Without limiting the foregoing, it is understood that any violation of the restrictions set forth in the preceding sentence by any officer, director or employee of Roselle or any investment banker, financial advisor, agent, accountant or other representative retained by Roselle shall be deemed to be a breach of this Section 5.1 by Roselle. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the adoption and approval of this Agreement by Roselle Bank’s depositors at a meeting of the depositors of Roselle, if required under applicable Law, this Section 5.1(a) shall not prohibit Roselle from furnishing nonpublic information regarding Roselle to, or entering into discussions or negotiations, or otherwise communicate in any way with, any person in response to an unsolicited Acquisition Proposal that is submitted to Roselle by such person (and not withdrawn) if (1) the Acquisition Proposal constitutes or is reasonably expected to result in a Superior Proposal, (2) Roselle has not breached any of the covenants set forth in this Section 5.1, (3) Roselle’s Board of Directors determines in good faith, after consultation with and based upon the advice of its outside legal counsel, that such action is required in order for the Board of Directors to comply with its fiduciary obligations under applicable law, and (4) at least three (3) Business Days prior to furnishing any non-public information to, or entering into discussions or negotiations, or otherwise communicating in any way with, such person, Roselle gives Columbia written notice of the identity of such person and of Roselle’s intention to furnish non-public information to, or enter into discussions with, such person and Roselle receives from such person an executed confidentiality agreement on terms no more favorable to such person than the confidentiality agreement between Columbia and Roselle.

(b) Roselle will notify Columbia Financial immediately orally (within twenty-four (24) hours) and in writing (within forth-eight (48) hours) of receipt of any Acquisition Proposal, any request for non-public information that could reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, or any inquiry with respect to or that could reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, including, in each case, the identity of the person making such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry and the terms and conditions thereof, and shall provide to Columbia any written materials received by Roselle in connection therewith. Roselle will keep Columbia informed of any developments with respect to any such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry immediately upon the occurrence thereof.

(c) Roselle will immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any parties conducted prior to the date of this Agreement with respect to any of the foregoing.

Roselle and Columbia will promptly notify the other party in writing if it should discover that any representation or warranty made by it in this Agreement was when made, has subsequently become or will be on the Closing Date untrue in any respect. No disclosure pursuant to this Section 5.2 will be deemed to amend or supplement the Disclosure Schedules or to prevent or cure any inaccuracy, misrepresentation, breach of warranty or breach of agreement.

5.3 Access to Information; Confidentiality.

(a) During the period from the date of this Agreement through the earlier of the Effective Time or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article VII, and to the extent permitted by Law, Roselle will permit and will cause Roselle Bank to permit Columbia full access, upon reasonable prior notice and during reasonable business hours, to the properties of such Roselle Entities, and will disclose and make available (together with the right to copy) to Columbia and to the internal auditors, loan review officers, employees, attorneys, accountants and other representatives of Columbia all books, papers and records relating to the assets, stock, properties, operations, obligations and liabilities of the Roselle Entities, including all books of account (including the general ledgers), Tax records, minute books of directors’ and shareholders’ meetings, organizational documents, bylaws, Contracts, filings with any Regulatory Authority, accountants’ work papers, litigation files (including legal research memoranda), documents relating to assets and title thereto (including abstracts, title insurance policies, surveys, environmental reports, opinions of title and other information relating to the real and personal property), Plans affecting employees, securities transfer records and shareholder lists, and any books, papers and records relating to any assets, business activities or prospects in which Columbia may have a reasonable interest, including its interest in planning for integration and transition with respect to the businesses of the Roselle Entities; provided, however, that (i) the foregoing rights granted to Columbia will in no way affect the nature or scope of the representations, warranties and covenants of Roselle set forth herein, and (ii) Roselle will be permitted to keep confidential any information relating to legal matters, regulatory matters or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement that Roselle reasonably believes is subject to legal privilege or other legal protection that would be compromised by disclosure to Columbia. In addition, Roselle will instruct the officers, employees, counsel and accountants of each of the Roselle Entities to be reasonably available for, and respond to appropriate questions of, such Columbia representatives during reasonable business hours and upon reasonable prior notice by Columbia to such individuals, and to cooperate fully with Columbia in planning for the integration of the businesses of the Roselle Entities with the business of Columbia and its Affiliates.

