##### Table of Contents

This report contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of
the federal securities laws. These statements are not historical facts; rather, they are statements based on Ocean Shore Holding Co.s current expectations regarding its business strategies, intended results and future performance.
Forward-looking statements are preceded by terms such as expects, believes, anticipates, intends and similar expressions.

Managements ability to predict results or the effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could
affect actual results include: interest rate trends; the general economic climate in the market area in which Ocean Shore Holding Co. operates, as well as nationwide; Ocean Shore Holding Co.s ability to control costs and expenses; competitive
products and pricing; loan delinquency rates and changes in federal and state legislation and regulation. These factors should be considered in evaluating the forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements.
Ocean Shore Holding Co. assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements.

PART I



|Item 1. | BUSINESS
|------- | --------

General

Ocean Shore Holding Co. (Ocean Shore Holding or the Company) was incorporated on September 2, 2008 as a New
Jersey corporation to become the holding company for Ocean City Home Bank (the Bank) upon completion of the conversion of Ocean City Home Bank from the mutual holding company form of organization to the stock holding company form. The
conversion involved the sale by the Company of 4,186,250 shares of common stock in a public offering to depositors and members of the general public, the exchange of 3,121,868 shares of common stock of the Company for each share of common stock of
the former Ocean Shore Holding Co. held by persons other than OC Financial MHC, and the elimination of the former Ocean Shore Holding Co. and OC Financial MHC. The conversion and related stock offering were completed on December 18, 2009. The
Companys assets consist of its investment in Ocean City Home Bank and its liquid investments. The Company is primarily engaged in the business of directing, planning, and coordinating the business activities of the Bank. The Companys
most significant asset is its investment in the Bank. In the future, Ocean Shore Holding may acquire or organize other operating subsidiaries; however, there are no current definitive agreements or understandings to do so.

Ocean City Home Bank is a federally chartered savings bank. The Bank operates as a community-oriented financial institution offering a wide
range of financial services to consumers and businesses in our market area. The Bank attracts deposits from the general public, small businesses and municipalities and uses those funds to originate a variety of consumer and commercial loans, which
we hold primarily for investment.

Our Web site address is www.ochome.com. We make available on our Web site, free of charge,
our annual report or Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and amendments to these reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. Information on our Web site should not be considered a part of this Form
10-K.

Market Area

We are headquartered in Ocean City, New Jersey, and serve the southern New Jersey shore communities through a total of ten full service offices, eight in Atlantic County and two in Cape May County. Our markets are in the southeastern
corner of New Jersey, approximately 65 miles east of Philadelphia and 130 miles south of New York.

The economy of Atlantic
County is dominated by the service sector, of which the gaming industry in nearby Atlantic City is the primary employer. The national economic crisis has negatively impacted the gaming industry.

##### Table of Contents

Several large construction projects have been put on hold and the gaming industry has experienced a reduction in employment. While Ocean City Home Bank is not engaged in lending to the casino
industry, the employment or businesses of many of Ocean City Home Banks customers directly or indirectly benefit from the industry. Notwithstanding this, to date, we have not seen a direct impact from the downturn in the gaming industry in our
business or results of operation. However, we cannot be certain that the negative impact of the economic downturn has been fully realized.

The economy of Cape May County is dominated by the tourism industry, as the countys shore area has been a summer vacation destination for over 100 years. Many visitors maintain second homes in the
area which are used seasonally, and there is an active rental market as well as hotels and motels serving other visitors to the area.

Competition

We face significant competition for the attraction of deposits and origination of loans. Our most
direct competition for deposits has historically come from the many financial institutions operating in our market area. We also face competition for investors funds from money market funds, mutual funds and other corporate and government
securities. Our competition for loans comes primarily from financial institutions in our market area and, to a lesser extent, from other financial service providers, such as mortgage companies and mortgage brokers. Competition for loans also comes
from non-depository financial service companies that have entered the mortgage market, such as insurance companies, securities companies and specialty finance companies.

Several large banks operate in our market area, including Bank of America, PNC Bank, Wachovia (now owned by Wells Fargo & Company), and TD Bank (formerly Commerce Bank). These institutions are
significantly larger than us and, therefore, have significantly greater resources. According to data provided by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, as of June 30, 2009, we had a deposit market share of 6.37% in Atlantic County, which
represented the 7th largest deposit market share out of 16 banks with offices in the county. In Cape May County, at that same date we had a deposit market share of 8.27%, which represented the 6th largest market share out of 14 banks with offices in
the county.

We expect competition to remain intense in the future as a result of legislative, regulatory and technological
changes and the continuing trend of consolidation in the financial services industry. Technological advances, for example, have lowered barriers to entry, allowed banks to expand their geographic reach by providing services over the Internet and
made it possible for non-depository institutions to offer products and services that traditionally have been provided by banks. Changes in federal law permit affiliation among banks, securities firms and insurance companies, which promotes a
competitive environment in the financial services industry. Competition for deposits and the origination of loans could limit our growth in the future.

Lending Activities

One- to Four-Family Residential Loans.Our primary lending activity is the origination of mortgage loans to enable borrowers to purchase or refinance existing homes in our market area. We offer fixed-rate and adjustable-rate mortgage loans with terms up to 40 years. Interest rates
and payments on our adjustable-rate mortgage loans generally adjust periodically after an initial fixed period that ranges from one to 10 years. Interest rates and payments on our adjustable-rate loans generally are adjusted to a rate typically
equal to 2.75% to 3.25% above the one-, three- or ten-year constant maturity Treasury index. The maximum amount by which the interest rate may be increased or decreased is generally 1 or 2% per adjustment period and the lifetime interest rate
cap is generally 5 or 6% over the initial interest rate of the loan.

Borrower demand for adjustable-rate loans versus
fixed-rate loans is a function of the level of interest rates, the expectations of changes in the level of interest rates, and the difference between the interest rates and loan fees offered for fixed-rate mortgage loans and the initial period
interest rates and loan fees for adjustable-rate

loans. The relative amount of fixed-rate mortgage loans and adjustable-rate mortgage loans that can be originated at any time is largely determined by the demand for each in a competitive
environment. The loan fees charged, interest rates and other provisions of mortgage loans are determined by us on the basis of our own pricing criteria and competitive market conditions.

In order to attract borrowers, we have developed products and policies to provide flexibility in times of changing interest rates. For
example, some of our adjustable-rate loans permit the borrower to convert the loan to a fixed-rate loan. In addition, for a fixed fee plus a percentage of the loan amount, we will allow the borrower to modify a loans interest rate, term or
program to equal the current rate for the desired loan product. We also offer loans that require the payment of interest only for a period of years.

While one- to four-family residential real estate loans are normally originated with up to 40-year terms, such loans typically remain outstanding for substantially shorter periods because borrowers often
prepay their loans in full upon sale of the property pledged as security or upon refinancing the original loan. Therefore, average loan maturity is a function of, among other factors, the level of purchase and sale activity in the real estate
market, prevailing interest rates and the interest rates payable on outstanding loans.

Because of our location on the South
Jersey shore, many of the properties securing our residential mortgages are second homes or rental properties. At December 31, 2009, 40.0% of our one- to four-family mortgage loans were secured by second homes and 10.4% were secured by rental
properties. If the property is a second home, our underwriting emphasizes the borrowers ability to repay the loan out of current income. If the property is a rental property, we focus on the anticipated income from the property. Interest rates
on loans secured by rental properties are typically 1/2% higher than comparable loans secured by primary or secondary residences. Although the industry generally considers mortgage loans secured by rental properties or second homes to have a higher
risk of default than mortgage loans secured by the borrowers primary residence, we generally have not experienced credit problems on these types of loans.

We generally do not make conventional loans with loan-to-value ratios exceeding 95% and generally make loans with a loan-to-value ratio in excess of 80% only when secured by first and/or second liens on
owner-occupied one- to four-family residences or private mortgage insurance. When the residence securing the loan is not the borrowers primary residence, loan-to-value ratios are limited to 80% when secured by a first lien or 90% when secured
by a first and second lien or private mortgage insurance. We require all properties securing mortgage loans to be appraised by a board-approved independent appraiser. We require title insurance on all first mortgage loans. Borrowers must obtain
hazard insurance, and flood insurance for loans on property located in a flood zone, before closing the loan.

In an effort to
provide financing for low and moderate income and first-time buyers, we offer special home buyers programs. We offer adjustable-rate residential mortgage loans through these programs to qualified individuals and originate the loans using modified
underwriting guidelines, including reduced fees and loan conditions.

We have not originated subprime loans (i.e., mortgage
loans aimed at borrowers who do not qualify for market interest rates because of problems with their credit history). We briefly offered alt-A loans (i.e., mortgage loans aimed at borrowers with better credit scores who borrow with
alternative documentation such as little or no verification of income), but have discontinued that practice and have few such loans in our portfolio.

Commercial and Multi-Family Real Estate Loans.We offer fixed-rate and adjustable-rate mortgage loans secured by commercial real estate. In the past, we originated loans secured by
multi-family properties and we still have a few in our portfolio. Our commercial real estate loans are generally secured by condominiums, small office buildings and owner-occupied properties located in our market area and used for businesses.

We originate fixed-rate and adjustable-rate commercial real estate loans for terms up to 20 years. Interest rates and
payments on adjustable-rate loans typically adjust every five years after a five-year initial fixed period

to a rate typically 3 to 4% above the five-year constant maturity Treasury index. In some instances, there are adjustment period or lifetime interest rate caps. Loans are secured by first
mortgages and amounts generally do not exceed 80% of the propertys appraised value.

In reaching a decision on whether
to make a commercial real estate loan, we consider the net operating income of the property, the borrowers expertise, credit history and profitability and the value of the underlying property. In addition, with respect to commercial real
estate rental properties, we will also consider the term of the lease and the nature and financial strength of the tenants. We have generally required that the properties securing these real estate loans have debt service coverage ratios (the ratio
of earnings before debt service to debt service) of at least 1.25x. Environmental surveys are generally required for commercial real estate loans of $500,000 or more.

Construction Loans.We originate loans to individuals and, to a lesser extent, builders to finance the construction of residential dwellings. We also make construction loans for commercial
development projects, including condominiums, apartment buildings and owner-occupied properties used for businesses. Our construction loans generally provide for the payment of interest only during the construction phase, which is usually 12 months.
At the end of the construction phase, the loan generally converts to a permanent mortgage loan. Loans generally can be made with a maximum loan-to-value ratio of 90% on residential construction and 80% on commercial construction. Before making a
commitment to fund a residential construction loan, we require an appraisal of the property by an independent licensed appraiser. We also will require an inspection of the property before disbursement of funds during the term of the construction
loan.

Commercial Loans. We make commercial business loans to a variety of professionals, sole
proprietorships and small businesses in our market area. We offer term loans for capital improvements, equipment acquisition and long-term working capital. These loans are secured by business assets other than real estate, such as business equipment
and inventory, and are originated with maximum loan-to-value ratios of 80%. We originate lines of credit to finance the working capital needs of businesses to be repaid by seasonal cash flows or to provide a period of time during which the business
can borrow funds for planned equipment purchases. We also offer time notes, letters of credit and loans guaranteed by the Small Business Administration. Time notes are short-term loans and will only be granted on the basis of a defined source of
repayment of principal and interest from a specific foreseeable event.

When making commercial business loans, we consider the
financial statements of the borrower, the borrowers payment history of both corporate and personal debt, the debt service capabilities of the borrower, the projected cash flows of the business, the viability of the industry in which the
customer operates and the value of the collateral.

Consumer Loans.At December 31, 2009, nearly all
of our consumer loans were home equity loans or lines of credit. The small remainder of our consumer loan portfolio consisted of loans secured by passbook or certificate accounts, secured and unsecured personal loans and home improvement loans.

The procedures for underwriting consumer loans include an assessment of the applicants payment
history on other debts and ability to meet existing obligations and payments on the proposed loan. Although the applicants creditworthiness is a primary consideration, the underwriting process also includes a comparison of the value of the
collateral, if any, to the proposed loan amount. Home equity lines of credit have adjustable rates of interest that are indexed to the prime rate as reported in The Wall Street Journal. In response to the current low interest rate
environment, we have recently included a rate floor of 41/2% on new and renewed lines of credit. Home equity loans are fixed-rate loans. We offer home equity loans with a maximum combined loan-to-value ratio at underwriting of 90% and lines of credit with a maximum loan-to-value ratio of 80%. A
home equity line of credit may be drawn down by the borrower for an initial period of ten years from the date of the loan agreement. During this period, the borrower has the option of paying, on a monthly basis, either principal and interest or only
interest. After the initial draw period, the line of credit is frozen and the amount outstanding must be repaid over the remaining ten years of the loan term.

Loan Underwriting Risks.

Adjustable-Rate Loans. While we anticipate that adjustable-rate loans will better offset the adverse effects of an increase in
interest rates as compared to fixed-rate mortgages, the increased mortgage payments required of adjustable-rate loan borrowers in a rising interest rate environment could cause an increase in delinquencies and defaults. The marketability of the
underlying property also may be adversely affected in a high interest rate environment. In addition, although adjustable-rate mortgage loans help make our asset base more responsive to changes in interest rates, the extent of this interest
sensitivity is limited by the annual and lifetime interest rate adjustment limits.

Commercial Real Estate Loans. Loans
secured by commercial real estate generally have larger balances and involve a greater degree of risk than residential mortgage loans. Of primary concern in commercial real estate lending is the borrowers creditworthiness and the feasibility
and cash flow potential of the project. Payments on loans secured by income properties often depend on the successful operation and management of the properties. As a result, repayment of such loans may be subject to a greater extent than
residential real estate loans to adverse conditions in the real estate market or the economy. To monitor cash flows on income properties, we require borrowers and loan guarantors, if any, to provide annual financial statements on commercial real
estate loans.

Construction Loans. Construction financing is generally considered to involve a higher degree of risk of
loss than long-term financing on improved, occupied real estate. Risk of loss on a construction loan depends largely upon the accuracy of the initial estimate of the propertys value at completion of construction and the estimated cost
(including interest) of construction. During the construction phase, a number of factors could result in delays and cost overruns. If the estimate of construction costs proves to be inaccurate, we may be required to advance funds beyond the amount
originally committed to permit completion of the building. If the estimate of value proves to be inaccurate, we may be confronted, at or before the maturity of the loan, with a building having a value that is insufficient to assure full repayment.
If we are forced to foreclose on a building before or at completion due to a default, there can be no assurance that we will be able to recover all of the unpaid balance of, and accrued interest on, the loan as well as related foreclosure and
holding costs.

Commercial Loans. Unlike residential mortgage loans, which generally are made on the basis of the
borrowers ability to make repayment from his or her employment or other income, and which are secured by real property whose value tends to be more easily ascertainable, commercial loans are of higher risk and typically are made on the basis
of the borrowers ability to make repayment from the cash flow of the borrowers business. As a result, the availability of funds for the repayment of commercial loans may depend substantially on the success of the business itself.
Further, any collateral securing such loans may depreciate over time, may be difficult to appraise and may fluctuate in value.

Consumer Loans. Home equity and home improvement loans are generally subject to the same risks as residential mortgage loans. Other consumer loans may entail greater risk than residential mortgage loans, particularly in the case of
consumer loans that are unsecured or secured by assets that depreciate rapidly. In such cases, repossessed collateral for a defaulted consumer loan may not provide an adequate source of repayment for the outstanding loan and the remaining deficiency
often does not warrant further substantial collection efforts against the borrower. In addition, consumer loan collections depend on the borrowers continuing financial stability, and therefore are more likely to be adversely affected by job
loss, divorce, illness or personal bankruptcy. Furthermore, the application of various federal and state laws, including federal and state bankruptcy and insolvency laws, may limit the amount that can be recovered on such loans.

Loan Originations, Purchases and Sales.Loan originations come from a number of sources. We have a good working
relationship with many realtors in our market area and employ three account executives solely for the purpose of soliciting loans. Our Web site accepts on-line applications and branch personnel are trained to take applications. We also employ three
commercial loan officers.

##### Table of Contents

We generally originate loans for portfolio but from time to time will sell residential
mortgage loans in the secondary market. Our decision to sell loans is based on prevailing market interest rate conditions and interest rate risk management. We sold no loans in the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007. At
December 31, 2009, we had no loans held for sale.

In 2007, we established a relationship with a local mortgage broker
through which we purchase loans. All loans purchased through this channel are underwritten by us. During 2009, no loans were purchased under this arrangement. At December 31, 2009, purchased loans totaled $12.7 million.

Loan Approval Procedures and Authority.Our lending activities follow written, non-discriminatory, underwriting
standards and loan origination procedures established by our board of directors and management. The board of directors has granted loan approval authority to certain officers up to prescribed limits, depending on the officers experience and
tenure. The Chief Executive Officer or Chief Lending Officer may combine their lending authority with that of one or more other officers. All extensions of credit that exceed $1.0 million in the aggregate require the approval or ratification of the
board of directors.

Loans to One Borrower.The maximum amount that we may lend to one borrower and the
borrowers related entities is generally limited, by regulation, to 15% of our stated capital and reserves. At December 31, 2009, our regulatory limit on loans to one borrower was $12.4 million. At that date, our largest lending
relationship was $4.0 million and included three commercial loans secured by commercial real estate located in Atlantic County, New Jersey, all of which were performing according to their original repayment terms at December 31, 2009.

Loan Commitments.We issue commitments for fixed-rate and adjustable-rate mortgage loans conditioned
upon the occurrence of certain events. Commitments to originate mortgage loans are legally binding agreements to lend to our customers. Commitments, excluding lines and letters of credit, as of December 31, 2009 totaled $14.0 million.

Investment Activities

We have legal authority to invest in various types of liquid assets, including U.S. Treasury obligations, securities of various federal agencies and of state and municipal governments, mortgage-backed
securities and certificates of deposit of federally insured institutions. Within certain regulatory limits, we also may invest a portion of our assets in corporate securities and mutual funds. We also are required to maintain an investment in
Federal Home Loan Bank of New York stock. While we have the authority under applicable law and our investment policies to invest in derivative securities, we had no such investments at December 31, 2009.

Our investment objectives are to provide and maintain liquidity, to provide collateral for pledging requirements, to establish an acceptable
level of interest rate and credit risk, to provide an alternate source of low-risk investments when demand for loans is weak and to generate a favorable return. Our board of directors has the overall responsibility for the investment portfolio,
including approval of the investment policy and appointment of the Investment Committee. The Investment Committee consists of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. The Investment Committee is responsible for implementation of the
investment policy and monitoring our investment performance. Individual investment transactions are reviewed and approved by the board of directors on a monthly basis, while portfolio composition and performance are reviewed at least quarterly by
the Investment Committee.

At December 31, 2009, 73.0% of our investment portfolio consisted of mortgage-backed
securities issued primarily by Government Sponsored Enterprises (GSE) Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae. None of our mortgage-backed securities had underlying collateral that would be considered subprime (i.e., mortgage loans
advanced to borrowers who do not qualify for market interest rates because of problems with their credit history). All mortgage-backed securities owned by us as of December 31, 2009 possessed the highest possible investment credit rating at
that date.

##### Table of Contents

The remainder of the portfolio consisted primarily of corporate securities, U.S. agency
securities and municipal securities. As of December 31, 2009, our investment portfolio included six corporate debt securities with a book value of $8.2 million and an estimated fair value of $5.7 million. Also included in the investment
portfolio at December 31, 2009 were two pooled trust preferred securities with a book value of $0 (after impairment charges of $3.0 million) and an estimated fair value of $0. Management reviews the investment portfolio on a periodic basis to
determine the cause of declines in the fair value of each security. We determine whether the unrealized losses are temporary in accordance with FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures and FASB ASC 320-10,
InvestmentsDebt and Equity Securities. Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such evaluation. The Company determines
whether the unrealized losses are temporary in accordance with FASB ASC 325-40, when applicable, and FASB ASC 320-10. The evaluation is based upon factors such as the creditworthiness of the issuers/guarantors, the underlying collateral, if
applicable, and the continuing performance of the securities. Management also evaluates other facts and circumstances that may be indicative of an OTTI condition. This includes, but is not limited to, an evaluation of the type of security, length of
time and extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, and near-term prospects of the issuer. Management performed its evaluation of investment securities on a quarterly basis and concluded at December 31, 2009 the amount of $1.1
million of pooled trust preferred securities classified as available for sale was deemed to be OTTI. Management concluded that the entire amount was attributable to credit related factors and, therefore, is reflected in earnings as of
December 31, 2009. These securities are held in our available for sale portfolio at an estimated fair value of $0. The decision to record these non-cash, other-than-temporary impairment charges was due to the significant decline in the market
value of these securities, which resulted from deterioration in the credit quality of the underlying collateral of the security indicating a probable shortfall in the distributions of the pool.

Deposit Activities and Other Sources of Funds

General.Deposits, borrowings and loan repayments are the major sources of our funds for lending and other investment purposes. Loan repayments are a relatively stable source of
funds, while deposit inflows and outflows and loan prepayments are significantly influenced by general interest rates and money market conditions.

Deposit Accounts. Substantially all of our depositors are residents of New Jersey. Deposits are attracted from within our market area through the offering of a broad selection of deposit
instruments, including noninterest-bearing demand accounts (such as money market accounts), regular savings accounts and certificates of deposit. Deposit account terms vary according to the minimum balance required, the time periods the funds must
remain on deposit and the interest rate, among other factors. In determining the terms of our deposit accounts, we consider the rates offered by our competition, our liquidity needs, profitability to us, matching deposit and loan products and
customer preferences and concerns. We generally review our deposit mix and pricing weekly. Our current strategy is to offer competitive rates on certificates of deposit and stress our high level of service and technology. At December 31, 2009,
we did not have any brokered deposits.

