 SECTION 1 
 Introduction 
 Section 1.01 Nature of the Plan. 
 Effective as of January 1, 2006 (the “Effective Date”), Fox Chase Bank (the “Bank”) hereby establishes the Fox Chase Bank Employee Stock
Ownership Plan (the “Plan”) to enable Eligible Employees (as defined in Section 2.01(o) of the Plan) to acquire stock ownership interests in Fox Chase Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), the holding company of the Bank. The Bank
intends this Plan to be a tax-qualified stock bonus plan under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and an employee stock ownership plan within the meaning of Section 407(d)(6) of the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), and Sections 409 and 4975(e)(7) of the Code. The Plan is designed to invest primarily in the common stock of the Company, which stock constitutes “qualifying
employer securities” within the meaning of Section 407(d)(5) of ERISA and Sections 409(l) and 4975(e)(8) of the Code. Accordingly, the Plan and Trust Agreement (as defined in Section 2.01(mm) of the Plan) shall be interpreted and
applied in a manner consistent with the Bank’s intent for it to be a tax-qualified plan designed to invest primarily in qualifying employer securities. 
 The Plan reflects certain provisions of the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 (“EGTRRA”). The provisions related to EGTRRA are intended as good faith compliance with EGTRRA and the guidance issued
thereunder. To the extent any provision of the Plan was operated according to an effective date earlier than as required by law, then such date shall be the effective date with respect to that provision of the Plan. 
 Section 1.02 Employers and Affiliates. 
 The Bank and each
of its Affiliates (as defined in Section 2.01(c) of the Plan) that, with the consent of the Bank, adopt the Plan pursuant to the provisions of Section 12.01 of the Plan are collectively referred to as the “Employers” and
individually as an “Employer.” The Plan shall be treated as a single plan with respect to all participating Employers.

	(t)	“Exchange Act” means the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

terminated) due to vacation, holiday, illness, incapacity (including disability), layoff, jury duty, military duty or leave of absence. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, no credit shall be given to the Employee for: 


 

	 	(A)	more than 501 hours under this clause (ii) because of any single continuous period in which the Employee performs no duties (whether or not such period occurs in a single

 The crediting of Hours of Service shall be determined by the Committee in accordance with the rules set forth in
Section 2530.200b-2 of the regulations prescribed by the Department of Labor, which rules shall be consistently applied with respect to all Employees within the same job classification. If an Employer finds it impracticable to count actual
Hours of Service for any class or group of non-hourly Employees, each Employee in that class or group shall be credited with 45 Hours of Service for each weekly period in which he has at least one Hour of Service. However, an Employee shall be

the Code, his Hours of Service shall include the Hours of Service that would have been credited to him if he had not been so absent (or 45 Hours of Service for each week of such absence if the actual Hours of Service cannot be determined). An
Employee shall be credited for such Hours of Service (up to a maximum of 501 Hours of Service) in the Plan Year in which his absence begins (if such crediting will prevent him from incurring a One Year Break in Service in such Plan Year) or, in all
other cases, in the following Plan Year. An absence from employment for maternity or paternity reasons means an absence: 
  

	 	(i)	by reason of pregnancy of the Employee, 

  

	 	(ii)	by reason of the birth of a child of the Employee, 

  

	 	(iii)	by reason of the placement of a child with the Employee in connection with the adoption of such child by such Employee, or

constitute a Termination of Service but shall be considered to be a period of employment by the Employer provided (i) such military service is caused by war or other emergency or the Employee is required to serve under the laws of conscription
in time of peace, (ii) the Employee returns to employment with the Employer within six (6) months following discharge from such military service and (iii) such Employee is reemployed by the Employer at a time when the Employee had a

 10 








 SECTION 4 
 Contributions 
 Section 4.01 Employer Contributions. 
  

	(a)	Discretionary Contributions. Each Plan Year, each Employer, in its discretion, may make a contribution to the Trust. Each Employer making a contribution for any Plan
Year under this Section 4.01(a) will contribute to the Trustee cash equal to, or Company Stock or other property having an aggregate fair market value equal to, such amount as the Board of Directors of the Employer shall determine by
resolution. Notwithstanding the Employer’s discretion with respect to the medium of contribution, an Employer shall not make a contribution in any medium which would make such contribution a prohibited transaction (for which no exemption is
provided) under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code. 

  

	(b)	Employer Contributions for Acquisition Loans. Each Plan Year, the Employers shall, subject to any regulatory prohibitions, contribute an amount of cash sufficient to
enable the Trustee to discharge any indebtedness incurred with respect to an Acquisition Loan pursuant to the terms of the Acquisition Loan. The Employers’ obligation to make contributions under this Section 4.01(b) shall be reduced to the
extent of any investment earnings attributable to such contributions and any cash dividends paid with respect to Company Stock held by the Trustee in the Loan Suspense Account. If there is more than one Acquisition Loan, the Employers shall
designate the one to which any contribution pursuant to this Section 4.01(b) is to be applied.

Contributions. 
 In no event shall an Employer’s contribution(s) made under Section 4.01 of the Plan for any Plan Year exceed the lesser
of: 
  

	(a)	The maximum amount deductible under Section 404 of the Code by that Employer as an expense for Federal income tax purposes; and 

  

	(b)	The maximum amount which can be credited for that Plan Year in accordance with the allocation limitation provisions of Section 5.05 of the Plan. 

  

 11 








 Section 4.03 Acquisition Loans. 
 The Trustee may incur Acquisition Loans from time to time to finance the acquisition of Company Stock for the Trust or to repay a prior Acquisition Loan. An Acquisition Loan shall be for a specific term, shall bear a
reasonable rate of interest, shall not be payable in demand, except in the event of default, and shall be primarily for the benefit of Participants and Beneficiaries of the Plan. An Acquisition Loan may be secured by a collateral pledge of the
Financed Shares so acquired and any other Plan assets which are permissible securities within the provisions of Section 54.4975-7(b) of the Treasury Regulations. No other assets of the Plan or Trust may be pledged as collateral for an
Acquisition Loan, and no lender shall have recourse against any other Trust assets. Any pledge of Financed Shares must provide for the release of shares so pledged on a basis equal to the principal and interest (or if the requirements of
Section 54.4975-7(b)(8)(ii) of the Treasury Regulations are met and the Employer so elects, principal payments only), paid by the Trustee on the Acquisition Loan. The released Financed Shares shall be allocated to Participants’ Accounts in
accordance with the provisions of Sections 5.04 or 5.08 of the Plan, whichever is applicable. Payment of principal and interest on any Acquisition Loan shall be made by the Trustee only from the Employer contributions paid in cash to enable the
Trustee to repay such loan in accordance with Section 4.01(b) of the Plan, from earnings attributable to such contributions, and any cash dividends received by the Trustee on Financed Shares acquired with the proceeds of the Acquisition Loan
(including contributions, earnings and dividends received during or prior to the year of repayment less such payments in prior years), whether or not allocated. Financed Shares shall initially be credited to the Loan Suspense Account and shall be
transferred for allocation to the Company Stock Accounts of Participants only as payments of principal and interest (or, if the requirements of Section 54.4975-7(b)(8)(ii) of the Treasury Regulations are met and the Employer so elects,
principal payments only), on the Acquisition Loan are made by the Trustee. The number of Financed Shares to be released from the Loan Suspense Account for allocation to Participants’ Company Stock Account for each Plan Year shall be based on
the ratio that the payments of principal and interest (or, if the requirements of Section 54.4975-7(b)(8)(ii) of the Treasury Regulations are met and the Employer so elects, principal payments only), on the Acquisition Loan for that Plan Year
bears to the sum of the payments of principal and interest on the Acquisition Loan for that Plan Year plus the total remaining payment of principal and interest projected (or, if the requirements of Section 54.4975-7(b)(8)(ii) of the Treasury
Regulations are met and the Employer so elects, principal payments only), on the Acquisition Loan over the duration of the Acquisition Loan repayment period, subject to the provisions of Section 5.05 of the Plan. 
 Section 4.04 Conditions as to Contributions. 
 In addition
to the provisions of Section 12.03 of the Plan for the return of an Employer’s contributions in connection with a failure of the Plan to qualify initially under the Code, any amount contributed by an Employer due to a good faith mistake of
fact, or based upon a good faith but erroneous determination of its deductibility under Section 404 of the Code, shall be returned to the Employer within one year after the date on which the Employer originally made such contribution, or within
one year after its nondeductibility has been finally determined. 

  

 12 








 
However, the amount to be returned shall be reduced to take account of any adverse investment experience within the Trust in order that the balance credited
to each Participant Account is not less than it would have been if the contribution had never been made by the Employer. 
 Section 4.05 Employee
Contributions. 
 Employee contributions are neither required nor permitted under the Plan. 
 Section 4.06 Rollover Contributions. 
 Rollover
contributions to the Plan of assets from other tax-qualified retirement plans are not permitted under the Plan. 
 Section 4.07 Trustee-to-Trustee
Transfers. 
 Trustee-to-trustee transfers of assets from other tax-qualified retirement plans are not permitted under the Plan.

 The Committee shall establish the Accounts (and sub-accounts, if deemed necessary) for each Participant, and the accounting procedures for the purpose of making
allocations to Participants’ Accounts as provided for in this Section 5. The Committee shall maintain adequate records of the cost basis of shares of Company Stock allocated to each Participant’s Company Stock Account. The Committee
also shall keep separate records of Financed Shares attributable to each Acquisition Loan and of contributions made by the Employers (and any earnings thereon) made for the purpose of enabling the Trustee to repay any Acquisition Loan. From time to
time, the Committee may modify its accounting procedures for the purpose of achieving equitable and nondiscriminatory allocations among the Accounts of Participants, in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5 and the applicable
requirements of the Code and ERISA. In accordance with Section 9 of the Plan, the Committee may delegate the responsibility for maintaining Accounts and records. 
 Section 5.02 Maintenance of Participants’ Company Stock Accounts. 
 As of each Valuation Date, the
Committee shall adjust the Company Stock Account of each Participant to reflect activity during the Valuation Period as follows: 
  

	(a)	First, charge to each Participant’s Company Stock Account all distributions and payments made to him that have not been previously charged; 

  

	(b)	Next, credit to each Participant’s Company Stock Account the shares of Company Stock, if any, that have been purchased with amounts from his Other Investments Account, and
adjust such Other Investments Account in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.03 of the Plan; 

  

	(c)	Next, credit to each Participant’s Company Stock Account the shares of Company Stock representing contributions made by the Employers in the form of Company Stock and the
number of Financed Shares released from the Loan Suspense Account under Section 4.03 of the Plan that are to be allocated and credited as of that date in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.04 of the Plan; and


  

	(d)	Finally, credit to each Participant’s Company Stock Account the shares of Company Stock released from the Loan Suspense Account that are to be allocated in accordance with the
provisions of Section 5.09 of the Plan. 