(b) Any confidential information or trade secrets of each of the Roselle Entities received by Columbia, or its Representatives in connection with the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby will be treated confidentially and held in confidence pursuant to the Roselle NDA, and any correspondence, memoranda, records, copies, documents and electronic or other media of any kind containing either such confidential information or trade secrets or both will be destroyed by Columbia or, at Roselle’s request, returned to Roselle if this Agreement is terminated as provided in Article VII.

(e) Within ten (10) Business Days following the end of each calendar month, Roselle will provide Columbia with an updated list of Loans described in Section 3.2(s)(v).

Through the Closing Date, Roselle shall continue to prepare and provide to the Columbia unaudited statements of income for each interim period following the period ended September 30, 2019 (the “Roselle Interim Financial Statements”). As of their respective dates, the foregoing financial statements shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP. The books and records of Roselle shall be maintained in all material respects, in accordance with GAAP and any other applicable legal and accounting requirements and reflect only actual transactions. ▇▇▇▇▇ LLP shall not have resigned (or informed Roselle that it intends to resign) or been dismissed as Roselle’s independent accountants as a result of or in connection with any disagreements with Roselle on a matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure.

5.4 Applications; Consents.

(a) Columbia and Roselle shall cooperate with each other and shall use their reasonable best efforts to prepare and file as soon as practicable after the date hereof, but in any event within 45 days of the date hereof, all necessary applications, notices and filings to obtain all permits, consents, approvals and authorizations of all Governmental Entities that are necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Columbia and Roselle agree that any press releases announcing the execution of this Agreement or the Closing will be in a form prepared by Columbia and reviewed and approved by Roselle (with such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) and will be made on the day of execution of this Agreement (or as soon thereafter as is practicable) and on the Closing Date (or as soon thereafter as practicable), respectively.

5.8 Roselle Depositors Meeting.

(a) If required by the Bank Regulators, Roselle will submit to Roselle Bank depositors this Agreement and any other matters required to be approved or adopted by depositors in order to carry out the intentions of this Agreement. In furtherance of that obligation, Roselle will take, in accordance with applicable Law and its charter and bylaws, all action necessary to call, give notice of, and use its best efforts to convene and hold a meeting of Roselle Bank’s depositors, (the “Roselle Depositors Meeting”) as promptly as practicable for the purpose of considering and voting on approval and adoption of this Agreement and the transactions provided for in this Agreement. Roselle’s Board will use all reasonable best efforts to obtain from Roselle Bank’s depositors a vote approving and adopting this Agreement. Except as provided in this Agreement, (i) Roselle’s Board will recommend to Roselle Bank’s depositors that they vote in favor of the approval and adoption of this Agreement, (ii) the proxy statement Roselle distributes to its depositors shall include a statement to the effect that Roselle’s Board of Directors has recommended that its depositors vote in favor of the approval and adoption of this Agreement, and (iii) neither Roselle’s Board of Directors nor any committee thereof shall withdraw, amend, modify or propose or resolve to withdraw, amend or modify, in a manner adverse to Columbia, the recommendation of Roselle’s Board of Directors that Roselle Bank’s depositors vote in favor of approval and adoption of this Agreement or make any statement in connection with the Roselle Depositors Meeting inconsistent with such recommendation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Roselle’s Board of Directors, after consultation with and based on the advice of counsel, determines in good faith that it would result in a violation of its fiduciary duties under applicable law to recommend this Agreement, then in submitting the Agreement to Roselle Bank’s depositors at the Roselle Depositors Meeting it may submit the Agreement without recommendation, in which case the Board of Directors may communicate the basis for its lack of a recommendation to the depositors in the proxy statement distributed to its depositors or an appropriate amendment or supplement thereto to the extent required by law; provided that prior to submitting the Agreement without recommendation, Roselle shall have complied in all material respects with Section 5.1, including providing Columbia with prompt written notice (and in any event within twenty-four (24) hours) advising it of the decision of Roselle’s Board of Directors to take such action.

