the interests of the Issuer and the Purchaser(s)), then the number of Registrable Securities to be sold for the account of Selling Stockholders (including Purchaser(s)) may be reduced to a number that, in the opinion of the managing underwriter(s),
may reasonably be sold without having the adverse effect referred to above. The reduced number of Registrable Securities that may be registered shall be allocated in the following priority: first, to Registrable Securities proposed to be registered
for offer and sale by the Issuer; second, to Registrable Securities proposed to be registered pursuant to any registration rights of third parties; third, to Registrable Securities proposed to be registered pursuant to any piggy-back registration
rights under any other agreements ; and, fourth, to Registrable Securities proposed to be registered by Purchaser(s) as a Piggy-back Registration. The reduced number of Registrable Securities that may be registered pursuant to this paragraph (b)(ii)

provisions of this paragraph (b)(ii), Purchaser(s) shall not be entitled to include all Registrable Securities in a registration pursuant to this paragraph that Purchaser(s) have requested be included, Purchaser(s) may elect to withdraw their
Registrable Securities from the registration.

exchange, conversion or sale of the Issuer Shares or other Registrable Securities, recapitalization, other reorganization, dividend reinvestment plan, stock option plan or other employee benefit plan, or any similar transaction having similar
effect, (ii) is the first underwritten public offering by the Issuer after the date hereof, or (iii) would conflict with or be in violation of any agreement pursuant to which the Issuer has agreed to give registration rights to one or more
third parties including, without limitation, the Registration Rights Agreement intended to be executed at or before closing in connection with the acquisition of Acacia Federal Savings Bank. 

(c) Registration Procedures. 
 (i) Use Reasonable Best Efforts. In connection with the Issuer’s registration obligations pursuant to this Section, the Issuer shall use its reasonable best efforts to effect such
registrations to permit the sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method or methods of disposition thereof and:

 (e) Indemnification. 

(i) Indemnification by the Issuer. In the event of any registration of any securities of the Issuer under the 1933 Act pursuant
to this Section, the Issuer will, and hereby does, indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser(s), its directors, officers and agents and each other Person, if any, who controls Purchaser(s) within the meaning of paragraph 15 of the 1933 Act (Purchaser(s)
and such other Persons, collectively, “Purchaser(s) Covered Persons”), against any and all out-of-pocket losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) actually incurred by such
Purchaser(s) Covered Person under the 1933 Act, common law or otherwise (collectively, “Damages”), to the extent that such Damages (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of or result from (i) any untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which such securities were registered under the 1933 Act or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any preliminary Prospectus, together
with the documents incorporated by reference therein (as amended or supplemented if the Issuer shall have filed with the SEC any amendment thereof or supplement thereto), if used prior to the effective date of such Registration Statement, or
contained in the Prospectus, together with the documents incorporated by reference therein (as amended or supplemented if the Issuer shall have filed with the SEC any amendment thereof or supplement thereto), or the omission or alleged omission to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be
liable to any Purchaser(s) Covered Person in any such case to the extent that any such Damage (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) arises out of or relates to any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission
made in such Registration Statement or amendment thereof or supplement thereto or in any such preliminary, final or summary Prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Issuer by or on behalf of any such
Purchaser(s) Covered Person, specifically for use in the preparation thereof. 
 (ii) Indemnification by the Selling
Purchaser(s). In consideration of the Issuer including any Registrable Securities of Purchaser(s) in any Registration Statement filed in accordance with Section, Purchaser(s) shall be deemed to have agreed to indemnify and hold harmless, jointly
and severally (in the same manner and to the same extent as set forth in paragraph (a) of this Section) the Issuer, its directors, officers, managing directors and agents and each Person controlling the Issuer within the meaning of
Section 15 of the 1933 Act (each, a “Issuer Covered Person”) against any and all Damages, to the extent that such Damages (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of or are related to any statement or alleged statement
in or omission or alleged omission from such Registration Statement, any preliminary, final or summary Prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement, if such statement or alleged statement or omission or alleged omission was made in
reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Issuer or its representatives by or on behalf of Purchaser(s) specifically for use in the preparation of such Registration Statement,

