PART I

Item 1. Business.

On June 29, 2009, we and BCB Bancorp, Inc. a New Jersey corporation (“BCB”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which Pamrapo Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company” or the “Registrant”) will merge with and into BCB, with BCB as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”). Pamrapo Savings Bank, S.L.A. (the “Bank” or “Pamrapo”) and BCB Community Bank, a New Jersey-chartered bank and a wholly-owned subsidiary of BCB (“BCB Bank”), also entered into a plan of bank merger that provides for the merger of the Bank with and into BCB Bank, with BCB Bank as the surviving institution. Our Board of Directors and stockholders, and the Board of Directors and stockholders of BCB, have approved the Merger and the Merger Agreement.

The completion of the Merger is subject to various closing conditions, including approval from the, Federal Reserve Board of Governors, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance. See “Pending Merger with BCB” for a further description of the Merger. The information presented in this Annual Report on Form 10-K does not give effect to the Merger.

The Company was incorporated under Delaware law on June 26, 1989 and changed its state of incorporation from Delaware to New Jersey on March 29, 2001. On November 10, 1989, the Registrant acquired the Bank as a part of the Bank’s conversion from a New Jersey chartered savings association in mutual form to a New Jersey chartered stock savings association. The Registrant is a savings and loan holding company and is subject to regulation by the Office of Thrift Supervision (“OTS”), the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Currently, the Registrant does not transact any material business other than through its sole subsidiary, the Bank.

Pamrapo was organized in 1887 as Pamrapo Building and Loan Association. On October 6, 1952, it changed its name to Pamrapo Savings and Loan Association, a New Jersey chartered savings and loan association in mutual form, and in 1988 it changed its name to Pamrapo Savings Bank, S.L.A. The Bank’s principal office is located in Bayonne, New Jersey. Its deposits are insured up to applicable limits by the Deposit Insurance Fund (the “DIF”) which is administered by the FDIC. At December 31, 2009, the Bank had total assets of $557.8 million, deposits of $445.3 million and stockholders’ equity of $47.9 million before elimination of intercompany accounts with the Company.

On March 6, 2009, the Bank completed its transaction for the sale of assets and transfer of liabilities of the Bank’s Fort Lee, New Jersey banking office, as well as the assignment of the lease for that office, to NewBank, a New York-chartered commercial bank located in Flushing, New York. As of that date, the deposits of the Bank’s Fort Lee branch were approximately $14.5 million. The purchase price for the assets of the branch, which was offset against the amount owed to NewBank for assuming the branch’s deposits, was $500,000. The Bank recorded a gain of $492,000 as a result of the sale.

As a community-oriented institution, the Bank is principally engaged in attracting retail deposits from the general public and investing those funds in fixed-rate one- to four-family residential mortgage loans and, to a lesser extent, in multi-family residential mortgage loans, commercial real estate loans, home equity and second mortgage loans, consumer loans and mortgage-backed securities. The Bank’s revenues are derived principally from interest on loans and mortgage-backed securities, interest and dividends on investment securities and short-term investments, and other fees and service charges. The Bank’s primary sources of funds are deposits and, to a lesser extent, Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (“FHLB-NY”) advances and other borrowings.

Pending Merger with BCB

On June 29, 2009, we and BCB, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, pursuant to which the Company will merge with and into BCB, with BCB as the surviving corporation. The Bank and BCB Bank, also entered into a plan of bank merger that provides for the merger of the Bank with and into BCB Bank, with BCB Bank as the surviving institution.

The completion of the Merger is subject to various closing conditions, including approval from the Federal Reserve Board of Governors, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance. The Merger is intended to qualify as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any stockholder, the Company’s stockholders will receive 1.0 share of BCB common stock for each share of the Company’s common stock. In addition, all outstanding unexercised options to purchase the Company’s common stock will be converted into options to purchase BCB’s common stock.

If the Merger Agreement is terminated by either the Company or BCB due to the following circumstances:

•

the acceptance by either party of a superior proposal that the other party decides not to match;

•

subject to further conditions specified in the Merger Agreement with respect to a control transaction (as such term is defined in the Merger Agreement) involving either party and a person or entity included in a disclosure schedule to the Merger Agreement, the failure to consummate the merger on or before June 30, 2010 caused solely by the other party;

•

subject to further conditions specified in the Merger Agreement with respect to a control transaction (as such term is defined in the Merger Agreement) involving either party and a person or entity included in a disclosure schedule to the Merger Agreement, the failure by either party to obtain the required vote of its stockholders; or

•

subject to further conditions specified in the Merger Agreement with respect to a control transaction (as such term is defined in the Merger Agreement) involving either party and a person or entity included in a disclosure schedule to the Merger Agreement, a material breach by either party of its representations, warranties or covenants in the Merger Agreement, which breach is not cured within the applicable time,

the breaching party must pay a termination fee of $2.5 million to the other party. BCB and the Company agreed to this termination fee arrangement in order to induce each other to enter into the Merger Agreement. The termination fee requirement may discourage other companies from trying or proposing to combine with either BCB or the Company before the merger is completed.

BCB and the Company shall pay the documented fees and expenses of the other party, in an amount not to exceed $750,000, if the terminating party enters into an agreement to be acquired by purchase, consolidation, sale, transfer or otherwise, in one transaction or any related series of transactions, a majority of the voting power of its outstanding securities or substantially all of its consolidated assets, within six months of such termination. However, if the Company enters into such agreement with a party whose name has been previously disclosed to BCB in the Merger Agreement, the Company shall not pay the documented fees and expenses described in this paragraph, but may be required to pay, subject to the conditions in the Merger Agreement, the $2.5 million termination fee described above.

If either BCB or the Company fails to timely pay the termination fee to the other, the non-complying party will be obligated to pay the costs and expenses incurred by the other in connection with any action in which it prevails, taken to collect payment of such amounts, together with interest.

The Merger Agreement contains representations and warranties that the Company and BCB made to each other as of specific dates. The assertions embodied in those representations and warranties were made solely for purposes of the Merger Agreement between the Company and BCB and may be subject to important qualifications and limitations agreed to by the Company and BCB in connection with negotiating its terms. Moreover, the representations and warranties may be subject to a contractual standard of materiality that may be different from what may be viewed as material to stockholders, or may have been used for the purpose of allocating risk between the Company and BCB rather than establishing matters as facts. For the foregoing reasons, no person should rely on the representations and warranties as statements of factual information at the time they were made or otherwise.

This description of the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K dated June 30, 2009, and is incorporated herein by reference.

Market Area

The Bank, which is headquartered in Bayonne, New Jersey, conducts its business through ten retail banking offices, seven of which are located in Bayonne, New Jersey, one in Hoboken, New Jersey, one in Jersey City, New Jersey, and one in Monroe, New Jersey. The Bank’s deposit base is located primarily in Hudson County, with a large concentration in Bayonne, an older, stable, residential community of one-family and two-family residences and middle income families who have lived in the area for many years. The communities in which the Bank’s branches are located are strategically located in the New York City metropolitan area and many residents of these communities commute to Manhattan to work on a daily basis. The Bank’s lending activities have also been concentrated in Hudson County and to a lesser extent in Bergen, Monmouth, Middlesex and Ocean Counties, areas which have had a high level of new development in recent years.

Lending Activities

General . Pamrapo principally originates fixed-rate mortgage loans on one- to four-family residential dwellings for retention in its own portfolio. Before January 2010, the Bank also originated acquisition, development and construction loans in addition to multi-family and commercial real estate loans. The Bank no longer originates these types of loans. At December 31, 2009, the Bank’s total gross loans outstanding amounted to $427.3 million, of which $269.0 million consisted of loans secured by one- to four-family residential properties, $4.7 million consisted of construction and land loans, $144.0 million consisted of loans secured by multi-family and commercial real estate, and $7.4 million consisted of commercial loans. Substantially all of the Bank’s real estate loan portfolio consists of conventional mortgage loans.

Residential Mortgage Lending. Pamrapo presently originates first mortgage loans, equity loans, second mortgage loans and improvement loans secured by one- to four-family residences and multi-family residences. As of December 31, 2009, 96.2% of the gross loan portfolio was fixed-rate loans and 3.8% was ARMs, and was originated for the Bank’s portfolio. Residential loan originations are generally obtained from existing or past

customers and members of the local community. As of December 31, 2009, $330.3 million or 77.3% of the Bank’s total gross loan portfolio consisted of one- to four-family and multi-family residential mortgage loans. Of this amount $269.0 million were one- to four-family loans and $61.3 million were multi-family loans.

The one to four-family residential loans originated by the Bank are primarily fixed-rate mortgages, generally with terms of 15 or 30 years. Typically, such homes in the Bayonne area are one or two-family owner-occupied dwellings. The Bank generally makes one to four-family residential mortgage loans in amounts up to 80% of the appraised value of the secured property. The Bank will originate loans with loan-to-value ratios up to 90% within the local community, provided that private mortgage insurance on the amount in excess of such 80% ratio is obtained. Mortgage loans in the Bank’s portfolio generally include due-on-sale clauses, which provide the Bank with the contractual right to demand the loan immediately due and payable in the event that the borrower transfers ownership of the property that is subject to the mortgage. It is the Bank’s policy to enforce due-on-sale provisions. As of December 31, 2009, the interest rate for one- to four-family residential fixed-rate mortgages offered by the Bank was 4.75% on 15-year loans and 5.25% on 30-year loans.

The Bank also originates loans on multi-family residences. Such residences generally consist of 5 to 24 units. Such loans are generally fixed-rate loans with interest rates ranging from 1.0% to 1.5% higher than those offered on one to four-family residences. The Bank generally makes multi family residential loans in amounts up to 75% of the appraised value of the secured property. Such appraisals are based primarily on the income producing ability of the property. The terms of multi-family residential loans range from 10 to 15 years. As of December 31, 2009, $61.3 million or 14.3% of the Bank’s total gross loan portfolio consisted of multi-family residential loans.

Upon receipt of an application for a mortgage loan from a prospective borrower, a credit report is ordered and employment and income are verified. A preliminary inspection of the subject premises may be made by a member of the Loan Committee. The report of that inspection is brought before the Committee or the full Board of Directors to approve the amount of the loan and the terms. Approval is given subject to a report of value from an independent appraiser and credit approval. Approval of credit is given by the Board of Directors, the Loan Committee, the Vice President of Lending, or the Loan Processing Manager in accordance with the Bank’s policy. It is also the Bank’s policy to obtain title insurance on all first mortgage real estate loans. Borrowers also must obtain hazard insurance and flood insurance, if required, prior to closing. The Bank generally requires borrowers to advance funds on a monthly basis together with each payment of principal and interest to a tax escrow account from which the Bank can make disbursements for items such as real estate taxes and certain insurance premiums, if any, as they become due.

Acquisition, Development, Construction and Land Lending. Before January 2010, the Bank originated loans to finance the construction of one- to four-family dwellings, multi-family dwellings and, to a lesser extent, commercial real estate. It also originated loans for the acquisition and development of unimproved property to be used principally for residential purposes in cases where the Bank was to provide the construction funds to improve the properties. All of the Bank’s acquisition, development and construction loan portfolio is secured by real estate properties located in New Jersey.

Acquisition, development and construction lending is generally considered to involve a higher level of risk than one- to four-family permanent residential lending due to the concentration of principal in a limited number of loans and borrowers and the effects of general economic conditions on development projects, real estate developers and managers. In addition, the nature of these loans is such that they are generally less predictable and more difficult to evaluate and monitor. As of December 31, 2009, $4.7 million or 1.1% of the Bank’s gross loan portfolio consisted of acquisition, development, construction and land loans varying in size from $2,000 to $668,000. The Bank no longer originates these types of loans.

Commercial Real Estate Lending. Loans secured by commercial real estate totaled $82.7 million, or 19.4% of the Bank’s total gross loan portfolio, at December 31, 2009. Commercial real estate loans are generally originated in amounts up to 70% of the appraised value of the property. Such appraised value is determined by an

independent appraiser previously approved by the Bank. The Bank’s commercial real estate loans are secured by improved property such as office buildings, retail stores, warehouses and other non-residential buildings. Once the loan has been determined to be creditworthy and of sufficient property value, in the case of corporate borrowers, the Bank obtains a personal guaranty from third party principals of the corporate borrower as supplemental security on the loan. This enables the Bank to proceed against the guarantor in the event of default without first exhausting remedies against the borrower. Inquiry as to collectability pursuant to such third party guarantees may be made by means of review of other properties secured by the Bank, personal interviews with the applicants, review of the applicant’s personal financial statements and income tax returns and review of credit bureau reports. Borrowers must personally guarantee loans made for commercial real estate. Commercial real estate loans have terms ranging from 5 to 15 years and are generally fixed-rate loans.

Loans secured by commercial real estate properties are generally larger and involve a greater degree of risk than residential mortgage loans. Because payments on loans secured by commercial real estate properties are often dependent on successful operation or management of the properties, repayment of such loans may be subject to adverse conditions in the real estate market or the economy. Emphasis is placed on the income producing capability of the collateral rather than on management-intensive projects.

Consumer and Commercial Lending. The Bank offers various other secured and unsecured consumer loan products such as automobile loans, personal loans and passbook loans, as well as commercial loans. At December 31, 2009, the balance of such loans was $9.6 million, or 2.2% of the Bank’s total gross loan portfolio.

Loan Review. The Bank has a formalized loan review program, providing for detailed post-closing reviews for loans selected from all categories. After review, reports are made to the mortgage and loan officers and the Asset Classification Committee. Classification determination is presently the responsibility of the Asset Classification Committee. See “Classification of Assets.” The purpose of these procedures is to enhance the Bank’s ability to properly document the loans it originates and to improve the performance of such loans.

Lending Authority. The Bank’s Loan Committee has the authority to approve loans of up to $1,500,000. Loans from $500,000 to $750,000 require approval by two signatories, which signatories can be the Loan Committee, the Bank’s Chief Executive Officer or the Vice President of Lending. The Bank’s Vice President of Lending has authority to approve loans of up to $500,000 and the Processing Manager has the authority to approve loans of up to $300,00.

Loan Servicing. The Bank originated all of the loans it has sold and services those loans for other investors. Pamrapo receives fees for these servicing activities, which include collecting and remitting loan payments, inspecting the properties and making certain insurance and tax payments on behalf of the borrowers. At December 31, 2009, the Bank was servicing $914,000 of loans for others.

Loan Origination Fees and Costs. Loan origination fees and certain related direct loan origination costs are deferred and the resulting net amount is amortized over the life of the related loan as an adjustment to the yield of such loans. In addition, commitment fees are required to be offset against related direct costs and the resulting net amount generally is recognized over the life of the related loans as an adjustment of yield or if the commitment expires unexercised, recognized upon expiration of the commitment. The Bank had $1.3 million in net deferred origination costs at December 31, 2009.

Non-Performing Assets

When a borrower fails to make a required payment by the fifteenth day of the month in which the payment is due, the Bank sends a late notice advising the borrower that the payment has not been received. If a loan has been delinquent for more than 60 days, the Bank reviews the loan status more closely and, where appropriate, appraises the condition of the property and the financial circumstances of the borrower. Based upon the results of

any such investigation, the Bank (1) may accept a repayment program for the arrearage from the borrower; (2) may seek evidence, in the form of a listing contract, of efforts by the borrower to sell the property if the borrower has stated that he is attempting to sell; (3) may request a deed in lieu of foreclosure; or (4) will initiate foreclosure proceedings when a loan payment is delinquent for more than three monthly installments.

The following table sets forth information regarding non-accrual loans, loans which are 90 days or more delinquent, but on which the Bank is accruing interest, and other real estate owned held by the Bank at the dates indicated. It is generally the Bank’s policy to stop interest income accruals and to fully reverse all previously accrued interest income on consumer loans more than 120 days past due and on all other loans when, in management’s opinion, the collection of all or a portion of the loan principal has become doubtful.

At December 31, 2007, 2008 and 2009, non-accrual loans for which interest has been discontinued totaled approximately $3.4 million, $5.6 million and $14.4 million, respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2007, 2008 and 2009, the Bank recognized interest income of approximately $86,000, $103,000 and $195,000, respectively, on these loans. Interest income that would have been recorded, had the loans been on the accrual status, would have amounted to approximately $261,000, $363,000 and $998,000 for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2008 and 2009, respectively. The Bank is not committed to lend additional funds to the borrowers whose loans have been placed on nonaccrual status.

Delinquent Loans. At December 31, 2007, 2008 and 2009, respectively, delinquencies in the Bank’s portfolio were as follows:

As a percent of total gross loans			.33	%			1.24	%			1.56	%			2.44	%			.86	%			5.28	%

As of December 31, 2009, the Bank had 105 loans which were 90 days or more past due totaling $22.6 million. The average balance of such loans was approximately $215,000. All loans are within the Bank’s lending areas.

The Bank’s level of non-performing loans 90 days or more delinquent increased from 10.8 million at December 31, 2008 to $22.6 million at December 31, 2009. The total of such loans in the lower risk one- to four-family residential category increased to $13.5 million from $4.8 million at December 31, 2008. Non-performing multi-family residential, commercial real estate and construction loans, loans normally having greater elements of risk, increased from $4.1 million at December 31, 2008 to $7.9 million at December 31, 2009. The increase in the level of non-performing loans was mainly driven by a weak economy and a resulting high unemployment level.

Classified Assets . Federal regulations provide for the classification of loans and other assets such as debt and equity securities considered to be of lesser quality as “substandard,” “doubtful” or “loss” assets. Assets which do not currently expose the insured institution to sufficient risk to warrant classification in one of the aforementioned categories but possess weaknesses are designated “special mention” by management.

A classification of either substandard or doubtful requires the establishment of general allowances for loan losses in an amount deemed prudent by management. Assets classified as “loss” require either a specific allowance for losses equal to 100% of the amount of the asset so classified or a charge off of such amount.

A savings institution’s determination as to the classification of its assets and the amount of its valuation allowances is subject to review by the OTS which can order the establishment of additional general or specific loss allowances. The OTS, in conjunction with the other federal banking agencies, has adopted an interagency policy statement on the allowance for loan and lease losses. The policy statement provides guidance for financial institutions on both the responsibilities of management for the assessment and establishment of adequate allowances and guidance for banking agency examiners to use in determining the adequacy of general valuation allowances. Generally, the policy statement requires that institutions have effective systems and controls to identify, monitor and address asset quality problems; have analyzed all significant factors that affect the collectability of the portfolio in a reasonable manner; and have established acceptable allowance evaluation processes that meet the objectives set forth in the policy statement.

Management of the Bank has classified $21.2 million of its assets as substandard and approximately $2.3 million as related loss based upon its review of the Bank’s loan portfolio. Such review, among other things, takes into consideration the appraised value of underlying collateral, economic conditions and paying capacity of the borrowers. However, the Bank’s Asset Classification Committee carefully monitors all of the Bank’s delinquent loans to determine whether or not they should be classified. At a minimum, the Bank classifies all foreclosed real estate and non-performing loans 90 days or more delinquent as substandard assets. At December 31, 2009, the allowance for loan losses totaled $6.6 million.

Allowance for Loan Losses . The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses based on management’s evaluation of the risk inherent in its loan portfolio and changes in the nature and volume of its loan activity along with the general economic and real estate market conditions. Such evaluation, which includes a review of all loans of which full collectability may not be reasonably assured, considers among other matters, the estimated net realizable value of the underlying collateral, economic conditions and historical loan loss experience. For more detail on allowance for loan losses, See—Item 8, Note 1 to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

The following table sets forth the activity of the Bank’s allowance for loan losses at the dates indicated:

Ratio of allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans		139.93	%		116.32	%		57.54	%		43.12	%		29.23	%

The increase in the allowance for loan loss balance and in the provision for loan losses during 2009, as compared to 2008, was primarily due to an increase in the Bank’s non-performing loans, which were $22.6 million at December 31, 2009 compared to $10.8 million at December 31, 2008. The provision for loan losses also included $0.3 million and $0.9 million in 2008 and 2009, respectively, for the Bank’s largest non-accruing commercial loan to a local hospital. The Bank’s carrying value of the loan as of December 31, 2009 was $941,000. Based on the fact that the Bank is deemed an unsecured creditor with a lower priority in the future distribution from the Liquidating Trustee, the Company’s board of directors decided on January 20, 2010 to write off the remaining loan balance of $941,000 as of December 31, 2009.

During the years ended December 31, 2007, 2008 and 2009, gross charge-offs totaled $270,000, $124,000 and $2.1 million respectively. The charge-off of commercial loans in 2009 included $1.9 million relating to the local hospital discussed above.

The following table sets forth the breakdown of the allowance for loan losses by loan category for the periods indicated. Management believes that the allowance can be allocated by category only on an approximate basis. The allocation to the allowance by category is not necessarily indicative of future losses and does not restrict the use of the allowance to absorb losses in any category.

Mortgage-Backed Securities. The Bank has significant investments in mortgage-backed securities and has, during periods when loan demand was low and the interest yields on alternative investments were minimal, utilized such investments as an alternative to mortgage lending. All of the securities in the portfolio were insured or guaranteed by GNMA, FNMA or FHLMC and have coupon rates as of December 31, 2009 ranging from 2.50% to 10%. At December 31, 2009, the unamortized principal balance of mortgage-backed securities, both held to maturity and available for sale, totaled $87.8 million or 15.73% of total assets. The carrying value of such securities amounted to $124.4 million, $117.8 million and $88.1 at December 31, 2007, 2008 and 2009, respectively, and the fair market value of such securities totaled approximately $121.9 million, $120.3 million and $91.5 million at December 31, 2007, 2008 and 2009, respectively.

The following table sets forth the contractual maturities of the Bank’s gross mortgage-backed securities portfolio, which includes available for sale and held to maturity mortgage-backed securities, at December 31, 2009.


