</TABLE> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Dear Blue Hills Bancorp, Inc. Stockholders and Independent Bank Corp. Shareholders: </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We are pleased to report that the Boards of Directors of Blue Hills Bancorp, Inc. (&#147;BHB&#148;) and Independent Bank Corp.
(&#147;Independent&#148;) have approved an Agreement and Plan of Merger, which is referred to as the merger agreement. Under the merger agreement, BHB will merge with and into Independent, with Independent as the surviving company in the merger.
Independent and BHB cannot complete the merger transaction without the approval of both Independent shareholders and BHB stockholders. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">BHB will be holding a special meeting of its common stockholders to vote on certain matters in connection with the merger and Independent will
be holding a special meeting of its common shareholders to vote on certain matters in connection with the merger. Holders of shares of BHB common stock will vote at a special meeting of BHB stockholders to be held on [&#9679;] to approve the merger
agreement and to vote on a related proposal. Holders of shares of Independent common stock will vote at a special meeting of Independent common shareholders to be held on [&#9679;] to approve the merger agreement, including the issuance of up to
6,835,690 shares of Independent common stock in connection with the merger, which is necessary to allow the merger to close, and to vote on a related proposal. The 6,835,690 shares of Independent common stock represent the maximum number of shares
that would be issuable in the transaction, based on the estimated maximum number of shares of BHB common stock outstanding immediately prior to the merger, assuming that all outstanding stock options granted by BHB on the date hereof are exercised
and all outstanding shares of restricted stock on the date hereof vest in accordance with their terms. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If the proposed merger is
completed, BHB&#146;s stockholders will receive in exchange for each share of BHB common stock, (i) $5.25 in cash and (ii) 0.2308 of a share of Independent common stock in accordance with the terms and conditions of the merger agreement.
Independent&#146;s and BHB&#146;s common stock are each listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the trading symbols &#147;INDB&#148; and &#147;BHBK,&#148; respectively. The closing sales prices of Independent common stock and BHB common
stock on [&#9679;], the last practicable trading day prior to the mailing of this document, were $[&#9679;] and $[&#9679;], respectively. The equivalent value of the consideration to be paid in the merger for each share of BHB, calculated by
(i)&nbsp;adding $5.25 to (ii)&nbsp;the product obtained by multiplying the closing sales price of Independent common stock of $[&#9679;] on [&#9679;] by the 0.2308 exchange ratio, would be $[&#9679;]. The market prices for both Independent common
stock and BHB common stock will fluctuate prior to the merger, and the market price for Independent common stock will fluctuate subsequent to the merger. We urge you to obtain current market quotations for both Independent common stock and BHB
common stock. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If the market price of Independent common stock falls substantially, both in absolute terms (that is, a volume weighted
average trading price below $77.07) and by comparison to a market capitalization-weighted index of the stock of banking companies that comprise the Nasdaq Bank Stock Index, BHB may terminate the merger agreement. However, if BHB seeks to exercise
that termination right, Independent may negate the termination by increasing the exchange ratio from 0.2308 of a share to a formula amount determined in accordance with the merger agreement, as described in this joint proxy statement/prospectus.
</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We generally expect the merger to be <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">tax-free</FONT> solely with respect to the Independent common stock
that BHB common stockholders receive. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Assuming the exchange ratio is 0.2308 of a share, if the merger is completed and all outstanding
stock options granted by BHB on the date hereof are exercised and all outstanding shares of restricted stock on the date hereof vest in accordance with their terms prior to the closing of the merger, BHB common stockholders will own approximately
6.8&nbsp;million shares, or approximately 20%, of Independent&#146;s outstanding common stock. Independent expects substantially fewer shares of Independent common stock will be issued in the merger because not all outstanding stock options granted
by BHB will be exercised before the closing of the merger. If no stock options are exercised, BHB stockholders would own approximately 18% of Independent&#146;s common stock upon completion of the merger. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Independent and BHB cannot complete the proposed merger unless, among other conditions, BHB&#146;s stockholders approve the merger agreement

