               APPENDIX A TO STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT FOR DIRECTORS

                     GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTION

         Section 1. STOCK OPTION. The Company does not intend the Option granted
hereby to be an "incentive stock option" within the meaning of Section 422 of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("Code").

         Section 2. TERM OF AWARD. (a) Subject to Sections 2(b) and 3 hereof,
the Participant shall have the right to purchase all or any portion of the
Shares subject to the Option granted hereby at any time during the period
("Option Period") commencing on the first anniversary of the date such Option
was granted and ending on the earliest of:

                  (i) the close of business on the last day of the three-month
         period commencing on the date the Participant ceases to be a member of
         the board of directors of the Company, other than on account of death,
         Disability or removal for cause in accordance with the Company's
         by-laws, and such person does not continue to serve as an active
         advisory or emeritus director of the Company, or in a similar capacity,
         as determined by the board of directors of the Company;

                  (ii) the close of business on the last day of the one-year
         period commencing on the date the Participant ceases to be a member of
         the board of directors of the Company due to death or Disability;

                  (iii) the date and time when the Participant ceases to be a
         member of the board of directors of the Company due to removal for
         cause in accordance with the Company's by-laws; or

                  (iv) the last day of the 10-year period commencing on the date
         on which the Option was granted.

         (b) Subject to Section 3 hereof, upon termination of the Participant's
service as a director of the Company, any Option granted hereby that is not
exercisable as of the date of such termination shall be forfeited. For purposes
of this Agreement and the Plan, service shall be deemed to continue for so long
as the Participant is serving as an active advisory or emeritus director of the
Company, or in a similar capacity, as determined by the Company's board of
directors.

         Section 3. VESTING. The specified percentage of Shares subject to the
Option granted hereby shall become vested and available for purchase by the
Participant as of the specified vesting date(s); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in the
event of the Participant's death, Disability or Retirement or a Change in
Control of the Company or Bank prior to the applicable vesting date, such
optioned Shares shall become immediately vested and available for purchase as of
the date of such Participant's death, Disability or Retirement or the date of
such Change in Control. In the event of removal for cause, the Option granted
hereby shall expire.

         Section 4. EXERCISE PRICE. During the Option Period, and after the
Option becomes exercisable, the Participant shall have the right to purchase all
or any portion of the Shares subject to the Option at the Exercise Price per
Share.

         Section 5. METHOD OF EXERCISE. Subject to the limitations of the Plan
and this Agreement, the Participant may, at any time during the Option Period
described in Section 2 hereof, exercise his or her right to purchase all or any
part of the Shares to which the Option relates; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
minimum number of Shares which may be purchased at any time shall be 100, or, if
less, the total number of Shares relating to the Option which remain
unpurchased. The Participant shall exercise the Option to purchase Shares by:

                  (a) giving written notice to the Committee, in the form
         attached hereto as Appendix B; and

                  (b) delivering to the Committee full payment of the Exercise
         Price per Share for the Shares to be purchased in one of the methods
         described below.

The date of exercise shall be the earliest date practicable following the date
the requirements of this Section 5 have been satisfied. Payment shall be made in
full in cash (by certified or bank check, or such other instrument as the
Company may accept, made payable to the order of Warwick Community Bancorp,
Inc.) or by one or more of the following: (i) in

                                        1
<PAGE>

the form of Shares already owned by the Participant, duly endorsed for transfer
and with all necessary stock transfer tax stamps attached, having an aggregate
Fair Market Value on the date the Option is exercised equal to the aggregate
Exercise Price to be paid; (ii) by delivering a properly executed exercise
notice to the Company, together with a copy of irrevocable instructions to a
broker to deliver promptly to the Company the amount of sale or loan proceeds to
pay the purchase price; or (iii) by any combination of (i) and (ii). If this
Option qualifies as an incentive stock option, the Participant shall not,
without the prior written approval of the Committee, dispose of the Shares
acquired pursuant to the exercise of the Option until after the later of (i) the
second anniversary of the date on which the incentive stock option was granted,
or (ii) the first anniversary of the date on which the Shares were acquired.