	Contractual Maturities Due in Year(s) Ended December 31,

Mortgage-backed securities are a low risk investment for the Bank. The Bank’s substantial investment in mortgage-backed securities will significantly enhance the Bank’s ability to meet risk based capital requirements as mortgage-backed securities are assigned a risk rating, generally from 0% to 20%. Based on historical experience, the Bank believes that the mortgage-backed securities will be repaid significantly in advance of the stated maturities reflected in the above table.

Investment Activities

DIF-insured savings institutions have the authority to invest in various types of liquid assets, including United States Treasury obligations, securities of various federal agencies, certain certificates of deposit of insured banks and savings institutions, certain bankers’ acceptances, repurchase agreements and federal funds. Subject to various restrictions, DIF-insured savings institutions may also invest their assets in commercial paper, corporate debt securities and mutual funds whose assets conform to the investments that a DIF-insured savings institution is otherwise authorized to make directly.

The Board of Directors sets the investment policy of the Bank. This policy dictates that investments will be made based on the safety of the principal, liquidity requirements of the Bank and the return on the investment and capital appreciation. The Bank’s Chief Executive Officer may make investments up to $10 million, subject to ratification by the Bank’s Board of Directors.

The Bank’s conservative policy does not permit investment in junk bonds or speculative strategies based upon the rise and fall of interest rates. Pamrapo’s goal, however, has always been to realize the greatest possible return commensurate with its interest rate risk. Pamrapo has emphasized shorter term securities for their liquidity to increase sensitivity of its investment securities to changes in interest rates.

Sources of Funds

General . Deposits are the primary source of the Bank’s funds for use in lending and for other general business purposes. In addition to deposits, the Bank obtains funds from advances from the FHLB-NY and other borrowings.

Deposits . Pamrapo offers a variety of deposit accounts having a wide range of interest rates and terms. The Bank’s deposits consist of regular savings, non-interest bearing demand, NOW and Super NOW, money market and certificate accounts. Pamrapo’s deposits are obtained primarily from the Hudson County area. The Bank relies primarily on customer service and long-standing relationships with customers to attract and retain deposits. Deposits increased by $.5 million or .1% from $444.0 million at December 31, 2008 to $444.5 million at December 31, 2009.

The flow of deposits is influenced significantly by general economic conditions, changes in the money market and prevailing interest rates and competition.

Borrowings . Although deposits are the Bank’s primary source of funds, the Bank utilizes borrowings when they are a less costly source of funds or can be invested at a positive rate of return.

Pamrapo obtains advances from the FHLB-NY upon the security of its capital stock of the FHLB-NY and a blanket and a special assignment of the Bank’s unpledged qualifying mortgage loans, mortgage-backed securities and investment securities. Such advances are made pursuant to several different credit programs, each of which has its own interest rate and range of maturities. As of December 31, 2009, outstanding advances from the FHLB-NY amounted to $51.0 million.

The following table sets forth certain information regarding FHLB-NY advances, all of which are at fixed rates, maturing in the periods indicated:

At December 31, 2009, the Company also had available to it $59,289,000 under a revolving overnight line of credit, expiring August 9, 2010, with the FHLB-NY, which can only be drawn upon to the extent collateral is provided by the Company. The line of credit is secured by a blanket pledge of mortgage loans of $160,215,000 and a specific pledge of mortgage-backed securities with carrying values and fair values of approximately $28,868,000 and $30,042,000, respectively. Borrowings are at the lender’s cost of funds plus 0.25%. There was no outstanding borrowing under the overnight line of credit at December 31, 2009 and $20,500,000 outstanding at December 31, 2008. At December 31, 2009, the Company also had a companion Arc Daily Advance commitment with the FHLB-NY for $59,289,000 expiring August 9, 2010, which would also require collateral prior to any drawdown of these funds. There were no outstanding borrowings at December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008 under the companion DRA commitment.

In January 2010, The FHLB-NY imposed certain restrictions on the Bank’s credit activities. The Bank now is only able to obtain short term borrowings (30 days or less) and its eligibility to sell mortgage loans into the Mortgage Partnership Finance (“MPF”) Program has been suspended pending a determination by the FHLB-NY

that the Bank again meets the eligibility requirements for participation in the MPF Program. The Bank’s line of credit with the FHLB-NY has not been reduced. The Company continues to have the revolving overnight line of credit available to the extent of collateral support provided.

In January 2010, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (“FRB-NY”) informed the Bank that it (i) no longer qualifies for uncollateralized daylight credit, (ii) is no longer eligible to borrow under the FRB-NY Discount Window’s primary credit program, rather requests to borrow at the Window will be considered under the secondary credit program and granted on an overnight basis, and (iii) is now required to prefund its Automated Clearing House credit originations.

Competition

Pamrapo has substantial competition for both loans and deposits. The New York City metropolitan area has a high density of financial institutions, many of which are significantly larger and have substantially greater financial resources than the Bank, and as such may have higher lending limits and may offer other services that are not provided by the Company. The Bank faces significant competition both in making mortgage loans and in attracting deposits. The Bank’s competition for loans comes principally from savings and loan associations, savings banks, mortgage banking companies, insurance companies, commercial banks and other institutional lenders. Its most direct competition for deposits has historically come from savings and loan associations, savings banks, commercial banks, credit unions and other financial institutions. The Bank faces additional competition for deposits from short-term money market funds and other corporate and government securities funds. The Bank faces increased competition among financial institutions for deposits. Competition also may increase as a result of the continuing reduction in the effective restrictions on the interstate operations of financial institutions and legislation authorizing the acquisition of thrifts by Banks.

The Bank competes for loans principally through the interest rates and loan fees it charges and the efficiency and quality of services it provides borrowers and real estate brokers. It competes for deposits through pricing, service and by offering a variety of deposit accounts. New powers for thrift institutions provided by New Jersey and federal legislation enacted in recent years have resulted in increased competition between savings banks and other financial institutions for both deposits and loans. Management believes that implementation of new powers set forth in such recent legislation is expected to intensify this competition.

Subsidiaries

Pamrapo is generally permitted under New Jersey law and the regulations of the Commissioner of the New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance (the “Commissioner”) to invest, without regulatory approval, an amount equal to 3% of its assets in subsidiary service corporations. As of December 31, 2009, Pamrapo had $219.7 million and $188,000 of its assets invested in Pamrapo Investment Company and Pamrapo Service Corporation, respectively, each of which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Bank. Pamrapo Investment Company manages and maintains certain tangible assets of the Bank for investment purposes. Currently, Pamrapo Service Corporation is an inactive subsidiary.

Yields Earned and Rates Paid

The Bank’s earnings depend primarily on its net interest income. Net interest income is affected by (i) the volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, (ii) rates of interest earned on interest-earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities and (iii) the difference (“interest rate spread”) between rates of interest earned on interest-earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities. When interest-earning assets approximate or exceed interest-bearing liabilities, any positive interest rate spread will generate net interest income.

A large portion of the Bank’s real estate loans are long-term, fixed-rate loans. Accordingly, the average yield recognized by the Bank on its total loan portfolio changes slowly and generally does not keep pace with

changes in interest rates on deposit accounts and borrowings. At December 31, 2009, approximately 77.0% of the Bank’s gross mortgage loan portfolio, excluding mortgage-backed securities, consisted of fixed-rate mortgage loans with original terms consisting primarily of 15 to 30 years. Accordingly, when interest rates rise, the Bank’s yield on its loan portfolio increases at a slower pace than the rate by which its cost of funds increases, which may adversely impact the Bank’s interest rate spread.

The following tables set forth for the periods indicated information regarding the average balances of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, the dollar amount of interest income earned on such assets and the resultant yields, the dollar amount of interest expense paid on such liabilities and the resultant costs. The tables also reflect the interest rate spread for such periods, the net yield on interest-earning assets (i.e., net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets) and the ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest-bearing liabilities. Average balances are based on daily amounts.

Interest Rate Sensitivity Analysis

The matching of assets and liabilities may be analyzed by examining the extent to which such assets and liabilities are “interest rate sensitive” and by monitoring an institution’s interest rate sensitivity “gap.” An asset or liability is said to be interest rate sensitive within a specific time period if it will mature or reprice within that time period. The interest rate sensitivity gap is defined as the difference between the amount of interest-earning assets maturing or repricing within a specific time period and the amount of interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing within that time period. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest rate sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities. A gap is considered negative when the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive assets. During a period of rising interest rates, a negative gap would tend to adversely affect net interest income while a positive gap would tend to result in an increase in net interest income. During a period of falling interest rates, a negative gap would tend to result in an increase in net interest income while a positive gap would tend to adversely affect net interest income.

The following table sets forth the amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities outstanding at December 31, 2009, which are expected to reprice or mature in each of the future time periods shown. Except as stated below, the amount of assets and liabilities shown which reprice or mature during a particular period were determined in accordance with the contractual terms of the asset or liability. Loans and mortgage-backed securities that have adjustable rates are shown as being due in the period during which the interest rates are next subject to change. The Bank has assumed that its passbook savings and club accounts, which totaled $118.5 million at December 31, 2009, are withdrawn at the following rates: 11.51% are rate sensitive within a one year time frame and the remainder will be withdrawn at an annual rate of 11.36% on the cumulative declining balance of such accounts during the periods shown. The Bank has further assumed that its money market accounts, which totaled $36.3 million at December 31, 2009, are withdrawn at the following rates: 11.36% are rate sensitive within a one year time frame and the remainder will be withdrawn at an annual rate of 11.36% on the cumulative declining balance of such accounts during the periods shown.

Additionally, the Bank has assumed that its NOW and Super NOW accounts, which totaled $47.4 million at December 31, 2009, are withdrawn at the following rates: 11.36% are rate sensitive within a one year time frame and the remainder will be withdrawn at an annual rate of 11.36% on the cumulative declining balance of such accounts during the periods shown.

Rate/Volume Analysis

Changes in net interest income are attributable to three factors: (i) a change in volume or amount of an interest-earning asset or interest-bearing liability, (ii) a change in interest rates or (iii) a change caused by a combination of changes in volume and interest rate. The table below sets forth certain information regarding changes in interest income and interest expense of the Bank for the periods indicated, reflecting the extent to which such changes are attributable to changes in volume and changes in rate. The amount attributable to a change in volume or amount is calculated by multiplying the average interest rate for the prior period by the increase (decrease) in the average balance of the related asset or liability. The amount attributable to a change in rate is calculated by multiplying the increase (decrease) in the average interest rate from the prior period by the average balance of the related asset or liability for the prior period. The rate/volume change represents a change in rate multiplied by a change in volume and is allocated proportionately to volume and rate changes.

REGULATION AND SUPERVISION

General

The Company, as a savings and loan holding company, is required to file certain reports with, and otherwise comply with the rules and regulations of the OTS under the Home Owners’ Loan Act, as amended (the “HOLA”). In addition, the activities of savings institutions, such as the Bank, are governed by the HOLA and the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (“FDI Act”).

The Bank is subject to extensive regulation, examination and supervision by the OTS, as its primary federal regulator, and the FDIC, as the deposit insurer. The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) System and its deposit accounts are insured up to applicable limits by the DIF managed by the FDIC. The Bank must file reports with the OTS and the FDIC concerning its activities and financial condition in addition to obtaining regulatory approvals prior to entering into certain transactions such as mergers with, or acquisitions of, other savings institutions. The OTS and/or the FDIC conduct periodic examinations to test the Bank’s safety and soundness and compliance with various regulatory requirements. This regulation and supervision establishes a comprehensive framework of activities in which an institution can engage and is intended primarily for the protection of the insurance fund and depositors. The regulatory structure also gives the regulatory authorities extensive discretion in connection with their supervisory and enforcement activities and examination policies, including policies with respect to the classification of assets and the establishment of adequate loan loss reserves for regulatory purposes. Any change in such regulatory requirements and policies, whether by the OTS, the FDIC or the Congress, could have a material adverse impact on the Company, the Bank and their operations. Certain of the regulatory requirements applicable to the Bank and to the Company are referred to below or elsewhere herein. The description of statutory provisions and regulations applicable to savings institutions and their holding companies set forth in this Form 10-K does not purport to be a complete description of such statutes and regulations and their effects on the Bank and the Company and is qualified in its entirety by reference to applicable laws and regulations.

Holding Company Regulation

The Company is a nondiversified unitary savings and loan holding company within the meaning of the HOLA. As a unitary savings and loan holding company, the Company generally is not restricted under existing laws as to the types of business activities in which it may engage, provided that the Bank continues to be a qualified thrift lender (“QTL”). Upon any non-supervisory acquisition by the Company of another savings institution or savings bank that meets the QTL test and is deemed to be a savings institution by the OTS, the Company would become a multiple savings and loan holding company (if the acquired institution is held as a separate subsidiary) and would be subject to extensive limitations on the types of business activities in which it could engage. The HOLA limits the activities of a multiple savings and loan holding company and its non-insured institution subsidiaries primarily to activities permissible for bank holding companies under Section 4(c)(8) of the Bank Holding Company Act (“BHC Act”), subject to the prior approval of the OTS, and certain activities authorized by OTS regulation, and no multiple savings and loan holding company may acquire more than 5% the voting stock of a company engaged in impermissible activities.

The HOLA prohibits a savings and loan holding company, directly or indirectly, or through one or more subsidiaries, from acquiring more than 5% of the voting stock of another savings institution or holding company thereof, without prior written approval of the OTS or acquiring or retaining control of a depository institution that is not insured by the FDIC. In evaluating applications by holding companies to acquire savings institutions, the OTS must consider the financial and managerial resources and future prospects of the company and institution involved, the effect of the acquisition on the risk to the insurance funds, the convenience and needs of the community and competitive factors.

The OTS is prohibited from approving any acquisition that would result in a multiple savings and loan holding company controlling savings institutions in more than one state, subject to two exceptions: (i) the

approval of interstate supervisory acquisitions by savings and loan holding companies and (ii) the acquisition of a savings institution in another state if the laws of the state of the target savings institution specifically permit such acquisitions. The states vary in the extent to which they permit interstate savings and loan holding company acquisitions.

Although savings and loan holding companies are not subject to specific capital requirements or specific restrictions on the payment of dividends or other capital distributions, HOLA does prescribe such restrictions on subsidiary savings institutions as described below. The Bank must notify the OTS within 30 days before declaring any dividend to the Company. In addition, the financial impact of a holding company on its subsidiary institution is a matter that is evaluated by the OTS, and the agency has authority to order cessation of activities or divestiture of subsidiaries deemed to pose a threat to the safety and soundness of the subsidiary institution.

Federal Savings Institution Regulation

The OTS has extensive authority over the operations of savings institutions. As part of this authority, savings institutions are required to file periodic reports with the OTS and are subject to periodic examinations by the OTS and the FDIC. Such regulation and supervision is primarily intended for the protection of depositors and the DIF.

Cease and Desist Orders. The Bank is subject to a range of bank regulatory compliance obligations. As previously disclosed, in connection with routine compliance examinations by the OTS, certain deficiencies were identified. The Bank has and continues to take steps to remediate these deficiencies and to strengthen the Bank’s overall compliance programs.

On January 21, 2010, the Bank, stipulated and consented to a cease and desist order (the “Order”) issued by the OTS. The Order became effective on January 21, 2010. The Order was issued as a result of matters relating to the Bank’s compliance with certain laws and regulations, and deficiencies in its operations and management.

The Order requires the Bank to prepare and submit to the OTS an updated three-year business plan for calendar years 2010 to 2012, and to prepare and submit to the OTS a management plan. The Order also requires the Bank to appoint, by April 15, 2010, at least three (3) new independent members to the Bank’s board of directors in the event that the sale or merger of the Bank is not completed by March 31, 2010. The Bank, pursuant to the Order, shall not increase its total assets during any quarter in excess of an amount equal to net interest credited on deposit liabilities during the prior quarter without the prior permission of the OTS. The Order also requires the Bank to maintain adequate and effective internal controls and corporate governance policies, procedures and practices, including an internal audit program, an independent compliance oversight program, and an effective internal loan review program and to take certain other actions identified by the OTS in the Order. The Bank has already begun to implement several initiatives to enhance, among other things, its management and corporate governance in accordance with the requirements of the Order.

As previously disclosed, the Bank also agreed to a cease and desist order (the “2008 Order”) issued by the OTS on September 26, 2008 as a result of issues relating to the Bank’s compliance with certain laws and regulations, including the Bank Secrecy Act and Anti-Money Laundering (“BSA/AML”). The 2008 Order did not identify or relate to any issues regarding the safety and soundness of the Bank.

The 2008 Order requires the Bank to strengthen its BSA/AML Program, to strengthen its Compliance Maintenance Program and internal controls related to those matters and to take certain other actions identified by the OTS in the 2008 Order. The Bank has implemented initiatives to enhance, among other things, its BSA/AML Program and its Compliance Management Program in accordance with the requirements of the 2008 Order.

Capital Requirements . The OTS capital regulations require savings institutions to meet three minimum capital standards: a 1.5% tangible capital ratio, a 4% leverage (core) capital ratio and an 8% risk-based capital ratio. Core capital is defined as common stockholders’ equity (including retained earnings), certain noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and related surplus, minority interests in equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries less intangibles other than certain mortgage servicing rights and credit card relationships. The OTS regulations require that, in meeting the tangible, leverage (core) and risk-based capital standards, institutions must generally deduct investments in and loans to subsidiaries engaged in activities that are not permissible for a national bank.

The risk-based capital standard for savings institutions requires the maintenance of total capital (which is defined as core capital and supplementary capital) to risk-weighted assets of 8%. In determining the amount of risk-weighted assets, all assets, including certain off-balance sheet assets, are multiplied by a risk-weight factor of 0% to 100%, as assigned by the OTS capital regulation based on the risks the OTS believes are inherent in the type of asset. The components of core capital are equivalent to those discussed earlier under the 4% leverage standard. The components of supplementary capital currently include cumulative preferred stock, long-term perpetual preferred stock, mandatory convertible securities, subordinated debt and intermediate preferred stock and, within specified limits, the allowance for loan and lease losses. Overall, the amount of supplementary capital included as part of total capital cannot exceed 100% of core capital.

The OTS regulatory capital requirements also incorporate an interest rate risk component. Savings institutions with “above normal” interest rate risk exposure are subject to a deduction from total capital for purposes of calculating their risk-based capital requirements. A savings institution’s interest rate risk is measured by the decline in the net portfolio value of its assets (i.e., the difference between incoming and outgoing discounted cash flows from assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet contracts) that would result from a hypothetical 200 basis point increase or decrease in market interest rates divided by the estimated economic value of the institution’s assets, as calculated in accordance with guidelines set forth by the OTS. A savings institution whose measured interest rate risk exposure exceeds 2% must deduct an amount equal to one-half of the difference between the institution’s measured interest rate risk and 2%, multiplied by the estimated economic value of the institution’s total assets. That dollar amount is deducted from an institution’s total capital in calculating compliance with its risk-based capital requirement. Under the rule, there is a two quarter lag between the reporting date of an institution’s financial data and the effective date for the new capital requirement based on that data. A savings institution with assets of less than $300 million and risk-based capital ratios in excess of 12% is not subject to the interest rate risk component, unless the OTS determines otherwise. The Director of the OTS may waive or defer a savings institution’s interest rate risk component on a case-by-case basis. For the present time, the OTS has deferred implementation of the interest rate risk component. At December 31, 2009, the Bank met each of its capital requirements.

The following table presents the Bank’s capital position at December 31, 2009:


	Actual Amount		Required Amount		Excess Amount		Actual Percent		Required Percent
	(Dollars in thousands)
Tangible	$	49,530	$	8,361	$	41,169	8.89	%	1.50	%
Core (Leverage)		49,530		22,297		27,233	8.89	%	4.00	%
Risk-based		53,818		29,432		24,386	14.63	%	8.00	%

Prompt Corrective Regulatory Action . Under the OTS prompt corrective action regulations, the OTS is required to take certain supervisory actions against undercapitalized institutions, the severity of which depends upon the institution’s degree of undercapitalization. Generally, a savings institution that has a total risk-based capital of less than 8% or a leverage ratio or a Tier 1 capital ratio that is less than 4% is considered to be “undercapitalized.” A savings institution that has a total risk-based capital ratio less than 6%, a Tier 1 capital ratio of less than 3% or a leverage ratio that is less than 3% is considered to be “significantly undercapitalized”

and a savings institution that has a tangible capital to assets ratio equal to or less than 2% is deemed to be “critically undercapitalized.” Subject to a narrow exception, the banking regulator is required to appoint a receiver or conservator for an institution that is “critically undercapitalized.” The regulation also provides that a capital restoration plan must be filed with the OTS within 45 days of the date a savings institution receives notice that it is “undercapitalized,” “significantly undercapitalized” or “critically undercapitalized.” Compliance with the plan must be guaranteed by any parent holding company. In addition, numerous mandatory supervisory actions become immediately applicable to the institution depending upon its category, including, but not limited to, increased monitoring by regulators and restrictions on growth, capital distributions and expansion. The OTS could also take any one of a number of discretionary supervisory actions, including the issuance of a capital directive and the replacement of senior executive officers and directors.

Insurance of Deposit Accounts . Deposits of the Bank are insured up to applicable limits by the DIF, which is administered by the FDIC. On May 10, 2009, President Barack Obama signed the Helping Families Save Their Home Act which extends the temporary increase in the standard maximum deposit insurance amount (“SMDIA”) to $250,000 per depositor through December 31, 2013. The legislation provides that the SMDIA limit will return to $100,000 on January 1, 2014. The legislation did not increase coverage for retirement accounts, which continues to be $250,000.

Due to the significant number of bank failures and the current balance of the DIF, the Company anticipates continued increases in its FDIC premiums going forward. To maintain the DIF, FDIC-insured institutions are required to pay a deposit insurance premium. The FDIC utilizes a risk-based premium system to evaluate the risk of each financial institution based on three primary sources of information: (1) its supervisory rating, (2) its financial ratios, and (3) its long-term debt issuer rating, if the institution has one.