5.9 Roselle Proxy Statement.

(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable following the date hereof, if the Bank Regulators require the Roselle Depositors Meeting, Roselle shall prepare and file with Federal Reserve Board, NJDOBI, FDIC and the OCC, a proxy statement and related materials relating to the matters to be submitted to the depositors of Roselle at its Roselle Depositors Meeting (such proxy statement and related materials and any amendments or supplements thereto being individually and collectively referred to as the (“Roselle Proxy Statement”). Upon request, Columbia will furnish to Roselle the information required to be included in the Roselle Proxy Statement with respect to its business and affairs and shall have the right to review and consult with Roselle on the form of, and any characterizations of such information included in, the Roselle Proxy Statement prior to its being filed with the Federal Reserve Board, NJDOBI, FDIC or the OCC, as applicable. Roselle shall use reasonable best efforts to have the Roselle Proxy Statement cleared for use by the Federal Reserve Board, NJDOBI, FDIC or the OCC, as applicable, and to have the Roselle Proxy Statement mailed to Roselle Bank’s depositors as promptly as practicable thereafter. Roselle will advise Columbia, promptly after it receives notice thereof, of the time when the Roselle Proxy Statement has been cleared for use by the Federal Reserve Board, NJDOBI, FDIC or the OCC, as applicable, or any request by the Federal Reserve Board, NJDOBI, FDIC or the OCC, as applicable, for amendment of the Roselle Proxy Statement. If at any time prior to the Effective Time any information relating to Roselle or Columbia or any of their respective affiliates, officers or directors, should be discovered by Roselle or Columbia which should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Roselle Proxy Statement so that such document would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other party hereto and, to the extent required by law, rules or regulations, an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed with the Federal Reserve Board, NJDOBI, FDIC or the OCC, as applicable, and disseminated to Roselle Bank’s depositors.

5.10 Notification of Certain Matters. Each party shall give prompt notice to the other of: (i) any event or notice of, or other communication relating to, a default or event that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would become a default, received by it or any of its Subsidiaries subsequent to the date of this Agreement and prior to the Effective Time, under any contract material to the financial condition, properties, businesses or results of operations of each party and any Subsidiary taken as a whole to which each party or any Subsidiary is a party or is subject; and (ii) any event, condition, change or occurrence which individually or in the aggregate has, or which, so far as reasonably can be foreseen at the time of its occurrence, is reasonably likely to result in, a Material Adverse Effect. Each of the parties hereto shall give prompt notice to the other party of any notice or other communication from any third party alleging that the consent of such third party is or may be required in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

5.11 Employee Benefits Matters.

(a) All persons who are non-contract employees of Roselle Bank immediately prior to the Effective Time and whose employment is not specifically terminated by Roselle at or prior to the Effective Time and with respect to any executive of Roselle Bank who is a party to an employment agreement with Roselle Bank immediately prior to the Effective Time (as disclosed in Section 5.11(e)) and whose employment is not voluntarily or involuntarily terminated immediately prior to the Effective Time (in each case, a “Roselle Continuing Employee”) shall, at the Effective Time, become employees of Columbia Bank (i) at a rate of base pay at least equal to such employee’s rate of base pay immediately prior to the Effective Time; and (ii) will be provided with employee benefits and compensation opportunities that are generally made available to similarly situated employees of Columbia or its Subsidiaries under the terms and conditions of the respective plans and arrangements; provided, however, in no event shall any Continuing Employee be eligible to participate in any frozen plan of Columbia or its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5.11, in no event shall any of Roselle’s employees be officers of Columbia Bank, or have or exercise any power or duty conferred upon such an officer, unless and until duly elected or appointed to such position in accordance with the bylaws of Columbia Bank. All Roselle Continuing Employees shall be employed at the will of Columbia Bank and no contractual right to employment shall inure to such employees because of this Agreement. For a period of one (1) year after the Effective Time, Columbia Bank will not terminate the employment of any non-contract Roselle Continuing Employee, for any reason other than for “cause” (as such term is defined by Columbia, in its sole discretion, in accordance with its ordinary practices and procedures).

