(3) Effective January 12, 2011, Dennis J. Flanagan was appointed President and Chief Executive<br />

Officer of the Bank. During 2010, he served as Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer<br />

and Secretary of the Bank.<br />

Employment Agreements<br />

On February 9, 2010, Dennis J. Flanagan entered into an employment agreement with the<br />

Bank which provided for a two-year term. Upon the expiration of the initial two-year term, the<br />

agreement will automatically renew for successive one-year periods. The employment<br />

agreement provides for a base compensation for Mr. Flanagan of $153,500 per year and provides<br />

that Mr. Flanagan is eligible to participate in the Bank’s bonus program, under which he may<br />

receive a bonus of up to thirty-three percent (33%) of Mr. Flanagan’s then current base salary.<br />

Bonus compensation is based on, among other things, Mr. Flanagan’s performance and the<br />

Bank’s loan and deposit growth and overall profitability. The Personnel and Compensation<br />

Committee of the Bank’s Board of Directors will determine the amount of any such bonuses. In<br />

the event the Bank terminates Mr. Flanagan’s employment agreement without cause, Mr.<br />

Flanagan is entitled to (i) a severance payment equal to the greater of (a) the value of the<br />

remaining time left in the agreement term based on current salary or (b) twelve (12) months’<br />

current salary, plus (ii) a pro-rata share of any annual bonus for the year of termination, (iii) the<br />

pro-rata value of all employee-related benefits and the automobile allowance calculated on the<br />

same basis as the severance payment and (iv) payment for any accrued yet unused vacation time.<br />

In addition, all unvested stock options previously awarded shall fully vest and be immediately<br />

exercisable. In the event that Mr. Flanagan’s duties and responsibilities or his total annual<br />

compensation and/or benefits are substantially diminished in connection with a change of control<br />

of the Bank (as such term is defined in the agreement), Mr. Flanagan will have the option to<br />

terminate the employment agreement and receive the severance payments described above for a<br />

period of eighteen (18) months.<br />

On January 7, 2008, Mr. Thomas Sannelli entered into a change of control agreement<br />

with the Bank for a one-year term. The term of the agreement is to continue in full force and<br />

effect for one year so long as Mr. Sannelli is employed by the Bank. In the event the Bank<br />

terminates Mr. Sannelli without cause in connection with a change in control of the Bank (as<br />

such term is defined in the agreement), he will be entitled to a severance payment in an amount<br />

equal to (i) his monthly salary then in effect multiplied by twelve, plus (ii) an amount equal to<br />

the largest annual cash bonus payment made to him for services provided in any of the three<br />

years ended December 31 of the year preceding the year in which the change of control event<br />

occurs, plus (iii) an amount equal to the product of the cash equivalent of the monthly benefits<br />

provided to him by the Bank at the time of the change of control event multiplied by twelve.<br />

During the agreement term and for a period of six months following termination by Mr. Sannelli<br />

of the change of control agreement for any reason, he may not commence employment with or<br />

render service to any other bank or banking institution within the state of New Jersey.<br />

Director Compensation<br />

In 2010 the Board of Directors, excluding employee directors, were paid fees for<br />

attending board and committee meetings. Payment of such fees was in the form of newly-issued<br />

shares of the Bank’s Common Stock, as previously approved by the stockholders. For all of<br />
