Determination of Adjusted Closing Book Value.

(a) At least two (2) Business Days (as defined below) prior to the Closing Date, Sellers will deliver to Purchaser a statement (the “Estimated Closing Statement”) setting forth Sellers’ good faith estimate (the “Estimated Adjusted Closing Book Value”) of the Adjusted Closing Book Value, which shall be an amount equal to the product of (x) the Savings Bank’s Equity (as defined below) on the Closing Date minus $350,000 times (y) 0.90, calculated after full accrual for all fees and expenses incurred by Sellers in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including without limitation, (A) employment agreement costs, (B) any consent fees or other economic concessions in connection with the assignment of leases to Purchaser pursuant to Section 1.02(a)(i) in excess of $5,000 in the aggregate, and (C) electronic data processing and systems-related contract termination fees payable to FSI (as defined in Section 1.06(g)) and other existing vendors of the Savings Bank, to the extent indicated on Schedule 1.03(b), and before any payment or accrual of Advisor Fees paid by Sellers at Closing pursuant to Section 1.04 of this Agreement (the “Adjusted Closing Book Value”). For the purposes of preparing the Estimated Adjusted Closing Book Value, Sellers will use the Savings Bank’s Equity as of the month-end immediately prior to the Closing Date. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) no Excluded Asset shall increase the Adjusted Closing Book Value, including without limitation any amount attributable to the Metro North Litigation, and (ii) all costs relating to the Fiserv Conversion (as defined in Section 1.06(g)) shall be borne by the Purchaser and shall not decrease the Adjusted Closing Book Value. “Equity” means the Savings Bank’s equity as would be shown on the Savings Bank’s Thrift Financial Report (“TFR”) line SC80 (or line RCONG 105 of the Savings Bank’s Call Report) if prepared as of the Closing Date, calculated in accordance with the applicable regulations of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, subject to the adjustments described above. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Business Day” shall mean any day on which banking institutions in New York, New York are customarily open for the purpose of transacting business.

(b) Within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, Purchaser will deliver to Sellers a certificate (the “Closing Statement”), executed by Purchaser, setting forth Purchaser’s calculation of Adjusted Closing Book Value. In calculating the Adjusted Closing Book Value, Purchaser and Sellers shall use the same factors and methodology in calculating the allowance for loan losses as used by the Savings Bank in calculating the allowance as set forth in the Savings Bank’s TFR as of September 30, 2011, and shall otherwise follow the methodology described on Schedule 1.03(b) hereto, which sets forth an illustrative example of the calculation of the Adjusted Closing Book Value as if the closing were to occur as of September 30, 2011.

(c) If Sellers deliver written notice (the “Disputed Items Notice”) to Purchaser within fifteen (15) days after the delivery of the Closing Statement, stating that Sellers object to any items on the Closing Statement, specifying the basis for such objection in reasonable detail and setting forth Sellers’ proposed modifications to the Closing Statement, Sellers and Purchaser will attempt to resolve and finally determine and agree upon the Adjusted Closing Book Value as promptly as practicable.

(d) If Sellers and Purchaser are unable to agree upon the Adjusted Closing Book Value within ten (10) days after delivery of the Disputed Items Notice, Sellers and Purchaser will refer the matter to an independent accounting firm mutually selected by Purchaser and Sellers, to resolve the disputed items specified in the Disputed Items Notice. The accounting firm will (i) resolve and address only the disputed items specified in the Disputed Items Notice and (ii) determine the Adjusted Closing Book Value, as modified only by the resolution of such disputed items. Such determination shall be final and binding on the Parties. The fees, costs and expenses of the accounting firm so selected will be borne by the Party whose positions generally did not prevail in such determination, or if the accounting firm determines that neither Party could be fairly found to be the prevailing Party, then such fees, costs and expenses will be borne fifty percent (50%) by Sellers and fifty percent (50%) by Purchaser.

(e) If Sellers do not deliver the Disputed Items Notice to Purchaser within fifteen (15) days after the delivery of the Closing Statement, the calculation of the Adjusted Closing Book Value specified in the Closing Statement will be conclusively presumed to be true and correct in all respects and will be final and binding upon the parties, and Sellers shall be deemed to have agreed with the calculations of the Adjusted Closing Book Value specified in the Closing Statement.