(b) In lieu of accepting an offer of employment from Columbia Bank, any non-contract employee of Roselle Bank: (i) who is age 60 or over, or (ii) who elects to terminate his or her employment for good reason, in accordance with the terms set forth in Columbia Disclosure Letter 5.11(b) (for purposes of (i) or (ii) above, such employees are referred to as “Separated Employees”) may elect to participate in an optional service award separation program set forth in Columbia Disclosure Letter 5.11(b); provided, however, that Columbia Bank shall not have any obligation to provide any separation payment under (i) or (ii), above, to any of Roselle Bank employees or Roselle Continuing Employees whose termination of employment occurs due to death, disability, resignation or discharge for cause, or who are entitled to severance benefits or the equivalent thereof under the terms of an individual contract with Roselle Bank or Columbia Bank.

(c) At the sole discretion of Columbia, Columbia may maintain Roselle Bank’s health and welfare plans through the end of the calendar year in which the Effective Time occurs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Columbia determines prior to the Effective Time to terminate one or more of Roselle Bank’s health and/or welfare plans, then at the written request of Columbia, Roselle Bank shall adopt resolutions, to the extent required, providing that one or more of Roselle Bank’s health and welfare plans (excluding any plans that are mutually agreed to in writing between the parties) will be terminated effective immediately prior to the Effective Time (or such later date as requested by Columbia in writing or as may be required to comply with any applicable advance notice or other requirements contained in such plans) and shall arrange for termination of all corresponding insurance policies, service agreements and related arrangements effective on the same date to the extent not prohibited by the terms of such arrangements or, if termination is prohibited on the same date, the earliest possible date following that date that is not prohibited by the terms of such arrangements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no coverage of any of the Roselle Continuing Employees or their dependents shall terminate under any of Roselle Bank’s health and welfare plans prior to the time such Roselle Continuing Employees and their dependents, as applicable, become eligible to participate in the health plans, programs and benefits common to all similarly-situated employees of Columbia and its Subsidiaries and their dependents and, consequently, no Roselle Continuing Employee shall experience a gap in coverage. Columbia shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Roselle Continuing Employees who become covered under health (including dental and vision) plans, programs and benefits of Columbia or any of its Subsidiaries to receive credit for any co-payments and deductibles paid under Roselle Bank’s health (including dental and vision) plans for the plan year in which coverage commences under Columbia’s health plan and to waive any pre-existing conditions under any such plans. Separated Employees of the Roselle Entities and their qualified beneficiaries will have the right to continued coverage under group health plans of Roselle or Columbia, as applicable, in accordance with COBRA. As of the Effective Date, Roselle will recognize all expenses and accrue all liabilities for benefits payable under the Roselle non-qualified deferred compensation plans and supplemental executive retirement arrangements.

(d) Except as provided herein, Columbia shall cause each employee benefit plan of Columbia in which Roselle Continuing Employees are eligible to participate to take into account for purposes of eligibility and vesting under the employee benefit plans of Columbia (but not for purposes of benefit accrual) the service of such employees with Roselle Bank to the same extent as such service was credited for such purpose by Roselle Bank; provided, however, that such service shall not be recognized: (i) for purposes of the six (6) month waiting period for eligibility under the ESOP; or (ii) to the extent that such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits under any of the Columbia Benefit Plans. This Agreement shall not be construed to limit the ability of Columbia to review any employee benefit plan or program from time to time and to make such changes (including terminating any such plan or program) as Columbia deems appropriate. To the extent that the Roselle 401(k) plan is terminated following receipt of a favorable determination letter from the IRS upon termination of the Roselle 401(k) plan, Columbia shall take any steps necessary, including amending the Columbia 401(k) plan, to allow Continuing Employees to roll their account balances from the Roselle 401(k) plan to the Columbia 401(k) plan.

(e) Subject to any regulatory approvals or limitations, Columbia shall honor all obligations under the employment agreements which were disclosed to Columbia prior to September 6, 2019 and which are set forth in the Roselle Disclosure Letter Section 3.2(o), as such employment agreements were subsequently amended as of the date of this Agreement in the form set forth in Roselle Disclosure Letter Section 5.11(e), except to the extent any such agreement is superseded, amended or terminated as of, or following, the Effective Time.