         Section 6. DELIVERY OF OPTIONED SHARES. As soon as is practicable
following the date on which the Participant has satisfied the requirements of
Section 5 hereof, the Committee shall take such action as is necessary to cause
the issuance of a stock certificate evidencing the Participant's ownership of
the Shares that have been purchased. The Participant shall have no right to vote
or to receive dividends, nor have any other rights with respect to the Shares,
prior to the date as of which such Shares are transferred to the Participant on
the stock transfer records of the Company, and no adjustments shall be made for
any dividends or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date as
of which such transfer is effected, except as may be required under Section 8.3
of the Plan.

         Section 7. ADJUSTMENTS IN THE EVENT OF REORGANIZATION. In the event of
any merger, consolidation or other business reorganization (including but not
limited to a Change in Control) in which the Company is the surviving entity,
and in the event of any stock split, stock dividend or other event generally
affecting the number of Shares held by each person who is then a shareholder of
record, the number of Shares subject to the Option granted hereby and the
Exercise Price per Share of such Option shall be adjusted in accordance with
Section 8.3 of the Plan to account for such event. In the event of any merger,
consolidation or other business reorganization in which the Company is not the
surviving entity, any Option granted hereby may be canceled and payment made
therefor in accordance with the Plan.

         Section 8. NO RIGHT TO CONTINUED BOARD MEMBERSHIP. Nothing in this
Agreement or the Plan, nor any action of the Board or the Committee with respect
to this Agreement or the Plan, shall be held or construed to confer upon the
Participant any right to a continuation of his or her position as a director of
the Company or any of its affiliates. Notwithstanding the effectiveness of this
Agreement, the Participant may be removed or otherwise dealt with to the same
extent as though this Agreement had not been entered into.

         Section 9. TAXES. The Company shall have the right to deduct from all
amounts paid by the Company in cash with respect to the Option granted hereby
any taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to such Option. Where any
person is entitled to receive Shares pursuant to the exercise of the Option
granted hereby, the Company shall have the right to require such person to pay
to the Company the amount of any tax which the Company is required to withhold
with respect to such Shares, or, in lieu thereof, to retain, or to sell without
notice, a sufficient number of Shares to cover the amount required to be
withheld.

         Section 10. NOTICES. Any communication required or permitted to be
given under the Plan, including any notice, direction, designation, comment,
instruction, objection or waiver, shall be in writing and shall be deemed to
have been given at such time as it is delivered personally or five days after

               APPENDIX A TO STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT FOR EMPLOYEES

                     GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTION

         Section 1. STOCK OPTION. The Company intends the Option granted hereby
to be an "incentive stock option" within the meaning of Section 422 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("Code"). If the Option or any part of
the Option does not qualify as an "incentive stock option" under the Plan or the
Code, the Option or the part not qualifying shall be treated as a Non-Qualified
Stock Option under the Code.

         Section 2. TERM OF AWARD. (a) Subject to Sections 2(c) and 3 hereof,
the Participant shall have the right to purchase all or any portion of the
Shares subject to the Option granted hereby at any time during the period
("Option Period") commencing on the first anniversary of the date such Option
was granted and ending on the earliest of:

                  (i) the close of business on the last day of the three-month
         period commencing on the date of the Participant's termination of
         employment with the Company, other than on account of death or
         Disability, Retirement or a Termination for Cause;

                  (ii) the close of business on the last day of the one-year
         period commencing on the date of the Participant's termination of
         employment with the Company due to death, Disability or Retirement;

                  (iii) the date and time when the Participant ceases to be an
         employee of the Company due to a Termination for Cause; or

                  (iv) the last day of the 10-year period commencing on the date
         on which the Option was granted.