The FDIC adopted a final rule, which became effective on January 1, 2009, that raised the risk-based deposit insurance assessment rates uniformly for all insured institutions by seven basis points for the first quarter of 2009 assessment period. As a result, assessment rates for the first quarter of 2009 increased to 12 basis points for the healthiest institutions. On February 27, 2009, the FDIC also adopted a final rule on assessments, which became effective on April 1, 2009, that modified the way the assessment system differentiates risk among insured institutions and raised the assessment rates for the second quarter of 2009 assessment period and thereafter. Under this final rule, assessment rates for the second quarter of 2009 ranged from between 12 and 16 basis points for the healthiest institutions to 45 basis points for the riskiest. Premiums for 2010 are currently set at 2009 rates. On May 22, 2009, the FDIC adopted a final rule imposing a 5 basis point special assessment on each insured depository institution’s assets minus Tier 1 capital as reported on the report of condition as of June 30, 2009, but capped the special assessment at 10 basis points times the institution’s assessment base for the second quarter of 2009 risk based assessment. The Bank recognized a special assessment of $263,000 in June 2009.

On November 12, 2009, the FDIC adopted a final rule amending the assessment regulations to require insured depository institutions to prepay their quarterly risk-based assessments for the fourth quarter of 2009, and for all of 2010, 2011, and 2012, on December 30, 2009, along with each institution’s risk-based assessment for the third quarter of 2009. The Bank was granted an exemption by the FDIC from prepaying its estimated quarterly risk-based deposit insurance assessments for the fourth quarter of 2009 and all of 2010, 2011, and 2012. Therefore, the Bank will continue to pay its risk based deposit insurance assessments on a quarterly basis, rather than on the initially required prepayment schedule. Given the continued decline in the Deposit Insurance Fund balance, the Company anticipates that the FDIC will impose additional special emergency assessments in the future that will impact the Bank’s capital levels and earnings.

The increases in FDIC insurance contributed to the increase in the Company’s expense from $71,000 in 2008 to $1,449,000 in 2009. Given the enacted increases in assessments for insured financial institutions the Company anticipates that FDIC assessments on deposits will continue to have a significant impact upon operating expenses in 2010 and could materially affect our reported earnings liquidity and capital.

In addition to the assessment for deposit insurance, institutions are required to pay on bonds issued in the late 1980s by the Financing Corporation (“FICO”) to recapitalize a predecessor deposit insurance fund. The FICO is a mixed-ownership government corporation established by the Competitive Equality Banking Act of 1987 whose sole purpose was to function as a financing vehicle for the now defunct Federal Savings & Loan Insurance Corporation. FICO assessments are included in the FDIC amounts stated above, and totaled $47,000 in 2009.

The Bank’s FDIC assessment rate for the year ended December 31, 2009 was 21.47 basis points.

Insurance of deposits may be terminated by the FDIC upon a finding that the institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations or has violated any applicable law, regulation, rule, order or condition imposed by the FDIC or the OTS. The management of the Bank does not know of any practice, condition or violation that might lead to termination of deposit insurance.

Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008. On October 3, 2008, President George W. Bush signed the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (“EESA”). The EESA, among other things, raises the basic limit on federal deposit insurance coverage from $100,000 to $250,000 per depositor until December 31, 2009.

Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program ., On October 14, 2008, the FDIC adopted an optional Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program (“TLGP”). The TLGP includes the Transaction Account Guarantee Program by which, for a fee, noninterest bearing transaction accounts will receive unlimited insurance coverage until June 30, 2010. The TLGP also includes the Debt Guarantee Program by which certain senior unsecured debt issued by institutions and their holding companies on or after April 1, 2009 and not later than October 31, 2009 will be guaranteed by the FDIC through the earlier of maturity of the debt or December 31, 2012. The fee assessment for deposit insurance coverage is 10 basis points per quarter on amounts in covered accounts exceeding $250,000. The Company and the Bank elected to opt out of the Debt Guarantee Program, but the Bank chose to participate in the Transaction Account Guarantee Program. Separately, Congress extended the temporary increase in the standard coverage limit to $250,000 until December 31, 2013.

Thrift Rechartering Legislation . Various proposals to eliminate the federal thrift charter, create a uniform financial institutions charter and abolish the OTS have been introduced in past sessions of Congress. The Bank is unable to predict whether such legislation would be enacted or the extent to which the legislation would restrict or disrupt its operations.

Loans to One Borrower . Under the HOLA, savings institutions are generally subject to the limits on loans to one borrower applicable to national banks. Generally, savings institutions may not make a loan or extend credit to a single or related group of borrowers in excess of 15% of its unimpaired capital and surplus. An additional amount may be lent, equal to 10% of unimpaired capital and surplus, if such loan is fully secured by readily-marketable collateral, which is defined to include certain financial instruments and bullion. At December 31, 2009, the Bank’s limit on loans to one borrower was $7.2 million. At December 31, 2009, the Bank’s largest aggregate outstanding balance of loans to one borrower was $4.1 million.

QTL Test . The HOLA requires savings institutions to meet a QTL test. Under the QTL test, a savings association is required to maintain at least 65% of its “portfolio assets” (total assets less: (i) specified liquid assets up to 20% of total assets; (ii) intangibles, including goodwill; and (iii) the value of property used to conduct business) in certain “qualified thrift investments” (primarily residential mortgages and related investments, including certain mortgage-backed and related securities) in at least 9 months out of each 12 month period. A savings association that fails the QTL test must either convert to a bank charter or operate under certain restrictions. As of December 31, 2009, the Bank maintained 76.9% of its portfolio assets in qualified thrift investments and, therefore, met the QTL test.

Limitation on Capital Distributions . OTS regulations impose limitations upon all capital distributions by savings institutions, such as cash dividends, payments to repurchase or otherwise acquire its shares, payments to

shareholders of another institution in a cash-out merger and other distributions charged against capital. The rule establishes three tiers of institutions, which are based primarily on an institution’s capital level. An institution that exceeds all fully phased-in capital requirements before and after a proposed capital distribution (“Tier 1 Bank”) and has not been advised by the OTS that it is in need of more than normal supervision, could, after prior notice but without obtaining approval of the OTS, make capital distributions during a calendar year equal to the greater of (i) 100% of its net earnings to date during the calendar year plus the amount that would reduce by one-half its “surplus capital ratio” (the excess capital over its fully phased-in capital requirements) at the beginning of the calendar year or (ii) 75% of its net earnings for the previous four quarters. Any additional capital distributions would require prior regulatory approval. In the event the Bank’s capital fell below its regulatory requirements or the OTS notified it that it was in need of more than normal supervision, the Bank’s ability to make capital distributions could be restricted. In addition, the OTS could prohibit a proposed capital distribution by any institution, which would otherwise be permitted by the regulation, if the OTS determines that such distribution would constitute an unsafe or unsound practice. At December 31, 2009, the Bank was classified as a Tier 1 Bank.

Under OTS capital distribution regulations, an application to and the prior approval of the OTS is required before an institution makes a capital distribution if (1) the institution does not meet certain criteria for “expedited treatment” for applications under the regulations, (2) the total capital distributions by the institution for the calendar year exceed net income for that year plus the amount of retained net income for the preceding two years, (3) the institution would be undercapitalized following the distribution or (4) the distribution would otherwise be contrary to a statute, regulation or agreement with the OTS. If an application is not required, the institution may still need to give advance notice to the OTS of the capital distribution.

Liquidity . Until recently, the Bank is required to maintain an average daily balance of specified liquid assets equal to a monthly average of not less than a specified percentage of its net withdrawable deposit accounts plus short-term borrowings. Effective March 15, 2001, the liquidity requirement to which the Bank is held under HOLA was amended to eliminate the specific percentage requirement, but retained the requirement that an institution “maintain sufficient liquidity to ensure its safe and sound operation.” The Bank’s average liquidity ratio for the month of December 2009 calculated using the ratio calculation of HOLA prior to March 15, 2001 was 4.05%, and in the opinion of management meets current requirements for Bank’s safe and sound operation. The Bank has never been subject to monetary penalties for failure to meet its liquidity requirements.

Assessments . Savings institutions are required to pay assessments to the OTS to fund the agency’s operations. The general assessments, paid on a semi-annual basis, are based upon the savings institution’s total assets, including consolidated subsidiaries, as reported in the Bank’s latest quarterly thrift financial report. The assessments paid by the Bank for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 totaled $216,000.

Branching . OTS regulations permit nationwide branching by federally chartered savings institutions to the extent allowed by federal statute. This permits federal savings institutions to establish interstate networks and to geographically diversify their loan portfolios and lines of business. The OTS authority preempts any state law purporting to regulate branching by federal savings institutions.

Transactions with Related Parties . The Bank’s authority to engage in transactions with related parties or “affiliates” (i.e. , any company that controls or is under common control with an institution, including the Company and its non-savings institution subsidiaries) is limited by Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act (“FRA”). Section 23A restricts the aggregate amount of covered transactions with any individual affiliate to 10% of the capital and surplus of the savings institution. The aggregate amount of covered transactions with all affiliates is limited to 20% of the savings institution’s capital and surplus. Certain transactions with affiliates are required to be secured by collateral in an amount and of a type described in Section 23A and the purchase of low quality assets from affiliates is generally prohibited. Section 23B generally requires that certain transactions with affiliates, including loans and asset purchases, be on terms and under circumstances, including credit standards, that are substantially the same or at least as favorable to the institution as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with non-affiliated companies.

Enforcement . Under the FDI Act, the OTS has primary enforcement responsibility over savings institutions and has the authority to bring actions against the institution and all institution-affiliated parties, including stockholders, and any attorneys, appraisers and accountants who knowingly or recklessly participate in wrongful action likely to have an adverse effect on an insured institution. Formal enforcement action may range from the issuance of a capital directive or cease and desist order to removal of officers and/or directors to institution of receivership, conservatorship or termination of deposit insurance. Civil penalties cover a wide range of violations and can amount to $25,000 per day, or even $1 million per day in especially egregious cases. Under the FDI Act, the FDIC has the authority to recommend to the Director of the OTS enforcement action to be taken with respect to a particular savings institution. If action is not taken by the Director, the FDIC has authority to take such action under certain circumstances. Federal law also establishes criminal penalties for certain violations.

Safety and Soundness Standards. The FDI Act, requires the federal bank regulatory agencies to prescribe standards, by regulations or guidelines, relating to internal controls, information systems and internal audit systems, loan documentation, credit underwriting, interest rate risk exposure, asset growth, asset quality, earnings, stock valuation and compensation, fees and benefits, and such other operational and managerial standards as the agencies deem appropriate. Guidelines adopted by the federal bank regulatory agencies establish general standards relating to internal controls and information systems, internal audit systems, loan documentation, credit underwriting, interest rate exposure, asset growth and compensation, fees and benefits. In general, the guidelines require, among other things, appropriate systems and practices to identify and manage the risk and exposures specified in the guidelines. The guidelines prohibit excessive compensation as an unsafe and unsound practice and describe compensation as excessive when the amounts paid are unreasonable or disproportionate to the services performed by an executive officer, employee, director or principal stockholder. In addition, the agencies adopted regulations that authorize, but do not require, an agency to order an institution that has been given notice by an agency that it is not satisfying any of such safety and soundness standards to submit a compliance plan. If, after being so notified, an institution fails to submit an acceptable compliance plan or fails in any material respect to implement an acceptable compliance plan, the agency must issue an order directing action to correct the deficiency and may issue an order directing other actions of the types to which an undercapitalized institution is subject under the “prompt corrective action” provisions of FDI Act. If an institution fails to comply with such an order, the agency may seek to enforce such order in judicial proceedings and to impose civil money penalties.

Standards for Safeguarding Customer Information . In 1999, the President signed the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act into law. Section 501 of the Act requires that bank regulatory agencies establish appropriate standards for financial institutions relating to the administrative, technical, and physical safeguards for customer records and information. Accordingly, the OTS, the FDIC, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System published Interagency Guidelines for Safeguarding Customer Information in February of 2001. The Customer Information Guidelines require the Bank to adopt a comprehensive written information security program that is designed to protect against unauthorized access to or use of customers’ nonpublic personal information. All elements of the security program must be coordinated among all parts of the bank. The Board of Directors of the Bank must approve the written information security program and oversee its development, implementation and maintenance. The Bank must identify reasonably foreseeable internal and external threats that could result in unauthorized disclosure, misuse, alteration or destruction of customer information or customer information systems, assess the likelihood and potential damage of these threats (taking into consideration the sensitivity of customer information), and assess the sufficiency of policies, procedures, customer information systems, and other arrangements in place to control risks. In order to manage and control any risk, the Bank should design its information security program to control the identified risks, commensurate with the sensitivity of the information as well as the complexity and scope of the Bank’s activities and adopt such measures listed in the Guidelines regarding access, controls, encryption and other procedures that the Bank concludes are appropriate. In addition, banks are required to exercise due diligence in selecting service providers having access to customer information, require such service providers by contract to implement appropriate measures designed to meet the objectives of the Guidelines, and monitor such service providers to confirm that they have satisfied their obligations under the contract. The Bank must report to its

Board at least annually describing the overall status of the information security program and the Bank’s compliance with the Guidelines.

The USA Patriot Act of 2001 . The USA Patriot Act of 2001, as amended (the “Patriot Act”), has imposed substantial new record-keeping and due diligence obligations on banks and other financial institutions, with a particular focus on detecting and reporting money-laundering transactions involving domestic or international customers. The U.S. Treasury Department has issued and will continue to issue regulations clarifying the Patriot Act’s requirements. The Patriot Act requires all “financial institutions,” as defined, to establish certain anti-money laundering compliance and due diligence programs.

Regulation R . In September 2007, the SEC and the Federal Reserve Board jointly adopted final rules to implement exceptions provided for in the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act for securities activities that banks may conduct without registering with the SEC as a securities broker or moving such activities to a broker-dealer affiliate. Regulation R affects the way a bank’s employees who are not registered with the SEC may be compensated for referrals to a third-party broker-dealer with whom the bank has entered into a networking arrangement. In addition, Regulation R implements the bank broker exceptions relating to trust and fiduciary activities, deposit “sweep” activities, and custody and safekeeping activities. The final regulation also includes certain exemptions related to these and other activities. Regulation R became effective for the Bank on January 1, 2009.

Incentive Compensation. On October 22, 2009, the Federal Reserve Board issued a comprehensive proposal on incentive compensation policies (the “Incentive Compensation Proposal”) intended to ensure that the incentive compensation policies of banking organizations do not undermine the safety and soundness of such organizations by encouraging excessive risk-taking. The Incentive Compensation Proposal, which covers all employees that have the ability to materially affect the risk profile of an organization, is based upon the key principles that a banking organization’s incentive compensation arrangements should (i) provide incentives that do not encourage risk-taking beyond the organization’s ability to effectively identify and manage risks, (ii) be compatible with effective internal controls and risk management, and (iii) be supported by strong corporate governance, including active and effective oversight by the organization’s board of directors. The Federal Reserve Board indicated that all banking organizations are to evaluate their incentive compensation arrangements and related risk management, control, and corporate governance processes and immediately address deficiencies in these arrangements or processes that are inconsistent with safety and soundness.

The Federal Reserve Board will review, as part of the regular, risk-focused examination process, the incentive compensation arrangements of banking organizations, such as the Company, that are not “large, complex banking organizations.” These reviews will be tailored to each organization based on the scope and complexity of the organization’s activities and the prevalence of incentive compensation arrangements. The findings of the supervisory initiatives will be included in reports of examination. Deficiencies will be incorporated into the organization’s supervisory ratings, which can affect the organization’s ability to make acquisitions and take other actions. Enforcement actions may be taken against a banking organization if its incentive compensation arrangements, or related risk-management control or governance processes, pose a risk to the organization’s safety and soundness and the organization is not taking prompt and effective measures to correct the deficiencies.

In addition, on January 12, 2010, FDIC issued an Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking seeking public comment on whether certain employee compensation structures pose risks that should be captured in the deposit insurance assessment program through higher deposit assessment rates.

The scope and content of the U.S. banking regulators’ policies on executive compensation are continuing to develop and are likely to continue evolving in the near future. It cannot be determined at this time whether compliance with such policies will adversely affect the Company’s ability to hire, retain and motivate its key employees.

Regulatory Reform. In June 2009, President Obama’s administration proposed a wide range of regulatory reforms that, if enacted, may have significant effects on the financial services industry in the United States. Significant aspects of the administration’s proposals that may affect the Company included, among other things, proposals: (i) to reassess and increase capital requirements for banks and bank holding companies and examine the types of instruments that qualify as regulatory capital; (ii) to combine the OCC and the Office of Thrift Supervision into a National Bank Supervisor with a unified federal bank charter; (iii) to expand the current eligibility requirements for financial holding companies, such as the Company, so that the financial holding company must be “well capitalized” and “well managed” on a consolidated basis; (iv) to create a federal consumer financial protection agency to be the primary federal consumer protection supervisor with broad examination, supervision and enforcement authority with respect to consumer financial products and services; (v) to further limit the ability of banks to engage transactions with affiliates; and (vi) to subject all “over-the-counter” derivatives markets to comprehensive regulation.

The U.S. Congress, state lawmaking bodies and federal and state regulatory agencies continue to consider a number of wide-ranging and comprehensive proposals for altering the structure, regulation and competitive relationships of the nation’s financial institutions, including rules and regulations related to the administration’s proposals. Separate comprehensive financial reform bills intended to address the proposals set forth by the administration were introduced in both houses of Congress in the second half of 2009 and remain under review by both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate. In addition, both the U.S. Treasury Department and the Basel Committee have issued policy statements regarding proposed significant changes to the regulatory capital framework applicable to banking organizations, as discussed above. The Company cannot predict whether or in what form further legislation or regulations may be adopted or the extent to which the Company may be affected thereby.

Federal Reserve System

The Federal Reserve Board regulations require savings institutions to maintain non-interest earning reserves against their transaction accounts. The Federal Reserve Board regulations generally require that reserves be maintained against aggregate transaction accounts as follows: for accounts aggregating $44.4 million or less (subject to adjustment by the Federal Reserve Board) the reserve requirement was 3%; and for accounts aggregating greater than $44.4 million, the reserve requirement was $1.0 million plus 10% (subject to adjustment by the Federal Reserve Board) against that portion of total transaction accounts in excess of $44.4 million. The first $10.3 million of otherwise reservable balances (subject to adjustments by the Federal Reserve Board) were exempted from the reserve requirements. The Bank maintained compliance with the foregoing requirements. The balances maintained to meet the reserve requirements imposed by the Federal Reserve Board may be used to satisfy liquidity requirements imposed by the OTS.

New Jersey Law

The Commissioner regulates, among other things, the Bank’s internal business procedures as well as its deposits, lending and investment activities. The Commissioner must approve changes to the Bank’s Certificate of Incorporation, establishment or relocation of branch offices, mergers and the issuance of additional stock. In addition, the Commissioner conducts periodic examinations of the Bank. Certain of the areas regulated by the Commissioner are not subject to similar regulation by the FDIC.

Recent federal and state legislative developments have reduced distinctions between commercial banks and DIF-insured savings institutions in New Jersey with respect to lending and investment authority, as well as interest rate limitations. As federal law has expanded the authority of federally chartered savings institutions to engage in activities previously reserved for commercial banks, New Jersey legislation and regulations (“parity legislation”) have given New Jersey chartered savings institutions, such as the Bank, the powers of federally chartered savings institutions.

New Jersey law provides that, upon satisfaction of certain triggering conditions, as determined by the Commissioner, insured institutions or savings and loan holding companies located in a state which has reciprocal legislation in effect on substantially the same terms and conditions as stated under New Jersey law may acquire, or be acquired by New Jersey insured institutions or holding companies on either a regional or national basis. New Jersey law explicitly prohibits interstate branching.

Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002

The Company is subject to the accounting oversight and corporate governance requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, including:

•

certification of financial statements by the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer;

•

enhanced disclosure of controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting;

•

the forfeiture of bonuses or other incentive-based compensation and profits from the sale of an issuer’s securities by directors and senior officers in the twelve month period following initial publication of any financial statements that later require restatement;

•

a prohibition on insider trading during pension plan black out periods;

•

disclosure of off-balance sheet transactions;

•

a prohibition on personal loans to directors and officers;

•

auditor independence; and

•

various increased criminal penalties for violations of securities laws.

FEDERAL AND STATE TAXATION

Federal Taxation

General . The Company and the Bank report their income on a consolidated basis and the accrual method of accounting, and are subject to federal income taxation in the same manner as other corporations with some exceptions, including particularly the Bank’s reserve for bad debts discussed below. The following discussion of tax matters is intended only as a summary and does not purport to be a comprehensive description of the tax rules applicable to the Bank or the Company. The Bank has not been audited by the IRS in the past ten years. For its 2009 taxable year, the Bank is subject to a maximum federal income tax rate of 34%.

The Bank qualifies as a savings institution under the provisions of the Code and was therefore, prior to January 1, 1996, permitted to deduct from taxable income an allowance for bad debts based upon eight percent of taxable income before such deduction, less certain adjustments. Retained earnings at December 31, 2009 and 2008, include approximately $6.9 million of such bad debt, which, in accordance with FASB ACS 740 “Accounting for Income Taxes,” is considered permanent difference between the book and income tax basis of loans receivable, and for which income taxes have not been provided.

Bad Debt Reserves . For fiscal years beginning prior to December 31, 1995, thrift institutions which qualified under certain definitional tests and other conditions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”) were permitted to use certain favorable provisions to calculate their deductions from taxable income for annual additions to their bad debt reserve. A reserve could be established for bad debts on qualifying real property loans (generally secured by interests in real property improved or to be improved) under (i) the Percentage of Taxable Income Method (the “PTI Method”) or (ii) the Experience Method. The Bank’s reserve for nonqualifying loans was computed using the Experience Method.

The Small Business Job Protection Act of 1996 (the “1996 Act”), which was enacted on August 20, 1996, requires savings institutions to recapture (i.e., take into income) certain portions of their accumulated bad debt

reserves. The 1996 Act repeals the reserve method of accounting for bad debts effective for tax years beginning after 1995. Thrift institutions that would be treated as small banks are allowed to utilize the Experience Method applicable to such institutions, while thrift institutions that are treated as large banks (those generally exceeding $500 million in assets) are required to use only the specific charge-off method. Thus, the PTI Method of accounting for bad debts is no longer available for any financial institution.

