Exhibit 10.18

INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION AWARD AGREEMENT

NORTHFIELD BANCORP, INC. 2008 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

          This Agreement is provided to                                         
(“Participant” or “You”) by Northfield Bancorp, Inc.
(the “Company”) as of January 30, 2009 (the “Grant Date”), the date the Committee appointed by the
Board of Directors of the Company awarded the Participant Incentive Stock Options (“Option”)
pursuant to the Northfield Bancorp, Inc. 2008 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2008 Plan”), subject to
the terms and conditions of the 2008 Plan. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not
otherwise defined, have the meanings assigned to such terms in the 2008 Plan. The holder of this
Option hereby accepts such award subject to all the terms and provisions of the 2008 Plan, and
should refer to the 2008 Plan for all terms and provisions of this Option.

	1.	 	Grant Date. January 30, 2009.
	 
	2.	 	Number of Shares of Stock Subject to Option. ###                    ### shares of Stock (“Shares”),
subject to adjustment as may be necessary pursuant to Article 3 of the 2008 Plan.
	 
	3.	 	Exercise Price per Share: $9.94
	 
	4	 	Expiration Date: January 30, 2019
	 
	5	 	Stock Appreciation Rights (“SARs”). Unless otherwise indicated below by the Company, SARs
are hereby granted with respect to all Options granted pursuant to Section 2 above. If
granted, SARs will operate in tandem with the Options such that the exercise of one will cause
the cancellation of the other. If the Participant exercises SARs, the Participant will not be
required to pay an exercise price and will be entitled to receive Shares of the Company equal
in value to the difference between the Fair Market Value (“FMV”) of the Shares on the date of
exercise and the exercise price of the related Options (which will be canceled).

	 	Example: 	 	Participant receives 1,000 Options and related SARs. The Options have an
exercise price of $12. When the Company stock is trading at $18 per share, the
Participant exercises 300 SARs. Because the Participant has exercised SARs, the
Participant does not have to pay the exercise price. The Participant receives 100
shares of the Company stock as follows:

	 	 	 	 	 
	 	$18	 	 	Shares

	 	- $12	 	 	Exercise Price

	 

	 	$6	 	 	SAR Value

	 	x 300	 	 	SARs Exercised

	 

	 	$1,800 / $18	 	 	Total Value  ̧ FMV of Shares = 100 shares

NOTE: By marking the box below with an “X” where indicated and crossing out item 5 above,
the Company hereby indicates that, notwithstanding the foregoing, SARs have not been granted in
conjunction with grants of Options under this Agreement.

	 	o	 	No SARs have been awarded to the Participant under this Agreement.

	6.	 	Vesting Schedule. Unless sooner vested in accordance with the terms of the Plan, the Option,
and if applicable, SARs, shall vest (become exercisable) in accordance with the following
schedule:

	 	 	 	 	 
	 	 	Number of Shares/SARs	 	 
	Percentage Vested	 	Available for Exercise	 	Vesting Date
	20%

	 	###___###
	 	January 30, 2010
	20%
	 	###___###
	 	January 30, 2011
	20%
	 	###___###
	 	January 30, 2012
	20%
	 	###___###
	 	January 30, 2013
	20%
	 	###___###
	 	January 30, 2014

	7.	 	Effect of Termination of Service on Option. If your employment with the Company or any
Subsidiary terminates for any reason other than as set forth in the 2008 Plan, your Option
will be exercisable only as to those shares that were immediately exercisable at the date of
termination and may be exercised only for a period of three months following termination.
	 
	8.	 	Exercise of Option. You may exercise your Option by providing:

	 	(a)	 	a written Notice of Exercise of Incentive Stock Option (see Exhibit A to this
Agreement) delivered to the Company; and
	 
	 	(b)	 	payment to the Company in full for the Shares subject to the exercise in
accordance with the terms of the 2008 Plan.

	9.	 	Exercise of SAR. If applicable, You may exercise your SAR by providing a written Notice of
Exercise of Stock Appreciation Right (see Exhibit B to this Agreement) delivered to the
Company.
	 
	10.	 	Payment of Taxes. There are no regular federal or state income or employment tax liabilities
upon the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option, provided the holding periods set forth in the
2008 Plan are satisfied, although the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of the Shares
on the date of exercise over the Exercise Price will be treated as income for alternative
minimum tax (“AMT”) purposes and may subject You to AMT in the year of exercise. If You
dispose of the Shares received upon exercise before satisfying the required holding period
(e.g., in a “disqualifying disposition”), You will be subject to income taxes, and possibly,
capital gains on the sale. You should check with your tax advisor regarding the applicable
tax treatment.
	 