(f) Columbia shall honor all obligations under the 2012 Roselle Amended and Restated Director Retirement Plan (“Roselle DRP”), subject to any regulatory approvals or limitations. Subject to the requirements of Code Section 409A, the lump-sum equivalent of the present value of the benefit due to each current or former director shall be paid to such director in accordance with the terms of the Roselle DRP. Roselle does not maintain or contribute to a rabbi trust or similar funding vehicle and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not cause or require Roselle to establish or make a contribution to a rabbi trust or similar finding vehicle.

(g) Within forty-five (45) days after the date of this Agreement, Columbia shall designate those employees of Roselle Bank who will be eligible to receive a retention bonus from Columbia, in its sole discretion, in the event such employee remains a Roselle Continuing Employee as of the Closing Date and/or through a post-Closing transition period to be determined by Columbia.

(h) This Agreement is an agreement solely between Roselle and Columbia. Except for the indemnification rights provided in Section 5.12, nothing in this Agreement, including this Section 5.11, whether express or implied, confers upon any Roselle Employees, employees of Columbia and its Subsidiaries or any other Person, any rights or remedies, including: (i) any right to employment or recall, (ii) any right to continued employment for any specified period, or (iii) any right to any particular compensation, benefit or aggregate of benefits, or any other term or condition of employment, of any kind or nature whatsoever.

5.12 Indemnification.

(a) From and after the Effective Time, through the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, Columbia agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of the current and former directors, officers and employees of Roselle (each, an “Indemnified Party”), and any person who becomes an Indemnified Party between the date hereof and the Effective Time against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities and amounts paid in settlement incurred in connection with any actual or threatened claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, based in whole or in part on, or arising in whole or in part out of, or pertaining to (i) the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of Roselle or was prior to the Effective Time serving at the request of any such party as a director, officer, employee, trustee or partner of another corporation, partnership, trust, joint venture, employee benefit plan or other entity or (ii) any matters arising in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, to the fullest extent such person would have been indemnified or have the right to advancement of expenses pursuant to Roselle’s charter and bylaws or applicable regulations as in effect on the date of this Agreement and as permitted by applicable law, and Columbia shall also advance expenses as incurred to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, provided that the person to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such person is not entitled to indemnification.

(b) Any Indemnified Party wishing to claim indemnification under Section 5.12(a), upon learning of any such action, suit, proceeding or investigation described above, shall promptly notify Columbia thereof. Any failure to so notify shall not affect the obligations of Columbia under Section 5.12(a) unless and to the extent that Columbia is actually prejudiced as a result of such failure.

(c) Prior to the Effective Time, Roselle will or, if Roselle is unable to, Columbia as of the Effective Time will, obtain a “tail” insurance policy with a claims period of at least six (6) years from and after the Effective Time with respect to directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance (collectively, “D&O Insurance”) with benefits and levels of coverage and deductibles at least as favorable to the Indemnified Parties as the existing policies of the Roselle Entities with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including in connection with this Agreement or the transactions or actions contemplated hereby). Columbia will pay the premium for such D&O Insurance tail policy; provided, however, that in no event will Columbia be required to expend more than 250% of the current amount expended on an annual basis by the Roselle Entities to procure their existing D&O Insurance policies. If Roselle or Columbia for any reason is unable to obtain such tail D&O Insurance policy on or prior to the Effective Time, Columbia will obtain as much as comparable D&O Insurance as is available at a cost in the aggregate for such six (6) year period up to 250% of the current annual premiums expended by the Roselle Entities for their existing D&O Insurance policies.

(d) In the event Columbia or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other person or entity and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger, or (ii) liquidates, dissolves, transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any person or entity, then, and as required each such case, to the extent necessary, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Columbia assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.12.

(e) The provisions of this Section 5.12 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Party and his or her representatives.

5.13 Board Representation /Divisional Board.

(a) Columbia Bank, subject to its corporate governance policies and guidelines, shall take all action necessary to appoint one member of Roselle Bank’s Board of Directors to the Board of Directors of Columbia Bank, effective upon the Effective Time.