A thrift institution required to change its method of computing reserves for bad debts will treat such change as a change in method of accounting, initiated by the taxpayer, and having been made with the consent of the IRS. Any Section 481(a) adjustment required to be taken into income with respect to such change generally will be taken into income ratably over a six-taxable year period, beginning with the first taxable year beginning after 1995, subject to the residential loan requirement.

Distributions . Under the 1996 Act, if the Bank makes “non-dividend distributions” to the Company, such distributions will be considered to have been made from the Bank’s unrecaptured tax bad debt reserves (including the balance of its reserves as of December 31, 1987) to the extent thereof, and then from the Bank’s supplemental reserve for losses on loans, to the extent thereof, and an amount based on the amount distributed (but not in excess of the amount of such reserves) will be included in the Bank’s income. Non-dividend distributions include distributions in excess of the Bank’s current and accumulated earnings and profits, as calculated for federal income tax purposes, distributions in redemption of stock, and distributions in partial or complete liquidation. Dividends paid out of the Bank’s current or accumulated earnings and profits will not be so included in the Bank’s income.

The amount of additional taxable income triggered by a non-dividend is an amount that, when reduced by the tax attributable to the income, is equal to the amount of the distribution. Thus, if the Bank makes a non-dividend distribution to the Company, approximately one and one-half times the amount of such distribution (but not in excess of the amount of such reserves) would be includable in income for federal income tax purposes, assuming a 34% federal corporate income tax rate. The Banks does not intend to pay dividends that would result in a recapture of any portion of its bad debt reserves.

State and Local Taxation

New Jersey Taxation . The Company, the Bank and the Bank’s subsidiaries, Pamrapo Service Corporation and Pamrapo Investment Company, file separate New Jersey income tax returns. For New Jersey income tax purposes, savings institutions are presently taxed at a rate equal to 9.36% of taxable income. For this purpose, “taxable income” generally means federal taxable income, subject to certain adjustments (including addition of interest income on state and municipal obligations). For New Jersey income tax purposes, regular corporations are presently taxed at a rate equal to 9% of taxable income (7.5% is the rate if taxable income is less than $100,000) and investment companies are presently taxed at a rate equal to 3.60% of taxable income.

Personnel

As of December 31, 2009, the Bank had 87 full-time employees and 23 part-time employees. The employees are not represented by a collective bargaining unit and the Bank considers its relationship with its employees to be good.

Website Access to Company Reports

The Company’s Internet address is www.pamrapo.com. The Company makes available free of charge through the Investor Relations section of its website its annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), as soon as reasonably practicable after these materials are electronically filed with, or furnished to, the SEC.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Government investigations may reduce our earnings.

On March 29, 2010, the Bank entered into a plea agreement with the United States Attorney’s Office for the District of New Jersey and the U.S. Department of Justice (collectively, the “United States”) to resolve a previously disclosed investigation into the Bank’s Bank Secrecy Act/Anti-Money Laundering (“BSA/AML”) compliance program. The plea agreement was approved by the Bank and the United States, and was accepted by the United States District Court for New Jersey.

Under the plea agreement, the Bank forfeited $5 million to the United States. In addition to the $5 million forfeiture, the Bank agreed to a consent order and payment of a civil money penalty of $5 million assessed concurrently by the OTS relating to the Bank’s BSA/AML compliance controls. The penalty does not require a separate payment to the OTS or United States from the amount forfeited pursuant to the plea agreement. There is a potential for additional losses regarding the United States investigation. Such additional losses would relate to potential criminal fines that may be imposed separately by a court, and civil money penalties that may be imposed by the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), a part of the United States Treasury Department, and could have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, and regulatory capital ratios. In addition, regardless of the outcome of the investigation, the Company may continue to incur substantial costs in dealing with these matters, which could continue to reduce the Company’s earnings.

Forensic audit of Pamrapo Service Corporation may disrupt our business, cause us to incur significant expenses and affect our financial statements for the current and prior periods.

As described in Part II, Item 9A, Controls and Procedures of this Form 10-K and Note 24 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-K, in August 2008, management became aware that certain commission payments from a third-party broker, which were payable to the Corporation, as required by its policies and procedures, were being paid directly to the manager of Pamrapo Service Corporation (the “Manager”). The direct payments to the Manager were made pursuant to a letter between a third-party broker and the president of the Corporation. These direct payments constituted a change in commission structure, which was made without the approval of the board of directors of the Corporation, as required by its policies and procedures.

Following an internal inquiry into this matter, the Bank determined, based upon the knowledge and understanding at the time of the individuals who conducted the inquiries, that $270,357 was owed by the Manager to the Corporation for commissions paid directly to the Manager for the period from August 2007 to December 2008. The $270,357 was repaid by or on behalf of the Manager to the Corporation, and the Company recognized the amount of $270,357 in earnings during the fourth quarter of 2008.

On February 24, 2009, the Audit Committee of the Bank engaged independent forensic accountants to assist with an internal investigation of the business and financial records of the Corporation. On May 5, 2009, the independent forensic accountants issued a report to the Bank’s Audit Committee with respect to the results of their internal investigation (the “Report”). The Report indicates that, based upon the information presented to the forensic accountants on or before April 24, 2009 and the procedures that they performed, the forensic accountants determined that the Manager received funds in the form of commission income directly from broker-dealers and insurance carriers beginning in the year 2005 through his termination on February 12, 2009. According to the Report, the independent forensic accountants determined that, as of May 5, 2009, excluding the $270,357 previously paid to the Corporation, an additional $224,559 in commission revenue for the fiscal years 2005 through 2008 is due to the Corporation by the Manager and certain other individuals previously affiliated with the Corporation. Recovery of any of these amounts is subject to several contingencies, including any claims or defenses put forth by any person or entity that the Bank would choose to seek recovery from, including, but not limited to, the former Manager of the Corporation. The amounts are subject to change, based on the receipt of

further information. Management has determined that the item is a gain contingency and, in accordance with FASB ASC 450 “Contingencies,” has not reflected any amounts in its consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2009. If it is determined that the Corporation is in fact entitled to any of these amounts and they are in fact recovered, the amounts could be material to the Bank’s current and previously issued consolidated financial statements, and restatements of certain consolidated financial statements may be necessary.

The Report reflects the determinations of the independent forensic accountants, based upon information received and procedures performed through the date of the Report. Pamrapo’s management, board of directors and Audit Committee are still in the process of evaluating the Report and other information as it becomes available to determine additional amounts due, if any.

If we are unsuccessful in our effort to remediate our material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting over time, it may adversely impact our ability to report our financial condition and results of operations in the future.

As discussed in Part II, Item 9A, Controls and Procedures of this Form 10-K, due to a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, our management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting were not effective as of December 31, 2009. Although, we have taken, and are continuing to take, actions to remediate the weakness in internal control over financial reporting, if we are unsuccessful in our focused effort to permanently and effectively remediate the weakness over time, it may adversely impact our ability to report our financial condition and results of operations in the future accurately and in a timely manner, and may potentially adversely impact our reputation with stockholders.

The Bank is subject to two cease and desist orders, which could adversely affect us.

The Bank is subject to supervision and regulation by the OTS. As a regulated savings bank, the Bank’s good standing with its regulators is of fundamental importance to the continuation of its business. On January 21, 2010, the Bank consented to the Order issued by the OTS on the same date. The Order was issued as a result of matters relating to the Bank’s compliance with certain laws and regulations, and deficiencies in its operations and management. The Order requires the Bank to prepare and submit to the OTS an updated three-year business plan for calendar years 2010 to 2012, and to prepare and submit to the OTS a management plan. The Order also required the Bank to appoint, by April 15, 2010, at least three (3) new independent members to the Bank’s board of directors in the event that the sale or merger of the Bank is not completed by March 31, 2010. The Bank, pursuant to the Order, shall not increase its total assets during any quarter in excess of an amount equal to net interest credited on deposit liabilities during the prior quarter without the prior permission of the OTS. The Order also requires the Bank to maintain adequate and effective internal controls and corporate governance policies, procedures and practices, including an internal audit program, an independent compliance oversight program, and an effective internal loan review program and to take certain other actions identified by the OTS in the Order. The Bank has already begun to implement several initiatives to enhance, among other things, its management and corporate governance in accordance with the requirements of the Order.

On September 26, 2008, the Bank consented to the 2008 Order. The 2008 Order requires the Bank to strengthen its BSA/AML Program, to strengthen its Compliance Maintenance Program and internal controls related to those matters and to take certain other actions identified by the OTS in the 2008 Order. The Bank has and continues to take steps to remediate the deficiencies noted in the 2008 Order and to strengthen the Bank’s overall compliance programs, including initiatives implemented to enhance, among other things, the Bank’s BSA/AML Program and its Compliance Management Program. We cannot predict the further impact of the Order and the 2008 Order upon our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Any delay in completion of the Merger may significantly reduce the benefits expected to be obtained from the Merger.

In addition to the required regulatory clearances and approvals, the Merger is subject to a number of other conditions beyond the control of BCB and the Company that may prevent, delay or otherwise materially adversely affect its completion. BCB and the Company cannot predict whether and when these other conditions will be satisfied. Further, the requirements for obtaining the required approvals could delay the completion of the Merger for a significant period of time or prevent it from occurring. Any delay in completing the Merger may significantly reduce the synergies and other benefits that BCB and the Company expect to achieve if they successfully complete the Merger within the expected timeframe and integrate their respective businesses.

Failure to complete the Merger could negatively impact the share price and the future business results of the Company.

There is no assurance that conditions to completion of the Merger will be satisfied, including obtaining the necessary regulatory approvals. If the Merger is not completed for any reason, the price of the Company’s common stock and the future results of the Company could be adversely affected.

The current economic environment poses significant challenges for us and could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

We are operating in a challenging and uncertain economic environment, including generally uncertain national and local conditions. Financial institutions continue to be affected by sharp declines in the real estate market and constrained financial markets. Dramatic declines in the housing market over the past two years, with falling home prices and increasing foreclosures and unemployment, have resulted in significant write-downs of asset values by financial institutions. Continued declines in real estate values, home sales volumes and financial stress on borrowers as a result of the uncertain economic environment could have an adverse effect on our borrowers and their customers, which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. A worsening of these conditions would likely exacerbate the adverse effects on us. A further deterioration in local economic conditions in our markets could drive losses beyond that which is provided for in our allowance for loan losses. We may also face the following risks in connection with these events:

•

Domestic economic conditions that negatively affect housing prices and demand, the job market and the demand for other goods and services have resulted, and may continue to result, in a deterioration in credit quality of our loan portfolios, and such deterioration in credit quality has had, and could continue to have, a negative impact on our business.

•

Market developments may affect consumer confidence levels and may cause adverse changes in payment patterns, causing increases in delinquencies and default rates on loans and other credit facilities.

•

The processes we use to estimate allowance for loan losses and reserves may no longer be reliable because they rely on complex judgments, including forecasts of economic conditions, which may no longer be capable of accurate estimation.

•

Our ability to assess the creditworthiness of our customers may be impaired if the models and approaches we use to select, manage, and underwrite our customers become less predictive of future charge-offs.

•

We expect to face increased regulation of our industry, and compliance with such regulation may increase our costs, limit our ability to pursue business opportunities and increase compliance challenges.

As these conditions or similar ones continue to exist or worsen, we could experience continuing or increased adverse effects on our financial condition.

Liquidity risk could impair the Company’s ability to fund its operations and jeopardize its financial condition.

Liquidity is essential to the Company’s business. An inability to raise funds through deposits, borrowings, equity/debt offerings and other sources could have a substantial negative effect on the Company’s liquidity. The Company’s access to funding sources in amounts adequate to finance its activities, or on terms attractive to the Company, could be impaired by factors that affect the Company specifically or the financial services industry in general. Factors that could detrimentally impact the Company’s access to liquidity sources include a reduction in its credit ratings, if any, an increase in costs of capital in financial capital markets, a decrease in the level of its business activity due to a market downturn or adverse regulatory action against the Company, or a decrease in depositor or investor confidence in it. The Company’s ability to borrow could also be impaired by factors that are not specific to it, such as a severe disruption of the financial markets or negative views and expectations about the prospects for the financial services industry as a whole.

We rely, in part, on external financing to fund our operations and the unavailability of such funds in the future could adversely impact our growth strategy and prospects.

The Bank relies on deposits, advances from the FHLB-NY and other borrowings to fund its operations. In January 2010 the Bank was informed by the FHLB-NY about its decision to impose certain restrictions on the Bank’s credit activities. The Bank now is only able to do short term borrowings (30 days or less) and its eligibility to sell mortgage loans into the MPF Program has been suspended pending a determination by the FHLB-NY that the Bank again meets the eligibility requirements for participation in the MPF Program. The Bank’s line of credit with the FHLB-NY has not been reduced.

The Bank also recently was informed by the FRB-NY that the Bank (i) no longer qualifies for uncollateralized daylight credit, (ii) is no longer eligible to borrow under the FRB-NY Discount Window’s primary credit program, rather requests to borrow at the Window will be considered under the secondary credit program and granted on an overnight basis, and (iii) is now required to prefund its Automated Clearing House credit originations. As these restrictions continue to be in place, we could experience continuing or increased adverse effects on our growth strategy and prospects.

Although we consider our sources of funds adequate for our current capital needs, we may seek additional debt or equity capital in the future to achieve our long-term business objectives. The sale of equity or convertible debt securities in the future may be dilutive to our stockholders, and debt refinancing arrangements may require us to pledge some of our assets and enter into covenants that would restrict our ability to incur further indebtedness. There can be no assurance that additional financing sources, if sought, would be available to us or, if available, would be on terms favorable to us. If additional financing sources are unavailable or are not available on reasonable terms, our growth strategy and future prospects could be adversely affected.

Our business is subject to interest rate risk and variations in market interest rates may negatively affect our results of operations and financial condition.

We are unable to predict fluctuations of market interest rates, which are affected by many factors, including:

•

Inflation;

•

Recession;

•

Unemployment;

•

Monetary Policy; and

•

Domestic and international disorder and instability in domestic and foreign financial markets; and

•

Investor and consumer demand.

Changes in the interest rate environment may reduce our profits.

We expect that the Bank will continue to realize income from the differential or “spread” between the interest earned on loans, securities and other interest-earning assets, and interest paid on deposits, borrowings and other interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest spreads are affected by the difference between the maturities and repricing characteristics of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. In addition, an increase in the general level of interest rates may adversely affect the ability of some borrowers to pay the interest on and principal of their obligations, especially borrowers with loans subject to negative amortization. Negative amortization involves a greater risk during a period of rising interest rates because the loan principal may increase above the amount originally advanced, which could increase the risk of default. Accordingly, changes in levels of market interest rates could materially and adversely affect the Bank’s net interest spread, asset quality, levels of prepayments and cash flows as well as the market value of its securities portfolio and overall profitability.

The Bank’s ability to pay dividends is subject to regulatory limitations which, to the extent we require such dividends in the future, may affect our ability to service our debt and pay dividends.

The Company is a separate legal entity from its subsidiaries and does not have significant operations of its own. The availability of dividends from the Bank is limited by various statutes and regulations. It is possible, depending upon the financial condition of the Bank and other factors, that the OTS, the Bank’s primary regulator, could assert that payment of dividends or other payments by the Bank is an unsafe or unsound practice. In the event the Bank is unable to pay dividends to us, we may not be able to service our debt, pay our obligations as they become due, or pay dividends on our common stock. Consequently, the inability to receive dividends from the Bank could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

We may need to continue to increase our allowance for loan losses in material amounts. We have also experienced and may continue to experience increases in net charge-offs.

Our customers may not repay their loans according to the original terms, and the collateral securing the payment of those loans may be insufficient to pay any remaining loan balance. While we maintain an allowance for loan losses to provide for loan defaults and non-performance losses may exceed the value of the collateral securing the loans and the allowance may not fully cover any excess loss.

Our allowance for loan losses is based on our historical loss experience, as well as an evaluation of the risks associated with our loans held for investment. The amount of future losses is susceptible to changes in economic, operating and other conditions, including changes in interest rates, which may be beyond our control, and these losses may exceed current estimates. Federal regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, review our loans and allowance for loan losses. While we believe that our allowance for loan losses is adequate to cover current losses, we cannot provide assurance that we will not need to increase our allowance for loan losses or that regulators will not require us to increase this allowance. Either of these occurrences could materially and adversely affect our earnings and profitability. The determination of the appropriate level of the allowance for loan losses inherently involves a high degree of subjectivity and requires the Bank to make significant estimates of current credit risks and future trends, all of which may undergo material changes.

During the year ended December 31, 2009, we recorded a $4.0 million provision for loan losses and had net charge-offs of $2.1 million, compared to $1.6 million and $0.1 million respectively during the year ended December 31, 2008. This significant increase in the provision for loan losses is in response to two primary factors: first, the overall deterioration in the housing market in general in New Jersey which has caused an increase in the Bank’s non-performing loans, and second, an additional provision of $0.9 million for a commercial loan to a local hospital. The provision for loan losses included $0.3 million and $0.9 million in 2008 and 2009 respectively and $1.9 million in charge-offs in 2009 related to the above mentioned loan. We expect our loan loss provision to remain at elevated levels until non-performing assets and charge-offs improve.

Our business is subject to various lending and other economic risks that could adversely impact our results of operations and financial condition.

Further deterioration in economic conditions, particularly in New Jersey, could hurt our business. Our business is directly affected by political and market conditions, broad trends in industry and finance, legislative and regulatory changes, changes in governmental monetary and fiscal policies and inflation, all of which are beyond our control. Further deterioration in economic conditions, in particular within New Jersey, could result in the following consequences, any of which could hurt our business materially:

•

Loan delinquencies may increase;

•

Problem assets and foreclosures may increase;

•

Demand for our products and services may decline; and

•

Collateral for loans made by us, especially real estate may decline in value, in turn reducing a client’s borrowing power, and reducing the value of assets and collateral associated with our loans held for investment.

A further downturn in the New Jersey real estate market could hurt our business.

Our business activities and credit exposure are concentrated in real estate lending in New Jersey. During 2009, the market for residential housing continued to experience dramatic declines, with falling home prices and increasing foreclosures. We significantly increased our provision for loan losses in fiscal year 2009. A further downturn in the New Jersey real estate market could hurt our business because the vast majority of our loans are secured by real estate located within New Jersey. If the significant decline in real estate values continues, especially in New Jersey, the collateral for our loans will provide increasingly less security. As a result, our ability to recover the principal amount due on defaulted loans by selling the underlying real estate will be diminished, and we will be more likely to suffer losses on defaulted loans.

We may suffer losses in our loan portfolio despite our underwriting practices.

We seek to mitigate the risks inherent in our loan portfolio by adhering to specific underwriting practices. These practices include analysis of a borrower’s prior credit history, financial statements, tax returns and cash flow projections, valuation of collateral based on reports of independent appraisers and verification of liquid assets. If the underwriting process fails to capture accurate information or proves to be inadequate, we may incur losses on loans that meet our underwriting criteria, and those losses may exceed the amounts set aside as reserves in our allowance for loan losses.

Recent changes in our management may cause uncertainty in, or be disruptive to, our general business operations.

On February 13, 2009, William J. Campbell retired as President, Chief Executive Officer and director of the Company and the Bank. Mr. Campbell had been with the Company and the Bank for over 40 years and had served as President and Chief Executive Officer since 1970. The Company’s board of directors has established a search committee that is in the process of seeking a permanent candidate to fill the position. In the meantime, Kenneth D. Walter, Vice President, Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company and the Bank, has been appointed as Interim President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Bank. This change in our management may be disruptive to our business and during the transition period there may be uncertainty with our stockholders and the Bank’s customers and employees concerning our future direction and performance. Our success will depend on our ability to attract, hire and retain senior management and other key personnel and on the abilities of the new management personnel to function effectively going forward.

Our former President and Chief Executive Officer owns a significant amount of our common stock and may make decisions that are not in the best interests of all stockholders.

As of January 12, 2010, William J. Campbell, our former President and Chief Executive Officer, owned approximately 12.18% of our outstanding common stock. As a result, he will have the ability to significantly influence the outcome of any other matters to be decided by a vote of stockholders.

We are subject to extensive regulation, which could adversely affect us.

Our operations are subject to extensive regulation by federal, state and local governmental authorities and are subject to various laws and judicial and administrative decisions imposing requirements and restrictions on part or all of our operations. Our business is highly regulated, and the laws, rules and regulations applicable to us are subject to regular modification and change. There can be no assurance that there will be no laws, rules or regulations adopted in the future, which could make compliance more difficult or expensive, or otherwise adversely affect our business, financial condition or prospects.

We face strong competition from other financial institutions, financial service companies and other organizations offering services similar to those offered by us, which could hurt our business.

We conduct our business operations primarily in New Jersey. Increased competition within our market area may result in reduced loan originations and deposits. Ultimately, we may not be able to compete successfully against current and future competitors. Many competitors offer the types of loans and banking services that we offer. These competitors include other savings associations, national banks, regional banks and other community banks. We also face competition from many other types of financial institutions, including finance companies, brokerage firms, insurance companies, credit unions, mortgage banks and other financial intermediaries. In particular, our competitors include national banks and major financial companies whose greater resources may afford them a marketplace advantage by enabling them to maintain numerous banking locations and mount extensive promotional and advertising campaigns.

Additionally, banks and other financial institutions with larger capitalization and financial intermediaries not subject to bank regulatory restrictions have larger lending limits and are thereby able to serve the credit needs of larger clients. These institutions, particularly to the extent they are more diversified than we are, may be able to offer the same loan products and services that we offer at more competitive rates and prices. If we are unable to attract and retain banking clients, we may be unable to continue our loan and deposit growth and our business, financial condition and prospects may be negatively affected.

