Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

(e) Company enters into deferred compensation agreement with officer.

Effective on April 6, 2010, the Board of Directors of Denmark State Bank ("DSB") entered into an unfunded nonqualified deferred compensation agreement (the "Agreement") with John P. Olsen, Chief Executive Officer of DSB. DSB is the wholly-owned subsidiary bank of Denmark Bancshares, Inc.

Pursuant to the Agreement, Mr. Olsen is entitled to receive a stay bonus in the amount of up to $100,000 ("Stay Bonus"), payable in January 2014, in exchange for his continued employment with DSB. Mr. Olsen will earn $25,000 of his Stay Bonus on January 1 of each year beginning January 1, 2011 through January 1 2014 provided that he continues to be employed by DSB on such date. Termination of Mr. Olsen's employment by DSB without "Cause" or by Mr. Olsen with "Good Reason" (each as defined in the Agreement) shall entitle Mr. Olsen to the entire Stay Bonus.

Also pursuant to the Agreement, Mr. Olsen is restricted from competing with DSB or using any of DSB's "Confidential Information" or "Trade Secrets" (each as defined in the Agreement) during the term of his employment with DSB and for a period of eighteen months thereafter, and from soliciting, recruiting or offering employment to any of DSB's then current employees during the term of his employment with DSB and for a period of twelve months thereafter.

A copy of the plan is furnished as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