In addition to accounts for individuals, we also offer a variety of deposit accounts
designed for the businesses operating in our market area. Our business banking deposit products include commercial checking accounts, a sweep account, and special accounts for realtors, attorneys and non-profit organizations. The promotion of
commercial deposit accounts is an important part of our effort to increase our core deposits and reduce our funding costs. At December 31, 2009, commercial deposits totaled $96.1 million, or 17.9% of total deposits.

Since 1996, we have offered deposit services to municipalities and local school boards in our market area. At December 31, 2009, we had
$93.1 million in deposits from 6 municipalities and 16 school boards, all in the form of checking accounts. We emphasize high levels of service in order to attract and retain these accounts. Municipal deposit accounts differ from business accounts
in that we pay interest on those deposits and we pledge collateral (typically investment securities), in accordance with the requirements of New Jerseys Governmental

Unit Deposit Protection Act, with the New Jersey Department of Banking to secure the portion of the deposits that are not covered by federal deposit insurance. Unlike time deposits by
municipalities, which often move from bank to bank in search of the highest available rate, checking accounts tend to be stable relationships.

Borrowings.We utilize advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York and securities sold under agreements to repurchase to supplement our supply of investable funds and to meet
deposit withdrawal requirements. The Federal Home Loan Bank functions as a central reserve bank providing credit for member financial institutions. As a member, we are required to own capital stock in the Federal Home Loan Bank and are authorized to
apply for advances on the security of such stock and certain mortgage loans and other assets (principally securities which are obligations of, or guaranteed by, the United States), provided certain standards related to creditworthiness have been
met. Advances are made under several different programs, each having its own interest rate and range of maturities. Depending on the program, limitations on the amount of advances are based either on a fixed percentage of an institutions net
worth or on the Federal Home Loan Banks assessment of the institutions creditworthiness. Under its current credit policies, the Federal Home Loan Bank generally limits advances to 30% of a members assets using mortgage collateral
and an additional 20% using pledged securities for a total maximum indebtedness of 50% of assets. The Federal Home Loan Bank determines specific lines of credit for each member institution.

Subordinated Debt. In 1998, Ocean Shore Capital Trust I, a business trust formed by us, issued $15.0 million of preferred
securities in a private placement and issued approximately $464,000 of common securities to Ocean Shore Holding. Ocean Shore Capital Trust I used the proceeds of these issuances to purchase $15.5 million of our junior subordinated deferrable
interest debentures. The interest rate on the debentures and the preferred trust securities is 8.67%. The debentures are the sole assets of Ocean Shore Capital Trust I and are subordinate to all of our existing and future obligations for borrowed
money, our obligations under letters of credit and any guarantees by us of any such obligations. The stated maturity of the debentures is July 15, 2028. The debentures are subject to redemption at various prices at the option of Ocean Shore
Holding, subject to prior regulatory approval, in whole or in part after July 15, 2008.

Personnel

As of December 31, 2009, we had 130 full-time employees and 30 part-time employees, none of whom is represented by a collective
bargaining unit. We believe our relationship with our employees is good.

Subsidiaries

Ocean Shore Holdings only subsidiary is Ocean City Home Bank.

Ocean City Home Banks only active subsidiary is Seashore Financial Services, LLC. Seashore Financial Services receives commissions
from the sale of insurance products.

REGULATION AND SUPERVISION

General

As a savings and
loan holding company, Ocean Shore Holding is required by federal law to report to, and otherwise comply with the rules and regulations of, the Office of Thrift Supervision. Ocean City Home Bank, as an insured federal savings association, is subject
to extensive regulation, examination and supervision by the Office of Thrift Supervision, as its primary federal regulator, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, as the deposit insurer.

Ocean City Home Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank System and, with respect to deposit insurance, of the Deposit Insurance Fund
managed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Ocean City

Home Bank must file reports with the Office of Thrift Supervision and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation concerning its activities and financial condition and obtain regulatory approvals
prior to entering into certain transactions such as mergers with, or acquisitions of, other savings associations. The Office of Thrift Supervision and/or the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation conduct periodic examinations to test Ocean City Home
Banks safety and soundness and compliance with various regulatory requirements. This regulation and supervision establishes a comprehensive framework of activities in which an institution can engage and is intended primarily for the protection
of the insurance fund and depositors. The regulatory structure also gives the regulatory authorities extensive discretion in connection with their supervisory and enforcement activities and examination policies, including policies with respect to
the classification of assets and the establishment of adequate loan loss reserves for regulatory purposes. Any change in such regulatory requirements and policies, whether by the Office of Thrift Supervision, the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation or Congress, could have a material adverse impact on Ocean Shore Holding, Ocean City Home Bank and their operations.

Certain regulatory requirements applicable to Ocean City Home Bank and Ocean Shore Holding are referred to below or elsewhere herein. The summary of statutory provisions and regulations applicable to savings associations and their holding
companies set forth below or elsewhere in this document does not purport to be a complete description of such statutes and regulations and their effects on Ocean City Home Bank and Ocean Shore Holding and is qualified in its entirety by reference to
the actual laws and regulations.

Holding Company Regulation

Ocean Shore Holding is a unitary savings and loan holding company within the meaning of federal law. Under prior law, a unitary savings and
loan holding company, such as Ocean Shore Holding, was not generally restricted as to the types of business activities in which it may engage, provided that Ocean City Home Bank continued to be a qualified thrift lender. See Federal Savings
Association RegulationQTL Test. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 provided that no company may acquire control of a savings association after May 4, 1999 unless the company engages only in the financial activities permitted for
financial holding companies under the law (which includes those permitted for bank holding companies) or for multiple savings and loan holding companies as described below. Further, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act specified that existing savings and loan
holding companies may only engage in such activities. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, however, grandfathered the unrestricted authority for activities with respect to unitary savings and loan holding companies existing prior to May 4, 1999, so long
as the holding companys savings association subsidiary continues to comply with the qualified thrift lender test. Ocean Shore Holding qualifies for the grandfathering. Upon any non-supervisory acquisition by Ocean Shore Holding of another
savings association or savings bank that meets the qualified thrift lender test and is deemed to be a savings association by the Office of Thrift Supervision, Ocean Shore Holding would become a multiple savings and loan holding company (if the
acquired institution is held as a separate subsidiary) and would generally be limited to activities permissible for bank holding companies under Section 4(c)(8) of the Bank Holding Company Act, subject to the prior approval of the Office of
Thrift Supervision, and certain activities authorized by Office of Thrift Supervision regulation. The Office of Thrift Supervision has issued an interpretation concluding that multiple savings and loan holding companies may also engage in activities
permitted for financial holding companies.

A savings and loan holding company is prohibited from, directly or indirectly,
acquiring more than 5% of the voting stock of another savings association or savings and loan holding company, without prior written approval of the Office of Thrift Supervision and from acquiring or retaining control of a depository institution
that is not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. In evaluating applications by holding companies to acquire savings associations, the Office of Thrift Supervision considers, among other things, the financial and managerial resources
and future prospects of the company and institution involved, the effect of the acquisition on the risk to the deposit insurance funds, the convenience and needs of the community and competitive effects.

##### Table of Contents

The Office of Thrift Supervision may not approve any acquisition that would result in a
multiple savings and loan holding company controlling savings associations in more than one state, subject to two exceptions: (i) the approval of interstate supervisory acquisitions by savings and loan holding companies; and (ii) the
acquisition of a savings association in another state if the laws of the state of the target savings association specifically permit such acquisitions. The states vary in the extent to which they permit interstate savings and loan holding company
acquisitions.

Although savings and loan holding companies are not currently subject to regulatory capital requirements or
specific restrictions on the payment of dividends or other capital distributions, federal regulations do prescribe such restrictions on subsidiary savings associations. Ocean City Home Bank must notify the Office of Thrift Supervision 30 days before
declaring any dividend to Ocean Shore Holding and comply with the additional restrictions described below. In addition, the financial impact of a holding company on its subsidiary institution is a matter that is evaluated by the Office of Thrift
Supervision and the agency has authority to order cessation of activities or divestiture of subsidiaries deemed to pose a threat to the safety and soundness of the institution.

Acquisition of the Company.Under the Federal Change in Control Act, a notice must be submitted to the Office of Thrift
Supervision if any person (including a company or savings association), or group acting in concert, seeks to acquire direct or indirect control of a savings and loan holding company or savings association. A change of control may occur,
and prior notice is required, upon the acquisition of 10% or more of Ocean Shore Holdings outstanding voting stock, unless the Office of Thrift Supervision has found that the acquisition will not result in a change of control of Ocean Shore
Holding. A change in control definitively occurs upon the acquisition of 25% or more of Ocean Shore Holdings outstanding voting stock. Under the Change in Control Act, the Office of Thrift Supervision generally has 60 days from the filing of a
complete notice to act, taking into consideration certain factors, including the financial and managerial resources of the acquirer and the anti-trust effects of the acquisition. Any company that acquires control would then be subject to regulation
as a savings and loan holding company.

Federal Savings Association Regulation

Business Activities. The activities of federal savings associations are governed by federal law and regulations. Those laws and
regulations delineate the nature and extent of the business activities in which federal associations may engage. In particular, certain lending authority for federal associations, e.g., commercial, non-residential real property loans and
consumer loans, is limited to a specified percentage of the institutions capital or assets.

Capital
Requirements. The Office of Thrift Supervision capital regulations require savings associations to meet three minimum capital standards: a 1.5% tangible capital to total assets ratio; a 4% tier 1 capital to total assets leverage ratio
(3% for institutions receiving the highest rating on the CAMELS examination rating system); and an 8% risk-based capital ratio. In addition, the prompt corrective action standards discussed below also establish, in effect, a minimum 2% tangible
capital standard, a 4% leverage ratio (3% for institutions receiving the highest CAMELS rating) and, together with the risk-based capital standard itself, a 4% Tier 1 risk-based capital standard. The Office of Thrift Supervision regulations also
require that, in meeting the tangible, leverage and risk-based capital standards, institutions must generally deduct investments in and loans to subsidiaries engaged in activities as principal that are not permissible for a national bank.

The risk-based capital standard for savings associations requires the maintenance of Tier 1 (core) and total capital (which
is defined as core capital and supplementary capital, less certain specified deductions from total capital such as reciprocal holdings of depository institution capital instruments and equity investments) to risk-weighted assets of at least 4% and
8%, respectively. In determining the amount of risk-weighted assets, all assets, including certain off-balance sheet activities, recourse obligations, residual interests and direct credit substitutes, are multiplied by a risk-weight factor of 0% to
100%, assigned by the Office of Thrift Supervision capital regulation based on the risks believed inherent in the type of asset. Core (Tier 1) capital is generally defined as

common stockholders equity (including retained earnings), certain non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock and related surplus and minority interests in equity accounts of consolidated
subsidiaries less intangibles other than certain mortgage servicing rights and credit card relationships. The components of supplementary capital (Tier 2 capital) include cumulative preferred stock, long-term perpetual preferred stock, mandatory
convertible securities, subordinated debt and intermediate preferred stock, the allowance for loan and lease losses limited to a maximum of 1.25% of risk-weighted assets, and up to 45% of unrealized gains on available-for-sale equity securities with
readily determinable fair market values. Overall, the amount of supplementary capital included as part of total capital cannot exceed 100% of core capital.

The Office of Thrift Supervision also has authority to establish individual minimum capital requirements in appropriate cases upon a determination that an institutions capital level is or may become
inadequate in light of the particular circumstances. At December 31, 2009, Ocean City Home Bank met each of its capital requirements.

Prompt Corrective Regulatory Action.The Office of Thrift Supervision is required to take certain supervisory actions against undercapitalized institutions, the severity of which depends
upon the institutions degree of undercapitalization. Generally, a savings association that has a ratio of total capital to risk weighted assets of less than 8%, a ratio of Tier 1 (core) capital to risk-weighted assets of less than 4% or a
ratio of core capital to total assets of less than 4% (3% or less for institutions with the highest examination rating) is considered to be undercapitalized. A savings association that has a total risk-based capital ratio of less than
6%, a Tier 1 capital ratio of less than 3% or a leverage ratio that is less than 3% is considered to be significantly undercapitalized and a savings association that has a tangible capital to assets ratio equal to or less than 2% is
deemed to be critically undercapitalized. Subject to a narrow exception, the Office of Thrift Supervision is required to appoint a receiver or conservator within specified time frames for an institution that is critically
undercapitalized. The regulation also provides that a capital restoration plan must be filed with the Office of Thrift Supervision within 45 days of the date a savings association is deemed to have received notice that it is
undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized or critically undercapitalized. Compliance with the plan must be guaranteed by any parent holding company up to the lesser of 5% of the savings associations
total assets when it was deemed to be undercapitalized or the amount necessary to achieve compliance with applicable capital requirements. In addition, numerous mandatory supervisory actions become immediately applicable to an undercapitalized
institution, including, but not limited to, increased monitoring by regulators and restrictions on growth, capital distributions and expansion. The Office of Thrift Supervision could also take any one of a number of discretionary supervisory
actions, including the issuance of a capital directive and the replacement of senior executive officers and directors. Significantly and critically undercapitalized institutions are subject to additional mandatory and discretionary measures.

Insurance of Deposit Accounts.Ocean City Home Banks deposits are insured up to applicable limits by the
Deposit Insurance Fund of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Under the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporations risk-based assessment system, insured institutions are assigned to one of four risk categories based on supervisory evaluations, regulatory capital levels and certain other factors, with less risky institutions paying lower
assessments. An institutions assessment rate depends upon the category to which it is assigned. For calendar 2008, assessments ranged from five to forty-three basis points of each institutions deposit assessment base. Due to losses
incurred by the Deposit Insurance Fund in 2008 as a result of failed institutions, and anticipated future losses, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation adopted an across the board seven basis point increase in the assessment range for the first
quarter of 2009. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation made further refinements to its risk-based assessment that were effective April 1, 2009 and that effectively made the range seven to 771/2basis points. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation may adjust rates uniformly from one quarter to
the next, except that no adjustment can deviate more than three basis points from the base scale without notice and comment rulemaking. No institution may pay a dividend if in default of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation assessment.

##### Table of Contents

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation imposed on each insured institution a special
emergency assessment of five basis points of total assets minus tier 1 capital, as of June 30, 2009 (capped at ten basis points of an institutions deposit assessment base on the same date) in order to cover losses to the Deposit Insurance
Fund. That special assessment was collected on September 30, 2009. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation provided for similar special assessments during the fiscal two quarters of 2009, if deemed necessary. However, in lieu of further
special assessments, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation required insured institutions to prepay estimated quarterly risk-based assessments for the fourth quarter of 2009 through the fourth quarter of 2012. The estimated assessments, which
include an assumed annual assessment base increase of 5%, were recorded as a prepaid expense asset as of December 31, 2009. As of December 31, 2009, and each quarter thereafter, a charge to earnings will be recorded for each regular
assessment with an offsetting credit to the prepaid asset.

Due to the recent difficult economic conditions, deposit insurance
per account owner has been raised to $250,000 for all types of accounts until January 1, 2014. In addition, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation adopted an optional Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program by which, for a fee,
noninterest-bearing transaction accounts would receive unlimited insurance coverage until December 31, 2009, subsequently extended until June 30, 2010. Certain senior unsecured debt issued by institutions and their holding companies
between specified time frames could also be guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation through June 30, 2012, or in some cases, December 31, 2012. Ocean City Home Bank made a business decision to participate in the unlimited
noninterest-bearing transaction account coverage and Ocean City Home Bank and Ocean Shore Holding opted to participate in the unsecured debt guarantee program.

In addition to the assessment for deposit insurance, institutions are required to make payments on bonds issued in the late 1980s by the financing corporation to recapitalize predecessor deposit insurance
funds. That payment is established quarterly and for four quarters ended December 31, 2009 averaged 1.06 basis points of assessable deposits.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation has authority to increase insurance assessments. A significant increase in insurance premiums would likely have an adverse effect on the operating expenses and
results of operations of Ocean City Home Bank. Management cannot predict what insurance assessment rates will be in the future.

Insurance of deposits may be terminated by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation upon a finding that the institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations or has violated
any applicable law, regulation, rule, order or condition imposed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the Office of Thrift Supervision. The management of Ocean City Home Bank does not know of any practice, condition or violation that
might lead to termination of deposit insurance.

Loans to One Borrower. Federal law provides that savings
associations are generally subject to the limits on loans to one borrower applicable to national banks. Generally, subject to certain exceptions, a savings association may not make a loan or extend credit to a single or related group of borrowers in
excess of 15% of its unimpaired capital and surplus. An additional amount may be lent, equal to 10% of unimpaired capital and surplus, if secured by specified readily-marketable collateral.

QTL Test. Federal law requires savings associations to meet a qualified thrift lender test. Under the test, a savings
association is required to either qualify as a domestic building and loan association under the Internal Revenue Code or maintain at least 65% of its portfolio assets (total assets less: (i) specified liquid assets up to
20% of total assets; (ii) intangibles, including goodwill; and (iii) the value of property used to conduct business) in certain qualified thrift investments (primarily residential mortgages and related investments, including
certain mortgage-backed securities, but also defined to include education, credit card and small business loans) in at least 9 months out of each 12 month period.

##### Table of Contents

A savings association that fails the qualified thrift lender test is subject to certain
operating restrictions and may be required to convert to a bank charter. As of December 31, 2009, Ocean City Home Bank maintained 87.6% of its portfolio assets in qualified thrift investments and, therefore, met the qualified thrift lender
test.

Limitation on Capital Distributions.Office of Thrift Supervision regulations impose limitations upon all
capital distributions by a savings association, including cash dividends, payments to repurchase its shares and payments to shareholders of another institution in a cash-out merger. Under the regulations, an application to and prior approval of the
Office of Thrift Supervision is required prior to any capital distribution if the institution does not meet the criteria for expedited treatment of applications under Office of Thrift Supervision regulations (i.e., generally,
examination and Community Reinvestment Act ratings in the two top categories), the total capital distributions for the calendar year exceed net income for that year plus the amount of retained net income for the preceding two years, the institution
would be undercapitalized following the distribution or the distribution would otherwise be contrary to a statute, regulation or agreement with the Office of Thrift Supervision. If an application is not required, the institution must still provide
prior notice to the Office of Thrift Supervision of the capital distribution if, like Ocean City Home Bank, it is a subsidiary of a holding company. In the event Ocean City Home Banks capital fell below its regulatory requirements or the
Office of Thrift Supervision notified it that it was in need of increased supervision, Ocean City Home Banks ability to make capital distributions could be restricted. In addition, the Office of Thrift Supervision could prohibit a proposed
capital distribution by any institution, which would otherwise be permitted by the regulation, if the Office of Thrift Supervision determines that such distribution would constitute an unsafe or unsound practice.

Standards for Safety and Soundness. The federal banking agencies have adopted Interagency Guidelines prescribing Standards for
Safety and Soundness in various areas such as internal controls and information systems, internal audit, loan documentation and credit underwriting, interest rate exposure, asset growth and quality, earnings and compensation, fees and benefits. The
guidelines set forth the safety and soundness standards that the federal banking agencies use to identify and address problems at insured depository institutions before capital becomes impaired. If the Office of Thrift Supervision determines that a
savings association fails to meet any standard prescribed by the guidelines, the Office of Thrift Supervision may require the institution to submit an acceptable plan to achieve compliance with the standard.

Transactions with Related Parties. Ocean City Home Banks authority to engage in transactions with affiliates
(e.g., any entity that controls or is under common control with Ocean City Home Bank including Ocean Shore Holding and its other subsidiaries) is limited by federal law. The aggregate amount of covered transactions with any individual
affiliate is limited to 10% of the capital and surplus of the savings association. The aggregate amount of covered transactions with all affiliates is limited to 20% of the savings associations capital and surplus. Certain transactions with
affiliates are required to be secured by collateral in an amount and of a type specified by federal law. The purchase of low quality assets from affiliates is generally prohibited. Transactions with affiliates must generally be on terms and under
circumstances that are at least as favorable to the association as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with non-affiliated companies. In addition, savings associations are prohibited from lending to any affiliate that is engaged
in activities that are not permissible for bank holding companies and no savings association may purchase the securities of any affiliate other than a subsidiary.

The Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 generally prohibits loans by Ocean Shore Holding to its executive officers and directors. However, the law contains a specific exception for loans by a depository
institution to its executive officers and directors in compliance with federal banking laws. Under such laws, Ocean City Home Banks authority to extend credit to executive officers, directors and 10% shareholders (insiders), as
well as entities such persons control, is limited. The laws restrict both the individual and aggregate amount of loans that Ocean City Home Bank may make to insiders based, in part, on Ocean City Home Banks capital position and requires that
certain board approval procedures be followed. Such loans are required to be made on terms substantially the same as those offered to unaffiliated individuals and not involve more than the normal risk of repayment. There

is an exception for loans made pursuant to a benefit or compensation program that is widely available to all employees of the institution and does not give preference to insiders over other
employees. Loans to executive officers are subject to additional limitations based on the type of loan involved.

Enforcement.The Office of Thrift Supervision has primary enforcement responsibility over savings associations and has the authority to bring actions against the institution and all institution-affiliated parties, including
stockholders, and any attorneys, appraisers and accountants who knowingly or recklessly participate in wrongful action likely to have an adverse effect on an insured institution. Formal enforcement action may range from the issuance of a capital
directive or cease and desist order to removal of officers and/or directors to institution of receivership, conservatorship or termination of deposit insurance. Civil penalties cover a wide range of violations and can amount to $25,000 per day, or
even $1 million per day in especially egregious cases. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation has the authority to recommend to the Director of the Office of Thrift Supervision that enforcement action be taken with respect to a particular savings
association. If action is not taken by the Director, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation has authority to take such action under certain circumstances. Federal law also establishes criminal penalties for certain violations.

Assessments. Savings associations are required to pay assessments to the Office of Thrift Supervision to fund the
agencys operations. The general assessments, paid on a semi-annual basis (including consolidated subsidiaries), are computed based upon the savings associations total assets, financial condition and complexity of its portfolio. The OTS
assessments paid by Ocean City Home Bank for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 totaled $175,000.

