SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN 

ARTICLE I 
 Name and
Purpose 
 1.1 This instrument and the supplemental retirement plan embodied herein, as from time to time amended, shall be known as the
“Blue Hills Bank Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan.” The Plan was originally established effective July 1, 2011 and has been amended and restated effective as of December 31, 2013. 

1.2 The Plan is established and maintained for the purpose of providing the retirement benefits described in Article V to eligible Participant
employees of the Bank, Mid-Tier and MHC. 
 1.3 For purposes of ERISA, the Plan is intended to be unfunded, and maintained by the Bank
primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees within the meaning of Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of ERISA.

business day of each Plan Year, plus 200 basis points. Effective January 1, 2014, Participants may elect to invest their Annual Benefit Amounts allocated to their Account and any earnings thereon among investment options offered by the Plan
Administrator from time to time, pursuant to procedures adopted by the Plan Administrator. In the event Mid-Tier issues stock to the public or MHC converts to a fully converted stock holding company, as the Company, the Plan Administrator, in its
sole discretion, may offer shares of Employer Common Stock as an investment option in the Plan, subject to such terms and conditions as specified by the Plan Administrator. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, once an amount has been
invested in Employer Common Stock, it must remain invested in Employer Common Stock (i.e., the investment election is irrevocable) and that the portion of the Participant’s Account that is invested in Employer Common Stock shall be distributed
to the Participant in the form of Employer Common Stock (not in cash).

(i) conduct by the Participant constituting a material act of willful misconduct in connection with the performance of his

(ii) the commission by the Participant of any felony or a misdemeanor involving moral turpitude, deceit, dishonesty or fraud,
or any conduct by the Participant that would reasonably be expected to result in material injury to the Employers if he were retained in his position; or 

(iii) continued, willful and deliberate non-performance by the Participant of his duties to the Employers (other than by reason
of the Participant’s physical or mental illness, incapacity or disability) which has continued for more than 30 days following written notice of such non-performance from the Chief Executive Officer of the Bank; or 

(iv) a violation by the Participant of the Employers’ employment policies that has continued following written notice of
such violation from the Chief Executive Officer; or 
 (v) willful failure to cooperate with a bona fide internal

of trustees of MHC or the board of directors of the Mid-Tier, Bank or the Company, as the case may be, immediately prior to the consummation of such merger, consolidation or other business combination; or

in whole or in part, or as otherwise required by applicable law.

In no event shall any benefit be payable to a Participant under the Plan if the Participant (i) has a Separation from Service due to termination for

ARTICLE V 
 Payment of
Benefit 
 5.1 Time and Form of Benefit. 

Subject to the Participant signing a general release of claims in favor of the Employers and related persons and entities in a form and manner satisfactory to

Distribution Form, equal to the Participant’s Vested Account Balance as of the date of the Participant’s Separation from Service. Such distribution shall be made within 60 days after the date of the Participant’s Separation from
Service with the Employers, provided however, if such 60 day period spans two calendar years, the payment shall commence in the second calendar year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant may elect to defer the date of payment, without
interest, provided, however, that such election and deferral conforms with the provisions of the Plan and with any applicable requirements of Section 409A of the Code (and any other applicable tax law regarding deferral of income or avoidance

 7 








 5.2 Disability. 

Subject to the Participant signing a general release of claims in favor of the Employers and related persons and entities in a form and manner satisfactory to
the Employers and the expiration of the seven-day revocation period for such release, in the event a Participant’s Separation from Service occurs on account of the Participant’s Disability, the Participant’s shall be entitled to a
benefit, to be distributed to the Participant in the Normal Distribution Form, equal to the Participant’s Vested Account Balance as of the date of the Participant’s Disability. Such distribution shall be made within 60 days after the date
of the Participant’s Disability. 
 5.3 Death. 

In the event that a Participant dies prior to Separation from Service, the Participant’s Vested Account Balance as of the date of the Participant’s
death shall be distributed to the Participant’s designated beneficiary or, in the absence of a surviving beneficiary, to the Participant’s estate, in the Normal Distribution Form within 60 days after the Participant’s date of death.
In the event that the Participant dies after Separation from Service but prior to distribution in full of the Participant’s Vested Account Balance, the undistributed payment(s) shall be paid to the Participant’s designated beneficiary or,
in the absence of a surviving designated beneficiary (including due to the death of a designated beneficiary prior to payment of the final payment), to the Participant’s estate. 

5.4 Change in Control. 
 Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in Section 5.1, in the event a Terminating Event occurs with respect to a Participant within 24 months after a Change in Control, the Participant’s Account Balance shall be 100% vested, and the Participant shall be
entitled to a benefit, to be distributed in the Normal Distribution Form, equal to the Participant’s Vested Account Balance as of the date of the Terminating Event, increased by an amount equal to two times the Participant’s highest Annual
Benefit Amount in effect at any time within the six months immediately preceding the Change in Control. Such distribution shall be made within 60 days after the Terminating Event. 

