matters, legal or otherwise, not specifically covered herein.  In examining the above listed items, we have assumed with respect to all documents examined by us the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, and the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to us as certified, conformed, photostatic or telefacsimile copies.  In addition, in making our examination of the documents described herein which have been executed by parties other than directors and officers of the MainSource Entities, we have assumed that all such other parties had the power
 



to enter into and perform all obligations thereunder, that all such other parties were duly authorized by all requisite action to execute, deliver and perform their respective obligations thereunder, that all signatories on all such documents were duly qualified and incumbent parties with the proper authority to execute all such documents, and the due execution and delivery of all such documents and the validity and binding effect of all such documents on such other parties.
 
As to certain facts material to our opinion which we did not independently establish or verify, we have been furnished with, and have relied upon (i) certificates of officers and other representatives of the MainSource Entities delivered to us in connection with this opinion (the “Officer’s Certificates”), and (ii) the representations and warranties of MainSource set forth in the Merger Agreement.  With respect to matters relating to the organization and existence of MainSource addressed in the first paragraph below, we have obtained and relied upon a Certificate of Existence from the Office of the Indiana Secretary of State for MainSource, and with respect to matters relating to the organization and existence of MSBC addressed in the second paragraph below, we have obtained and relied upon Certificates of Existence respecting MSBC issued by the Indiana Department of Financial Institutions and the Indiana Secretary of State.  Other than as specifically set forth herein, it is understood that we have not undertaken any independent investigation to determine the existence or absence of such facts.
 
As used herein, “to our knowledge” or words or phrases of similar import shall mean (i) we have relied, without any independent investigation or inquiry, solely upon the Officer’s Certificates, and (ii) during the course of our representation of the MainSource Entities, no information that would give us current actual knowledge of the inaccuracy of such statement has come within the conscious awareness of lawyers in our office who are actively involved in negotiating the Transaction Documents or preparing documents in furtherance of the transaction which is the subject of the Transaction Documents.  Information shall not be deemed to be within our knowledge if such information might have been revealed if there had been undertaken a canvass of all lawyers within this Firm or a general search of the Firm’s files.
 
We are qualified to practice law only in the State of Indiana and we do not purport to be experts on, or to express an opinion herein concerning, the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Indiana and the laws of the United States of general application to transactions in the State of Indiana.  For purposes of rendering this opinion, we have assumed that all matters of law relevant to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby will be governed by the laws of the State of Indiana and the federal laws of the United States.  We express no opinion as to state or federal securities or tax laws.
 
For purposes of this opinion, we also have assumed the following:  (i) the legal capacity of natural persons; (ii) that UCBC and Union Federal are duly organized and validly existing; (iii) that the conduct of all of the parties to the Transaction Documents and the other instruments and agreements contemplated by the Transaction Documents has complied with any requirement of good faith, fair dealing, and conscionability; (iv) that there has been no mutual mistake of fact or misunderstanding, fraud, duress, or undue influence; and (v) that the execution, delivery, and performance of the Transaction Documents and the other instruments and agreements contemplated by the Transaction Documents will not violate, contravene, conflict with or result in a breach of (A) any statute, rule, regulation, ordinance or other law of
 



any jurisdiction other than the State of Indiana or the federal government of the United States, or (B) any license, judgment, order, writ, injunction or decree of any court, arbitrator or governmental agency or body or any indenture agreement or instrument to which either of the MainSource Entities is a party or by which either of the MainSource Entities or its properties are bound, the existence of which is not known to us.
 
Based solely on the foregoing examination, and subject to and relying on the assumptions and other matters referred to above and subject to the limitations and qualifications contained herein, we are of the opinion that:
 
1.
MainSource is a corporation duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of Indiana and has all requisite corporate power and authority (including all licenses, franchises, permits and other governmental authorizations which are legally required) to engage in the business and activities now conducted by it.
 
2.
MSBC is a commercial banking association duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of Indiana, and has full power and authority (including all licenses, franchises, permits and other governmental authorizations which are legally required) to engage in the business activities now conducted by it.
 
3.
Each of the MainSource Entities has full right, legal power, and authority to execute and deliver the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents, and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby and to be consummated thereby.  The Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby have been duly authorized by each of the MainSource Entities, as applicable and as necessary.  The Transaction Documents to which they are party have been duly executed and delivered by the MainSource Entities, respectively, and constitute valid and binding agreements of the MainSource Entities, enforceable against the MainSource Entities in accordance with their terms.
 
