Exhibit 4.2


 


DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
OF MAGYAR BANCORP, INC.


 


The summary of the general terms
and provisions of Magyar Bancorp, Inc.’s (the “Company”) capital stock set forth below does not purport to be complete
and is subject to and qualified by reference to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, and Bylaws, each of which
is incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
of which this Exhibit is a part. For additional information, please read the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended,
and Bylaws and the applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law.


 


GENERAL


 


Magyar Bancorp, Inc. is authorized
to issue 14,000,000 shares of common stock having a par value of $0.01 per share and 500,000 shares of serial preferred stock. Each share
of Magyar Bancorp, Inc.’s common stock has the same relative rights as, and are identical in all respects with, each other share
of common stock.


 


The Board of Directors can, without
stockholder approval, issue additional shares of common stock. Magyar Bancorp, Inc.’s issuance of additional shares of common stock
could dilute the voting strength of the holders of the common stock and may assist management in impeding an unfriendly takeover or attempted
change in control.


 


COMMON STOCK


 


DISTRIBUTIONS. Magyar Bancorp,
Inc. can pay dividends if, as and when declared by its Board of Directors, subject to compliance with limitations that are imposed by
law. The holders of common stock of Magyar Bancorp, Inc. are entitled to receive and share equally in such dividends as may be declared
by the Board of Directors of Magyar Bancorp, Inc. out of funds legally available therefor. Dividends from Magyar Bancorp, Inc. depend,
in part, upon the receipt of dividends from Magyar Bank. Pursuant to our certificate of incorporation, as amended, Magyar Bancorp, Inc.
is authorized to issue preferred stock. If Magyar Bancorp, Inc. does issue preferred stock, the holders thereof may have a priority over
the holders of the common stock with respect to dividends.


 


VOTING RIGHTS. The holders of
common stock of Magyar Bancorp, Inc. possess exclusive voting rights in Magyar Bancorp, Inc. Each holder of common stock is entitled to
one vote per share and does not have any right to cumulate votes in the election of directors. Under certain circumstances, shares in
excess of 10% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock may be considered “Excess Shares” and, accordingly, will
not be entitled to vote. If Magyar Bancorp, Inc. issues preferred stock, holders of the preferred stock may also possess voting rights.


 


LIQUIDATION. In the event of any
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Magyar Bank, Magyar Bancorp, Inc., as holder of Magyar Bank’s capital stock, would be
entitled to receive, after payment or provision for payment of all debts and liabilities of Magyar Bank, including all deposit accounts
and accrued interest thereon, all assets of Magyar Bank available for distribution. In the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding
up of Magyar Bancorp, Inc., the holders of its common stock would be entitled to receive, after payment or provision for payment of all
its debts and liabilities, all of the assets of Magyar Bancorp, Inc. available for distribution. If preferred stock is issued, the holders
thereof may have a priority over the holders of the common stock in the event of liquidation or dissolution.


 


RIGHTS TO BUY ADDITIONAL SHARES.
Holders of the common stock of Magyar Bancorp, Inc. are not entitled to preemptive rights with respect to any shares that may be issued.
Preemptive rights are the priority right to buy additional shares if Magyar Bancorp, Inc. issues more shares in the future. The common
stock is not subject to redemption.


 


PREFERRED STOCK


 


No shares of preferred stock are
currently outstanding. Preferred stock may be issued with such preferences and designations as the Board of Directors may from time to
time determine. The Board of Directors can, without stockholder approval, issue preferred stock with voting, dividend, liquidation and
conversion rights, which could dilute the voting strength of the holders of the common stock and may assist management in impeding an
unfriendly takeover or attempted change in control.