  

 14 








 Section 5.03 Maintenance of Participants’ Other Investments Accounts. 
 Except as otherwise provided for under Section 5.08 of the Plan, as of each Valuation Date, the Committee shall adjust the Other Investments Account of each
Participant to reflect activity during the Valuation Period as follows: 
  

	(a)	First, charge to each Participant’s Other Investments Account all distributions and payments made to him that have not previously been charged; 

  

	(b)	Next, if Company Stock is purchased with assets from a Participant’s Other Investments Account, the Participant’s Other Investments Account shall be charged accordingly;


  

	(c)	Next, subject to the dividend provisions of Section 5.09 of the Plan, credit to the Other Investments Account of each Active Participant (as defined in Section 5.04(b))
any cash dividends paid to the Trustee on shares of Company Stock held in that Participant’s Company Stock Account (as of the record date for such cash dividends) and dividends paid on shares of Company Stock held in the Loan Suspense Account
that have not been used to repay any Acquisition Loan. Subject to the provisions of Section 5.09 of the Plan, cash dividends that have not been used to repay an Acquisition Loan and have been credited to a Participant’s Other Investments
Account shall be applied by the Trustee to purchase shares of Company Stock, which shares shall then be credited to the Company Stock Account of such Participant. The Participant’s Other Investments Account shall then be charged by the amount
of cash used to purchase such Company Stock. In addition, any earnings on: 

  

	 	(i)	Other Investments Accounts will be allocated to Participants’ Other Investments Accounts, pro rata, based on such Other Investments Account balances as of the first day of the
Valuation Period, and 

  

	 	(ii)	the Loan Suspense Account, other than dividends used to repay the Acquisition Loan, will be allocated to Participants’ Other Investments Accounts, pro rata, based on their
Other Investments Account balances as of the first day of the Valuation Period; 

  

	(d)	Next, allocate and credit the Employer contributions made pursuant to Section 4.01(b) of the Plan for the purpose of repaying any Acquisition Loan, in accordance with
Section 5.04 of the Plan. Such amount shall then be used to repay any Acquisition Loan and such Participant’s Other Investments Account shall be charged accordingly; and 

  

	(e)	Finally, allocate and credit the Employer contributions (other than amounts contributed to repay an Acquisition Loan) that are made in cash (or property other than Company Stock)
for the Plan Year to the Other Investments Account of each Participant in accordance with Section 5.04 of the Plan. 

  

 15 








 Section 5.04 Allocation and Crediting of Employer Contributions. 
  

	(a)	Except as otherwise provided for in Sections 5.08 and 5.09 of the Plan, as of the Valuation Date for each Plan Year: 

  

	 	(i)	Company Stock released from the Loan Suspense Account for that year and shares of Company Stock contributed directly to the Plan shall be allocated and credited to each Active
Participant’s (as defined in paragraph (b) of this Section 5.04) Company Stock Account based on the ratio that each Active Participant’s Compensation bears to the aggregate Compensation of all Active Participants for the Plan
Year, and then 

  

	 	(ii)	The cash contributions not used to repay an Acquisition Loan and any other property contributed for that year shall be allocated and credited to each Active Participant’s Other
Investments Account based on the ratio determined by comparing each Active Participant’s Compensation to the aggregate Compensation of all Active Participants for the Plan Year. 

  

	(b)	For purposes of this Section 5.04, the term “Active Participant” means those Eligible Employees who: 

  

	 	(i)	Completed 1,000 Hours of Service during the Plan Year and are employed on the last day of the Plan Year; or 

  

	 	(ii)	terminated employment during the Plan Year by reason of death, Disability, or attainment of their Normal or Postponed Retirement Date. 

 Section 5.05 Limitations on Allocations. 
  

	(a)	In General. Subject to the provisions of this Section 5.05, Section 415 of the Code shall be incorporated by reference into the terms of the Plan. No
allocation shall be made under Section 5.04 of the Plan that would result in a violation of Section 415 of the Code. 

  

	(b)	Code Section 415 Compensation. For purposes of this Section 5.05, Compensation shall be adjusted to reflect the general rule of Section 1.415-2(d) of
the Treasury Regulations. 

  

	(c)	Limitation Year. The “limitation year” (within the meaning of Section 415 of the Code) shall be the calendar year. 

  

	(d)	Multiple Defined Contribution Plans. In any case where a Participant also participates in another defined contribution plan of the Bank or its Affiliates, the
appropriate committee of such other plan shall first reduce the after-tax contributions under any such plan, shall then reduce any elective deferrals under any such plan subject to Section 401(k) of the Code, shall then reduce all other
contributions under any other such plan and, if necessary, shall then reduce contributions under this Plan. 

  

 16 









	(e)	Excess Allocations. If, after applying the allocation provisions under Section 5.04 of the Plan, allocations under Section 5.04 of the Plan would otherwise
result in a violation of Section 415 of the Code, the Committee shall allocate and reallocate employer contributions to other Participants in the Plan for the limitation year or, if such allocation and reallocation causes the limitations of
Section 415 of the Code to be exceeded, shall hold excess amounts in an unallocated suspense account for allocation in a subsequent Plan Year in accordance with Section 1.415-6(b)(6)(i) of the Treasury Regulations. Such suspense account,
if permitted, will be credited before any allocation of contributions for subsequent limitation years. 

  

	(f)	Allocations Pursuant to Section 5.08. For purposes of this Section 5.05, no amount credited to any Participant’s Account pursuant to Section 5.08
of the Plan shall be counted as an “annual addition” for purposes of Section 415 of the Code. In the event any amount cannot be allocated to Affected Participants (as defined in Section 5.08 of the Plan) under the Plan pursuant
to Section 5.08 of the Plan in the year of a Change in Control, the amount which may not be so allocated in the year of the Change in Control shall be treated in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section 5.05.


 Section 5.06 Other Limitations. 
 Aside from the limitations set forth in Section 5.05 of the Plan, in no event shall more than one-third of the Employer contributions to the Plan (including Matching Contributions) be allocated to the Accounts of Highly Compensated
Employees. In order to ensure that such allocations are not made, the Committee shall, beginning with the Participants whose Compensation exceeds the limit then in effect under Section 401(a)(17) of the Code, reduce the amount of Compensation
of such Highly Compensated Employees on a pro-rata basis per individual that would otherwise be taken into account for purposes of allocating benefits under Section 5.04 of the Plan. If, in order to satisfy this Section 5.06, any such
Participant’s Compensation must be reduced to an amount that is lower than the Compensation amount of the next highest paid (based on such Participant’s Compensation) Highly Compensated Employee (the “breakpoint amount”), then,
for purposes of allocating benefits under Section 5.04 of the Plan, the Compensation of all concerned Participants shall be reduced to an amount not to exceed such breakpoint amount. 
 Section 5.07 Limitations as to Certain Section 1042 Transactions. 
 To the extent that a shareholder of Company Stock sells qualifying Company Stock to the Plan and elects (with the consent of the Bank) nonrecognition of gain under Section 1042 of the Code, no portion of the
Company Stock purchased in such nonrecognition transaction (or other dividends or other income attributable thereto) may accrue or be allocated during the nonallocation period (the ten (10) year period beginning on the later of the date of the
sale of the 

  

 17 








 
qualified Company Stock, or the date of the Plan allocation attributable to the final payment of an Acquisition Loan incurred in connection with such sale)
for the benefit of: 
  

	(a)	the selling shareholder; 

  

	(b)	the spouse, brothers or sisters (whether by the whole or half blood), ancestors or lineal descendants of the selling shareholder or descendant referred to in (a) above; or


  

	(c)	any other person who owns, after application of Section 318(a) of the Code, more than twenty-five percent (25%) of: 

  

	 	(i)	any class of outstanding stock of the Company or any Affiliate, or 

  

	 	(ii)	the total value of any class of outstanding stock of the Company or any Affiliate. 

 For purposes of this Section 5.07, Section 318(a) of the Code shall be applied without regard to the employee trust exception of Section 318(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code. 
 Section 5.08 Allocations Upon Termination Prior to Satisfaction of Acquisition Loan. 
  

	(a)	Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, in the event of a Change in Control, the Plan shall terminate as of the effective date of the Change in Control and, as soon as
practicable thereafter, the Trustee shall repay in full any outstanding Acquisition Loan. In connection with such repayment, the Trustee shall: (i) apply cash, if any, received by the Plan in connection with the transaction constituting a
Change in Control, with respect to the unallocated shares of Company Stock acquired with the proceeds of the Acquisition Loan, and (ii) to the extent additionally required to effect the repayment of the Acquisition Loan, obtain cash through the
sale of any stock or security received by the Plan in connection with such transaction, with respect to such unallocated shares of Company Stock. After repayment of the Acquisition Loan, all remaining shares of Company Stock held in the Loan
Suspense Account, all other stock or securities, and any cash proceeds from the sale or other disposition of any shares of Company Stock held in the Loan Suspense Account, shall be allocated among the Accounts of all Participants who were employed
by an Employer on the date immediately preceding the effective date of the Change in Control. Such allocations of shares or cash proceeds shall be credited as earnings for purposes of Section 5.05 of the Plan and Section 415 of the Code,
as of the effective date of the Change in Control, to the Accounts of each Participant who is either in active Service with an Employer, or is on a Recognized Absence, on the date immediately preceding the effective date of the Change of Control
(each an “Affected Participant”), in proportion to the opening balances in their Company Stock Accounts as of the first day of the current Valuation Period. As of the effective date of a Change in Control, all Participant Accounts shall be
fully vested and nonforfeitable. 

  

 18 









	(b)	In the event of a termination of the Plan in connection with a Change in Control, this Section 5.08 shall have no force and effect unless the price paid for the Company Stock
in connection with a Change in Control is greater than the average basis of the unallocated Company Stock held in the Loan Suspense Account as of the date of the Change in Control. 

 Section 5.09 Dividends. 
  

	(a)	Stock Dividends. Dividends on Company Stock which are received by the Trustee in the form of additional Company Stock shall be retained in the portion of the Trust
Fund consisting of Company Stock, and shall be allocated among the Participants’ Accounts and the Loan Suspense Account in accordance with their holdings of the Company Stock on which the dividends have been paid. 

  

	(b)	Cash Dividends on Allocated Shares. Dividends on Company Stock credited to Participants’ Accounts which are received by the Trustee in the form of cash shall, at
the direction of the Bank, either: 

  

	 	(i)	be credited to Participants’ Accounts in accordance with Section 5.03 of the Plan and invested as part of the Trust Fund; 

  

	 	(ii)	be distributed immediately to the Participants; 

  

	 	(iii)	be distributed to the Participants within ninety (90) days of the close of the Plan Year in which paid; or 

  

	 	(iv)	be used to repay principal and interest on the Acquisition Loan used to acquire Company Stock on which the dividends were paid. 