  
 -15-

 
preliminary, final or summary Prospectus or amendment or supplement; provided however, that the total amounts payable in indemnity by the Purchaser(s) under this Section 5.5(e)(ii) shall not
exceed the net proceeds received by the Purchaser(s) in the registered offering out of which such indemnification arises. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Issuer or any
of its directors, officers or controlling Persons. The Issuer may require as a condition to its including Registrable Securities in any Registration Statement filed hereunder that Purchaser(s) acknowledge its agreement to be bound by the provisions
of this Section (including without limitation this subsection (e)) applicable to it. 
 (iii) Notices of Claims.
Promptly after receipt by a Purchaser(s) Covered Person or a Issuer Covered Person (each, an “Indemnified Party”) of written notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding with respect to which a claim for indemnification may be
made pursuant to this paragraph, such Indemnified Party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against, respectively, the Issuer, on the one hand, or Purchaser(s), on the other hand (such Person or Persons, the “Indemnifying
Party”), give written notice to the latter of the commencement of such action; provided, however, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its or their
obligations under this paragraph, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually materially prejudiced by such failure to give notice, and in no event shall such failure relieve the Indemnifying Party from any other liability which it
may have to such Indemnified Party. If any such claim or action shall be brought against an Indemnified Party, and it shall notify the Indemnifying Party thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent
that it wishes, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, and after notice from the Indemnifying Party to such Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnifying Party
shall not be liable to such Indemnified Party under this paragraph for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof, other than reasonable cost of investigation; provided,
further, that if, in the Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment, a conflict of interest between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party exists in respect of such claim, then such Indemnified Party shall have the right to
participate in the defense of such claim and to employ one firm of attorneys at the Indemnifying Party’s expense to represent such Indemnified Party. No Indemnified Party will consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement
without the Indemnifying Party’s written consent to such judgment or settlement, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment
or enter into any settlement in respect of which the Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such
Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such claim or proceeding. 
 (iv) Contribution. If the
indemnification provided for in this paragraph is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an Indemnified Party under this paragraph, then each Indemnifying Party shall have a joint and several obligation to contribute to the amount paid or
payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of the Damages referred to in this paragraph in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one

  
 -16-

 
hand and the Indemnified Party on the other hand in connection with the offering which resulted in such Damages, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault shall
be determined by reference to, among other things, whether an untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or an omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Indemnifying Party or the
Indemnified Party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statements or omission. The Issuer and the Purchaser(s) (in consideration of the Issuer’s including any
Registrable Securities in any Registration Statement filed in accordance with this Section) shall be deemed to have agreed, that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this paragraph were to be determined by pro rata
allocation or by any other method or allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph. The amount paid by an Indemnified Party as a result of the Damages referred to in the
first sentence of this paragraph shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim (which shall be limited as provided in
Section 5.5 (e)(iii) if the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of any such action accordance with the provisions thereof) which is the subject of this Section 5.5 (e)(iv). Notwithstanding the provisions of this
Section 5.5(e)(iv), the Purchaser(s) shall not be required to contribute, in the aggregate, an amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds actually received by the Purchaser(s) for the sale of Registrable Securities in the
registered offering exceeds the amount of damages that the Purchaser(s) have otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation
(within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party under this paragraph of notice of
the commencement of any action against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution has been made against an Indemnifying Party under this paragraph, such Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of the
commencement thereof if the notice specified in Section 5.5 (e)(iii) has not been given with respect to such action; provided, however, that the omission so to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party
from any liability which it may have to any Indemnified Party otherwise under this paragraph, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually materially prejudiced by such failure to give notice, and in no event shall such failure
relieve the Indemnifying Party from any other liability which it may have to such Indemnified Party. 
 (f) Rule 144. The
Issuer shall file the reports required to be filed by it under the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, so long as it is subject to such reporting requirements, all to the extent required from time to time
to enable Purchaser(s) to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the 1933 Act within the limits of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 of the 1933 Act (“Rule 144”). 

(g) Underwritten Registrations. 
 (i) Selection of Underwriter(s). In each registration under this Section, the underwriter or underwriters and managing underwriter or managing underwriters that will administer the offering shall
be selected by the Issuer. 

  
 -17-

 (ii) Agreements of Selling Purchaser(s). Purchaser(s) shall not sell any of its
Registrable Securities in any underwritten offering pursuant to a registration hereunder unless Purchaser(s) (i) agree to sell such Registrable Securities on a basis provided in any underwriting agreement in customary form, including the making
of customary representations, warranties and indemnities and (ii) complete and execute all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents required under the terms of such underwriting agreements or
as reasonably requested by the Issuer (whether or not such offering is underwritten). 
 (h) Transferability. The rights
of Purchaser(s) under this Section and the right to cause the Issuer to register Registrable Shares under this Section may not be assigned by Purchaser(s) to any transferee or assignee of any Registrable Securities. 

