The Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion, may impose such other
restrictions on the Restricted Shares, whether unissued or currently outstanding

subject to the same restrictions on transferability and forfeitability as the
Restricted Shares with respect to which they were paid. With respect to
Restricted Shares awarded to a Section 16 Person, any dividend or distribution
that constitutes an "equity security" under Section 16 of the 1934 Act shall be

Period of Restriction on the Restricted Shares with respect to which the
dividend or distribution is paid, or (b) six (6) months.

or its transfer agents or registrars, and delivered to the Participant (or
beneficiary).

Participant shall not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise
alienated or hypothecated until the end of the applicable Period of Restriction
and the removal of the legend with respect to such Shares as set forth in

remove any restrictions, or extend the duration in which restrictions on Shares
issued under the Plan are to be in effect; provided that the Period of
Restriction on Shares granted to a Section 16 Person may not lapse until at
least six (6) months after the Grant Date. After the restrictions have lapsed,
the Participant shall be entitled to have any legend or legends under Section
6.3 and 10.1 removed from his or her Share certificate(s), and the Shares shall
be freely transferable by the Participant.

SECTION VIII.     CHANGE IN CONTROL

8.1 VESTING. If a Change in Control occurs, all Shares outstanding under an
Award with respect to which the restrictions under this Plan have not lapsed
shall no longer be subject to such restrictions and will become immediately
vested in the Participant notwithstanding any contrary vesting periods specified
in this Plan.

8.2 RIGHT TO ALTER. The occurrence of a Change in Control shall not limit the
Compensation Committee's authority to take any action, in its sole discretion,
as permitted under the terms of this Plan.

SECTION IX.        OTHER PROVISIONS

9.1 BOARD PROVISIONS. Any Award under the Plan may be subject to such other
provision (whether or not applicable to the Award to any other Participant) as
the Board determines to be appropriate, including, without limitation,
provisions for the forfeiture of and restrictions on the sale, resale or other
disposition of Shares acquired under any Award, provisions giving the
Corporation the right to repurchase Shares acquired under any Award, provisions
to comply with Federal and state securities laws, any shareholder agreements
between the Corporation and shareholders or understandings or conditions as to
the Participant's employment in addition to those specifically provided for
under the Plan.

SECTION X.        ENDORSEMENT OF SHARE CERTIFICATES

10.1 LEGEND. Certificates for the Shares issued pursuant to the Plan shall be
endorsed as follows: "The stock evidenced by this certificate is subject to the
restrictions stated in, and is transferable only in accordance with, the
provisions of the Brunswick Bancorp Restricted Stock Award Plan, as may be
amended from time to time."

SECTION XI.       NO RIGHT TO CONTINUED EMPLOYMENT

11.1 NO RIGHTS HEREUNDER. Nothing contained herein or in any instrument
designating an officer or employee a Participant or evidencing the grant of an
Award hereunder shall confer upon any Participant any right with respect to
continued employment by the Corporation or limit in any way the right of the
Corporation to terminate the Participant's employment at any time for any reason
whatsoever.

SECTION XII.       TERMINATION  AND AMENDMENT; DURATION OF PLAN

12.1 AMENDMENT. The Board may terminate at any time or from time to time amend
or suspend the Plan in accordance with any applicable requirements as provided
for in (i) Federal, state or local laws, or (ii) rules or regulations that are
required by an exchange on which the Shares are listed or traded. However, no
such amendment shall, without the prior approval of the voting stockholders of
the Corporation, increase the aggregate number of Shares for issuance as Awards
under this Plan or increase the amount or type of Awards that may be granted
under the Plan. In addition, no amendment, suspension or termination of this
Plan shall alter or impair any rights or obligations under any Award previously
granted under the Plan without the consent of the Participant to whom such Award
was made.

12.2 DURATION. No Award may be granted more than 10 years after the date of
adoption of the Plan, during any suspension of the Plan or after the Plan has
been terminated. The Plan shall commence as of the Effective Date.

SECTION XIII.     INTERNAL REVENUE CODE SS.83(B) ELECTION

13.1 ELECTION. In accordance with Section 83 of the Code, the Participant shall
have the right to include the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the Grant Date
in his gross income for Federal income tax purposes in the year of such Award,
provided, however, that he provides a copy of such election to the Corporation
within 30 days after the election is made.

SECTION XIV.      WITHHOLDING

14.1 REQUIREMENTS. Whenever income taxes are payable with respect to Shares, the
Corporation shall have the right to require a Participant to remit to the
Corporation an amount sufficient to satisfy any Federal, state and local
withholding tax requirements.

14.2 WITHHOLDING ARRANGEMENTS. The Compensation Committee, in its sole
discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time,
may permit or require a Participant to satisfy all or part of the tax
withholding obligations in connection with an Award by (a) having the
Corporation withhold otherwise deliverable Shares or (b) delivering to the
Corporation already-owned Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount
required to be withheld. The amount of the withholding requirement shall be
deemed to include any amount which the Compensation Committee determines, not to
exceed the amount determined by using the maximum Federal, state or local
marginal income tax rates applicable to the Participant with respect to the
Award on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined. The
Fair Market Value of the Shares to be withheld or delivered shall be determined
as of the date that the taxes are required to be withheld.

XIV.                       MISCELLANEOUS

15.1 BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION. A Participant may file with the Compensation
Committee a written designation of a beneficiary or beneficiaries (subject to
the approval of the Compensation Committee and the limitations that the
Compensation Committee may prescribe) to receive, in the event of the death of
the Participant, benefits under this Plan. A Participant may from time to time

                                      -41-
<PAGE>

revoke or change the beneficiary designation under the Plan provided, however,
that if the Compensation Committee shall be in doubt as to the right of any such
beneficiary to receive any benefit under the Plan, the Compensation Committee
may determine to recognize only a disposition to the legal representative of the
recipient, in which case the Corporation, the Committee and the members thereof
shall not be under any further liability to anyone.

15.2 UNFUNDED PLAN. The Plan is intended to constitute an "unfunded" plan for
incentive and deferred compensation. With respect to any payments or deliveries
of Shares not yet made to a Participant by the Corporation, nothing contained
herein shall give any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor
of the Corporation.

15.3 GOVERNING LAW. The Plan shall be construed, administered and enforced
according to the laws of the State of New Jersey, without regard to the choice
of law provisions thereof.

15.4 GENDER AND NUMBER. The masculine gender, wherever used, shall include the
feminine and neuter genders, and the singular shall include the plural, and vice
versa, unless the context clearly requires otherwise.

15.5 HEADINGS. The headings contained in the Plan are for reference only and not
intended to be a part of, or to affect the meaning or interpretation of, the
provisions of this Plan.

XVI.              EFFECTIVE DATE OF PLAN

16.1 Upon approval of this Plan by the Board and the consent of a majority of
the shareholders of the Corporation, this Plan shall become effective as of
January 1, 2000.