 In addition to the alternatives specified in the preceding paragraph regarding the treatment of cash dividends paid with respect to shares of Company Stock credited to
Participants’ Accounts, if authorized by the Committee for the Plan Year, a Participant may elect that cash dividends paid on Company Stock credited to the Participant’s Account shall either be: 
  

	 	(i)	paid to the Plan, reinvested in Company Stock and credited to the Participant’s Account; 

  

	 	(ii)	distributed in cash to the Participant; or 

  

	 	(iii)	distributed to the Participant within ninety (90) days of the close of the Plan Year in which paid. 

 Dividends subject to an election under this paragraph (and any Company Stock acquired therewith pursuant to a Participant’s election) shall at all times be fully vested. To the extent the 

  

 19 








 
Committee authorizes elections pursuant to this paragraph, the Committee shall establish policies and procedures relating to Participant elections and, if
applicable, the reinvestment of cash dividends in Company Stock, which are consistent with guidance issued under Section 404(k) of the Code. 
  

	(c)	Cash Dividends on Unallocated Shares. Dividends on Company Stock held in the Loan Suspense Account which are received by the Trustee in the form of cash shall be
applied as soon as practicable to payments of principal and interest under the Acquisition Loan incurred with the purchase of Company Stock. 

  

	(d)	Financed Shares. Financed Shares released from the Loan Suspense Account by reason of dividends paid with respect to such Company Stock shall be allocated under
Sections 5.03 and 5.04 of the Plan as follows: 

  

	 	(i)	First, Financed Shares with a fair market value at least equal to the dividends paid with respect to the Company Stock allocated to Participants’ Accounts shall be allocated
among and credited to the Accounts of such Participants, pro rata, according to the number of shares of Company Stock held in such accounts on the date such dividend is declared by the Company; and 

  

	 	(ii)	Then, any remaining Financed Shares released from the Loan Suspense Account by reason of dividends paid with respect to Company Stock held in the Loan Suspense Account shall be
allocated among and credited to the Accounts of all Participants, pro rata, according to each Participant’s Compensation. 

  

 20 








 SECTION 6 
 Vesting and Forfeitures 
 Section 6.01 Deferred Vesting in Accounts. 
 A Participant shall vest in his Accounts in accordance with the following schedule: 
  

			
	 Years of Service
	  	 Vested Percentage

	            1	  	20%
	            2	  	40%
	            3	  	60%
	            4	  	80%
	            5	  	100%

 Section 6.02 Immediate Vesting in Certain Situations. 
 Notwithstanding Section 6.01 of the Plan, a Participant shall become fully vested in his Accounts upon the earlier of: 
  

	 	(i)	termination of the Plan or upon the permanent and complete discontinuance of contributions by the Employer to the Plan; provided, however, that in the event of a partial termination
of the Plan, the interest of each Participant shall fully vest only with respect to that part of the Plan which is terminated; 

  

	 	(ii)	Attainment of the Participant’s Normal Retirement Age; 

  

	 	(iii)	a Change in Control; or 

  

	 	(iv)	Termination of Service by reason of death or Disability. 

 Section 6.03 Treatment of Forfeitures. 
  

	(a)	If a Participant who is not fully vested in his Accounts terminates employment, that portion of his Accounts in which he is not vested shall be forfeited upon the earlier of:


  

	 	(i)	the date the Participant receives a distribution of his entire vested benefits under the Plan, or 

  

	 	(ii)	the date at which the Participant incurs five (5) consecutive One Year Breaks in Service. 

  

	(b)	 If a Participant who has terminated employment and has received a distribution of his entire vested benefits under the Plan is subsequently reemployed by an
Employer prior to 



  

 21 









	 	 
incurring five (5) consecutive One Year Breaks in Service, he shall have the portion of his Accounts which was previously forfeited restored to his
Accounts, provided he repays to the Trustee within five (5) years of his subsequent employment date an amount equal to the previous distribution. The amount restored to the Participant’s Account shall be credited to his Account as of the
last day of the Plan Year in which the Participant repays the distributed amount to the Trustee and the restored amount shall come from other Employees’ forfeitures and, if such forfeitures are insufficient, from a special contribution by the
Employer for that year. If a Participant’s employment terminates prior to his Account having become vested, such Participant shall be deemed to have received a distribution of his entire vested interest as of the Valuation Date next following
his termination of employment. 


  

	(c)	If a Participant who has terminated employment but has not received a distribution of his entire vested benefits under the Plan is subsequently reemployed by an Employer subsequent
to incurring five (5) consecutive One Year Breaks in Service, any undistributed balance of his Accounts from his prior participation which was not forfeited shall be maintained as a fully vested subaccount within his Account.


  

	(d)	If a portion of a Participant’s Account is forfeited, assets other than Company Stock must be forfeited before any Company Stock may be forfeited. 

  

	(e)	Forfeitures shall be reallocated among the other Participants in the Plan. 

 Section 6.04 Accounting for Forfeitures. 
 A forfeiture shall be charged to the Participant’s Account as of the first day of
the first Valuation Period in which the forfeiture becomes certain pursuant to Section 6.03 of the Plan. Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.03 of the Plan, a forfeiture shall be added to the contributions of the terminated
Participant’s Employer which are to be credited to other Participants pursuant to Section 5 as of the last day of the Plan Year in which the forfeiture becomes certain. 
 Section 6.05 Vesting Upon Reemployment. 
 If a Participant incurs a One Year Break in Service and again
performs an Hour of Service, such Participant shall receive credit, for purposes of Section 6.01 of the Plan, for his Years of Service prior to his One Year Break in Service. 
  

 22 








 SECTION 7 
 Distributions 
 Section 7.01 Distribution of Benefit Upon a Termination of Employment. 

 

	(a)	A Participant whose employment terminates for any reason shall receive the entire vested portion of his Accounts in a single payment on a date selected by the Committee; provided,
however, that such date shall be on or before the 60th day after the end of the Plan Year in which the Participant’s employment terminated. The benefits from that portion of the Participant’s Other Investments Account shall be calculated
on the basis of the most recent Valuation Date before the date of payment. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.05 of the Plan, if the Committee so provides, a Participant may elect that his benefits be distributed to him in the form of
either Company Stock, cash, or some combination thereof. 

  

	(b)	Notwithstanding paragraph (a) of this Section 7.01, if the balance credited to a Participant’s Accounts exceeds, at the time such benefit was distributable, $1,000,
his benefits shall not be paid before the latest of his 65th birthday or the tenth anniversary of the year in which he commenced participation in the Plan, unless he elects an early payment date in a written election filed with the Committee. Such
an election is not valid unless it is made after the Participant has received the required notice under Section 1.411(a)-11(c) of the Treasury Regulations that provides a general description of the material features of a lump sum distribution
and the Participant’s right to defer receipt of his benefits under the Plan. The notice shall be provided no less than 30 days and no more than 90 days before the first day on which all events have occurred which entitle the Participant to such
benefit. Written consent of the Participant to the distribution generally may not be made within 30 days of the date the Participant receives the notice and shall not be made more than 90 days from the date the Participant receives the notice.
However, a distribution may be made less than 30 days after the notice provided under Section 1.411(a)-11(c) of the Treasury Regulations is given, if: 

  

	 	(i)	the Committee clearly informs the Participant that he has a right to a period of at least 30 days after receiving the notice to consider the decision of whether or not to elect a
distribution (and if applicable, a particular distribution option), and 

  

	 	(ii)	the Participant, after receiving the notice, affirmatively elects a distribution. 

 A Participant may modify such an election at any time, provided any new benefit payment date is at least 30 days after a modified election is delivered to the Committee. 
  

 23 








 Section 7.02 Minimum Distribution Requirements. 
 With respect to all Participants, other than those who are “5% owners” (as defined in Section 416 of the Code), benefits shall be paid on the required
beginning date which is no later than the April 1st of the later of: 
  

	 	(i)	the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Participant attains age 70-1/2, or 

  

	 	(ii)	the calendar year in which the Participant retires. 

 With respect to all
Participants who are 5% owners within the meaning of Section 416 of the Code, such Participants’ benefits shall be paid no later than the April 1st of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Participant attains age
70-1/2. 
 Section 7.03 Benefits on a Participant’s Death. 
  

	(a)	If a Participant dies before his benefits are paid pursuant to Section 7.01 of the Plan, the balance credited to his Accounts shall be paid to his Beneficiary in a single
distribution on or before the 60th day after the end of the Plan Year in which the Participant died. If the Participant has not named a Beneficiary or his named Beneficiary should not survive him, then the balance in his Accounts shall be paid to
his estate. The benefits from that portion of the Participant’s Other Investments Account shall be calculated on the basis of the most recent Valuation Date before the date of payment. 

  

	(b)	If a married Participant dies before his benefit payments begin, then, unless he has specifically elected otherwise, the Committee shall cause the balance in his Accounts to be paid
to his spouse, as Beneficiary. A married Participant may name an individual other than his spouse as Beneficiary provided that such election is accompanied by the spouse’s written consent which must: 

  

	 	(i)	acknowledge the effect of the election; 

  

	 	(ii)	explicitly provide either that the designated Beneficiary may not subsequently be changed by the Participant without the spouse’s further consent or that it may be changed
without such consent; and 

  

	 	(iii)	must be witnessed by the Committee, its representative, or a notary public. 

 This requirement shall not apply if the Participant establishes to the Committee’s satisfaction that the spouse may not be located. 
  

	(c)	 The Committee shall, from time to time, take whatever steps it deems appropriate to keep informed of each Participant’s marital status. Each Employer shall
provide the 



  

 24 









	 	 
Committee with the most reliable information in the Employer’s possession regarding its Participants’ marital status, and the Committee may, in its
discretion, require a notarized affidavit from any Participant as to his marital status. The Committee, the Plan, the Trustee, and the Employers shall be fully protected and discharged from any liability to the extent of any benefit payments made as
a result of the Committee’s good faith and reasonable reliance upon information obtained from a Participant as to the Participant’s marital status. 


 Section 7.04 Delay in Benefit Determination. 
 If the Committee is unable to determine the benefits
payable to a Participant or Beneficiary on or before the latest date prescribed for payment pursuant to this Section 7, the benefits shall in any event be paid within 60 days after they can first be determined. 
 Section 7.05 Options to Receive and Sell Company Stock. 
  