6. MISCELLANEOUS 
 6.1 Limitation on Personal Liability. All representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement, and all statements contained in any certificates delivered by or on behalf of the Issuer or any
of its representatives pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with the Transactions will be deemed representations or warranties solely of the Issuer, and the individuals making such statements shall have no personal liability therefor.

 6.4 Governing Law; Service of Process. All questions concerning the construction, validity,
enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania
or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any
such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Agreement, by certified or registered first class mail, postage prepaid, and agrees that such service shall constitute good and

 6.5 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts and, if executed in more than one counterpart, the executed counterparts shall each be deemed to be an original, but all
such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. 
 6.6 Headings. The headings herein are
inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be part of, or to affect the meaning or interpretation of, this Agreement. 
 6.7 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other

 -20-

 
delivery, performance or enforcement of this Agreement, and the Transactions contemplated hereby, except to the extent that any such cause of action, suit or claim (including any

the Change in Bank Control Act or corresponding provisions of applicable state laws, or any other federal or state banking law. To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Issuer may be unenforceable for any reason, the Issuer shall make the

or arising out of, or relating to (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Purchaser(s) in this Agreement or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, or (b) any
breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Purchaser(s) contained in this Agreement or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby. To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Purchaser(s) may be
unenforceable for any reason, the Purchaser(s) shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. 

(c) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnitee under this Section 6.12 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding
(including any governmental action or proceeding) involving an Indemnified Liability, such Indemnitee shall, if a claim for indemnification in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6.12, deliver to the
indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to
assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnitee; provided, however, that an Indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel with fees and expenses of not more
than one counsel for such Indemnitee to be paid by the indemnifying party, only if, in the reasonable opinion of the Indemnitee, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnitee and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or
potential differing interests between such Indemnitee and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding; and provided further, in no event shall the indemnifying party be liable for fees and expenses of more than one counsel
in addition to its own counsel for all Indemnitees in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. The Indemnitee shall cooperate
fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or Indemnified Liabilities by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably

  
 -21-

 
available to the Indemnitee that relates to such action or Indemnified Liabilities. The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnitee fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or
any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent, provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not
unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld conditioned or delayed, consent to entry of any judgment or
enter into any settlement or other compromise which (i) does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnitee of a release from all liability in respect to such Indemnified Liabilities or
litigation, (ii) requires any admission of wrongdoing by such Indemnitee, or (iii) obligates or requires an Indemnitee to take, or refrain from taking, any action. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party
shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnitee with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a
reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnitee under this Section, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in its ability to defend such
action. 
 (d) The indemnification required by this Section 6.12 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof
during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received by the Indemnitee and transmitted to the indemnifying party or as and when other Indemnified Liabilities are incurred. 

6.13 No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to
express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party. 
 6.14 Payment Set
Aside. To the extent that the Issuer makes a payment or payments to the Purchaser(s) hereunder or the Purchaser(s) enforce or exercise their rights hereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any
part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Issuer, a trustee, receiver or any other person under
any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, foreign, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall
be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred. 
 6.15 Termination. 
 This Agreement may be terminated, and the Transactions
contemplated hereby abandoned, at any time prior to the Closing Date: 
 (a) by the mutual written consent of the Purchaser(s)
and the Issuer; 

  
 -22-

 (b) by either the Purchaser(s) or the Issuer if, for reasons other than breach by the
terminating party of any obligations under this Agreement, Closing is not held by the close of business on                     ,
20    ; or 
 (c) by either the Purchaser(s) or the Issuer if the other party materially breaches its
obligations under this Agreement.