Recent legislative and regulatory initiatives to support the financial services industry have been coupled with numerous restrictions and requirements that could detrimentally affect the Company’s business and require us to raise additional capital.

In addition to the U.S. Treasury’s Capital Purchase Program (“CPP”) under the Troubled Asset Relief Program (“TARP”) announced in the fall of 2008, the U.S. Treasury and the FDIC have taken further steps to support and regulate the financial services industry, that include enhancing the liquidity support available to financial institutions, establishing a commercial paper funding facility, temporarily guaranteeing money market funds and certain types of debt issuances, and increasing insurance on bank deposits. Also, the U.S. Congress, through the EESA and the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, has imposed a number of restrictions and limitations on the operations of financial services firms participating in the federal programs. These programs subject us and other financial institutions who participate in them to (1) additional restrictions, oversight, reporting obligations and costs; and (2) compensation restrictions that limit our ability to attract and retain executives, each of which could have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations or the price of our common stock. In addition, new proposals for legislation continue to be introduced in the U.S. Congress that could further substantially increase regulation of the financial services industry and

impose restrictions on the ability of firms within the industry to conduct business consistent with historical practices, including aspects such as compensation, interest rates, new and inconsistent consumer protection regulations and mortgage regulation, among others. Federal and state regulatory agencies also frequently adopt changes to their regulations or change the manner in which existing regulations are applied. We cannot predict the substance or impact of pending or future legislation or regulation, or the application thereof. Compliance with such current and potential regulation and scrutiny may significantly increase our costs, impede the efficiency of our internal business processes, require us to increase our regulatory capital and limit our ability to pursue business opportunities in an efficient manner.

Higher FDIC deposit insurance premiums and assessments could adversely affect Pamrapo Bancorp’s financial condition.

The Bank’s FDIC insurance premiums have increased substantially in 2009. The Bank expects to pay significantly higher premiums in the future. A large number of depository institution failures have significantly depleted the Deposit Insurance Fund (“DIF”) and reduced the ratio of reserves to insured deposits. In order to restore the DIF reserve ratio to its statutorily mandated minimum of 1.15 percent over a period of several years, the FDIC increased deposit insurance premium rates at the beginning of 2009 and imposed a special assessment on June 30, 2009, which amounted to $263,000 for the Bank. Given the continued decline in the DIF balance, the FDIC may impose additional special emergency assessments in the future that will impact the Bank’s capital levels and earnings.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

On March 29, 2010, the Bank entered into a plea agreement with the United States to resolve a previously disclosed investigation into the Bank’s BSA/AML compliance program. The plea agreement was approved by the Bank and the United States, and was accepted by the United States District Court for New Jersey.

Under the agreement, the Bank pleaded guilty to a criminal information charging it with a single count of conspiracy to fail to file Currency Transaction Reports and Suspicious Activity Reports and to fail to establish an adequate anti-money laundering program as required by the Bank Secrecy Act and its implementing regulations (the “Information”). The Bank forfeited $5 million to the United States.

According to the terms of the plea, the United States has agreed that it will not bring any additional criminal charges against the Bank in connection with the criminal conduct alleged in the Information. The plea agreement reflects that the Bank has fully cooperated with the criminal investigation. The Bank continues to cooperate fully with the criminal investigation. On March 29, 2010, the Bank agreed to a consent order and payment of a civil money penalty of $5 million assessed concurrently by the OTS relating to the Bank’s BSA/AML compliance controls. The penalty does not require a separate payment to the OTS or United States from the amount forfeited pursuant to the agreement with the United States. The Bank has not yet entered into a consent order with the FinCEN.

Reserves totalling $5 million for the forfeiture and the concurrent OTS civil money penalty were previously established by the Bank as reported in Forms 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 23, 2009 and December 7, 2009.

Class Action Lawsuit. On July 8, 2009, certain stockholders filed a purported class action lawsuit seeking relief with respect to the Merger. On December 8, 2009, the plaintiffs filed a motion for a preliminary injunction seeking to enjoin the special meeting previously scheduled for December 22, 2009 until the Company disseminated an amendment to the respective proxy statement that provided certain information that the plaintiffs asserted was material. The supplemental disclosures, were made by the Company on January 1, 2010 pursuant to an agreement with the plaintiffs, whereby the plaintiffs agreed to withdraw their pending motion for injunctive relief in relation to the merger (but not any claims for money damages) provided that the Company included the supplemental disclosures. On February 11, 2010, the stockholders voted to approve the Merger and adopt the Merger Agreement.

William Campbell’s Lawsuit . On December 2, 2009, William J. Campbell, who is the largest stockholder of the Company and was the Bank’s former President and Chief Executive Officer from 1970 until February 13, 2009, filed a complaint in the Superior Court of New Jersey in Hudson County against the Company, the Bank, and each of its directors. The complaint alleged, among other things, that the Company’s directors were in breach of their fiduciary duties to stockholders in connection with the Company’s entry into the merger agreement. Additionally, the complaint alleged that the Company failed to disclose that Kenneth Poesl and Robert Doria, former directors of BCB and now directors of the Company, still own BCB stock. The complaint sought, among other things, for the Court to award unspecified money damages to Mr. Campbell and enjoin the defendants from consummating the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement and to award the plaintiff attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred in bringing the lawsuit. Mr. Campbell simultaneously filed an Order to Show Cause Seeking Preliminary Injunction. Mr. Campbell’s lawsuit was identified as a related case to the pending, and previously mentioned, consolidated purported class action lawsuit.

On December 16, 2009, the Superior Court of New Jersey, Chancery Division entered an Order enjoining Pamrapo from conducting its special meeting of stockholders on December 22, 2009 or otherwise consummating the merger until further order of the court and ordering that the special meeting be conducted on February 11, 2010.

On February 11, 2010 the stockholders voted to approve the Merger and adopt the Merger Agreement and on February 16, 2010, the Superior Court of New Jersey, Hudson County, Chancery Division, entered an Order dissolving its injunction against the consummation and closing of the merger between Pamrapo and BCB Bancorp, Inc.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Executive Overview

The Company owns 100% of the issued and outstanding stock of the Bank, which is the primary asset of the Company. The Company’s business is conducted principally through the Bank.

The Bank’s principal business has been and continues to be attracting retail deposits from the general public and investing those deposits, together with funds generated from operations, primarily in one-to-four family, owner occupied residential mortgage loans. In addition, in times of low loan demand, the Bank will invest in mortgage-backed securities to supplement its lending portfolio. The Bank also invests, to a lesser extent, in multi-family residential mortgage loans, commercial real estate loans, home equity and second mortgage loans, consumer loans and commercial loans. The earnings of the Bank depend primarily upon the level of net interest income, which is the difference between the interest earned on assets such as loans, mortgage-backed securities, investments and other interest-earning assets, and the interest paid on liabilities such as deposits and borrowings. Net interest income is affected by many factors, including regulatory, economic and competitive factors that influence interest rates, loan demand and deposit flow. Net interest income is also affected by the amount, composition and relative interest rates of the Bank’s assets and liabilities and by the repricing of such assets and liabilities. The Bank is vulnerable to interest rate fluctuations to the extent that its interest-bearing liabilities mature or reprice more rapidly than its interest-earning assets. Such asset/liability structure may result in lower net interest income during periods of rising interest rates and may be beneficial in times of declining interest rates. The Bank’s net income is also affected by provisions for loan losses, non-interest income, non-interest expenses and income taxes.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Allowance for Loan Losses . The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses to absorb losses inherent in the loan portfolio. We consider accounting policies involving significant judgments and assumptions by management that have, or could have, a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets or on income, to be critical accounting policies. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant changes relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses. Determining the amount of the allowance for loan losses necessarily involves a high degree of judgment. Management reviews the level of the allowance on a quarterly basis, at a minimum, and establishes the provision for loan losses based on the composition of the loan portfolio, delinquency levels, loss experience in the loan portfolio, economic conditions, collateral values, and other factors related to the collectability of the loan portfolio. Since there has been no material change in the loan portfolio, the level of the allowance for loan losses has changed primarily due to changes in the size of the loan portfolio and the level of nonperforming loans.

We have allocated the allowance among categories of loan types as well as classification status at each period-end date. Assumptions and allocation percentages are based on loan types and classification status. The loss allowance is established by applying a loss percentage factor to the different types of loans . Management regularly evaluates various risk factors related to the loan portfolio, such as type of loan, underlying collateral and payment status, and the corresponding allowance allocation percentages. Although we believe that we use the best information available to establish the allowance for loan losses, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on estimates that are susceptible to change as a result of changes in economic conditions and other factors. In addition, the regulatory authorities, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review our allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require us to recognize adjustments to the allowance based on their judgment about information available to them at the time of their examinations.

Deferred Income Taxes . Deferred income tax expense or benefit is determined by recognizing deferred tax assets and liabilities for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those

temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The realization of deferred tax assets is assessed and a valuation allowance provided, when necessary, for that portion of the asset which is not likely to be realized.

Pension Plan Assumptions . Our pension plan costs are calculated using actuarial concepts, as discussed within the requirements of FASB ASC 715 “Compensation—Retirement Benefits” and FASB ASC 960 “Plan Accounting—Defined Benefit Pension Plan.” Pension expense and the determination of our projected pension liability are based upon two critical assumptions: the discount rate and the expected return on plan assets. We evaluate each of these critical assumptions annually. Other assumptions impact the determination of pension expense and the projected liability, including the primary employee demographics such as retirement patterns, employee turnover, mortality rates, and estimated employer compensation increases. These factors, along with the critical assumptions, are carefully reviewed by management each year in consultation with our pension plan consultants and actuaries. Further information about our pension plan assumptions, the plan’s funded status, and other plan information is included in Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

“Other Than Temporary” Impairment of Investment Securities . Investment securities are written down to their net realizable value when there is impairment in value that is considered to be “other than temporary.” The determination of whether or not “other than temporary” impairment exists is a matter of judgment. Management reviews its investment securities portfolio regularly for possible impairment that is “other than temporary” by analyzing the facts and circumstances of each investment and the expectations for that investment’s performance.

Changes In Financial Condition

The Company’s consolidated assets at December 31, 2009 totaled $557.8 million, which represents a decrease of $40.2 million or 6.7% when compared to $598.0 million at December 31, 2008. This decrease is primarily the result of decreases in loans receivable and mortgage backed securities.

Securities available for sale decreased $59,000 or 7.7% to $712,000 at December 31, 2009 when compared to $771,000 at December 31, 2008. The decrease during the year ended December 31, 2009 resulted primarily from principal repayments of $103,000 on securities available for sale, partly offset by a decrease of $44,000 in unrealized losses.

Investment securities held to maturity decreased $13,000 or 0.1% to $11.3 million at December 31, 2009.

Mortgage-backed securities held to maturity decreased $29.6 million or 25.2% to $87.8 million at December 31, 2009 from $117.4 million at December 31, 2008. The decrease during the year ended December 31, 2009 resulted from principal repayments of mortgage-backed securities.

Net loans amounted to $421.0 million and $437.6 million at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, which represents a decrease of $16.6 million or 3.8%, primarily due to loan repayments of $67.9 million which exceeded loan originations by $13.5 million. An increase in the allowance for loan losses of $1.9 million also contributed to the current year decrease in the net loans receivable.

Foreclosed real estate amounted to $384,000 and $426,000 at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, which represents a decrease of $42,000 or 10%, resulting from a 10% writedown in asset value. Total deposits at December 31, 2009 increased $500,000 or .1% to $444.5 million compared to $444.0 million at December 31, 2008.

Advances from the FHLB-NY totaled $51.0 million and $89.5 million at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The decrease of $38.5 million or 43.0% during the year ending December 31, 2009 resulted from repayments of advances and overnight borrowings to FHLB-NY.

Stockholder’s equity amounted to $48.2 million and $54.7 million at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, a net loss of $6.6 million and net income of $2.5 million, respectively, were recorded and cash dividends of $1.3 million and $4.2 million, respectively, were paid on the Company’s common stock. Accumulated other comprehensive loss decreased $1.4 million net of taxes, or 45.2% to $1.7 million at December 31, 2009 from $3.1 million at December 31, 2008, primarily due to adjustments pertaining to the Bank’s defined benefit plans liabilities.

Results of Operations For The Years Ended December 31, 2009 and 2008

Net Income (Loss)

The net loss for the year ended December 31, 2009 totaled $6.6 million as compared to net income of $2.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, or a decrease of $9.1 million. This decrease resulted primarily from a $9.1 million increase in total non-interest expenses and a $2.4 million increase in the provision for loan losses, partly offset by a decrease in income taxes of $2.4 million. The $9.1 million increase in total non-interest expenses was primarily driven by a $5.0 million litigation loss reserve accrued in 2009, a $2.1 million increase in professional fees and a $1.4 million increase in FDIC premiums.

The increase in professional fees during the 2009 fiscal year, as compared to the 2008 fiscal year, was predominately due to expenses incurred for legal, accounting and other professional services as a result of the federal grand jury investigation, and fees paid to consultants that the Bank engaged as a result of the 2008 Order.

FDIC premiums increased as a result of an increase in premium rates, the depletion of assessment credits previously in effect and a special assessment during the quarter ended June 30, 2009 of $270,000.

The increase in the provision for loan losses during the 2009 fiscal year, as compared to the 2008 fiscal year was primarily due to an increase in the Bank’s non-performing loans, which were $22.6 million at December 31, 2009 compared to $10.8 million at December 31, 2008.

Interest Income

Interest income on loans during the year ended December 31, 2009 decreased by $1.8 million or 6.5% to $25.9 million when compared with $27.7 million during 2008. The decrease during the 2009 period resulted from a decrease of $7.7 million or 1.8% in the average balance of loans outstanding, along with a decrease of 32 basis points in the yield earned on loans. During the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, the yield earned on the loan portfolio was 6.08% and 6.40%, respectively. The average balance on loans outstanding during the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 totaled $425.9 million and $433.7 million, respectively.

Interest on mortgage-backed securities decreased $989,000 or 17.5% to $4.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2009, when compared with $5.6 million for 2008. During the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, the average balance on mortgage-backed securities totaled $102.8 million and $124.0 million, respectively, resulting in a net decrease of $21.2 million or 17.1%. The yield earned on the mortgage-backed securities was 4.53% and 4.55% during 2009 and 2008, respectively. Interest earned on investments securities increased by $78,000 or 9.2% to $929,000 during the year ended December 31, 2009, when compared to $851,000 in 2008. The increase during the year ended December 31, 2009 resulted from an increase of $463,000 or 4.1% in the average balance of the investment securities portfolio, along with an increase of 37 basis points in the yield on the portfolio from 7.57% in 2008 to 7.94% in 2009.

Interest on other interest-earning assets decreased by $746,000 or 76.9% to $224,000 during the year ended December 31, 2009, when compared to $970,000 during 2008. The decrease during the year ended December 31, 2009 resulted from a decrease of 187 basis points in the yield on the other interest-earning assets portfolio from 2.78% in 2008 to .91% in 2009 and a decrease of $10.3 million or 29.4% in the average balance of the other interest-earning assets portfolio.

Interest Expense

Interest expense on deposits decreased $3.2 million or 27.9% to $8.3 million during the year ended December 31, 2009, when compared to $11.5 million during 2008. This decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease of 62 basis points in the average cost of interest-bearing deposits to 2.03% in 2009 from 2.65% for 2008, along with a decrease of $24.8 million or 5.7% in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits outstanding. Interest expense on advances from the FHLB and overnight borrowings decreased $706,000 or 18.1% to $3.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2009, when compared with $3.9 million during 2008. The decrease during 2009 was attributable to a decrease of $10.5 million or 13.4% in the average balance of advances and overnight borrowings outstanding, in addition to a decrease of 28 basis points in the cost of advances and overnight borrowings from 4.99% for 2008 to 4.71% for 2009.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the year ended December 31, 2009 increased $427,000 or 2.2% to $20.2 million for 2009 as compared to $19.8 million for 2008. The Bank’s net interest rate spread increased from 2.83% in 2008 to 3.21% in 2009. The increase in net interest rate spread primarily resulted from a 60 point decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities from 3.01% in 2008 to 2.41% in 2009, sufficient to offset a 22 point decrease in the yield of average interest-earning assets from 5.83% in 2008 to 5.61% in 2009. The average balance of interest-earning assets amounted to $565.1 million in 2009 and $603.8 in 2008 and the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities amounted to $477.3 million in 2009 and $512.5 million in 2008.

Provision For Loan Losses

During the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Bank provided $4.0 million and $1.6 million, respectively, as a provision for loan losses. The $2.4 million increase in the provision for loan losses, from the 2008 to the 2009 period, was primarily due to a deterioration in the housing market in general in New Jersey, and an increase in the Bank’s non-performing loans, which were $22.6 million at December 31, 2009 compared to $10.8 million at December 31, 2008.

During the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Bank charged off $2.1 million and $124,000, respectively. There were also no recoveries during either period. Included in the $2.1 million amount charged off in 2009 was $1.9 million for a commercial loan to a local hospital. In October 2006, $1.0 million of the total $3.0 million due on the loan was paid and the remaining contractual balance of approximately $1.9 million was secured by a mortgage on real estate. The $1.9 million was due on June 1, 2007. The repayment of the loan was subject to bankruptcy proceedings. In September 2008, the creditor’s committee for the hospital filed a complaint against the Bank seeking to recover the $1.0 million previously paid on the loan and to set aside the mortgage securing the $1.9 million still owed to the Bank, charging that the payment and the mortgage were “avoidable preferences.”

On June 9, 2009, the Liquidating Trustee for the hospital filed a motion providing for an auction sale of the two mortgaged properties to be sold free and clear of all liens, with liens to attach to the proceeds of sale. The Bank did not oppose the motion and the auction sale was held at a hearing on July 20, 2009. The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey, by orders dated July 23, 2009, approved separate bids to acquire the properties for a total of $1.6 million. The closings took place on August 5, 2009 and August 6, 2009, respectively. Net proceeds of the sale, after deducting taxes, real estate commissions and other closing costs, were approximately $1.5 million.

In November 2009, the parties in the litigation filed motions for summary judgment. On December 29, 2009, the Bankruptcy Court ruled in favor of the Bank and against the creditor’s committee motion to recover from the Bank the $1.0 million previously paid on the loan in October 2006. On that same date, the Court also ruled in favor of the Liquidating Trustee on the mortgage, ruling that the Bank does not have a security interest in

the property. As a result, the Bank is deemed an unsecured creditor with a lower priority in the future distribution from the Liquidating Trustee, who will be entitled to the sum of approximately $1.5 million, which is currently held in escrow, along with other funds that are being held by the Liquidating Trustee pending the resolution of the bankruptcy proceedings. The Liquidating Trustee will distribute such funds, including the Bank’s proportion of its $1.9 million claim, at a yet to be determined date. Based on the fact that the Bank is deemed an unsecured creditor with a lower priority in the future distribution from the Liquidating Trustee, the Company’s board of directors decided on January 20, 2010 to write off the full amount of this loan as of December 31, 2009.

The allowance for loan losses amounted to $6.6 million at December 31, 2009, representing 1.54% of total loans and 29.2% of loans delinquent ninety days or more, and $4.7 million at December 31, 2008, representing 1.05% of total loans and 43.15% of loans delinquent ninety days or more. Economic conditions deteriorated in New Jersey, as evidenced by an increase in unemployment, a reduction in the number of home sales and weak consumer confidence.

The allowance for loan losses is based on management’s evaluation of the risk inherent in its loan portfolio and gives due consideration to the changes in general economic and real estate market conditions and in the nature and volume of the Bank’s loan activity. The Bank intends to continue to provide for loan losses based on its periodic review of the loan portfolio and general economic and real estate market conditions. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses totaling $6.6 million, is sufficient to absorb estimated losses inherent in the portfolio.

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest income decreased by $378,000 or 15.6% during the year ended December 31, 2009, to $2.0 million, as compared to $2.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2008. This change resulted from decreases in commissions from sale of financial products of $770,000 and fees and service charges in the amount of $120,000, partly offset by a gain on the sale of a branch in the amount of $492,000 in March, 2009 and an increase in other non-interest income in the amount of $20,000. The decrease in commissions from sale of financial products was primarily due to management’s decision to eliminate the sale of financial products to the general public in April of 2009 as a result of the on-going investigation in connection with these commissions as described below.

In August 2008, management became aware that certain commission payments from a third-party broker, which were payable to the Corporation, as required by its policies and procedures, were being paid directly to the Manager. The direct payments to the Manager were made pursuant to a letter between a third-party broker and the president of the Corporation. These direct payments constituted a change in commission structure, which was made without the approval of the board of directors of Pamrapo Service Corporation, as required by its policies and procedures.

$270,357 previously paid to the Corporation, an additional $224,559 in commission revenue for the fiscal years 2005 through 2008 is due to the Corporation by the Manager and certain other individuals previously affiliated with the Corporation. Recovery of any of these amounts is subject to several contingencies, including any claims or defenses put forth by any person or entity that the Bank would choose to seek recovery from, including, but not limited to, the former Manager of the Corporation. The amounts are subject to change, based on the receipt of further information. Management has determined that the item is a gain contingency and, in accordance with FASB ASC 450 “Contingencies,” has not reflected any amounts in its consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2009. If it is determined that the Corporation is in fact entitled to any of these amounts and they are in fact recovered, the amounts could be material to the Bank’s current and previously issued consolidated financial statements, and restatements of certain consolidated financial statements may be necessary.

Non-Interest Expenses

Non-interest expenses increased by $9.1 million or 55.7% to $25.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2009, when compared with $16.5 million during 2008. Litigation loss reserve, professional fees, federal deposit insurance premiums and merger-related costs increased $5.0 million, $2.1 million, $1.4 million and $0.9 million, respectively, when compared with 2008.