	(a)	Unless ownership of virtually all Company Stock is restricted to active Employees and qualified retirement plans for the benefit of Employees pursuant to the certificates of
incorporation or by-laws of the Employers issuing Company Stock, a terminated Participant or the Beneficiary of a deceased Participant may instruct the Committee to distribute the Participant’s entire vested interest in his Accounts in the form
of Company Stock. In that event, the Committee shall apply the Participant’s vested interest in his Other Investments Account to purchase sufficient Company Stock to make the required distribution. 

  

	(b)	Any Participant who receives Company Stock pursuant to this Section 7.05, and any person who has received Company Stock from the Plan or from such a Participant by reason of
the Participant’s death or incompetency, by reason of divorce or separation from the Participant, or by reason of a rollover distribution described in Section 402(c) of the Code, shall have the right to require the Employer which issued
the Company Stock to purchase the Company Stock for its current fair market value (hereinafter referred to as the “put right”). The put right shall be exercisable by written notice to the Committee during the first 60 days after the
Company Stock is distributed by the Plan, and, if not exercised in that period, during the first 60 days in the following Plan Year after the Committee has communicated to the Participant its determination as to the Company Stock’s current fair
market value. If the put right is exercised, the Trustee may, if so directed by the Committee in its sole discretion, assume the Employer’s rights and obligations with respect to purchasing the Company Stock. However, the put right shall not
apply to the extent that the Company Stock, at the time the put right would otherwise be exercisable, may be sold on an established market in accordance with federal and state securities laws and regulations. 

  

	(c)	 With respect to a put right, the Employer or the Trustee, as the case may be, may elect to pay for the Company Stock in equal periodic installments, not less
frequently than 



  

 25 









	 	 
annually, over a period not longer than five (5) years from the 30th day after the put right is exercised pursuant to paragraph (b) of this
Section 7.05, with adequate security and interest at a reasonable rate on the unpaid balance, all such terms to be set forth in a promissory note delivered to the seller with normal terms as to acceleration upon any uncured default.



  

	(d)	Nothing contained in this Section 7.05 shall be deemed to obligate any Employer to register any Company Stock under any federal or state securities law or to create or maintain
a public market to facilitate the transfer or disposition of any Company Stock. The put right described in this Section 7.05 may only be exercised by a person described in paragraph (b) of this Section 7.05, and may not be transferred
with any Company Stock to any other person. As to all Company Stock purchased by the Plan in exchange for any Acquisition Loan, the put right must be nonterminable. The put right for Company Stock acquired through an Acquisition Loan shall continue
with respect to such Company Stock after the Acquisition Loan is repaid or the Plan ceases to be an employee stock ownership plan. Except as provided above, in accordance with the provisions of Sections 54.4975-7(b)(4) of the Treasury Regulations,
no Company Stock acquired with the proceeds of an Acquisition Loan may be subject to any put, call or other option or buy-sell or similar arrangement while held by, and when distributed from, the Plan, whether or not the Plan is then an employee
stock ownership plan. 

 Section 7.06 Restrictions on Disposition of Company Stock. 
 Except in the case of Company Stock which is traded on an established market, a Participant who receives Company Stock pursuant to this Section 7, and any person who
has received Company Stock from the Plan or from such a Participant by reason of the Participant’s death or incompetency, divorce or separation from the Participant, or a rollover distribution described in Section 402(c) of the Code,
shall, prior to any sale or other transfer of the Company Stock to any other person, first offer the Company Stock to the issuing Employer and to the Plan at its current fair market value. This restriction shall apply to any transfer, whether
voluntary, involuntary, or by operation of law, and whether for consideration or gratuitous. Either the Employer or the Trustee may accept the offer within 14 days after it is delivered. Any Company Stock distributed by the Plan shall bear a
conspicuous legend describing the right of first refusal under this Section 7.06, as applicable, as well as any other restrictions upon the transfer of the Company Stock imposed by federal and state securities laws and regulations. 

Section 7.07 Direct Transfer of Eligible Plan Distributions . 
  

	(a)	 Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary that would otherwise limit a distributee’s election under this Section, a distributee (as defined
below) may elect to have any portion of an eligible rollover distribution (as defined below) paid directly to an eligible retirement plan (as defined below) specified by the distributee in a direct rollover (as defined below). A
“distributee” includes a Participant or former Participant. In addition, the Participant’s or former Participant’s surviving spouse and the Participant’s 



  

 26 









	 	 
or former Participant’s spouse or former spouse who is the alternate payee under a qualified domestic relations order, as defined in Section 414(p)
of the Code, are distributees with regard to the interest of the spouse or former spouse. For purposes of this Section 7.07 a “direct rollover” is a payment by the Plan to the eligible retirement plan specified by the distributee.



  

	(b)	To effect such a direct transfer, the distributee must notify the Committee that a direct rollover is desired and provide to the Committee sufficient information regarding the
eligible retirement plan to which the payment is to be made. Such notice shall be made in such form and at such time as the Committee may prescribe. Upon receipt of such notice, the Committee shall direct the Trustee to make a trustee-to-trustee
transfer of the eligible rollover distribution to the eligible retirement plan so specified. 

  

	(c)	For purposes of this Section 7.07, an “eligible rollover distribution” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 402(c)(4) of the Code and any Treasury
Regulations promulgated thereunder. To the extent such meaning is not inconsistent with the above references, an eligible rollover distribution shall mean any distribution of all or any portion of the Participant’s Account, except that such
term shall not include any distribution which is one of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (not less frequently than annually) made (i) for the life (or life expectancy) of the Participant or the joint lives (or joint life
expectancies) of the Participant and a designated Beneficiary, or (ii) for a period of ten years or more. Further, the term “eligible rollover distribution” shall not include any distribution required to be made under
Section 401(a)(9) of the Code or, the portion of any distribution that is not includible in gross income (determined without regard to the exclusions for net unrealized appreciation with respect to Company Stock). To the extent applicable under
the Plan, “eligible rollover distributions” shall also not include any hardship distribution described in Section 401(k)(2)(B)(i)(IV) of the Code. 

  

	(d)	For purposes of this Section 7.07, an “eligible retirement plan” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 402(c)(8) of the Code and any Treasury Regulations
promulgated thereunder. To the extent such meaning is not consistent with the above references, an eligible retirement plan shall mean: (i) an individual retirement account described in Section 408(a) of the Code, (ii) an individual
retirement annuity described in Section 408(b) of the Code, (iii) an annuity or annuity plan described in Section 403(a) or Section 403(b) of the Code, (iv) a qualified trust described in Section 401(a) of the Code, or
(v) a governmental plan under Section 457 of the Code that accepts the distributee’s eligible rollover distribution. However, in the case of an eligible rollover distribution to a surviving spouse, an eligible retirement plan means an
individual retirement account or individual retirement annuity.

	(a)	In General. The Trustee shall generally vote all shares of Company Stock held in the Trust in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.01.


  

	(b)	Allocated Shares. Shares of Company Stock which have been allocated to Participants’ Accounts shall be voted by the Trustee in accordance with the
Participants’ written instructions. 

  

	(c)	Uninstructed and Unallocated Shares. Shares of Company Stock which have been allocated to Participants’ Accounts but for which no written instructions have been
received by the Trustee regarding voting shall be voted by the Trustee in a manner calculated to most accurately reflect the instructions the Trustee has received from Participants regarding voting shares of allocated Company Stock. Shares of
unallocated Company Stock shall also be voted by the Trustee in a manner calculated to most accurately reflect the instructions the Trustee has received from Participants regarding voting shares of allocated Company Stock. Notwithstanding the
preceding two sentences, all shares of Company Stock which have been allocated to Participants’ Accounts and for which the Trustee has not timely received written instructions regarding voting and all unallocated shares of Company Stock must be
voted by the Trustee in a manner determined by the Trustee to be solely in the best interests of the Participants and Beneficiaries. 

  

	(d)	Voting Prior to Allocation. In the event no shares of Company Stock have been allocated to Participants’ Accounts at the time Company Stock is to be voted, each
Participant shall be deemed to have one share of Company Stock allocated to his Accounts for the sole purpose of providing the Trustee with voting instructions. 

  

	(e)	Procedure and Confidentiality. Whenever such voting rights are to be exercised, the Employers, the Committee, and the Trustee shall see that all Participants and
Beneficiaries are provided with the same notices and other materials as are provided to other holders of the Company Stock, and are provided with adequate opportunity to deliver their instructions to the Trustee regarding the voting of Company Stock
allocated to their Accounts or deemed allocated to their Accounts for purposes of voting. The instructions of the Participants with respect to the voting of shares of Company Stock shall be confidential. 

 Section 8.02 Tender Offers. 
 In the event of a tender

 Section 9.03 Duties of Committee. 
  

	(a)	The Committee shall keep whatever records may be necessary in connection with the maintenance of the Plan and shall furnish to the Employers whatever reports may be required from
time to time by the Employers. The Committee shall furnish to the Trustee whatever information may be necessary to properly administer the Trust. The Committee shall see to the filing with the appropriate government agencies of all reports and

purchase, retention, sale, exchange, and pledge of Company Stock and the creation and satisfaction of any Acquisition Loan to the extent such responsibilities are not set forth in the Trust Agreement. 

  

	(c)	The Committee shall at all times act consistently with the Bank’s long-term intention that the Plan, as an employee stock ownership plan, be invested primarily in Company
Stock. Subject to the direction of the Committee with respect to any Acquisition Loan pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.03 of the Plan, and subject to the provisions of Sections 7.05 and 11.04 of the Plan as to Participants’ rights
under certain circumstances to have their Accounts invested in Company Stock or in assets other than Company Stock, the Committee shall determine, in its sole discretion, the extent to which assets of the Trust shall be used to repay any Acquisition
Loan, to purchase Company Stock, or to invest in other assets selected by the Committee or an investment manager. No provision of the Plan relating to the allocation or vesting of any interests in Company Stock or investments other than Company
Stock shall restrict the Committee from changing any holdings of the Trust Fund, whether the changes involve an increase or a decrease in the Company Stock or other assets credited to Participants’ Accounts. In determining the proper extent of
the Trust Fund’s investment in Company Stock, the Committee shall be authorized to employ investment counsel, legal counsel, appraisers, and other agents and to pay their reasonable compensation and expenses to the extent such payments are not
prohibited by law. 

  

	(d)	If the valuation of any Company Stock is not established by reported trading on a generally recognized public market, then the Committee shall have the exclusive authority and
responsibility to determine the value of the Company Stock for all purposes under the Plan. Such value shall be determined as of each Valuation Date and on any other date as of which the Trustee purchases or sells Company Stock in a manner
consistent with Section 4975 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations issued thereunder. The Committee shall use generally accepted methods of valuing stock of similar corporations for purposes of arm’s length business and investment
transactions, and in this connection the Committee shall obtain, and shall be protected in relying upon, the valuation of Company Stock as determined by an independent appraiser (as defined in Section 401(a)(28)(c) of the Code).

