This RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made this _____ day of
___________, 20___ (the “Award Date”) between 1ST CONSTITUTION BANCORP, a New
Jersey corporation (the “Company”), and ________________ (the “Participant”).
Capitalized terms used in this Agreement but not defined upon their first usage
shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Company’s 2015 Directors Stock
Plan, as it may be amended from time to time (the “Plan”).

1.    Grant of Restricted Stock. The Company hereby grants to the Participant
_____ restricted shares of the Company’s common stock, no par value (the
“Restricted Stock”), pursuant to the Plan, subject to the terms and conditions
of the Plan and this Agreement.

2.    Incorporation by Reference of the Plan. The Plan is hereby incorporated by
reference into this Agreement. The Participant hereby acknowledges receipt of a
copy of the Plan and represents and warrants to the Company that the Participant
has read and understands the terms and conditions of the Plan. The execution of
this Agreement by the Participant constitutes the Participant’s acceptance of
and agreement to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement.

3.    Vesting of Restricted Stock. Unless the Board provides for earlier
vesting, and subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Restricted Stock shall
vest in accordance with the following schedule:

Percentage of Shares            Scheduled Vesting Date

50%                First Anniversary of Award Date
50%                Second Anniversary of Award Date
    
4.    Termination of Service.

(a)    Termination of Service Upon Death or Disability. Upon a Participant no
longer serving as a director on the Board and on the board of directors of any
Subsidiary (a “Subsidiary Board”) (such event being a “Termination Event”), as
applicable, by reason of death or Disability of the Participant, all unvested
shares of Restricted Stock shall become fully vested. For this purpose,
“Disability” means the Participant is determined to be unable to engage in any
substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or
mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or can be expected to
last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months, as determined
in the sole discretion of the Board, and the Participant resigns or is removed
as a director as a result of the Disability.

(b) Termination of Service for Other Reasons. All unvested shares of Restricted
Stock shall be forfeited to and reacquired by the Company at no cost to the
Company, automatically and immediately, upon a Termination Event with respect to
such Participant if the Termination Event is as a result of: (i) non-election by
the

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

stockholder or stockholders of the Company and such Subsidiary, as applicable;
(ii) failure of the Board and/or a Subsidiary Board, as applicable, to nominate
the Participant for re-election at an annual meeting of stockholders of the
Company or such Subsidiary, as applicable; or (iii) the Participant’s
resignation, retirement or agreement not to stand for re-election at the request
of the Board and/or a Subsidiary Board, as applicable, where the Participant is
otherwise willing to continue serving in such capacity, including, but not
limited to (A) inability of the Participant to fulfill the duties of a director
due to inability to attend meetings for health reasons, (B) as a result of a
request of a regulatory agency that the Participant cease serving on the Board
and/or a Subsidiary Board, as applicable, subject to applicable law, and (C) a
determination of the Board and/or a Subsidiary Board, as applicable, that
continued service would create a conflict of interest for the Participant.

(c)    Forfeiture. Upon termination of the Participant’s service on the Board or
a Subsidiary Board, as applicable, for any reason (including, without
limitation, the events set forth above in Section 4(b)), other than death or
Disability, or as provided in Section 9, all unvested shares of Restricted Stock
will be forfeited to and reacquired by the Company at no cost to the Company,
automatically and immediately.

(d) Service on Board and a Subsidiary Board. For purposes of clarity, if the
Participant serves on both the Board and a Subsidiary Board, as applicable, the
Participant’s unvested Restricted Stock shall not vest under Section 4(a) nor
shall they be forfeited under Sections 4(b) or (c) unless and until the
Participant is no longer serving as a director on the Board or any such
Subsidiary Board.

5.    Rights as a Shareholder.

(a)The Participant shall have all of the rights of a shareholder of the Company,
including the right to vote the Restricted Stock and the right to receive cash
dividends thereon; provided, however, that dividends payable as distributions in
full or partial liquidation of the Company or as the result of a merger or any
other corporate reorganization shall not be distributed until such time as the
Restricted Stock as to which such distribution applies vests.
  
(b)Stock dividends paid on the Restricted Stock shall be deferred until the
restrictions with respect to the shares upon which such dividends were paid
expire or are canceled, at which time the Company shall evidence the delivery to
the Participant of all such dividends without interest. If the Participant
forfeits any Shares awarded hereunder, such Shares and any stock dividends with
respect thereto shall automatically be forfeited and revert to the Company
(without any payment by the Company to the Participant).

6.    Issuance of Stock. A record of the Restricted Stock awarded hereunder
shall be evidenced by the Company in restricted book entry accounts maintained
for the Participant with the Company’s transfer agent, or such other
administrator designated by the Board, and registered in the Participant’s name.
The Restricted Stock shall be subject to such stop-transfer orders and other
terms deemed appropriate by the Board to reflect the restrictions applicable to
the Restricted Stock, until all the restrictions specifically set forth in this
Agreement and the Plan with respect to the Restricted Stock shall expire or be
canceled. Upon the lapse of restrictions relating to any Restricted Stock, the
Company shall remove the notations on any such shares of Restricted Stock issued
in book-entry form.

7.    Limits on Transferability. During the period of time that any shares of
Restricted Stock are unvested, such unvested shares shall not be sold, assigned,
transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of, other than by will
or the laws of descent and distribution, or to a beneficiary upon the death of
the Participant, or as otherwise permitted by the Board.

entity, more than 50% of the combined voting power of the voting securities of
the Company or such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger
or consolidation);

(iv)the consummation of a sale or disposition by the Company of all or
substantially all of the Company’s assets; or

(v)upon approval by the shareholders of the Company of a plan of complete
liquidation or dissolution of the Company.
