INDEMNITY AGREEMENT

 

THIS INDEMNITY AGREEMENT
(this “Agreement”) is entered into on February 23, 2021, by and between Cartesian Growth Corporation, a
Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company”), and __________ (“Indemnitee”).

 

RECITALS

 

WHEREAS, it
is customary to provide officers and/or directors with adequate protection through insurance or adequate indemnification against
claims and actions against them arising out of their service to and activities on behalf of such corporations;

 

WHEREAS, the
board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) has determined that, in order to attract and retain qualified
individuals, the Company will attempt to maintain on an ongoing basis, at its sole expense, liability insurance to protect persons
serving the Company and any of its subsidiaries from certain liabilities;

 

WHEREAS, the Board
believes that traditional insurance may be available to it in the future only at higher premiums and with more exclusions. The
Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Memorandum and Articles”) of the Company provide
for the indemnification of the officers and directors of the Company. Indemnitee may also be entitled to indemnification pursuant
to applicable Cayman Islands law. The Memorandum and Articles provide that the indemnification provisions set forth therein are
not exclusive, and thereby contemplate that contracts may be entered into between the Company and members of the Board, officers
and other persons with respect to indemnification, hold harmless, exoneration, advancement and reimbursement rights;

 

WHEREAS, the
uncertainties relating to such insurance and its scope make the increased protection afforded by indemnification appropriate;

 

WHEREAS, it
is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the Company contractually to obligate itself to indemnify, hold harmless, exonerate and
to advance expenses on behalf of, such persons to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law so that they will serve or continue
to serve the Company;

 

WHEREAS, this
Agreement is a supplement to and in furtherance of the Memorandum and Articles and any resolutions adopted pursuant thereto, and
shall not be deemed a substitute therefor, nor to diminish or abrogate any rights of Indemnitee thereunder; and

 

WHEREAS, Indemnitee
may not be willing to serve as an officer and/or director, advisor or in another capacity without adequate protection, and the
Company desires Indemnitee to serve in such capacity. Indemnitee is willing to serve, continue to serve and to take on additional
service for or on behalf of the Company on the condition that he, she or they be so indemnified.

 

NOW, THEREFORE,
in consideration of the premises and the covenants contained herein and subject to the provisions of the letter agreement dated
as of February 23, 2021 between the Company and Indemnitee pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement among the Company and the underwriters
in connection with the Company’s initial public offering, the Company and Indemnitee do hereby covenant and agree as follows:

is duly elected, appointed or retained or until Indemnitee tenders his, her or their resignation or until Indemnitee is removed.
The foregoing notwithstanding, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect after Indemnitee has ceased to serve as a
director, officer, advisor, key employee or in any other capacity of the Company, as provided in Section 17. This Agreement, however,
shall not impose any obligation on Indemnitee or the Company to continue Indemnitee’s service to the Company beyond any period

4. INDEMNITY
IN PROCEEDINGS BY OR IN THE RIGHT OF THE COMPANY. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company shall indemnify,

shall be indemnified, held harmless and exonerated against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him, her or them or

to indemnification, to be held harmless or to exoneration.

 

5. INDEMNIFICATION

permitted by applicable law, indemnify, hold harmless and exonerate Indemnitee against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred
by him, her or them or on his, her or their behalf in connection therewith. If Indemnitee is not wholly successful in such Proceeding
but is successful, on the merits or otherwise, as to one or more but less than all claims, issues or matters in such Proceeding,
the Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and provided in all cases that Indemnitee acted honestly and
in good faith and in a manner he, she or they reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the Company and, in the case of
a criminal Proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his, her or their conduct was unlawful, indemnify, hold harmless
and exonerate Indemnitee against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him, her or them or on his, her or their behalf
in connection with each successfully resolved claim, issue or matter. If Indemnitee is not wholly successful in such Proceeding,

of a criminal Proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his, her or their conduct was unlawful, indemnify, hold harmless
and exonerate Indemnitee against all Expenses reasonably incurred in connection with a claim, issue or matter related to any claim,
issue, or matter on which Indemnitee was successful. For purposes of this Section 5 and without limitation, the termination of

as to such claim, issue or matter.

 

6. INDEMNIFICATION
FOR EXPENSES OF A WITNESS. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, but subject to Section 27, to the extent
that Indemnitee is, by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status, a witness or deponent in any Proceeding to which Indemnitee

held harmless and exonerated against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee’s behalf
in connection therewith.

to Section 27, the Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify, hold harmless and exonerate Indemnitee
if Indemnitee is a party to or threatened to be made a party to any Proceeding (including a Proceeding by or in the right of the
Company to procure a judgment in its favor) against all Expenses, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement (including
all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of such Expenses, judgments, fines,
penalties and amounts paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the Proceeding, provided
always that Indemnitee acted honestly and in good faith and in a manner he, she or they reasonably believed to be in the best interests
of the Company and, in the case of a criminal Proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his, her or their conduct was
unlawful. No indemnification, hold harmless or exoneration rights shall be available under this Section 7 on account of Indemnitee’s
conduct which constitutes a breach of Indemnitee’s duty.

8. CONTRIBUTION
IN THE EVENT OF JOINT LIABILITY.

 

8.1. To the fullest
extent permissible under applicable law, if the indemnification, hold harmless and/or exoneration rights provided for in this Agreement
are unavailable to Indemnitee in whole or in part for any reason whatsoever, the Company, in lieu of indemnifying, holding harmless
or exonerating Indemnitee, shall pay, in the first instance, the entire amount incurred by Indemnitee, whether for judgments, liabilities,
fines, penalties, amounts paid or to be paid in settlement and/or for Expenses, in connection with any Proceeding without requiring
Indemnitee to contribute to such payment, and the Company hereby waives and relinquishes any right of contribution it may have
at any time against Indemnitee.

 

8.2. The Company shall
not enter into any settlement of any Proceeding in which the Company is jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in
such Proceeding) unless such settlement provides for a full and final release of all claims asserted against Indemnitee.

 

8.3. The Company hereby
agrees to fully indemnify, hold harmless and exonerate Indemnitee from any claims for contribution which may be brought by officers,
directors or employees of the Company other than Indemnitee who may be jointly liable with Indemnitee.

 

9. EXCLUSIONS.
Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement, but subject to Section 27, the Company shall not be obligated under this Agreement
to make any indemnification, advance Expenses, hold harmless or exoneration payment in connection with any claim made against Indemnitee:

 

(i) for
which payment has actually been received by or on behalf of Indemnitee under any insurance policy or other indemnity or advancement
provision, except with respect to any excess beyond the amount actually received under any insurance policy, contract, agreement,
other indemnity or advancement provision or otherwise;

 

(ii) for
an accounting of profits made from the purchase and sale (or sale and purchase) by Indemnitee of securities of the Company within
the meaning of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act or similar provisions of state statutory law or common law; or

 

(iii)  except
as otherwise provided in Sections 14.5 hereof, prior to a Change in Control, in connection with any Proceeding (or any part
of any Proceeding) initiated by Indemnitee, including any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) initiated by Indemnitee against
the Company or its directors, officers, employees or other indemnitees, unless (a) the Board authorized the Proceeding (or
any part of any Proceeding) prior to its initiation or (b) the Company provides the indemnification, hold harmless or exoneration
payment, in its sole discretion, pursuant to the powers vested in the Company under applicable law.

