remarketing of $398.6 million aggregate principal amount of

in 2004 as a component of M&I's 6.50% Common SPACES(SM). In
connection with this remarketing, M&I will issue a two-year
senior note in exchange for the outstanding STACKS. Each Common
SPACES initially consisted of (i) a stock purchase contract to
purchase, in accordance with a settlement rate formula, shares of
M&I common stock on August 15, 2007, and (ii) a 1/40, or 2.5%,
undivided beneficial interests in a preferred security, referred to

interest rate on the remarketed STACKS will be reset at 5.626%, the
maturity date will be changed to August 17, 2009, and interest on
the STACKS will be payable semi-annually on February 15 and August
15 of each year. Immediately following completion of the successful
remarketing of the STACKS, M&I will liquidate M&I Capital
Trust B and distribute senior notes to purchasers in the
remarketing in exchange for the STACKS. The senior notes will have
the same interest rate, maturity and payment dates as the
remarketed STACKS. The remarketing is scheduled to close on August
15, 2007, subject to customary conditions. Proceeds of the
remarketing, after deducting the remarketing fee payable to the
remarketing agents, will be used to satisfy the obligations of
holders of the Common SPACES to purchase M&I common stock under
the stock purchase contract, and any proceeds remaining after
satisfaction of the holders' obligations under the stock purchase
contract will be distributed to the holders participating in the
remarketing. On August 15, 2007, upon settlement of each stock
purchase contract, M&I will deliver approximately 0.5767 shares