(b) Columbia shall take all action necessary to establish and maintain a Divisional Board of Columbia Bank (“Roselle Divisional Board”) for a minimum of a two year period following the Effective Date and to invite the directors of Roselle Bank to join the Roselle Divisional Board, except for any director of Roselle Bank that is identified on Exhibits B-D. Subject to any regulatory approvals or limitations, Roselle Divisional Board members will receive compensation for service on, and attendance at, Roselle Divisional Board meetings equal to the amount of board fees paid annually by Roselle Bank to its non-employee directors as disclosed to Columbia prior to the date of this Agreement and as such fees are set forth on Roselle Disclosure Letter 5.13(b). There shall be no age limitations or age requirements to serve on the Roselle Divisional Board.

5.14 Registration of Columbia Financial Common Stock. Columbia Financial shall take any action required to be taken under any applicable state securities laws in connection with the Merger and Roselle shall furnish all information concerning it as may be reasonably requested in connection with such action.

5.15 Branches. It is expected that there will be no Columbia Bank or ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ closings or relocations or consolidations of exiting branches as part of the Merger.

5.16 Columbia Bank Foundation. Columbia agrees to recommend to the Board of Directors of the Columbia Bank Foundation (the “Columbia Bank Foundation”) that at the Effective Time the Columbia Bank Foundation, in accordance with its charter, guidelines and governing documents, to make charitable contributions of up to $200,000 in the aggregate annually for two years following the Effective Time (for avoidance of doubt, the aggregate amount of the charitable contributions for the two years shall be up to $400,000) to qualified charities as recommended by the Roselle Divisional Board that are consistent with Roselle’s tradition of serving its community.

5.17 Updated Disclosure Letters. On a date fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the Effective Time and on the Effective Time, Roselle will modify any Disclosure Letter to this Agreement or add any Disclosure Letter for the purpose of making the representations and warranties to which any such Disclosure Letter relates true and correct in all material respects as of such date, whether to correct any misstatement or omission in any Disclosure Letter or to reflect any additional information obtained by Roselle subsequent to the date any Disclosure Letter was previously delivered by Roselle to Columbia. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any updated Disclosure Letter will not have the effect of making any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement true and correct in all material respects for purposes of Section 6.2(a).

ARTICLE VII

Termination

7.1 Reasons for Termination. This Agreement may be terminated, and the Merger abandoned, at any time prior to the Effective Time, by action taken or authorized by the Boards of Directors of the terminating party, either before or after any required member/depositor approval, if any:

(a) Mutual Consent. By the mutual written consent of the Boards of Directors of Columbia and Roselle; or

(b) No Depositor Approval. By Columbia or Roselle, in the event of the failure of Roselle Bank’s depositors, if required, to approve the Agreement at the Roselle Depositors Meeting, provided, however, that Roselle shall only be entitled to terminate the Agreement pursuant to this clause if Roselle has complied in all material respects with its obligations under Section 5.8; or

(c) No Regulatory Approval. By either Columbia or Roselle, if either (i) any approval, consent or waiver of a Governmental Entity required to permit consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall have been denied and such denial has become final and non-applicable or (ii) any court or other Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction shall have issued a final, unappealable order enjoining or otherwise prohibiting consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; or

(d) Delay. By either Columbia or Roselle, in the event the Merger shall not have occurred by August 31, 2020, unless the failure to so consummate by such date is due to the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement by the party seeking to terminate; or

(e) Material Breach of Representation, Warranty or Failure to Perform Covenant. By either Columbia or Roselle (provided that the party seeking termination is not then in material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement contained herein), in the event of a breach of any covenant or agreement on the part of the other party set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of the other party shall have become untrue, in either case such that the conditions set forth in Sections 6.2(a) and (b) or Sections 6.3(a) and (b), as the case may be, would not be satisfied and such breach or untrue representation or warranty has not been or cannot be cured within thirty (30) days following written notice to the party committing such breach or making such untrue representation or warranty; or