&#147;Forward-Looking Statements,&#148; BHB&#146;s stockholders and Independent&#146;s shareholders should carefully consider the following risks before deciding whether to vote for approval of the merger agreement. In addition, stockholders of BHB
should read and consider the risks associated with the business of Independent because these risks will relate to the combined company. Certain of these risks with respect to the business of Independent can be found in Independent&#146;s annual
report on Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">10-K</FONT> for the fiscal year ended December&nbsp;31, 2017, and quarterly reports on Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">10-Q</FONT> for each of the quarters ended March&nbsp;31, 2018,
June&nbsp;30, 2018 and September&nbsp;30, 2018, which reports are incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus. You should also consider the other information in this joint proxy statement/prospectus and the other documents
incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus. See &#147;Where You Can Find More Information&#148; and &#147;Incorporation of Certain Documents by Reference&#148; beginning on page [</I>&#9679;<I></I><I>]. </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><A NAME="toc611117_4"></A>Risks Related to the Merger </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Absent an exercise by BHB of its &#147;walk away&#148; right and a subsequent &#147;top up&#148; election by Independent, the exchange ratio used to
determine the stock portion of the consideration in the merger will be 0.2308 and will not change due to changes in the market value of Independent common stock before the completion of the merger, regardless of how significant such changes might
be. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Upon completion of the merger, each share of BHB common stock will be converted into the right to receive (i) $5.25 in cash
and (2) 0.2308 of a share of Independent common stock. The exchange ratio used to determine the stock portion of the merger consideration will not increase based on fluctuations in the market price of Independent common stock regardless of how far
the price of Independent common stock falls, except in the event Independent&#146;s stock drops below certain levels and BHB exercises its &#147;walk away&#148; right and Independent subsequently exercises its right to &#147;top up&#148; the stock
consideration to void the &#147;walk away&#148; right. The market value of Independent common stock has varied since Independent and BHB entered into the merger agreement and will continue to vary in the future due to changes in the business,
operations or prospects of Independent, market assessments of the merger, regulatory considerations, market and economic considerations, and other factors both within and beyond the control of Independent. Therefore, at the time of the BHB special
meeting, BHB&#146;s stockholders will not know or be able to calculate the market value of the Independent common stock they will receive upon completion of the merger. For example, based on the range of closing prices of Independent common stock
during the period from September&nbsp;20, 2018, the last trading day before public announcement of the merger, through [&#9679;], the last practicable date before the date of this document, the exchange ratio for the stock portion of the merger
consideration plus the cash portion of the merger consideration represented a market value ranging from a low of $[&#9679;] to a high of $[&#9679;] for each share of BHB common stock exchanged for the merger consideration. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Because the market price of Independent common stock will fluctuate, BHB stockholders cannot be sure of the trading price of the stock portion of the
merger consideration they will receive and the price of Independent common stock might decrease after the merger. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Upon completion
of the merger, each share of BHB common stock will be converted into the right to receive merger consideration consisting of (i) $5.25 in cash and (2) 0.2308 of a share of Independent common stock. BHB does not have the right under the merger
agreement to increase the exchange ratio in the merger agreement in the event of any decline in the stock price of Independent prior to the merger. There also will be a period of time between the date when BHB stockholders vote on the merger
agreement and the date when the merger is completed. The market price of Independent common stock may vary between the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, the date of the BHB special meeting, and the date of completion of the merger. For
example, during the twelve-month period ending on [&#9679;] (the last practicable date before the date of this document), the closing price of Independent common stock varied from a low of&nbsp; $[&#9679;] to a high of&nbsp; $[&#9679;] and

ended that period at $[&#9679;]. The market value of Independent common stock fluctuates based upon general market economic conditions, Independent&#146;s business and prospects and other
factors. Many of these factors are beyond the control of Independent and are not necessarily related to a change in the financial performance or condition of Independent. As the market price for shares of Independent will fluctuate, based on
numerous factors, the value of the shares of Independent common stock that a BHB stockholder will receive in the merger will correspondingly fluctuate. It is impossible to know the market price of Independent common stock after completion of the
merger. Accordingly, the price of Independent common stock on the date of the BHB special meeting may not be indicative of the price of Independent common stock immediately prior to completion of the merger and the price of Independent common stock
after the merger is completed. Independent&#146;s common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol &#147;INDB.&#148; We urge BHB stockholders to obtain current market quotations for Independent common stock on a regular
basis. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Independent intends to incur debt to fund cash payments required in connection with the merger. </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Independent will be required to pay cash consideration in connection with the closing of the merger of up to approximately $171.7&nbsp;million,
not including transaction costs and expenses incurred by Independent in connection with the merger. Although the merger agreement does not include a financing contingency, Independent does not currently believe that it will have sufficient cash at
closing at the holding company level to pay the cash portion of the merger consideration and other transaction costs and expenses required to complete the merger. Accordingly, Independent intends to issue debt in order to raise cash to complete the
merger. If Independent is unable to issue debt on attractive terms or at all, Rockland Trust may have to pay a special dividend to Independent to supply Independent with the cash needed to complete the merger. However, any special dividend is
subject to regulatory approval and the cash reserves and regulatory capital of Rockland Trust may be materially adversely affected by the special cash dividend. Independent has not entered into any definitive agreement for debt financing, and its
ability to obtain debt financing is subject to various factors, including market conditions, Independent&#146;s operating performance and financial condition and third party credit ratings. Independent cannot assure you that it will be able to
secure debt financing in a sufficient amount, on acceptable terms, in a timely manner or at all, and Independent further cannot assure you that in the event it is unable to secure debt financing, Rockland Trust will receive regulatory approval to
pay a special dividend to Independent. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>The fairness opinions rendered to the boards of directors of BHB and Independent by the parties&#146;
respective financial advisors prior to the signing of the merger agreement do not reflect changes in events or circumstances occurring after the respective dates of the opinions. </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The opinions of KBW, financial advisor to BHB, and of Sandler, financial advisor to Independent, were delivered on and dated September&nbsp;19,