 (c) Purchaser understands that the shares constituting the Purchased Shares
are “restricted securities” and have not been registered under the 1933 Act as or any applicable state securities laws and Purchaser is acquiring the Purchased Shares as principal for its own account and not with a view to, or for
distributing or reselling such Purchased Shares or any part thereof in violation of the 1933 Act or any applicable state securities laws. Purchaser understands that the shares constituting the Purchased Shares may not be resold unless they are
registered under the 1933 Act or an exemption from registration is available, and that Purchaser does not have the protection of Section 11 of the 1933 Act in connection with the acquisition of the Purchased Shares. Purchaser further

(g) Purchaser acknowledges that it has been afforded (a) the opportunity to ask such questions as it has deemed
necessary of, and to receive answers from, representatives of Issuer concerning the merits and risks of investing in the Purchased Shares; (b) access to information about Issuer and its subsidiaries and their respective financial condition,
results of operations, business, properties, management and prospects sufficient to enable it to evaluate its investment; and (c) the opportunity to obtain such additional information that Purchaser possesses or can acquire without unreasonable
effort or expense that is necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to the investment. Neither such inquiries nor any other investigation 

  
 -6-

 
conducted by or on behalf of Purchaser or its representatives or counsel shall modify, amend or affect Purchaser’s right to rely on the truth, accuracy and completeness of Issuer’s
representations and warranties contained in this Agreement. Purchaser is not relying on the Issuer or any of its affiliates with respect to an analysis or consideration of the terms of or economic considerations relating to its acquisition of the
Purchased Shares. In regard to such considerations and analysis, Purchaser has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed decision with respect to its acquisition of the Purchased Shares.

 (h) Purchaser understands that the Purchased Shares being offered and issued to it in reliance on specific
exemptions from the registration requirements of U.S. federal and state securities laws and that Issuer is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and Purchaser’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements,
acknowledgments and understandings of Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of Purchaser to acquire the Purchased Shares. 

(i) The execution, delivery and performance by the Purchaser of this Agreement, purchase of the Purchased Shares in the
manner contemplated hereby, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein (collectively, the “Transactions”), will not (i) conflict with or constitute a material violation of, or material default (with the passage of
time or the delivery of notice) under any law, administrative regulation, ordinance or judgment, order or decree of any court or governmental agency, arbitration panel or authority binding upon Purchaser or any of its property, or (ii) violate
any of the provisions of the charter documents of the Purchaser; and no material consent, approval, authorization or order of, or filing or registration with any such person (including, without limitation, any such court or governmental agency or
body) is required for the consummation of the Transactions by the Purchaser, except such as may be required for a under Regulation D under the 1933 Act or for a Rule 506 “federal covered security” under state securities laws. 

(j) Neither the Purchaser, nor any person or organization whose ownership or control may be attributable to or combined
with Purchaser, either alone or in concert with others, directly or indirectly owns or controls any other voting shares of the Issuer. 
 (k) Purchaser is not required to obtain, prepare or file any authorization, approval, consent, filing or registration with any Governmental Authority in order to consummate the Transactions at the Closing
Date. 
 (l) The offer to purchase the Purchased Shares was directly communicated to the Purchaser by the Issuer
or a Placement Agent. 
 (m) No broker or finder was employed by Purchaser in connection with the Transactions
other than the Placement Agents. Purchaser is not, nor will be, obligated for any finder’s or broker’s commission, fee or other compensation in connection with Transactions.

prospectus, any pre-effective and post-effective amendment and all material incorporated by reference in any prospectus. 

“Registrable Securities” means the Issuer Shares or shares of common stock issued or issuable by the Issuer. As to any
particular Registrable Securities, once issued such securities shall cease to be Registrable Securities when (i) a Registration Statement with respect to the sale of such securities shall have become effective under the 1933 Act and such
securities shall have been disposed of in accordance with such Registration Statement, (ii) such securities shall have been sold to the public pursuant to Rule 144 (or any successor provision) under the 1933 Act, (iii) such securities
shall have ceased to be outstanding, or (iv) such securities may be sold in the public market of the United States, in unlimited amounts and without the requirement for the Issuer to be in compliance with the current public information required
under Rule 144, under Rule 144, without registration under the 1933 Act. 
 “Registration” means the registration of
the Registrable Securities as described in this Section. 
 “Registration Statement” means any registration statement
of the Issuer which covers Registrable Securities pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, all amendments and supplements to such registration statement, including pre-effective and post-effective amendments, and all exhibits and all material

 (b) Piggy-back Registrations. 

