corporations designated by the Board. 
 1.2 Beneficiary. “Beneficiary” means the person or persons (and their heirs)
designated as Beneficiary in a Director’s Beneficiary Designation (attached as Exhibit C) to whom the deceased Director’s benefits are payable. If no Beneficiary is so designated, then the estate of the Director will be deemed the
Beneficiary.

from Service” means, consistent with Code Section 409A(2)(a)(i), the Director’s death, retirement, or termination of service from the Board of the Bank following a failure to be reappointed or reelected to the Board. For these
purposes, a Director shall not be deemed to have a Separation from Service until the Director no longer serves on the Board of the Bank, the Company, or any member of a controlled group of corporations with the Bank or Company within the meaning of
Treasury Regulation §1.409A-1(a)(3). A Director will not be deemed to have a Separation from Service if the Bank anticipates the Director becoming an employee of the Association. 

ARTICLE II 
 PARTICIPATION AND
DEFERRAL COMMITMENTS 
 2.1 Eligibility. Eligibility to participate in the Plan shall be limited to non-employee members of the
Board of Directors of the Bank. 
 2.2 Participation. Each participating Director of the Bank shall have the right to elect to defer
the receipt of all or any part of the compensation to which such Director would otherwise be entitled as director’s fees or committee fees, with such deferred compensation to be payable at the time or times and in the manner herein stated. Each
new Director electing to defer the receipt of compensation shall execute and deliver to the Bank an “Initial Deferral Election Form with Distribution Options,” in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by reference.
Such election shall be applicable only to compensation earned for services rendered after the date of such election. Notwithstanding the foregoing, deferral elections that were in effect on the effective date of this amendment and restatement of the
Plan shall be treated as continuing in effect until the Director makes a change to his or her election in the manner indicated below. 
 2.3
Changes in Participation. An election to defer compensation shall continue in effect until revoked, provided however, that every election to defer compensation shall be irrevocable as to compensation earned for services performed prior to the
date of such revocation. Partial or complete revocation as to unearned compensation shall be made in writing in the form of Notice of Adjustment of Deferral attached hereto as Exhibit B to be furnished by the Bank and signed by the Director and
shall be effective upon the January 1st of the year stated therein providing the form is executed and delivered to the Bank by
December 15th of the 

  
 3 

 
previous calendar year. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, a Director who previously filed a deferral election with the Bank may elect to change his form of payment to another
permissible form of payment (e.g., from a lump sum to installments, or vice versa) by filing with the Bank a Transition Year Election Form, attached hereto as Exhibit D, provided that such election is made by the later of December 31, 2007, or
the last day of the transition period under Code Section 409A. 
 2.4 Determination of Earnings. Interest on compensation
deferred hereunder shall be credited and compounded monthly at a rate equivalent to one and one-half percent (1-1/2%) below the Prime Rate as shown in The Wall Street Journal on the third Wednesday of each month. Should the third Wednesday be
a holiday, the Prime Rate shown on the third Tuesday (less 1-1/2%) shall be the rate used. 
 ARTICLE III 

PLAN BENEFITS 
 3.1
Plan Benefit. No compensation so deferred shall be payable to a Director until the Director’s death or Disability, or other Separation from Service from office of such Director, whereupon all such deferred compensation, together with
interest thereon as hereinafter provided, shall be payable to such Director or his/her beneficiary in a single cash lump-sum payment, commencing within thirty (30) days from the Director’s date of death, termination due to Disability, or
other Separation from Service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Director may designate an optional installment payment method in the Initial Deferral Election Form with Distribution Options (Exhibit A) or the Transition Year Election Form (Exhibit
D), as applicable, as herein provided in which event the first such installment shall be paid commencing within thirty (30) days of the date of the event that triggered the distribution and shall be payable in approximately equal monthly
installments over a period not to exceed ten (10) years as elected by the Director. 
 3.2 Grandfathered Deferrals. As permitted
under Section 5 of the Plan as originally amended and restated effective January 1, 2005, with respect to amounts deferred and interest earned on amounts deferred on or before December 31, 2004, the Board of Directors, in its sole
discretion, may pay out the undisbursed portion of such deferred compensation, together with interest thereon, in a lump sum at any time, provided, however, that the Board of Directors shall not have the discretion to pay out amounts deferred on or
after January 1, 2005, or interest on amounts deferred on or after January 1, 2005, except in accordance with the terms of the Director’s written election entered into at the time of deferral or in accordance with Section 4.1(b)
hereof. 
 ARTICLE IV 

AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF THE PLAN 

4.1 Amendment and Termination of the Plan. 

(a) Partial Termination. Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, the Bank reserves the exclusive right to freeze or
to amend the Plan at any time with respect to compensation to be earned in the future, provided that no amendment to the Plan shall be effective to decrease or restrict the amount accrued to the date of such amendment. 