(f) Failure of Roselle to Recommend Approval. By Columbia if Roselle is required to hold the Roselle Depositor Meeting and (i) the Board of Directors of Roselle does not publicly recommend in any proxy statement utilized in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the approval and adoption of this Agreement or (ii) if, after making such recommendation in any such proxy statement, the Board of Directors of Roselle withdraws, qualifies or revises such recommendation or takes any action in any respect materially adverse to Columbia; or

(g) Superior Proposal. By Roselle, (i) if the Board of Directors of Roselle authorizes Roselle to enter into an agreement with respect to an Acquisition Transaction that the Board of Directors of Roselle has determined is a Superior Proposal and (2) Roselle has not materially breached its obligations under Section 5.1; provided, that Roselle shall not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 7.1(g) and enter into an agreement for an Acquisition Transaction until the expiration of three (3) business days following Roselle’s written notice advising Columbia that Roselle has received a Superior Proposal specifying the material terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal (and including a copy thereof), identifying the person making such Superior Proposal and stating whether Roselle intends to enter into a definitive agreement for an Acquisition Transaction. After providing such notice, Roselle shall provide a reasonable opportunity to Columbia during such three-day period to make such adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement as would enable Roselle to proceed with the transactions contemplated herein on such adjusted terms.

7.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement by either Columbia or Roselle as provided in Section 7.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and, subject to Section 7.4, have no effect, and there shall be no liability on the part of any party hereto or their respective officers and directors, except that (i) Sections 5.3(b) and (c), 7.4 and 8.6, shall survive any termination of this Agreement and (ii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no party shall be relieved or released from any liabilities or damages arising out of the willful breach of any provision of this Agreement.

7.3 Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will be paid by the party incurring such expenses, whether or not the Merger is consummated.

7.4 Termination Fees.

(a) If this Agreement is terminated by (i) Columbia or Roselle pursuant to Section 7.1(e) hereof as a result of the other party’s willful or intentional breach, or willful or intentional failure to perform, in any material respect, its covenants contained in the Agreement, or (ii) Roselle pursuant to Section 7.1(g) hereof, then the breaching party shall pay to the non-breaching party on the date of such termination, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, an amount equal to the out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the non-breaching party in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (as itemized by the non-breaching party), up to $1,500,000, as agreed upon liquidated damages.

(b) If after the date of this Agreement and prior to the termination of this Agreement a bona fide Acquisition Proposal shall have been made known to senior management of Roselle or has been made directly to its depositors generally or any person shall have publicly announced (and not withdrawn) an Acquisition Proposal with respect to Roselle and (i) thereafter this Agreement is terminated by either Roselle or Columbia pursuant to Section 7.1(d) and, if required, Roselle shall have failed to obtain the approval of this Agreement by Roselle Bank’s depositors at the Roselle Depositors Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof at which a vote on the approval of this Agreement was taken or (ii) thereafter this Agreement is terminated by Columbia pursuant to Section 7.1(f), and (iii) prior to the date that is twelve (12) months after the date of such termination, Roselle enters into a definitive agreement or consummates a transaction with respect to an Acquisition Proposal (whether or not the same Acquisition Proposal as that referred to above), then Roselle shall pay Columbia a termination fee of $1,500,000 as agreed upon liquidated damages.

7.5 Waiver. At any time prior to the Effective Time, any party hereto may (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other parties hereto or (b) waive compliance with any of the agreements of any other parties or with any conditions to its own obligations, in each case only to the extent such obligations, agreements and conditions are intended for its benefit.

Any inaccuracies in such representations and warranties are subject to waiver by the parties hereto in accordance herewith without notice or liability to any other person. In some instances, the representations and warranties in this Agreement may represent an allocation among the parties hereto of risks associated with particular matters regardless of the knowledge of any of the parties hereto.

4. The parties hereto acknowledge that the undersigned is entering into this letter agreement solely in his or her capacity as a depositor of Roselle and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this letter agreement, nothing in this letter agreement is intended or shall be construed to require the undersigned, in his or her capacity as a director and/or an executive officer of Roselle, to act or fail to act other than in accordance with his or her fiduciary duties.

5. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Voting Agreement, if the Roselle Bank depositors are not required to approve the Agreement and the Merger, this Voting Agreement will be automatically null and void with no further recourse to any party.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has executed this agreement as of the date first above written.