(i) Right to Include Registrable Securities. If at any time the Issuer proposes to register (including for this purpose a
registration effected by the Issuer for security holders of the Issuer other than Purchaser) any Registrable Securities and to file a Registration Statement with respect thereto under the 1933 Act, whether or not for sale for its own account in a
manner that would permit registration of Registrable Securities for sale to the public under the 1933 Act (a “Public Offering”), the Issuer will each such time promptly give written notice to Purchaser (i) of its intention to do so,
(ii) of the form of registration statement of the SEC that has been selected by the Issuer and (iii) of rights of Purchaser under this paragraph (the “paragraph 3 Notice”). The Issuer will include in the case of a proposed Public
Offering all Registrable Securities that the Issuer is requested in writing, within 15 days after the paragraph 3 Notice is given, to register by Purchaser thereof (a “Piggy-back Registration”); provided, however, that
(x) if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any Registrable Securities and prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement filed in connection with such registration, the Issuer shall determine that
none of such Registrable Securities shall be registered, the Issuer may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to Purchaser if Purchaser shall have requested registration and, thereupon, shall be relieved of its obligation to
register any Registrable Securities in connection with such abandoned registration, and (y) in case of a determination by the Issuer to delay registration of Registrable Securities, the Issuer shall be permitted to delay the registration of
such Registrable Securities pursuant to this paragraph for the same period as the delay in registering such other Registrable Securities by the Issuer, as the case may be or may abandon the registration of Registrable Securities, in the sole
discretion of the Issuer.

 (ii) Priority; Registration Form. If the managing underwriter(s) for a registration
in which Registrable Securities are proposed to be included pursuant to this paragraph that involves an underwritten offering shall advise the Issuer in writing in good faith that in its opinion, the number of Registrable Securities to be sold for
the account of persons other than the Issuer (collectively, “Selling Stockholders”) is greater than the amount that can be offered without adversely affecting the success of the offering (taking into consideration the interests of the
Issuer and Purchaser), then the number of Registrable Securities to be sold for the account of Selling Stockholders (including Purchaser) may be reduced to a number that, in the opinion of the managing underwriter(s), may reasonably be sold without
having the adverse effect referred to above. The reduced number of Registrable Securities that may be registered shall be allocated in the following priority: first, to Registrable Securities proposed to be registered for offer and sale by the
Issuer; second, to Registrable Securities proposed to be registered pursuant to any registration rights of third parties; and third, to Registrable Securities proposed to be registered pursuant to any piggy-back registration rights under any
agreements, including this Agreement. The reduced number of Registrable Securities that may be registered pursuant to this paragraph (b)(ii) shall be allocated pro rata among the Purchaser and any other Holders participating in the Piggy-back
Registration, based on the number of Registrable Securities beneficially owned by the respective Holders. If, as a result of the proration provisions of this paragraph (b)(ii), Purchaser shall not be entitled to include all Registrable Securities in
a registration pursuant to this paragraph that Purchaser has requested be included, Purchaser may elect to withdraw their Registrable Securities from the registration. 
 (iii) Merger, Consolidation, Other. Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph to the contrary, Purchaser shall not have any right to include Registrable Securities in any distribution or
registration which (i) is pursuant to a merger, amalgamation, consolidation, acquisition, exchange offer, sale of Registrable Securities issuable or issued upon exchange, conversion or sale of the Issuer Shares or other Registrable Securities,
recapitalization, other reorganization, dividend reinvestment plan, stock option plan or other employee benefit plan, or any similar transaction having similar effect, (ii) is the first underwritten public offering by the Issuer after the date
hereof, or (iii) would conflict with or be in violation of any agreement pursuant to which the Issuer has agreed to give registration rights to one or more third parties including, without limitation, the Registration Rights Agreement intended
to be executed at or before closing in connection with the acquisition of Acacia Federal Savings Bank. 
 (c)
Registration Procedures. 
 (i) Use Reasonable Best Efforts. In connection with the Issuer’s registration
obligations pursuant to this Section, the Issuer shall use its reasonable best efforts to effect such registrations to permit the sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method or methods of disposition thereof and:

 (1) to prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement relating to the registration on any appropriate
form under the 1933 Act, and to cause such Registration Statement to become effective as soon as reasonably practicable and to remain continuously effective for the time period required by this Agreement to the extent permitted under the 1933 Act;

the discovery, or upon the occurrence of any event, which requires that any changes be made in such Registration Statement or any related Prospectus so that such Registration Statement or Prospectus will not contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made; provided, however, that in the case of this subclause (F), such notice need only state that an event of such nature has occurred, without describing such event; 