 

10. ADVANCES
OF EXPENSES; DEFENSE OF CLAIM.

 

10.1. Notwithstanding
any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, but subject to Section 27, and to the fullest extent not prohibited by applicable
law, the Company shall pay the Expenses incurred by Indemnitee (or reasonably expected by Indemnitee to be incurred by Indemnitee
within three months) in connection with any Proceeding within ten (10) days after the receipt by the Company of a statement or
statements requesting such advances from time to time, prior to the final disposition of any Proceeding. Advances shall, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, be unsecured and interest free. Advances shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be made
without regard to Indemnitee’s ability to repay the Expenses and without regard to Indemnitee’s ultimate entitlement
to be indemnified, held harmless or exonerated under the other provisions of this Agreement. Advances shall include any and all
reasonable Expenses incurred pursuing a Proceeding to enforce this right of advancement, including Expenses incurred preparing
and forwarding statements to the Company to support the advances claimed. To the fullest extent required by applicable law, such
payments of Expenses in advance of the final disposition of the Proceeding shall be made only upon the Company’s receipt
of an undertaking, by or on behalf of Indemnitee, to repay the advance to the extent that it is ultimately determined that Indemnitee
is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company under the provisions of this Agreement, the Memorandum and Articles, applicable
law or otherwise. If it shall be determined by a final judgment or other final adjudication that Indemnitee was not so entitled
to indemnification, any advancement shall be returned to the Company (without interest) by the Indemnitee. This Section 10.1 shall
not apply to any claim made by Indemnitee for which an indemnification, hold harmless or exoneration payment is excluded pursuant
to Section 9, but shall apply to any Proceeding referenced in Section 9(b) prior to a final determination that Indemnitee is liable
therefor.

 

10.2. The Company will
be entitled to participate in the Proceeding at its own expense.

 

    6

     

    

 

10.3. The Company shall
not settle any action, claim or Proceeding (in whole or in part) which would impose any Expense, judgment, fine, penalty or limitation
on Indemnitee without Indemnitee’s prior written consent.

 

11. PROCEDURE
FOR NOTIFICATION AND APPLICATION FOR INDEMNIFICATION.

 

11.1. Indemnitee agrees
to notify promptly the Company in writing upon being served with any summons, citation, subpoena, complaint, indictment, information
or other document relating to any Proceeding, claim, issue or matter which may be subject to indemnification, hold harmless or
exoneration rights, or advancement of Expenses covered hereunder. The failure of Indemnitee to so notify the Company shall not
relieve the Company of any obligation which it may have to Indemnitee under this Agreement, or otherwise.

 

11.2. Indemnitee may
deliver to the Company a written application to indemnify, hold harmless or exonerate Indemnitee in accordance with this Agreement.
Such application(s) may be delivered from time to time and at such time(s) as Indemnitee deems appropriate in his, her or their
sole discretion. Following such a written application for indemnification by Indemnitee, Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification
shall be determined according to Section 12.1 of this Agreement.

 

12. PROCEDURE
UPON APPLICATION FOR INDEMNIFICATION.

 

12.1. A determination,
if required by applicable law and/or the Memorandum and Articles, with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification
shall be made in the specific case by one of the following methods, which shall be at the election of Indemnitee: (i) by a majority
vote of the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum of the Board, (ii) by a committee of such directors designated
by majority vote of such directors, (iii) if there are no Disinterested Directors or if such directors so direct, by Independent
Counsel in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee, or (iv) by vote of the shareholders
by ordinary resolution. The Company will promptly advise Indemnitee in writing with respect to any determination that Indemnitee
is or is not entitled to indemnification, including a description of any reason or basis for which indemnification has been denied.
If it is so determined that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, payment to Indemnitee shall be made within ten (10) days
after such determination. Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with the person, persons or entity making such determination with
respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification, including providing to such person, persons or entity upon reasonable
advance request any documentation or information which is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and which is reasonably
available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such determination. Any Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with
the person, persons or entity making such determination shall be borne by the Company (irrespective of the determination as to
Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification) and the Company hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Indemnitee harmless therefrom.

 

12.2. In the event
the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 12.1 hereof, the Independent
Counsel shall be selected as provided in this Section 12.2. The Independent Counsel shall be selected by Indemnitee (unless
Indemnitee shall request that such selection be made by the Board), and Indemnitee shall give written notice to the Company advising
it of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected and certifying that the Independent Counsel so selected meets the requirements
of “Independent Counsel” as defined in Section 2 of this Agreement. If the Independent Counsel is selected by
the Board, the Company shall give written notice to Indemnitee advising him, her or them of the identity of the Independent Counsel
so selected and certifying that the Independent Counsel so selected meets the requirements of “Independent Counsel”
as defined in Section 2 of this Agreement. In either event, Indemnitee or the Company, as the case may be, may, within ten
(10) days after such written notice of selection shall have been received, deliver to the Company or to Indemnitee, as the
case may be, a written objection to such selection; provided, however, that such objection may be asserted only on the ground that
the Independent Counsel so selected does not meet the requirements of “Independent Counsel” as defined in Section 2
of this Agreement, and the objection shall set forth with particularity the factual basis of such assertion. Absent a proper and
timely objection, the person so selected shall act as Independent Counsel. If such written objection is so made and substantiated,
the Independent Counsel so selected may not serve as Independent Counsel unless and until such objection is withdrawn or a court
of competent jurisdiction has determined that such objection is without merit. If, within twenty (20) days after submission
by Indemnitee of a written request for indemnification pursuant to Section 11.2 hereof, no Independent Counsel shall have been
selected and not objected to, either the Company or Indemnitee may petition the Cayman Court for resolution of any objection which
shall have been made by the Company or Indemnitee to the other’s selection of Independent Counsel and/or for the appointment
as Independent Counsel of a person selected by the Cayman Court, and the person with respect to whom all objections are so resolved
or the person so appointed shall act as Independent Counsel under Section 12.1 hereof. Upon the due commencement of any judicial
proceeding or arbitration pursuant to Section 14.1 of this Agreement, Independent Counsel shall be discharged and relieved of any
further responsibility in such capacity (subject to the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing).

 

    7

     

    

 

12.3. The Company agrees
to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of Independent Counsel and to fully indemnify and hold harmless such Independent Counsel
against any and all Expenses, claims, liabilities and damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement or its engagement pursuant
hereto.

 

13. PRESUMPTIONS
AND EFFECT OF CERTAIN PROCEEDINGS.

 

13.1. In making a determination
with respect to entitlement to indemnification hereunder, the person, persons or entity making such determination shall presume
that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement if Indemnitee has submitted a request for indemnification in
accordance with Section 11.2 of this Agreement, and the Company shall have the burden of proof to overcome that presumption in
connection with the making by any person, persons or entity of any determination contrary to that presumption. Neither the failure
of the Company (including by the Disinterested Directors or Independent Counsel) to have made a determination prior to the commencement
of any action pursuant to this Agreement that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable
standard of conduct, nor an actual determination by the Company (including by the Disinterested Directors or Independent Counsel)
that Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that
Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct.

 

13.2. If the person,
persons or entity empowered or selected under Section 12 of this Agreement to determine whether Indemnitee is entitled to
indemnification shall not have made a determination within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Company of the request therefor,
the requisite determination of entitlement to indemnification shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be deemed to have
been made and Indemnitee shall be entitled to such indemnification, absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material
fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s statement not materially misleading, in connection
with the request for indemnification, or (ii) a final judicial determination that any or all such indemnification is expressly
prohibited under applicable law; provided, however, that such 30-day period may be extended for a reasonable time, not to exceed
an additional fifteen (15) days, if the person, persons or entity making the determination with respect to entitlement to
indemnification in good faith requires such additional time for the obtaining or evaluating of documentation and/or information
relating thereto.

 

13.3. The termination
of any Proceeding or of any claim, issue or matter therein, by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo
contendere or its equivalent, shall not (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement) of itself adversely affect the
right of Indemnitee to indemnification or create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act honestly and in good faith and in a
manner which he, she or they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company or, with respect
to any criminal Proceeding, that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

 

13.4. For purposes
of any determination of honesty and/or good faith, Indemnitee shall be deemed to have acted in honestly and good faith if Indemnitee’s
action is based on the records or books of account of the Enterprise, including financial statements, or on information supplied
to Indemnitee by the directors, manager, or officers of the Enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal
counsel for the Enterprise, its Board, any committee of the Board or any director, trustee, general partner, manager or managing
member, or on information or records given or reports made to the Enterprise, its Board, any committee of the Board or any director,
trustee, general partner, manager or managing member, by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other
expert selected by the Enterprise, its Board, any committee of the Board or any director, trustee, general partner, manager or
managing member. The provisions of this Section 13.4 shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the other circumstances
in which Indemnitee may be deemed or found to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in this Agreement.