  
 4 

 (b) Complete Termination. Subject to the requirements of Code Section 409A, in the
event of complete termination of the Plan, the Plan shall cease to operate and the Bank shall pay out to each Director his benefit as if the Director had terminated service as of the effective date of the complete termination. Such complete
termination of the Plan shall occur only under the following circumstances and conditions: 
  

	 	(i)	The Board may terminate the Plan within 12 months of a corporate dissolution taxed under Code Section 331, or with approval of a bankruptcy court pursuant to 11 U.S.C. §503(b)(1)(A), provided that the amounts
deferred under the Plan are included in the Director’s gross income in the latest of (i) the calendar year in which the Plan terminates; (ii) the calendar year in which the amount is no longer subject to a substantial risk of
forfeiture; or (iii) the first calendar year in which the payment is administratively practicable. 

  

	 	(ii)	The Board may terminate the Plan by Board action taken within the 30 days preceding a Change in Control (but not following a Change in Control), provided that the Plan shall only be treated as terminated if all
substantially similar arrangements sponsored by the Bank are terminated so that the Directors and all participants under substantially similar arrangements are required to receive all amounts of compensation deferred under the terminated
arrangements within 12 months of the date of the termination of the arrangements. 

  

	 	(iii)	The Board may terminate the Plan at any time provided that (i) all arrangements sponsored by the Bank that would be aggregated with this Plan under Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(c) if the Director
covered by this Plan was also covered by any of those other arrangements are also terminated; (ii) no payments other than payments that would be payable under the terms of the arrangement if the termination had not occurred are made within 12
months of the termination of the arrangement; (iii) all payments are made within 24 months of the termination of the arrangements; and (iv) the Bank does not adopt a new arrangement that would be aggregated with any terminated arrangement
under Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(c) if the Director participated in both arrangements, at any time within three years following the date of termination of the arrangement. 

ARTICLE V 
 BENEFICIARY

 Each Director may designate one or more Beneficiaries in the Beneficiary Designation Form attached hereto as Exhibit C to receive all
sums due to such Director upon his/her death. Such Beneficiary designation may be revoked or amended by such Director, from time to time, by delivering to the Bank a new Beneficiary Designation Form. In the absence of any properly completed
Beneficiary Designation Form or in the event that no designated Beneficiary shall be living at the time of the death of the Director, all deferred compensation and interest accrued to the date of death of the Director shall be payable to the
Director’s surviving spouse, or if none, to the estate of such deceased Director.

 ARTICLE VI 

MISCELLANEOUS 
 6.1 In the
event that any person to whom compensation is distributable under the terms of this Plan shall be unable to properly manage his or her own affairs by reason of physical or mental disability, in the judgment of the management of the Bank, payment of
all sums due may be made to a duly appointed personal representative, conservator or guardian, or to any person, firm or corporation furnishing or providing support and maintenance to such distributee. The Bank and its officers and Directors shall
be fully and completely exonerated from all liability to any distributee upon make payment in accordance with the terms of this paragraph. 

6.2 No compensation accrued or payable by virtue of the terms of this Plan shall be assignable or transferable by any Director or any
beneficiary, neither of whom shall have any right to anticipate, hypothecate, assign or transfer any rights hereunder except to a trust established by the Director for the benefit of the Director or his/her beneficiary. 

6.3 The terms of the Plan hereof cannot be amended, modified or supplemented, except to comply with applicable laws of the State and Federal
governments and the rules and regulations of any agency or instrumentality thereof having supervisory or regulatory jurisdiction over the Bank. This Plan has been amended following the enactment of Code Section 409A and is intended to be
construed consistent with the requirements of that Section, the Final Regulations and other guidance issued thereunder. If any provision of the Plan shall be determined to be inconsistent therewith for any reason, then the Plan shall be construed,
to the maximum extent possible, to give effect to such provision in a manner consistent with Code Section 409A, and if such construction is not possible, as if such provision had never been included. In the event that any of the provisions of
the Plan or portion thereof are held to be inoperative or invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction, then (1) insofar as is reasonable, effect will be given to the intent manifested in the provisions held to be inoperative, and
(2) the invalidity and enforceability of the remaining provisions will not be affected thereby. In the event that future guidance requires additional amendments to the Plan, such amendments shall be made and applied retroactively, if necessary.
The terms hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Bank and upon each Director so electing to defer compensation pursuant hereto and his/her beneficiary. 