5.5 Clawback. 
 Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in the Plan, if the Plan Administrator determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that a Participant has received a benefit under the Plan that is based on materially inaccurate financial statements, reviews, gains,
or any other materially inaccurate criteria used in determining or setting such benefit, the Plan Administrator shall cancel such benefit to the extent attributable to such materially inaccurate financial statements, reviews, gains, or other
materially inaccurate criteria. In the event that any amount has been paid to the Participant with respect to such cancelled benefit (the “Overpayment Amount”), the Plan Administrator, promptly after making such determination, shall send
the Participant a notice of recovery (“Recovery Notice”), specifying the Overpayment Amount. The Participant shall be obligated to repay the Overpayment Amount to the Employers promptly following receipt of such Recovery Notice, in
accordance with the terms specified therein. The Employers, in their sole discretion, may recover all or a part of any Overpayment Amount by setoff of any amount owed to the Participant by the Employers under the Plan or otherwise.

 ARTICLE VI 

Claims and Review Procedures 

6.1 Claims Procedure. 
 A Participant or
beneficiary of a Participant (a “claimant”) who has not received benefits under the Plan that he or she believes should be distributed shall make a claim for such benefits as follows: 

(a) The claimant shall initiate a claim by submitting to the Plan Administrator a written claim for the benefits. If such a
claim relates to the contents of a notice received by the claimant, the claim must be made within 60 days after such notice was received by the claimant. All other claims must be made within 180 days of the date on which the event that caused the
claim to arise occurred. The claim must state with particularity the determination desired by the claimant. 
 (b) The Plan
Administrator shall respond to such claimant within 90 days after receiving the claim. If the Plan Administrator determines that special circumstances require additional time for processing the claim, the Plan Administrator can extend the response
period by an additional 90 days by notifying the claimant in writing, prior to the end of the initial 90-day period that an additional period is required. The notice of extension must set forth the special circumstances and the date by which the
Plan Administrator expects to render its decision. 
 (c) If the Plan Administrator denies part or the entire claim, the Plan
Administrator shall notify the claimant in writing of such denial. The Plan Administrator shall write the notification in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant. The notification shall set forth: 

(i) The specific reasons for the denial; 

(ii) A reference to the specific provisions of the Plan on which the denial is based; 

(iii) A description of any additional information or material necessary for the claimant to perfect the claim and an
explanation of why it is needed; and 
 (iv) An explanation of this Plan’s review procedures and the time limits
applicable to such procedures. 
 6.2 Review Procedure. 

If the Plan Administrator denies part or all of the claim, the claimant shall have the opportunity for a full and fair review by the Plan Administrator of the
denial as follows: 
 (a) To initiate the review, the claimant, within 60 days after receiving the Plan Administrator’s
notice of denial, must file with the Plan Administrator a written request for review. 

  
 9 








 (b) The claimant shall then have the opportunity to submit written comments,
documents, records and other information relating to the claim. The Plan Administrator shall also provide the claimant, upon request, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records and other information relevant to the claimant’s
claim for benefits. 
 (c) In considering the review, the Plan Administrator shall take into account all materials and
information the claimant submits relating to the claim, without regard to whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial benefit determination. 

(d) The Plan Administrator shall respond in writing to such claimant within 60 days after receiving the request for review. If
the Plan Administrator determines that special circumstances require additional time for processing the claim, the Plan Administrator can extend the response period by an additional 60 days by notifying the claimant in writing, prior to the end of
the initial 60-day period, that an additional period is required. The notice of extension must set forth the special circumstances and the date by which the Plan Administrator expects to render its decision. 

(e) The Plan Administrator shall notify the claimant in writing of its decision on review. The Plan Administrator shall write
the notification in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant. The notification shall set forth: 
 (i) The
specific reasons for the denial; 
 (ii) A reference to the specific provisions of this Plan on which the denial is based;
and 
 (iii) A statement that the claimant is entitled to receive, upon request, reasonable access to, and copies of, all
documents, records and other information relevant to the claimant’s claim for benefits. 
 ARTICLE VII 

Funding 
 7.1 General
Obligation of the Employers. 
 The benefits provided under the Plan constitute a mere promise by the Employers to make payments in the future, and the
rights of the Participant hereunder shall be those of a general unsecured creditor of the Employers. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to create a trust of any kind or to render the Employers a fiduciary with respect to the Participant.
The Employers shall not be required to maintain any fund or segregate any amount or in any other way currently fund the future payment of any benefit provided under the Plan, and nothing contained herein shall be construed to give the Participant or
any other person any right to any specific assets of the Employers or of any other person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the 

