Acquisition or Disposition of Assets On July 1, 1996, Baylake Corp. ("Baylake") consummated its previously announced acquisition of Four Seasons of Wis., Inc. ("Four Seasons"). Four Seasons owns 100% of the shares of The Bank ("Bank"), with two full service offices in Manawa, which is approximately 35 miles west of Green Bay and King, a nearby community. Plans for the acquisition were previously announced by Baylake. Baylake acquired Four Seasons pursuant to a Agreement and Plan of Acquisition dated as of March 13, 1996. To consummate the acquisition, Baylake has paid thus far an aggregate of $13,875,000, including $13,800,000 plus 50% (or $75,000) of the estimated income of Four Seasons for 1996 up to the effective date of the transaction. The remaining 50% of estimated net income is placed in escrow with Baylake Bank until completion and review of a certified audit confirming financial data for Four Seasons for the six months ended June 30, 1996. Any adjustment to final net income due shall be made at that time and the remaining income shall be paid out. To the extent that there is any increase in actual income which exceeds the amount held in escrow, Baylake has agreed to pay such increase at that time. The acquisition was negotiated at arm's length between Baylake and the representatives of Four Seasons (who are not affiliated with Baylake). The transaction is being accounted for by Baylake using the purchase method of accounting. Item 7.

The financial statements will be filed as soon as possible, not more than 60 days 3 after the filing hereof.