 

    8

     

    

 

13.5. The knowledge
and/or actions, or failure to act, of any other director, officer, trustee, partner, manager, managing member, fiduciary, agent
or employee of the Enterprise shall not be imputed to Indemnitee for purposes of determining the right to indemnification under
this Agreement.

 

14. REMEDIES
OF INDEMNITEE.

 

14.1. In the event
that (i) a determination is made pursuant to Section 12 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification
under this Agreement, (ii) advances of Expenses, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, is not timely made pursuant
to Section 10 of this Agreement, (iii) no determination of entitlement to indemnification shall have been made pursuant to
Section 12.1 of this Agreement within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Company of the request for indemnification, (iv) payment
of indemnification is not made pursuant to Section 5, 6, 7 or the last sentence of Section 12.1 of this Agreement within ten
(10) days after receipt by the Company of a written request therefor, (v) a contribution payment is not made in a timely
manner pursuant to Section 8 of this Agreement, (vi) payment of indemnification pursuant to Section 3 or 4 of this Agreement
is not made within ten (10) days after a determination has been made that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, or (vii) payment
to Indemnitee pursuant to any hold harmless or exoneration rights under this Agreement or otherwise is not made in accordance with
this Agreement within ten (10) days after receipt by the Company of a written request therefor, Indemnitee shall be entitled
to an adjudication by the New York Court to such indemnification, hold harmless, exoneration, contribution or advancement rights.
Alternatively, Indemnitee, at his, her or their option, may seek an award in arbitration to be conducted by a single arbitrator
pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures of the American Arbitration Association. Except as set forth
herein, the provisions of Cayman Islands law (without regard to its conflict of laws rules) shall apply to any such arbitration.
The Company shall not oppose Indemnitee’s right to seek any such adjudication or award in arbitration.

 

14.2. In the event
that a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 12.1 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification,
any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 14 shall be conducted in all respects as a de novo
trial, or arbitration, on the merits and Indemnitee shall not be prejudiced by reason of that adverse determination. In any judicial
proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 14, Indemnitee shall be presumed to be entitled to be indemnified,
held harmless, exonerated to receive advances of Expenses under this Agreement and the Company shall have the burden of proving
Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified, held harmless, exonerated and to receive advances of Expenses, as the case may be,
and the Company may not refer to or introduce into evidence any determination pursuant to Section 12.1 of this Agreement adverse
to Indemnitee for any purpose. If Indemnitee commences a judicial proceeding or arbitration pursuant to this Section 14, Indemnitee
shall not be required to reimburse the Company for any advances pursuant to Section 10 until a final determination is made
with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification (as to which all rights of appeal have been exhausted or lapsed).

 

14.3. If a determination
shall have been made pursuant to Section 12.1 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, the Company shall
be bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 14, absent (i) a
misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s statement
not materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification
under applicable law.

 

14.4. The Company shall
be precluded from asserting in any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 14 that the procedures
and presumptions of this Agreement are not valid, binding and enforceable and shall stipulate in any such court or before any such
arbitrator that the Company is bound by all the provisions of this Agreement.

 

14.5. The Company shall
indemnify and hold harmless Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by law against all Expenses and, if requested by Indemnitee,
shall (within ten (10) days after the Company’s receipt of such written request) pay to Indemnitee, to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law, such Expenses which are incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any judicial proceeding or arbitration
brought by Indemnitee (i) to enforce his, her or their rights under, or to recover damages for breach of, this Agreement or
any other indemnification, hold harmless, exoneration, advancement or contribution agreement or provision of the Memorandum and
Articles now or hereafter in effect; or (ii) for recovery or advances under any insurance policy maintained by any person
for the benefit of Indemnitee, regardless of the outcome and whether Indemnitee ultimately is determined to be entitled to such
indemnification, hold harmless or exoneration right, advancement, contribution or insurance recovery, as the case may be (unless
such judicial proceeding or arbitration was not brought by Indemnitee in good faith).

 

    9

     

    

 

15. SECURITY.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, but subject to Section 27, to the extent requested by Indemnitee and approved
by the Board, the Company may at any time and from time to time provide security to Indemnitee for the Company’s obligations
hereunder through an irrevocable bank line of credit, funded trust or other collateral. Any such security, once provided to Indemnitee,
may not be revoked or released without the prior written consent of Indemnitee.

 

16. NON-EXCLUSIVITY;
SURVIVAL OF RIGHTS; INSURANCE; SUBROGATION

 

16.1. The rights of
Indemnitee as provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Indemnitee may at any time
be entitled under applicable law, the Memorandum and Articles, any agreement, a vote of shareholders or a resolution of directors,
or otherwise. No amendment, alteration or repeal of this Agreement or the Memorandum and Articles or of any provision hereof or
thereof shall limit or restrict any right of Indemnitee under this Agreement or the Memorandum and Articles in respect of any Proceeding
(regardless of when such Proceeding is first threatened, commenced or completed) or claim, issue or matter therein arising out
of, or related to, any action taken or omitted by such Indemnitee in his Corporate Status prior to such amendment, alteration or
repeal. To the extent that a change in applicable law, whether by statute or judicial decision, permits greater indemnification,
hold harmless or exoneration rights or advancement of Expenses than would be afforded currently under the Memorandum and Articles
or this Agreement, then this Agreement (without any further action by the parties hereto) shall automatically be deemed to be amended
to require that the Company indemnifies the Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by law. No right or remedy herein conferred
is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every other right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition
to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or
employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other
right or remedy.

 

16.2. The Memorandum
and Articles permit the Company to purchase and maintain insurance or furnish similar protection or make other arrangements including,
but not limited to, providing a trust fund, letter of credit, or surety bond (each, an “Indemnification Arrangement”)
on behalf of Indemnitee against any liability asserted against him, her or them or incurred by or on behalf of him, her or them
or in such capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or arising out of his, her or their status as such,
whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify him, her or them against such liability under the provisions of this
Agreement. The purchase, establishment, and maintenance of any such Indemnification Arrangement shall not in any way limit or affect
the rights and obligations of the Company or of Indemnitee under this Agreement except as expressly provided herein, and the execution
and delivery of this Agreement by the Company and Indemnitee shall not in any way limit or affect the rights and obligations of
the Company or the other party or parties thereto under any such Indemnification Arrangement.

 

16.3. To the extent
that the Company maintains an insurance policy or policies providing liability insurance for directors, officers, trustees, partners,
managers, managing members, fiduciaries, employees, or agents of the Company or of any other Enterprise which such person serves
at the request of the Company, Indemnitee shall be covered by such policy or policies in accordance with its or their terms to
the maximum extent of the coverage available for any such director, officer, trustee, partner, managers, managing member, fiduciary,
employee or agent under such policy or policies. If, at the time the Company receives notice from any source of a Proceeding as
to which Indemnitee is a party or a participant (as a witness, deponent or otherwise), the Company has director and officer liability
insurance in effect, the Company shall give prompt notice of such Proceeding to the insurers in accordance with the procedures
set forth in the respective policies. The Company shall thereafter use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such insurers to
pay, on behalf of Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of such Proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policies.

 

16.4. In the event
of any payment under this Agreement, the Company, to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall be subrogated to the extent of
such payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee, who shall execute all papers required and take all action necessary
to secure such rights, including execution of such documents as are necessary to enable the Company to bring suit to enforce such
rights. No such payment by the Company shall be deemed to relieve any insurer of its obligations.

 

    10

     

    

 

16.5. The Company’s
obligation to indemnify, hold harmless, exonerate or advance Expenses hereunder to Indemnitee who is or was serving at the request
of the Company as a director, officer, trustee, partner, manager, managing member, fiduciary, employee or agent of any other Enterprise
shall be reduced by any amount Indemnitee has actually received as indemnification, hold harmless or exoneration payments or advancement
of expenses from such Enterprise. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, but subject to Section
27, (i) Indemnitee shall have no obligation to reduce, offset, allocate, pursue or apportion any indemnification, hold harmless,
exoneration, advancement, contribution or insurance coverage among multiple parties possessing such duties to Indemnitee prior
to the Company’s satisfaction and performance of all its obligations under this Agreement, and (ii) the Company shall
perform fully its obligations under this Agreement without regard to whether Indemnitee holds, may pursue or has pursued any indemnification,
advancement, hold harmless, exoneration, contribution or insurance coverage rights against any person or entity other than the
Company.