general market and economic conditions or other changes. Any of these changes may alter the relative value of BHB or Independent or the prices of shares of BHB common stock or Independent common stock by the time the merger is completed. The
opinions do not speak as of the date the merger will be completed or as of any date other than the dates of the respective opinions, and neither BHB nor Independent expects to request updated fairness opinions from their respective financial
advisors. For a description of the opinion of BHB&#146;s financial advisor, please see &#147;The Merger &#150; Opinion of BHB&#146;s Financial Advisor.&#148; For a description of the opinion of Independent&#146;s financial advisor, please see

seek to change existing business relationships with BHB. Retention of certain employees may be challenging during the pendency of the merger, as certain employees may experience uncertainty about
their future roles with Independent. If key employees depart because of issues relating to the uncertainty or difficulty of integration or a desire not to remain with Independent, Independent&#146;s business following the merger could be harmed. In
addition, the merger agreement restricts BHB from taking certain actions without the consent of Independent until the merger occurs. These restrictions may prevent BHB from pursuing attractive business opportunities that may arise prior to the
completion of the merger. Please see the section entitled &#147;The Merger Agreement &#150; Conduct of Business Pending the Merger&#148; of this joint proxy statement/prospectus for a description of the restrictive covenants to which BHB is subject.

businesses is more difficult than expected. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The success of the merger will depend, in part, on our ability to successfully combine
the businesses of Independent and BHB. Independent may fail to realize some or all of the anticipated benefits of the transaction if the integration process takes longer or is more costly than expected. Furthermore, any number of unanticipated
adverse occurrences for either the business of BHB or Independent may cause us to fail to realize some or all of the expected benefits. The integration process could result in the loss of key employees, the disruption of each company&#146;s ongoing
businesses or inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies that adversely affect our ability to maintain relationships with clients, customers, depositors and employees or to achieve the anticipated benefits of the merger. Each of
these issues might adversely affect Independent, BHB or both during the transition period, resulting in adverse effects on Independent following the merger. As a result, revenues may be lower than expected or costs may be higher than expected and
the overall benefits of the merger may not be as great as anticipated. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Some of the directors and executive officers of BHB may have interests and

of the directors and executive officers of BHB may be different from those of BHB stockholders, and certain directors and executive officers of BHB may be participants in arrangements that are different from, or are in addition to, those of BHB
stockholders, including agreements in settlement of obligations to such officers under <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">pre-existing</FONT> employment and change in control agreements, employment agreements with Rockland Trust, and provisions in the
merger agreement relating to indemnification of directors and officers and insurance for directors and officers of BHB for events occurring before the merger. These interests are described in more detail in the section of this joint proxy

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The merger agreement contains provisions that limit BHB&#146;s ability to solicit, initiate, encourage or take any actions to facilitate
competing third-party proposals to acquire all or substantially all of BHB. These provisions, which include a $26,200,000 termination fee and/or the reimbursement of up to $750,000 in Independent&#146;s expenses, payable under certain circumstances,
might discourage a potential competing acquiror that might have an interest in acquiring all or substantially all of BHB from considering or proposing that acquisition even if it were prepared to pay consideration with a higher per share market
price than that proposed in the merger, or might result in a potential competing acquiror proposing to pay a lower per share price to acquire BHB than it might otherwise have proposed to pay. </P>

the merger or imposing additional costs on or limiting the revenues of Independent following the merger, any of which might have a material adverse effect on Independent following the merger. Independent is not obligated to complete the merger if

