review it carefully at your earliest opportunity and let me know if you have any questions or concerns, or a different recollection of anything discussed. If you accept our offer, please sign the last page of this letter, retain a copy of the entire
letter for your own records, and return the original with your signature to me. Please also bear in mind that this offer remains contingent upon our satisfaction with the results of the background check. </P>

from me, as President and Chief Executive Officer. You will be expected to timely and satisfactorily perform the duties customarily performed by a CFO. Your precise duties may be changed, extended or curtailed, from time to time at my discretion or
that of the Board of Directors (&#147;Board&#148;); provided, however, that no material changes will be made without first consulting with you. As a member of executive leadership, you will be required to devote your entire working time, effort and
skill to the Bank&#146;s business and affairs; to faithfully and diligently serve the Bank&#146;s interests; and to not engage in any business or employment activity that is not on the Bank&#146;s behalf (whether or not pursued for gain or profit),

Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars and No Cents ($375,000.00). Your annual salary will be reviewed at least annually as part of the Bank&#146;s regular compensation review process and may be adjusted at the Bank&#146;s discretion. </P>

currently provides a target opportunity for an annual incentive in an amount equal to up to forty percent (40%) of your annual salary. The annual incentive that is earned for calendar year 2018 shall be determined based on the base salary actually
paid to you in 2018. The determinations whether, and in what amounts, to award this form of annual incentive are made at the Bank&#146;s discretion or as otherwise provided in the governing plan document. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">One-Time</FONT> Signing and Relocation Bonus: </B>You will be provided a
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">one-time</FONT> signing and relocation bonus in the gross sum of One Hundred Thousand Dollars and No Cents ($100,000.00). This sum will be subject to regular payroll deductions and withholding, per applicable law,
and the Bank&#146;s customary payroll practices. It is provided on the expectation, and condition, that you successfully complete at least two (2)&nbsp;years of continuous employment with the Bank. Consequently, you understand and agree that in the
event that, prior to successful completion of the referenced two (2)-year period, your employment is terminated for cause, or you resign, the signing and relocation bonus is subject to reimbursement on a straight-line prorated basis. This means, for
example, that if you resign after successful completion of only twelve (12)&nbsp;months of continuous employment, which is fifty percent (50%) of the two (2)-year obligation, you shall be obligated to repay the Bank Fifty Thousand Dollars and No
Cents ($50,000.00), which represents fifty percent (50%) of the signing and relocation bonus. For purposes of this repayment obligation, &#147;cause&#148; is determined at the Bank&#146;s discretion and includes, by way of example and without
limitation, (i)&nbsp;any act of dishonesty, whether by affirmative misrepresentation, omission, or other means; (ii)&nbsp;any act or omission that causes, or reasonably could cause, harm to the Banks&#146; standing, reputation and/or goodwill;
(iii)&nbsp;violation of the Bank&#146;s policies, now in effect or hereafter amended, regarding ethics, conflicts of interest, governmental reporting, regulatory oversight and/or equal employment opportunity (including its policies prohibiting
harassment, discrimination and retaliation); (iv) conviction of, or plea of nolo contendere to, a felony, or to any crime involving violence (actual or threatened), fraud, embezzlement or any other act of moral turpitude; (v)&nbsp;unauthorized or
improper use or disclosure of any confidential information or trade secrets of the Bank and/or its business partners, customers, and/or officers or employees; (vi)&nbsp;breach of any obligation under any written agreement or covenant with the Bank,
including any set forth in this offer letter/agreement; and/or (vi)&nbsp;failure or refusal to discharge job duties or responsibilities in a consistently timely and professional manner, provided that the failure or refusal continues or recurs after
you have been provided written notice and a reasonable opportunity to cure, which shall not be less than thirty (30)&nbsp;days. Repayment shall become immediately due and payable upon the effective date of your employment termination or resignation.
Any portion of the required repayment that has not been received by the Bank within thirty (30)&nbsp;calendar days after the effective date of termination or resignation, as applicable, shall then begin to bear interest at six percent (6%) per annum
until the required refund and such interest has been paid in full. Upon the effective date of termination or resignation, as applicable, or any time thereafter, the Bank may apply to the sum or outstanding balance of the repayment obligation any
amounts otherwise payable to you in any form, including, without limitation, as earned salary and/or bonuses, paid vacation and/or severance, until the required repayment and such interest has been paid in full. By signing below and accepting this
offer of employment, you agree that the Bank may, and you hereby authorize it to, deduct from your paycheck(s), including without limitation your final paycheck upon separation of employment, any amounts owed under this provision. </P>

that may cause actual results to differ materially and adversely. In addition to discussions about risks and uncertainties set forth from time to time in Columbia&#146;s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, available at the
SEC&#146;s website at&nbsp;www.sec.gov&nbsp;and the Company&#146;s website at&nbsp;www.columbiabank.com, including the &#147;Risk Factors,&#148; &#147;Business&#148; and &#147;Management&#146;s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations&#148; sections of our annual reports on Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">10-K</FONT> and quarterly reports on Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">10-Q,</FONT> (as applicable), factors that may cause actual results to
differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements include, among others, the following: (1)&nbsp;local, national and international economic conditions may be less favorable than expected or have a more direct and
pronounced effect on Columbia than expected and adversely affect Columbia&#146;s ability to continue its internal growth at historical rates and maintain the quality of its earning assets; (2)&nbsp;changes in interest rates could significantly
reduce net interest income and negatively affect funding sources; (3)&nbsp;projected business increases following strategic expansion or opening or acquiring new branches may be lower than expected; (4)&nbsp;costs or difficulties related to the
integration of acquisitions may be greater than expected; (5)&nbsp;competitive pressure among financial institutions may increase significantly; and (6)&nbsp;legislation or regulatory requirements or changes may adversely affect the businesses in
which Columbia is engaged. We believe the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are reasonable, based on information available to us on the date hereof. However, given the described uncertainties and risks, we cannot guarantee our
future performance or results of operations and you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements which speak only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as
a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by the federal securities laws. The factors noted above and the risks and uncertainties described in our SEC filings should be considered when reading any forward-looking
statements in this release. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Investor Relations Contact:</B><B></B></P>
