conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time:

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

|
|
|
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 Sections 3.02 and 3.06 hereof (the
“Stock Consideration”).
The Cash
Consideration and the Stock Consideration are sometimes referred to

exercise price for each share of UCBC Common Stock subject to such

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.

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

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:

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

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
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
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
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
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.
(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.

exception to one or more representations or warranties contained in
this Article IV or to one or more of its covenants contained in

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

the Mergers or

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

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

For the purpose of this Agreement, and in
relation to MainSource, "knowledge" means (i) the actual knowledge
of any officer or director of MainSource or any of its subsidiaries
and any other person having supervisory or management
responsibilities with respect to material aspects of the operation
of the business of MainSource or its subsidiaries of a particular
fact.

utilized as of the date hereof. 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.

decree; or (iii) conflicts with, results in a breach of or
constitutes a material default under any note, bond, indenture,

Material Adverse Effect on the financial condition, results of
operations, business, assets, or capital of UCBC or Union
Federal.
6.04. Insurance . UCBC and Union Federal shall maintain, or
cause to be maintained, in full force and effect, insurance on its
assets, properties and operations, fidelity coverage and directors'
and officers' liability insurance in such amounts and with regard
to such liabilities and hazards as are currently insured by UCBC or

date of this Agreement and promptly thereafter until the Effective
Time to reflect any changes, provide MainSource with a list
identifying each person who may be deemed to be an affiliate of
UCBC for purposes of Rule 145 under the Securities Act of 1933 (the
"1933 Act"). On or before the date on which such initial list of
affiliates is provided to MainSource, and thereafter as may be
required for a person who may be deemed an affiliate of UCBC
following such date, UCBC shall obtain from each director,
executive officer and other person who may be deemed to be such an
affiliate of UCBC to deliver to MainSource on or prior to the

attached hereto as Exhibit 6.05 .

and until the Effective Time or until this Agreement is terminated
as herein provided, except with the prior written approval of
MainSource, neither UCBC nor Union Federal shall permit or

encourage, or provide information to, any corporation, association,

stock) or similar transaction relating to UCBC or Union Federal or
to which UCBC or Union Federal may become a party (all such
transactions are hereinafter referred to as "Acquisition
Transactions").
(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
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,
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
transactions
contemplated by this Agreement are being discussed.