fee restrictions. The exemption for small issuers ceases to apply as of July 1st of the year following the calendar year in which the debit card issuer has total consolidated assets of
$10&nbsp;billion or more at calendar <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">year-end.</FONT> As a result, if the bank merger is consummated in 2019, Rockland Trust will become subject to the interchange restrictions of the Durbin Amendment beginning
July&nbsp;1, 2020. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition, an insured depository institution with total assets of $10&nbsp;billion or more is subject to
supervision, examination, and enforcement with respect to consumer protection laws by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, which we refer to as the CFPB. Under its current policies, the CFPB will assert jurisdiction in the first quarter after
the call reports of merging insured depository institutions, on a combined basis, show total consolidated assets of $10&nbsp;billion or more for four consecutive quarters, including quarters ended prior to the merger. As a result, Independent
expects Rockland Trust to become subject to CFPB supervision, examination and enforcement at the beginning of the quarter following consummation of the bank merger. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">There are other regulatory requirements that apply to insured depository institution holding companies and insured depository institutions
with total consolidated assets of $10&nbsp;billion or more. These include, but are not limited to, (i)&nbsp;the establishment by publicly traded depository institution holding companies with $10&nbsp;billion or more in assets of a risk committee
responsible for oversight of enterprise-wide risk management practices that are commensurate with the entity&#146;s structure, risk profile, complexity, activities and size and (ii)&nbsp;an institution with total consolidated assets of
$10&nbsp;billion or more no longer being entitled to benefit from the FDIC&#146;s offset of the effect of the increase in the statutory minimum Deposit Insurance Fund reserve ratio to 1.35% from the former statutory minimum of 1.15% that is required
for institutions with assets of less than $10&nbsp;billion by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition,
Congress and/or regulatory agencies may impose new requirements or surcharges on these institutions in the future. The Economic Growth, Regulatory Reform, and Consumer Protection Act, which was enacted on May&nbsp;24, 2018, includes provisions that,
as they are implemented, relieve banking organizations with total consolidated assets of less than $10&nbsp;billion (and that satisfy certain other conditions) from risk-based capital requirements, restrictions on proprietary trading and investment
and sponsorship in hedge funds and private equity funds known as the Volcker Rule, and certain other regulatory requirements. Once Independent and Rockland Trust have total consolidated assets of $10&nbsp;billion or more, Independent and Rockland
Trust will no longer qualify for any of the foregoing relief. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">There can be no assurance that the benefits of the merger will outweigh the

materially from those expressed in, or implied by, the forward-looking statements. You are therefore cautioned not to place undue reliance on these statements, which speak only as of the date of this document or the date of any document incorporated
by reference in this document. Some of the factors that may cause actual results or earnings to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, those discussed elsewhere in this joint

$171.3&nbsp;million in cash and 6,191,824 shares of Independent common stock to be paid or issued to holders of BHB common stock upon completion of the merger. The number of shares of Independent common stock was calculated based on 26,827,660

information becomes available and as additional analyses are performed. The final allocation of the purchase price will be determined after the merger is completed and after the completion of a final analysis to determine the fair values of
BHB&#146;s tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities as of the closing date. The final purchase price adjustments may differ materially from the preliminary pro forma adjustments. Increases or decreases in the fair value of certain
balance sheet amounts and other items of BHB as compared to the information presented in this document may change the amount of the purchase price allocated to goodwill and other assets and liabilities and may impact the statement of income due to
adjustments in yield and/or amortization of adjusted assets and liabilities. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">It is anticipated that the merger will provide Independent
with financial benefits, such as possible expense efficiencies and revenue enhancements, among other factors, although no assurances can be given that these benefits will actually be achieved. The impact of these benefits has not been reflected in
the preliminary pro forma financial information. As required, the preliminary pro forma financial information includes adjustments that give effect to events that are directly attributable to the merger and factually supportable. As a result, any
planned adjustments affecting the balance sheet, income statement, or shares of common stock outstanding subsequent to the assumed completion date of the merger have not been included. </P>

of the Independent board of directors and the BHB board of directors has approved the merger agreement. The merger agreement provides for the merger of BHB with and into Independent, with Independent continuing as the surviving corporation.
Immediately following the completion of the merger, Blue Hills, a wholly owned bank subsidiary of BHB, will merge with and into Independent&#146;s wholly owned bank subsidiary, Rockland Trust, with Rockland Trust as the surviving entity in the bank
merger. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The merger is structured as a 80% stock and 20% cash transaction. At the effective time of the merger, each share of BHB common
stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time will, by virtue of the merger and without any action on the part of the stockholder, be converted into the right to receive (i) $5.25 in cash and (ii) 0.2308 of a share of Independent common
stock. The exchange ratio may be adjusted to reflect the effect of any stock split, <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">split-up,</FONT> reverse stock split, stock dividend, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, or other similar change
with respect to the common stock of Independent or BHB that occurs before the merger. No fractional shares of Independent common stock will be issued in connection with the merger, and holders of BHB common stock will be entitled to receive cash in

number of shares of Independent common stock that could be issued to BHB&#146;s stockholders in connection with the merger, which would represent approximately 20% of the outstanding Independent common stock. Independent expects substantially fewer
shares of Independent common stock will be issued in the merger because not all outstanding stock options granted by BHB will be exercised before the closing of the merger. If no stock options are exercised, BHB stockholders would own approximately
18% of Independent&#146;s common stock upon completion of the merger. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><A NAME="toc611117_43"></A>Background of the Merger </B></P>