Federal Home Loan Bank System

Ocean City Home Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank System, which consists of 12 regional Federal Home Loan
Banks. The Federal Home Loan Bank provides a central credit facility primarily for member institutions. Ocean City Home Bank, as a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank, is required to acquire and hold shares of capital stock in that Federal Home
Loan Bank. Ocean City Home Bank was in compliance with this requirement with an investment in Federal Home Loan Bank stock at December 31, 2009 of $6.1 million.

The Federal Home Loan Banks have been required to provide funds for the resolution of insolvent thrifts in the late 1980s and contribute funds for affordable housing programs. These and similar
requirements could reduce the amount of dividends that the Federal Home Loan Banks pay to their members and result in the Federal Home Loan Banks imposing a higher rate of interest on advances to their members. If dividends were reduced, or interest
on future Federal Home Loan Bank advances increased, Ocean City Home Banks net interest income would likely also be reduced.

Federal
Reserve System

The Federal Reserve Board regulations require savings associations to maintain non-interest earning
reserves against their transaction accounts (primarily Negotiable Order of Withdrawal (NOW) and regular checking accounts). For 2009, the regulations provided that reserves be maintained against aggregate transaction accounts as follows: a 3%
reserve ratio was assessed on net transaction accounts up to and including $44.4 million; a 10% reserve ratio was applied above $44.4 million. The first $10.3 million of otherwise reservable balances were exempted from the reserve requirements.
These amounts are adjusted annually and, for 2010, require a 3% ratio for up to $55.2 million and an exemption of $10.7 million. Ocean City Home Bank complies with the foregoing requirements.

In October 2008, the Federal Reserve Board began paying interest on certain reserve balances.

Regulatory Restructuring Legislation

The Obama Administration has proposed, and the House of Representatives and Senate are currently considering, legislation that would
restructure the regulation of depository institutions. Proposals range from the merger of the Office of Thrift Supervision with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, which regulates national banks, to the creation of an independent federal
agency that would assume the regulatory responsibilities of the Office of Thrift Supervision, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and Federal Reserve Board. The federal savings association charter would
be eliminated and federal associations would be required to become banks under some proposals, although others would grandfather existing charters such as that of Ocean City Home Bank. Savings and loan holding companies would become regulated as
bank holding companies under some proposals. Also proposed is the creation of a new federal agency to administer and enforce consumer and fair lending laws, a function that is now performed by the depository institution regulators. The federal
preemption of state laws currently accorded federally chartered depository institutions would be reduced under certain proposals as well.

Enactment of any of these proposals would revise the regulatory structure imposed on Ocean City Home Bank, which could result in more stringent regulation. At this time, management has no way of
predicting the contents of any final legislation, or whether any legislation will be enacted at all.

|ITEM 1A. | RISK FACTORS
|-------- | ------------

A continuation of recent
turmoil in the financial markets could have an adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.

Beginning in 2008, United States and global financial markets have experienced severe disruption and volatility, and general economic conditions have declined significantly. Adverse developments in credit quality, asset values and revenue
opportunities throughout the financial services industry, as well as general uncertainty regarding the economic, industry and regulatory environment, have had a marked negative impact on the industry. Dramatic declines in the U.S. housing market
over the past two years, with falling home prices, increasing foreclosures and increasing unemployment, have negatively affected the credit performance of mortgage loans and resulted in significant write-downs of asset values by many financial
institutions. The United States and the governments of other countries have taken steps to try to stabilize the financial system, including investing in financial institutions, and have also been working to design and implement programs to improve
general economic conditions. The U.S. Department of the Treasury created the Capital Purchase Program under the Troubled Asset Relief Program, pursuant to which the Treasury Department provided additional capital to participating financial
institutions through the purchase of preferred stock or other securities. Other measures include homeowner relief that encourages loan restructuring and modification; the establishment of significant liquidity and credit facilities for financial
institutions and investment banks; the lowering of the federal funds rate; regulatory action against short selling practices; a temporary guaranty program for money market funds; the establishment of a commercial paper funding facility to provide
back-stop liquidity to commercial paper issuers; and coordinated international efforts to address illiquidity and other weaknesses in the banking sector. Notwithstanding the actions of the United States and other governments, there can be no
assurances that these efforts will be successful in restoring industry, economic or market conditions to their previous levels and that they will not result in adverse unintended consequences. Factors that could continue to pressure financial
services companies, including Ocean Shore Holding, are numerous and include (1) worsening credit quality, leading among other things to increases in loan losses and reserves, (2) continued or worsening disruption and volatility in
financial markets, leading among other things to continuing reductions in asset values, (3) capital and liquidity concerns regarding financial institutions generally, (4) limitations resulting from or imposed in connection with
governmental actions intended to stabilize or provide additional regulation of the financial system, or (5) recessionary conditions that are deeper or last longer than currently anticipated.

The current economic recession could result in increases in our level of non-performing loans and/or reduce demand for our products and services, which
would lead to lower revenue, higher loan losses and lower earnings.

Our business activities and earnings are affected by
general business conditions in the United States and in our local market area. These conditions include short-term and long-term interest rates, inflation, unemployment levels, monetary supply, consumer confidence and spending, fluctuations in both
debt and equity capital markets, and the strength of the economy in the United States generally and in our market area in particular. The national economy has recently experienced general economic downturns, with rising unemployment levels, declines
in real estate values and an erosion in consumer confidence. At the onset of the national downturn, New Jersey and our local market area did not experience a significant downturn. However, as the downturn has persisted, our local economy is
mirroring the overall economy. A prolonged or more severe economic downturn, continued elevated levels of unemployment, further declines in the values of real estate, or other events that affect household and/or corporate incomes could impair the
ability of our borrowers to repay their loans in accordance with their terms. Nearly all of our loans are secured by real estate or made to businesses in Atlantic or Cape May Counties in New Jersey. As a result of this concentration, a prolonged or
more severe downturn in the local economy, which is heavily dependent on the gaming and tourism industries, could result in significant increases in nonperforming loans, which would negatively impact our interest income and result in higher
provisions for loan losses, which would hurt our earnings. The economic downturn could also result in reduced demand for credit or fee-based products and services, which would hurt our revenues.

##### Table of Contents

Our emphasis on residential mortgage loans exposes us to a risk of loss due to a decline in property
values.

At December 31, 2009, $521.4 million, or 78.5%, of our loan portfolio consisted of one- to four-family
residential mortgage loans, and $60.7 million, or 9.1%, of our loan portfolio consisted of home equity loans. Recent declines in the housing market have resulted in declines in real estate values in our market areas. These declines in real estate
values could cause some of our mortgage and home equity loans to be inadequately collateralized, which would expose us to a greater risk of loss in the event that we seek to recover on defaulted loans by selling the real estate collateral. Because
of our location on the South Jersey shore, many of the properties securing our residential mortgages are second homes or rental properties. At December 31, 2009, 40.0% of our one- to four-family mortgage loans were secured by second homes and
10.4% were secured by rental properties. These loans generally are considered to be more risky than loans secured by the borrowers permanent residence, since the borrower is typically dependent upon rental income to meet debt service
requirements, in the case of a rental property, and when in financial difficulty is more likely to make payments on the loan secured by the borrowers primary residence before a vacation home.

Commercial lending may expose us to increased lending risks.

At December 31, 2009, $75.6 million, or 11.4%, of our loan portfolio consisted of commercial and multi-family real estate loans, commercial construction loans and commercial business loans. These
types of loans generally expose a lender to greater risk of non-payment and loss than one- to four-family residential mortgage loans because repayment of the loans often depends on the successful operation of the property and the income stream of
the borrowers. Such loans typically involve larger loan balances to single borrowers or groups of related borrowers compared to one- to four-family residential mortgage loans. Also, many of our commercial borrowers have more than one loan
outstanding with us. Consequently, an adverse development with respect to one loan or one credit relationship can expose us to a significantly greater risk of loss compared to an adverse development with respect to a one- to four-family residential
mortgage loan.

Higher loan losses could require us to increase our allowance for loan losses through a charge to earnings.

When we loan money we incur the risk that our borrowers do not repay their loans. We reserve for loan losses by establishing an allowance
through a charge to earnings. The amount of this allowance is based on our assessment of loan losses inherent in our loan portfolio. The process for determining the amount of the allowance is critical to our financial results and condition. It
requires subjective and complex judgments about the future, including forecasts of economic or market conditions that might impair the ability of our borrowers to repay their loans. We might underestimate the loan losses inherent in our loan
portfolio and have loan losses in excess of the amount reserved. We might increase the allowance because of changing economic conditions. For example, in a rising interest rate environment, borrowers with adjustable-rate loans could see their
payments increase. There may be a significant increase in the number of borrowers who are unable or unwilling to repay their loans, resulting in our charging off more loans and increasing our allowance. In addition, when real estate values decline,
the potential severity of loss on a real estate-secured loan can increase significantly, especially in the case of loans with high combined loan-to-value ratios. The recent decline in the national economy and the local economies of the areas in
which our loans are concentrated could result in an increase in loan delinquencies, foreclosures or repossessions resulting in increased charge-off amounts and the need for additional loan loss provisions in future periods. In addition, our
determination as to the amount of our allowance for loan losses is subject to review by our primary regulator, the Office of Thrift Supervision, as part of its examination process, which may result in the establishment of an additional allowance
based upon the judgment of the Office of Thrift Supervision after a review of the information available at the time of its examination. Our allowance for loan losses amounted to 0.52% of total loans outstanding and 188.4% of nonperforming loans at
December 31, 2009. Our allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2009, may not be sufficient to cover future loan losses. A large loss could deplete the allowance and require increased provisions to replenish the allowance, which would
negatively affect earnings.

##### Table of Contents

If we conclude that the decline in value of any of our investment securities is other than temporary, we
are required to write down the value of that security through a charge to earnings.

We evaluate our securities portfolio
for other-than-temporary impairment throughout the year. Each investment that has a fair value less than book value is reviewed on a quarterly basis. An impairment charge is recorded against individual securities if managements review
concludes that the decline in value is other than temporary. As of December 31, 2009, our investment portfolio included eight corporate debt securities with a book value of $8.2 million and an estimated fair value of $5.7 million. Changes in
the expected cash flows of these securities and/or prolonged price declines may result in our concluding in future periods that the impairment of these securities is other than temporary, which would require a charge to earnings to write down the
value of these securities. At December 31, 2009, we had an investment of $6.1 million in capital stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York. If the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York is unable to meet minimum regulatory capital
requirements or is required to aid the remaining Federal Home Loan Banks, our holding of Federal Home Loan Bank stock may be determined to be other than temporarily impaired and may require a charge to our earnings, which could have a material
impact on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Any charges for other-than-temporary impairment would not impact cash flow, tangible capital or liquidity.

Increased and/or special FDIC assessments will hurt our earnings.

Beginning in late 2008, the economic environment caused higher levels of bank failures, which dramatically increased FDIC resolution costs and led to a significant reduction in the Deposit Insurance Fund. As a result, the FDIC has
significantly increased the initial base assessment rates paid by financial institutions for deposit insurance. The base assessment rate was increased by seven basis points (7 cents for every $100 of deposits) for the first quarter of 2009.
Effective April 1, 2009, initial base assessment rates were changed to range from 12 basis points to 45 basis points across all risk categories with possible adjustments to these rates based on certain debt-related components. These increases
in the base assessment rate have increased our deposit insurance costs and negatively impacted our earnings. In addition, in May 2009, the FDIC imposed a special assessment on all insured institutions due to recent bank and savings association
failures. The emergency assessment amounted to 5 basis points on each institutions assets minus Tier 1 capital as of June 30, 2009, subject to a maximum equal to 10 basis points times the institutions assessment base. In lieu of
imposing additional special assessments, the FDIC required that all institutions prepay their assessments for the fourth quarter of 2009 and all of 2010, 2011 and 2012. The estimated assessments, which include an assumed annual assessment base
increase of 5%, were recorded as a prepaid expense asset as of December 31, 2009. As of December 31, 2009, and each quarter thereafter, a charge to earnings will be recorded for each regular assessment with an offsetting credit to the
prepaid asset.

Changes in interest rates could reduce our net interest income and earnings.

Our net interest income is the interest we earn on loans and investments less the interest we pay on our deposits and borrowings. Our net
interest spread is the difference between the yield we earn on our assets and the interest rate we pay for deposits and our other sources of funding. Changes in interest ratesup or downcould adversely affect our net interest spread and,
as a result, our net interest income and net interest margin. Although the yield we earn on our assets and our funding costs tend to move in the same direction in response to changes in interest rates, one can rise or fall faster than the other,
causing our net interest margin to expand or contract. Our liabilities tend to be shorter in duration than our assets, so they may adjust faster in response to changes in interest rates. As a result, when interest rates rise, our funding costs may
rise faster than the yield we earn on our assets, causing our net interest margin to contract until the yield catches up. This contraction could be more severe following a prolonged period of lower interest rates, as a larger proportion of our fixed
rate residential loan portfolio will have been originated at those lower rates and borrowers may be more reluctant or unable to sell their homes in a higher interest rate environment. Changes in the slope of the yield curveor the
spread between short-term and long-term interest ratescould also reduce our net interest margin. Normally, the yield

curve is upward sloping, meaning short-term rates are lower than long-term rates. Because our liabilities tend to be shorter in duration than our assets, when the yield curve flattens or even
inverts, we could experience pressure on our net interest margin as our cost of funds increases relative to the yield we can earn on our assets.

Participation in the U.S. Treasurys Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program will hurt our earnings.

As
part of its regulatory initiatives to restore confidence and encourage liquidity in the banking system, the FDIC implemented the Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program (TLGP). As part of the TLGP, the FDIC will guaranty certain newly
issued senior unsecured debt of certain financial institutions issued on or before October 31, 2009. In addition, the FDIC will also provide full coverage of non-interest bearing deposit transaction accounts until June 30, 2010. Eligible
entities that did not opt out of participation in TLGP were automatically considered participants in the program. Ocean City Home Bank and Ocean Shore Holding are participants in the TLGP. Participants in the deposit portion of the TLGP are
assessed, on a quarterly basis, an annualized fee of 10 basis points on balances of non-interest bearing transaction accounts that exceed the existing deposit insurance limit of $250,000. Beginning January 1, 2010, the fee increased to 15 basis
points for most institutions. These additional deposit insurance assessments will reduce our earnings. Participants issuing debt under the TLGP will be charged an annualized fee based on the amount and term of the debt issued. Ocean Shore Holding
did not issue any FDIC-guaranteed debt under the TLGP.

Strong competition within our market area could reduce our profits and slow growth.

We face intense competition both in making loans and attracting deposits. This competition has made it more difficult for
us to make new loans and at times has forced us to offer higher deposit rates. Price competition for loans and deposits might result in us earning less on our loans and paying more on our deposits, which would reduce net interest income. Competition
also makes it more difficult to grow loans and deposits. As of June 30, 2009, which is the most recent date for which information is available, we held 6.37% of the deposits in Atlantic County, New Jersey, which was the 7th largest share of
deposits out of 16 financial institutions with offices in the county, and 8.27% of the deposits in Cape May County, New Jersey, which was the 6th largest share of deposits out of 14 financial institutions with offices in the county. Some of the
institutions with which we compete have substantially greater resources and lending limits than we have and may offer services that we do not provide. We expect competition to increase in the future as a result of legislative, regulatory and
technological changes and the continuing trend of consolidation in the financial services industry. Our profitability depends upon our continued ability to compete successfully in our market area.

We operate in a highly regulated environment and we may be adversely affected by changes in laws and regulations.

We are subject to extensive regulation, supervision and examination by the Office of Thrift Supervision, our primary federal regulator, and
by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, as our insurer of our deposits. Such regulation and supervision governs the activities in which an institution and its holding company may engage and are intended primarily for the protection of the
insurance fund and the depositors and borrowers of Ocean City Home Bank rather than for holders of our common stock. Regulatory authorities have extensive discretion in their supervisory and enforcement activities, including the imposition of
restrictions on our operations, the classification of our assets and determination of the level of our allowance for loan losses. Any change in such regulation and oversight, whether in the form of regulatory policy, regulations, legislation or
supervisory action, may have a material impact on our operations.

Proposed regulatory reform may have a material impact on our operations.

The Obama Administration has published a comprehensive regulatory reform plan that is intended to modernize and protect
the integrity of the United States financial system and has offered proposed legislation to accomplish these reforms. The Presidents plan contains several elements that would have a direct effect on

Ocean Shore Holding and Ocean City Home Bank. Under the proposed legislation, the federal thrift charter and the Office of Thrift Supervision would be eliminated and all companies that control an
insured depository institution must register as a bank holding company. Existing federal thrifts, such as Ocean City Home Bank, would become a national bank or could choose to adopt a state charter. Registration as a bank holding company would
represent a significant change, as there currently exist significant differences between savings and loan holding company and bank holding company supervision and regulation. For example, the Federal Reserve imposes leverage and risk-based capital
requirements on bank holding companies whereas the Office of Thrift Supervision does not impose any capital requirements on savings and loan holding companies. The Administration has also proposed the creation of a new federal agency, the Consumer
Financial Protection Agency, that would be dedicated to protecting consumers in the financial products and services market. The creation of this agency could result in new regulatory requirements and raise the cost of regulatory compliance. In
addition, legislation stemming from the reform plan could require changes in regulatory capital requirements, loan loss provisioning practices, and compensation practices. If implemented, the foregoing regulatory reforms may have a material impact
on our operations. However, because the final legislation may differ significantly from the reform plan proposed by the President, we cannot determine the specific impact of regulatory reform at this time.

|ITEM 7. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION
|------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

General Overview

We conduct
community banking activities by accepting deposits and making loans in our market area. Our lending products include residential mortgage loans, commercial loans and mortgages, and home equity and other consumer loans. We also maintain an investment
portfolio consisting primarily of mortgage-backed securities to manage our liquidity and interest rate risk. Our loan and investment portfolios are funded with deposits as well as collateralized borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New
York.

Income.Our primary source of pre-tax income is net interest income. Net interest income is the
difference between interest income, which is the income that we earn on our loans and investments, and interest expense, which is the interest that we pay on our deposits and borrowings. Our net interest income is affected by a variety of factors,
including the mix of interest-earning assets in our portfolio and changes in levels of interest rates. Growth in net interest income is dependent upon our ability to prudently manage the balance sheet for growth, combined with how successfully we
maintain or increase net interest margin, which is net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets.

A
secondary source of income is non-interest income, or other income, which is revenue that we receive from providing products and services. The majority of our non-interest income generally comes from service charges (mostly from service charges on
deposit accounts). We also earn income on bank-owned life insurance and receive commissions for various services. In some years, we recognize income from the sale of securities and real estate owned.

Allowance for Loan Losses.The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable losses inherent in the
loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date. We evaluate the need to establish allowances against losses on loans on a monthly basis. When additional allowances are necessary, a provision for loan losses is charged to earnings.

Expenses.The noninterest expenses we incur in operating our business consist primarily of expenses for salaries and employee
benefits and for occupancy and equipment. We also incur expenses for items such as professional services, advertising, office supplies, insurance, telephone, and postage.

Our largest noninterest expense is for salaries and employee benefits, which consist primarily of salaries and wages paid to our employees, payroll taxes, and expenses for health insurance, retirement
plans and other employee benefits.

Occupancy and equipment expenses, which are the fixed and variable costs of buildings and
equipment, consist primarily of depreciation charges, ATM and data processing expenses, furniture and equipment expenses, maintenance, real estate taxes and costs of utilities. Depreciation of premises and equipment is computed using the
straight-line method based on the useful lives of the related assets, which range from three to 40 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the useful life of the asset or the term of the lease.

Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation assessments are a specified percentage of assessable deposits, depending on the risk characteristics
of the institution. Due to losses incurred by the Deposit Insurance Fund in 2008 from failed institutions, and anticipated future losses, the FDIC has increased its assessment rates for 2009 and charged a special assessment to increase the balance
of the insurance fund. Our special assessment amounted to $324,000.

Market Overview

The Company continues to operate in a challenging and uncertain economic environment, including uncertainty in national and local conditions.
The market dislocations, which began in 2007 and continue today, have brought unprecedented turmoil to the financial markets. Credit conditions have deteriorated rapidly and

financial markets have experienced widespread illiquidity and elevated levels of volatility as concerns over the future of the economy grow, consumer confidence declines, unemployment rises, home
values decline, credit availability contracts, and companies report lower corporate earnings. The U.S. rate of unemployment continued to increase during 2009, reaching its highest level in over fifteen years at 10.1% in October 2009. U.S. consumer
spending also continued to tighten as 2009 capped off the worse year since 1961 as the full year rose just 0.2%. The National Bureau of Economic Research officially declared that the U.S. was in a recession.

At the onset of the national economic downturn, New Jersey did not experience a significant downturn. However, as the downturn persists, New
Jersey is mirroring the overall economy. The companies experiencing the greatest impact are those closely associated with residential real estate and consumer spending. While we continue to focus on the credit quality of our customers  closely
monitoring the financial status of borrowers throughout our markets, gathering information, working on early detection of potential problems, taking preemptive steps where necessary and doing the analysis required to maintain adequate
reservesevidence of these economic challenges is reflected in the increased level of classified assets, nonperforming loans and levels of charge-offs in our loan portfolio.

There have been several high profile failures and takeovers of major market participants including Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. In July 2008,
the U.S. Government passed the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008, which was designed primarily to address the sub-prime mortgage crisis and authorized the Federal Housing Administration to guarantee up to $300 billion in new 30-year,
fixed-rate mortgages for sub-prime borrowers, if lenders write-down principal loans balances to 90 percent of current appraisal value. This Act was intended to restore confidence in Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac by strengthening regulation and
injecting capital into these entities. Although we have no exposure to sub-prime mortgages or any material equity investments in Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, we maintain a portfolio of mortgage backed securities issued by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac and
continue to monitor those market segments that may be impacted by the significantly wider credit spreads resulting from the market turmoil.