 If the Committee finds at any time that an individual qualifying for benefits under this Plan is a minor or is incompetent, the Committee may direct the benefits to be paid, in the case of a minor, to his parents, his legal guardian, a
custodian for him under the Uniform Transfers to Minors 

  

 31 








 
Act, or the person having actual custody of him, or, in the case of an incompetent, to his spouse, his legal guardian, or the person having actual custody of
him. The Committee and the Trustee shall not be obligated to inquire as to the actual use of the funds by the person receiving them under this Section 9.09, and any such payment shall completely discharge the obligations of the Plan, the
Trustee, the Committee, and the Employers to the extent of the payment.

 Section 9.11 Abstention by Interested Member.

 Within 90 days after receiving a claim for benefits (or within

 SECTION 11

 Section 11.01 Creation of Trust Fund. 
 All amounts received under the Plan from an Employer and investments shall be held in a Trust Fund pursuant to the terms of this Plan and the Trust Agreement. The
benefits described in this Plan shall be payable only from the assets of the Trust Fund. Neither the Bank, any other Employer, its board of directors or trustees, its stockholders, its officers, its employees, the Committee, nor the Trustee shall be
liable for payment of any benefit under this Plan except from the Trust Fund. 
 Section 11.02 Company Stock and Other Investments.

 The Trust Fund held by the Trustee shall be divided into Company Stock and investments other than Company Stock. The Trustee shall have no investment
responsibility for the portion of the Trust Fund consisting of Company Stock, but shall accept any Employer contributions made in the form of Company Stock, and shall acquire, sell, exchange, distribute, and otherwise deal with and dispose of
Company Stock in accordance with the instructions of the Committee. 
 Section 11.03 Acquisition of Company Stock. 
 From time to time the Committee may, in its sole discretion, direct the Trustee to acquire Company Stock from the issuing Employer or from shareholders, including
shareholders who are or have been Employees, Participants, or fiduciaries with respect to the Plan. The Trustee shall pay for such Company Stock no more than its fair market value, which shall be determined conclusively by the Committee pursuant to
Section 9.03(d) of the Plan. The Committee may direct the Trustee to finance the acquisition of Company Stock through an Acquisition Loan subject to the provisions of Section 4.03 of the Plan. 
 Section 11.04 Participants’ Option to Diversify. 
 The Committee shall establish a procedure under which each Participant may, during the first five years of a certain six-year period, elect to have up to 25 percent of the value of his Accounts committed to alternative investment options
within an “Investment Fund.” For the sixth year in this period, the Participant may elect to have up to 50 percent of the value of his Accounts committed to other investments. The six-year period shall begin with the Plan Year following
the first Plan Year in which the Participant has both reached age 55 and completed 10 years of participation in the Plan; a Participant’s election to diversify his Accounts must be made within the 90-day period immediately following the last
day of each of the six Plan Years. The Committee shall see that the Investment Fund includes a sufficient number of investment options to comply with Section 401(a)(28)(B) of the Code. The Committee may, in its discretion, permit a transfer of
a portion of the Participant’s Accounts to the Fox Chase Bank 401(k) Plan in order to satisfy this Section 11.04, provided such investments comply with Section 401(a)(28)(B) of the Code and such transfer is not otherwise prohibited
under the Code or ERISA. The Trustee shall comply with any investment directions received from Participants in accordance with the procedures adopted from time to time by the Committee under this Section 11.04. 
  

 34 








 SECTION 12 
 Adoption, Amendment and Termination 
 Section 12.01 Adoption of Plan by Other Employers.

 With the consent of the Bank, any entity may become a participating Employer under the Plan by: 
  

	(a)	taking such action as shall be necessary to adopt the Plan; 

  

	(b)	becoming a party to the Trust Agreement establishing the Trust Fund; and 

  

	(c)	executing and delivering such instruments and taking such other action as may be necessary or desirable to put the Plan into effect with respect to the entity’s Employees.


 Section 12.02 Adoption of Plan by Successor. 
 In the event that any Employer shall be reorganized by way of merger, consolidation, transfer of assets or otherwise, so that an entity other than an Employer shall succeed to all or substantially all of the
Employer’s business, the successor entity may be substituted for the Employer under the Plan by adopting the Plan and becoming a party to the Trust Agreement. Contributions by the Employer shall be automatically suspended from the effective
date of any such reorganization until the date upon which the substitution of the successor entity for the Employer under the Plan becomes effective. If, within 90 days following the effective date of any such reorganization, the successor entity
shall not have elected to become a party to the Plan, or if the Employer shall adopt a plan of complete liquidation other than in connection with a reorganization, the Plan shall be automatically terminated with respect to Employees of the Employer
as of the close of business on the 90th day following the effective date of the reorganization, or as of the close of business on the date of adoption of a plan of complete liquidation, as the case may be. 
 Section 12.03 Plan Adoption Subject to Qualification. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the adoption of the Plan and the execution of the Trust Agreement are conditioned upon their being determined initially by the Internal Revenue Service to meet the qualification requirements
of Section 401(a) of the Code, so that the Employers may deduct currently for federal income tax purposes their contributions to the Trust and so that the Participants may exclude the contributions from their gross income and recognize income
only when they receive benefits. In the event that this Plan is held by the Internal Revenue Service not to qualify initially under Section 401(a) of the Code, the Plan may be amended retroactively to the earliest date permitted by the Code and
the applicable Treasury Regulations in order to secure qualification under Section 401(a) of the Code. If this Plan is held by the Internal Revenue Service not to qualify initially under Section 401(a) of the Code either as originally
adopted or as amended, each Employer’s contributions to the Trust under this Plan 

  

 35 








 
(including any earnings thereon) shall be returned to it and this Plan shall be terminated. In the event that this Plan is amended after its initial
qualification, and the Plan, as amended, is held by the Internal Revenue Service not to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code, the amendment may be modified retroactively to the earliest date permitted by the Code and the applicable Treasury
Regulations in order to secure approval of the amendment under Section 401(a) of the Code. 
 Section 12.04 Right to Amend or Terminate.

  

	(a)	The Bank intends to continue this Plan as a permanent program. However, each participating Employer separately reserves the right to suspend, supersede, or terminate the Plan at any
time and for any reason, as it applies to that Employer’s Employees, and the Bank reserves the right to amend, suspend, supersede, merge, consolidate, or terminate the Plan at any time and for any reason, as it applies to the Employees of all
Employers. 

  

	(b)	No amendment, suspension, supersession, merger, consolidation, or termination of the Plan shall reduce any Participant’s or Beneficiary’s proportionate interest in the
Trust Fund, or shall divert any portion of the Trust Fund to purposes other than the exclusive benefit of the Participants and their Beneficiaries prior to the satisfaction of all liabilities under the Plan. Except as is required for purposes of
compliance with the Code or ERISA, neither the provisions of Section 5.04 relating to the crediting of contributions, forfeitures and shares of Company Stock released from the Loan Suspense Account, nor any other provision of the Plan relating
to the allocation of benefits to Participants, may be amended more frequently than once every six months. Moreover, there shall not be any transfer of assets to a successor plan or merger or consolidation with another plan unless, in the event of
the termination of the successor plan or the surviving plan immediately following such transfer, merger, or consolidation, each participant or beneficiary would be entitled to a benefit equal to or greater than the benefit he would have been
entitled to if the plan in which he was previously a participant or beneficiary had terminated immediately prior to such transfer, merger, or consolidation. Following a termination of this Plan by the Bank, the Trustee shall continue to administer
the Trust and pay benefits in accordance with the Plan and the Committee’s instructions. 

  

	(c)	In the event of a Change in Control, the Plan shall be terminated and allocations made to Participants in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.08 of the Plan.


  

 36

relates to the provision of child support, alimony, or property rights to a present or former spouse, child, or other dependent of a Participant pursuant to a domestic relations order, unless such judgment, decree or order is determined to be a
“qualified domestic relations order” as defined in Section 414(p) of the Code.

the exclusive benefit of Participants and their Beneficiaries prior to the satisfaction of all liabilities under the Plan. 
 Section 13.05
Separability of Provisions. 
 If any provision of the Plan is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the other provisions of the Plan shall not be

Process.

Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Act receiving a distribution of Company Stock from the Plan must hold such Company Stock for a period of six months, commencing with the date of distribution. However, this restriction will
not apply to Company Stock distributions made in connection with death, retirement, Disability or termination of employment, or made pursuant to the terms of a qualified domestic relations order.

 Time and Manner of Distribution. 
 1.1 Required Beginning Date. The participant’s entire interest will be distributed, or begin to be distributed, to the participant no later than the participant’s required beginning date. 

1.2 Death of Participant Before Distributions Begin. If the participant dies before distributions begin, the participant’s entire interest
will be distributed, or begin to be distributed, no later than as follows: 
  

	 	(a)	If the participant’s surviving spouse is the participant’s sole designated beneficiary, then, except as provided in the adoption agreement, distributions to the surviving
spouse will begin by December 31 of the calendar year immediately following the calendar year in which the participant died, or by December 31 of the calendar year in which the participant would have attained age 70  1/2, if later. 

  

	 	(b)	If the participant’s surviving spouse is not the participant’s sole designated beneficiary, then, except as provided in the adoption agreement, distributions to the
designated beneficiary will begin by December 31 of the calendar year immediately following the calendar year in which the participant died. 

  

	 	(c)	If there is no designated beneficiary as of September 30 of the year following the year of the participant’s death, the participant’s entire interest will be
distributed by December 31 of the calendar year containing the fifth anniversary of the participant’s death. 

  

	 	(d)	If the participant’s surviving spouse is the participant’s sole designated beneficiary and the surviving spouse dies after the participant but before distributions to the
surviving spouse begin, this section 1.2, other than section 1.2(a), will apply as if the surviving spouse were the participant. 

 1.3 Forms of Distribution. All distributions under this Plan will be made in a single lump sum. 
 Required Minimum Distributions During
Participant’s Lifetime. 
 1.1 Amount of Required Minimum Distribution For Each Distribution Calendar Year. During the
participant’s lifetime, the minimum amount that will be distributed for each distribution calendar year is the lesser of: 
  

	 	(a)	the quotient obtained by dividing the participant’s account balance by the distribution period in the Uniform Lifetime Table set forth in section 1.401(a)(9)-9 of the Treasury
regulations, using the participant’s age as of the participant’s birthday in the distribution calendar year; or 

  

 39 









	 	(b)	if the participant’s sole designated beneficiary for the distribution calendar year is the participant’s spouse, the quotient obtained by dividing the participant’s
account balance by the number in the Joint and Last Survivor Table set forth in section 1.401(a)(9)-9 of the Treasury regulations, using the participant’s and spouse’s attained ages as of the participant’s and spouse’s birthdays
in the distribution calendar year; or 

 1.2 Lifetime Required Minimum Distributions Continue Through Year of
Participant’s Death. Required minimum distributions will be determined under this section 3 beginning with the first distribution calendar year and up to and including the distribution calendar year that includes the participant’s date
of death. 
 Required Minimum Distributions After Participant’s Death. 
 1.1 Death On or After Date Distributions Begin.  
  

