Item 8. Exhibits.

 

4.01   Specimen Stock Certificate of Ottawa Savings Bancorp (1)

10.01   Ottawa Savings Bank Employee Savings & Profit Sharing Plan and Trust (2)
23.01   Consent of McGladrey & Pullen, LLP
24.01   Power of Attorney (contained on signature page)

(1) Incorporated by reference herein from Exhibit 4.1 of the Registrant’s Form SB-2 (File No. 333-123455) filed with the SEC on March 18, 2005, as amended.
(2) Incorporated by reference herein from Exhibit 10.7 of the Registrant’s Form SB-2 (File No. 333-123455) filed with the SEC on March 18, 2005, as amended.

 

Item 9. Undertakings.

 

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

 

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement unless the information or prospectus required by (i) and (ii) is contained in periodic reports filed by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference into this registration statement:

 

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

 

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement; and

 

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.

 

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; and


(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

(4) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to trustees, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in such Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a trustee, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such trustee, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in such Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

 

The registrant has submitted or will submit the Plan and amendments thereto to the IRS in a timely manner and has made or will make all changes required by the IRS in order to qualify the Plan.