In connection with the investigation conducted by the United States, on March 29, 2010, the Bank agreed to a consent order and payment of a civil money penalty of $5 million assessed concurrently by the OTS relating to the Bank’s BSA/AML compliance controls. The penalty does not require a separate payment to the OTS or United States from the amount forfeited pursuant to the agreement with the United States. The Bank has not yet entered into a consent order with the FinCEN. It is possible that the Bank will incur material losses in addition to the $5.0 million forfeiture paid to the United States; however the Bank is not able to reasonably estimate additional losses at this time. These additional losses relate to potential further criminal forfeitures and potential criminal fines that may be imposed separately by a court, and civil money penalties that may be imposed by FinCEN.

The increase in professional fees during the year ended December 31, 2009, as compared to the same 2008 period, was predominately due to expenses incurred for legal, accounting and other professional services as a result of the federal grand jury investigation by the U.S. Attorney’s Office and fees paid to consultants that the Bank engaged as a result of the 2008 Order.

Income Taxes

Income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2009 reflected a benefit of $697,000, representing an effective tax benefit rate of 9.55% as compared to an expense of $1.7 million for 2008, representing an effective tax rate of 41.21%. The decrease during the 2009 period resulted primarily from a decrease in pre-tax income of $11.5 million, which included a non-deductable litigation loss reserve of $5.0 million and non-deductible merger costs of $0.3 million.

Results of Operations For The Years Ended December 31, 2008 and 2007

Net income decreased by $1.9 million or 43.18% to $2.5 million during the year ended December 31, 2008 when compared to $4.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2007. The decrease in net income during the 2008 period was primarily due to an increase in total non-interest expenses of $2.6 million and a provision for loan losses of $960,000, along with a decrease in total interest income of $1.9 million, which more than offset an increase in total non-interest income of $76,000 and decreases in total interest expense of $2.7 million and income taxes of $779,000.

The decrease during the year ended December 31, 2008, resulted from a decrease of two-hundred eleven basis points in the yield earned on the other interest-earning assets portfolio from 4.89% in 2007 to 2.78% in 2008, which more than offset an increase of $2.9 million in the average balance of the other interest-earning assets portfolio.

Interest Expense

Interest on deposits decreased $2.2 million or 16.06% to $11.5 million during the year ended December 31, 2008 compared to $13.7 million for 2007. The decrease during 2008 was attributable to a decrease of forty-nine basis points in the Bank’s average cost of interest bearing deposits to 2.65% for 2008 from 3.14% for 2007, along with a decrease of $1.7 million or 0.39% in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits outstanding. Interest on advances and other borrowed money decreased $491,000 or 11.20% to $3.9 million during the year ended December 31, 2008 compared to $4.4 million for 2007. The decrease during 2008 was attributable to a decrease of $13.2 million or 14.46% in the average balance of advances and other borrowed money, which more than offset an increase of nineteen basis points in the Bank’s cost of borrowings from 4.80% for 2007 to 4.99% for 2008.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the year ended December 31, 2008 increased $790,000 or 4.15% to $19.8 million for 2008 as compared to $19.0 million for 2007. The Bank’s net interest rate spread increased from 2.56% in 2007 to 2.83% in 2008 and its interest rate margin increased from 3.07% in 2007 to 3.28% in 2008. The increase in net interest rate spread primarily resulted from a forty-two basis point decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities from 3.43% in 2007 to 3.01% in 2008, sufficient to offset a sixteen basis point decrease in the yield of average interest-earning assets from 5.99% in 2007 to 5.83% in 2008. The average balance of interest-earning assets amounted to $603.8 million in 2008 and $619.6 million in 2007 and the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities amounted to $512.5 million in 2008 and $527.5 million in 2007.

Provision For Loan Losses

During the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Bank provided $1.6 million and $670,000, respectively, for loan losses. At December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Bank’s loan portfolio included loans totaling $10.8 million and $5.5 million, respectively, which were delinquent ninety days or more. Included in the December 31, 2008 and 2007 total delinquent loans is the Bank’s largest non-accruing commercial loan of $1.9 million to a local hospital. The allowance for loan losses in 2008 included $941,000 relative to recording a

provision of approximately 50% of the amount of the loan to the local hospital. For the reasons mentioned before, the Company’s board of directors decided on January 20, 2010 to record a provision and to write off the remaining net loan balance of $941,000 as of December 31, 2009.

The Bank maintains an allowance for loan losses based on management’s evaluation of the risk inherent in its loan portfolio, which gives due consideration to changes in general market conditions and in the nature and volume of the Bank’s loan activity. The allowance for loan losses amounted to $4.66 million at December 31, 2008, representing 1.05% of total loans and 43.15% of loans delinquent ninety days or more, compared to an allowance of $3.15 million at December 31, 2007, representing 0.71% of total loans and 57.54% of loans delinquent ninety days or more. During the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Bank charged off loans aggregating $124,000 and $270,000, respectively, and recoveries totaled $0 and $104,000, respectively. The Bank monitors its loan portfolio and intends to continue to provide for loan losses based on its ongoing periodic review of the loan portfolio and general market conditions.

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest income increased by $76,000 or 3.30% to $2.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2008 as compared to $2.3 million for 2007. The increase in non-interest income during 2008 resulted primarily from increases in other income of $131,000, sufficient to offset decreases in fees and service charges of $10,000 and commissions from sale of financial products of $45,000.

Commissions from sale of financial products includes commissions received by Pamrapo Service Corporation (“Corporation”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Bank, due to the sale of products such as securities, life insurance, and annuities. Commissions received related to securities are received from a third-party broker dealer. Pursuant to the Corporation’s policies, such commissions are to be paid directly to the Corporation, which, in conjunction with the Bank, then determines the amount of commission payments to be made to the Corporation’s employees and agents.

In August 2008, management became aware that certain commission payments from a third-party broker, which were payable to Pamrapo Service Corporation, as required by its policies and procedures, were being paid directly to the manager of Pamrapo Service Corporation (the “Manager”). The direct payments to the Manager were made pursuant to a letter between a third-party broker and the president of Pamrapo Service Corporation. These direct payments constituted a change in commission structure, which was made without the approval of the board of directors of Pamrapo Service Corporation, as required by its policies and procedures.

Following an internal inquiry into this matter, the Bank determined, based upon the knowledge and understanding at the time of the individuals who conducted the inquiries, that $270,357 was owed by the Manager to the Pamrapo Service Corporation for commissions paid directly to the Manager for the period from August 2007 to December 2008. The $270,357 was repaid by or on behalf of the Manager to the Pamrapo Service Corporation, and the Company recognized the amount of $270,357 in earnings during the fourth quarter of 2008.

with the Corporation. Recovery of any of these amounts is subject to several contingencies, including any claims or defenses put forth by any person or entity that the Bank would choose to seek recovery from, including, but not limited to, the former Manager of the Corporation. The amounts are subject to change, based on the receipt of further information. Management has determined that the item is a gain contingency and, in accordance with FASB ASC 450 “Contingencies,” has not reflected any amounts in its consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2009. If it is determined that the Corporation is in fact entitled to any of these amounts and they are in fact recovered, the amounts could be material to the Bank’s current and previously issued consolidated financial statements, and restatements of certain consolidated financial statements may be necessary.

Non-Interest Expenses

Non-interest expenses increased $2.6 million or 18.84% to $16.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2008 compared to $13.8 million for 2007. During the year ended December 31, 2008, salaries and employee benefits, net occupancy expense of premises, equipment, professional fees, loss on foreclosed real estate and other expenses increased $314,000, $92,000, $37,000, $2,028,000, $92,000 and $27,000 respectively, which more than offset a decrease in advertising expense of $12,000. The increase in professional fees was predominately due to fees paid to consultants that the Bank engaged as a result of the cease and desist order issued by the Office of Thrift Supervision (“OTS”), effective September 26, 2008.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense totaled $1.7 million, representing an effective tax rate of 41.21%, and $2.5 million, representing an effective tax rate of 36.52% during the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The decrease in 2008 resulted from a decrease in pre-tax income of $2.7 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Bank’s primary sources of funds are deposits, amortization and prepayments of loan and mortgage-backed securities principal, FHLB-NY advances, maturities of investment securities and funds provided from operations. While scheduled loan and mortgage-backed securities amortization and maturities of investment securities are a relatively predictable source of funds, deposit flows and loan and mortgage-backed securities prepayments are greatly influenced by market interest rates, economic conditions and competition.

The Bank is required to maintain sufficient liquidity to ensure its safe and sound operation by the OTS regulations. The Bank adjusts its liquidity levels in order to meet funding needs for deposit outflows, payments of real estate taxes from escrow accounts on mortgage loans, repayment of borrowings, when applicable, and loan funding commitments. The Bank also adjusts its liquidity level as appropriate to meet its asset/liability objectives. In addition, the Bank invests its excess funds in federal funds and interest-bearing deposits with the FHLB-NY, which provides liquidity to meet lending requirements.

In January 2010, the FHLB-NY imposed certain restrictions on the Bank’s credit activities. The Bank now is only able to do short term borrowings (30 days or less) and its eligibility to sell mortgage loans into the Mortgage Partnership Finance (“MPF”) Program has been suspended pending a determination by the FHLB-NY that the Bank again meets the eligibility requirements for participation in the MPF Program. The Bank’s line of credit with the FHLB-NY has not been reduced. As of January 5, 2010, borrowings must be secured by mortgage-backed securities or specific mortgage loans, rather than by mortgage-backed securities or blanket mortgage loans. As of March 25, 2010, the Company had $30.1 million of mortgage-backed security pledges in excess of amounts borrowed.

In January, the FRB-NY informed the Bank that it (i) no longer qualifies for uncollateralized daylight credit, (ii) is no longer eligible to borrow under the FRB-NY Discount Window’s primary credit program, rather requests to borrow at the Window will be considered under the secondary credit program and granted on an overnight basis, and (iii) is now required to prefund its Automated Clearing House credit originations.

The Bank’s liquidity, represented by cash and cash equivalents, is a product of its operating, investing and financing activities. Cash was generated by operating activities in each of the above periods. The primary source of cash from operating activities during each period was net income (loss), adjusted for non-cash items and working capital changes.

The primary sources of investing activities of the Bank are lending and investment in mortgage-backed securities. In addition to funding new loan production and the purchase of mortgage-backed securities through operations and financing activities, new loan production and purchases of mortgage-backed securities were also funded by principal repayments on existing loans and mortgage-backed securities.

Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. Excess liquidity is generally invested in short-term investments, such as federal funds and interest-bearing deposits. If the Bank requires funds beyond its ability to generate them internally, borrowing agreements exist with the FHLB-NY, which provide an additional source of funds. At December 31, 2009 and 2008, advances from the FHLB-NY amounted to $51.0 million and $89.5 million, respectively.

The Bank anticipates that it will have sufficient funds available to meet its current loan commitments. At December 31, 2009, the Bank had outstanding commitments to originate loans and fund unused credit lines of $18.9 million. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less, at December 31, 2009, totaled $184.9 million. Management believes that, based upon historical experience, a significant portion of such deposits will remain with the Bank. At December 31, 2009, the Bank exceeded each of the three OTS capital requirements. The Bank’s tangible, core and total risk-based capital ratios were 8.89%, 8.89% and 14.63%, respectively. The Bank was categorized as “well-capitalized” under the prompt corrective action regulations of the OTS.

Contractual Obligations

The following table sets forth our contractual obligations and commercial commitments at December 31, 2009. This does not include interest expense on the FHLB-NY advances and the certificates of deposit which the Bank expects to pay at weighted average rates of 5.02% and 2.13%, respectively. In addition, the Bank expects to make a pension plan contribution of approximately $350,000 in 2010.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In the normal course of business, the Bank enters into off-balance sheet arrangements primarily to meet the financing needs of its customers. These arrangements include commitments to originate loans and fund lines of credit secured by real estate, a large portion on which may expire without having been drawn upon. The commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Company’s consolidated statement of financial condition. The following table presents these off-balance sheet arrangements at December 31, 2009. For more information regarding these commitments, see Note 13 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Management of Interest Rate Risk

The Bank, like other financial institutions, is subject to market risk. Market risk is the type of risk that occurs when an institution suffers economic loss due to changes in the market value of various types of assets or liabilities. As a financial institution, the Bank makes a profit by accepting and managing various risks such as credit risk and interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is the Bank’s primary market risk.

The ability to maximize net interest income is largely dependent upon the achievement of a positive interest rate spread that can be sustained during fluctuations in prevailing interest rates. Interest rate sensitivity is a measure of the difference between amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities which either reprice or mature within a given period of time. The difference, or the interest rate repricing “gap,” provides an indication of the extent to which an institution’s interest rate spread will be affected by changes in interest rates. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest-rate sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest-rate sensitive liabilities, and is considered negative when the amount of interest-rate sensitive liabilities exceeds the amount of interest-rate sensitive assets. Generally, during a period of rising interest rates, a negative gap within shorter maturities would adversely affect net interest income, while a positive gap within shorter maturities would result in an increase in net interest income. During a period of falling interest rates, a negative gap within shorter maturities would result in an increase in net interest income while a positive gap within shorter maturities would result in a decrease in net interest income.

Because the Bank’s interest-bearing liabilities, which mature or reprice within short periods, exceed its interest-earning assets with similar characteristics, material and prolonged increases in interest rates generally would adversely affect net interest income, while material and prolonged decreases in interest rates generally would have a positive effect on net interest income.

The Bank’s current investment strategy is to maintain an overall securities portfolio that provides a source of liquidity and that contributes to the Bank’s overall profitability and asset mix within given quality and maturity considerations. Securities classified as available for sale provide management with the flexibility to make adjustments to the portfolio given changes in the economic or interest rate environment, to fulfill unanticipated liquidity needs, or to take advantage of alternative investment opportunities.

Net Portfolio Value

The Bank’s interest rate sensitivity is monitored by management through the use of the OTS model which estimates the change in the Bank’s net portfolio value (“NPV”) over a range of interest rate scenarios. NPV is the present value of expected cash flows from assets, liabilities, and off-balance sheet contracts. The NPV ratio, under any interest rate scenario, is defined as the NPV in that scenario divided by the market value of assets in the same scenario. The OTS produces its analysis based upon data submitted on the Bank’s quarterly Thrift Financial Reports. The following table, which sets forth the Bank’s NPV as of December 31, 2009, was calculated by the OTS:


							NPV as Percent of Portfolio Value of Assets
Change in Interest Rates In Basis Points	Amount		Net Portfolio Value Dollar Change		Percent Change		NPV Ratio		Change in Basis Points
	(Dollars in Thousands)
+300bp	$	36,583	$	-46,406	-56	%	6.68	%	-717bp
+200bp	$	52,281	$	-30,708	-37	%	9.25	%	-460bp
+100bp	$	68,456	$	-14,533	-18	%	11.75	%	-210bp
+50bp	$	75,596	$	-7,394	- 9	%	12.79	%	-106bp
0bp	$	82,989		—			13.85	%
-50bp	$	88,934	$	5,945	+7	%	14.67	%	+82bp
-100bp	$	94,787	$	11,798	+14	%	15.47	%	+162bp

Certain shortcomings are inherent in the methodology used in interest rate risk measurements. Modeling changes in NPV require the making of certain assumptions which may or may not reflect the manner in which actual yields and costs respond to changes in market interest rates. In this regard, the NPV model presented assumes that the composition of the Bank’s interest sensitive assets and liabilities existing at the beginning of a period remains constant over the period being measured and also assumes that a particular change in interest rates is reflected uniformly across the yield curve regardless of the duration to maturity or repricing of specific assets and liabilities. Accordingly, although the NPV measurements and net interest income models provide an indication of the Bank’s interest rate risk exposure at a particular point in time, such measurements are not intended to and do not provide a precise forecast of the effect of changes in market interest rates on the Bank’s net interest income and will differ from actual results.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

The consolidated financial statements and the related data presented herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars, without considering changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation.

Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all of the assets and liabilities of the Bank are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact on the Bank’s performance than the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or in the same magnitude as the prices of goods and services because such prices are affected by inflation to a larger extent than interest rates.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders

of Pamrapo Bancorp, Inc.

Bayonne, New Jersey

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial conditions of Pamrapo Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2009. The Company’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Pamrapo Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2009 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As further discussed in Note 21 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has entered into a merger agreement pursuant to which the Company will merge with and into another entity.

As further discussed in Note 24 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has stipulated and consented to two separate Cease and Desist Orders issued by the Office of Thrift Supervision.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

For the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007

Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Consolidated Financial Statement Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Pamrapo Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), its wholly owned subsidiary, Pamrapo Savings Bank, S.L.A. (the “Bank”) and the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, Pamrapo Service Corp., Inc. (the “Service Corp.”) and Pamrapo Investment Company (the “Investment Company”). The Company’s business is conducted principally through the Bank. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company has evaluated events and transactions occurring subsequent to the consolidated statement of financial condition date of December 31, 2009 for items that should be potentially recognized or disclosed in these consolidated financial statements. The evaluation was conducted through the date these financial statements were issued.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated statement of financial condition and revenues and expenses for the period then ended. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant changes relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the assessment of prepayment risks associated with mortgage-backed securities and the determination of the amount of deferred tax assets which are more likely than not to be realized. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is adequate, prepayment risks associated with mortgage-backed securities are properly recognized and all deferred tax assets are more likely than not to be recognized. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, future additions to the allowance for loan losses may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions in the market area. Additionally, assessments of prepayment risks related to mortgage-backed securities are based upon current market conditions, which are subject to frequent change. Finally, the determination of the amount of deferred tax assets more likely than not to be realized is dependent on projections of future earnings, which are subject to frequent change.

In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Bank’s allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Bank to recognize additions to the allowance for loan losses based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash and amounts due from depository institutions and interest-bearing deposits in other banks having original maturities of three months or less.

Investment and Mortgage-Backed Securities

Investments in debt securities that the Bank has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held to maturity securities and reported at amortized cost. Debt and equity securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as trading securities and reported at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses included in earnings. Debt and equity securities not classified as trading securities nor as held to maturity securities are classified as available for sale securities and reported at fair value, with unrealized holding gains or losses, net of deferred income taxes, reported in a separate component of stockholders’ equity.

Pamrapo Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

For the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007

On a quarterly basis, management makes an assessment to determine whether there have been any events or economic circumstances to indicate that a security on which there is an unrealized loss is impaired on an other-than-temporary basis. Declines in the fair value of held-to-maturity and available-for sale securities below their cost that are deemed to be other-than-temporary would be reflected in the consolidated financial statements. In estimating other-than-temporary impairment losses, management considers (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, (3) the intent and ability of the Bank to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value and (4) whether the Bank intends to sell the security or if it is more likely than not that the Bank will be required to sell the security before the recovery of its amortized cost basis.

For debt securities where the Bank has determined that an other-than-temporary impairment exists and the Bank does not intend to sell the security or it is not more likely than not that the Bank will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, the impairment is separated into the amount that is credit-related and the amount due to all other factors. The credit-related impairment is recognized in the consolidated statement of operations, and is the difference between an investment’s amortized cost basis and the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the investment’s effective interest rate. The non-credit component of impairment is recorded in other comprehensive loss. For debt securities classified as held-to-maturity, the amount of noncredit-related impairment recognized in other comprehensive loss is accreted over the remaining life of the debt security as an increase in the carrying value of the investment.

Premiums and discounts on all securities are amortized/ accreted using the interest method. Interest and dividend income on securities, which includes amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts, is recognized in the consolidated financial statements when earned. The adjusted cost basis of an identified security sold or called is used for determining security gains and losses recognized in the consolidated statements of operations.

Loans Receivable

Loans receivable are stated at unpaid principal balances, less the allowance for loan losses and net deferred loan origination fees and discounts.

The Bank defers loan origination fees and certain direct loan origination costs and amortizes/accretes such amounts as an adjustment of yield over the contractual lives of the related loans using the interest method.

The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued at the time of the loan being 120 days past due unless the credit is well secured and in the process of collection. Uncollectible interest on loans is charged off, or an allowance is established based on management’s evaluation. An allowance is established by a charge to interest income equal to all interest previously accrued, and income is subsequently recognized only to the extent that cash payments are received until, in management’s judgment, the borrower’s ability to make periodic interest and principal payments is probable, in which case the loan is returned to an accrual status.

Allowance for Loan Losses

An allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level considered adequate to absorb loan losses. Management of the Bank, in determining the allowance for loan losses, considers the risks inherent in its loan portfolio and changes in the nature and volume of its loan activities, along with the general economic and real estate market conditions.

The Bank utilizes a two tier approach: (1) identification of impaired loans and the establishment of specific loss allowances, if necessary, on such loans; and (2) establishment of general valuation allowances on the remainder of its loan portfolio. The Bank maintains a loan review system which allows for a periodic review of its loan portfolio and the early identification of potential impaired loans. Such system takes into consideration, among other things, delinquency status, size of loans, type of collateral and financial condition of the borrowers. Specific loan loss allowances are established for identified loans based on a review of such information and/or appraisals of the underlying collateral. General loan loss allowances are based upon a combination of factors including, but not limited to, actual loan loss experience, composition of loan portfolio, current economic conditions and management’s judgment.

Although management believes that adequate specific and general loan loss allowances are established, actual losses are dependent upon future events and, as such, further additions to the allowance for loan losses may be necessary. In addition, the Bank and the Company are subject to the supervision of various regulatory agencies. These agencies, as part of their examination processes, may require that additional amounts be recorded in the allowance for loan losses.

An impaired loan is evaluated based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, or as a practical expedient, at the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. A loan evaluated for impairment is deemed to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. An insignificant payment delay, which is defined as up to ninety days by the Bank, will not cause a loan to be classified as impaired. A loan is not impaired during a period of delay in payment if the Bank expects to collect all amounts due, including interest accrued at the contractual interest rate for the period of delay. Thus, a demand loan or other loan with no stated maturity is not impaired if the Bank expects to collect all amounts due, including interest accrued at the contractual interest rate, during the period the loan is outstanding. All loans identified as impaired are evaluated independently. The Bank does not aggregate such loans for evaluation purposes. Payments received on impaired loans are applied first to accrued interest receivable and then to principal.