In October 2008, the U.S. Government passed the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (EESA) which provided for the implementation of the Troubled Asset Relief Plan (TARP).
The TARPs primary purpose is to remove troubled assets from the balance sheets of financial institutions. Under the authority provided by the EESA, the U.S. Treasury created the voluntary Capital Purchase Program, which provides direct equity
investment by the U.S. Treasury in preferred stock of qualified financial institutions. The legislations goal is to provide market stability, strengthen financial institutions and enhance market liquidity. Because our capital ratios are
strong, the Board of Directors concluded that if we were going to raise additional capital, it was in the best interests of our shareholders to accomplish that through a second step conversion, which was completed on December 18, 2009. See
Liquidity and Capital Resources and note 13 to the notes of the audited consolidated financial statements.

As part of the regulatory initiatives, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) implemented the Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program (TLGP) to strengthen confidence and encourage liquidity in the banking
system. As part of the TLGP, the FDIC guaranteed certain newly issued senior unsecured debt of banks, thrifts and certain holding companies issued on or before June 30, 2009. In addition, the FDIC will also provide full coverage of non-interest
bearing deposit transaction accounts until June 30, 2010. Initially, these programs were provided at no cost and entities had to choose to opt out. An entity that chose not to opt out of either or both programs became a participating entity and
will be assessed fees for participation. Any eligible entity that has not chosen to opt out of the full coverage on the non-interest bearing transaction accounts will be assessed, on a quarterly basis, an annualized 10 bps fee on balances in
noninterest-bearing transaction accounts that exceed the existing deposit insurance limit of $250,000. We are participating in this program.

The economic environment has caused higher levels of bank failures, which have dramatically increased FDIC resolution costs and led to a significant reduction in the Deposit Insurance Fund
(DIF). To ensure that the deposit insurance system remains sound and in an effort to restore the reserve ratio of the DIF to at least

1.15 percent of estimated insured deposits as required under the FDICs Restoration Plan, the FDIC increased its assessments and imposed a special assessment, which was collected on
September 30, 2009.

On February 17, 2009, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) was
enacted. ARRA is intended to provide a stimulus to the U.S. economy in the wake of the economic downturn brought about by the sub-prime mortgage crisis and the resulting credit crunch. ARRA includes federal tax cuts, expansion of unemployment
benefits and other social welfare provisions, and domestic spending in education, healthcare, and infrastructure, including the energy structure. The new law also includes numerous non-economic recovery related items, including a limitation on
executive compensation in federally aided banks.

As a result of the market uncertainty and the overall weakened economic
conditions, the Federal Reserve began lowering the Fed Funds Rate in 2007, and continued to do so throughout 2008. The Fed Funds Rate decreased from 4.25% at December 31, 2007 to a range of 0.00%-0.25% at December 31, 2009 and market
expectations are that it will remain relatively low during 2010. Though the Federal Reserve has attempted to orchestrate short-term rate reductions, loan and deposit pricing in our market place has not always followed the declining trend as deposit
pricing remains intensely competitive, partially offset by slightly wider spreads on loans and investments. We began to experience interest rate spread expansion as a result of a large percentage of fixed-rate loans in our portfolio, which remained
consistent with the previous year while the rates on the Companys deposit liabilities declined. We expect this trend to continue into 2010.

The deterioration in the overall economy will continue to affect the markets in which we and our customers do business and may adversely impact our results in the future, depending upon the duration and
severity of such conditions. The following discussion provides further detail on our financial condition and results of operations at and for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Critical Accounting Policies, Judgements and Estimates

The discussion and
analysis of the financial condition and results of operations are based on our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. The preparation of
these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of income and expenses. We consider
the accounting policies discussed below to be critical accounting policies. The estimates and assumptions that we use are based on historical experience and various other factors and are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual
results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions, resulting in a change that could have a material impact on the carrying value of our assets and liabilities and our results of operations.

Allowance for Loan Losses.The allowance for loan losses is the amount estimated by management as necessary to cover
losses inherent in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. The allowance is established through the provision for loan losses, which is charged to income. Determining the amount of the allowance for loan losses necessarily involves a high
degree of judgment. Among the material estimates required to establish the allowance are the following: loss exposure at default; the amount and timing of future cash flows on impacted loans; value of collateral; and determination of loss factors to
be applied to the various elements of the portfolio. All of these estimates are susceptible to significant change. Although we believe that we use the best information available to establish the allowance for loan losses, future adjustments to the
allowance may be necessary if economic conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the evaluation. In addition, the Office of Thrift Supervision, as an integral part of its examination process, periodically reviews our
allowance for loan losses. Such agency may require us to recognize adjustments to the allowance based on its judgments about information available to it at the time of its examination. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level that
management considers adequate to provide for estimated losses and impairment based upon an evaluation of known and inherent risk in the loan portfolio. Loan impairment is evaluated based on the fair value of collateral or estimated net realizable
value. A provision for loan losses is charged to operations based on



27

##### Table of Contents

managements evaluation of the estimated losses that have been incurred in the Companys loan portfolio. It is the policy of management to provide for losses on unidentified loans in
its portfolio in addition to classified loans.

Management monitors its allowance for loan losses monthly and makes
adjustments to the allowance through the provision for loan losses as economic conditions and other pertinent factors indicate. The quarterly review and adjustment of the qualitative factors employed in the allowance methodology and the updating of
historic loss experience allow for timely reaction to emerging conditions and trends. In this context, a series of qualitative factors are used in a methodology as a measurement of how current circumstances are affecting the loan portfolio.
Included in these qualitative factors are:



| |  |  | Levels of past due, classified and non-accrual loans, troubled debt restructurings and modifications;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Nature and volume of loans;
| | - |  | ---------------------------



| |  |  | Changes in lending policies and procedures, underwriting standards, collections, charge-offs and recoveries, and for commercial loans, the level of
loans being approved with exceptions to policy;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Experience, ability and depth of management and staff;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | National and local economic and business conditions, including various market segments;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Quality of our loan review system and degree of Board oversight;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Concentrations of credit by industry, geography and collateral type, with a specific emphasis on real estate, and changes in levels of such
concentrations; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Effect of external factors, including the deterioration of collateral values, on the level of estimated credit losses in the current portfolio.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In determining the allowance for loan losses, management has established both specific and general pooled
allowances. Values assigned to the qualitative factors and those developed from historic loss experience provide a dynamic basis for the calculation of reserve factors for both pass-rated loans (general pooled allowance) and those criticized and
classified loans without reserves (specific allowance). The amount of the specific allowance is determined through a loan-by-loan analysis of non-performing loans. Loans not individually reviewed are evaluated as a group using reserve factor
percentages based on qualitative and quantitative factors described above. In determining the appropriate level of the general pooled allowance, management makes estimates based on internal risk ratings, which take into account such factors as debt
service coverage, loan-to-value ratios, and external factors. If a loan is identified as impaired and is collateral dependant, an appraisal is obtained to provide a base line in determining whether the carrying amount of the loan exceeds the net
realizable value. We recognize impairment through a provision estimate or a charge-off is recorded when management determines we will not collect 100% of a loan based on foreclosure of the collateral, less cost to sell the property, or the present
value of expected cash flows.

As changes in our operating environment occur and as recent loss experience fluctuates, the
factors for each category of loan based on type and risk rating will change to reflect current circumstances and the quality of the loan portfolio. Given that the components of the allowance are based partially on historical losses and on risk
rating changes in response to recent events, required reserves may trail the emergence of any unforeseen deterioration in credit quality.

Other Than Temporary Impairment. In April 2009, the accounting regulations in the United States changed the existing impairment guidelines with respect to debt securities requiring the
Company to assess whether the credit loss existed by considering whether (1) the Company has the intent to sell the security, (2) it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before recovery, or (3) it does
not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security. The guidance allows the Company to bifurcate the impact on securities where impairment in value was deemed to be other than temporary between the component representing credit



28

##### Table of Contents

loss and the component representing loss related to other factors, when the security is not otherwise intended to be sold or is required to be sold. The portion of the fair value decline
attributable to credit loss must be recognized through a charge to earnings. The credit component is determined by comparing the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected, discounted at the rate in effect before recognizing any OTTI,
with the amortized cost basis of the debt security. The Company uses the cash flow expected to be realized from the security, which includes assumptions about interest rates, timing and severity of defaults, estimates of potential recoveries, the
cash flow distribution from the bond indenture and other factors, then applies a discount rate equal to the effective yield of the security. The difference between the present value of the expected cash flows and the amortized book value is
considered a credit loss. The fair market value of the security is determined using the same expected cash flows, where market-based observable inputs are not available; the discount rate is a rate the Company determines from open market and other
sources as appropriate for the security. The fair value is based on market prices or market-based observable inputs when available. The difference between the fair market value and the credit loss is recognized in other comprehensive income.
Additional information regarding our accounting for investment securities is included in notes 2 and 3 to the notes to consolidated financial statements.

Deferred Income Taxes. We account for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes.FASB ASC 740 requires the recording of deferred income taxes that reflect the net tax
effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the
future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. If current available information raises doubt as to the realization of the
deferred tax assets, a valuation allowance is established. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or
settled. We exercise significant judgment in evaluating the amount and timing of recognition of the resulting tax liabilities and assets. These judgments require us to make projections of future taxable income as well as judgments about availability
of capital gains. The judgments and estimates we make in determining our deferred tax assets, which are inherently subjective, are reviewed on a continual basis as regulatory and business factors change. Any reduction in estimated future taxable
income may require us to record an additional valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets. Further, an inability to employ a qualifying tax strategy to utilize our deferred tax asset arising from capital losses may give rise to an additional
valuation allowance. An increase in the valuation allowance would result in additional income tax expense in the period, which would negatively affect earnings. FASB ASC 740 prescribes a minimum probability threshold that a tax position must meet
before a financial statement benefit is recognized. When applicable, we recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes in the consolidated income statement. Assessment of uncertain tax
positions under FASB ASC 740 requires careful consideration of the technical merits of a position based on managements analysis of tax regulations and interpretations. Significant judgment may be involved in applying the requirements of
FASB ASC 740.

Our adherence to FASB ASC 740 may result in increased volatility in quarterly and annual effective income tax
rates, as FASB ASC 740 requires that any change in judgment or change in measurement of a tax position taken in a prior period be recognized as a discrete event in the period in which it occurs. Factors that could impact managements judgment
include changes in income, tax laws and regulations, and tax planning strategies.

Fair Value Measurement.The
Company accounts for fair value measurement in accordance with FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.FASB ASC 820 establishes a framework for measuring fair value. FASB ASC 820 defines fair value as the
price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, emphasizing that fair value is a market-based measurement and not an entity-specific
measurement. FASB ASC 820 clarifies the application of fair value measurement in a market that is not active. FASB ASC 820 also includes additional factors for determining whether there has been a significant decrease in market activity,
affirms the objective of fair value when a market is not active, eliminates the presumption that all transactions are not orderly unless

proven otherwise, and requires an entity to disclose inputs and valuation techniques, and changes therein, used to measure fair value. FASB ASC 820 addresses the valuation techniques used to
measure fair value. These valuation techniques include the market approach, income approach and cost approach. The market approach uses prices or relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or
liabilities. The income approach involves converting future amounts to a single present amount. The measurement is valued based on current market expectations about those future amounts. The cost approach is based on the amount that currently would
be required to replace the service capacity of the asset.

FASB ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes
the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to
unobservable inputs (Level 3). A financial instruments categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the instruments fair value measurement. The three levels within the
fair value hierarchy are described as follows:



| |  |  | Level 1Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 2Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 2 inputs include: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset
or liability; and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 3Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or
liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value
requires significant management judgment or estimation.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We measure financial assets and liabilities at fair
value in accordance with FASB ASC 820. These measurements involve various valuation techniques and models, which involve inputs that are observable, when available, and include the following significant financial instruments: investment securities
available for sale and derivative financial instruments. The following is a summary of valuation techniques utilized by us for our significant financial assets and liabilities which are valued on a recurring basis.

Investment securities available for sale. Where quoted prices for identical securities are available in an active market, securities
are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated using quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or discounted cash flows based on observable market
inputs and are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. In certain cases where there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs to the valuation, securities are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 3
market value measurements include an internally developed discounted cash flow model combined with using market data points of similar securities with comparable credit ratings in addition to market yield curves with similar maturities in
determining the discount rate. In addition, significant estimates and unobservable inputs are required in the determination of Level 3 market value measurements. If actual results differ significantly from the estimates and inputs applied, it could
have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In addition, certain assets are measured at fair value on a
nonrecurring basis; that is, the instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment). We measure impaired loans, FHLB
stock and loans transferred into other real estate owned at fair value on a non-recurring basis.

We review and validate the
valuation techniques and models utilized for measuring financial assets and liabilities at least quarterly.

##### Table of Contents

The following table sets forth certain information at December 31, 2009 regarding the
dollar amount of loan principal repayments coming due during the periods indicated. The table does not include any estimate of prepayments, which significantly shorten the average life of all loans and may cause our actual repayment experience to
differ from that shown below. Demand loans having no stated schedule of repayments and no stated maturity are reported as due in one year or less.

Deposits.Our primary source of funds are retail deposit accounts held
primarily by individuals and businesses within our market area. We also actively solicit deposits from municipalities in our market area. Municipal deposit accounts differ from business accounts in that we pay interest on those deposits and we
pledge collateral (typically investment securities) with the New Jersey Department of Banking to secure the portion of the deposits that are not covered by federal deposit insurance. At December 31, 2009 and 2008, there were approximately $93.1
million and $66.8 million of such deposits.

Our deposit base is comprised of demand deposits, savings accounts and time
deposits. Deposits increased $81.5 million, or 17.9%, in 2009. The change in deposits consisted of increases in demand deposits of $51.2 million, savings accounts of $18.6 million and time deposits of $11.7 million.

We aggressively market checking and savings accounts, as these tend to provide longer-term customer relationships and a lower cost of
funding compared to time deposits. Due to our marketing efforts and sales efforts, we have been able to attract core deposits of 60.2% of total deposits at December 31, 2009, compared to 55.6% in 2008.

2009 vs.
2008. Net income increased $1.3 million, or 43.8%, in 2009 to $4.2 million. Net interest income increased $3.4 million, or 17.9%, in 2009 from 2008. Non-interest income increased $1.5 million, or 279.6%, to $2.0 million due primarily to a
decrease in other than temporary impairment charges of investment securities of $1.2 million in 2009 over 2008. Other expenses increased $1.9 million, or 13.1%, to $16.1 million in 2009 from 2008 due primarily to increased costs associated with the
opening of a new branch, increases in FDIC insurance, occupancy, data processing and salary expenses. Income taxes increased $822,000, or 45.9%, in 2009 from 2008 due primarily from increased taxable income.

2008 vs. 2007.Net income increased $139,000, or 4.9%, in 2009 to $2.9 million. Net interest income increased $3.7 million, or 24.4%,
in 2008 from 2007 while non-interest income decreased $2.1 million, or 80.0%, to $533,000 due primarily to other than temporary impairment charges of investment securities of $2.2 million in 2008. Other expenses increased $1.2 million, or 9.1%, to
$14.3 million in 2008 from 2007 due primarily to increased costs associated with the opening of a new branch, increases in FDIC insurance, occupancy, data processing and salary expenses. Income taxes increased $153,000, or 9.3%, in 2008 from 2007

Net Interest Income.

2009 vs. 2008.Net interest income increased $3.4 million, or 17.9%, to $22.2 million for 2009 from $18.8 million in 2008. The
increase in net interest income for 2009 was primarily attributable to interest earned on a higher volume of interest-earning loans and a lower costs of deposits and interest paid on borrowings offset by a decrease in interest income on investments.

Total interest and dividend income increased $1.3 million, or 3.6%, to $37.2 million for 2009, as growth in interest income
was enhanced by an increase in the average balance of loans partially offset by a decrease in the yield on earnings assets. Interest income on loans increased $2.2 million, or 6.6%, in 2009 as the average balance of the portfolio grew $70.6 million,
or 12.5%, offset by the average yield decrease of 31 basis points to 5.53%. The decrease in the average yield was the result of lower rates on new loans originated. Declining balances offset by a higher yield in the investment portfolio accounted
for the 27.7% decrease of $809,000 in interest income on investment securities in 2009. The average balance of the investment portfolio decreased $13.9 million, or 29.9%, in 2009, while the average yield increased 20 basis points to 6.50% as a
result of higher rates earned on the remainder of the portfolio. Income from other interest-earning assets decreased $70,000 as the Company had no other interest-earning assets in 2009.

interest paid declined $1.4 million on deposits and $663,000 on borrowings. The average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased $67.0 million, or 17.2%, in 2009 due to increases of $26.4 million in the average balance of interest-bearing
checking, $8.6 million in the average balance of savings accounts and $32.0 million in the average balance of certificates of deposit. The increase in the average balance of interest-bearing checking accounts during 2009 was due primarily to
increases in municipal interest-bearing checking of $15.3 million, consumer checking of $6.1 million and commercial sweep accounts of $4.5 million. The average interest rate paid on deposits decreased 69 basis points as a result of the prevailing
lower interest rate environment during 2009. Interest paid on borrowings decreased in 2009 as a decrease in the average balance of borrowings of $16.0 million, which was slightly offset by a higher average interest rate paid of 3 basis points. The
decrease in borrowed money resulted from increased deposits.

million, or 24.4%, to $18.8 million for 2008 from $15.1 million in 2007. The increase in net interest income for 2008 was primarily attributable to interest earned on a higher volume of interest-earning loans and a lower costs of deposits partially
offset by an increase in interest paid on borrowings.

$35.9 million for 2008, as growth in interest income was enhanced by an increase in the average balance of loans partially offset by a decrease in the yield on earnings assets. Interest income on loans increased $4.8 million, or 17.1%, in 2008 as
the average balance of the portfolio grew $95.7 million, or 20.4%, offset by the average yield decrease of 16 basis points to 5.84%. The decrease in the average yield was the result of lower rates on new loans originated. Declining balances offset
by a higher yield in the investment portfolio accounted for the 24.6% decrease of $950,000 in interest income on investment securities in 2008. The average balance of the investment portfolio decreased $18.4 million, or 28.4%, in 2008, while the
average yield increased 32 basis points to 6.30% as a result of higher rates earned on the remainder of the portfolio. The average balance of other interest-earning assets decreased $8.8 million while the yield decreased 312 basis points due to a
sharp decline in short term rates accounting for the decrease in income of $561,000.

Total interest expense decreased
$388,000, or 2.2%, to $17.1 million for 2008 as a decline in interest paid on deposits of $2.2 million was offset by an increase of $1.8 million in interest paid on borrowings. The average balance of interest-bearing deposits decreased $2.0 million,
or 0.5%, in 2008 due to decreases of $22.3 million in the average balance of interest-bearing checking and $3.5 million in the average balance of savings accounts offset by increases in the average balance of certificates of deposit of $23.8
million. The decrease in the average balance interest-bearing of checking accounts during 2008 was due primarily to the Company modifying a group of $31.8 million of checking products to non-interest bearing. The average interest rate paid on
deposits decreased 56 basis points as a result of the prevailing lower interest rate environment during 2008. Interest paid on borrowings increased in 2008 as an increase in the average balance of borrowings of $56.7 million was offset by a lower
average interest rate paid of 68 basis points. The increase in borrowed money was used to fund the increased loan demand in 2008.

Provision for Loan Losses.

2009 vs. 2008. Provision for loan losses increased $878,000 to $1.3 million in 2009 as compared to $373,000 in 2008. The increase in
the provision for loan losses was primarily to maintain a reserve level deemed appropriate by management in light of factors such as the level of non-performing loans, growth in the loan portfolio, level of charge-offs and the current economic
conditions.

2008 vs. 2007. Provision for loan losses increased $112,000 to $373,000 in 2008 from $261,000 in 2007. The
larger provision in 2008 reflected growth in the loan portfolio.

An analysis of the changes in the allowance for loan losses
is presented under Risk ManagementAnalysis and Determination of the Allowance for Loan Losses.

2009 vs. 2008. Total other expenses increased $1.9 million, or 13.1%, to $16.1 million in
2009 compared to $14.3 million in 2008. Increased personnel and occupancy costs associated with the opening of a new branch office in November of 2009 accounted for $112,000 in increased other expenses. In addition, excluding the costs associated
with the new branch, salaries and employee benefits increased $493,000 primarily due to increases in salary and employee benefits. FDIC insurance cost increased $663,000 on higher premiums and a one time special assessment of $324,000 in June of
2009. Occupancy, equipment and data processing expenses increased $475,000. Professional services and other operating expenses accounted for the remaining $176,000 increase due to normal activity.

2008 vs. 2007. Total other expenses increased $1.2 million, or 9.2%, to $14.3 million in 2008 compared to $13.1 million in 2007.
Increased personnel and occupancy costs associated with the opening of a new branch office in November of 2008 accounted for $131,000 in increased other expenses. In addition, excluding the costs associated with the new branch, salaries and employee
benefits increased $654,000 primarily due to increases in salary and employee benefits. FDIC insurance cost increased $72,000 on higher premiums. Occupancy, equipment and data processing expenses increased $253,000. Professional services and other

Income Taxes.

2009 vs. 2008.Income tax expense was $2.6 million for 2009 compared to $1.8 million for 2008. The effective
tax rate for 2008 was 38.3% compared to 38.0% for 2008. The increase was primarily due to an increase in taxable income for the year ended 2009 compared to 2008 and higher state income taxes as a result of non-deductible expenses related to
impairment of securities. We recorded a reduction of $119,000 in 2009 of a tax valuation allowance for charitable contributions carryover deduction resulting from an increase in actual taxable income over prior projections.