	 	(a)	Participant Survived by Designated Beneficiary. If the participant dies on or after the date distributions begin and there is a designated beneficiary, the minimum amount that will
be distributed for each distribution calendar year after the year of the participant’s death is the quotient obtained by dividing the participant’s account balance by the longer of the remaining life expectancy of the participant or the
remaining life expectancy of the participant’s designated beneficiary, determined as follows: 

  

	 	1.	The participant’s remaining life expectancy is calculated using the age of the participant in the year of death, reduced by one for each subsequent year.


  

	 	2.	If the participant’s surviving spouse is the participant’s sole designated beneficiary, the remaining life expectancy of the surviving spouse is calculated for each
distribution calendar year after the year of the participant’s death using the surviving spouse’s age as of the spouse’s birthday in that year. For distribution calendar years after the year of the surviving spouse’s death, the
remaining life expectancy of the surviving spouse is calculated using the age of the surviving spouse as of the spouse’s birthday in the calendar year of the spouse’s death, reduced by one for each subsequent calendar year.


  

	 	3.	If the participant’s surviving spouse is not the participant’s sole designated beneficiary, the designated beneficiary’s remaining life expectancy is calculated using
the age of the beneficiary in the year following the year of the participant’ death, reduced by one for each subsequent year. 

  

 40 









	 	(b)	No Designated Beneficiary. If the participant dies on or after the date distributions begin and there is no designated beneficiary as of September 30 of the year after the year
of the participant’s death, the minimum amount that will be distributed for each distribution calendar year after the year of the participant’s death is the quotient obtained by dividing the participant’s account balance by the
participant’s remaining life expectancy calculated using the age of the participant in the year of death, reduced by one for each subsequent year. 

 1.2 Death Before Date Distributions Begin. 
  

	 	(a)	Participant Survived by Designated Beneficiary. Except as provided in the adoption agreement, if the participant dies before the date distributions begin and there is a designated
beneficiary, the minimum amount that will be distributed for each distribution calendar year after the year of the participant’s death is the quotient obtained by dividing the participant’s account balance by the remaining life expectancy
of the participant’s designated beneficiary, determined as provided in this Section. 

  

	 	(b)	No Designated Beneficiary. If the participant dies before the date distributions begin and there is no designated beneficiary as of September 30 of the year following the year
of the participant’s death, distribution of the participant’s entire interest will be completed by December 31 of the calendar year containing the fifth anniversary of the participant’s death. 

  

	 	(c)	Death of Surviving Spouse Before Distributions to Surviving Spouse Are Required to Begin. If the participant dies before the date distributions begin, the participant’s
surviving spouse is the participant’s sole designated beneficiary, and the surviving spouse dies before distributions are required to begin to the surviving spouse, this section will apply as if the surviving spouse were the participant.

before the participant’s death, the first distribution calendar year is the calendar year immediately preceding the calendar year which contains the 

  

 41 








 
participant’s required beginning date. For distributions beginning after the participant’s death, the first distribution calendar year is the
calendar year in which distributions are required to begin under section 2.2. The required minimum distribution for the participant’s first distribution calendar year will be made on or before the participant’s required beginning date. The
required minimum distribution for other distribution calendar years, including the required minimum distribution for the distribution calendar year in which the participant’s required beginning date occurs, will be made on or before

valuation calendar year after the valuation date and decreased by distributions made in the valuation calendar year after the valuation date. The account balance for the valuation calendar year includes any amounts rolled over transferred to the
plan either in the valuation calendar year or in the distribution calendar year if distributed or transferred in the valuation calendar year.

 SECTION 14 
 Top-Heavy Provisions 
 Section 14.01 Top-Heavy Provisions. 
 If, as of the last day of the first Plan Year, or thereafter, if as of the day next preceding the beginning of any Plan Year (the “Determination Date”), the
Plan is a “top-heavy plan” (determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 416(g) of the Code), that is, the aggregate present value of the accrued benefits and account balances of all “Key Employees” (within the
meaning of Section 416(i) of the Code, and for this purpose using the definition of Compensation, as modified under Section 5.05(b) of the Plan) and their Beneficiaries, exceeds sixty percent (60%) of the aggregate present value of
the accrued benefits and account balances of all employees and their beneficiaries, the provision specified in this Section 14 will automatically become effective as of the first day of the Plan Year. This calculation shall be made in
accordance with Section 416(g) of the Code, taking into consideration plans which are considered part of the Aggregation Group. The term “Aggregation Group” shall include each plan of the Bank or any of its Affiliates that includes a
Key Employee and each plan of the Bank or any of its Affiliates that allows the Plan to meet the requirements of Section 401(a)(4) of the Code or Section 410 of the Code and may include any other plan of the Bank or any of its Affiliates,
if the Aggregation Group would continue to meet the requirements of Sections 401(a)(4) and 410 of the Code. 
 Section 14.02 Plan Modifications
Upon Becoming Top-Heavy. 
  

	(a)	Minimum Accruals. Section 5.04 of the Plan will be modified to provide that the aggregate amount of Employer contributions allocated in each Plan Year to the
Accounts of each Participant who is a non-Key Employee (as defined under Section 416(i)(1) of the Code), and who is employed by an Employer as of the last day of the Plan Year, may not be less than the lesser of: 

  

	 	(i)	three percent of his Compensation for the Plan Year; and 

  

	 	(ii)	a percentage of his Compensation equal to the largest percentage obtained by dividing the sum of the amount credited to the Accounts of any Key Employee by that Key Employee’s
Compensation. 

 If a Participant’s vested interest in his Accounts is to be determined in a year during which the Plan is a top-heavy
plan, then it shall be based on the following schedule: 
  

			
	 Years of Service
	  	 Vested Percentage

	Fewer than 3 years	  	0%
	3 or more years	  	100%

 The preceding provisions will remain in effect for the period in which the Plan is top-heavy. If, for any
particular year thereafter, the Plan is no longer top-heavy, the provisions contained in this Section 14.02 shall cease to apply, except that any previously vested portion of any Account balance shall remain nonforfeitable.

 This TRUST AGREEMENT effective
                    , 2006, BETWEEN, Fox Chase Bank with its administrative office
                                     (hereinafter called the
“Company”), and                              with its administrative office at
                                 (hereinafter called the “Trustee”).

 WITNESSETH THAT: 
 WHEREAS, the Company has approved and adopted an employee stock ownership plan for the benefit of its employees, the Fox Chase Bank Employee Stock Ownership Plan (hereinafter called the “Plan”); and

 WHEREAS, the Company has authorized the execution of this Trust Agreement and has appointed
[                        ]as Trustee of the Trust Fund created pursuant to the Plan; and 
 WHEREAS,
[                        ] has agreed to act as Trustee and to hold and administer the assets of the Plan in accordance
with the terms of this Trust Agreement. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, the Company and the Trustee agree as follows: 
 Section 1. Creation of Trust 
 1.1
Trustee [                        ] shall serve as Trustee of the Trust Fund created in accordance with and in
furtherance of the Plan, and shall serve as Trustee until their removal or resignation in accordance with Section 6. 
 1.2 Trust
Fund The Trustee hereby agrees to accept contributions from the Employer as defined in the Plan and amounts transferred from other qualified retirement plans from time to time in accordance with the terms of the Plan. All such property and
contributions, together with income thereon and increments thereto, shall constitute the “Trust Fund” to be held in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement. 
 1.3 Incorporation of Plan An instrument entitled “Fox Chase Bank Employee Stock Ownership Plan” is incorporated herein by reference, and
this Trust Agreement shall be interpreted consistently with that Plan. All words and phrases defined in that Plan shall have the same meaning when used in this Trust Agreement. 
 1.4 Name The name of this trust shall be “Fox Chase Bank Employee Stock Ownership Plan Trust.” 
 1.5 Nondiversion of Assets In no event shall any part of the corpus or income of the Trust Fund be used for, or diverted to, purposes other than
for the exclusive benefit of the Participants and their Beneficiaries prior to the satisfaction of all liabilities under the Plan, except to the extent that assets may be returned to the Employer in accordance with the Plan where the Plan fails to
qualify initially under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”), or where they are attributable to contributions made by mistake of fact or in excess of the deductibility allowed under the Code.

 Section 2. Investment of Trust Fund and Administrative Powers of the Trustee 
 2.1 Fox Chase Bancorp, Inc. Stock and Other Investments The basic investment policy of the Plan shall be to invest primarily in Fox Chase Bancorp,
Inc. Stock for the exclusive benefit of the Participants and their Beneficiaries. The Committee shall have full and complete investment authority and responsibility with respect to the purchase, retention, sale, exchange, and pledge of Fox Chase
Bancorp, Inc. Stock and the payment of Stock Obligations, and the Trustee shall not deal in any way with Fox Chase Bancorp, Inc. Stock except in accordance with their obligations pursuant to this Trust Agreement and the written instructions of the
Committee. The Trustee shall invest, or keep invested, all or a portion of the Trust Fund in Fox Chase Bancorp, Inc. Stock, and shall pay Stock Obligations out of assets of the Trust Fund, as instructed from time to time by the Committee. The
Trustee shall invest any balance of the Trust Fund (the “Investment Fund”) in such other property as the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall deem advisable, subject to any delegation of such investment responsibility pursuant to
Section 2.2. Nothing contained herein shall provide investment discretion authority or any like kind responsibility in regard to the assets of the Trust Fund. 
 In connection with instructions to acquire Fox Chase Bancorp, Inc. Stock, the Trustee may purchase newly issued or outstanding Fox Chase Bancorp, Inc. Stock from the Employer or any other holders of Fox Chase Bancorp,
Inc. Stock, including Participants, Beneficiaries, and Plan fiduciaries. All purchases and sales of Stock shall be made by the Trustee at fair market value as determined by the Committee in good faith and in accordance with any applicable
requirements under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”). Such purchases may be made with assets of the Trust Fund, with funds borrowed for this purpose (with or without guarantees of repayment to the
lender by the Employer), or by any combination of the foregoing. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Trust Agreement or the Plan,
neither the Committee nor the Trustee shall make any purchase, sale, exchange, investment, pledge, valuation, or loan, or take any other action involving those assets for which they are responsible which (i) is inconsistent with the policy of
the Plan and Trust, (ii) is inconsistent with the prudence and diversification requirements set forth in Sections 404(a)(1)(B) and (C) of ERISA (to the extent such requirements apply to an employee stock ownership plan and trust),
(iii) is prohibited by Section 406 or 407 of ERISA, or (iv) would impair the qualification of the Plan or the exemption of the Trust under Sections 401 and 501, respectively, of the Code. 
 2.2 Delegation of Investment Responsibility The Committee may, by written notice and in accordance with the Plan, direct the Trustee to segregate
any portion or all of the Investment Fund into one or more separate accounts for each of which full investment responsibility will be delegated to an investment manager appointed in such notice pursuant to Section 402(c)(3) of ERISA
(hereinafter a “Manager”). For any separate account where the Trustee is to maintain custody of the assets, the Trustee and the Manager shall agree upon procedures for the transmittal of investment instructions from the Manager to the
Trustee, and the Trustee may provide the Manager with such documents as may be necessary to authorize the Manager to effect transactions directly on behalf of the segregated account. 
  