 

16.6. Notwithstanding
anything contained herein, the Company is the primary indemnitor, and any indemnification or advancement obligation of the Sponsor
or its affiliates or members or any other Person is secondary.

 

17. DURATION
OF AGREEMENT. All agreements and obligations of the Company contained herein shall continue during the period Indemnitee serves
as a director or officer of the Company or as a director, officer, trustee, partner, manager, managing member, fiduciary, employee
or agent of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other Enterprise which Indemnitee
serves at the request of the Company and shall continue thereafter so long as Indemnitee shall be subject to any possible Proceeding
(including any rights of appeal thereto and any Proceeding commenced by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 14 of this Agreement)
by reason of his Corporate Status, whether or not he, she or they is or are acting in any such capacity at the time any liability
or expense is incurred for which indemnification or advancement can be provided under this Agreement.

 

18. SEVERABILITY.
If any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever:
(i) the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation,
each portion of any Section, paragraph or sentence of this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal
or unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and
shall remain enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law; (ii) such provision or provisions shall be deemed reformed
to the extent necessary to conform to applicable law and to give the maximum effect to the intent of the parties hereto; and (iii) to
the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, each portion of any Section, paragraph
or sentence of this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that is not itself invalid,
illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to the intent manifested thereby.

 

19. ENFORCEMENT
AND BINDING EFFECT.

 

19.1. The Company expressly
confirms and agrees that it has entered into this Agreement and assumed the obligations imposed on it hereby in order to induce
Indemnitee to serve as a director, officer or key employee of the Company, and the Company acknowledges that Indemnitee is relying
upon this Agreement in serving as a director, officer or key employee of the Company.

 

19.2. Without limiting
any of the rights of Indemnitee under the Memorandum and Articles of the Company as they may be amended from time to time, this
Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes
all prior agreements and understandings, oral, written and implied, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter
hereof.

 

19.3. The indemnification,
hold harmless, exoneration and advancement of expenses rights provided by or granted pursuant to this Agreement shall be binding
upon and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns (including any direct or indirect successor
by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company), shall
continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or a director, officer,
trustee, general partner, manager, managing member, fiduciary, employee or agent of any other Enterprise at the Company’s
request, and shall inure to the benefit of Indemnitee and his, her or their spouse, assigns, heirs, devisees, executors and administrators
and other legal representatives.

 

    11

     

    

 

19.4. The Company shall
require and cause any successor (whether direct or indirect by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all, substantially
all or a substantial part, of the business and/or assets of the Company, by written agreement in form and substance satisfactory
to Indemnitee, expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company
would be required to perform if no such succession had taken place.

 

19.5. The Company and
Indemnitee agree herein that a monetary remedy for breach of this Agreement, at some later date, may be inadequate, impracticable
and difficult of proof, and further agree that such breach may cause Indemnitee irreparable harm. Accordingly, the parties hereto
agree that Indemnitee may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, enforce this Agreement by seeking, among other things, injunctive
relief and/or specific performance hereof, without any necessity of showing actual damage or irreparable harm and that by seeking
injunctive relief and/or specific performance, Indemnitee shall not be precluded from seeking or obtaining any other relief to
which he, she or they may be entitled. The Company and Indemnitee further agree that Indemnitee shall, to the fullest extent permitted
by law, be entitled to such specific performance and injunctive relief, including temporary restraining orders, preliminary injunctions
and permanent injunctions, without the necessity of posting bonds or other undertaking in connection therewith. The Company acknowledges
that in the absence of a waiver, a bond or undertaking may be required of Indemnitee by a Court of competent jurisdiction and the
Company hereby waives any such requirement of such a bond or undertaking to the fullest extent permitted by law.

 

20. MODIFICATION
AND WAIVER. No supplement, modification or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by the parties
hereto. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions
of this Agreement nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver.

 

21. NOTICES.
All notices, requests, demands and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been
duly given (i) if delivered by hand and received for by the party to whom said notice or other communication shall have been directed,

LAW AND CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be construed
in accordance with and governed by the laws of the Cayman Islands, without giving effect to the conflict of law principles thereof.

exclusive jurisdiction of the New York Court for purposes of any action or proceeding arising out of or in connection with this
Agreement; (iii) waive any objection to the laying of venue of any such action or proceeding in the New York Court; and (iv) waive,
and agree not to plead or to make, any claim that any such action or proceeding brought in the New York Court has been brought

23.  IDENTICAL
COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall for all purposes be deemed to

24. MISCELLANEOUS.

against Indemnitee, Indemnitee’s spouse, heirs, executors or personal or legal representatives after the expiration of two
years from the date of accrual of such cause of action, and any claim or cause of action of the Company shall be extinguished and
deemed released unless asserted by the timely filing of a legal action within such two-year period; provided, however, that if
any shorter period of limitations is otherwise applicable to any such cause of action such shorter period shall govern. The period
of limitations set forth in this Section 25 shall no longer be applicable in the case of fraud, gross negligence and willful misconduct.

 

26. ADDITIONAL
ACTS. If for the validation of any of the provisions in this Agreement any act, resolution, approval or other procedure is
required, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company undertakes to cause such act, resolution, approval or other procedure
to be affected or adopted in a manner that will enable the Company to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement.

 

27.  WAIVER
OF CLAIMS TO TRUST ACCOUNT. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Indemnitee hereby agrees that it does
not have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind (each, a “Claim”) in or to any monies in the Trust
Account, and hereby waives any Claim it may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any services provided to the
Company and will not seek recourse against such Trust Account for any reason whatsoever. Accordingly, Indemnitee acknowledges and
agrees that any indemnification provided hereto will only be able to be satisfied by the Company if (i) the Company has sufficient
funds outside of the Trust Account to satisfy its obligations hereunder or (ii) the Company consummates an initial business combination.

 

28. MAINTENANCE
OF INSURANCE

 

The Company shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to obtain and maintain in effect during the entire period for which the Company is obligated to indemnify the Indemnitee
under this Agreement, one or more policies of insurance with reputable insurance companies to provide the officers/directors of
the Company with coverage for losses from wrongful acts and omissions and to ensure the Company’s performance of its indemnification
obligations under this Agreement. The Indemnitee shall be covered by such policy or policies in accordance with its or their terms
to the maximum extent of the coverage available for any such director or officer under such policy or policies. In all such insurance
policies, the Indemnitee shall be named as an insured in such a manner as to provide the Indemnitee with the same rights and benefits
as are accorded to the most favorably insured of the Company’s directors and officers.

Exhibit 4.0(vi)
DESCRIPTION OF THE REGISTRANT’S SECURITIES
REGISTERED PURSUANT TO SECTION 12 OF THE
SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934

As of December 31, 2020, OceanFirst Financial Corp. (“OceanFirst”), the registrant and the registered banking holding Company or OceanFirst Bank N.A. (“OceanFirst Bank”) had two classes of securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), and preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Preferred Stock”).

Description of Capital Stock

The following is a brief description of the terms of the capital stock of OceanFirst. This summary does not purport to be complete in all respects. This description is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”), OceanFirst’s certificate of incorporation, as amended, and OceanFirst’s bylaws, and, where applicable, federal banking law. Copies of OceanFirst’s certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws have been filed with the Securities Exchange Commission and are also available upon request from OceanFirst.

Common Stock

OceanFirst’s certificate of incorporation currently authorizes the issuance of up to 150,000,000 shares of common stock. As of December 31, 2020, there were (i) 61,040,894 shares of OceanFirst common stock issued and 60,392,043 shares outstanding, (ii) 648,851 shares of OceanFirst common stock held in treasury, (iii) 406,794 shares of OceanFirst common stock reserved for issuance in respect of awards of restricted OceanFirst common stock or 1,016,984 shares upon the exercise of outstanding stock options to purchase shares of OceanFirst common stock granted under certain OceanFirst equity compensation plans and the equity compensation plans of acquired companies, (iv) 27,339 shares reserved for issuance upon the exercise of warrants assumed in connection with the acquisition of Colonial American Bank, and (v) no other shares of capital stock or equity or voting securities of OceanFirst issued, reserved for issuance or outstanding.