	11.	 	Plan Controls. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the 2008
Plan. In the event of any actual or alleged conflict between the provisions of the 2008 Plan
and the provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of the 2008 Plan will control.
	 
	12.	 	Notice. Notices and communications under this Agreement must be in writing and delivered in
the manner set forth in Section 7.16 of the Plan. Notices to the Company must be addressed
to:

NOTICE OF EXERCISE OF INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION

          I,                                              
                (print name), hereby exercise the stock option (the
“Option”) granted to me by Northfield Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) or its affiliate, subject to
all the terms and provisions set forth in the Incentive Stock Option Award Agreement (the
“Agreement”) and the Northfield Bancorp, Inc. 2008 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) referred to
therein, and notify the Company of my desire to purchase                                          shares of common stock
of the Company (“Shares”) for a purchase price of $                     per share.

          Enclosed please find (check one or more, as applicable):

	 	     	 	Cash, personal, certified or cashier’s check in the sum of $                    , in
full/partial payment of the purchase price.
	 
	 	     	 	Stock of the Company with a fair market value of $                     in full/partial
payment of the purchase price.*
	 
	 	     	 	My check in the sum of $                     and stock of the Company with a fair
market value of $                    , in full/partial payment of the purchase price.*
	 
	 	     	 	Please sell                      shares from my Option shares through a broker in
full/partial payment of the purchase price.

          I hereby represent that it is my intention to acquire these shares for the following purpose:

	 	     	 	investment
	 
	 	     	 	resale or distribution

          Please note: if your intention is to resell (or distribute within the meaning of Section 2(11)
of the Securities Act of 1933) the shares you acquire through this Option exercise, the Company or
transfer agent may require an opinion of counsel that such resale or distribution would not violate
the Securities Act of 1933 prior to your exercise of such Option.

	 	 	 	 	 
	Date:
                                        ,

	 	Participant’s signature	 	 

 

*   If I elect to exercise by exchanging shares I already own, I will constructively
return shares that I already own to purchase the new option shares. If my shares are in
certificate form, I must attach a separate statement indicating the certificate number of the
shares I am treating as having exchanged. If the shares are held in “street name” by a registered
broker, I must provide the Company with a notarized statement attesting to the number of shares
owned that will be treated as having been exchanged. I will keep the shares that I already own and
treat them as if they are shares acquired by the option exercise. In addition, I will receive
additional shares equal to the difference between the shares I constructively exchange and the
total new option shares that I acquire.

NOTICE OF EXERCISE OF STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHT

          I,                                             
                 (print name), hereby exercise                                          stock
appreciation rights (“SARs”) with respect to Options granted to me by Northfield Bancorp, Inc. (the
“Company”) or its affiliate, subject to all the terms and provisions set forth in the related
Incentive Stock Option Award Agreement (the “Agreement”) and the Northfield Bancorp, Inc. 2008
Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).

          I understand that the exercise of the above number of SARs will cause the cancellation of the
same number of Options granted under the Agreement. I also understand that by exercising the above
SARs, I will not be required to pay the exercise price of the related Options and will be entitled
to receive Shares of the Company equal in value to the positive difference between the Fair Market
Value of the Shares on the date of exercise and the exercise price of the related Options, provided
however, that no fractional Shares will be issued to me.

          I hereby represent that it is my intention to acquire these shares for the following purpose:

	 	     	 	investment
	 
	 	     	 	resale or distribution

          I understand that I am subject to income tax on my SAR exercise and that the Company is
required to withhold applicable income taxes. I understand that unless I write a check to the
Company to cover the applicable withholding taxes, the Company may retain a number of shares from
those to be distributed to me to cover the minimum taxes that the Company is required to withhold.

          Please note: if your intention is to resell (or distribute within the meaning of Section 2(11)
of the Securities Act of 1933) the shares you acquire through this SAR exercise, the Company or
transfer agent may require an opinion of counsel that such resale or distribution would not violate
the Securities Act of 1933 prior to your exercise of such SAR.