2008 vs. 2007.Income tax expense was $1.8 million for 2008 compared to $1.6 million for 2007. The effective tax rate for 2008 was
38.0% compared to 37.0% for 2007. The increase was primarily due to an

and costs for the periods indicated are derived by dividing income or expense by the average balances of assets or liabilities, respectively, for the periods presented. For purposes of this table, average balances have been calculated using the
average daily balances and nonaccrual loans are included in average balances only. Loan fees are included in interest income on loans and are insignificant. Interest income on loans and investment securities has not been calculated on a tax
equivalent basis because the impact would be insignificant.

Risk Management

Overview.Managing risk is an essential part of successfully managing a financial institution. Our most prominent risk exposures are credit risk, interest rate risk and market risk.
Credit risk is the risk of not collecting the interest and/or the principal balance of a loan or investment when it is due. Interest rate risk is the potential reduction of interest income as a result of changes in interest rates. Market risk arises
from fluctuations in interest rates that may result in changes in the values of financial instruments, such as available-for-sale securities that are accounted for on a mark-to-market basis. Other risks that we face are operational risks, liquidity
risks and reputation risk. Operational risks include risks related to fraud, regulatory compliance, processing errors, technology and disaster recovery. Liquidity risk is the possible inability to fund obligations to depositors, lenders or
borrowers. Reputation risk is the risk that negative publicity or press, whether true or not, could cause a decline in our customer base or revenue.

Credit Risk Management.Our strategy for credit risk management focuses on having well-defined credit policies and uniform underwriting criteria and providing prompt attention to
potential problem loans. Our strategy also emphasizes the origination of one- to four-family mortgage loans, which typically have lower default rates than other types of loans and are secured by collateral that generally holds its value better than
other types of collateral.

When a borrower fails to make a required loan payment, we take a number of steps to have the
borrower cure the delinquency and restore the loan to current status. We make initial contact with the borrower when the loan becomes 15 days past due. If payment is not then received by the 30th day of delinquency, additional letters and phone
calls generally are made. Generally, when the loan becomes 60 days past due, we send a letter notifying the borrower that we will commence foreclosure proceedings if the loan is not brought current within 30 days. Generally, when the loan becomes 90
days past due, we commence foreclosure proceedings against any real property that secures the loan or attempt to repossess any personal property that secures a consumer loan. If a foreclosure action is instituted and the loan is not brought current,
paid in full, or refinanced before the foreclosure sale, the real property securing the loan generally is sold at foreclosure. We may consider loan workout arrangements with certain borrowers under certain circumstances.

Management informs the board of directors monthly of the amount of loans delinquent more than 30 days, all loans in foreclosure and all
foreclosed and repossessed property that we own.

Analysis of Nonperforming and Classified Assets.We
consider repossessed assets and loans that are 90 days or more past due to be nonperforming assets. When a loan becomes 90 days delinquent, the loan is placed on nonaccrual status at which time the accrual of interest ceases and the allowance for
any uncollectible accrued interest is established and charged against operations. Typically, payments received on a nonaccrual loan are applied to the outstanding principal and interest as determined at the time of collection of the loan.

Real estate that we acquire as a result of foreclosure or by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is classified as real estate owned
until it is sold. When property is acquired it is recorded at the lower of its cost, which is the unpaid balance of the loan plus foreclosure costs, or fair market value at the date of foreclosure. Holding costs and declines in fair value after
acquisition of the property result in charges against income.

Nonperforming assets totaled $1.9 million, or 0.25% of total
assets, at December 31, 2009, which was an decrease of $30,000 from December 31, 2008. Nonaccrual loans accounted for $1.8 million and real estate owned accounted for $98,000 of nonperforming assets at December 31, 2009. At
December 31, 2009, nonaccrual loans were comprised of $1.7 million in mortgage loans, $139,000 of construction loans, $22,000 in commercial loans and $91,000 in consumer loans.

N/Mnot measurable as nonperforming loans are not material enough to allow for meaningful calculations.

Interest income that would have been recorded for the year ended December 31, 2009 had nonaccruing loans been current according to
their original terms amounted to $77,000. No interest related to nonaccrual loans was included in interest income for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Federal regulations require us to review and classify our assets on a regular basis. In addition, the Office of Thrift Supervision has the authority to identify problem assets and, if appropriate, require
them to be classified. There are three classifications for problem assets: substandard, doubtful and loss. Substandard assets must have one or more defined weaknesses and are characterized by the distinct possibility that we will sustain
some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Doubtful assets have the weaknesses of substandard assets with the additional characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full on the basis of currently existing
facts, conditions and values questionable, and there is a high possibility of loss. An asset classified as loss is considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuance as an asset of the institution is not warranted. The
regulations also provide for a special mention category, described as assets which do not currently expose us to a sufficient degree of risk to warrant classification but do possess credit deficiencies or potential weaknesses deserving
our close attention. When we classify an asset as substandard or doubtful we establish a specific allowance for loan losses. If we classify an asset as loss, we charge off an amount equal to 100% of the portion of the asset classified loss.

Classified assets increased to $10.7 million at December 31, 2009 from $6.0 million at December 31, 2008. The
increase in classified assets reflects the addition of $2.6 million in mortgage loans, $1.9 million in commercial loans and $125,000 in consumer loans.

At each of the dates in the above table, delinquent mortgage loans consisted primarily of loans secured by residential real estate.

Analysis and Determination of the Allowance for Loan Losses.The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the
balance sheet date. We evaluate the need to establish allowances against losses on loans on a monthly basis. When additional allowances are necessary, a provision for loan losses is charged to earnings.

Our methodology for assessing the appropriateness of the allowance for loan losses consists of two key elements: (1) specific
allowances for impaired or collateral-dependent loans; and (2) a general valuation allowance on the remainder of the loan portfolio. Although we determine the amount of each element of the allowance separately, the entire allowance for loan
losses is available for the entire portfolio. See Critical Accounting Policies, Judgements and Estimates and note 4 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for additional information on the determination of the
allowance for loan losses.

At December 31, 2009, our allowance for loan losses represented 0.52% of total net loans. The
allowance for loan losses increased to $3.5 million at December 31, 2009 from $2.7 million at December 31, 2008 due to provisions for loan losses of $1.3 million, which were offset by charge-offs of $460,000. The increase in the provision
for loan losses for 2009 was primarily to maintain a reserve level deemed appropriate by management in light of factors such as the level of non-performing loans, growth in the loan portfolio and the current economic conditions. The loss factors
used to calculate the allowance in December 31, 2009 from December 31, 2008 were slightly higher due to increases in delinquencies. At December 31, 2009, the specific allowance on impaired or collateral-dependent loans was $285,000
and the general valuation allowance on the remainder of the loan portfolio was $3.2 million.

At December 31, 2008, our
allowance for loan losses represented 0.45% of total net loans. The allowance for loan losses increased to $2.7 million at December 31, 2008 from $2.3 million at December 31, 2007 due to additions of $373,000 to the provision for loan
losses offset by recoveries of $4,000. The provision for loan

losses in 2008 reflected continued growth of the loan portfolio, particularly the increases in one- to four-family mortgage loans, commercial real estate loans and consumer loans. The loss
factors used to calculate the allowance in December 31, 2008 from December 31, 2007 were increased by 2.3 basis points due to general economic conditions. At December 31, 2008, the specific allowance on impaired or
collateral-dependent loans was zero as no loans were deemed impaired. The general valuation allowance for identified problem loans was $34,000 and the general valuation allowance on the remainder of the loan portfolio was $2.65 million.

Although we believe that we use the best information available to establish the allowance for loan losses,
future adjustments to the allowance for loan losses may be necessary and our results of operations could be adversely affected if circumstances differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the determinations. Furthermore, while we
believe we have established our allowance for loan losses in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, there can be no assurance that regulators, in reviewing our loan portfolio, will not request us to increase our allowance for loan
losses. In addition, because future events affecting borrowers and collateral cannot be predicted with certainty, there can be no assurance that the existing allowance for loan losses is adequate or that increases will not be necessary should the
quality of any loans deteriorate as a result of the factors discussed above. Any material increase in the allowance for loan losses may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

N/Mnot measurable as nonperforming loans and charge-offs are not material enough to allow for meaningful calculations.

In 2009 we experienced charge-offs of $460,000 on two properties based on current appraisals of non-performing properties. Our only property
in real estate owned had a $100,000 charge-off and $360,000 was charged-off on a single family non-performing property. In prior years, our net charge-offs were low, with most charge-offs relating to consumer loans. We believe that our strict
underwriting standards and, prior to 2007, a prolonged period of rising real estate values in our market area has been the primary reason for the absence of charged-off real estate loans.

Interest Rate Risk Management.We manage the interest rate sensitivity of our interest-bearing liabilities and
interest-earning assets in an effort to minimize the adverse effects of changes in the interest rate environment. Deposit accounts typically react more quickly to changes in market interest rates than mortgage loans because of the shorter maturities
of deposits. To reduce the potential volatility of our earnings, we have sought to improve the match between asset and liability maturities and rates, while maintaining an acceptable interest rate spread. We have adopted an interest rate risk action
plan pursuant to which we manage our interest rate risk. Under this plan, we have: periodically sold fixed-rate mortgage loans; extended the maturities of our borrowings; increased commercial lending, which emphasizes the origination of shorter
term, prime-based loans; emphasized the generation of core deposits, which provides a more stable, lower cost funding source; and structured our investment portfolio to include more liquid securities. We currently do not participate in hedging
programs, interest rate swaps or other activities involving the use of derivative financial instruments.

We have an
Asset/Liability Committee, which includes members of both the board of directors and management, to communicate, coordinate and control all aspects involving asset/liability management. The committee establishes and monitors the volume, maturities,
pricing and mix of assets and funding sources with the objective of managing assets and funding sources to provide results that are consistent with liquidity, growth, risk limits and profitability goals.

Net Interest Income Simulation Analysis.We analyze our interest rate
sensitivity position to manage the risk associated with interest rate movements through the use of interest income simulation. The matching of assets and liabilities may be analyzed by examining the extent to which such assets and liabilities are
interest sensitive. An asset or liability is said to be interest rate sensitive within a specific time period if it will mature or reprice within that time period.

Our goal is to manage asset and liability positions to moderate the effects of interest rate fluctuations on net interest income. Interest
income simulations are completed quarterly and presented to the Asset/Liability Committee. The simulations provide an estimate of the impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income under a range of assumptions. The numerous assumptions
used in the simulation process are reviewed by the Asset/Liability Committee on a quarterly basis. Changes to these assumptions can significantly affect the results of the simulation. The simulation incorporates assumptions regarding the potential
timing in the repricing of certain assets and liabilities when market rates change and the changes in spreads between different market rates. The simulation analysis incorporates managements current assessment of the risk that pricing margins
will change adversely over time due to competition or other factors.

Simulation analysis is only an estimate of our interest
rate risk exposure at a particular point in time. We continually review the potential effect changes in interest rates could have on the repayment of rate sensitive assets and funding requirements of rate sensitive liabilities.

The table below sets forth an approximation of our exposure as a percentage of estimated net interest income for the next 12- and 24-month
periods using interest income simulation. The simulation uses projected repricing of assets and liabilities at December 31, 2009 on the basis of contractual maturities, anticipated repayments and scheduled rate adjustments. Prepayment rates can
have a significant impact on interest income simulation. Because of the large percentage of loans and mortgage-backed securities we hold, rising or falling interest rates have a significant impact on the prepayment speeds of our earning assets that
in turn affect the rate sensitivity position. When interest rates rise, prepayments tend to slow. When interest rates fall, prepayments tend to rise. Our asset sensitivity would be reduced if prepayments slow and vice versa. While we believe such
assumptions to be reasonable, there can be no assurance that assumed prepayment rates will approximate actual future mortgage-backed security and loan repayment activity.

Management
believes that under the current rate environment, a change of interest rates downward of 200 basis points is a highly remote interest rate scenario. Therefore, management modified the limit and a 100 basis point decrease in interest rates was used.
This limit will be re-evaluated periodically and may be modified as appropriate.

The 200 and 100 basis point change in rates
in the above table is assumed to occur evenly over the following 12 months. Based on the scenario above, net interest income would be positively affected (within our internal guidelines) in the 12- and 24-month periods if rates rose by 200 basis
points. In addition, if rates declined by 100 basis points net interest income would be adversely affected (within our internal guidelines) in both the 12- and 24-month periods.

Net Portfolio Value Analysis.In addition to a net interest income simulation analysis, we use an interest rate sensitivity
analysis prepared by the Office of Thrift Supervision to review our level of interest rate risk. This

analysis measures interest rate risk by computing changes in net portfolio value of our cash flows from assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items in the event of a range of assumed changes
in market interest rates. Net portfolio value represents the market value of portfolio equity and is equal to the market value of assets minus the market value of liabilities, with adjustments made for off-balance sheet items. This analysis assesses
the risk of loss in market risk sensitive instruments in the event of a sudden and sustained 100 to 300 basis point increase or 50 to 100 basis point decrease in market interest rates with no effect given to any steps that we might take to counter
the effect of that interest rate movement. We measure interest rate risk by modeling the changes in net portfolio value over a variety of interest rate scenarios. The following table, which is based on information that we provide to the Office of
Thrift Supervision, presents the change in our net portfolio value at December 31, 2009 that would occur in the event of an immediate change in interest rates based on Office of Thrift Supervision assumptions, with no effect given to any steps
that we might take to counteract that change.

The
Office of Thrift Supervision uses certain assumptions in assessing the interest rate risk of savings associations. These assumptions relate to interest rates, loan prepayment rates, deposit decay rates, and the market values of certain assets under
differing interest rate scenarios, among others. As with any method of measuring interest rate risk, certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of analysis presented in the foregoing table. For example, although certain assets and liabilities
may have similar maturities or periods to repricing, they may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Also, the interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest
rates, while interest rates on other types may lag behind changes in market rates. Additionally, certain assets, such as adjustable-rate mortgage loans, have features that restrict changes in interest rates on a short-term basis and over the life of
the asset. Further, in the event of a change in interest rates, expected rates of prepayments on loans and early withdrawals from certificates could deviate significantly from those assumed in calculating the table.

Liquidity Management.The term liquidity refers to our ability to generate adequate amounts of cash to fund
loan originations, the purchase of investment securities, deposit withdrawals, repayment of borrowings and operating expenses. Our ability to meet our current financial obligations is a function of balance sheet structure, the ability to liquidate
assets and the availability of alternative sources of funds. To meet the needs of clients and manage risk, we engage in liquidity planning and management.

Our primary sources of funds consist of deposit inflows, loan repayments, maturities and sales of investment securities and borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York. While maturities and
scheduled amortization of loans and securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows, calls of investment securities and borrowed funds, and prepayments on loans and mortgage-backed securities are greatly influenced by general interest
rates, economic conditions and competition.

We regularly adjust our investments in liquid assets based upon our assessment of
(1) expected loan demand, (2) expected deposit flows, (3) yields available on interest-earning deposits and securities, and (4) the objectives of our asset/liability management policy.

Our most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents and interest-bearing deposits. The
levels of these assets depend on our operating, financing, lending and investing activities during any given period. At December 31, 2009, cash and cash equivalents totaled $33.0 million. Securities classified as available-for-sale whose market
value exceeds our cost, which provide additional sources of liquidity, totaled $19.9 million at December 31, 2009. In addition, at December 31, 2009, we had the ability to borrow an additional $257.6 million from the Federal Home Loan Bank
of New York, which included available overnight lines of credit of $48.5 million. On that date, we had no overnight advances outstanding.

At December 31, 2009, we had $52.3 million in commitments outstanding, which included $8.6 million in undisbursed construction loans, $24.9 million in unused home equity lines of credit and $12.6
million in commercial lines of credit. Certificates of deposit due within one year of December 31, 2009 totaled $155.1 million, or 72.5% of certificates of deposit. The large percentage of certificates of deposit that mature within one year
reflects customers hesitancy to invest their funds for long periods in the current low interest rate environment. If these maturing deposits do not remain with us, we will be required to seek other sources of funds, including other
certificates of deposit and lines of credit. Depending on market conditions, we may be required to pay higher rates on such deposits or other borrowings than we currently pay on the certificates of deposit due on or before December 31, 2010. We
believe, however, based on past experience, that a significant portion of our certificates of deposit will remain with us. We have the ability to attract and retain deposits by adjusting the interest rates offered.

Our primary investing activities are the origination of loans and the purchase of securities. Our primary financing activities consist of activity in deposit accounts, Federal Home Loan Bank advances and
reverse repurchase agreements. Deposit flows are affected by the overall level of interest rates, the interest rates and products offered by us and our local competitors and other factors. We generally manage the pricing of our deposits to be
competitive and to increase core deposit and commercial banking relationships. Occasionally, we offer promotional rates on certain deposit products to attract deposits.

The
Company is a separate legal entity from Ocean City Home Bank and must provide for its own liquidity. In addition to its operating expenses, the Company is responsible for paying any dividends declared to its shareholders, and interest and principal
on outstanding debt, if any. The Company also has repurchased shares of its common stock. The Companys primary source of income is dividends received from Ocean City Home Bank. The amount of dividends that Ocean City Home Bank
may declare and pay to the Company in any calendar year, without the receipt of prior approval from the Office of Thrift Supervision, but with prior notice to Office of Thrift Supervision, cannot exceed net income for that year to date plus retained
net income (as defined) for the preceding two calendar years. At December 31, 2009, the Company had liquid assets of $14.2 million.

Capital Management.We are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the Office of Thrift Supervision, including a risk-based capital measure. The risk-based capital
guidelines include both a definition of capital and a framework for calculating risk-weighted assets by assigning balance sheet assets and off-balance sheet items to broad risk categories. Under these requirements the federal bank regulatory
agencies have established quantitative measures to ensure that minimum thresholds for Tier 1 Capital, Total Capital and Leverage (Tier 1 Capital divided by average assets) ratios are maintained. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can
trigger certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that could have a direct material effect on our operations and financial position. Under the capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt
corrective action, Ocean City Home Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. It is our intention to maintain
well-capitalized risk-based capital levels. Ocean City Home Banks capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the federal bank regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. At
December 31, 2009, Ocean City Home Bank exceeded all of its regulatory capital requirements and is considered well capitalized under regulatory guidelines.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements.In the normal course of operations, we engage in a variety of financial transactions
that, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, are not recorded in our financial statements. These transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate and liquidity risk.
Such transactions are used primarily to manage customers requests for funding and take the form of loan commitments and lines of credit. For information about our loan commitments and unused lines of credit, see note 11 of the notes to
the consolidated financial statements.

For the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, we engaged in no
off-balance-sheet transactions reasonably likely to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

For a discussion of the impact of recent accounting pronouncements,

Effect of Inflation and Changing Prices

The financial statements and related financial data presented in this Form 10-K have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering the change in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The primary impact
of inflation on our operations is reflected in increased operating costs. Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all the assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates generally have a more
significant impact on a financial institutions performance than do general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the prices of goods and services.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The
internal control process has been designed under our supervision to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Companys financial statements for external reporting purposes in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Management conducted an assessment
of the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009, utilizing the framework established in Internal Control  Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on this assessment, management has determined that the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009 is effective.

Our internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that pertain to the maintenance of records that accurately
and fairly reflect, in reasonable detail, transactions and dispositions of assets; and provide reasonable assurances that: (1) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States; (2) receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the directors of the Company; and (3) unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition
of the Companys assets that could have a material effect on the Companys financial statements are prevented or timely detected.

All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to
financial statement preparation and presentation. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance
with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the
Companys independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Managements report was not subject to attestation by the Companys independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to
the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permits the Company to provide only managements report in this annual report.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Ocean Shore Holding Co. and subsidiaries:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition of Ocean
Shore Holding Co. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related consolidated statements of income, statement of changes in equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 2009. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial
reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of
the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Ocean Shore Holding Co. and
subsidiaries at December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2009, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America.

OCEAN SHORE HOLDING CO. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009, 2008 AND 2007

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND THE REORGANIZATION

Ocean Shore Holding Co. (Company) is the federally chartered holding company for Ocean City Home Bank (Bank), a federally chartered savings bank. The Company is a unitary savings
and loan holding company and conducts its operations primarily through the Bank. The Bank has one active subsidiary, Seashore Financial Services, LLC, which receives commissions from the sale of insurance products.

On December 18, 2009, the Company completed the second step conversion of Ocean City Home Bank from the mutual holding
company to the stock holding company form of organization (the Conversion) pursuant to a Plan of Conversion and Reorganization (the Plan). Upon completion of the Conversion, Ocean Shore Holding became the holding company for
the Bank and owns all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Banks common stock. In connection with the Conversion, 4,186,250 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Ocean Shore Holding Co. (the Common Stock)
were sold in subscription, community and syndicated community offerings to certain depositors and borrowers of the Bank and other investors for $8.00 per share, or $33.49 million in the aggregate (collectively, the Offerings). In
addition and in accordance with the Plan, approximately 3,121,868 shares of Common Stock (without taking into consideration cash issued in lieu of fractional shares) were issued in exchange for the outstanding shares of common stock of Ocean Shore
Holding Co., the former mid-tier holding company for the Bank, held by persons other than OC Financial MHC. Each share of common stock of Ocean Shore Holding Co. was converted into the right to receive 0.8793 shares of Common Stock in the
Conversion. All share and per share amounts have been adjusted in prior periods to reflect the effect of the conversion.

The
Banks market area consists of Atlantic and Cape May counties, New Jersey. Through a ten-branch network, the Bank operates as a retail banking concern in the communities of Ocean City and Marmora within Cape May County, and Linwood, Absecon,
Ventnor, Margate, Mays Landing, Egg Harbor Township and Galloway Township within Atlantic County. The Bank is engaged in the business of attracting time and demand deposits from the general public, small businesses and municipalities, and investing
such deposits primarily in residential mortgage loans, consumer loans and small commercial loans.