OceanFirst common stock is currently listed on the Nasdaq under the symbol “OCFC.”

Preemptive Rights; Redemption Rights; Terms of Conversion; Sinking Fund and Redemption Provisions
OceanFirst common stock does not have preemptive rights, redemption rights, conversion rights, or any sinking fund or redemption provisions.

Voting Rights
The holders of OceanFirst common stock have exclusive voting rights in OceanFirst. They elect the OceanFirst board and act on other matters as are required to be presented to them under Delaware law or as are otherwise presented to them by the OceanFirst board. Generally, holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share and do not have any right to cumulate votes in the election of directors. OceanFirst’s certificate of incorporation provides that stockholders who beneficially own in excess of 10% of the then-outstanding shares of OceanFirst common stock are not entitled to any vote with respect to the shares held in excess of the 10% limit. A person or entity is deemed to beneficially own shares that are owned by an affiliate as well as persons acting in concert with such person or entity. If OceanFirst issues shares of preferred stock, holders of the preferred stock may also possess voting rights. Certain matters require an 80% stockholder vote, which is calculated after giving effect to the provision in OceanFirst’s certificate of incorporation limiting voting rights as described above. OceanFirst stockholders are not permitted to act by written consent.

Liquidation Rights
In the event of OceanFirst’s liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, holders of common stock would be entitled to receive, after payment or provision for payment of all its debts and liabilities, all of the assets of OceanFirst 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. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of OceanFirst Bank, OceanFirst, as the holder of 100% of OceanFirst Bank’s capital stock, would be entitled to receive, after payment or provision for payment of all debts and liabilities of OceanFirst Bank, including all deposit accounts and accrued interest thereon, and after distribution of the balance in the special liquidation account to eligible account holders and supplemental eligible account holders, all assets of OceanFirst Bank available for distribution.

Dividend Rights
Holders of OceanFirst common stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends as may be declared by the OceanFirst board out of legally available funds. The ability of the OceanFirst board to declare and pay dividends on OceanFirst common stock is subject to the terms of applicable Delaware law and banking regulations. If OceanFirst issues shares of preferred stock, the holders thereof may have a priority over the holders of the common stock with respect to dividends. OceanFirst’s principal source of income is dividends that are declared and paid by OceanFirst Bank on its capital stock. Therefore, OceanFirst’s ability to pay dividends is dependent upon its receipt of dividends from OceanFirst Bank. Insured depository institutions such as OceanFirst Bank are prohibited from making capital distributions, including the payment of dividends, if, after making such distribution, the institution would become “undercapitalized,” as such term is defined in the applicable law and regulations. In the future, any declaration and payment of cash dividends will be subject to the OceanFirst board’s evaluation of OceanFirst’s operating results, financial condition, future growth plans, general business and economic conditions, and tax and other relevant considerations. The payment of cash dividends by OceanFirst in the future will also be subject to certain other legal and regulatory limitations and ongoing review by OceanFirst’s banking regulators.

Restrictions on Ownership
Banking laws impose notice, approval and ongoing regulatory requirements on any stockholder or other party that seeks to acquire direct or indirect “control” of a Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured depository institution. These laws include the Bank Holding Company Act and the Change in Bank Control Act. Among other things, these laws require regulatory filings by a stockholder or other party that seeks to acquire direct or indirect “control” of an FDIC-insured depository institution. The determination whether an investor “controls” a depository institution is based on all of the facts and circumstances surrounding the investment. OceanFirst is a bank holding company and therefore the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHC Act”) would require any “bank holding company” (as defined in the BHC Act) to obtain prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board before acquiring more than 5% of OceanFirst common stock. Any person (other than a bank holding company) is required to provide prior notice to the Federal Reserve System before acquiring 10% or more of OceanFirst common stock under the Change in Bank Control Act. Ownership by affiliated parties, or parties acting in concert, is typically aggregated for these purposes. Any person (other than an individual) who (a) owns, controls or has the power to vote 25% or more of any class of OceanFirst’s voting securities; (b) has the ability to elect or appoint a majority of the OceanFirst board; or (c) otherwise has the ability to exercise a “controlling influence” over OceanFirst, is subject to regulation as a bank holding company under the BHC Act.

Preferred Stock
OceanFirst’s certificate of incorporation authorizes the OceanFirst board, without further stockholder action, to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock. OceanFirst’s certificate of incorporation further authorizes the OceanFirst board, subject to any limitations prescribed by law, to provide for the issuance of the shares of preferred stock in series, and by filing a certificate pursuant to the applicable law of the State of Delaware, to establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in each such series, and to fix the designation, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each such series and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof. As of December 31, 2020, there were 57,370 shares issued of OceanFirst Series A Preferred Stock. Preferred stock may be issued with preferences and designations as the OceanFirst board may from time to time determine. The OceanFirst board may, without stockholder approval, issue shares of preferred stock with voting, dividend, liquidation and conversion rights that could dilute the voting power of the holders of OceanFirst common stock and may assist management in impeding an unfriendly takeover or attempted change in control.

Series A Preferred Stock

Ranking
Shares of the Series A Preferred Stock rank, with respect to the payment of dividends and distributions upon  liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up:

•senior to common stock and to any class or series of capital stock OceanFirst may issue that is not expressly stated to be on parity with or senior to the Series A Preferred Stock;
•on parity with, or equally to, any class or series of capital stock expressly stated to be on parity with the Series A Preferred Stock, including the Series A Preferred Stock; and
•junior to any class or series of capital stock expressly stated to be senior to the Series A Preferred Stock (issued with the requisite consent of the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock).

Dividends
Dividends on shares of the Series A Preferred Stock are discretionary and will not be cumulative. Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive, if, when, and as declared by the board of directors or a duly authorized committee of board of directors, out of legally available assets, non-cumulative cash dividends quarterly in arrears on February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning on August 15, 2020 (each such date being referred to herein as a “dividend payment date”) based on a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (equivalent to $25 per depositary share).

If declared by board of directors or a duly authorized committee of board of directors, dividends will accrue from and including the original issue date to, but excluding, May 15, 2025 or the date of earlier redemption (the “fixed rate period”), at a rate of 7.00% per annum. If declared by board of directors or a duly authorized committee of board of directors, dividends will accrue from and including May 15, 2025 to, but excluding, the date of earlier redemption (the “floating rate period”), at a floating rate per annum equal to the Benchmark rate (which is expected to be Three-Month Term SOFR) plus a spread of 684.5 basis points. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Benchmark rate is less than zero, the Benchmark rate shall be deemed to be zero.

Dividends on shares of the Series A Preferred Stock are not cumulative. Accordingly, if board of directors or a duly authorized committee of board of directors does not declare a full dividend on the Series A Preferred Stock payable in respect of any dividend period before the related dividend payment date, such dividend will not accrue and OceanFirst will have no obligation to pay a dividend for that dividend period on the dividend payment date or at any future time, whether or not dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock are declared for any future dividend period.

Priority of Dividends
The Series A Preferred Stock will rank junior as to payment of dividends to any class or series of the preferred stock that OceanFirst may issue in the future that is expressly stated to be senior to the Series A Preferred Stock. If at any time the OceanFirst does not pay, on the applicable dividend payment date, accrued dividends on any shares that rank in priority to the Series A Preferred Stock with respect to dividends, OceanFirst may not pay any dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock or repurchase, redeem, or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of Series A Preferred Stock until OceanFirst has paid, or set aside for payment, the full amount of the unpaid dividends on the shares that rank in priority with respect to dividends that must, under the terms of such shares, be paid before OceanFirst may pay dividends on, repurchase, redeem, or otherwise acquire for consideration, the Series A Preferred Stock. As of the date hereof, there are no other shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding.