  
 10 








 
event that the Plan Administrator offers Employer Common Stock as an investment option in the Plan, the Plan Administrator shall segregate such Employer Common Stock and shall hold such Employer
Common Stock in a rabbi trust established for such purpose. This Plan is intended to be, and shall in all events be construed and treated as, a deferred compensation arrangement for a “select group of management and highly compensated
employees,” within the meaning of Title I of ERISA. 
 7.2 Use of Trust, Insurance Policies, Etc. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Employers may, in their sole and absolute discretion, establish a trust to which funds earmarked for payment under the Plan
may be transferred and from which benefits arising hereunder, and subject to the provisions and limitations hereof, may be paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Plan Administrator offers Employer Common Stock as an investment
option in the Plan, the Plan Administrator shall segregate such Employer Common Stock and shall hold such Employer Common Stock in a rabbi trust established for such purpose. Any such trust would contain provisions making it irrevocable by the
Employers unless and until all benefits hereunder which are funded through such trust have been paid or provided for, except in the case of bankruptcy or insolvency of the Employers, in which event benefit payments from the trust would cease and
assets thereof would revert to the Employers or be paid to its creditors. The Employers may, for their corporate purposes, choose to obtain a policy or policies of life insurance on the Participant. The Participant agrees to fully cooperate in
connection with the securing of any such policy or policies or the election of any options thereunder which the Employers may wish and that the Participant will be available for medical examinations if necessary. 

ARTICLE VIII 
 Amendment
and Termination 
 8.1 Amendment. 

The Board shall have the right to amend, alter or modify the Plan at any time and from time to time, in whole or in part; provided, however, that, to the
extent that any amendment, alteration or modification reduces the amount of a Participant’s Account Balance, the Participant’s right to vest in such Account Balance in accordance with the provisions of the Plan or the amount of any benefit
to which the Participant would have a vested entitlement if the Participant terminated employment with the Employers immediately prior to the effective date of such amendment, or changes the form in which such benefit is to be distributed, such
amendment shall not become effective without the consent of such affected Participant(s). 
 8.2 Termination. 

The Board shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate the Plan, in whole or in part, at any time; provided, however, that no such action shall
reduce the amount of a Participant’s Account Balance, the Participant’s right to vest in such Account Balance thereafter in accordance with the provisions of the Plan, or the amount of any benefit to which the Participant would have a
vested entitlement if the Participant terminated employment with the Employers immediately prior to the effective date of such termination. 

  
 11 








 Any acceleration of the payment of such benefits due to Plan termination shall comply with the following and no
payment shall be made if the decision to terminate the Plan or the acceleration of any payment under the Plan is undertaken proximate to a downturn in the financial health of the Employers, in accordance with Treasury Regulations
Section 1.409A-3(j)(ix): 
 (a) all arrangements sponsored by the Employers that would be aggregated with this Plan
under Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(c)(2) if any Participant covered by this Plan was also covered by any of those other arrangements are also terminated; 

(b) no payments other than payments that would be payable under the terms of the arrangement if the termination had not
occurred are made within 12 months of the termination of the arrangement; 
 (c) all payments are made within 24 months of
the termination of the arrangements; and 
 (d) the Employers does not adopt a new arrangement that would be aggregated with
any terminated arrangement under Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(c)(2) if the same Participant participated in both arrangements, at any time within three years following the date of termination of the arrangement. 

ARTICLE IX 

Miscellaneous 
 9.1
Provision for Incapacity. 
 If the Board reasonably deems any individual incapable of receiving benefits by reason of illness, infirmity or
incapacity of any kind, the Employers may make payment of such benefits to any one or more persons or representatives as provided in a written direction received from the affected individual while competent and, in the absence of any such written
direction, to such individual(s) as the Board designates and shall fully discharge the Employers from all obligations or liability under this Plan. 

9.2 Non-assignable Rights. 
 Except as
otherwise provided by the Plan, neither the Participant nor the Participant’s surviving spouse shall have any right to commute, sell, assign, transfer or otherwise convey the right to receive any payments hereunder, which payments and the right
thereto are expressly declared to be non-assignable and non-transferable. 
 9.3 Independence of Plan. 

The benefits payable under the Plan shall be independent of, and in addition to, any employment agreement that may exist from time to time between the
Employers and a Participant, or any compensation payable by the Employers to a Participant other than supplemental retirement benefits, whether as salary, bonus or otherwise. 

  
 12 








 9.4 At-Will Status. 

Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan, but subject to any employment agreement that may exist from time to time between the Employers and a Participant,
each Participant is employed at-will, so that the Participant or the Employers may terminate the Participant’s employment at any time, with or without notice, for any or no reason. 

9.5 Taxes. 
 All payments and benefits
described in the Plan shall be subject to any and all applicable federal, state and local income, employment and other taxes, and the Employers will deduct from each payment to be made to a Participant under the Plan such amounts, if any, required
to be deducted or withheld under applicable law. 
 9.6 Limitation on Benefits. 