the publicly traded holding company for Blue Hills. Over the course of the following years, BHB managed its capital through strong organic growth, stock repurchases and recurring and special dividends. Since the conversion, BHB also has, from time
to time, been presented with and reviewed opportunities to acquire or bid upon other financial institutions or their assets but was either not able to execute upon those potential transactions or determined that they would not have been favorable to
BHB and its stockholders. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Over the past few years, the BHB board of directors has had numerous discussions with its management, industry
analysts, and consultants regarding the future of the community banking industry, the appropriate size and scale of BHB and the profitability targets that it should be attempting to achieve. These discussions have included the topics of competition,
disintermediation risk, product requirements, technology investments, and prospective valuation risks in the future. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Additionally, since
2014, William M. Parent, Chief Executive Officer and President of BHB, has had numerous conversations with the chief executive officers, and in some cases board members, of various regional financial institutions that expressed possible interest in

projections and operations of BHB and anticipated industry and market conditions. As a result of the deliberations at this planning session, the BHB board of directors approved a course of action whereby BHB would begin to explore a strategic merger
of equals that would enable BHB to better execute its operating strategies, optimize its scale and leverage its resources to more effectively compete for future acquisitions and other growth opportunities in its marketplace. The BHB board of
directors determined that, if a favorable merger of equals were not available, it would assess other strategic measures, including remaining independent or pursuing a sale transaction. </P>

with the BHB board of directors the community banking industry, observed merger market metrics and pricing, BHB&#146;s recent and projected financial performance, its recent stock performance, its tactical position in the market, and a review of
possible merger partners, including their apparent financial ability and capacity to offer merger consideration in a transaction with BHB and the attributes of possible partners, as well as their stock performance and recent pricing trends. At that
meeting, the BHB board of directors determined that BHB should pursue a strategic combination with a larger institution that would be better able to utilize and leverage the resources of BHB based on several factors, including BHB&#146;s competitive
limitations in its market area, the future risks and rewards in remaining independent, the ability to improve earnings, and an assessment of BHB&#146;s acquisition and growth opportunities in the near term. The board of directors directed
management, with KBW&#146;s assistance, to prepare BHB for a possible strategic transaction and develop a targeted solicitation process whereby the possible partners that were identified as the most favorable partners during the discussions, which
included Independent, would be contacted to assess their interest in a possible transaction with BHB and gauge their specific level of interest and possible pricing. BHB determined that KBW would approach only those institutions that had been
identified as a favorable strategic fit for BHB, that had successfully completed acquisitions, and that had other favorable operating attributes and stable currencies. </P>

Company B, after initially expressing some interest in a dialogue, decided it was not interested in such a transaction and did not offer any price or range of pricing. Company C expressed some interest in a merger transaction with BHB, but was not

discussed a targeted price range of $24 &#150; $25 per share, whereas Mr.&nbsp;Parent discussed a targeted price range of $25 &#150; $26 per share. Mr.&nbsp;Oddleifson expressed interest in pursuing a transaction, but stated the need for a few days

financial aspects of the proposal from Independent in comparison to recent transactions and in comparison to the potential future performance of BHB as expected by BHB&#146;s management on a stand-alone basis. After reviewing the information and
consulting with KBW, BHB&#146;s board of directors instructed KBW and Mr.&nbsp;Parent to propose a counter offer of $27.00 in cash per share for 20% of BHB common stock and 0.308 of a share of Independent common stock for each share of the remaining
80% of BHB common stock. This counter offer would have resulted in consideration of $5.40 in cash and 0.2464 of a share of Independent common stock for each share of BHB common stock. </P>

considered by the BHB board of directors. Based on the factors described above, the BHB board of directors determined that the merger with Independent would be advisable and in the best interests of BHB stockholders and approved the merger agreement
and related transactions it contemplates. In view of the wide variety and complexity of factors considered by the BHB board of directors in connection with its evaluation of the merger, the BHB board of directors did not consider it practical, and
did not attempt, to quantify, rank or otherwise assign relative weights to the specific factors it considered in reaching its decision and did not undertake to make any specific determination as to whether any particular factor, or any aspect of any
factor, was favorable or unfavorable to the ultimate determination of the BHB board of directors. Rather, the BHB board of directors made its recommendation based on the totality of information presented to, and the investigation conducted by, it.
In considering the factors discussed above, individual directors may have given different weights to different individual factors. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><A NAME="toc611117_46">

received by such stockholders in the proposed merger of BHB with and into Independent. BHB selected KBW because KBW is a nationally recognized investment banking firm with substantial experience in transactions similar to the merger. As part of its
investment banking business, KBW is continually engaged in the valuation of financial services businesses and their securities in connection with mergers and acquisitions. </P>

the BHB board of directors evaluated the proposed merger. At this meeting, KBW reviewed the financial aspects of the proposed merger and rendered to the BHB board of directors an opinion to the effect that, as of such date and subject to the
procedures followed, assumptions made, matters considered, and qualifications and limitations on the review undertaken by KBW, as set forth in its opinion, the merger consideration in the proposed merger was fair, from a financial point of view, to

addressed only the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the merger consideration in the merger to the holders of BHB common stock. It did not address the underlying business decision of BHB to engage in the merger or enter into the merger
agreement or constitute a recommendation to the BHB board of directors in connection with the merger, and it does not constitute a recommendation to any holder of BHB common stock or any stockholder of any other entity as to how to vote in

