Item 8.01. Other Events.
On February 24, 2015, a
complaint was filed against the Company and the members of its Board of Directors in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Law Division,
Cumberland County, seeking class action status and asserting that the Company and the members of its Board had violated their duties
to the Company’s shareholders in connection with the proposed merger with Cape Bancorp, Inc. Cape Bancorp, Inc. was also
sued, for supposedly aiding and abetting these alleged fiduciary breaches. On or about February 27, 2015, the complaint was supplemented
to seek a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction prohibiting consummation of the merger. The litigation is in its
very early stages, and the Company’s time to answer has not yet run. The Company believes the complaint and other applications
are without merit, and intends to vigorously defend them.
