Footnotes

F1: Based on an account valuation as of June 21, 2005, reflecting the settlement of inter-plan transfers into the stock fund which occurred on June 17, 2005.

F2: The closing price of Associated Banc-Corp common stock on June 17, 2005 was $33.84 per share.

F3: "Share units" were based on a NAV of $33.84 per share as of June 17, 2005.

Change in amount reflects "change" in shares due to fluctuations in market value from one valuation date to the next.

Share "units" are converted, for reporting and communication purposes, to "shares" of stock. The number of "shares" reported under this Plan are based on the NAV at valuation end, divided by the share price. However, there is also a cash component to the stock fund, which varies throughout the year. Due to this NAV and cash variation from valuation to valuation, the number of shares will appear to change because of the accounting procedures used to valuate the Plan.