The following is not a complete description of the financial analyses underlying the opinion or the presentation made by KBW to the BHB board of directors, but rather summarizes the material analyses performed by KBW and presented to the BHB board
of directors in connection with KBW&#146;s opinion. The financial analyses summarized below includes information presented in tabular format. The tables alone do not constitute a complete description of the financial analyses. The preparation of a
fairness opinion is a complex analytic process involving various determinations as to appropriate and relevant methods of financial analysis and the application of those methods to the particular circumstances. Therefore, a fairness opinion is not
readily susceptible to partial analysis or summary description. In arriving at its opinion, KBW did not attribute any particular weight to any analysis or factor that it considered, but rather made qualitative judgments as to the significance and
relevance of each analysis and factor. Accordingly, KBW believes that its analyses and the summary of its analyses must be considered as a whole and that selecting portions of its analyses and factors or focusing on the information presented below
in tabular format, without considering all analyses and factors or the full narrative description of the financial analyses, including the methodologies and assumptions underlying the analyses, could create a misleading or incomplete view of the
process underlying its analyses and opinion. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For purposes of the financial analyses described below, KBW utilized an implied transaction
value for the merger of $25.92 per share of BHB common stock, or $727.7&nbsp;million in the aggregate (inclusive of the implied value of <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">in-the-money</FONT></FONT> BHB options),
consisting of the sum of (i)&nbsp;the implied value of the stock consideration of 0.2308 shares of Independent common stock based on the closing price of Independent common stock on September&nbsp;18, 2018, and (ii)&nbsp;the cash consideration of
$5.25. In addition to the financial analyses described below, KBW reviewed with the BHB board of directors for informational purposes, among other things, an implied transaction multiple for the proposed merger (based on the implied transaction
value for the merger of $25.92 per share of BHB common stock) of 24.7x BHB&#146;s estimated 2018 earnings per share (&#147;EPS&#148;), using the publicly available 2018 EPS consensus &#147;street estimate&#148; for BHB. </P>

directors unanimously approved the merger agreement and the merger because it determined that the merger is a natural expansion and strengthening of its Norfolk, Suffolk and Nantucket County, Massachusetts franchises that should increase long-term
shareholder value because Blue Hills is, like Rockland Trust, a bank that is deeply committed to its customers, employees, and the communities that it serves. The merger should provide Rockland Trust with access to new and potential customers in
Norfolk County, Suffolk County and Nantucket County, Massachusetts and provide Independent with deposit market share in Nantucket, Massachusetts, where Rockland Trust does not currently have a physical presence, and other towns in the surrounding
area. The transaction is financially attractive to Independent and its shareholders because it allows Independent to add the loan and deposit base of Blue Hills to that of Independent while simultaneously providing Independent with the opportunity
to maintain and deepen relationships with customers of Blue Hills by offering Independent&#146;s deeper set of products. The Independent board of directors believes that the combined company should have the potential to realize a stronger
competitive position and improved long-term operating and financial results, including revenue and earning enhancements. In addition, Independent&#146;s financial advisor, Sandler O&#146;Neill&nbsp;&amp; Partners, L.P., reviewed in detail with the
board of directors the financial aspects of the proposed merger and delivered its opinion, to the effect that, as of September&nbsp;20, 2018 and subject to the limitations, assumptions, and qualifications set forth therein, the merger consideration
was fair to Independent, from a financial point of view. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">After taking into account these and other factors, the Independent board of
directors determined that the merger agreement and the merger were advisable to Independent and Rockland Trust and that Independent should enter into the merger agreement and complete the merger. Independent&#146;s board of directors evaluated the
factors described above, including asking questions of Independent&#146;s management and Independent&#146;s legal and financial advisors, and reached the unanimous decision that the merger was advisable to Independent and Rockland Trust. This
discussion of the factors considered by Independent&#146;s board of directors is not exhaustive, but includes all material factors considered by the board. Independent&#146;s board of directors considered these factors as a whole, and overall
considered them to be favorable to, and to support, its determination. Independent&#146;s board of directors did not consider it practical to, nor did it attempt to, quantify, rank or otherwise assign relative weights to the specific factors that it