(f) Within ten (10) days after the Adjusted Closing Book Value is finally determined (i) if the Estimated Adjusted Closing Book Value exceeded the Adjusted Closing Book Value, Sellers shall pay to Purchaser an aggregate amount equal to such excess and (ii) if the Estimated Adjusted Closing Book Value was less than the Adjusted Closing Book Value, Purchaser shall pay to Sellers an aggregate amount equal to such difference.

(g) The final determination of the Adjusted Closing Book Value under this Section 1.03 shall not impair any other rights of a Party under this Agreement, including any rights to indemnification.

1.04

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.08, in the event that either Seller receives a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal (defined below) not solicited in violation of this Agreement, prior to obtaining the Saddle River Stockholder Approval, and the Saddle River Board concludes in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel) that (i) it is legally necessary for the proper discharge of its fiduciary duties for the Board to respond to such Acquisition Proposal and (ii) such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a “Superior Proposal” (as defined below), Sellers may furnish or cause to be furnished confidential information or data to the third party making such proposal and participate in negotiations or discussions, provided that prior to providing (or causing to be provided) any confidential information or data permitted to be provided pursuant to this sentence, Sellers shall have entered into a confidentiality agreement with such third party on terms no less restrictive to Sellers than its confidentiality agreement with Purchaser, and provided further that Sellers also shall provide to Purchaser a copy of any such confidential information or data that it is providing to any third party pursuant to this Section 5.08 to the extent not previously provided or made available to Purchaser. Sellers shall promptly advise Purchaser orally and in writing of any Acquisition Proposal, the material terms and conditions of any such Acquisition Proposal (including any changes thereto) and the identity of the person making any such Acquisition Proposal. Sellers shall keep Purchaser fully informed in all material respects of the status and details (including any change to the terms thereof) of any Acquisition Proposal, and keep Purchaser fully informed in all material respects of the status and details of any determination by either Seller’s Board of Directors with respect to any such Acquisition Proposal.

(b) Prior to obtaining the Saddle River Stockholder Approval, and subject to compliance with the terms of Section 5.08(c) hereof, the Saddle River Board may make a Seller Adverse Recommendation Change if the Saddle River Board receives an Acquisition Proposal that has not been withdrawn that the Saddle River Board determines in good faith, after consulting with outside legal counsel and its financial advisors, constitutes a Superior Proposal and if the Saddle River Board determines in good faith, after consulting with outside legal counsel, that the failure to make such Seller Adverse Recommendation Change would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable law; provided, however, that the Sellers shall not enter into a definitive agreement providing for the implementation of a transaction that is a Superior Proposal unless this Agreement shall have been terminated by the Sellers in accordance with Section 7.02.

(c) Saddle River shall not be entitled to effect a Seller Adverse Recommendation Change with respect to a Superior Proposal unless (i) Sellers have provided written notice (a “Seller Adverse Recommendation Notice”) to Purchaser that the Sellers intend to take such action and specifying the terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal, including with such Seller Adverse Recommendation Notice, a copy of any relevant proposed transaction agreements with the party making such Superior Proposal and other material documents, (ii) during the five (5) Business Day period following Purchaser’s receipt of the Seller Adverse Recommendation Notice, the Sellers shall, and shall cause their financial and legal advisors to, negotiate with Purchaser in good faith (to the extent Purchaser desires to negotiate) to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that such Superior Proposal ceases to constitute a Superior Proposal and (iii) following the end of such five (5) Business Day period, the Saddle River Board shall have determined in good faith, taking into account any changes to the terms of this Agreement proposed by Purchaser to the Sellers in response to the Seller Adverse Recommendation Notice or otherwise, that the Superior Proposal giving rise to the Seller Adverse Recommendation Notice continues to constitute a Superior Proposal. Any amendment to the consideration to be paid in connection with the Superior Proposal or any other material amendment of such Superior Proposal shall require a new Seller Adverse Recommendation Notice and the Sellers shall be required to comply again with the requirements of this Section 5.08(c).