(a) Limitation on Payments. Anything in the Plan or in any other agreement, contract, understanding, plan or program
entered into or maintained by the Employers to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event it shall be determined that any payment, distribution or benefit to or for the benefit of the a Participant, whether paid or payable, distributed or
distributable or provided or to be provided pursuant to the terms of the Plan or otherwise (collectively, the “Payments”), would, in the reasonable determination of the independent certified public accounting firm then retained by the
Employers (the “Tax Advisor”), not be deductible (in whole or in part) by the Employers, an affiliate of the Employers or other person making such payment or distribution or providing such benefit as a result of Section 280G of the
Code, and/or any successor provision or section thereto, then the cash and non-cash payments, distributions and/or benefits payable or to be provided to the Participant under the Plan shall be reduced to the extent necessary, but no more than
necessary, that no portion of the Payments not be deductible as a result of Section 280G of the Code. For purposes of this Section 9.6(a), (i) no portion of the Payments, the receipt or enjoyment of which the Participant shall have
effectively waived in writing prior to his or her termination of employment, shall be taken into account, (ii) no portion of the Payments shall be taken into account that, in the opinion of the Tax Advisor, does not constitute a “parachute
payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code, including without limitation by reason of Section 280G(b)(4)(A) of the Code, (iii) any payments, distributions and/or benefits under the Plan or otherwise for
services to be rendered on or after the effective date of a “change in control” shall be reduced only to the extent necessary so that such payments, distributions and/or benefits in their entirety constitute reasonable compensation for
services actually rendered within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(4)(B) of the Code or are otherwise not subject to disallowance as deductions, in the opinion of the Tax Advisor, and (iv) the value of any non-cash payment or benefit or any
deferred payment or benefit included in the Payments shall be determined by the Tax Advisor in accordance with the principles of Sections 280G(d)(3) and 280G(d)(4) of the Code and the applicable regulations or proposed regulations under the Code.
All of the foregoing calculations, determinations and opinions shall be made or otherwise rendered in good faith by the Employers and the Tax Advisor, as applicable, and shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties. The Employers shall pay all
costs and expenses incurred in connection with any such calculations, determinations and opinions. 

  
 13 








 (b) Delay in Distribution. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in the Plan, if at the time of a Participant’s Separation from Service, the Participant is considered a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, and if any payment or benefit that
the Participant becomes entitled to under this Agreement is considered deferred compensation subject to interest, penalties and additional tax imposed pursuant to Section 409A(a) of the Code as a result of the application of
Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, then such payment shall be payable or benefit shall be provided on the date that is the earlier of (i) six months and one day after the Participant’s Separation from Service, or (ii) within
thirty (30) days following the Participant’s death. 
 9.7 Governing Law; Regulatory Restrictions. 

The Plan shall be construed under and governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts except to the extent pre-empted by ERISA, and with and subject
to any federal laws to which the Employers may be subject as an FDIC insured institution. In addition to the foregoing: 

(a) In no event shall the Employers be obligated to make any payment pursuant to the Plan that is prohibited by
Section 18(k) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (codified at 12 U.S.C. sec. 1828(k)), 12 C.F.R. Part 359, or any other applicable law. 

(b) In no event shall the Employers be obligated to make any payment pursuant to the Plan if: 

(i) MHC or the Bank is in default as defined in Section 3(x) (12 U.S.C. sec. 1813(x)(1)) of the Federal Deposit
Insurance Act, as amended; or 
 (ii) the FDIC enters into an agreement to provide assistance to or on behalf of the
Employers under the authority contained in Section 13(c) (12 U.S.C. sec. 1823(c)) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, as amended. 

9.8 Arbitration of Disputes. 
 Any
controversy or claim arising out of or relating to the Plan or arising out of the Participant’s employment or the termination of that employment (including, without limitation, any claims of unlawful employment discrimination whether based on
age or otherwise) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be settled by arbitration in any forum and form agreed upon by the parties or, in the absence of such an agreement, under the auspices of the American Arbitration Association
(“AAA”) in Boston, Massachusetts, in accordance with the Employment Dispute Resolution Rules of the AAA, including, but not limited to, the rules and procedures applicable to the selection of arbitrators. In the event that any person or
entity other than the Participant or the Employers may be a party with regard to any such controversy or claim, such controversy or claim shall be submitted to arbitration, subject to such other person or entity’s agreement. Judgment upon the
award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. This Section 9.8 shall be specifically enforceable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 9.8 shall not preclude either party from pursuing a
court action for the sole purpose of obtaining a temporary restraining order or a preliminary injunction in circumstances in which such relief is appropriate; provided that any other relief shall be pursued through an arbitration proceeding pursuant
to this Section 9.8.