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Independent retained Sandler to act as financial advisor to Independent&#146;s board of directors in connection with Independent&#146;s
consideration of a possible business combination. Sandler is a nationally recognized investment banking firm whose principal business specialty is financial institutions. In the ordinary course of its investment banking business, Sandler is
regularly engaged in the valuation of financial institutions and their securities in connection with mergers and acquisitions and other corporate transactions. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Sandler acted as financial advisor in connection with the proposed transaction. At the September&nbsp;20, 2018 meeting at which
Independent&#146;s board of directors considered and discussed the terms of the merger agreement and the merger, Sandler delivered to Independent&#146;s board of directors its oral and written opinion, to the effect that, as of such date, the merger
consideration provided for in the merger agreement was fair to Independent, from a financial point of view. <B>The full text of Sandler&#146;s opinion is attached as Annex C to this joint proxy statement/prospectus. The opinion outlines the
procedures followed, assumptions made, matters considered and qualifications and limitations on the review undertaken by Sandler in rendering its opinion. The description of the opinion set forth below is qualified in its entirety by reference to
the full text of the opinion. Independent shareholders are urged to read the entire opinion carefully in connection with their consideration of the proposed merger.</B> </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Sandler&#146;s opinion speaks only as of the date of the opinion. The opinion was directed to Independent&#146;s board of directors in
connection with its consideration of the merger agreement and the merger and does not constitute a recommendation to any shareholder of Independent as to how any such shareholder should vote at any meeting of shareholders called to consider and vote
upon the approval of the merger agreement, the merger and the issuance of up to 6,835,690</B> <B>shares of Independent common stock in connection with the merger. Sandler&#146;s opinion was directed only to the fairness, from a financial point of
view, of the merger consideration to Independent and does not address the underlying business decision of Independent to engage in the merger, the form or structure of the merger or any other transactions contemplated in the merger agreement, the
relative merits of the merger as compared to any other alternative transactions or business strategies that might exist for Independent or the effect of any other transaction in which Independent might engage.</B> Sandler did not express any opinion
as to the fairness of the amount or nature of the compensation to be received in the merger by any officer, director or employee of Independent or BHB, or any class of such persons, if any, relative to the compensation to be received in the merger
by any other shareholder. Sandler&#146;s opinion was approved by its fairness opinion committee. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In connection with its opinion, Sandler

any particular weight to any analysis or factor that it considered. Rather, Sandler made qualitative judgments as to the significance and relevance of each analysis and factor. Sandler did not
form an opinion as to whether any individual analysis or factor (positive or negative) considered in isolation supported or failed to support its opinion, rather, Sandler made its determination as to the fairness of the merger consideration on the
basis of its experience and professional judgment after considering the results of all its analyses taken as a whole. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In performing its
analyses, Sandler also made numerous assumptions with respect to industry performance, business and economic conditions and various other matters, many of which are beyond the control of Independent, BHB and Sandler. The analyses performed by
Sandler are not necessarily indicative of actual values or future results, both of which may be significantly more or less favorable than suggested by such analyses. Sandler prepared its analyses solely for purposes of rendering its opinion and
provided such analyses to Independent&#146;s board of directors at its September&nbsp;20, 2018 meeting. Estimates on the values of companies do not purport to be appraisals or necessarily reflect the prices at which companies or their securities may
actually be sold. Such estimates are inherently subject to uncertainty and actual values may be materially different. Accordingly, Sandler&#146;s analyses do not necessarily reflect the value of Independent common shares or the prices at which
Independent common shares or BHB shares may be sold at any time. The analyses of Sandler and its opinion were among a number of factors taken into consideration by Independent&#146;s board of directors in making its determination to approve the
merger agreement and should not be viewed as determinative of the merger agreement or the decision of Independent&#146;s board of directors or management with respect to the fairness of the merger. The type and amount of consideration payable in the
merger were determined through negotiation between Independent and BHB. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Summary of Merger Consideration and Implied Transaction
Metrics.</I></B> Sandler reviewed the financial terms of the proposed merger. As more fully described in the merger agreement, at the effective time, each share of BHB common stock issued and outstanding prior to the effective time will be converted
into the right to receive (i) $5.25 in cash, and (ii) 0.2308 of a share of common stock of Independent. Based on the closing price of Independent common stock on September&nbsp;18, 2018 of $89.55 per share, Sandler calculated an implied transaction
price per share of $25.92 and an aggregate implied transaction value of approximately $728&nbsp;million, assuming 26,901,347 BHB common shares outstanding and 2,760,700 stock options outstanding with a weighted average strike price of $15.21, as of
August&nbsp;1, 2018. Based upon publicly available historical financial information for BHB and publicly available median analyst earnings per share estimates for BHB for the year ending December&nbsp;31, 2018, Sandler calculated the following
implied transaction metrics: </P> <P STYLE="font-size:12pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>