Foreclosed Real Estate

Real estate acquired by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure is initially recorded at estimated fair value at date of acquisition, establishing a new cost basis and subsequently carried at the lower of such initially recorded amount or estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell. Costs incurred in developing or preparing properties for sale are capitalized. Expenses of holding properties and income from operating properties are recorded in operations as incurred or earned. Gains and losses from sales of such properties are recognized as incurred.

Advertising

Advertising expense is recorded when occurred.

Benefit Plans

The Company has a non-contributory defined benefit pension plan covering all eligible employees. The benefits are based on years of service and employees’ compensation. The defined benefit plan is funded in conformity with funding requirements of applicable government regulations. Prior service costs for the defined benefit plan generally are amortized over the estimated remaining service periods of employees.

Pamrapo Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

For the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007

Certain employees are covered under a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”). The SERP is an unfunded non-qualified deferred retirement plan for certain employees. A participant who retires at the age of 65 (the “Normal Retirement Age”), is entitled to an annual retirement benefit equal to 75% of his compensation reduced by his retirement plan annual benefits. Participants retiring before the Normal Retirement Age receive the same benefits reduced by a percentage based on years of service to the Company and the number of years prior to the Normal Retirement Age that participants retire.

The Company uses the corridor approach in the valuation of the defined benefit plan and SERP. The corridor approach defers all actuarial gains and losses resulting from variances between actual results and economic estimates or actuarial assumptions. For a defined benefit plan, these unrecognized gains and losses are amortized when the net gains and losses exceed 10% of the greater of the market-related value of plan assets or the projected benefit obligation at the beginning of the year. For SERP, amortization occurs when the net gains or losses exceed 10% of the accumulated SERP benefit obligation at the beginning of the year. The amount in excess of the corridor is amortized over the average remaining service period to retirement date of active plan participants or, for retired participants, the average remaining life expectancy.

The funded status of the defined benefit and SERP plans is fully recognized on the consolidated statement of financial condition. It is determined by the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the benefit obligation, with the benefit obligation represented by the projected benefit obligation for the two plans. Actuarial gains (losses) and prior service benefits (costs) which have not yet been recognized in net income (loss) are recognized as a credit (charge) to the accumulated other comprehensive loss component of stockholders’ equity. The credit (charge) to stockholders’ equity, which is reflected net of related tax effects, is subsequently recognized in net income (loss) when amortized as a component of defined benefit plans and postretirement benefit plans expense.

Premises and Equipment

Premises and equipment are comprised of land, at cost, and buildings, building improvements, leaseholds and furnishings and equipment, at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Significant renewals and betterments are charged to the property and equipment account. Maintenance and repairs are expensed in the year incurred. Rental income is netted against occupancy expense in the consolidated statements of operations.

Income Taxes

The Company, Bank, Service Corp. and Investment Company file a consolidated federal income tax return. Income taxes are allocated to the Company, Bank, Service Corp. and Investment Company based on their respective income or loss included in the consolidated income tax return. Separate state income tax returns are filed by the Company, Bank, Service Corp. and Investment Company.

Federal and state income taxes have been provided on the basis of reported income (loss). The amounts reflected on the Company’s and subsidiaries’ tax returns differ from these provisions due principally to temporary differences in the reporting of certain items for financial reporting and income tax reporting purposes.

Deferred income tax expense or benefit is determined by recognizing deferred tax assets and liabilities for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income (loss) in the years in which those

For the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007

temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in earnings in the period that includes the enactment date. The realization of deferred tax assets is assessed and a valuation allowance provided, when necessary, for that portion of the asset which is not likely to be realized. Management believes, based upon current facts, that it is more likely than not that there will be sufficient taxable income in future years to realize the deferred tax assets.

The Company follows the provisions of FASB ASC 740-10, to account for uncertain tax positions. The guidance provides clarification on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements. The guidance prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, and also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. As a result of the Company’s evaluation of the implementation of FASB ASC 740-10, no significant income tax uncertainties were identified. Therefore, the Company recognized no adjustment for unrecognized tax benefits for the year ended December 31, 2007. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The amount of interest and penalties for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 was immaterial. The tax years subject to examination by the taxing authorities are the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006.

Federal Home Loan Bank of New York Stock

Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (“FHLB”) Stock, which represents required investment in the common stock of a correspondent bank, is carried at cost as of December 31, 2009 and 2008.

Management evaluates the restricted stock for impairment in accordance with FASB ASC 310-10, Accounting by Certain Entities (Including Entities With Trade Receivables) that Lend to or Finance the Activities of Others. Management’s determination of whether these investments are impaired is based on their assessment of the ultimate recoverability of their cost rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value. The determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recoverability of their cost is influenced by criteria such as (1) the significance of the decline in net assets of the FHLB as compared to the capital stock amount for the FHLB and the length of time this situation has persisted; (2) commitments by the FHLB to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the FHLB; and (3) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, on the customer base of the FHLB.

No impairment charge was recorded in relation to the FHLB Stock in 2009 or 2008.

Interest Rate Risk

The Bank is principally engaged in the business of attracting deposits from the general public and using these deposits, together with borrowings and other funds, to invest in securities, to make loans secured by real estate and, to a lesser extent, make consumer loans. The potential for interest-rate risk exists as a result of the generally shorter duration of the Bank’s interest-sensitive liabilities compared to the generally longer duration of its interest-sensitive assets. In a rising interest rate environment, the Bank’s liabilities will reprice faster than assets, thereby reducing net interest income. For this reason, management regularly monitors the maturity structure of the Bank’s assets and liabilities in order to measure its level of interest-rate risk and to plan for future volatility.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company, under a plan approved by its stockholders in 2003, has granted stock options to certain employees. Prior to 2006, the Company accounted for options granted using the intrinsic value method. No compensation expense had been reflected in net income (loss) for the options granted as all such grants have an exercise price equal to the market price of the underlying stock at the date of grant.

The Company adopted FASB ASC 718 (SFAS No. 123(R)) on January 1, 2006 under the modified prospective method. Since all of the Company’s stock options were vested prior to 2006, the adoption of FASB ASC 718 had no impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Net Income (Loss) per Common Share

Basic net income (loss) per common share is based on the weighted average number of common shares actually outstanding. Diluted net income (loss) per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding to include the effect of outstanding stock options, if dilutive, using the treasury stock method.

Reclassification

When necessary, certain amounts for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation. The impact of these reclassifications had no impact on consolidated net income (loss) or stockholders’ equity.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The following is a summary of recently issued authoritative pronouncements that could have an impact on the accounting, reporting, and/or disclosure of the consolidated financial information of the Company.

On July 1, 2009, the FASB’s GAAP Codification became effective as the sole authoritative source of U.S. GAAP. This codification reorganizes current GAAP for non-governmental entities into a topical index to facilitate accounting research and to provide users with additional assurance that they have referenced all related literature pertaining to a given topic. Existing GAAP prior to the codification was not altered in compilation of the GAAP Codification, instead it takes thousands of individual pronouncements that currently comprise GAAP and reorganizes them into approximately 90 accounting Topics, displaying them in a consistent structure. Accounting literature included in the codification is referenced by Topic, Subtopic, Section, and Paragraph. The Paragraph level is the only level that contains substantive content. Citing particular content in the codification involves specifying the unique numeric path to the content through the Topic, Subtopic, Section, and Paragraph structure. FASB suggests that all citations begin with “FASB ASC,” where the ASC stands for Accounting Standards Codification. Changes to the ASC subsequent to June 30, 2009 are referred to as Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”). The GAAP Codification encompasses all FASB Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS), Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) statements, FASB Staff Positions (FSP), FASB Interpretations (FIN), FASB Derivative Implementation Guides (DIG), American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) Statement of Positions (SOP), Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinions and Accounting Research Bulletins (ARB’s), along with the remaining body of GAAP effective as of June 30, 2009. Financial Statements issued for all interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009 will need to reference accounting guidance embodied in the codification as opposed to referencing the previously authoritative pronouncements. The codification was in response to the June 2009 FASB issuance of SFAS No. 168, which replaces SFAS No. 162. Under the GAAP Codification, SFAS No. 168 translates to FASB ASC 105.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

For the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007

In conjunction with the issuance of FASB ASC 105, the FASB issued its first Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2009-1, “Topic 105—Generally Accepted Accounting Principles—amendments based on—Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 168—The FASB Accounting Standards Codification TM and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles,” which includes SFAS 168 in its entirety as a transition to the ASC. ASU 2009-1 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The adoption of this Update did not have an effect on the amounts reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-05, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820)—Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value.” The Update provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using a valuation technique that uses quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset, quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar liabilities when traded as assets, or that is consistent with the principles of Topic 820. The amendments in the Update also clarify that when estimating the fair value of a liability, a reporting entity is not required to include a separate input or adjustment to other inputs relating to the existence of a restriction that prevents the transfer of the liability. Additionally, the amendments in the Update clarify that both a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability at the measurement date and the quoted price for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market when no adjustments to the quoted price are required are level 1 fair value measurements.

The guidance provided by the Update is effective for the first reporting period (including interim periods) beginning after the issuance. The adoption of this Update did not have an effect on the amounts reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In September of 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-12, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent),” which allows a company to measure the fair value of an asset that has no readily determinable fair market value on the basis of the investee’s net asset value per share as provided by the investee. This allowance assumes that the investee has calculated net asset value in accordance with the GAAP measurement principles of Topic 946 as of the reporting entity’s measurement date. Examples of such investments include hedge funds, private equity funds, real estate funds and venture capital funds. The Update also provides guidance on how the investment should be classified within the fair value hierarchy based on the value for which the investment can be redeemed. The Update is effective for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this Update did not have an effect on the amounts reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-16, Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860)—Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets. This Update amends the Codification for the issuance of FASB Statement No. 166, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets-an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140.

The amendments in this Update improve financial reporting by eliminating the exceptions for qualifying special-purpose entities from the consolidation guidance and the exception that permitted sale accounting for certain mortgage securitizations when a transferor has not surrendered control over the transferred financial assets. In addition, the amendments require enhanced disclosures about the risks that a transferor continues to be exposed to because of its continuing involvement in transferred financial assets. Comparability and consistency in accounting for transferred financial assets will also be improved through clarifications of the requirements for isolation and limitations on portions of financial assets that are eligible for sale accounting.

For the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007

This Update is effective at the start of a reporting entity’s first fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2009. Early application is not permitted. The adoption of this Update is not expected to have an effect on the amounts reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-17, Consolidations (Topic 810)—Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities. This Update amends the Codification for the issuance of FASB Statement No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R).

The amendments in this Update replace the quantitative-based risks and rewards calculation for determining which reporting entity, if any, has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity with an approach focused on identifying which reporting entity has the power to direct the activities of a variable interest entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and (1) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity or (2) the right to receive benefits from the entity. An approach that is expected to be primarily qualitative will be more effective for identifying which reporting entity has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity. The amendments in this Update also require additional disclosures about a reporting entity’s involvement in variable interest entities, which will enhance the information provided to users of financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-01, Equity (Topic 505)—Accounting for Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and Cash. The amendments in this Update clarify that the stock portion of a distribution to shareholders that allows them to elect to receive cash or stock with a potential limitation on the total amount of cash that all shareholders can elect to receive in the aggregate is considered a share issuance that is reflected in earnings per share prospectively and is not a stock dividend. This Update codifies the consensus reached in EITF Issue No. 09-E, “Accounting for Stock Dividends, Including Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and Cash.”

This Update is effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009, and should be applied on a retrospective basis. The adoption of this Update did not have an effect on the amounts reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The FASB has issued ASU 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. This ASU requires some new disclosures and clarifies some existing disclosure requirements about fair value measurement as set forth in Codification Subtopic 820-10. The FASB’s objective is to improve these disclosures and, thus, increase the transparency in financial reporting. Specifically, ASU 2010-06 amends Codification Subtopic 820-10 to now require:

•

A reporting entity to disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers; and

•

In the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs, a reporting entity should present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements.

Pamrapo Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

For the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007

In addition, ASU 2010-06 clarifies the requirements of the following existing disclosures:

•

For purposes of reporting fair value measurement for each class of assets and liabilities, a reporting entity needs to use judgment in determining the appropriate classes of assets and liabilities; and

•

A reporting entity should provide disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements.

ASU 2010-06 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this Update is not expected to have an effect on the amounts reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)” (“SFAS 167”). Under FASB’s Codification at ASC 105-10-65-1-d, SFAS 167 will remain authoritative until integrated into the FASB Codification. SFAS 167 amends Interpretation 46(R) to require an enterprise to perform an analysis to determine whether the enterprise’s variable interest give it a controlling financial interest in the variable interest entity. SFAS 167 is effective for all interim and annual periods beginning after November 15, 2009. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have an effect on the amounts reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2009 the FASB issued SFAS No. 166, “Accounting for the Transfer of Financial Assets an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 140.” Under FASB’s Codification at ASC 105-10-65-1-d, SFAS 166 will remain authoritative until integrated into the FASB Codification. SFAS 166 removes the concept of a special purpose entity (SPE) from Statement 140 and removes the exception of applying FASB Interpretation 46 “Variable Interest Entities,” to Variable Interest Entities that are SPE’s. It limits the circumstances in which a transferor derecognizes a financial asset. SFAS 166 amends the requirements for the transfer of a financial asset to meet the requirements for “sale” accounting. The statement is effective for all interim and annual periods beginning after November 15, 2009. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have an effect on the amounts reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Other accounting updates that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standard-setting bodies are not expected to have a material effect on amounts reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

All mortgage-backed securities classified as available for sale are issued by U.S. government sponsored agencies and are collateralized by residential mortgages.

When the fair value of a security is below its amortized cost, and depending on the length of time the condition exists and the extent to which the fair value is below amortized cost, additional analysis is performed to determine whether another-than-temporary impairment condition exists. The analysis considers (i) whether the Bank has the intent to sell its securities prior to recovery and/or maturity, (ii) whether it is more likely than not that the Bank will have to sell its securities prior to recovery and/or maturity, and (iii) if the present value of expected cash flows is sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis. Often, the information available to conduct these assessments is limited and rapidly changing, making estimates of fair values subject to judgment. If actual information or conditions are different than estimated, the extent of the impairment of the security may be different than previously estimated, which could have a material effect on the Bank’s financial statements.

Management does not believe that any of the unrealized losses at December 31, 3009 represent an other-than-temporary impairment. The unrealized losses are on the trust-originated preferred security and mortgage-backed securities that earn interest at a fixed rate. Such losses are due to changes in market interest rates while the above investments are at a fixed rate. The Bank has the intent and ability to hold these investments for a time necessary to recover the amortized cost. At December 31, 2009 unrealized losses were on three mortgage-backed securities and one trust-originated preferred security.

When the fair value of a security is below its amortized cost, and depending on the length of time the condition exists and the extent to which the fair value is below amortized cost, additional analysis is performed to determine whether an other-than-temporary impairment condition exists. The analysis considers (i) whether the Bank has the intent to sell its securities prior to recovery and/or maturity, (ii) whether it is more likely than not that the Bank will have to sell its securities prior to recovery and/or maturity, and (iii) if the present value of expected cash flows is sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis. Often, the information available to conduct these assessments is limited and rapidly changing, making estimates of fair values subject to judgment. If actual information or conditions are different than estimated, the extent of the impairment of the security may be different than previously estimated, which could have a material effect on the Bank’s financial statements.

Management does not believe that the unrealized loss at December 31, 2009 represents an other-than-temporary impairment. The unrealized loss is on a subordinated note that earns interest at a fixed rate. Such unrealized loss is due to changes in market interest rates while the above investments are at a fixed rate. The Bank has the intent and ability to hold these investments for a time necessary to recover the amortized cost. At December 31, 2009 the unrealized loss included one subordinated note.

There were no sales of investment securities held to maturity during the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007.

All mortgage-backed securities classified as held to maturity are issued by U.S. government sponsored agencies and are collateralized by residential mortgages.

When the fair value of a security is below its amortized cost, and depending on the length of time the condition exists and the extent to which the fair value is below amortized cost, additional analysis is performed to determine whether an other-than-temporary impairment condition exists. The analysis considers (i) whether the Bank has the intent to sell its securities prior to recovery and/or maturity, (ii) whether it is more likely than not that the Bank will have to sell its securities prior to recovery and/or maturity, and (iii) if the present value of expected cash flows is sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis. Often, the information available to conduct these assessments is limited and rapidly changing, making estimates of fair values subject to judgment. If actual information or conditions are different than estimated, the extent of the impairment of the security may be different than previously estimated, which could have a material effect on the Bank’s financial statements.

Management does not believe that any of the unrealized losses at December 31, 2009 and 2008, represent an other-than-temporary impairment. The unrealized losses on the mortgage-backed securities portfolio are due primarily to increases in market interest rates. The securities with unrealized losses are primarily at fixed interest rates. The Bank has the intent and ability to hold these securities for a time necessary to recover the amortized cost. At December 31, 2009 the unrealized losses included one Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation security, and one collateralized mortgage obligation.

There were no sales of mortgage-backed securities held to maturity during the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007.

At December 31, 2009 and 2008, all the advances were fixed interest rate advances.

At December 31, 2009 and 2008, the advances were secured by pledges of the Bank’s investment in the capital stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (the “FHLB-NY”) totaling $3,395,900 and $5,160,100, respectively, and a blanket assignment of the Bank’s unpledged qualifying mortgage loans, mortgage-backed securities and investment securities portfolios.

Effective January 5, 2010, the FHLB-NY imposed certain credit restrictions on the Bank which limits borrowings from the FHLB to a maximum maturity of 30 days. The Company continues to have the revolving overnight line of credit available to the extent collateral is provided by the Company.

Note 10—Regulatory Matters

The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Bank. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

Pamrapo Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

For the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of Total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier 1 capital to adjusted total assets (as defined). The following tables present a reconciliation of capital per GAAP and regulatory capital and information as to the Bank’s capital levels at the dates presented:

At December 31, 2009 and 2008, unrecognized net loss of $4,057,284 and $5,663,895, respectively, and unrecognized prior service cost of $0 and $50,475, respectively, were included in accumulated other comprehensive loss in accordance with SFAS No. 158. For the year ended December 31, 2010, $312,351 of net loss and no prior service cost are expected to be recognized in pension expense.

Plan Assets

For 2009 and 2008, the Plan’s assets realized an annual return (loss) of 9.3% and of (26.3%) respectively. The weighted-average allocations by asset category are as follows:


	December 31,
	2009		2008
Certificates of deposit	39	%	46	%
Mutual fund	7	%	7	%
Fixed income securities, money market and other	9	%	5	%
Equity securities	45	%	42	%

	100	%	100	%

The primary long-term objective for the Plan is to maintain assets at a level that will sufficiently cover future beneficiary obligations. The Plan will be structured to include a volatility reducing component (the fixed income commitment) and a growth component (the equity commitment).

To achieve the Plan Sponsor’s long-term investment objectives, the Trustee will invest the assets of the Plan in a diversified combination of asset classes, investment strategies, and pooled vehicles. The asset allocation guidelines in the table below reflect the Bank’s risk tolerance and long-term objectives for the Plan. These parameters will be reviewed on a regular basis and subject to change following discussions between the Bank and the Trustee.

Initially, the following asset allocation targets and ranges will guide the Trustee in structuring the overall allocation in the Plan’s investment portfolio. The Bank or the Trustee may amend these allocations to reflect the

Pamrapo Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

For the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007

most appropriate standards consistent with changing circumstances. Any such fundamental amendments in strategy will be discussed between the Bank and the Trustee prior to implementation.

Asset Allocation Parameters by Asset Class


	Minimum		Target		Maximum
Equity
Large-Cap U.S.			26	%
Mid/Small-Cap U.S.			12	%
Non-U.S.			12	%

Total—Equity	40	%	50	%	60	%

Fixed Income
Certificates of Deposit			25	%
Long Duration			23	%
Money Market			2	%

Total—Fixed Income	40	%	50	%	60	%

The parameters for each asset class provide the Trustee with the latitude for managing the Plan within a minimum and maximum range. The Trustee will have full discretion to buy, sell, invest and reinvest in these asset segments based on these guidelines which includes allowing the underlying investments to fluctuate within the stated policy ranges. The Plan will maintain a cash equivalents component (not to exceed 3% under normal circumstances) within the fixed income allocation for liquidity purposes.

The Trustee will monitor the actual asset segment exposures of the Plan on a regular basis and, periodically, may adjust the asset allocation within the ranges set forth above as it deems appropriate. Periodic reallocations of assets will be based on the Trustee’s perception of the changing risk/return opportunities of the respective asset classes.

The long-term rate of return on assets assumption is set based on historical returns earned by equities and fixed income securities, adjusted to reflect expectations of future returns as applied to the Plan’s actual target allocation of asset classes. Equities and fixed income securities are assumed to earn real rates of return in the ranges of 5.0% to 9.0% and 2.0% to 6.0%, respectively. Additionally, the long-term inflation rate is projected to be 3%. When these overall return expectations are applied to a typical plan’s target allocation, the result is an expected return of 7% to 11%.

Equity securities include Pamrapo Bancorp, Inc. common stock in the amounts of $158,000 (3.10% of total plan assets) and $369,000 (7.36% of total plan assets) at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Note 12—Income Taxes

The Bank qualifies as a savings institution under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and was therefore, prior to January 1, 1996, permitted to deduct from taxable income an allowance for bad debts based upon eight percent of taxable income before such deduction, less certain adjustments. Retained earnings at December 31, 2009 and 2008, include approximately $6.9 million of such bad debt, which, in accordance with FASB ACS 740 “Accounting for Income Taxes,” is considered a permanent difference between the book and income tax basis of loans receivable, and for which income taxes have not been provided.

If such amount is used for purposes other than for bad debt losses, including distributions in liquidation, it will be subject to income tax at the then current rate.

The tax effects of existing temporary differences which give rise to significant portions of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are as follows:

Note 13—Commitments and Contingencies

The Bank is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business primarily to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to originate loans and fund lines of credit secured by real estate. The commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated statement of financial condition. The Bank’s exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.

