Amendment, Modification, and Termination of the Plan: The Board or its designated committee may at any time terminate, and from time to time may amend or modify the Plan, except that no amendment shall increase the amount of an award payable to a Participant or group of Participants and except that no such termination shall be effective with respect to the Performance Period(s) then in effect. 3 V. OVERALL PLAN ADMINISTRATION (continued) Expenses of the Plan: The expenses of the Plan shall be allocated proportionately among the Company and the Bank based on the relative compensation expense, other than the expense of this Plan, incurred by the Company and the Bank for each Participant in the Plan. VI. SHAREHOLDER VALUE PLAN 1. Plan Overview: The shareholder value plan is predicated on the belief that executives should receive long-term incentive awards commensurate to the return shareholders receive in stock price appreciation and dividends. If relative to other companies the Company performs well, this plan will provide substantial awards to executives. Conversely, if the Company performs poorly in terms of stock price appreciation and dividends, this plan will provide no awards. 2. Performance Period: Performance will be measured over a three year period. A new three-year Performance Period will begin each year. As a result, at any given time three overlapping shareholder value plans will be in effect. 3. Performance Measure: Before the beginning of each Performance Period, the Chairman/CEO shall propose the criteria and performance goals upon which Company performance will be based. These must be approved by the Board. For the initial Performance Period, the criterion is the Company's Total Shareholder Return relative to: (1) comparable thrift industry companies, and (2) the S&P 500 stock index. Specifically, the plan will be activated if the Company's Total Shareholder Return for the Performance Period is in the 51st percentile or better when compared to thrift industry companies. Once activated, the final award size will depend on the Company's percentile rank in Total Shareholder Return relative to the return of S&P 500 companies over the Performance Period. 4. Award Opportunities: Before the beginning of each Performance Period, the Chairman/CEO shall propose award opportunities for each Participant group. As a general guideline, award opportunities will correspond to the competitive market practices and the relative priority placed by the Company on achieving annual versus long-term performance goals. These must be approved by the Board. Participants will be assigned a "Target" award opportunity stated as a percent of base salary. The Target level is the amount that will be paid for exactly achieving Target performance goals. Initial Target award levels are stated as follows: . 25 percent of base salaries for Group I positions . 20 percent of base salaries for Group II positions . 11 percent of base salaries for Group III positions 4 VI. SHAREHOLDER VALUE PLAN (continued) 5. Award Distribution: Each Participant will be awarded a number of Performance Units based on the Participant's base salary and his/her assigned Target award opportunity. Performance Units will have a Target value of $100. The number of units awarded will be determined by multiplying each Participant's base salary by the Target award opportunity, and the result divided by $100. At the end of each Performance Period, the value of each Performance Unit will be determined based on the following schedule: Performance Performance Company TSR Percentile Level Unit Value Rank Among S&P 500 ----- ---------- ------------------ Threshold $ 50 50th $ 75 55th Target $100 60th $125 65th $150 70th $175 75th $200 80th $225 85th Superior $250 90th The calculation of a Participant's award for a Performance Period shall be made by multiplying the number of Performance Units granted by the Performance Unit value. The award will be distributed in cash. 6. Timing of Award Payments: Except as outlined in Section VII, all awards made under the Plan (i.e., cash) shall be paid to Participants within 30 days after the date on which the independent certified public accountants have determined the Company's percentile rank on a Total Shareholder Return basis among the S&P 500. 7. Change in Control: Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control of the company (as such term is defined in the MAF Bancorp 1990 Incentive Stock Option Plan), Participants' awards for each of the three shareholder value plans then in effect shall be calculated based on the applicable performance criteria without regard to whether the full three year performance period has been completed for each of the overlapping plans. In such case, the performance period shall be deemed to have ended as of the end of the latest calendar quarter preceding the closing of any Change in Control transaction. The award calculated for each of the three overlapping plans shall then be reduced on a pro rata basis based on the ratio of the number of months actually completed in the performance period to thirty-six months. 5 VII. CHANGES IN EMPLOYEE STATUS When a Participant's employment is terminated, voluntarily or involuntarily, prior to vesting of Performance Units for reasons other than death, retirement or disability, the Participant will forfeit all rights to unvested awards. Terminating participants are entitled to receive vested Performance Units at the same time that active Participants receive their awards. Termination during a Performance Period for reasons of death, retirement or disability will result in a pro rata payment based on the number of full months of employment during the Performance Period(s) as a percent of the total months of the Performance Period(s). Payment of awards, if earned, shall be made at the same time that active Participants receive their awards. VIII. BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION Each Participant under the Plan may, from time to time, name any beneficiary or beneficiaries (who may be named contingentally or successively) to whom any benefit under the Plan is to be paid in case of the Participant's death before he or she receives any or all of such benefit. Each designation will revoke all prior designations by the same Participant, shall be in a form prescribed by the Committee and will be effective only when filed by the Participant in writing with the Committee during his/her lifetime. In the absence of any such designation, benefits remaining unpaid at the Participant's death shall be paid to the estate of the Participant. IX. TAX WITHHOLDING Upon payment of awards under the Plan, the amount of tax required by any governmental authority to be withheld shall be deducted from each distribution of cash. X. RIGHTS OF EMPLOYERS Nothing in the Plan shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company to terminate any Participant's employment at any time nor confer upon any Participant any right to continue in the employ of the Company. 6 CERTIFICATE OF RESOLUTION I, Carolyn Pihera, do hereby certify that I am the duly elected and acting Secretary of Mid America Federal Savings Bank, and that the following is a true and correct copy of a certain resolution adopted by the Board of Directors of said Bank at their regular meeting held June 27, 1995, at which meeting a quorum of the members of said Bank were present and acting throughout: NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Board amends Section IV, Eligibility and Participation, and Section VI (4), Award Opportunities, by adding Gail Brzostek, Vice President - Check Operations and Diane Stutte, Vice President - Teller Operations as new Group IV participants whose target award levels will be equal to 6% of base salaries.