The term “Acquisition Proposal” shall mean any proposal or offer, from any person other than Purchaser, for any of the following: (a) a merger or consolidation, or any similar transaction of any company with either Seller, (b) a purchase, lease or other acquisition of all or substantially all the assets or deposits of either Seller, (c) a purchase or other acquisition of “beneficial ownership” by any “person” or “group” (as such terms are defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) (including by way of merger, consolidation, share exchange, or otherwise) that would cause such person or group to become the beneficial owner of securities representing 50% or more of the voting power of either Seller, or (d) a tender or exchange offer to acquire securities representing 50% or more of the voting power of either Seller. “Superior Proposal” means an Acquisition Proposal that the Board of Directors of Saddle River reasonably determines to be (i) more favorable to the stockholders of Saddle River from a financial point of view than the purchase of assets and assumption of liabilities contemplated hereby (taking into account all the terms and conditions of such proposal and this Agreement (including any changes to the financial terms of this Agreement proposed by Purchaser in response to such offer or otherwise)) and (ii) reasonably capable of being completed, taking into account all financial, legal, regulatory and other aspects of such proposal.

5.09

Designated Accounts

Sellers shall use their reasonable best efforts to resolve all claims, endorsement discrepancies or other errors related to the Designated Accounts. Sellers shall maintain a hold on the deposits in such accounts up to the maximum potential Liability relating to such items pending their resolution.

5.10

No Distributions

From the Closing Date until the final determination of Adjusted Closing Book Value pursuant to Section 1.03 of this Agreement, Saddle River shall not pay any dividend or make any distribution to the holders of its capital stock, or redeem or repurchase any shares of its capital stock using the proceeds of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

5.11

Sellers Insurance Proceeds; Maintenance of Policies

From the date of this Agreement until the Closing Date, if material damage to or destruction of the Leased Premises or the leasehold improvements thereto has occurred which have not been restored, repaired or otherwise cured by the Closing Date, all insurance proceeds received by Sellers with respect to such damage and not already used to restore such property shall be part of the Assets purchased hereby. Prior to the Closing Date, Sellers shall provide for the addition of Purchaser as an additional named insured under the Sellers Policies covering liability, property and casualty risks, from and after the Closing Date with respect to claims arising from pre-Closing Date occurrences. Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain their current level of director and officer insurance from and after the Closing Date and until the applicable statute of limitations for pre-Closing Date occurrences provided, however that if Sellers do not continue to maintain such insurance, Sellers will purchase a three-year “tail” policy providing substantively equivalent coverage, as permitted pursuant to the terms of the existing director and officer insurance policy of Sellers.

5.12

Confidentiality

From and after the date of this Agreement, subject to the provisions of Section 5.08, Sellers shall not and shall cause its Affiliates and their respective officers, and directors not to, directly or indirectly, disclose, reveal, divulge or communicate to any person other than authorized officers, directors and employees of Purchaser or use or otherwise exploit for its own benefit or for the benefit of anyone other than the Purchaser, any Confidential Information (as defined below). The Sellers and their Affiliates shall not have any obligation to keep confidential any Confidential Information if and to the extent disclosure thereof is specifically required by law; provided, however, that in the event disclosure is required by applicable law after the Closing Date, the Sellers shall, to the extent reasonably possible, provide Purchaser with prompt notice of such requirement prior to making any disclosure so that Purchaser may seek an appropriate protective order. “Confidential Information” means any information with respect to the business of the Savings Bank, including methods of operation, customers, customer lists, products, prices, fees, costs, technology, marketing methods, plans, personnel, suppliers, competitors, markets or other specialized information or proprietary matters. Confidential Information does not include, and there shall be no obligation hereunder with respect to, information that (i) is required to be provided by the Sellers to any Governmental Entity, (ii) is generally available to the public on the date of this Agreement, or (iii) becomes generally available to the public after the date of this Agreement, other than as a result of a disclosure not otherwise permissible hereunder.

In the event of termination pursuant to Section 7.01, written notice thereof shall be given by the terminating Party to the other Parties, and this Agreement shall terminate immediately upon receipt of such notice and become void and have no effect, and no Party shall have any liability or further obligation to any other Party hereunder, except (i) Sections 7.02, 7.03 and Article X shall survive any such termination, and (ii) termination will not relieve a breaching Party from liability for any willful breach of this Agreement giving rise to such termination.