So long as any share of Series A Preferred Stock remains outstanding, unless the full dividends for the most recently completed dividend period have been declared and paid, or set aside for payment, on all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock:

•no dividend or distribution shall be declared, paid, or set aside for payment on any junior stock (other than (i) a dividend payable solely in junior stock or (ii) a dividend in connection with the implementation of a stockholders’ rights plan, or the issuance of rights, stock, or other property under any such plan, or the redemption or repurchase of any rights under any such plan);

•no junior stock shall be repurchased, redeemed, or otherwise acquired for consideration by OceanFirst, directly or indirectly (other than (i) as a result of a reclassification of junior stock for or into other junior stock, (ii) the exchange or conversion of shares of junior stock for or into other shares of junior stock, (iii) through the use of the proceeds of a substantially contemporaneous sale of other shares of junior stock, (iv) purchases, redemptions, or other acquisitions of shares of the junior stock in connection with any employment contract, benefit plan, or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of employees, officers, directors, or consultants, (v) purchases of shares of junior stock pursuant to a contractually binding requirement to buy junior stock existing prior to the most recently completed dividend period, including under a contractually binding stock repurchase plan, or (vi) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of junior stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such stock or the security being converted or exchanged) nor shall any monies be paid to or made available for a sinking fund for the redemption of any such securities; and
•no parity stock shall be repurchased, redeemed, or otherwise acquired for consideration by OceanFirst, directly or indirectly (other than (i) pursuant to pro rata offers to purchase all, or a pro rata portion, of the Series A Preferred Stock and any parity stock, (ii) as a result of a reclassification of any parity stock for or into other parity stock, (iii) the exchange or conversion of any parity stock for or into other parity stock or junior stock, (iv) through the use of the proceeds of a substantially contemporaneous sale of other shares of parity stock, (v) purchases of shares of parity stock pursuant to a contractually binding requirement to buy parity stock existing prior to the most recently completed dividend period, including under a contractually binding stock repurchase plan, or (vi) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of parity stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such stock or the security being converted or exchanged) nor shall any monies be paid to or made available for a sinking fund for the redemption of any such securities.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if dividends are not paid in full, or set aside for payment in full, on any dividend payment date upon the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock and any shares of parity stock, all dividends declared upon the Series A Preferred Stock and all such parity stock payable on such dividend payment date shall be declared pro rata in proportion to the respective amounts of undeclared and unpaid dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock and all parity stock payable on such dividend payment date. To the extent a dividend period with respect to any parity stock coincides with more than one dividend period with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock for purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, OceanFirst’s board of directors will treat such dividend period as two or more consecutive dividend periods, none of which coincides with more than one dividend period with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock, or shall treat such dividend period(s) with respect to any parity stock and dividend period(s) with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock for purposes of the immediately preceding sentence in any other manner that it deems to be fair and equitable in order to achieve ratable payments on such dividend parity stock and the Series A Preferred Stock. To the extent a dividend period with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock coincides with more than one dividend period with respect to any parity stock, for purposes of the first sentence of this paragraph, the board of directors shall treat such dividend period as two or more consecutive dividend periods, none of which coincides with more than one dividend period with respect to such parity stock, or shall treat such dividend period(s) with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock and dividend period(s) with respect to any parity stock for purposes of the first sentence of this paragraph in any other manner that it deems to be fair and equitable in order to achieve ratable payments of dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock and such parity stock. For the purposes of this paragraph, the term “dividend period” as used with respect to any parity stock means such dividend periods as are provided for in the terms of such parity stock.

Subject to the foregoing, dividends (payable in cash, stock, or otherwise) may be declared and paid on junior stock, which includes common stock, from time to time out of any assets legally available for such payment, and the holders of Series A Preferred Stock or parity stock shall not be entitled to participate in any such dividend.

Redemption
The Series A Preferred Stock is perpetual and has no maturity date and is not subject to any mandatory redemption, sinking fund, or other similar provisions. The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock will not have any right to require the redemption or repurchase of their shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

OceanFirst may, at its option, redeem the Series A Preferred Stock (i) in whole or in part, from time to time, on May 15, 2025, or on any dividend payment date on or after May 15, 2025, or (ii) in whole but not in part at any time within 90 days following a “regulatory capital treatment event,” in each case at a redemption price equal to $1,000 

per share (equivalent to $25 per depositary share), plus the per share amount of any declared and unpaid dividends, without accumulation of any undeclared dividends, on the Series A Preferred Stock to, but excluding, the date fixed for redemption (the “redemption date”). Any declared but unpaid dividends payable on a redemption date that occurs subsequent to the applicable dividend record date will not be paid to the holder entitled to receive the redemption price on the redemption date, but rather will be paid to the holder of record of the redeemed shares on such record date relating to the applicable dividend payment date. Investors should not expect OceanFirst to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock on or after the date it becomes redeemable at OceanFirst’s option.

If shares of the Series A Preferred Stock are to be redeemed, the notice of redemption shall be given to the holders of record of the Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed, by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the holders of record of such shares to be redeemed at their respective last addresses appearing on OceanFirst’s stock register not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption thereof (provided that, if the shares of Series A Preferred Stock are held in book-entry form through The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”)  may give such notice in any manner permitted by DTC). Each notice of redemption will include a statement setting forth:

•the redemption date;
•the number of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed and, if less than all of the shares held by such holder are to be redeemed, the number of such shares to be redeemed from such holder;
•the redemption price; and
•that dividends on the shares to be redeemed will cease to accrue on the redemption date.

If notice of redemption of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock has been duly given and if the funds necessary for such redemption have been set aside by us for the benefit of the holders of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock so called for redemption, then, on and after the redemption date, dividends will cease to accrue on such shares of Series A Preferred Stock, such shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall no longer be deemed outstanding, and all rights of the holders of such shares will terminate, except the right to receive the redemption price, without interest.

In case of any redemption of only part of the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock at the time outstanding, the shares to be redeemed shall be selected pro rata, by lot, or in such other manner as OceanFirst may determine to be equitable and permitted by DTC and the rules of any national securities exchange on which the Series A Preferred Stock is listed.

Liquidation Rights
In the event that OceanFirst voluntarily or involuntarily liquidate, dissolve, or wind up its affairs, holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive out of OceanFirst’s assets available for distribution to stockholders, after satisfaction of liabilities and obligations to creditors, if any, and subject to the rights of holders of any shares of capital stock then outstanding ranking senior to or on parity with the Series A Preferred Stock with respect to distributions upon the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up of OceanFirst’s business and affairs, including the Series A Preferred Stock, and before OceanFirst makes any distribution or payment out of its assets to the holders of common stock or any other class or series of capital stock ranking junior to the Series A Preferred Stock with respect to distributions upon liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up, an amount per share equal to the liquidation preference of $1,000 per share plus any declared and unpaid dividends prior to the payment of the liquidating distribution (but without any amount in respect of dividends that have not been declared prior to the date of payment of the liquidating distribution). After payment of the full amount of the liquidating distribution described above, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to any further participation in any distribution of OceanFirst’s assets.

In any such distribution, if OceanFirst’s assets are not sufficient to pay the liquidation preference in full to all holders of Series A Preferred Stock and all holders of any shares of capital stock ranking as to any such liquidating distribution on parity with the Series A Preferred Stock, including the Series A Preferred Stock, the amounts paid to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock and to such other shares will be paid pro rata in accordance with the respective aggregate liquidation preferences of those holders. In any such distribution, the “liquidation preference” of any holder of preferred stock means the amount otherwise payable to such holder in such distribution (assuming no limitation on OceanFirst’s assets available for such distribution), including any declared but unpaid dividends (and, in the case of any holder of stock other than the Series A Preferred Stock and on which dividends accrue on a 

cumulative basis, an amount equal to any unpaid, accrued, cumulative dividends, whether or not declared, as applicable). If the liquidation preference per share of Series A Preferred Stock has been paid in full to all holders of Series A Preferred Stock and the liquidation preference per share of any other capital stock ranking on parity with the Series A Preferred Stock as to liquidation rights has been paid in full, the holders of common stock or any other capital stock ranking, as to liquidation rights, junior to the Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive all of the remaining assets according to their respective rights and preferences.