          This Agreement is provided to                                          (“Participant” or “You”) by Northfield Bancorp,
Inc. (the “Company”) as of January 30, 2009 (the “Grant Date”), the date the Committee appointed by
the Board of Directors of the Company awarded the Participant a Restricted Stock Award pursuant to
the Northfield Bancorp, Inc. 2008 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2008 Plan”), subject to the terms and
conditions of the 2008 Plan. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined,
have the meanings assigned to such terms in the 2008 Plan. The holder of this Restricted Stock
Award hereby accepts such award subject to all the terms and provisions of the 2008 Plan, and
should refer to the 2008 Plan for all terms and provisions of this Restricted Stock Award.

	1.	 	Grant Date. January 30, 2009 (“Grant Date”).
	 
	2.	 	Number of Shares of Stock Subject to Awards. ###                    ### shares of Stock (“Shares”),
subject to adjustment as may be necessary pursuant to Article 3 of the 2008 Plan.
	 
	3.	 	Vesting Schedule. The restrictions imposed under Section 4 hereof will expire as to the
following shares awarded hereunder, on the respective vesting dates (“Vesting Date”); provided
that the Participant is still employed by or in service with the Company or any Subsidiary on
the respective Vesting Dates and no event, as described in the 2008 Plan, has occurred that
would result in the Vesting Dates being accelerated:

	4.	 	Restrictions. The unvested Shares underlying your Restricted Stock Award are subject to the
following restrictions until they vest, expire or terminate (the “Restricted Period”).

	 	(a)	 	Restricted Stock is subject to the vesting schedule in Section 3 of this
Agreement.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Restricted Stock may not be sold, transferred, exchanged, pledged,
hypothecated, assigned or otherwise encumbered.
	 
	 	(c)	 	If your employment or service with the Company or any Subsidiary terminates for
any reason other than as set forth in the 2008 Plan, then You will forfeit all of your
rights, title and interest in and to the unvested Restricted Stock (including any
accumulated dividends) as of the date of termination, and the unvested Restricted
Stock, and accumulated dividends thereon, shall revert to the Company under the terms
of the 2008 Plan.

	5.	 	Delivery of Shares. Once the Shares are vested (see vesting schedule), the Shares (and
accumulated dividends) will be distributed in accordance with your instructions. Delivery of
the Shares will comply with all applicable laws (including federal securities laws), and the
applicable requirements of any securities exchange. Issuance of the Shares may be made on a
non-certificated basis, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law or applicable rules of
the applicable stock exchange.
	 
	6.	 	Voting and Dividend Rights. As beneficial owner of the Shares of Restricted Stock, You have
full voting rights with respect to the Shares during and after the Restricted Period. Cash
dividends declared

 

 

	 	 	on your Shares will be held by the Company during the Restricted Period and will be paid to
You as soon as practicable, but no later than two and one-half months after the Vesting Date
of each share to which a dividend relates. No earnings will accrue on declared but unpaid
cash dividends on unvested Restricted Stock. Stock dividends will vest and be earned at the
same time and in the same manner as the Share on which the stock dividends are paid. If You
forfeit your rights under this Agreement, You will no longer have any rights as a
stockholder with respect to the unvested Restricted Stock and You will forfeit all dividends
on such unvested Restricted Stock.
	 
	7.	 	Payment of Taxes. You may make an election to be taxed upon your Restricted Stock Award
under Section 83(b) of the Code (“83(b) Election”) within 30 days of the Grant Date. If You
make an 83(b) Election, You will be responsible for remitting an amount to the Company
sufficient to pay all applicable withholding taxes. If You do not make an 83(b)
Election, upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Award the Committee is entitled to require
as a condition of delivery: (i) that You remit an amount sufficient to satisfy any and all
federal, state and local (if any) tax withholding requirements and employment taxes (e.g.,
FICA and FUTA); (ii) that the withholding of such sums come from compensation otherwise due to
You or from Shares due to You under the 2008 Plan; or (iii) any combination of the foregoing.
Alternatively, employees may request the Company to withhold a number of shares sufficient to
satisfy the minimum tax withholding. Any withholding shall comply with Rule 16b-3 or any
amendments or successive rules. Directors who are not employees of the Company are
self-employed and not subject to tax withholding.
	 
	8.	 	Plan Controls. The terms contained in the 2008 Plan are incorporated into and made a part of
this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
2008 Plan. In the event of any actual or alleged conflict between the provisions of the 2008
Plan and the provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of the 2008 Plan will control.