 2 








 Further, the Committee may, by written notice and in accordance with the Plan, direct the Trustee to
segregate any portion or all of the Investment Fund into one or more separate accounts for each of which full investment responsibility will be delegated to an insurance company through one or more group annuity contracts, deposit administration
contracts, or similar contracts, which may provide for investments in any commingled separate accounts established under such contracts. An insurance company shall be a Manager with respect to any amounts held under such a contract except to the
extent the insurer’s assets are not deemed assets of the Plan and Trust Fund pursuant to Section 401(b)(2) of ERISA. The allocation of amounts held under such a contract among the insurer’s general account and one or more individual
or commingled separate accounts shall be determined by the Committee except as otherwise agreed by the Committee and the insurer. 
 Any
Manager shall have all of the powers given to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.3 with respect to the portion of the Trust Fund committed to its investment discretion and control. The Trustee shall be responsible for the safekeeping of any
assets which remain in their custody, but in no event shall the Trustee be under any duty to question or make any inquiry or suggestion regarding the action or inaction of a Manager or an insurer or the advisability of acquiring, retaining, or
disposing of any asset of a segregated account. The Employer shall indemnify and hold the Trustee harmless from any and all costs, damages, expenses, and liabilities which the Trustee may incur by reason of any action taken or omitted to be taken by
the Trustee upon directions from the Committee, a Manager, or an insurer pursuant to this Section 2.2. 
 2.3 Trustee Powers In
addition to and not by way of limitation upon the fiduciary powers granted to it by law, the Trustee shall have the following specific powers, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.1: 
 2.3-1 to receive, hold, manage, invest and reinvest the money or other property which constitutes the Trust Fund, without distinction between principal
and income; 
 2.3-2 to hold funds uninvested temporarily, provided it is a period of time that is not unreasonable, without liability for

 2.3-3 at the direction of the Committee, to invest or reinvest the whole or any portion of the money or other property which constitutes
the Trust Fund in such common or preferred stocks, investment trust shares, mutual funds, commingled trust funds, partnership interests, bonds, notes, or other evidences of indebtedness, and real and personal property as the Trustee in their
absolute judgment and discretion may deem to be for the best interests of the Trust Fund, regardless of nondiversification to the extent that such nondiversification is clearly prudent, and regardless of whether any such investment or property is
authorized by law regarding the investment of trust funds, of a wasting asset nature, temporarily nonincome producing, or within or without the United States; 
  

 3 








 2.3-4 to invest in common and preferred stocks, bonds, notes, or other obligations of any corporation or

 2.3-7 to hold any investment or property in the name of the Trustee, with or without the designation of any fiduciary capacity, or in the name of a

of its responsibility to maintain safe custody of such investment or property; 
 2.3-8 to organize one or more corporations to hold, manage,
or liquidate any property, including real estate, owned or acquired by the Trust Fund if in the sole discretion of the Trustee the organization of such corporation or corporations is for the best interests of the Trust and the Plan Participants and
Beneficiaries; 
 2.3-9 to extend the time for payment of, to modify, to renew, or to release security from any mortgage, note or other

consideration; 
 2.3-10 to vote in person or by proxy all stocks and other securities having voting privileges; to exercise or refrain from
exercising any option or privilege with respect to stocks and other securities, including any right or privilege to subscribe for or otherwise to acquire stocks and other securities; or to sell any such right or privilege; to assent to and join in
any plan of refinance, merger, consolidation, reorganization or liquidation of any corporation or other enterprise in which this Trust may have an interest, to deposit stocks and other securities with any committee formed to effectuate the same, to
pay any expense incidental thereto, to exchange stocks and other securities for those which may be issued pursuant to any such plan, and to retain as an investment the stocks and other securities received by the Trustee; and to deposit any
investment in a voting trust; notwithstanding the preceding, Participants and Beneficiaries shall be entitled to direct the manner in which stock allocated to their respective accounts are to be voted on all matters. All stock which has been
allocated to Participants’ Accounts for which the Trustee has received no written direction and all unallocated Employer securities will be voted by the Trustee in direct proportion to any Participant’s directions received and solely in
the interest of the Participants and Beneficiaries. Whenever such voting rights are to be exercised, the Employer, the Committee and the Trustee shall see that all Participants and Beneficiaries are 
  

 4 








 provided with adequate opportunity to deliver their instructions to the Trustee regarding voting of stock allocated to
their accounts. The instructions of the Participants with respect to the voting of allocated shares hereunder shall be confidential; 
 2.3-11 to abandon any property, real or personal, which the Trustee shall consider to be worthless or not of sufficient value to warrant its keeping or protecting; to abstain from the payment of taxes, water rents, assessments, repairs,
maintenance, and upkeep of any such property; to permit any such property to be lost by tax sale or other proceedings, and to convey any such property for a nominal consideration or without consideration; 
 2.3-12 to borrow money from the Employer or from others (including the Trustee), and to enter into installment contracts, for the purchase of Stock upon
such terms and conditions and at such reasonable rates of interest as the Committee may deem to be advisable, to issue its promissory notes as Trustee to evidence such debt, to secure the payment of such notes by pledging any property of the Trust
Fund, and to authorize the holders of any such notes to pledge them to secure obligations of the holders and in connection therewith to repledge any assets of the Trust as security therefor; provided that, with respect to any extension of credit to
the Trust involving, as a lender or guarantor, the Employer or other “disqualified person” within the meaning of Section 4975(e)(2) of the Code — 
  

	 	(a)	each loan or installment contract is primarily for the benefit of Participants and Beneficiaries of the Plan; 

  

	 	(b)	any interest on a loan or installment contract does not exceed a reasonable rate;

 Section 3. Compensation and Indemnification of Trustee and Payment of Expenses and Taxes

Fund In consideration for rendering services pursuant to this Trust Agreement the Trustee shall be paid fees in accordance with the Trustee’s fee schedule as in effect from time to time. Fee changes resulting in fee increases shall be
effective upon not less than 30 days’ notice to the Company. In addition, the Trustee shall be reimbursed for any reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred in the administration of the Trust created hereby. Fees
and expenses shall be allocated to Participants’ Accounts, if any, unless paid directly by the Employer. All compensation and expenses of the Trustee shall be paid out of the Trust Fund or by the Employer as specified in the Plan. If and to the
extent the Trust Fund shall not be sufficient, such compensation and expenses shall be paid by the Employer upon demand. If payment is due but not paid by the Employer, such amount shall be paid from the assets of the Trust Fund. The Trustee is
hereby empowered to withdraw all such compensation and expenses which are 60 days past due from the Trust Fund, and, in furtherance thereof, liquidate any assets of the Trust Fund, without further authorization or direction from or by any person.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event any officer or director of Fox Chase Bank serves as trustee of the Plan, no compensation shall be paid to the officer or director in exchange for his or her services as trustee. 
 3.2 Indemnification Notwithstanding any other provision of this Trust Agreement, any individual designated as a trustee hereunder shall be
indemnified and held harmless by the Employer to the fullest extent permitted by law against any and all costs, damages, expenses and liabilities including, but not limited to attorneys’ fees and disbursements reasonably incurred by or imposed
upon such individual in connection with any claim made against him or in which he may be involved by reason of his being, or having been, a trustee hereunder, to the extent such amounts are not satisfied by insurance maintained by the Employer,
except liability which is adjudicated to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Trustee by reason of any action so taken. Further, any corporate trustee and its officers, directors and agents may be indemnified and held
harmless by the Employer to the fullest extent permitted by law against any and all costs, damages, expenses and liabilities including, but not limited to, 
  

 7 








 attorneys’ fees and disbursements reasonably incurred by or imposed upon such persons and/or corporation in
connection with any claim made against it or them or in which such persons and/or corporation may be involved by reason of its being, or having been, a trustee hereunder as may be agreed between the Employer and such trustee, except liability which
is adjudicated to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Trustee by reason of any action so taken. 
 3.3
Expenses All expenses of administering the Trust and the Plan, whether incurred by the Trustee or the Committee, shall be paid by the Trustee from the Trust Fund to the extent such expenses shall not have been assumed by the Employer.