The Bank is subject to
regulatory supervision and examination by the Office of Thrift Supervision (the OTS), its primary regulator, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the FDIC) which insures its deposits. The Bank is a member of and
owns capital stock in the Federal Home Loan Bank (the FHLB) of New York, which is one of the twelve regional banks that comprise the FHLB System.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of PresentationThe consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the Bank and the Banks wholly owned subsidiary, Seashore Financial LLC, and are presented in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain information from prior periods has been condensed to conform to the
current presentation.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial StatementsThe preparation of the
consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates and assumptions in the Companys consolidated financial statements relate to the allowance for loan
losses, deferred income taxes and the fair value measurements of financial instruments. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Treasury StockStock held in treasury by the Company is accounted for
using the cost method, which treats stock held in treasury as a reduction to total stockholders equity.

The Company
retired its 451,258 shares of treasury stock totaling $5.4 million as a result of the completion of its second-step reorganization on December 18, 2009 and subsequently held no treasury stock on December 31, 2009. As of December 31,
2008 the Company held 439,268 shares in treasury stock at a cost of $5.3 million.

Concentration of Credit
RiskThe majority of the Companys loans are secured by 1 to 4 family real estate or made to businesses in Atlantic or Cape May Counties, New Jersey.

Investment and Mortgage-Backed SecuritiesThe Companys debt securities include both those that are held to maturity
and those that are available for sale. The purchase and sale of the Companys debt securities are recorded as of the trade date. At December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company had no unsettled purchases of investment securities. The
following provides further information on the Companys accounting for debt securities:

a. Held to
MaturityDebt securities that management has the positive intent and ability to hold until maturity are classified as held to maturity and are carried at their remaining unpaid principal balance, net of unamortized premiums or unaccreted
discounts. Premiums are amortized and discounts are accreted using the interest method over the estimated remaining term of the underlying security.

b. Available for SaleDebt and equity securities that will be held for indefinite periods of time, including securities that may be sold in response to changes in market interest or prepayment
rates, needs for liquidity and changes in the availability of and the yield of alternative investments, are classified as available for sale. These securities are carried at estimated fair value. Fair values are based on quoted prices for identical
assets in active markets, quoted prices for similar assets in markets that are either actively or not actively traded, or, in some cases where there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs, internally developed discounted cash flow
models. Unrealized gains and losses that are not concluded to be other than temporary, are excluded from earnings and are reported net of tax in other comprehensive income. Upon the sale of securities, any unamortized premium or unaccreted
discount is considered in the determination of gain or loss from the sale. Realized gains and losses on the sale or call of investment securities are recorded as of the trade date, reported in the Consolidated Statements of Income and determined
using the adjusted cost of the specific security sold or called. There were no sales of available for sale securities for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009. The Company sold $7,642,571 of equity securities in 2008.

In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) FASB ASC 325-40, Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial
Assets, and FASB ASC 320-10, InvestmentsDebt and Equity Securities,the Company evaluates its securities portfolio for other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) throughout the year. Each investment, which has a
fair value less than the book value is reviewed on a quarterly basis by management. Management considers at a minimum the following factors that, both individually or in combination, could indicate that the decline is other-than-temporary:
(a) the Company has the intent to sell the security; (b) it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before recovery; and (c) the Company does not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the
security. Among the factors that are considered in determining intent is a review of capital adequacy, interest rate risk profile and liquidity at the Company. An impairment charge is recorded against individual securities if the review
described above concludes that the decline in value is other-than-temporary.

AS OF AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009, 2008 AND 2007



An impairment charge is recorded if the review described above concludes that the
decline in value is other-than-temporary. The securities portfolio for the year-ended December 31, 2009 was deemed to include two other-than-temporary impaired (OTTI) investments. As a result, the Company recorded an OTTI charge of
$1.1 million during the twelve months ended December 31, 2009. The securities portfolio for the year-ended December 31, 2008 was deemed to include two other-than-temporary impaired investments. As a result, the Company recorded an OTTI
charge of $1.9 million during the year ended December 31, 2008. Additionally, the Company recognized $313 thousand OTTI charge in relation to equity securities held in the portfolio during the first quarter of 2008, and subsequently sold as
described above.

Deferred Loan FeesThe Bank defers all loan origination fees, net of certain direct loan
origination costs. The balance is accreted into income as a yield adjustment over the life of the loan using the level-yield method. Deferred loan fees are recorded as a component of Loansnet in the statement of financial
condition.

Unearned Discounts and PremiumsUnearned discounts and premiums on loans, investments and
mortgage-backed securities purchased are accreted and amortized, respectively, over the estimated life of the related asset using the interest method.

Office Properties and EquipmentNetOffice properties and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the expected useful lives of
the related assets as follows: buildings and improvements, ten to thirty nine years or at the lesser of the life of improvement or the lease; furniture and equipment, three to seven years. The costs of maintenance and repairs are expensed as
incurred, and renewals and betterments are capitalized.

Real Estate OwnedReal estate owned is comprised
of property acquired through foreclosure, in lieu of deed and bank property that is not in use. The property acquired through foreclosure is carried at the lower of the related loan balance or fair value of the property based on an appraisal less
estimated cost to dispose. Losses arising from foreclosure transactions are charged against the allowance for loan losses. Bank property is carried at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated cost to dispose. Costs to maintain real estate
owned and any subsequent gains or losses are included in the Companys Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Bank
Owned Life InsuranceThe Company has purchased life insurance policies on certain key employees. The Bank is the primary beneficiary of insurance policies on the lives of officers and employees of the Bank. These policies are recorded
at their cash surrender value and the Bank has recognized any increase in cash surrender value of life insurance, net of insurance costs, in the consolidated statements of income. The cash surrender value of the insurance policies is recorded as an
asset in the statements of financial condition. The company accounts for split dollar life insurance in accordance with FASB ASC 715-60, Defined Benefit PlansOther Post-Retirement. The guidance provides for determining a liability
for the postretirement benefit obligation as well as recognition and measurement of the associated asset on the basis of the terms of the collateral assignment agreement.

Allowance for Loan LossesThe allowance for loan losses is the amount estimated by management as necessary to cover losses inherent in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. The
allowance is established through the provision for loan losses, which is charged to income. Determining the amount of the allowance for loan losses necessarily involves a high degree of judgment. Among the material estimates required to establish
the allowance are the following: loss exposure at default; the amount and timing of future cash flows on impacted loans; value of collateral; and determination of loss factors to be applied to the various elements of the portfolio. All of these
estimates are susceptible to significant change. Although we believe that we use the best information

available to establish the allowance for loan losses, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if economic conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the
evaluation. In addition, the Office of Thrift Supervision, as an integral part of its examination process, periodically reviews our allowance for loan losses. Such agency may require us to recognize adjustments to the allowance based on its
judgments about information available to it at the time of its examination. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level that management considers adequate to provide for estimated losses and impairment based upon an evaluation of known
and inherent risk in the loan portfolio. Loan impairment is evaluated based on the fair value of collateral or estimated net realizable value. A provision for loan losses is charged to operations based on managements evaluation of the
estimated losses that have been incurred in the Companys loan portfolio. It is the policy of management to provide for losses on unidentified loans in its portfolio in addition to classified loans.

Management monitors its allowance for loan losses monthly and makes adjustments to the allowance through the provision for loan losses as
economic conditions and other pertinent factors indicate. The quarterly review and adjustment of the qualitative factors employed in the allowance methodology and the updating of historic loss experience allow for timely reaction to emerging
conditions and trends. In this context, a series of qualitative factors are used in a methodology as a measurement of how current circumstances are affecting the loan portfolio.

In determining the allowance for loan losses, management has established both specific and general pooled allowances. Values assigned to the
qualitative factors and those developed from historic loss experience provide a dynamic basis for the calculation of reserve factors for both pass-rated loans (general pooled allowance) and those criticized and classified loans without reserves
(specific allowance). The amount of the specific allowance is determined through a loan-by-loan analysis of non-performing loans. Loans not individually reviewed are evaluated as a group using reserve factor percentages based on qualitative and
quantitative factors described above. In determining the appropriate level of the general pooled allowance, management makes estimates based on internal risk ratings, which take into account such factors as debt service coverage, loan-to-value
ratios, and external factors. If a loan is identified as impaired and is collateral dependant, an appraisal is obtained to provide a base line in determining whether the carrying amount of the loan exceeds the net realizable value. We recognize
impairment through a provision estimate or a charge-off is recorded when management determines we will not collect 100% of a loan based on foreclosure of the collateral, less cost to sell the property, or the present value of expected cash flows.

As changes in our operating environment occur and as recent loss experience fluctuates, the factors for each category of loan
based on type and risk rating will change to reflect current circumstances and the quality of the loan portfolio. Given that the components of the allowance are based partially on historical losses and on risk rating changes in response to
recent events, required reserves may trail the emergence of any unforeseen deterioration in credit quality.

Loans are
considered past due 16 days or more past the due date. Loans are considered delinquent if 30 days or more past due. Loans over 90 days past due are placed on non-accrual status. Payments received on non-accrual loans are applied to principal,
interest and escrow on mortgage loans and to accrued interest followed by principal on all other loans. Loans are returned to accrual status when no payment is over 90 days past due. Unsecured loans are charged off when becoming more than 90 days
past due. Secured loans are charged off to the extent the loan amount exceeds the appraised value of the collateral when over 90 days past due and management believes the uncollectibility of the loan balance is confirmed.

Interest income on impaired loans other than nonaccrual loans is recognized on an
accrual basis. Interest income on nonaccrual loans is recognized only as collected.

Loans Held for Sale and Loans
SoldThe Bank originates mortgage loans held for investment and for sale. At origination, the mortgage loan is identified as either held for sale or for investment. Mortgage loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or
forward committed contracts (which approximates market), determined on a net aggregate basis. The Bank had no loans classified as held for sale at December 31, 2009 and 2008.

Income TaxesThe Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes.FASB ASC 740
requires the recording of deferred income taxes that reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Under
this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. If
current available information raises doubt as to the realization of the deferred tax assets, a valuation allowance is established. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the
years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. We exercise significant judgment in evaluating the amount and timing of recognition of the resulting tax liabilities and assets. These judgments require us to make
projections of future taxable income as well as judgments about availability of capital gains. The judgments and estimates we make in determining our deferred tax assets, which are inherently subjective, are reviewed on a continual basis as
regulatory and business factors change. Any reduction in estimated future taxable income may require us to record an additional valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets. Further, an inability to employ a qualifying tax strategy to utilize
our deferred tax asset arising from capital losses may give rise to an additional valuation allowance. An increase in the valuation allowance would result in additional income tax expense in the period, which would negatively affect earnings. FASB
ASC 740 prescribes a minimum probability threshold that a tax position must meet before a financial statement benefit is recognized. When applicable, we recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for
income taxes in the consolidated income statement. Assessment of uncertain tax positions under FASB ASC 740 requires careful consideration of the technical merits of a position based on managements analysis of tax regulations and
interpretations. Significant judgment may be involved in applying the requirements of FASB ASC 740.

Our adherence to
FASB ASC 740 may result in increased volatility in quarterly and annual effective income tax rates, as FASB ASC 740 requires that any change in judgment or change in measurement of a tax position taken in a prior period be recognized as a discrete
event in the period in which it occurs. Factors that could impact managements judgment include changes in income, tax laws and regulations, and tax planning strategies.

Interest Rate RiskThe Bank is engaged principally in providing first mortgage loans to borrowers. At December 31,
2009 and 2008, approximately two-thirds of the Banks assets consisted of assets that earned interest at fixed interest rates. Those assets were funded with long-term fixed rate liabilities and with short-term liabilities that have interest
rates that vary with market rates over time. The shorter duration of the interest-sensitive liabilities indicates that the Bank is exposed to interest rate risk because, in a rising rate environment, liabilities will be repricing faster at higher
interest rates, thereby reducing the market value of long-term assets and net interest income.

Earnings Per
ShareBasic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, net of any treasury shares, during the period. Diluted earnings per
share is calculated by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, net of any treasury shares,

after consideration of the potential dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, based upon the treasury stock method using an average market price of common shares sold during the period.
Earnings per share and average common shares outstanding for the prior periods have been adjusted to reflect the impact of the second-step conversion and reorganization of the Company using an exchange ratio of .8793 per share, which occurred
on December 18, 2009.

Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)The Company classifies items of other
comprehensive income (loss) by their nature and displays the accumulated balance of other comprehensive income (loss) separately from retained earnings and additional paid-in capital in the equity section of the Consolidated Statements of Financial
Condition. Amounts categorized as other comprehensive income (loss) represent net unrealized gains or losses on investment securities available for sale, net of tax. Reclassifications are made to avoid double counting in comprehensive income
(loss) items which are displayed as part of net income for the period. These adjustments are reflected in the consolidated statements of changes in equity.

Stock Based CompensationIn August 2005, the shareholders of the Company approved the adoption of the 2005 Equity Based Incentive Plan (the Equity Plan). The Equity Plan
provides for the grant of shares of common stock of the Company to officers, directors and employees of the Company. In order to fund the grant of shares under the Equity Plan, the Company established the Equity Plan Trust (the Trust)
which purchased 150,624 shares of the Companys common stock in the open market for approximately $2.0 million, resulting in an average price of $13.31 per share. The Company made sufficient contributions to the Trust to fund these purchases.
No additional purchases are expected to be made by the Trust under this plan. Pursuant to the terms of the Equity Plan, all 150,624 shares acquired by the Trust were granted to certain officers and directors of the Company in August 2005. Non-vested
restricted stock award shares granted under the Equity Plan will vest at the rate of 20% per year over five years. As of December 31, 2009, 120,499 shares have been fully vested, 120,499 shares issued and no shares were forfeited.

Compensation expense related to the shares granted is recognized ratably over the five year vesting period in an amount which
totals the market price of the Companys stock at the date of grant. During the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, 30,125 shares were earned each year by participants of the Equity Plan, based on the proportional vesting of the
awarded shares. During the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, approximately $397,000, $397,000 and $397,000, respectively, was recognized as compensation expense of the Equity Plan.

The Equity Plan also authorizes the grant of stock options to officers, employees and directors of the Company to acquire shares of common
stock with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the common stock on the grant date. Options will generally become vested and exercisable at the rate of 20% per year over five years. A total of 373,592 shares of common stock have
been approved for issuance pursuant to the grant of stock options under the Equity Plan of which 34,182 options were awarded on November 20, 2007, 21,103 options were awarded on November 21, 2006 and 348,203 options were awarded on
August 10, 2005. At December 31, 2009, no options issued in 2007, 1,319 options issued in 2006 and 28,577 options issued in 2005 have been forfeited.

Common Stock Acquired for Employee Benefit PlansUnearned ESOP shares are not considered outstanding for calculating net income per common share and are shown as a reduction of
stockholders equity and presented as Common Stock Acquired for Employee Benefit Plans. During the period the ESOP shares are committed to be released, the Company recognizes compensation cost equal to the fair value of the ESOP shares. When
the shares are released, Common Stock Acquired for Employee Benefit Plans is reduced by the cost of the

ESOP shares released and the differential between the fair value and the cost is charged/credited to additional paid-in capital. The loan receivable from the ESOP to the Company is not reported
as an asset nor is the debt of the ESOP reported as a liability in the Companys consolidated financial statements including 282,611 shares added on December 18, 2009 for $2.3 million in connection with the second-step conversion and
reorganization of the Company.

Statement of Cash FlowsFor purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash
equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks, interest-bearing deposits and federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds are purchased and sold for one-day periods.

Segment InformationAs a community oriented financial institution, substantially all of the Companys operations
involve the delivery of loan and deposit products to customers. Management makes operating decisions and assesses performance based on an ongoing review of these community-banking operations, which constitutes the Companys only operating
segment for financial reporting purposes.

New Accounting PronouncementsIn February 2010, the FASB issued
Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2010-09, Subsequent Events (Topic 855): Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements.This guidance removes the requirement for a Securities and Exchange Commission
(SEC) filer to disclose a date through which subsequent events have been evaluated in both issued and revised financial statements. Revised financial statements include financial statements revised as a result of either correction of an
error or retrospective application of GAAP. FASB ASU 2010-09 is intended to remove potential conflicts with the SECs literature and all of the its amendments are effective upon issuance, except for the use of the issued date for
conduit debt obligors, which will be effective for interim or annual periods ending after June 15, 2010. The Company adopted the new guidance, and it did not have a material impact on the Companys financial condition, results of
operations or cash flows. The disclosures required by this guidance are contained in the consolidated financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued FASB ASU 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements.This guidance requires: (1) disclosure of the
significant amount transferred in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and the reasons for the transfers; and (2) separate presentation of purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the reconciliation for fair value
measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). In addition, FASB ASU 2010-06 clarifies the requirements of the following existing disclosures set forth in FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures: (1) For
purposes of reporting fair value measurement for each class of assets and liabilities, a reporting entity needs to use judgment in determining the appropriate classes of assets and liabilities; and (2) a reporting entity should provide
disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning January 1, 2010, except
for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements, which are effective for fiscal years beginning January 1, 2011, and for interim periods within those
fiscal years. The Company is continuing to evaluate the impact of the new guidance, but does not expect the guidance will have a material impact on the Companys financial condition or results of operations or cash flows.

In June 2009, Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (the Codification or ASC)
105-10,Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, became the sole source of authoritative GAAP recognized by the FASB, as defined. Rules and interpretive guidance of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under authority of
federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. In addition, effective July 1, 2009, changes to the Codification are communicated through an ASU. This topic is effective for financial statements issued
for interim and annual periods ending after September 15,

2009 for most entities. On the effective date, all non-SEC accounting and reporting standards were superseded. The Company has adopted the requirements of ASC 105-10 for the quarterly period
ended September 30, 2009. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial position, results of operations, or statement of cash flows.

In May 2009, the FASB issued a new standard that was incorporated into FASB ASC 855, Subsequent Events. FASB ASC 855
establishes standards under which an entity shall recognize and disclose events that occur after a balance sheet date, but before the related financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. FASB ASC 855-10 is effective for fiscal
years and interim periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial position, results of operations, or statement of cash flows.

In April 2009, the FASB issued new guidance that impacts FASB ASC 825-10, Financial InstrumentsOverall.The new
guidance requires a public entity to provide disclosures about fair value of financial instruments in interim financial information. The new guidance was effective for interim and annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009, with
early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. An entity adopting this new guidance early must also adopt the new guidance impacting FASB ASC 820 and the new guidance impacting FASB ASC 320-10, InvestmentsDebt
and Equity Securities. The Company adopted the guidance as of June 30, 2009. As the standard amends only the disclosure requirements of financial instruments, the adoption did not impact the Companys consolidated financial
position, results of operations, or statement of cash flows. The disclosures required by this statement are contained in Note 15.

In April 2009, the FASB issued guidance that impacts FASB ASC 320-10, Receivables,which amends existing guidance for determining whether an impairment is other-than-temporary to debt securities and replaces the existing
requirement that the entitys management assert it has both the intent and ability to hold an impaired security until recovery with a requirement that management assert: (a) it does not have the intent to sell the security; (b) it is
more likely than not it will not have to sell the security before recovery of its cost basis; and (c) it does expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security. Under this new guidance, declines in the fair value of
held-to-maturity and available-for-sale securities below their cost that are deemed to be other than temporary are reflected in earnings as realized losses to the extent the impairment is related to credit losses. The amount of impairment
related to other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income. For debt securities held at the beginning of the period, the new guidance requires the Company to recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment, net of tax, to the opening balance
of retained earnings with a corresponding adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive income for the amount of the OTTI which should have been recognized in other comprehensive income had the guidance been in effect at the beginning of the
period. The provisions of this topic are effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company adopted the guidance as of June 30, 2009 and it did not have a material impact on the Companys
consolidated financial position, results of operations, or statement of cash flows.

In April 2009, the FASB issued new
guidance that impacts FASB ASC 820, Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value, whichincludes additional factors for determining whether there has been a significant decrease in market activity, affirms the objective of fair
value when a market is not active, eliminates the presumption that all transactions are not orderly unless proven otherwise, and requires an entity to disclose inputs and valuation techniques, and changes therein, used to measure fair value. The
provisions are effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company adopted this requirements as of June 30, 2009 and it had no impact on the Companys consolidated financial position, results of
operations, or statement of cash flows The disclosures required by this statement are contained in Note 15.

In January 2009, the FASB issued new guidance that impacts FASB ASC
325-40, InvestmentsOtherBeneficial in Securitized Financial Assets.This guidance, which was effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2008, was issued to achieve a more consistent
evaluation of whether there is an OTTI has occurred. This ASC amended previous guidance to more closely align the OTTI guidance therein to the guidance in ASC 320, InvestmentsDebt & Equity Securities. The section is
effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2008, and shall be applied prospectively. Retrospective application to a prior interim or annual reporting period is not permitted. The Company adopted the
requirements as of December 31, 2008 and it did not have material impact on the Companys financial condition, results of operations or statement of cash flows.

In June 2008, the FASB issued accounting guidance related to determining whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions are participating securities, which is effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those years. This guidance clarified that instruments granted in share-based payment transactions can be participating securities prior to the
requisite service having been rendered. A basic principle of this guidance is that unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities
and are to be included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. All prior-period earnings per share data presented (including interim financial statements, summaries of earnings, and selected financial data)
are required to be adjusted retrospectively to conform to this guidance. This accounting guidance was subsequently codified into ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share. The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 260 on January 1,
2009 and it did not have an impact on the Companys consolidated financial position, results of operations, or statement of cash flows, as it did not change its current practice.

OCEAN SHORE HOLDING CO. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)

AS OF AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009, 2008 AND 2007



Management has reviewed its investment securities as of December 31, 2009 and has
determined that all declines in fair value below amortized cost were concluded to be temporary.