7.03

Termination Fee

(a) In the event that:

(i) (A) a Superior Proposal shall have been made known to the Sellers or shall have been made directly to Saddle River’s stockholders generally or any Person shall have publicly announced an intention (whether or not conditional or withdrawn) to make a Superior Proposal, (B) thereafter this Agreement is terminated by the Purchaser pursuant to Section 7.01(b) and (C) the Sellers enter into a definitive agreement with respect to, or consummate, a transaction contemplated by any Acquisition Proposal within twelve (12) months after such termination; or

(ii) this Agreement is terminated by Sellers or Purchaser pursuant to Section 7.01(d); or

(iii) this Agreement is terminated by Sellers pursuant to Section 7.01(e); or

(iv) this Agreement is terminated by Purchaser pursuant to Section 7.01(f),

then in any such event the Sellers shall pay to the Purchasers a termination fee in cash equal to $440,000 (the “Termination Fee”).

(b) The Termination Fee required to be paid to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 7.03 shall be paid promptly following the earlier of the execution of a definitive agreement with respect to, or the consummation of, any transaction contemplated by a Superior Proposal (for purposes of this paragraph, “promptly” shall mean not later than two (2) Business Days after delivery to the Sellers of notice of demand for payment); provided, however, that any payment required to be made in connection with a termination of this Agreement by Sellers pursuant to Section 7.01(d) or pursuant to Section 7.01(e) shall be made to Purchaser prior to or contemporaneously with the termination of this Agreement by the Sellers pursuant to such section (and any purported termination by Sellers pursuant to Section 7.01(d) or Section 7.01(e) shall be void and of no force or effect unless the Sellers shall have made such payment) and provided, further, that any Termination Fee payable in connection with a termination of this Agreement by Purchaser pursuant to Section 7.01(f) shall be paid to Purchaser within two (2) Business Days of such termination. All such payments shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account to be designated by Purchaser.

(c) Each of the Parties hereto acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 7.03 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated hereby, and that without these agreements, the Purchaser would not enter into this Agreement. Accordingly, if the Sellers fail to timely pay any amount due pursuant to this Section 7.03 and, in order to obtain the payment the Purchaser commences a suit which results in a judgment against either Seller for the payment set forth in this Section 7.03, such payment shall accrue interest for the period commencing on the date such amount became past due until the date such payment is made at the annual rate of eight percent (8%). In addition, the Sellers shall pay the Purchaser its reasonable and documented costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) in connection with such suit.

ARTICLE VIII

TAX MATTERS

8.01

Other Tax Matters

(a) Wage Reporting. Purchaser and Sellers agree to utilize, or cause their respective Affiliates to utilize, the standard procedure set forth in Revenue Procedure 2004-53 with respect to wage reporting.

(b) Purchase Price Allocation. As soon as practicable after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to Sellers copies of Form 8594 and any required exhibits thereto (the “Asset Acquisition Statement”) allocating the purchase price (plus Assumed Liabilities, to the extent properly taken into account under Section 1060 of the Code) among the Assets and Assumed Liabilities. The Asset Acquisition Statement shall be prepared in accordance with Section 1060 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”). Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to Sellers from time to time revised copies of the Asset Acquisition Statement (the “Revised Statements”) so as to report any matters on the Asset Acquisition Statement that need updating (including purchase price adjustments, if any). The purchase price (plus Assumed Liabilities, to the extent properly taken into account under Section 1060 of the Code) paid by Purchaser for the Assets and Assumed Liabilities shall be allocated in accordance with the Asset Acquisition Statement or, if applicable, the last Revised Statements, provided by Purchaser to Sellers, and all Tax Returns and reports filed by Purchaser and Sellers shall be prepared consistently with such allocations.

(c) Prorations. Sellers shall bear all property and ad valorem Tax liabilities with respect to the Assets and Assumed Liabilities if the lien or assessment date arises prior to the Closing Date, irrespective of the reporting and payment dates of such Taxes. All other real property Taxes, personal property Taxes, or ad valorem obligations and similar recurring Taxes and fees on the Assets and Assumed Liabilities for taxable periods beginning before, and ending after, the Closing Date, shall be prorated between Purchaser and Sellers based on the number of days of such taxable period up to and including the Closing Date (which shall be for the account of Sellers) and the number of days of such taxable period after the Closing Date (which shall be for the account of Purchaser). With respect to Taxes described in this Section 8.01(c), Sellers shall timely file all Tax Returns due before the Closing Date with respect to such Taxes and Purchaser shall prepare and timely file all Tax Returns due after the Closing Date with respect to such Taxes. If one Party remits to the appropriate Tax Authority payment for Taxes which are subject to proration under this Section 8.01(c) and such payment includes the other Party’s share of such Taxes, such other Party shall reimburse the remitting Party for its share of such Taxes within five (5) days of notice of payment.