The Series A Preferred Stock may be fully subordinate to interests held by the U.S. government in the event the Company’s enters into a receivership, insolvency, liquidation, or similar proceeding, including a proceeding under the “orderly liquidation authority” provisions of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010.

Neither the sale, conveyance, exchange, or transfer of all or substantially all of OceanFirst’s assets or business, nor the consolidation or merger by OceanFirst with or into any other entity or by another entity with or into OceanFirst, whether for cash, securities, or other property, individually or as part of a series of transactions, will constitute a liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up of its affairs.

Because the OceanFirst is a holding company, the rights and the rights of OceanFirst’s creditors and stockholders, including the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock, to participate in any distribution of assets of any of  OceanFirst’s subsidiaries upon that subsidiary’s liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or winding-up or otherwise would be subject to the prior claims of that subsidiary’s creditors, except to the extent that OceanFirst is a creditor with recognized claims against the subsidiary.

Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are subordinate to all of OceanFirst’s indebtedness and to other non-equity claims on OceanFirst and its assets, including in the event that OceanFirst enters into a receivership, insolvency, liquidation or similar proceeding. In addition, holders of the Series A Preferred Stock (and of depositary shares representing the Series A Preferred Stock) may be fully subordinated to interests held by the U.S. government in the event that OceanFirst enters into a receivership, insolvency, liquidation or similar proceeding.

Voting Rights
Except as provided below and as determined by OceanFirst’s board of directors or a duly authorized committee of  board of directors or as otherwise expressly required by law, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock will have no voting rights.

Whenever dividends on any shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, or any parity stock upon which similar voting rights have been conferred (“special voting preferred stock”), shall have not been declared and paid in an aggregate amount equal to the amount of dividends payable on the Series A Preferred Stock for the equivalent of six or more quarterly dividend periods, whether or not consecutive (which refer to as a “nonpayment”), the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock, voting together as a class with holders of any special voting preferred stock then outstanding, will be entitled to vote (based on respective liquidation preferences) for the election of a total of two additional members of board of directors (which referred to as the “preferred directors”); provided that board of directors shall at no time include more than two preferred directors; provided, further, that the election of any such preferred directors may not cause OceanFirst to violate any corporate governance requirement of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (or any other exchange on which OceanFirst’s securities may be listed). In that event, the number of directors on board of directors shall automatically increase by two and, at the request of any holder of Series A Preferred Stock, a special meeting of the holders of Series A Preferred Stock and such special voting preferred stock, including the Series A Preferred Stock, for which dividends have not been paid shall be called for the election of the two directors (unless such request is received less than 90 days before the date fixed for the next annual or special meeting of stockholders, in which event such election shall be held at such next annual or special meeting of stockholders), followed by such election at each subsequent annual meeting. These voting rights will continue until full dividends have been paid (or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment of such dividends has been set aside for payment) on the Series A Preferred Stock and such special voting preferred stock for four dividend periods following the nonpayment.

If and when full dividends have been paid (or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment of such dividends has been set aside for payment) for at least four dividend periods following a nonpayment on the Series A Preferred 

Stock and such special voting preferred stock, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and such special voting preferred stock shall be divested of the foregoing voting rights (subject to revesting in the event of each subsequent nonpayment) and the term of office of each preferred director so elected shall terminate and the number of directors on OceanFirst’s board of directors shall automatically decrease by two.

Any preferred director may be removed at any time without cause by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock and such special voting preferred stock, voting together as a class, when they have the voting rights described above. So long as a nonpayment shall continue, any vacancy in the office of a preferred director (other than prior to the initial election of the preferred directors) may be filled by the written consent of the preferred director remaining in office, or if none remains in office, by a vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock and such special voting preferred stock, voting together as a class, to serve until the next annual meeting of stockholders; provided that the filling of any such vacancy may not cause OceanFirst to violate any corporate governance requirement of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (or any other exchange on which OceanFirst’s securities may be listed). The preferred directors shall each be entitled to one vote per director on any matter on which OceanFirst’s directors are entitled to vote.

Under regulations adopted by the Federal Reserve, if the holders of one or more series of preferred stock are or become entitled to vote for the election of directors, such series entitled to vote for the same director(s) will be deemed a class of voting securities and a company holding 25% or more of the series, or 10% or more if it otherwise exercises a “controlling influence” over OceanFirst, will be subject to regulation as a bank holding company under the BHC Act. In addition, if the series is/are deemed to be a class of voting securities, any other bank holding company will be required to obtain the prior approval of the Federal Reserve under the BHC Act to acquire or retain more than 5% of that series. Any other person (other than a bank holding company) will be required to obtain the non-objection of the Federal Reserve under the Change in Bank Control Act of 1978, as amended, to acquire or retain 10% or more of that series. While OceanFirst does not believe the shares of Series A Preferred Stock are considered “voting securities” currently, holders of such stock should consult their own counsel with regard to regulatory implications. A holder or group of holders may also be deemed to control OceanFirst if they own one-third or more of OceanFirst’s total equity.

So long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock remain outstanding, in addition to any other vote or consent of stockholders required by law or OceanFirst’s certificate of incorporation, as amended, the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of at least two-thirds of all of the then-outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock entitled to vote thereon, voting separately as a single class, shall be required to:

•authorize, create, issue, or increase the authorized amount of any class or series of OceanFirst’s capital stock ranking senior to the Series A Preferred Stock with respect to payment of dividends or as to distributions upon OceanFirst’s  liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up, or issue any obligation or security convertible into or exchangeable for, or evidencing the right to purchase, any such class or series of  OceanFirst’s capital stock;
•amend, alter, or repeal the provisions of certificate of incorporation, as amended, including the certificate of designation, whether by merger, consolidation, or otherwise, so as to materially and adversely affect the special powers, preferences, privileges, or rights of the Series A Preferred Stock, taken as a whole; or
•consummate a binding share exchange or reclassification involving the Series A Preferred Stock, or complete the sale, conveyance, exchange, or transfer of all or substantially all of OceanFirst’s assets or business or consolidate with or merge into any other corporation, unless, in each case, the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock (i) remain outstanding or (ii) are converted into or exchanged for preference securities of the surviving entity or any entity controlling such surviving entity and such new preference securities have powers, preferences, privileges, and rights that are not materially less favorable to the holders thereof than the powers, preferences, privileges, and rights of the Series A Preferred Stock, taken as a whole.

When determining the application of the voting rights described in this section, the authorization, creation, and issuance, or an increase in the authorized or issued amount, of junior stock or any class or series of capital stock that by its terms expressly provides that it ranks on parity with the Series A Preferred Stock with respect to the payment of dividends (whether such dividends are cumulative or non-cumulative) and as to distributions upon OceanFirst’s liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for junior 

stock or any class or series of capital stock, shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect the special powers, preferences, privileges, or rights, and shall not require the affirmative vote or consent of, the holders of any outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

The foregoing voting provisions will not apply if, at or prior to the time when the act with respect to which such vote would otherwise be required shall be effected, all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall have been redeemed or called for redemption upon proper notice and sufficient funds shall have been set aside by OceanFirst for the benefit of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock to effect such redemption.

Depositary Shares

General
Each depositary share represents a 1/40th interest in a share of the Series A Preferred Stock and will be evidenced by depositary receipts. Subject to the terms of the deposit agreement, the depositary shares will be entitled to all of the powers, preferences, and special rights of the Series A Preferred Stock, as applicable, in proportion to the applicable fraction of a share of Series A Preferred Stock those depositary shares represent. As of December 31, 2020, there were 2,294,811 depositary shares issued.

Dividends and Other Distributions
Each dividend payable on a depositary share will be in an amount equal to 1/40th of the dividend declared and payable on each share of Series A Preferred Stock.