(4) to make every reasonable effort to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration
Statement, or the qualification of any Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, at the earliest reasonably practicable moment; 

  
 -12-

supplement or exhibit in each case in accordance with the intended method or methods of disposition thereof; 

(8) prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities, to register or qualify, or to cooperate with Purchaser, the
underwriter(s), if any, and their respective counsel in connection with the registration or qualification of, such Registrable Securities for offer and sale under the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as may be requested by the
Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement; to keep each such registration or qualification effective during the Effective Period; and to do any and all other acts or things necessary to enable the
disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement; provided, however, that the Issuer will not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not
then so qualified or to take any action which would subject it to general service in any jurisdiction where it is not then so subject; 
 (9) to cooperate with Purchaser and the underwriter(s), if any, in the preparation and delivery of certificates representing the Registrable Securities to be sold, such certificates to be in such
denominations and registered in such names as Purchaser or managing underwriter(s) may request at least five (5) Business Days prior to any sale of Registrable Securities represented by such certificates; 

(10) subject to paragraph (c)(iii) hereof, upon the occurrence of any event described in clause (F) of subparagraph

cause such supplement or post-effective amendment to become effective as soon as practicable; 
 (11) to take all
other actions in connection therewith as are reasonably necessary or desirable in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement and, in the case of an underwritten offering:

Persons”), against any and all out-of-pocket losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) (collectively “Damages”) caused by (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or any amendment thereof under which such securities were registered under the 1933 Act or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any preliminary, final or

filed, or is required to file, pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the 1933 Act, any “road show” as defined in Rule 433(h) under the 1933 Act, or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary in order to make the statements therein, in 

  
 -15-

 
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be liable to Purchaser Covered Person in any such case to the
extent that any such Damage (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) is caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the
Issuer by or on behalf of any such Purchaser Covered Person, specifically for use in the preparation thereof. 
 (ii)
Indemnification by the Selling Purchaser. In consideration of the Issuer including any Registrable Securities of Purchaser in any Registration Statement filed in accordance with Section 5.5, Purchaser shall be deemed to have agreed to
indemnify and hold harmless (in the same manner and to the same extent as set forth in paragraph (a) of this Section) the Issuer, its directors, officers, managing directors and agents and each Person controlling the Issuer within the meaning
of Section 15 of the 1933 Act (each, a “Issuer Covered Person”) against any and all Damages, to the extent that such Damages (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) is caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
in or omission or alleged omission from such Registration Statement, any preliminary, final or summary Prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto, any issuer free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 433(h) under the 1933 Act), any “road
show” as defined in Rule 433(h) under the 1933 Act, if such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Issuer or its
representatives by or on behalf of Purchaser specifically for use in the preparation of such Registration Statement, preliminary, final or summary Prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto, any issuer free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule
433(h) under the 1933 Act), any “road show” as defined in Rule 433(h) under the 1933 Act; provided, however, that the total amounts payable in indemnity by Purchaser under this Section 5.5(e)(ii) shall not exceed the net
proceeds received by Purchaser in the registered offering out of which such indemnification arises. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Issuer or any of its directors,
officers or controlling Persons. The Issuer may require as a condition to its including Registrable Securities in any Registration Statement filed hereunder that Purchaser acknowledge its agreement to be bound by the provisions of this Section
(including without limitation this subsection (e)) applicable to it. 
 (iii) Notices of Claims. Promptly after receipt
by a Purchaser Covered Person or an Issuer Covered Person (each, an “Indemnified Party”) of written notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding with respect to which a claim for indemnification may be made pursuant to this
paragraph, such Indemnified Party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against, respectively, the Issuer, on the one hand, or Purchaser, on the other hand (such Person or Persons, the “Indemnifying Party”), give written notice
to the latter of the commencement of such action; provided, however, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this paragraph, except
to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually materially prejudiced by such failure to give notice, and in no event shall such failure relieve the Indemnifying Party from any other liability which it may have to such Indemnified Party. If
any such claim or action shall be brought against an Indemnified Party, and it shall notify the Indemnifying Party thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it wishes, to assume the defense
thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, and after notice from the Indemnifying Party to such Indemnified Party of its election to assume the 

  
 -16-

 
defense thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to such Indemnified Party under this paragraph for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in
connection with the defense thereof, other than reasonable cost of investigation; provided, further, that if, in the Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment, a conflict of interest between the Indemnified Party and the
Indemnifying Party exists in respect of such claim, then such Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of such claim and to employ one firm of attorneys at the Indemnifying Party’s expense to represent such
Indemnified Party. No Indemnified Party will consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement without the Indemnifying Party’s written consent to such judgment or settlement, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. No
Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement in respect of which the Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been
sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such claim or proceeding. 