(d) Cooperation on Tax Matters. Purchaser and Sellers shall furnish or cause to be furnished to each other, as promptly as practicable, such information and assistance relating to the Assets and the Assumed Liabilities as is reasonably necessary for the preparation and filing of any Tax Return, claim for refund or other required or optional filings relating to Tax matters, for the preparation for any Tax audit, for the preparation for any Tax protest, or for the prosecution or defense of any suit or other proceeding relating to Tax matters.

(e) Transfer Taxes. Sellers and Purchaser shall (a) share equally any and all liabilities for any excise, sales, use, stamp, documentary, filing, recording, transfer, gross receipts, registration, duty, or similar fees or taxes or governmental charges (together with any interest or penalty, addition to tax or additional amount imposed) as levied by any Taxing Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, “Transfer Taxes”), regardless of the person liable for such Transfer Taxes under applicable law and (b) timely file or caused to be filed all necessary documents (including all Tax Returns) with respect to Transfer Taxes.

(f) Tax Clearance Certificates. Purchaser and Sellers shall notify all Taxing Authorities, to the extent required by applicable law, of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in the form and manner required by such Taxing Authorities if the failure to make such notifications or receive any available tax clearance certificate (“Tax Clearance Certificate”) could subject Sellers or Purchaser to any Taxes. If, in respect to any notification or application for Tax Clearance Certificates made pursuant to this Section 8.01(f), any Taxing Authority asserts that either Sellers or Purchaser is liable for any Tax, such Party shall promptly pay any and all such amounts and shall provide evidence satisfactory to the other Parties that such liabilities have been paid in full or otherwise satisfied.

ARTICLE IX

INDEMNIFICATION

9.01

Indemnification by Sellers

From and after the Closing Date, Sellers shall, jointly and severally, indemnify, hold harmless and defend Purchaser and its officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives and Affiliates (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnified Parties”) from and against all damages, losses, obligations and liabilities, including reasonable legal fees and expenses (“Losses”), directly or indirectly arising out of (i) any actions, suits, proceedings or investigations commenced prior to the Closing Date relating to operations at the Savings Bank, (ii) any actions, suits, proceedings or investigations commenced on or after the Closing Date but which relate to operations at the Savings Bank prior to the Closing Date, to the extent not specifically assumed or subject to an indemnity by Purchaser under the terms of this Agreement or (iii) the Excluded Liabilities. Sellers agree further to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Purchaser against all Losses from any breach of any covenant or agreement, representation or warranty made by Sellers in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered to Purchaser hereunder. Purchaser will give Sellers written notice of a threatened or pending claim within thirty (30) calendar days (except in the case where Purchaser’s first notice is its receipt of a complaint in which case such time for giving notice shall be fifteen (15) calendar days of its learning about such threatened or pending claim), together with a statement of facts known to it regarding such threatened or pending claim; provided, however, that failure to so notify Sellers shall not preclude Purchaser from any indemnification that it may claim in accordance with this Article IX except to the extent that Sellers are materially prejudiced thereby. Sellers will then have twenty (20) calendar days from the date they received such notice to investigate the threatened or pending claim and determine whether they will elect to assume the defense of the matter involving such threatened or pending claim. If they so elect, Sellers will be entitled to conduct the defense with counsel of their choice reasonably acceptable to Purchaser, and shall be given Purchaser’s full cooperation and assistance in maintaining said defense. Purchaser may participate, at its own expense, in the defense of such claim; provided, however, that Purchaser shall be entitled to participate in such defense with separate counsel at Sellers’ expense if (A) so requested by Sellers to participate, (B) if Purchaser determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a proceeding may adversely affect it other than as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to full indemnification under this Agreement, (C) the claim is a criminal proceeding or (D) in the opinion of counsel to Purchaser, a conflict or potential conflict exists between the Sellers and Purchaser that would make such separate representation advisable. Sellers must acknowledge in writing to the Purchaser that they are obligated to indemnify the Purchaser with respect to such claim to the extent provided hereunder, and must maintain the defense actively and diligently in order to preserve their rights to conduct the defense. Sellers shall not be liable for any amounts in settlement of a claim or action as described above if such settlement is effected without Sellers’ written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Sellers must satisfy any indemnification obligations hereunder by payment directly to Purchaser in cash. The representations, covenants and obligations of Sellers, and the rights and remedies that may be exercised by Purchaser based on such representations, covenants and obligations, will not be limited or affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing, with respect to, the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with any such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation. It is understood that the obligations of Sellers under this paragraph shall survive the Closing Date.