The depositary will distribute all dividends and other cash distributions received on the Series A Preferred Stock to the holders of record of the depositary receipts in proportion to the number of depositary shares held by each holder. If OceanFirst makes a distribution other than in cash, the depositary will distribute property received by it to the holders of record of the depositary receipts in proportion to the number of depositary shares held by each holder, unless the depositary determines that this distribution is not feasible, in which case the depositary may, with OceanFirst’s approval, adopt a method of distribution that it deems practicable, including the sale of the property and distribution of the net proceeds of that sale to the holders of the depositary receipts.

If the calculation of a dividend or other cash distribution results in an amount that is a fraction of a cent and that fraction is equal to or greater than $0.005, the depositary will round that amount up to the next highest whole cent and will request that OceanFirst pay the resulting additional amount to the depositary for the relevant dividend or other cash distribution. If the fractional amount is less than $0.005, the depositary will disregard that fractional amount and it will be added to and be treated as part of the next succeeding distribution.

Record dates for the payment of dividends and other matters relating to the depositary shares will be the same as the corresponding record dates for the Series A Preferred Stock.

The amount paid as dividends or otherwise distributable by the depositary with respect to the depositary shares or the underlying Series A Preferred Stock will be reduced by any amounts required to be withheld by OceanFirst or the depositary on account of taxes or other governmental charges. The depositary may refuse to make any payment or distribution, or any transfer, exchange, or withdrawal of any depositary shares or the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, until such taxes or other governmental charges are paid.

Liquidation Preference
In the event of liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up, a holder of depositary shares will receive the fraction of the liquidation preference accorded each share of underlying Series A Preferred Stock represented by the depositary shares.

Neither the sale, conveyance, exchange, or transfer of all or substantially all of OceanFirst’s assets or business, nor the consolidation or merger by OceanFirst with or into any other entity or by another entity with or into the OceanFirst, whether for cash, securities, or other property, individually or as part of a series of transactions, will constitute a liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up of OceanFirst’s affairs.

Redemption of Depositary Shares
If OceanFirst redeems the Series A Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, depositary shares also will be redeemed with the proceeds received by the depositary from the redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock held by the depositary. The redemption price per depositary share will be 1/40th of the redemption price per share payable with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock (or $25 per depositary share), plus 1/40th of the per share amount of any declared and unpaid dividends, without accumulation of any undeclared dividends, on the Series A Preferred Stock to, but excluding, the redemption date.

If OceanFirst redeems shares of the Series A Preferred Stock held by the depositary, the depositary will redeem, as of the same redemption date, the number of depositary shares representing those shares of the Series A Preferred Stock so redeemed. If OceanFirst redeems less than all of the outstanding depositary shares, the depositary shares to be redeemed will be selected either pro rata or by lot or in such other manner as OceanFirst may determine to be fair and equitable. The depositary will provide notice of redemption to record holders of the depositary receipts not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock and the related depositary shares.

Voting
Because each depositary share represents a 1/40th ownership interest in a share of Series A Preferred Stock, holders of depositary receipts will be entitled to vote 1/40th of a vote per depositary share under those limited circumstances in which holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to vote.

When the depositary receives notice of any meeting at which the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to vote, the depositary will, if requested in writing and provided with all necessary information, provide the information contained in the notice to the record holders of the depositary shares relating to the Series A Preferred Stock. Each record holder of the depositary shares on the record date, which will be the same date as the record date for the Series A Preferred Stock, may instruct the depositary to vote the amount of the Series A Preferred Stock represented by the holder’s depositary shares. To the extent possible, the depositary will vote or cause to be voted the amount of the Series A Preferred Stock represented by depositary shares in accordance with the instructions it receives. OceanFirst will agree to take all reasonable actions that the depositary determines are necessary to enable the depositary to vote as instructed. If the depositary does not receive specific instructions from the holders of any depositary shares representing the Series A Preferred Stock, it will abstain from voting with respect to such shares (but may, at its discretion, appear at the meeting with respect to such shares unless directed to the contrary).

Applicable Anti-Takeover Provisions
Set forth below is a summary of the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws that could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of OceanFirst. The following description is only a summary and it is qualified by reference to the Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws and relevant provisions of the DGCL.

Blank Check Preferred Stock
The Certificate of Incorporation authorizes 5,0000,000 undesignated shares of Preferred Stock and permits OceanFirst’s Board of Directors to issue Preferred Stock with rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to change control of OceanFirst. For example, OceanFirst’s Board of Directors, without stockholder approval, may create or issue Preferred Stock with conversion rights that could adversely affect the voting power of the holders of Common Stock as well as rights to such Preferred Stock, in connection with implementing a stockholder rights plan. This provision may be deemed to have a potential anti-takeover effect, because the issuance of such Preferred Stock may delay or prevent a change of control of OceanFirst. Furthermore, shares of Preferred Stock, if any are issued, may have other rights, including economic rights, senior to Common Stock, and, as a result, the issuance thereof could depress the market price of OceanFirst’s Common Stock.

No Cumulative Voting
The Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws do not provide holders of OceanFirst’s Common Stock cumulative voting rights in the election of directors. The absence of cumulative voting could have the effect of preventing stockholders holding a minority of shares of Common Stock from obtaining representation on Board of Directors. The absence of cumulative voting might also, under certain circumstances, render more difficult or discourage a 

merger, tender offer or proxy contest favored by a majority of OceanFirsty’s stockholders, the assumption of control by a holder of a large block of OceanFirst’s stock or the removal of incumbent management.

Advance Notice Requirements for Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominees
The Bylaws require stockholders seeking to make nominations of candidates for election as directors or to bring other business before a meeting of OceanFirst’s stockholders to provide timely notice of their intent in writing. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice must be delivered to the Secretary at principal executive offices not less than ninety (90) days prior to the date of the annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event that less than one hundred (100) days notice or prior public disclosure of the date of the meeting is given or made to stockholders, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be received not later than the close of business on the 10th day following the day on which such notice of the date of the annual meeting was mailed or such public disclosure was made. A stockholder’s notice must include certain information about the stockholder and the nominee or proposal as specified in the Bylaws. These advance notice provisions may restrict the ability of the stockholders to make nominations for directors at or bring business before a meeting of OceanFirst’s stockholders.

Business Combinations with an Interested Stockholder
The OceanFirst is also subject to Section 203 of the DGCL. Section 203 prohibits OceanFirst from engaging in any business combination (as defined in Section 203) with an “interested stockholder” for a period of three years subsequent to the date on which the stockholder became an interested stockholder unless:

•prior to such date, OceanFirst’s board of directors approve either the business combination or the transaction in which the stockholder became an interested stockholder;upon completion of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owns at least 85% of the outstanding voting stock (with certain exclusions); or
•the business combination is approved by OceanFirst’s board of directors and authorized by a vote (and not by written consent) of at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding voting stock not owned by the interested stockholder.

For purposes of Section 203, an “interested stockholder” is defined as an entity or person beneficially owning 15% or more of OceanFirst’s outstanding voting stock, based on voting power, and any entity or person affiliated with or controlling or controlled by such an entity or person. A “business combination” includes mergers, asset sales and other transactions resulting in financial benefit to a stockholder.

Section 203 could prohibit or delay mergers or other takeover or change of control attempts with respect to OceanFirst and, accordingly, may discourage attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for the shares held by stockholders.

In addition, OceanFirst’s certificate of incorporation provides that a business combination with an interested stockholder requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 80% of the voting power of the then-outstanding shares of voting stock of OceanFirst subject to the 10% voting restriction. The super-majority vote is not required for a business combination with an interested stockholder that is approved by a majority of disinterested directors or meets certain consideration value requirements. An interested stockholder is defined as (1) any person who beneficially owns 10% or more of the voting power of OceanFirst’s voting stock; (2) an affiliate or associate of OceanFirst who, at any time within the two-year period prior to the date in question, was the beneficial owner of 10% or more of the voting power of the then outstanding voting stock of OceanFirst; or (3) an assignee of shares of voting stock which were at any time within the two-year period immediately prior to the date in question beneficially owned by any interested stockholder.

Such provisions may have the effect of deterring hostile takeovers or delaying changes in control of management or  OceanFirst.
