1 EXHIBIT 10p DATA PROCESSING SERVICES AGREEMENT THIS DATA PROCESSING SERVICES AGREEMENT is made as of this 3rd day of July, (the "Agreement") by and between M&I Data Services, a division of the Marshall & Isley Corporation, a Wisconsin corporation ("M&I") and PremierBank & Trust, an Ohio corporation, (the "Customer"). RECITALS WHEREAS, M&I provides data processing services to customers located across the country; and WHEREAS, M&l desires to provide data processing services to Customer, and Customer desires to have M&I provide it with such services. NOW, ThEREFORE, in consideration of the recitals and for the good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 1. SERVICES. M&I shall provide Customer with the data processing services requested by Customer utilizing the version of the banking system software made available from time to time by M&I through the M&I Service Bureau (the "Services"). The functionality of the software and a further description of the Services is set forth in the User ManuaIs, copies of which will be provided, or made available, to Customer. Customer shall purchase the data processing services indicated on Exhibit A and Exhibit A-I from M&I. Unless otherwise agreed in writing between M&I and Customer, and subject to the other provisions of the Agreement, M&I shall make the On-line Services available to Customer, subject to normal downtime and maintenance, at times indicated on the M&I On-line Availability Schedule, as modified from time to time. 2. FEES AND TAXES. Customer agrees to pay for the Services received hereunder as follows: a. AMOUNT OF FEES. Commencing on the Conversion Date (as defined in Section 3) and on the first day of each month thereafter through the end of the term of this Agreement, Customer shall pay M&I a fixed monthly fee of forty-seven thousand four hundred sixty-three dollars ($47,463) per month (the "Fixed Monthly Fee") for the Services described on Exhibit A (provided however, commencing with the February 1997 invoice, and each month thereafter through March 1998, M&I will provide Customer a credit of fifteen thousand dollars ($15,000) against Monthly Processing charges. For Services requested by Customer in addition to those on Exhibit A, Customer shall pay in accordance with M&I's then-current standard published prices. The Fixed Monthly Fee will be adjusted in accordance with the provisions of Exhibit B. Customer also agrees to pay all communication costs, telecommunication charges, printline charges and other output costs. For Customer requested applications, not contemplated by this Agreement, Customer shall preapprove and pay all start-up fees, pass-through charges, out-of-pocket expenses, conversion expenses and fees, workshop fees, training fees, as well as, late 1 2 fees or charges billed as miscellaneous on Customer's invoice (the "Miscellaneous Fees"). The M&I standard published prices as of the date of this Agreement are set forth on the fee schedule attached as Exhibit C. b. DISCOUNT. M&I shall provide Customer with a ten percent (10%)discount on Services not included in the Fixed Monthly Fee and which are a part of M&I's 19% standard published price list (exclusive of EFT Services, STAR View, and CFI Laserpro Maintenance which shall not be discounted, and Management Data Warehouse which shall be discounted in accordance with the special provisions contained in Exhibit A4) excluding communication costs, telecommunication charges, printline charges and other output costs, start-up fees, pass-through charges, out-of-pocket expenses, conversion expenses and fees, workshop fees, training fees, late fees, or charges billed as Miscellaneous on the Customer's invoice. The discount shall be in effect for the term of the Agreement c. PRICE ADJUSTMENTS. M&I standard published charges are set forth on the fee schedule attached as Exhibit B. M&I may modify its standard published charges for Services not included in the Fixed Monthly Fee from time to time (the "Price Change Date"). M&I agrees to provide Customer with thirty (30) days' written notice of any price increases prior to effectiveness of the price increase. During each twelve (12) month period ending on the Price Change Date (or such shorter period from the date this Agreement becomes effective to the first Price Change Date), Customer shall receive a credit if the increase in the standard published charges used to compute Customer's invoice causes a total increase of more than the lesser of five percent (5%) or the increase in the Consumer Price Index (CH, all items-U), as published by the U.S. Department of Labor or any successor index (based on comparing the same mix of volume and services, as described below). The Services and associated volumes (excluding any credits or Miscellaneous Fees) on the three (3) most recent Customers' invoices preceding the announcement of any price adjustment shall be used to calculate the percentage change (the "Adjustment Period"). If during the first year of this Agreement, three (3) invoices are not available, the volumes processed during the prior month, or to be processed during the current month, if the conversion occurs during the month prior to the Price Change Date, shall be used to compute the percentage change. If the net increase exceeds the annual ceiling, the dollar difference will be credited to the Customer on each month's invoice (the "Price Adjustment Credit"). For example, if the price increase is announced in January, M&I will apply the increased prices to the volumes and Services invoiced to Customer during the months of October, November, and December. The total of the three (3) months, computed based on the actual invoices and recomputed using the increased prices, is then compared. The amount by which the difference exceeds the annual ceiling is divided by three; the result is the Price Adjustment Credit to be applied against Customer's invoice until the next price increase. If, for example, the total monthly charges for October, November, and December were fifty thousand dollars) ($50,000), a ten percent (10%) cap would limit the recomputed fees to fifty-five thousand dollars ($55,000). If the recomputed fees are fifty-five thousand dollars ($55,000) or less, the Customer receives no Price Adjustment Credit If the recomputed fees were fifty-eight thousand dollars ($58,000), the Customer would receive a Price Adjustment Credit of one thousand dollars ($1,000) per month on each subsequent monthly invoice until the next price increase. 2 3 d. ADDITIONAL CHARGES. In addition to the charges described above or set forth in Exhibit C, Customer agrees to pay for any manufacturers, sales, use, excise, personal property, or any other tax or charge, or duty or assessment levied or assessed by any governmental authority upon or as a result of the execution or performance of any service pursuant to this Agreement or materials furnished with respect to the Agreement, except those taxes based on M&I's net income, franchise, or personal property. e. TERMS OF PAYMENT. Customer shall pay the Fixed Monthly Fee on the first day of the month in which the Services are to be performed. Any other amounts due hereunder shall be paid within thirty (30) days of invoice, unless otherwise provided herein. To effect the payment, Customer hereby authorizes M&I to initiate debit entries from and, if necessary, initiate credit entries and adjustments to Customer's account at the depository designated in the ACH Authorization Agreement. Debit entries for the Fixed Monthly Fee will be made on the first day of each month for which Services will be rendered under the Agreement In the event that a payment day is a nonbusiness day, entries will be made on the first preceding business day.

The Customer shall also pay any collection fees and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by M&I in collecting payment of the charges and any other amounts for which Customer is liable under the terms and conditions of this Agreement, except for amounts disputed in good faith in accordance with the provisions of the following paragraph. Should Customer reasonably and in good faith dispute any fees so billed, Customer may withhold payment for the disputed amount provided Customer notifies M&I of such disagreements or objections within the prescribed thirty (30) day period; however, the Fixed Monthly Fee and any undisputed amounts shall be promptly paid as described above. The parties agree to promptly attempt to resolve the dispute, and further agree if the disputed invoice is not resolved within sixty (60) days of the invoice date, the chief executive officers of the parties shall meet to resolve the dispute. f.