Sellers shall have no indemnification obligation to Purchaser for breaches of the representations and warranties of Sellers set forth in Article II of this Agreement (other than with respect to Fundamental Representations (as defined in Section 10.05), as to which this sentence shall not apply) unless and until the total amount of all Sellers’ indemnification obligations shall exceed Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000), and then only to the extent of the amount of such excess. The aggregate indemnification liability of Sellers for breaches of the representations and warranties of Sellers set forth in Article II of this Agreement (other than with respect to Fundamental Representations and acts or omissions constituting fraud or intentional misconduct, as to which this sentence shall not apply) shall not exceed Five Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($550,000).

For purposes of determining the failure of any representations or warranties to be true and correct, the breach of any covenants or agreements, and calculating Losses hereunder any materiality qualifications in the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements shall be disregarded.

9.02

Indemnification by Purchaser

From and after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend Sellers and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives and Affiliates (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) from and against all Losses which Sellers may receive, suffer or incur in connection with operations and transactions occurring on or after the Closing Date involving the Savings Bank or the Assets or Assumed Liabilities, except as otherwise specifically provided for in this Agreement. Purchaser agrees further to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Sellers against all Losses resulting from any breach of any covenant, agreement, representation or warranty made by Purchaser and its officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives and Affiliates in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered to Sellers hereunder. Sellers will give Purchaser written notice of a threatened or pending claim within thirty (30) calendar days (except in the case where Sellers’ first notice is its receipt of a complaint, in which case such time for giving notice shall be fifteen (15) calendar days after its learning about such threatened or pending claim), together with a statement of facts known to it regarding such threatened or pending claim; provided, however, that failure to so notify Purchaser shall not preclude Sellers from any indemnification that they may claim in accordance with this Article IX except to the extent that Purchaser is materially prejudiced thereby. Purchaser will then have twenty (20) calendar days from the date it receives such notice to investigate the threatened or pending claim to determine whether it will elect to assume the defense of the matter involving such threatened or pending claim. If it does so elect, Purchaser will be given Sellers’ full cooperation and assistance in maintaining such defense. Sellers may participate, at their own expense, in the defense of such claim; provided, however, that Sellers shall be entitled to participate in such defense with separate counsel at Purchaser’s expense if (A) so requested by Purchaser to participate, (B) if Sellers determine in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a proceeding may adversely affect them other than as a result of monetary damages for which they would be entitled to full indemnification under this Agreement, (C) the claim is a criminal proceeding or (D) in the opinion of counsel to Sellers, a conflict or potential conflict exists between the Sellers and Purchaser that would make such separate representation advisable. Purchaser must acknowledge in writing to the Sellers that it is obligated to indemnify the Sellers with respect to such claim to the extent provided hereunder, and must maintain the defense actively and diligently in order to preserve its rights to conduct the defense. Purchaser shall not be liable for any amounts in settlement of a claim or action as described above if such settlement is effected without Purchaser’s written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Purchaser must satisfy any indemnification obligations hereunder by payment directly to Sellers in cash. The representations, covenants and obligations of Purchaser, and the rights and remedies that may be exercised by Sellers based on such representations, covenants and obligations, will not be limited or affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing, with respect to, the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with any such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation. It is understood that the obligations of Purchaser under this paragraph shall survive the Closing Date.

9.03

Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments

Purchaser and Sellers shall treat indemnification payments made under this Article IX as adjustments of the Purchase Price for all federal and state income tax purposes to the extent permitted under applicable Tax law.

9.04

Exclusive Remedy

Except as provided in Section 10.13, the Parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy from and after the Closing Date with respect to any and all claims for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article IX. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other Parties hereto and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives and Affiliates arising under or based upon any law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article IX.

ARTICLE X

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

10.01

Entire Agreement

This Agreement, the exhibits and schedules hereto and the Non Disclosure Agreement dated as of October 28, 2011, by and between Purchaser and the Savings Bank, shall constitute the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersede all prior negotiations, understandings and agreements, whether written or oral.