         (b) If the Option qualifies as an incentive stock option, the favorable
tax treatment applicable to incentive stock options may not apply if the Option
is exercised more than three months after the Participant's termination of
employment for reasons other than Disability or death. If the Option qualifies
as an incentive stock option, the favorable tax treatment applicable to
incentive stock options will apply if the Option is exercised within one year
after the Participant's termination of employment due to Disability or death.

         (c) Subject to Section 3 hereof, upon termination of the Participant's
employment with the Company, any Option granted hereby that is not exercisable
as of the date of such termination shall be forfeited. For purposes of this
Agreement and the Plan, employment shall be deemed to continue for so long as

         Price per Share for the Shares to be purchased in one of the methods
         described below.

The date of exercise shall be the earliest date practicable following the date
the requirements of this Section 5 have been satisfied. Payment shall be made in
full in cash (by certified or bank check, or such other instrument as the
Company may accept, made payable to the order of Warwick Community Bancorp,
Inc.) or by one or more of the following: (i) in the form of Shares already
owned by the Participant, duly endorsed for transfer and with all necessary
stock transfer tax stamps attached, having an aggregate Fair Market Value on the
date the Option is exercised equal to the aggregate Exercise Price to be paid;
(ii) by delivering a properly executed exercise notice to the Company, together
with a copy of irrevocable instructions to a broker to deliver promptly to the
Company the amount of sale or loan proceeds to pay the purchase price; or (iii)
by any combination of (i) and (ii). If this Option qualifies as an incentive

the Committee, dispose of the Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of the
Option until after the later of (i) the second anniversary of the date on which
the incentive stock option was granted, or (ii) the first anniversary of the

         Section 6. DELIVERY OF OPTIONED SHARES. As soon as is practicable
following the date on which the Participant has satisfied the requirements of
Section 5 hereof, the Committee shall take such action as is necessary to cause
the issuance of a stock certificate evidencing the Participant's ownership of
the Shares that have been purchased. The Participant shall have no right to vote
or to receive dividends, nor have any other rights with respect to the Shares,
prior to the date as of which such Shares are transferred to the Participant on
the stock transfer records of the Company, and no adjustments shall be made for
any dividends or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date as
of which such transfer is effected, except as may be required under Section 8.3
of the Plan.

         Section 7. ADJUSTMENTS IN THE EVENT OF REORGANIZATION. In the event of
any merger, consolidation or other business reorganization (including but not
limited to a Change in Control) in which the Company is the surviving entity,
and in the event of any stock split, stock dividend or other event generally
affecting the number of Shares held by each person who is then a shareholder of
record, the number of Shares subject to the Option granted hereby and the
Exercise Price per Share of such Option shall be adjusted in accordance with
Section 8.3 of the Plan to account for such event. In the event of any merger,
consolidation or other business reorganization in which the Company is not the
surviving entity, any Option granted hereby may be canceled and payment made
therefor in accordance with the Plan.

         Section 8. NO RIGHT TO CONTINUED EMPLOYMENT. Nothing in this Agreement
or the Plan, nor any action of the Board or the Committee with respect to this
Agreement or the Plan, shall be held or construed to confer upon the Participant
any right to a continuation of his or her position as an employee of the Company
or any of its affiliates. Notwithstanding the effectiveness of this Agreement,
the Participant may be dismissed or otherwise dealt with to the same extent as
though this Agreement had not been entered into.

         Section 9. TAXES. The Company shall have the right to deduct from all
amounts paid by the Company in cash with respect to the Option granted hereby
any taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to such Option. Where any
person is entitled to receive Shares pursuant to the exercise of the Option
granted hereby, the Company shall have the right to require such person to pay
to the Company the amount of any tax which the Company is required to withhold
with respect to such Shares, or, in lieu thereof, to retain, or to sell without
notice, a sufficient number of Shares to cover the amount required to be
withheld.

         Section 10. NOTICES. Any communication required or permitted to be