Management evaluates
securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. The Company determines whether the unrealized losses are temporary in accordance with FASB
ASC 325-40, when applicable, and FASB ASC 320-10. The evaluation is based upon factors such as the creditworthiness of the issuers/guarantors, the underlying collateral, if applicable, and the continuing performance of the securities.
Management also evaluates other facts and circumstances that may be indicative of an OTTI condition. This includes, but is not limited to, an evaluation of the type of security, length of time and extent to which the fair value has been less than
cost, and near-term prospects of the issuer.

In April 2009, the accounting regulations in the United States changed the
existing impairment guidelines with respect to the Debt securities requiring the Company to assess whether the credit loss existed by considering whether (1) it does not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security,
(2) the Company has the intent to sell the security, or (3) it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before recovery. The guidance allows the Company to bifurcate the impact on securities where impairment in
value was deemed to be other than temporary between the component representing credit loss and the component representing loss related to other factors, when the security is not otherwise intended to be sold or is required to be sold. The portion of
the fair value decline attributable to credit loss must be recognized through a charge to earnings. The credit component is determined by comparing the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected, discounted at the rate in effect before
recognizing any OTTI, with the amortized cost basis of the debt security. The Company uses the cash flow expected to be realized from the security, which includes assumptions about interest rates, timing and severity of defaults, estimates of
potential recoveries, the cash flow distribution from the bond indenture and other factors, then applies a discount rate equal to the effective yield of the security. The difference between the present value of the expected cash flows and the
amortized book value is considered a credit loss. The fair market value of the security is determined using the same expected cash flows, where market-based observable inputs are not available; the discount rate is a rate the Company determines from
open market and other sources as appropriate for the security. The fair value is based on market prices or market-based observable inputs are available. The difference between the fair market value and the credit loss is recognized in other
comprehensive income

Upon adoption of to the new accounting regulations the Company was required to record a cumulative
effect adjustment to reclassify the non-credit portion of any other-than-temporary impairments previously recorded through earnings to accumulated other comprehensive income. The adoption had no impact on the opening balance sheet as the entire
amount of the previously recorded charges was concluded to be credit related impairment.

For the year ended December 31,
2009, the Company updated its assessment of securities with unrealized losses and whether the losses were temporary in nature. Upon completion of this review, $1.077 million of additional credit losses were incurred related to securities for which
the Company had previously recorded an OTTI charge in prior periods.

Two pooled trust preferred collateralized debt
obligations (CDOs) backed by bank trust capital securities have been determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired due solely to credit related factors. These securities have Fitch credit ratings below investment grade at
December 31, 2009. Each of the securities is in the mezzanine levels of credit subordination. The underlying collateral consists of the bank trust capital securities of over 50 institutions. A summary of key assumptions utilized to forecast
future expected cash flows on the securities determined to have OTTI were as follows as of December 31, 2009:

Corporate
Debt SecuritiesThe Companys investments in corporate debt securities consist of corporate debt securities issued by large financial institutions and single issuer and CDOs backed by bank trust preferred capital securities.

At December 31, 2009, six debt securities had been in a continuous unrealized loss position for 12 months or longer.
Those securities had aggregate depreciation of 30.0% from the Companys amortized cost basis. There has been limited secondary market trading for some of these types of securities, as a declining domestic economy and increasing credit losses in
the banking industry have led to illiquidity in the market for these types of securities. The unrealized loss on these debt securities relates principally to the changes in market interest rates and a lack of liquidity currently in the financial
markets. These securities were performing in accordance with their contractual terms as of December 31, 2009, and had paid all contractual cash flows since the Companys initial investment. Accordingly, the Company currently believes
it is probable that it will collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the investment. Management concluded that an other-than-temporary impairment did not exist and that the decline in value was attributed to the illiquidity in
the financial markets, based upon its analysis and the fact that the Company does not intend to sell these securities and that it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell these securities.

At December 31, 2008, three debt securities had been in a continuous unrealized loss position for 12 months or longer. Those securities
had aggregate depreciation of 47.4% from the Companys amortized cost basis. The unrealized loss on these debt securities related principally to the changes in market interest rates and a lack of liquidity currently in the financial
markets. Management believes these unrealized losses are not other-than-

temporary based upon the Companys analysis that the securities will perform in accordance with their terms, in addition to, the Companys ability and intent to hold these investments
for a period of time sufficient to allow for the anticipated recovery of fair value, which may be maturity. The Company believes recovery of fair value is expected when market conditions have stabilized and that the Company will receive
all contractual principal and interest payments related to those investments. These corporate debt securities had no identified credit issues and had a current credit rating of BBB or higher. As management had the ability and intent to hold these
debt securities until a forecasted recovery, which may be maturity, no decline was deemed to be other than temporary.

United States Treasury and Government Sponsored Enterprise Mortgage-backed SecuritiesThe Companys investments in United States government sponsored enterprise notes consist of debt obligations of the Federal Home Loan
Bank (FHLB), Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac), and Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae). At December 31, 2009, three agency mortgage-backed securities had been in a
continuous unrealized loss position for 12 months or longer. Those securities had aggregate depreciation of 0.38% from the Companys amortized cost basis. The unrealized losses relate principally to the changes in market interest rates
since the time of purchase and the widening of credit spreads of mortgage backed securities markets. These securities represent asset-backed issues that are issued or guaranteed by a U.S. Government sponsored agency or carrying the full faith
and credit of the United States through a government agency and are currently rated AAA by at least one bond credit rating agency. The Company does not intend to sell these securities and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be
required to sell the securities, and the Company anticipates it will recover the entire amortized cost basis of the securities, accordingly, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31,
2009.

At December 31, 2008, two mortgage-backed securities had been in a continuous unrealized loss position for 12
months or longer. Those securities had aggregate depreciation of 2.83% from the Companys amortized cost basis. The unrealized losses relate principally to the changes in market interest rates since the time of purchase and the widening of
credit spreads of mortgage backed securities markets. These securities represent asset backed issues that are issued or guaranteed by a U.S. Government sponsored agency or carrying the full faith and credit of the United States through a
government agency and were rated AAA by at least one bond credit rating agency at December 31, 2008. In September of 2008 the Treasury announced the establishment of the Government- Sponsored Enterprise Credit Facility to ensure credit
availability to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Treasury also entered into senior preferred stock purchase agreements, which ensure that each entity maintains a positive net worth and effectively support the holders of debt and MBS issued or guaranteed
by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The Agreements enhance market stability by providing additional security to debt holderssenior and subordinated, thereby alleviating the concern of the credit driven impairment of the securities. As management
had the ability and intent to hold these debt securities until a forecasted recovery, which may be maturity, no declines were deemed to be other than temporary.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)

AS OF AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009, 2008 AND 2007



The provision for loan losses charged to expense is based upon past loan loss
experiences and an evaluation of losses in the current loan portfolio, including the evaluation of impaired loans. The Company established a provision for loan losses of $1.25 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 as compared to $373,000
for the comparable period in 2008. A contributing factor in the increase of the loan loss provision for the year ended December 31, 2009 was specific reserves in the amount of $285,000 established during 2009 on six non-performing loans
totaling $1.2 million which have experienced payment delinquencies. Based on updated appraisals, the value of the real estate collateralizing the loans has declined requiring establishment of specific reserves.

A loan is considered to be impaired when, based upon current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect
all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan. An insignificant delay or insignificant shortfall in amount of payments does not necessarily result in the loan being identified as impaired. For this purpose, delays less than 90 days
are considered to be insignificant. As of December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, the impaired loan balance was measured for impairment based on the fair value of the loans collateral. Loans collectively evaluated for impairment include
residential real estate loans, consumer loans, and smaller balance commercial and commercial real estate loans.

As of
December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, the recorded investment in loans that are considered to be impaired was as follows:

The effective tax rate for 2009 was 38.3% compared to 38.0% for 2008. The Company recorded a reduction of
$119,000 in 2009 of a tax valuation allowance for charitable contributions carryover deduction resulting from higher than projected taxable income allowing for utilization of the remainder of the carryover. The effective tax rate for 2008 was 38.0%
compared to 37.0% for 2007. The Company recorded a reduction of $122,000 in 2008 of a tax valuation allowance for charitable contributions carryover deduction as it was able to utilize the carryover due to higher than expected taxable income. The
higher state income taxes were the result of non-deductible expenses related to impairment of securities. In 2007, the Company recorded a tax refund of $242,000. Partially offsetting the impact of the refund was a $168,000 tax valuation allowance
relating to the deferred tax asset established in connection with the Companys contribution to the charitable foundation established in connection with its public offering in 2004. The Company determined that, based on its assessment of future
taxable income and expectations of charitable contributions, it is probable that the tax benefit of the contribution may not be fully realized.

The Bank uses the specific charge-off method for computing reserves for bad debts. The bad debt deduction
allowable under this method is available to large banks with assets over $500 million. Generally, this method allows the Bank to deduct an annual addition to the reserve for bad debts equal to its net charge-offs.

Pursuant to ASC-740, the Company is not required to provide deferred taxes on its tax loan loss reserve as of December 31,
1987. The amount of this reserve on which no deferred taxes have been provided is approximately $2.4 million and is included in retained earnings at December 31, 2009 and 2008. This reserve could be recognized as taxable income and create
a current and/or deferred tax liability using the income tax rates then in effect if one of the following occur: (1) the Companys retained earnings represented by this reserve are used for distributions in liquidation or for any other
purpose other than to absorb losses from bad debts; (2) the Company fails to qualify as a Bank, as provided by the Internal Revenue Code; or (3) there is a change in federal tax law.

The Company adopted ASC-740 on January 1, 2007 and the initial application of the interpretation did not have an impact to the
Companys financial position or results of operations. At December 31, 2009 and 2008, there was no liability for uncertain tax positions and no known unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2009 and 2008.

The Company recognizes, when applicable, interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes in
the consolidated income statement. As of December 31, 2009, the tax years ended

December 31, 2006 through 2009 were subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (the IRS), while the tax years ended December 31, 2005 through 2009 were subject
to state examination. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, no audits were in process by a major tax jurisdiction that, if completed during the next twelve months, would be expected to result in a material change to the Companys unrecognized
tax benefits, as none exist.

10. JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES

In 1998, Ocean Shore Capital Trust I (the Trust), a trust created under Delaware law that is wholly owned by the Company, issued
$15 million of 8.67% Capital Securities (the Capital Securities) with a liquidation amount of $1,000 per Capital Security unit and a scheduled maturity of July 15, 2028. The proceeds from the sale of the Capital Securities were
utilized by the Trust to invest in $15.5 million of 8.67% Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures (the Debentures) of the Company. The Debentures are unsecured and rank subordinate and junior in right of payment to all
indebtedness, liabilities and obligations of the Company. The Debentures represent the sole assets of the Trust. Interest on the Capital Securities is cumulative and payable semi-annually in arrears. The Company has the option, subject to required
regulatory approval, to prepay the Debentures in whole or in part, at various prepayment prices, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of the prepayment.

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Loan CommitmentsAs
of December 31, 2009, the Company had approximately $3,960,750 in outstanding commitments to originate fixed and variable rate loans with market interest rates ranging from 4.875% to 6.25% and approximately $37,343,034 in unused lines of credit
with interest rates ranging from 3.25% to 16.00% on outstanding balances. Commitments are issued in accordance with the same policies and underwriting procedures as settled loans.

Lease CommitmentThe Company leases certain property and equipment under noncancellable operating leases. Scheduled
minimum lease payments are as follows as of December 31, 2009:



|                        |  |   |        
|----------------------- |  | - | -------
|Year Ending December 31
|2010                    |  | $ | 114,841
|2011                    |  |   | 43,437 
|Thereafter              |  |   |       
|                        |  |   |        
|Total                   |  | $ | 158,278
|                        |  |   |        

Rent expense for all operating leases was
approximately $143,849, $167,355 and $130,664 for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Cash Reserve RequirementThe Bank is required to maintain average reserve balances under the Federal Reserve Act and Regulation D issued thereunder. Such reserves totaled approximately $100,000 at December 31,
2009 and 2008.

Restrictions on Funds TransferredThere are various restrictions which limit the ability of
a bank subsidiary to transfer funds in the form of cash dividends, loans or advances to the parent company. Under federal law, the approval of the primary regulator is required if dividends declared by the Bank in any year exceed the net
profits of that year, as defined, combined with the retained profits for the two preceding years.

Employment ContractsThe Bank has entered into employment contracts
with several officers of the Bank whereby such officers would be entitled to a cash payment equal to 2 or 3 years annual compensation, depending on the officer, in the event of a change of control or other specified reasons.

12. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic net income per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, net of any treasury shares, while diluted net income per share is based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock
outstanding, net of any treasury shares, after consideration of the potential dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, based upon the treasury stock method using an average market price for the period, and impact of unallocated ESOP shares.
Earnings per share and average common shares outstanding for the prior periods have been adjusted to reflect the impact of the second-step conversion and reorganization of the Company, which occurred on December 18, 2009.

The calculated basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) are as follows:

13. REGULATORY
CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking
agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatoryand possibly additional discretionaryactions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Banks financial
statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Banks assets, liabilities and certain
off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Banks capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and
ratios (set forth in the table below) of tangible and core capital (as defined in the regulations) to total adjusted assets (as defined), and of risk-based capital (as defined) to risk-weighted assets (as defined). Management believes that, as of
December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.

Capital
levels at December 31, 2009 and 2008 for the Bank represents only the capital maintained at the Bank level, which is less than the capital of the Company.

Federal banking regulations place certain restrictions on dividends paid by the Bank to the Company. The total dividends that may be paid at any date is generally limited to the earnings of the Bank for
the year to date plus retained earnings for the prior two years, net of any prior capital distributions. In addition, dividends paid by the Bank to the Company would be prohibited if the distribution would cause the Banks capital to be reduced
below the applicable minimum capital requirements. For the periods ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, the Bank paid $1,200,000 in dividends to the Company.

schedule, to a trust for each respective officer organized by the Company to administer the plan so that the amounts required will be provided at the normal retirement dates and thereafter.
Assuming normal retirement, the benefits under the plan will be paid in varying amounts between 2013 and 2031. The agreements also provide for payment of benefits in the event of disability, early retirement, termination of employment, or death. The
contributions to the plan for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 were $362,000, $330,000 and $312,500, respectively, and were included as a component of Salaries and employee benefits expense in the statement of
income. The accrued liability included as a component of Other liabilities in the statement of financial condition was $1,932,100, $1,569,900 and $1,239,900 for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

The Bank maintains a directors deferred compensation plan whereby directors may defer into a retirement account a
portion of their monthly director fees for a specified period to provide a specified amount of income for a period of five to ten years following normal retirement. The Company also accrues the interest cost on the deferred fee obligation so that
the amounts required will be provided at the normal retirement dates and thereafter. Assuming normal retirement, the benefits under the plan will be paid in varying amounts between 2010 and 2029. Payments of $26,516 were made from the plan in 2009.
The agreements also provide for payment of benefits in the event of disability, early retirement, termination of service, or death. At December 31, 2009 and 2008, the accrued deferred compensation liability amounted to approximately $780,531
and $640,743, respectively, and is included as a component of Other Liabilities in the statement of financial condition. The contributions to the plan for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 were $135,799, $100,697 and
$100,472, respectively, and were included as a component of Salaries and employee benefits expense.

The Bank is
the owner and primary beneficiary of insurance policies on the lives of participating officers and directors. Such policies were purchased to informally fund the benefit obligations and to allow the Company to honor its contractual obligations in
the event of pre-retirement death of a covered officer or director. Certain of the insurance policies owned by the Bank are policies under which the employees designated beneficiary is entitled to part of the policy benefits upon the death of
the employee. The aggregate cash surrender value of all policies owned by the Company amounted to $12,837,789 and $10,859,714 at December 31, 2009 and 2008.

During 2004, a Deferred Compensation Stock Plan was established creating a rabbi trust to fund benefit plans for certain officers and directors to acquire shares through deferred compensation plans.
During the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, 1,576 and 3,161 shares were purchased for $10,704 and $24,891, respectively, at various market prices. In the Companys initial public offering, approximately 30,900 shares of the
Companys common stock were purchased for approximately $321,000 by this trust.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan

In December 2004, the Company established an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) covering all eligible employees as defined by
the ESOP. The ESOP is a tax-qualified plan designed to invest primarily in the Companys common stock that provides employees with the opportunity to receive a funded retirement benefit based primarily on the value of the Companys common
stock.

To purchase the Companys common stock in December 2004, the ESOP borrowed $3.4 million from the Company to
purchase 343,499 shares of the Companys common stock in the initial public offering. The ESOP loan is being repaid principally from the Banks contributions to the ESOP over a period of up to 15 years. Dividends declared on common stock
held by the ESOP and not allocated to the account of a participant can be used to repay the loan. The number of shares released annually is based upon the ratio that the current principal and interest payment bears to the current and all remaining
scheduled future principal and interest payments.

AS OF AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009, 2008 AND 2007



To purchase the Companys common stock in December 2009, the ESOP borrowed $2.3
million from the Company to purchase 282,611 shares of the Companys common stock in its second step offering. The ESOP loan is being repaid principally from the Banks contributions to the ESOP over a period of up to 20 years. Dividends
declared on common stock held by the ESOP and not allocated to the account of a participant can be used to repay the loan. The number of shares released annually is based upon the ratio that the current principal and interest payment bears to the
current and all remaining scheduled future principal and interest payments.

All shares that have not been released for
allocation to participants are held in a suspense account by the ESOP for future allocation as the loan is repaid. Unallocated common stock purchased by the ESOP is recorded as a reduction of stockholders equity at cost. During the years ended
December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, the Company recorded an expense related to this plan of approximately $169,000, $215,000 and $275,000, respectively.

during 2009 was $279,600.

15. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

The Company accounts for fair value measurement in accordance with FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. FASB ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring
fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. FASB ASC 820 does not require any new fair value measurements. The definition of fair value retains the exchange price notion in earlier definitions of fair value. FASB ASC 820
clarifies that the exchange price is the price in an orderly transaction between market participants to sell the asset or transfer the liability in the market in which the reporting entity would transact for the asset or liability. The definition
focuses on the price that would be received to sell the asset or paid to transfer the liability (an exit price), not the price that would be paid to acquire the asset or received to assume the liability (an entry price). FASB ASC 820 emphasizes that
fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. FASB ASC 820 also clarifies the application of fair value measurement in a market that is not active.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)

AS OF AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009, 2008 AND 2007



FASB ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted
prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair
value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the
determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

The Companys assessment of the
significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

In addition, the Company is to disclose the fair value measurements for financial assets on both a recurring and non-recurring basis.

Those assets as of December 31, 2009 which will continue to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:

of the trust preferred securities from quoted prices for similar assets (Level 2) to an internally developed discounted cash flow model (Level 3). In arriving at the discount rate used in
the model for each issue, the Company determined a trading group of similar securities quoted on the New York Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ over the counter market, based upon its review of market data points, such as Moodys or comparable
credit ratings, maturity, price, and yield. The Company indexed the individual securities within the trading group to a comparable interest rate swap (to maturity) in determining the spread. The average spread on the trading group was
matched with the individual trust preferred issues based on their comparable credit rating which was then used in arriving at the discount rate input to the model.

The following provides details of the fair value measurement activity for Level 3 for the year ended December 31, 2009:

decreased when compared with normal market conditions. The Company concluded that there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity with respect to certain
investments included in the corporate debt securities and classified as level 2 in accordance with the framework for fair value measurements. Fair value for such securities is obtained from third party broker quotes. The Company evaluated these
values to determine that the quoted price is based on current information that reflects orderly transactions or a valuation technique that reflects market participant assumptions by benchmarking the valuation results and assumptions used against
similar securities that are more actively traded in order to assess the reasonableness of the estimated fair values. The fair market value estimates we assign to these securities assume liquidation in an orderly fashion and not under distressed
circumstances.

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis; that is, the instruments are not measured
at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment). The Company measures impaired loans, FHLB stock, and loans or bank properties transferred into
other real estate owned at fair value on a non-recurring basis.

Impaired Loans

The Company considers loans to be impaired when it becomes probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due in accordance
with the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Under FASB ASC 310, collateral dependent impaired loans are valued based on the fair value of the collateral which is based on appraisals. In some cases, adjustments are made to the appraised
values for various factors including age of the appraisal, age of the comparables included in the appraisal, and known changes in the market and in the collateral. These adjustments are based upon unobservable inputs, and therefore, the fair value
measurement has been categorized as a Level 3 measurement. At December 31, 2009, specific reserves were calculated for impaired loans with a carrying amount of $1,158,000. The collateral underlying these loans had a fair value of $873,000,
resulting in specific reserves in the allowance for loan losses of $285,000. No specific reserve was calculated for impaired loans with an aggregate carrying amount of $687,000 at December 31, 2009, as the underlying collateral value was not
below the carrying amount.

Federal Home Loan Bank Stock

The Company holds required equity investments in the stock of Federal Home Loan Bank. Investment in the FHLB stock is evaluated for
impairment in accordance with FASB ASC 942-325. These investments may be measured based upon a discounted cash flow model reliant on observable and unobservable inputs, and therefore, the fair value measurement has been categorized as a Level 2 or
3, depending on such inputs used. At December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company determined that there was no impairment and, therefore, fair value disclosure under the provision of the fair value measurement and disclosures topic is not
applicable.

Real Estate Owned

Once an asset is determined to be uncollectible, the underlying collateral is repossessed and reclassified to foreclosed real estate and repossessed assets. These assets are carried at lower of cost or
fair value of the collateral, less cost to sell. In some cases, adjustments are made to the appraised values for various factors including age of the appraisal, age of the comparables included in the appraisal, and known changes in the market and in
the collateral. These adjustments are based upon unobservable inputs, and therefore, the fair value measurement has been categorized as a Level 3 measurement. At December 31, 2009, the Company deemed one loan uncollectible and took
possession of the underlying collateral. The collateral underlying the loan had a fair value of $95,000, with an aggregate carrying value of $198,000, triggering a net charge off of approximately $101,000. The Company had no real estate owned during
the year-ended 2008.