(iv) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this paragraph is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an
Indemnified Party under this paragraph, then each Indemnifying Party shall have a joint and several obligation to contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of the Damages referred to in this paragraph in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and the Indemnified Party on the other hand in connection with the offering which resulted in such Damages, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether an untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or an omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied
by the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statements or omission. The Issuer and Purchaser (in consideration of the
Issuer’s including any Registrable Securities in any Registration Statement filed in accordance with this Section) shall be deemed to have agreed, that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this paragraph were to be
determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method or allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph. The amount paid by an Indemnified Party as a result of the
Damages referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim (which shall be
limited as provided in Section 5.5(e)(iii) if the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of any such action accordance with the provisions thereof) which is the subject of this Section 5.5(e)(iv). Notwithstanding the provisions of this
Section 5.5(e)(iv), Purchaser shall not be required to contribute, in the aggregate, an amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds actually received by the Purchaser for the sale of Registrable Securities in the registered
offering exceeds the amount of damages that Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of
Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party under this paragraph of notice of the commencement of any
action against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution has been made against an Indemnifying Party under this paragraph, such Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of the

  
 -17-

 
commencement thereof if the notice specified in Section 5.5(e)(iii) has not been given with respect to such action; provided, however, that the omission so to notify the
Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability which it may have to any Indemnified Party otherwise under this paragraph, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually materially prejudiced by such
failure to give notice, and in no event shall such failure relieve the Indemnifying Party from any other liability which it may have to such Indemnified Party. 
 (f) Rule 144. The Issuer shall file the reports required to be filed by it under the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, so long as it is subject to such
reporting requirements, all to the extent required from time to time to enable Purchaser to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the 1933 Act within the limits of the exemptions provided by Rule 144. 

(g) Underwritten Registrations. 
 (i) Selection of Underwriter(s). In each registration under this Section, the underwriter or underwriters and managing underwriter or managing underwriters that will administer the offering shall
be selected by the Issuer. 
 (ii) Agreements of Selling Purchaser. Purchaser shall not sell any of its Registrable
Securities in any underwritten offering pursuant to a registration hereunder unless Purchaser (i) agrees to sell such Registrable Securities on a basis provided in any underwriting agreement in customary form, including the making of customary
representations, warranties and indemnities and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents required under the terms of such underwriting agreements or as
reasonably requested by the Issuer (whether or not such offering is underwritten). 
 (h) Transferability.
The rights of Purchaser under this Section and the right to cause the Issuer to register Registrable Shares under this Section may not be assigned by Purchaser to any transferee or assignee of any Registrable Securities.

 6.7 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable
in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to
the full extent permitted by law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 6.8
Expenses. Each party shall bear its own expenses, including without limitation the fees and disbursements of its legal counsel, in connection with the negotiation and preparation of, closing upon and performance under this Agreement or
otherwise in connection with any of the Transaction, except that if either party materially breaches its obligations under this Agreement, it shall be liable to the other party for such damages as shall be recoverable therefore at law or equity
without regard to the foregoing limitation. 
 6.9 Construction. Each provision contained herein shall be construed
(absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other provision contained herein, so that compliance with any one provision shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse compliance with any other
provision. Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any person or entity, or which such person or entity is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such
person or entity. 
 6.10 Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement supersedes all other prior oral or written
agreements between the Purchaser, the Issuer, their Affiliates and persons acting on their behalf with respect to the matters discussed herein, and this Agreement and the instruments referenced herein contain the entire understanding of the parties
with respect to the matters covered herein and therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any confidentiality or nontrading agreement(s) entered into prior to and in contemplation of this Stock Purchase Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
Except as specifically set forth herein or in any other agreement or undertaking, neither the Issuer nor the Purchaser makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters. No provision of this Agreement may be
amended other than by an instrument in writing signed by the Issuer and the Purchaser. No provision hereof may be waived other than by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought. 

6.11 No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted
successors and assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other person other than Indemnitees (as defined in Section 6.12(b), below). 