10.02

Exhibit B

FIRPTA Certificate

Section 1445 of the Internal Revenue Code provides that a transferee of a U.S. real property interest must withhold tax if the transferor is a foreign person. For U.S. tax purposes (including Section 1445), the owner of a disregarded entity (which has legal title to a U.S. real property interest under local law) will be the transferor of the property and not the disregarded entity. To inform Union Center National Bank that withholding of tax is not required upon the disposition of a U.S. real property interest by Saddle River Valley Bancorp, a savings and loan holding company (“Saddle River”) and Saddle River Valley Bank, a federally chartered savings association and a wholly owned subsidiary of Saddle River (the “Savings Bank”, and collectively with Saddle River the “Sellers”), the undersigned hereby certifies the following on behalf of the Sellers:

1. Neither Seller is a foreign corporation, foreign partnership, foreign trust, or foreign estate (as those terms are defined in the Internal Revenue Code and Income Tax Regulations);

2. Neither Seller is a disregarded entity as defined in Section 1.1445-2(b)(2)(iii);

3. Saddle River’s U.S. employer identification number is [_____________];

4. Savings Bank’s U.S. employer identification number is [____________]; and

4. Sellers’ office address is 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxx 00000.

Sellers understand that this certification may be disclosed to the Internal Revenue Service by Union Center National Bank and that any false statement contained herein could be punished by fine, imprisonment, or both.

Under penalties of perjury each of the undersigned declare that they have examined this certification and to the best of their knowledge and belief it is true, correct and complete, and each of the undersigned further declares that he or she has the authority to sign this document on behalf of the Sellers.

INSTRUMENT OF ASSUMPTION OF CERTAIN LIABILITIES

INSTRUMENT OF ASSUMPTION OF CERTAIN LIABILITIES (this “Instrument of Assumption”) made as of [__], 2012, by Union Center National Bank (the “Purchaser”), a federally chartered commercial bank having its principal office at 0000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxx 00000, in favor of Saddle River Valley Bancorp, a savings and loan holding company (“Saddle River”) and Saddle River Valley Bank, a federally chartered savings association and a wholly owned subsidiary of Saddle River (the “Savings Bank”, and collectively with Saddle River the “Sellers”), each having its principal office at 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxx 00000, pursuant to the Bank Purchase and Assumption Agreement dated as of February 1, 2012 (the “Agreement”), by and between the Purchaser and the Sellers.

In partial consideration of the sale, conveyance, assignment, transfer and delivery by the Sellers to the Purchaser, pursuant to the Agreement, of all of the Sellers’ right, title and interest in and to the Assets (such capitalized term and, except as otherwise defined herein, all other capitalized terms used herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Agreement), the Sellers hereby assign to the Purchaser, and Purchaser does hereby assume from the Sellers the Assumed Liabilities (which include the Deposit Liabilities), and the Purchaser does hereby agree to pay, honor, perform and discharge all obligations with respect to, and shall be solely and exclusively liable for, the Assumed Liabilities.

In accordance with the Agreement, the Assumed Liabilities shall not include and the Purchaser is not assuming and shall not be deemed to have assumed any of, the Excluded Liabilities, and, accordingly, the Purchaser has not agreed to assume or pay, and shall not assume or be deemed to have assumed, any liability or obligation, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, of the Sellers or any other person or entity, the assumption of which is not expressly provided for in the Agreement.

The assumption by the Purchaser of the Assumed Liabilities shall not be construed to defeat, impair or limit in any way any rights or remedies of the Purchaser to contest or dispute the validity or amount thereof.

For the consideration aforesaid, the Purchaser, for itself and its successors and assigns, has covenanted, and by this Instrument of Assumption does covenant, with the Sellers and their successors and assigns that the Purchaser and its successors and assigns will from time to time do, execute and deliver, or will cause to be done, executed and delivered, all such further acts and instruments which the Sellers may reasonably request in order to more fully effectuate the assumption of liabilities provided for herein.

This Instrument of Assumption will be enforceable against the successors and assigns of the Purchaser and will inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Sellers.

This Instrument of Assumption is given pursuant to the Agreement, and, except as herein otherwise provided, the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities hereunder is made subject to the terms and provisions of the Agreement including, without limitation, Article X.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Instrument of Assumption has been duly executed and delivered by the duly authorized officer of the Purchaser as of the date first set forth above.