In accordance with FASB ASC 825-10-50-10, the Company is required to disclose the fair
value of financial instruments. The fair value of a financial instrument is the current amount that would be exchanged between willing parties, other than in a distressed sale. Fair value is best determined using observable market prices; however
for many of the Companys financial instruments no quoted market prices are readily available. In instances where quoted market prices are not readily available, fair value is determined using present value or other techniques appropriate for
the particular instrument. These techniques involve some degree of judgment and as a result are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company would realize in a current market exchange. Different assumptions or estimation techniques may have
a material effect on the estimated fair value.

Cash and
Cash EquivalentsFor cash and cash equivalents, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Investment and Mortgage-Backed SecuritiesFor investment securities, fair values are based on a combination of quoted prices for identical assets in active markets, quoted prices for similar assets in markets that are
either actively or not actively traded and pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques that may contain unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and require significant judgment. For
investment securities that do not actively trade in the marketplace, (primarily our investment in trust preferred securities of non-publicly traded companies) fair value is obtained from third party broker quotes. The Company evaluates prices from a
third party pricing service, third party broker quotes, and from another independent third party valuation source to determine their estimated fair value. These quotes are benchmarked against similar securities that are more actively traded in order
to assess the reasonableness of the estimated fair values. The fair market value estimates we assign to these securities assume liquidation in an orderly fashion and not under distressed circumstances. For securities classified as available for sale
the changes in fair value are reflected in the carrying value of the asset and are shown as a separate component of stockholders equity.

Loans ReceivableNetThe fair value of loans receivable is estimated based on the present value using discounted cash flows based on estimated market discount rates at which
similar loans would be made to borrowers and reflect similar credit ratings and interest rate risk for the same remaining maturities.

Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) StockAlthough FHLB stock is an equity interest in an FHLB, it is carried at cost because it does not have a readily determinable fair value as its ownership is restricted and it lacks

a market. While certain conditions are noted that required management to evaluate the stock for impairment, it is currently probable that the Company will realize its cost basis. Management
concluded that no impairment existed as of December 31, 2009 and 2008. The estimated fair value approximates the carrying amount.

NOW and Other Demand Deposit, Passbook Savings and Club, and Certificates AccountsThe fair value of NOW and other demand deposit accounts and passbook savings and club accounts is the amount payable on demand at
the reporting date. The fair value of certificates is estimated by discounting future cash flows using interest rates currently offered on certificates with similar remaining maturities.

Advances from FHLBThe fair value was estimated by determining the cost or benefit for early termination of each
individual borrowing.

Junior Subordinated DebentureThe fair value was estimated by discounting
approximate cash flows of the borrowings by yields estimating the fair value of similar issues.

Commitments to Extend
Credit and Letters of CreditThe majority of the Banks commitments to extend credit and letters of credit carry current market interest rates if converted to loans. Because commitments to extend credit and letters of credit are
generally unassignable by either the Bank or the borrower, they only have value to the Bank and the borrower. The estimated fair value approximates the recorded deferred fee amounts, which are not significant.

The fair value estimates presented herein are based on pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 2009 and 2008.
Although management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the fair value amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these consolidated financial statements since December 31, 2009 and
2008, and, therefore, current estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein.

19. SECOND STEP CONVERSION

On December 18, 2009, the Company completed the second step conversion of Ocean City Home Bank from the mutual holding
company to the stock holding company form of organization pursuant to a Plan of Conversion and Reorganization. Upon completion of the Conversion, Ocean Shore Holding became the holding company for the Bank and owns all of the issued and outstanding
shares of the Banks common stock. In connection with the Conversion, 4,186,250 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Ocean Shore Holding (the Common Stock) were sold in subscription, community and syndicated
community offerings to certain depositors and borrowers of the Bank and other investors for $8.00 per share, or $33.49 million in the aggregate (collectively, the Offerings). In addition and in accordance with the Plan, approximately
3,121,868 shares of Common Stock (without taking into consideration cash issued in lieu of fractional shares) were issued in exchange for the outstanding shares of common stock of Ocean Shore Holding Co., the former mid-tier holding company for the
Bank, held by persons other than OC Financial MHC. Each share of common stock of Ocean Shore Holding Co. was converted into the right to receive 0.8793 shares of Common Stock in the Conversion. Treasury stock held was retired.

Code of Ethics and Business Conduct

Ocean Shore Holding has adopted a Code of Ethics and Business Conduct that is designed to ensure that the Companys directors and
employees meet the highest standards of ethical conduct. The Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, which applies to all employees and directors, addresses conflicts of interest, the treatment of confidential information, general employee conduct and
compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations. In addition, the Code of Ethics and Business Conduct is designed to deter wrongdoing and promote honest and ethical conduct, the avoidance of conflicts of interest, full and accurate disclosure
and compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations.

Corporate Governance

The Company has a separately-designated standing Audit/Compliance Committee, whose membership consists of Directors Bertini, Dalzell, MD, Van
Duyne, Jr., Ford, Previti, Ed.D, and Young. The Audit/Compliance Committee meets periodically with the independent registered public accounting firm and management to review accounting, auditing, internal control structure and financial reporting
matters. The Board of Directors has determined that the Audit/Compliance Committee does not have a member who is an audit committee financial expert as such term is defined by the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. While the Board recognizes that no individual Board member meets the qualifications required of an audit committee financial expert, the Board believes that appointment of a new director to the Board of Directors and to the
Audit/Compliance Committee at this time is not necessary as the level of financial knowledge and experience of the current members of the Audit/Compliance Committee, including the ability to read and understand fundamental financial statements, is
cumulatively sufficient to discharge adequately the Audit/Compliance Committees responsibilities.

Retirement Benefits

Ocean
City Home Bank maintains salary continuation agreements with Messrs. Brady and Rizzotte to provide the executives with additional compensation at retirement or upon termination of employment by reason of death or disability. Messrs. Brady
and Rizzotte are entitled to an annual benefit for a period of 20 and 15 years, respectively, upon normal retirement at or after age 60. A reduced benefit is payable if the executive retires prior to age 60. The annual benefits are payable on a
monthly basis to the executives or their designated beneficiaries. Benefits payable under the salary continuation agreements are reduced by any benefits paid under the executives split dollar life insurance agreements.

Mr. Bradys employment agreement provides that if he terminates employment at or after attaining age 60 for any reason other than
cause, Ocean City Home Bank will continue health insurance coverage for Mr. Brady and his spouse until they both reach age 65. After that, Ocean City Home Bank will fund the cost of Medicare supplement coverage for Mr. Brady and his spouse
for the remainder of their respective lives.

Ocean City Home Bank maintains a stock-based deferred compensation plan under
which named executive officers may defer a discretionary bonus awarded to them upon meeting certain performance benchmarks

established by the Board. The executives account balance under the plan will be distributed to the executive following the executives termination of service for any reason in either a
lump sum or over a period of years, as elected by the executive.

Ocean City Home Bank also maintains a supplemental executive
retirement plan which provides restorative payments to executives designated by the Board of Directors who are prevented from receiving the full benefits contemplated by the employee stock ownership plans benefit formula and the full matching
contribution under the 401(k) plan. Ocean City Home Banks Board of Directors has designated Mr. Brady to participate in the plan. The restorative payments under the plan consist of payments in lieu of shares that cannot be allocated to
the participants account under the employee stock ownership plan and payments for employer matching contributions that cannot be allocated under the 401(k) plan due to the legal limitations imposed on tax-qualified plans. The benefits under
the plan will be paid to Mr. Brady at the same time benefits are paid under the employee stock ownership plan and 401(k) plan.

Other
Potential Post-Termination Benefits

Payments Made Upon Termination for Cause or Voluntary Termination by
Executive. If Mr. Brady is terminated for cause, he will receive his base salary through the date of termination and may retain the rights to any vested benefits subject to the terms of the plan or agreement under which those benefits
are provided. If Mr. Brady voluntarily terminates his employment under circumstances that would not constitute good reason (as defined in his employment agreement), he will be entitled to receive his base salary for a period of four months and
will be subject to a non-compete agreement for that four month period.

Payments Made Upon Termination without Cause or
for Good Reason. Mr. Bradys employment agreement provides that if we choose to terminate his employment for reasons other than for cause, or if Mr. Brady resigns after specified circumstances that would constitute good
reason, Mr. Brady will be entitled to receive an amount equal to his base salary due for the remaining term of his agreement, along with the contributions that would have been made on his behalf during the remaining term of his agreement to any
of our employee benefit plans. We also will continue and/or pay for Mr. Bradys life, health and dental coverage for the remaining term of his employment agreement. If Mr. Brady voluntarily terminates his employment agreement for good
reason, he will be subject to a one year non-compete agreement.

Payments Made Upon Disability. Under
Mr. Bradys employment agreement, if he becomes disabled and his employment is terminated, he will be entitled to disability pay equal to 100% of his bi-weekly base salary in effect at the date of termination. He would continue to receive
disability payments until the earlier of: (i) the date he returns to full employment with us, (ii) his death, (iii) attainment of age 65, or (iv) the date his employment agreement would have terminated had his employment not
terminated because of disability. All disability payments would be reduced by the amount of any disability benefits payable under our disability plans. In addition, Mr. Brady would continue to be covered to the greatest extent possible under
all benefit plans in which he participated prior to his disability as if he were actively employed by us.

Under their salary
continuation agreements, if Mr. Brady or Rizzotte terminates employment prior to age 60 as a result of a disability, Ocean City Home Bank will deposit into a trust for the benefit of the executive the amount that has been or should have been
accrued on Ocean City Home Banks financial statements, whichever is greater, with respect to Ocean City Home Banks obligations under the agreement. If the executive remains disabled as of age 60 and the assets of the trust are
insufficient to provide the executive with the annual benefit due to the executive following retirement at that age, Ocean City Home Bank will contribute an additional amount to the trust that, when combined with the existing assets of the trust,
would provide the executive with the normal retirement benefit under the agreement.

Upon termination due to disability,
outstanding stock options granted pursuant to our 2005 Equity Incentive Plan automatically vest and remain exercisable until the earlier of one year from the date of termination due to disability or the expiration date of the stock options.
Non-vested stock award shares granted to these officers under the plan also vest in full upon termination due to disability.

##### Table of Contents

Payments Made Upon Death.Under his employment agreement,
Mr. Bradys estate is entitled to receive the compensation due to him through the end of the month in which his death occurs.

Under Ocean City Home Banks Stock-Based Deferred Compensation Plan, if the executive dies before the end of the deferral period or after termination of employment but before the distribution of the
executives account balance, the executives designated beneficiary or estate will receive the benefits to which the executive was entitled.

Under their salary continuation agreements, if Mr. Brady or Mr. Rizzotte dies while in active service with Ocean City Home Bank, their designated beneficiaries are entitled to an annual benefit
for a period of 20 years and 15 years, respectively. If the executive dies after payments under the agreement have commenced, their designated beneficiary will be entitled to the remaining payments. No benefit will be payable under the salary
continuation agreements if any benefit is paid under the executives split dollar life insurance agreements.

Ocean City
Home Bank maintains split-dollar life insurance agreements with Messrs. Brady and Rizzotte. The agreements provide each executives beneficiary with a cash payment upon the death of the executive. If the executive terminates employment
prior to age 60 other than by reason of disability or following a change in control, the death benefit will be reduced proportionately by reference to the vested benefit under the executives salary continuation agreement.

Ocean City Home Bank maintains a Director and Executive Life Insurance Plan that provides the named executive officers with death benefits
for their designated beneficiaries. If the officer dies while actively employed by Ocean City Home Bank, the death benefit will be equal to three times the officers base annual salary (as defined in the plan), less any group term life
insurance benefit. If the officer dies following termination of employment with Ocean City Home Bank where termination is due to disability, after early retirement age (as determined under the plan) or within two years of a change in control, the
death benefit will be equal to two times the officers base annual salary upon termination of employment. Participation in the plan ceases immediately upon termination for cause (as defined in the plan), termination prior to early retirement
for reasons other than disability or following a change in control or upon actively working for a new employer following termination due to disability.

Upon termination due to death, outstanding stock options granted pursuant to our 2005 Equity Incentive Plan automatically vest and remain exercisable until the earlier of one year from the date of death
or the expiration date of the stock options. Non-vested restricted stock awards granted to these officers under the plan also vest in full upon death.

Payments Made Upon a Change in Control. Mr. Bradys employment agreement provides that if during the two year period following a change in control (as defined in the agreement)
Mr. Bradys employment is terminated without cause or he voluntary terminates his employment for good reason, Mr. Brady will be entitled to a severance payment equal to 2.99 times the average of his annual compensation over the five
calendar years preceding the change in control. For purposes of this calculation, annual compensation will include all taxable income plus any retirement contributions or benefits made or accrued on his behalf during the period. In addition,
Mr. Brady also will be entitled to receive the contributions he would have received under our retirement programs for a period of 36 months, as well as health, life and disability coverage for that same time period. Section 280G of the
Internal Revenue Code provides that payments related to a change in control that equal or exceed three times the individuals base amount (defined as average annual taxable compensation over the five preceding calendar years)
constitute excess parachute payments. Individuals who receive excess parachute payments are subject to a 20% excise tax on the amount that exceeds the base amount, and the employer may not deduct such amounts. Mr. Bradys
employment agreement provides that if the total value of the benefits provided and payments made to him in connection with a change in control, either under his employment agreement alone or together with other payments and benefits that he has the
right to receive from Ocean Shore Holding and Ocean City Home Bank, exceed three times his base amount (280G Limit), his severance payment will be reduced or revised so that the aggregate payments do not exceed his 280G Limit.

##### Table of Contents

Ocean City Home Bank has entered into change in control agreements with Mr. Rizzotte
and Mrs. Davidson. The agreements were entered into effective December 21, 2004 and had an initial term of three years for Mr. Rizzotte and two years for Mrs. Davidson. On each anniversary of the date of the agreement the Board
of Directors may extend the agreement for an additional year, unless the executive requests that the term not be extended. As a result of the amendment of Ms. Davidsons agreement and extensions approved by the Board of Directors, the
change in control agreements of Mr. Rizzotte and Mrs. Davidson currently have terms through December 21, 2010. The agreements of Mr. Rizzotte and Mrs. Davidson provide that if, following a change in control, the
executives employment is terminated without cause or the executive voluntary terminates employment for good reason, the executive will be entitled to a severance payment equal to three times the average of his annual compensation over the five
calendar years preceding the change in control, plus coverage under Ocean City Home Banks health and welfare plans for 36 months. The terms change in control and good reason are defined in the change in control
agreements. The change in control agreements provide that the total value of the benefits provided and payments made to an executive may not exceed his or her 280G Limit and that to avoid such a result the severance payment would be reduced.

Under their salary continuation agreements, Messrs. Brady and Rizzotte are entitled to an annual benefit for a period of
20 years and 15 years, respectively, following termination of employment before age 60 following a change in control. The annual benefits are payable on a monthly basis to the executives or their designated beneficiaries.

Under the terms of our employee stock ownership plan, upon a change in control (as defined in the plan), the plan trustee will repay in full
any outstanding acquisition loan. After repayment of the acquisition loan, all remaining shares of our 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
our stock held in the loan suspense account will be allocated among the accounts of all participants in the plan who were employed by us on the date immediately preceding the effective date of the change in control. The allocations of shares or cash
proceeds shall be credited to each eligible participant in proportion to the opening balances in their accounts as of the first day of the valuation period in which the change in control occurred. Payments under our employee stock ownership plan are
not categorized as parachute payments and, therefore, do not count towards each executives 280G Limit.

In addition to
providing for benefits lost under the employee stock ownership plan and 401(k) plan as a result of limitations imposed by the Internal Revenue Code, the supplemental executive retirement plan also provides supplemental benefits to participants upon
a change in control (as defined in the plan) before the complete scheduled repayment of the employee stock ownership plan loan. Mr. Brady is currently the only participant in the plan. The supplement benefit is equal to the benefit he would
have received under our employee stock ownership plan, had he remained employed throughout the term of the plans acquisition loan, less the benefits actually provided under the employee stock ownership plan on his behalf. All benefits received
under this plan count towards Mr. Bradys 280G Limit.

In the event of a change in control of Ocean Shore Holding or
Ocean City Home Bank, outstanding stock options granted pursuant to our 2005 Equity Incentive Plan automatically vest and, if the option holder is terminated other than for cause within 12 months of the change in control, will remain exercisable
until the expiration date of the stock options. Restricted stock awards granted to these officers under the plan also vest in full upon a change in control. The value of the accelerated options and restricted stock grants count towards
Mr. Bradys 280G Limit.

|ITEM 13. | CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
|-------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------

Director Independence

The Companys Board of Directors currently
consists of seven members, all of whom are independent under the listing standards of the NASDAQ Stock Market, except for Mr. Brady, who is President and Chief Executive Officer of Ocean Shore Holding and Ocean City Home Bank. In determining
the independence of its directors, the Board considered transactions, relationships and arrangements between the Company and its directors that are not required to be disclosed under the heading Transactions with Related Persons,
including loans or lines of credit that Ocean City Home Bank has directly or indirectly made to Directors Bertini, Dalzell, Van Duyne and Young.

Policies and Procedures for Approval of Related Persons Transactions

We maintain a Policy and Procedures
Governing Related Person Transactions, which is a written policy and set of procedures for the review and approval or ratification of transactions involving related persons. Under the policy, related persons consist of directors, director nominees,
executive officers, persons or entities known to us to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of any outstanding class of the voting securities of the Company, or immediate family members or certain affiliated entities of any of the
foregoing persons.

Transactions covered by the policy consist of any financial transaction, arrangement or relationship or
series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships, in which:



| |  |  | the aggregate amount involved will or may be expected to exceed $50,000 in any calendar year;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the Company is, will, or may be expected to be a participant; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | any related person has or will have a direct or indirect material interest.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

The policy excludes certain transactions, including:



| |  |  | any compensation paid to an executive officer of the Company if the Compensation Committee of the Board approved (or recommended that the Board
approve) such compensation;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | any compensation paid to a director of the Company if the Board or an authorized committee of the Board approved such compensation; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



107



---

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | any transaction with a related person involving consumer and investor financial products and services provided in the ordinary course of the
Companys business and on substantially the same terms as those prevailing at the time for comparable services provided to unrelated third parties or to the Companys employees on a broad basis (and, in the case of loans, in compliance
with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002).
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Related person transactions will be approved or ratified by the
Audit/Compliance Committee. In determining whether to approve or ratify a related person transaction, the Audit/Compliance Committee will consider all relevant factors, including:



| |  |  | whether the terms of the proposed transaction are at least as favorable to the Company as those that might be achieved with an unaffiliated third
party;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the size of the transaction and the amount of consideration payable to the related person;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the nature of the interest of the related person;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | whether the transaction may involve a conflict of interest; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | whether the transaction involves the provision of goods and services to the Company that are available from unaffiliated third parties.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A member of the Audit/Compliance Committee who has an interest in the transaction will abstain from voting
on approval of the transaction, but may, if so requested by the chair of the Audit/Compliance Committee, participate in some or all of the discussion.

Transactions with Related Persons

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 generally prohibits loans by Ocean Shore
Holding to its executive officers and directors. However, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act contains a specific exemption from such prohibition for loans by Ocean City Home Bank to its executive officers and directors in compliance with federal banking
regulations. Federal regulations require that all loans or extensions of credit to executive officers and directors of insured institutions must be made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at
the time for comparable transactions with other persons and must not involve more than the normal risk of repayment or present other unfavorable features. Ocean City Home Bank is therefore prohibited from making any new loans or extensions of credit
to executive officers and directors at different rates or terms than those offered to the general public, except for loans made pursuant to programs generally available to all employees. Notwithstanding this rule, federal regulations permit Ocean
City Home Bank to make loans to executive officers and directors at reduced interest rates if the loan is made under a benefit program generally available to all other employees and does not give preference to any executive officer or director over
any other employee. No director or executive officer of the Company had a loan amount under such a program at December 31, 2009.

Pursuant to the Companys Audit/Compliance Committee Charter, the Audit/Compliance Committee periodically reviews, no less frequently than quarterly, a summary of the Companys transactions with directors and executive officers of
the Company and with firms that employ directors, as well as any other related person transactions, for the purpose of recommending to the disinterested members of the Board of Directors that the transactions are fair, reasonable and within Company
policy and should be ratified and approved. Also, in accordance with banking regulations, the Board of Directors reviews all loans made to a director or executive officer in an amount that, when aggregated with the amount of all other loans to such
person and his or her related interests, exceed the greater of $25,000 or 5% of Ocean Shore Holdings capital and surplus (up to a maximum of $500,000) and such loan must be approved in advance by a majority of the disinterested members of the
Board of Directors. Additionally, pursuant to the Companys Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, all executive officers and directors of the Company must disclose any existing or emerging conflicts of interest to

the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Such potential conflicts of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: (i) the Company conducting business with or
competing against an organization in which a family member of an executive officer or director has an ownership or employment interest and (ii) the ownership of more than 1% of the outstanding securities or 5% of total assets of any business
entity that does business with or is in competition with the Company.

Policy on Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services

The Audit/Compliance Committee is responsible for appointing, setting compensation and overseeing the work of the independent registered public accounting firm. In accordance with its charter, the
Audit/Compliance Committee approves, in advance, all audit and permissible non-audit services to be performed by the independent registered public accounting firm. Such approval process ensures that the external auditor does not provide any
non-audit services to the Company that are prohibited by law or regulation.

In addition, the Audit/Compliance Committee has
established a policy regarding pre-approval of all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm. Requests for services by the independent registered public accounting firm for compliance with
the auditor services policy must be specific as to the particular services to be provided. The request may be made with respect to either specific services or a type of predictable or recurring service.

During the year ended December 31, 2009, all services were approved, in advance, by the Audit/Compliance Committee in compliance with
these procedures.