4.
The execution, delivery, and performance of the Transaction Documents by the MainSource Entities and the consummation by the MainSource Entities of the transactions therein contemplated will not, directly or indirectly, (i) violate, conflict with or result in the breach of any provision of the MainSource Entities Organizational Documents or (ii) violate any law, rule or regulation applicable to, or, to our knowledge, any judgment, order, or decree which is binding upon, the MainSource Entities.
 

 
The opinions expressed above are subject to the following qualifications:
 
 
A.
Our opinions with respect to the legality, validity, binding effect, and enforceability of any document or agreement referenced above and any rights granted to UCBC or Union Federal pursuant to any such document or agreement are subject to the effect of any applicable state and/or federal bankruptcy, insolvency, readjustment of debt, receivership, fraudulent conveyance and equitable subordination, reorganization, moratorium, equity of redemption, or similar laws now or hereafter in effect governing or affecting debtors’ and creditors’ rights or remedies generally and to the effect of general
 



principles of equity and matters of public policy (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), including (without limitation) concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith, and fair dealing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing exceptions, we express no opinion with respect to the availability of the remedies of specific performance, injunctive relief or of any other equitable remedy.
 
 
B.
We have assumed that the execution, delivery, and performance of the Transaction Documents by UCBC and Union Federal do not and will not contravene, conflict with, violate or result in breach of (i) any law, statute or ordinance of any jurisdiction applicable solely to UCBC and Union Federal and not to the MainSource Entities, (ii) any provision of the constituent documents of UCBC or Union Federal, or (iii) any approvals, consents, licenses, orders, writs, judgments, injunctions or decrees of any court, arbitrator, administrative agency or other governmental authority, or any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, agreement, lease or other instrument to which UCBC or Union Federal are parties.
 
 
C.
We express no opinion that the structure of the transaction or the performance of the Transaction Documents is or is not in compliance with professional accounting statutes (state or federal), and all rules, regulations, interpretations, statements, ethical codes, professional standards, and licensing requirements relating to accountancy, whether promulgated by any agency of the State of Indiana or any local or national accounting organization or association.
 
 
D.
We wish to advise you that, under Indiana law, contractual indemnification and hold harmless provisions may not be enforceable to the extent the contract does not clearly and unequivocally specify that the indemnity or exculpation covers claims, losses, expenses or other liabilities arising or alleged to arise, in whole or in part, from the negligence, strict liability or other acts or omissions of the indemnified party.  Moreover, indemnification (and presumably exculpation) clauses generally are strictly construed and the terms must be set forth clearly and unequivocally.  Further, indemnification or exculpation as against certain claims, losses, expenses or other liabilities arising as the result of the indemnified party’s violation of federal or state statutes, or the indemnified party’s own tort liability when performing a public or quasi-public duty, or other acts or omissions, may be considered contrary to the public policy and, therefore, invalid and/or unenforceable.
 
 
E.
We express no opinion as to the enforceability of provisions of the Transaction Documents relating to (i) consents or waivers as to jurisdiction, (ii) consents or waivers of service of process, (iii) the validity or enforceability of any purported waiver or purported consent relating to any rights of the MainSource Entities or duties owed thereto, existing as a matter of law, (iv) self-help provisions, and (v) waiver of Constitutional rights.
 
 
F.
We express no opinion as to any provisions in the Transaction Documents insofar as they purport to provide that any party (i) may have rights to the payment or reimbursement of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses, except to
 



the extent that a court determines that such fees are reasonable and such provision is enforceable, (ii) may have rights to the payment of any sum of liquidated damages, or (iii) waives any right or defense.
 
 
G.
This opinion is limited to matters expressly stated herein and no opinion is inferred or may be implied beyond the matters expressly stated.  This opinion does not constitute a guarantee of, or security for, the obligations created pursuant to the Transaction Documents or any of the other matters referred to or opined upon herein, and by rendering this opinion, we are not guaranteeing or insuring payment or performance of said transaction.
 
 
H.
This opinion is based on and relies upon the current facts and the current status of the law, and is subject in all respects to, and may be limited by, after the date hereof, changes in the facts, further rules, regulations and legislation, as well as developing caselaw.  We assume no obligation to notify any person of changes in facts or law occurring or coming to our attention after the delivery of this opinion letter, whether or not deemed material.
 
 
I.
The opinions expressed herein represent our reasonable judgment as to certain matters of law based upon the facts presented or assumed and should not be considered or construed as a guarantee.  Actions and reliance hereon are subject to the final business judgment of the parties acting in reliance.
 
This letter is solely for your information in connection with the transaction specified in the first paragraph of this letter and may be relied upon only by you in connection with such transaction.  This letter may not be quoted in whole or in part by any entity, nor is it to be filed with any governmental agency or any other person or institution without the prior written consent of this firm.