 3.4 Taxes All taxes that may be levied or assessed upon or in respect of the Trust Fund shall be paid from the Trust Fund. The
Trustee shall notify the Committee of any proposed or final assessments of taxes and may assume that any such taxes are lawfully levied or assessed unless the Committee advises it in writing to the contrary within fifteen days after receiving the
above notice from the Trustee. In such case, the Trustee, if requested by the Committee in writing, shall contest the validity of such taxes in any manner deemed appropriate by the Committee; the Employer may itself contest the validity of any such
taxes, in which case the Committee shall so notify the Trustee and the Trustee shall have no responsibility or liability respecting such contest. If either party to this Agreement contests any such proposed levy or assessments, the other party shall
provide such information and cooperation as the party conducting the contest shall reasonably request. 
 Section 4. Records and
Valuation 
 4.1 Records The Trustee, and any investment manager appointed pursuant to Section 2.2, shall maintain accurate
and detailed records and accounts of all investments, receipts, disbursements and other transactions made by it with respect to the Trust Fund, and all accounts, books and records relating thereto shall be open at all reasonable time to inspection
and audit by the Committee and the Employer. 
 4.2 Valuation From time to time upon the request of the Committee, but at least
annually as of the last day of each Plan Year, the Trustee shall prepare a balance sheet of the Investment Fund in accordance with the Plan and shall deliver copies of the balance sheet to the Committee and the Employer. 
 4.3 Discharge of Trustee Ninety days after the filing of any balance sheet under Section 4.2 or any accounting under Section 6, the
Trustee shall be forever released and discharged from any liability or accountability other than for gross negligence or wilful misconduct on the part of the Trustee to anyone with respect to the transactions shown or reflected in such balance sheet
or accounting, except with respect to any acts or transactions as to which the Committee, within such ninety-day period, files written objections with the Trustee. The written approval of the Committee of any balance sheet or accounting so filed by
the Trustee, or the Committee’s failure to file written objections within ninety days, shall be a settlement of such balance sheet or accounting as against all persons, and shall forever release and discharge the Trustee from any liability of
accountability to anyone with respect to the 
  

 8 








 transactions shown or reflected in such balance sheet or accounting other than liability arising out of the
Trustee’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct. If a statement of objections is filed by the Committee and the Committee is satisfied that its objections should be withdrawn or if the balance sheet or accounting is adjusted to its
satisfaction, the Committee shall indicate its approval of the balance sheet or accounting in a written statement filed with the Trustee and the Trustee shall be forever released and discharged from any liability of accountability to anyone in
accordance with the immediately preceding sentence. If an objection is not settled by the Committee and the Trustee, the Trustee may start a proceeding for a judicial settlement of the balance sheet or accounting in any court of competent
jurisdictions; the only parties that need be joined in such a proceeding are the Trustee, the Committee, the Employer and any other parties whose participation is required by law. 
 4.4 Right to Judicial Settlement Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the Trustee from having its account settled by a court of competent
jurisdiction at any time. The only parties that need be joined in any such proceeding are the Employer, the Committee, the Trustee and any other parties whose participation is required by law. 
 Section 5. Instructions from Committee. 
 5.1 Certification of Members of the Committee. From time to time the Company shall certify to the Trustee in writing the names of the individuals comprising the Committee and shall furnish to the Trustee specimens of their signatures
and the signatures of their agents, if any. The Trustee shall be entitled to presume that the identities of such individuals and their agents are unchanged until it receives a certification from the Company notifying it of any changes. 

5.2 Instructions to Trustee. 
 (a)
The Trustee shall pay benefits and administrative expenses under the Plan only when it receives (and in accordance with) written instructions of the Committee indicating the amount of the payment and the name and address of the recipient in
accordance with the terms of the Plan. The Trustee need not inquire into whether any payment the Committee instructs the Trustee to make is consistent with the terms of the Plan or applicable law or otherwise proper. Any payment made by the Trustee
in accordance with such instructions shall be a complete discharge and acquaintance to the Trustee. If the Committee advises the Trustee that benefits have become payable with respect to a Participant’s interest in the Trust Fund but does not
instruct the Trustee as to the manner of payment, the Trustee shall hold the Participant’s interest in the Trust until the Trustee receives written instructions from the Committee as to the manner of payment. The Trustee shall not pay benefits
from the Trust Fund without such instructions, even though it may be informed from other sources, including, without limitation, a Participant or Beneficiary, that benefits are payable under the Plan. The Trustee shall have no responsibility to
determine when, to whom or in what amount benefits and expenses are payable under the Plan. Further, the Trustee shall have no power, authority or duty to interpret the Plan or inquire into the decisions or determinations of the Committee, or to
question the instructions given to it by the Committee. If the Committee so directs, the Trustee shall segregate amounts payable with respect to the interest in the Plan of any Participant and administer them separately from the rest of the Trust
Fund in accordance with the Committee’s instructions.

 (b) The Trustee may require the Committee to certify in writing that any payment of benefits or expenses
it instructs the Trustee to make pursuant to Section 5.2(a) above is: (i) in accordance with the terms of the Plan and/or (ii) one which the Committee is authorized by the Plan and any other applicable instruments to direct and/or
(iii) made for the exclusive purpose of providing benefits to Participants and Beneficiaries, or defraying reasonable expenses of Plan administration and/or (iv) not made to a party in interest (within the meaning of ERISA
Section 3(14)), and/or (v) not a prohibited transaction (within the meaning of Code Section 4975 and ERISA Section 406). If the Trustee requests, instructions to pay benefits shall be made by the Committee on forms prepared by
the Trustee to include any or all of the above representations. The Trustee shall be fully protected in relying on the truth of any such representation by the Committee and shall have no duty to investigate whether such representations are correct
or to see to the application of any amounts paid to and received by the recipient. 
 5.3 Plan Change In the event of an amendment,
merger, division, or termination of the Plan, the Trustee shall continue to disburse funds and to take other proper actions in accordance with the instructions of the Committee. 
 Section 6. Change of Trustee 
 The Company may at any time remove any person or entity serving as a Trustee hereunder by giving to such person or entity written notice of removal and, if applicable, the name and address of the successor trustee. Any person or entity
serving as a Trustee hereunder may resign at any time by giving written notice to the Company. Any such removal or resignation shall take effect within 30 days after notice has been given by the Trustee or by the Company, as the case may be. Within
those 30 days, the removed or resigned Trustee shall transfer, pay over and deliver any portion of the Trust Fund in its possession or control (less an appropriate reserve for any unpaid fees, expenses, and liabilities) and all pertinent records to
the successor or remaining trustee; provided, however, that any assets which are invested in a collective fund or in some other manner which prevents their immediate transfer shall be transferred and delivered to the successor trustee as soon as may
be practicable. Thereafter, the removed or resigned Trustee shall have no liability for the Trust Fund or for its administration by the successor or remaining trustee, but shall render an accounting to the Committee of its administration of the
Trust Fund through the date on which its Trusteeship shall have been terminated. The Company may also, upon 30 days’ notice to each person currently serving as a trustee, appoint one or more persons to serve as co-Trustee hereunder. 

Section 7. Miscellaneous 
 7.1
Right to Amend This Trust Agreement may be amended from time to time by an instrument executed by the Company; provided, however, that any amendment affecting the powers, duties or liabilities of the Trustee must be approved by the Trustee,
and provided, further, that no amendment may divert any portion of the Trust Fund to purposes other than the exclusive benefit of the Participants and their Beneficiaries prior to the satisfaction of all liabilities for benefits. Any amendment shall
apply to the Trust Fund as constituted at the time of the amendment as well as to that portion of the Trust Fund which is subsequently acquired.

 7.2 Compliance with ERISA In the exercise of its powers and the performance of its duties, the
Trustee shall act in good faith and in accordance with the applicable requirements under ERISA. Except as may be otherwise required by ERISA, the Trustee shall not be required to furnish any bond in any jurisdiction for the performance of their
duties and, if a bond is required despite this provision, no surety shall be required on it. 
 7.3 Nonresponsibility for Funding The
Trustee shall be under no duty to enforce the payment of any contributions and shall not be responsible for the adequacy of the Trust Fund to satisfy any obligations for benefits, expenses, and liabilities under the Plan. 
 7.4 Reports The Trustees shall file any report which they are required by law to file with any governmental authority with respect to this Trust,
and the Committee shall furnish to the Trustee whatever information is necessary to prepare the report. 
 7.5 Dealings with the
Trustee Persons dealing with the Trustee, including, but not limited to, banks, brokers, dealers, and insurers, shall be under no obligation to inquire concerning the validity of anything which the Trustee purports to do, nor need any person see
to the proper application of any money paid or any property transferred upon the order of the Trustee or to inquire into the Trustee’s authority as to any transaction. 
 7.6 Limitation Upon Responsibilities The Trustee shall have no responsibilities with respect to the Plan or Trust other than those specifically
enumerated or explicitly allocated to it under this Trust Agreement or the provisions of ERISA. All other responsibilities are retained and shall be performed by one or more of the Employer, the Committee, and such advisors or agents as they choose
to engage. 
 The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereof and perform any of its duties by or through attorneys, agents,
receivers or employees and shall not be answerable for the conduct of the same if chosen with reasonable care and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters of trust hereof and the duties hereunder, and may in all cases pay such
reasonable compensation to all such attorneys, agents, receivers and employees as may reasonably be employed in connection with the trusts hereof. The Trustee may act upon the opinion or advice of any attorney (who may be the attorney for the
Trustee or attorney for the Committee), approved by the Trustee in the exercise of reasonable care. The Trustee shall not be responsible for any loss or damage resulting from any action or non-action in good faith in reliance upon such opinion or
advice. 
 The Trustee shall be protected in acting upon any notice, request, consent, certificate, order, affidavit, letter, telegram or
other paper or document believed to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper person or persons, and the Trustee shall be under no duty to make any investigation or inquiry as to any statement contained in any such writing
but may accept the same as conclusive evidence of the truth and accuracy of the statements therein contained. 
  

 11 








 The Trustee shall not be liable for other than their gross negligence or willful misconduct. Except in
the case of gross negligence or wilful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee in its corporate capacity shall not be liable for claims of any persons in any manner regarding the Plan; such claims shall be limited to the Trust Fund.
Unless the Trustee participates knowingly in, or knowingly undertakes to conceal, an act or omission of the Committee or any other fiduciary, knowing such act or omission to be a breach of fiduciary responsibility, the Trustee shall be under no
liability for any loss of any kind which may result by reason of such act or omission. 
 Before taking any action hereunder at the request
or direction of the Committee, the Trustee may require that indemnity in form and amount satisfactory to the Trustee be furnished for the reimbursement of any and all costs and expenses to which they may be put including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys’ fees and to protect them against all liability, except liability which is adjudicated to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Trustee by reason of any action so taken. 
 No provision of this Trust Agreement shall require the Trustee to expend or risk their own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the
performance of any of their duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of their rights or powers, if they shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not
reasonably assured to them. 
 7.7 Qualification of the Plan and Trust The Trustee shall be fully protected in assuming that the Plan
and Trust meet the requirements of Code Sections 401 and 501, respectively, and all the applicable provisions of ERISA, unless they are advised to the contrary in writing by the Committee or a governmental agency. 
 7.8 Party in Interest Information The Employer shall provide the Trustee with such information concerning the relationship between any person or
organization and the Plan as the Trustee reasonably requests in order to determine whether such person or organization is a party in interest with respect to the Plan within the meaning of ERISA Section 3(14). 
 7.9 Disputes If a dispute arises as to the payment of any funds or delivery of any assets by the Trustee, the Trustee may withhold such payment or
delivery until the dispute is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or finally settled in writing by the parties concerned. 
 7.10
Successor Trustee This Trust Agreement shall apply to any person who shall be appointed to succeed the person currently appointed as the Trustee; and any reference herein to the Trustee shall be deemed to include any one or more individuals
or corporations or any combination thereof who or which have at any time acted as a co-trustee or as the sole trustee. 
 7.11 Governing
State Law This Trust Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to the extent those laws may be applicable under the provisions of ERISA.