6.12 Indemnification. 
 (a) Subject to Section 6.1 and in consideration of Purchaser’s execution and delivery of this Agreement and acquiring the Purchased Shares thereunder and in addition to all of the Issuer’s
other obligations under this Agreement, the Issuer shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser and each of its affiliates, general and limited partners, members, officers, directors, and employees and any of the foregoing
persons’ agents or other representatives (including, without limitation, those 

  
 -20-

 
retained in connection with the Transactions) (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnitees”) from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs,
penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee (as hereinafter defined) is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including reasonable
documented attorneys’ fees and disbursements (the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by Purchaser Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or
warranty made by the Issuer in this Agreement or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (b) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Issuer contained in this Agreement or any other
certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, or (c) any cause of action, suit or claim brought or made before the expiration of eighteen (18) months following Closing against such Purchaser Indemnitee by a third
party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of the Issuer) and arising out of or resulting from the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of this Agreement, and the Transactions contemplated hereby,
except to the extent that any such cause of action, suit or claim (including any administrative process by any governmental agency) is based upon actions or omissions of the Indemnitee or its agents or representatives, including
without limitation, Indemnitee’s violation of any provision of the Bank Holding Company Act or the Change in Bank Control Act or corresponding provisions of applicable state laws, or any other federal or state banking law. To the extent that
the foregoing undertaking by the Issuer may be unenforceable for any reason, the Issuer shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. 

(b) Subject to Section 6.1 and in consideration of the Issuer’s execution and delivery of this Agreement and
issuing the Purchased Shares thereunder and in addition to all of Purchaser’s other obligations under this Agreement, the Purchaser shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer and each of its officers, directors and employees
and any of the foregoing persons’ agents or other representatives (collectively, the “Issuer Indemnitees” and collectively with the Purchaser Indemnitees, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all Indemnified
Liabilities incurred by a Issuer Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Purchaser in this Agreement or any other certificate, instrument or
document contemplated hereby or thereby, or (b) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Purchaser contained in this Agreement or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby. To the extent that
the foregoing undertaking by the Purchaser may be unenforceable for any reason, the Purchaser shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law.

 (c) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnitee under this Section 6.12 of notice of the commencement of any
action or proceeding (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving an Indemnified Liability, such Indemnitee shall, if a claim for indemnification in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this
Section 6.12, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the 

  
 -21-

 
commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly
noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnitee; provided, however, that an Indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel with fees and
expenses of not more than one counsel for such Indemnitee to be paid by the indemnifying party, only if, in the reasonable opinion of the Indemnitee, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnitee and the indemnifying party would be
inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnitee and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding; and provided further, in no event shall the indemnifying party be liable for fees and
expenses of more than one counsel in addition to its own counsel for all Indemnitees in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances.
The Indemnitee shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or Indemnified Liabilities by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information
reasonably available to the Indemnitee that relates to such action or Indemnified Liabilities. The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnitee fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect
thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent, provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or
condition its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld conditioned or delayed, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other
compromise which (i) does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnitee of a release from all liability in respect to such Indemnified Liabilities or litigation, (ii) requires any
admission of wrongdoing by such Indemnitee, or (iii) obligates or requires an Indemnitee to take, or refrain from taking, any action. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights
of the Indemnitee with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement
of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnitee under this Section, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in its ability to defend such action. 

(d) The indemnification required by this Section 6.12 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during
the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received by the Indemnitee and transmitted to the indemnifying party or as and when other Indemnified Liabilities are incurred. 

6.13 No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to
express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party. 
 6.14 Payment Set
Aside. To the extent that the Issuer makes a payment or payments to Purchaser hereunder or Purchaser enforces or exercises its rights hereunder, and such payment or payments or 

  
 -22-

 
the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required
to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Issuer, a trustee, receiver or any other person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, foreign, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to
the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

 6.15 Termination. 
 This Agreement may be terminated, and the Transactions contemplated hereby abandoned, at any time prior to the Closing Date: 

(a) by the mutual written consent of Purchaser and the Issuer; 

(b) by either Purchaser or the Issuer if, for reasons other than breach by the terminating party of any obligations under
this Agreement, Closing is not held by the close of business on August 24, 2012; or 
 (c) by either
Purchaser or the Issuer if the other party materially breaches its obligations under this Agreement.