6.4 Title to and beneficial ownership of any assets, which the Bank may earmark to pay the deferred compensation hereunder, shall at all times
remain in the Bank. The Director and his/her designated beneficiary shall not have any property interest whatsoever in any specific assets of the Bank. 

6.5 The singular number used herein will include the plural number unless the context of the Plan requires otherwise. 

6.6 This Plan shall permit the acceleration of the time or schedule of a payment to pay any taxes that may become due at any time that the
arrangement fails to meet the requirements of Code Section 409A and the Final Regulations and other guidance promulgated thereunder. Such payments shall not exceed the amount required to be included in income as the result of the failure to
comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A. 

  
 6 

 6.7 Except as specifically permitted herein or in other sections of this Plan, no acceleration of
the time or schedule of any payment may be made hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, payments may be accelerated hereunder by the Bank, in accordance with the provisions of Final Regulations Section 1.409A-3(j)(4) and any subsequent
guidance issued by the United States Treasury Department. Accordingly, payments may be accelerated, in accordance with requirements and conditions of the Final Regulations (or subsequent guidance) in the following circumstances: (i) as a result
of certain domestic relations orders; (ii) in compliance with ethics agreements with the Federal government; (iii) in compliance with ethics laws or conflicts of interest laws; (iv) in limited cash-outs (but not in excess of the limit
under Code Section 402(g)(1)(B)); (v) in the case of certain distributions to avoid a non-allocation year under Code Section 409(p); (vi) to apply certain offsets in satisfaction of a debt of the Director to the Bank;
(vii) in satisfaction of certain bona fide disputes between the Director and the Bank; or (viii) for any other purpose set forth in the Final Regulations and subsequent guidance.

TRANSITION YEAR ELECTION FORM 

Instructions: If you are a participant in the Investors Savings Bank Amended and Restated Deferred Directors Fee Plan (the “Plan”), and
you previously filed a distribution election form with Investors Savings Bank (the “Bank”) in which you elected the form of benefit (e.g., lump sum, monthly installments) you will receive under the Plan, you have a limited period of time
to use this Transition Year Election Form to elect to change your previous distribution options. For example, if you previously elected to receive your Plan benefits in monthly installments upon your Separation from Service with the Bank, you may
use this Transition Year Election Form to change your form of benefit to a lump sum distribution. 
 Due to IRS rules, individuals who participate in
the Plan during 2007 must complete this form no later than December 31, 2007 or, if later, the last day of the transition period under Code Section 409A. You may not use this form to change your distribution elections with respect
to payments that are scheduled to be made to you in 2007, or otherwise to cause payments to be made to you in 2007. 
  

			
	Print Name:	 	  

 I am a participant in the Investors Savings Bank Amended and Restated Deferred Directors Fee Plan, which was
originally effective March 1, 1998, and was restated effective                      2007. The Plan provides that benefits will be paid upon my
Separation from Service (as defined in the Plan), death or termination of employment due to Disability (as defined in the Plan). Internal Revenue Code Section 409A provides that I must affirmatively elect the form of payment of my nonqualified
deferred compensation benefits provided under the Plan. I previously filed an election with the Bank to receive my benefits in one form of payment, and I now wish to change my distribution options by completing this Transition Year Election Form. I
understand that I may not make an election to cause payments to be made in 2007, or to change the form of payment of benefits that are scheduled to begin in 2007. 

Note: If you do not wish to change your form of payment under a previously filed Initial Deferral Election Form with Distribution Options (or
other similar election form), then you do not need to complete this Transition Year Election Form. 
 Separation from Service Election

 Accordingly, in the event that I am entitled to benefits under the Plan upon my Separation from Service (other than due to Disability), I
hereby elect that my benefits will be paid in the following manner (please select only one optional form of benefit): 

             Approximately equal monthly installments for a period of
                     years (not to exceed 10 years). 

             Lump Sum Distribution. 

  
 12 

 Disability Election 

In the event that I am entitled to benefits under the Plan upon my termination of employment due to Disability, I hereby elect that my benefits will be paid in
the following manner (please select only one optional form of benefit): 

             Approximately equal monthly installments for a period of
                     years (not to exceed 10 years). 

             Lump Sum Distribution. 

Death Election 
 In the event of my death prior to
my termination of employment due to Disability or other Separation from Service, I hereby elect that my benefits will be paid to my beneficiary(ies) in the following manner (please select only one optional form of
benefit): 
              Approximately equal monthly installments for
a period of                      years (not to exceed 10 years). 

             Lump Sum Distribution. 

I understand that none of the benefits paid from the Plan are eligible for tax-free rollover and I will be required to pay income tax on the amounts when they
are paid to me.