Commitments to originate loans are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank, upon extension of credit is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but primarily includes residential real estate and income-producing commercial properties.

The Bank had the following off-balance sheet arrangements at December 31, 2009 and 2008:


	December 31,
	2009		2008
Commitments to originate loans	$	3,655,000	$	5,353,000

Unused lines of credit	$	15,199,000	$	11,599,000

Letters of credit	$	1,559,000	$	1,796,000

At December 31, 2009, the outstanding commitments to originate fixed rate loans were $3,605,000 with interest rates ranging from 5.25% to 6.75%. There was one outstanding commitment to originate an adjustable rate loan for $50,000 with an initial interest rate of 4.00%. All commitments are due to expire within ninety days.

At December 31, 2009, undisbursed funds from approved lines of credit under a homeowners’ equity and a commercial equity lending program amounted to approximately $9,890,000 and $5,309,000, respectively. Unless they are specifically cancelled by notice from the Bank, these funds represent firm commitments available to the respective borrowers on demand. The interest rates charged for any month on funds disbursed under these programs range from 0% to 3.00% above the prime rate.

Rental expenses related to the occupancy of premises totaled $561,000, $585,000, and $468,000 for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

In connection with a government investigation regarding the Bank’s anti-money laundering and Bank Secrecy Act compliance, the Company has accrued $5 million which is included in other liabilities on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition as of December 31, 2009. For a more detailed description of this investigation see Note 23.

The Company, Bank, Service Corp., and Investment Company are parties to litigation which arises primarily in the ordinary course of business.

For financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk (primarily loan commitments), the carrying value (deferred loan fees and costs) and the fair value are not deemed material.

The fair value estimates are made at a discrete point in time based on relevant market information and information about the financial instruments. Fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates. Further, the foregoing estimates may not reflect the actual amount that could be realized if all or substantially all of the financial instruments were offered for sale.

In addition, the fair value estimates were based on existing on-and-off balance sheet financial instruments without attempting to value anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments. Other significant assets and liabilities that are not considered financial assets and liabilities include mortgage servicing rights, premises and equipment and advances from borrowers for taxes and insurance. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in any of the estimates.

Finally, reasonable comparability between entities may not be likely due to the wide range of permitted valuation techniques and numerous estimates which must be made given the absence of active secondary markets for many of the financial instruments. This lack of uniform valuation methodologies introduces a greater degree of subjectivity to these estimated fair values.

Disclosure About Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used in estimating the fair value of financial instruments:

Cash and cash equivalents and interest receivable and payable: The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements for cash and cash equivalents and interest receivable and payable approximate their fair values.

Securities: The fair value of securities available for sale (carried at fair value) and held to maturity (carried at amortized cost) are determined by obtaining quoted market prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1), or matrix pricing (Level 2), which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted market prices for the specific securities, but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted prices. For certain securities which are not traded in active markets are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations are adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or nontransferability, and such adjustments are generally based on available market evidence (Level 3). In the absence of such evidence, management’s best estimate is used. Management’s best estimate consists of both internal and external support on certain Level 3 investments. Internal cash flow models using a present value formula that includes assumptions market participants would use along with indicative exit pricing obtained from broker/dealers (where available) were used to support fair values of certain Level 3 investments.

FHLB-NY stock: The estimated fair value of the Bank’s investment in FHLB-NY stock is deemed equal to its carrying value, which represents the price at which it may be redeemed.

Loans receivable (carried at cost): The fair values of loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using market rates at the balance sheet date that reflect the credit and interest rate-risk inherent in the loans. Projected future cash flows are calculated based upon contractual maturity or call dates, projected repayments and prepayments of principal. Generally, for variable rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change to credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values.

Deposit liabilities (carried at cost): The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g., interest and noninterest checking, passbook savings and money market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered in the market on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.

Advances from Federal Home Loan Bank of New York: Fair value is estimated using rates currently offered for liabilities of similar remaining maturities, or when available, quoted market prices.

Commitments to extend credit: The fair value of commitments is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. For fixed-rate loan commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates.

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted FASB ASC 820-10 which addresses aspects of the expanding application of fair value accounting.

FASB ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation methods used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for

Pamrapo Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

For the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007

identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under FASB ASC 820 are as follows:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e. supported with little or no market activity).

An asset or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. For assets measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis, the Company’s fair value measurements by level within the fair value hierarchy used at December 31, 2009 and 2008 are as follows:


Description			(Level 1) Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets		(Level 2) Significant Other Observable Inputs		(Level 3) Significant Unobservable Inputs
December 31, 2009	(In Thousands)
Recurring:
Securities available for sale	$	712	$	—	$	712	$	—
Non-recurring:
Impaired loans		7,170		—				7,170
Foreclosed assets		384		—				384

	$	8,266	$	—	$	712	$	7,554

Foreclosed assets		426		—				426

Total	$	2,698	$	—	$	771	$	1,927

The following valuation techniques were used to measure fair value of assets in the table above not previously disclosed.

Impaired loans —Loans included in the above table are those that are accounted for under FASB ASC 310-10-35, in which the Company has measured impairment generally based on the fair value of the loan’s collateral. Fair value is generally determined based upon independent third-party appraisals of the properties, or discounted cash flows based upon the expected proceeds. These assets are included as Level 3 fair values, based

Pamrapo Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

For the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007

upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. The fair value consists of the loan balances less valuation allowance as determined under FASB ASC 310-10-35. The fair value consists of loan balances of $9,472,000, less valuation allowances of $2,302,000, at December 31, 2009 and $2,587,000, less valuation allowances of $1,086,000, at December 31, 2008. Additional provisions for loan losses of $1,217,000 and $405,000 were recorded on these impaired loans during the years ending December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Foreclosed assets —Fair value of foreclosed assets was based on independent third party appraisals of the properties. These values were identified based on the sales prices of similar properties in the proximate vicinity. Foreclosed assets were written down by $43,000 and $70,000, during the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Fort Lee branch were approximately $14.5 million. The purchase price for the assets of the branch, which was offset against the amount owed to NewBank for assuming the branch’s deposits, was $500,000. The Bank recorded a gain of approximately $492,000 as a result of the sale.

Note 20—Stock Repurchase Program

In the fourth quarter of 2008, Pamrapo Bancorp, Inc. repurchased 40,000 shares under its previous share repurchase program that was announced on August 22, 2000, at an average price of $9.00, leaving only 1,465 shares remaining that may be repurchased under that program as of December 31, 2009. Pamrapo Bancorp, Inc. announced on February 3, 2009 that its Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up to 5% of its outstanding common stock, or approximately 246,700 shares.

Note 21—Merger Agreement

On June 29, 2009, the Company and BCB Bancorp, Inc., a New Jersey corporation (“BCB”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which Pamrapo will merge with and into BCB, with BCB as the surviving corporation. The Bank and BCB Community Bank, a New Jersey-chartered bank and a wholly-owned subsidiary of BCB (“BCB Bank”), will also enter into a plan of bank merger that provides for the merger of the Bank with and into BCB Bank, with BCB Bank as the surviving institution. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, shareholders of Pamrapo will receive 1.0 share of BCB common stock for each share of the Company’s common stock. In addition, all outstanding unexercised options to purchase the Company’s common stock will be converted into options to purchase BCB common stock.

If the Merger Agreement is terminated by either the Company or BCB due to the following circumstances:

•

after recommending that stockholders adopt the Merger Agreement in the joint proxy statement/prospectus, the board of directors of either party withdraws, modifies or qualifies its recommendation in a manner adverse to the other party, or either party fails to call, give proper notice of, convene and hold its special meeting;

•

the acceptance by either party of a superior proposal that the other party decides not to match;

•

subject to further conditions specified in the Merger Agreement with respect to a control transaction (as such term is defined in the Merger Agreement) involving either party and a person or entity included in a disclosure schedule to the Merger Agreement, the failure by either party to obtain the required vote of its stockholders; or

•

subject to further conditions specified in the Merger Agreement with respect to a control transaction (as such term is defined in the Merger Agreement) involving either party and a person or entity included in a disclosure schedule to the Merger Agreement, a material breach by either party of its representations, warranties or covenants in the Merger Agreement, which breach is not cured within the applicable time,

Note 23—Subsequent Events

The Bank was informed on January 5, 2010 by the FHLB-NY about its decision to impose certain restrictions on the Bank’s credit activities. The Bank now is only able to do short term borrowings (30 days or less) and its eligibility to sell mortgage loans into the Mortgage Partnership Finance (“MPF”) Program has been suspended pending a determination by the FHLBNY that the Bank again meets the eligibility requirements for participation in the MPF Program. The Bank’s line of credit with the FHLB-NY has not been reduced.

The Bank also was informed by the FRB-NY on January 8, 2010 that the Bank (i) no longer qualifies for uncollateralized daylight credit, (ii) is no longer eligible to borrow under the FRB-NY Discount Window’s primary credit program, rather requests to borrow at the Window will be considered under the secondary credit program and granted on an overnight basis, and (iii) is now required to prefund its Automated Clearing House credit originations.

On March 29, 2010, the Bank agreed to a consent order and payment of a civil money penalty of $5 million assessed concurrently by the OTS relating to the Bank’s BSA/AML compliance controls. The penalty does not require a separate payment to the OTS or United States from the amount forfeited pursuant to the agreement with the United States. The Bank has not yet entered into a consent order with the FinCEN.

Note 24—Regulatory Update

The Bank is subject to a range of bank regulatory compliance obligations. In connection with a routine compliance examination by the Office of Thrift Supervision (“OTS”), completed on June 30, 2008, certain deficiencies were identified. The Bank has and continues to take steps to remediate these deficiencies and to strengthen the Bank’s overall compliance programs. The Bank agreed to a cease and desist order (the “2008 Order”) issued by the OTS on September 26, 2008 as a result of issues relating to the Bank’s compliance with certain laws and regulations, including the Bank Secrecy Act and Anti-Money Laundering (“BSA/AML”). The 2008 Order did not identify or relate to any issues regarding the safety and soundness of the Bank.

The 2008 Order requires the Bank to strengthen its BSA/AML Program, to strengthen its Compliance Maintenance Program and internal controls related to those matters, and to take certain other actions identified by the OTS in the 2008 Order. The Bank has implemented initiatives to enhance, among other things, its BSA/AML Program and its Compliance Management Program in accordance with the requirements of the 2008 Order.

On January 22, 2010, the Company announced that the Bank, stipulated and consented to a Cease and Desist Order (the “Order”) issued by the Office of Thrift Supervision (the “OTS”). The Order became effective on January 21, 2010. The previously disclosed Cease and Desist Order issued by the OTS and consented to by the Bank on September 26, 2008 remains in effect.

The Order was issued as a result of matters relating to the Bank’s compliance with certain laws and regulations, and deficiencies in its operations and management. The Order requires the Bank to prepare and submit to the OTS an updated three-year business plan for calendar years 2010 to 2012, and to prepare and submit to the OTS a management plan. The Order also requires the Bank to appoint at least three (3) new independent members to the Bank’s board of directors in the event that the sale or merger of the Bank is not completed by March 31, 2010. The Bank, pursuant to the Order, shall not increase its total assets during any quarter in excess of an amount equal to net interest credited on deposit liabilities during the prior quarter without the prior permission of the OTS. The Order also requires the Bank to maintain adequate and effective internal controls and corporate governance policies, procedures and practices, including an internal audit program, an independent compliance oversight program, and an effective internal loan review program and to take certain other actions identified by the OTS in the Order. The Bank has already begun to implement several initiatives to enhance, among other things, its management and corporate governance in accordance with the requirements of the Order.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

As previously disclosed on Form 8-K filed by the Company on October 1, 2009, on October 1, 2009, Beard Miller Company LLP (“Beard Miller”), an independent registered public accounting firm and the independent auditor of the Company, was combined with ParenteBeard, LLC (“ParenteBeard”) in a transaction pursuant to which Beard Miller combined its operations with ParenteBeard and certain of the professional staff and partners of Beard Miller joined ParenteBeard either as employees or partners of ParenteBeard. On October 1, 2009, Beard Miller resigned as the auditors of the Company and ParenteBeard was engaged as the Company’s independent auditor, with the approval of the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors.

During the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, and during the interim period from January 1, 2009 through October 1, 2009, there were no disagreements with Beard Miller on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Beard Miller would have caused it to make reference to such disagreement in its report.

Item 9A(T). Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Interim Chief Executive Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. The purpose of these controls and procedures is to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in its Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the applicable time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms. Based on the evaluation, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Interim Chief Executive Officer concluded that, because of a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as discussed in Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2009. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

There are inherent limitations on the effectiveness of any systems of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.

101

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

March 31, 2010

Board of Directors and Shareholders of Pamrapo Bancorp, Inc.:

The management of Pamrapo Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and board of directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements.

All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009. In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework. Based on our assessment we believe that, as of December 31, 2009, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on those criteria because management has identified the following material weakness:

Pamrapo Service Corporation —The controls relating to fees and commissions from sale of financial products payable to Pamrapo Service Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Bank, were inadequate. In August 2008, management became aware that certain commission payments from a third-party broker, which were payable to Pamrapo Service Corporation, as required by its policies and procedures, were being paid directly to the manager of Pamrapo Service Corporation. The direct payments to the manager were made pursuant to a letter between a third-party broker and the president of Pamrapo Service Corporation. These direct payments constituted a change in commission structure, which was made without the approval of the board of directors of Pamrapo Service Corporation, as required by its policies and procedures. Following an internal inquiry, the Board of Directors of the Bank was informed of the matter in January 2009. Management, under the oversight of the joint Audit Committee of the Company and the Bank, has taken and is continuing to take actions to remediate this material weakness.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s reporting in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The Company has taken and is continuing to take actions to remediate its material weakness in internal control over financial reporting as described further below.

Remediation of Material Weakness

In February 2009, the Company and the Bank took the following actions to remediate the weakness in internal control over financial reporting discussed above:

•

The manager of Pamrapo Service Corporation was terminated and any signing authority he may have had on behalf of Pamrapo Service Corporation was withdrawn.

•

The third-party broker was instructed that any further commissions to the manager of Pamrapo Service Corporation earned prior to his termination date that have not yet been paid should be placed in escrow.

•

An independent consultant was engaged to conduct a forensic audit and to review the business records of Pamrapo Service Corporation. Depending on the outcome of this audit, the independent auditor may provide recommendations regarding procedures and safeguards to be implemented on a going forward basis.

The Company will continue to evaluate the effectiveness of the remedial measures and the actions taken to date as summarized above with the intent to fully correct the weakness in internal control over financial reporting.

Pension Benefits in Fiscal 2009

Pension Plan

The Bank maintains the Pamrapo Savings Bank, S.L.A. Pension Plan (the “Pension Plan”), which is a defined benefit pension plan, for the benefit of salaried employees employed by the Bank who have attained age 21 and completed one thousand hours of service during the plan year or the 12 month period following the commencement of the employee’s employment. A participant’s right to benefits under the Pension Plan is fully vested at age 65 (the normal retirement age). The annual normal retirement benefit is equal to the sum of (i) 1.1% of the participant’s average annual earnings not in excess of his or her covered compensation, multiplied by the participant’s credited service and (ii) 1.5% of the participant’s average annual earnings in excess of his or her covered compensation, multiplied by the participant’s credited service. Under the Pension Plan’s funding method, the actuarial present value

108

of projected benefits of each individual is allocated on a level basis over the expected future earnings period through the assumed retirement date.

Mr. Campbell retired effective February 13, 2009 and, as a result, is entitled under the Pension Plan to either a single lump sum payment of approximately $2,838,190 or one of the following actuarially equivalent monthly benefits: (i) straight life annuity payments of approximately $22,363 beginning on retirement; (ii) joint and survivor annuity payments of approximately $19,299, $18,047 or $16,951, depending on the election; or (iii) period certain and life payments of approximately $21,267, $18,903 or $16,504, depending on the election. Mr. Campbell has elected to receive the 75% joint and survivor annuity payment which is $18,047 per month.

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan

The Bank has a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”) for the benefit of key employees of the Bank. This plan is intended to constitute a non-qualified, deferred retirement plan. Persons eligible to participate are designated by the Board of Directors from time to time and upon terms and conditions as the Board of Directors shall agree upon. A participant who retires at age 65 (the “Normal Retirement Age”) is entitled to an annual retirement benefit equal to seventy-five percent (75%) of his compensation, at the effective date of retirement, reduced by his Pension Plan annual benefit plus an amount equal to any reduction in Company contributions on behalf of the participant resulting from limitations mandated by the Code. Participants retiring before the Normal Retirement Age will receive the same benefits reduced by a percentage based on years of service to the Bank and the number of years prior to the Normal Retirement Age that the participant retires. If, after commencement of benefits, it is determined that any participant in the SERP has committed an act or acts of fraud, embezzlement of proven dishonesty, the participant’s benefits shall be terminated.

In 1997, the SERP was amended so that should Mr. Campbell receive benefits under the SERP, such benefits would be payable to him for a period of fifteen (15) years certain. Mr. Campbell retired effective February 13, 2009 and, as a result, he or, in the event of his death, his beneficiary is entitled to an annual payment of approximately $31,647, pursuant to the SERP, beginning on March 1, 2009 until the year 2024. This amount is based on Mr. Campbell’s annual retirement benefit, pursuant to the SERP, in the amount of $300,000 reduced by the amount of his Pension Plan annual benefit.

Change in Control Agreement

On October 23, 2007, the Company entered into an amended and restated change in control agreement with Kenneth D. Walter, Chief Financial Officer, Vice-President and Treasurer, and Interim President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company (“Change in Control Agreement”). The Change in Control Agreement amends and restates the change in control agreement by and between the Company and Mr. Walter dated January 1, 2002. The Change in Control Agreement is for a term of 36 full calendar months, which term is extended for one day each day until either the board of directors or Mr. Walter elects not to extend the term by providing written notice, in which case the term of the Change in Control Agreement will end on the third anniversary of the date of such notice.

Mr. Walter’s Change in Control Agreement provides that if there is a change in control of the Company or the Bank, as defined in the Change in Control Agreement, Mr. Walter, or in the event of his subsequent death his beneficiary, as the case may be, will be entitled to receive a payment in an amount equal to three times his respective average annual compensation for the three previous years of his employment with the Company and the Bank. Certain insurance coverage maintained by the Bank at the time of any such termination would be continued for a three-year period. If a change in control were to occur, based on his current annual compensation, the amount payable to Mr. Walter would be approximately $579,176. As noted above, in such event, Mr. Walter would also be entitled to a gross-up payment to cover applicable excise taxes if any of the termination benefits were considered “excess parachute payments” under Section 280G and 4999 of the Code, such that the net amount retained by Mr. Walter after deduction of the excise and other applicable taxes would be equal to the

109

amount of benefits due to Mr. Walter under the Change in Control Agreement. Based on his current annual compensation, Mr. Walter would receive a gross up payment of approximately $182,062. The completion of the Merger with BCB will constitute a change in control of the Company. Mr. Walter has agreed to terminate the Change in Control Agreement and waive the right to receive any benefits thereunder as consideration for entering into an employment agreement and executive agreement with BCB Bank and BCB, respectively, following the completion of the Merger, in accordance with a waiver and termination agreement entered into with BCB, the Company and the Bank, at the time of execution of the Merger Agreement.

Directors’ Compensation

Directors’ Fees. The Company is the parent company of the Bank. It is responsible for establishing and paying the fees to the directors of the Company and Bank. During fiscal year 2009, directors of the Bank received an annual retainer of $20,000. Directors of the Company received $500 for each Board of Directors meeting of the Company attended. Directors of the Bank received $650 for each Board meeting attended and $550 for each committee meeting attended, except for the Chairman of the Board, who received $750 for each Board meeting attended and $650 for each committee meeting attended. The Chairman of the Audit Committee received $1,000 for each meeting attended and the members of the Audit Committee received $650 for each Audit Committee meeting attended. Directors who are also full time employees of the Bank receive no fees for attending meetings or other compensation in their capacity as directors.

Massarelli and Morecraft, who participate and who participated, respectively, in inspections made in the course of the loan application process of the Bank, are and were, respectively compensated $150 for every inspection made in Bayonne, New Jersey and $250 for every inspection made outside of the Bayonne area, plus a mileage allowance. Mr. Massarelli received $28,900 and Mr. Morecraft received $25,000 for inspections during fiscal year 2009.

Directors’ Consultation and Retirement Plan. The Pamrapo Savings Bank, S.L.A. Directors’ Consultation and Retirement Plan (the “Retirement Plan”) was amended and restated on December 16, 2008. Under the amended and restated Retirement Plan, a director who is not an officer or employee of the Bank and who has served as a director for at least ten years will be eligible, upon retirement, to receive $13,900 annually for a period of five years. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of death of the retired director, payments will cease immediately. In the event of a change in control of the Bank, as defined in Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the regulations promulgated thereunder, each retired director that is a participant under the Retirement Plan will receive a single lump sum payment of $13,900 within seven (7) days following the change in control.

All audit, audit-related, tax and other non-audit services were pre-approved by the Audit Committee, which concluded that the provision of such services by ParenteBeard, LLC was compatible with the maintenance of that firm’s independence in the conduct of its auditing functions.

The Audit Committee charter requires that the Audit Committee pre-approve all audit and non-audit engagement fees, and terms and services in a manner consistent with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. On an ongoing basis, management communicates specific projects and categories of services for which advance approval of the Audit Committee is required. The Audit Committee reviews these requests and advises management and the independent auditors if the Audit Committee pre-approves the engagement of the independent auditors for such projects and services. On a periodic basis, the independent auditors report to the Audit Committee the actual spending for such projects and services compared to the approved amounts. The Audit Committee may delegate the authority to grant any pre-approvals to one or more members of the Audit Committee, provided that such member reports any pre-approvals to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Audit Committee has delegated pre-approval authority to Patrick D. Conaghan, the Chairman of the Audit Committee.