share of BHB common stock assuming BHB performed in accordance with publicly available consensus median analyst GAAP earnings per share estimates for BHB for the year ending December&nbsp;31, 2018 and for the quarters ending March&nbsp;31, 2019 and
June&nbsp;30, 2019, as well as estimated long-term net income and balance sheet growth rates and dividends per share for BHB for September&nbsp;30, 2019 and December&nbsp;31, 2019 and for the years thereafter, as provided by the senior management of
Independent. To approximate the terminal value of a share of BHB common stock at December&nbsp;31, 2022, Sandler applied price to 2022 earnings per share multiples ranging from 15.0x to 20.0x and price to December&nbsp;31, 2022 tangible book value
per share multiples ranging from 140% to 190%. The terminal values were then discounted to present values using different discount rates ranging from 8.0% to 12.0% which were chosen to reflect different assumptions regarding required rates of return
of holders or prospective buyers of BHB common stock. As illustrated in the following tables, the analysis indicated an imputed range of values per share of BHB common stock of $13.18 to $19.36 when applying multiples of earnings per share and
$17.14 to $25.98 when applying multiples of tangible book value per share. Sandler also performed a similar analysis that estimated the net present value per share of BHB common stock using the same criteria described above and including the impact
of the estimated <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">after-tax</FONT> cost savings as a result of the merger, as provided by the senior management of Independent. As illustrated in the following tables, the analysis including estimated <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">after-tax</FONT> cost savings indicated an imputed range of values per share of BHB common stock of $21.42 to $32.30 when applying multiples of earnings per share and $18.83 to $28.68 when applying multiples of tangible
book value per share. </P>

</TABLE> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Sandler also considered and discussed with the Independent board of directors how these analyses would be
affected by changes in the underlying assumptions, including variations with respect to net income. To illustrate this impact, Sandler performed similar analyses assuming BHB&#146; net income varied from 10% above projections to 10% below
projections. These analyses resulted in the following range of per share values for BHB common stock, applying the price to 2022 earnings per share multiples range of 15.0x to 20.0x referred to above and a discount rate of 10.84%. </P>

value per share of Independent common stock assuming Independent performed in accordance with publicly available consensus median analyst GAAP earnings per share and dividends per share estimates for the years ending December 31, 2018 and December
31, 2019, as well as an estimated long-term earnings per share growth rate and estimated dividends per share for the years thereafter, as provided by the senior management of Independent. To approximate the terminal value of a share of Independent
common stock at December 31, 2022, Sandler applied price to 2022 earnings per share multiples ranging from 15.0x to 21.0x and price to December 31, 2022 tangible book value per share multiples ranging from 200% to 350%. The terminal values were then
discounted to present values using different discount rates ranging from 7.0% to 12.0% which were chosen to reflect different assumptions regarding required rates of return of holders or prospective buyers of Independent common stock. As illustrated
in the following tables, the analysis indicated an imputed range of values per share of Independent common stock of $65.81 to $109.55 when applying multiples of earnings per share and $59.59 to $121.81 when applying multiples of tangible book value
per share. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="center"><B>Earnings Per Share Multiples </B></P> <P STYLE="font-size:12pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>

</TABLE> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Sandler also considered and discussed with the Independent board of directors how this analysis would be
affected by changes in the underlying assumptions, including variations with respect to net income. To illustrate this impact, Sandler performed a similar analysis assuming Independent&#146;s net income varied from 10% above estimates to 10% below
estimates. This analysis resulted in the following range of per share values for Independent common stock, applying the price to 2022 earnings per share multiples range of 15.0x to 21.0x referred to above and a discount rate of 10.84%. </P>

</TABLE> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Sandler noted that the net present value analysis is a widely used valuation methodology, but the results of
such methodology are highly dependent upon the numerous assumptions that must be made, and the results thereof are not necessarily indicative of actual values or future results. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Pro Forma Merger Analysis.</I></B> Sandler analyzed certain potential pro forma effects of the merger, assuming the merger closes the
second quarter of 2019. In performing this analysis, Sandler utilized the following information and assumptions: (i) publicly available consensus median analyst GAAP earnings per share and dividends per share estimates for Independent for the years
ending December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2019, as well as an estimated long-term earnings per share growth rate and estimated dividends per share for the years thereafter, as provided by the senior management of Independent; (ii) publicly available
consensus median analyst GAAP earnings per share estimates for BHB for the year ending December 31, 2018 and for the quarters ending March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019, as well as estimated long-term net income and balance sheet growth rates and
dividends per share for the quarters ending September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2019 and for the years thereafter, as provided by the senior management of BHB; and (iii) certain assumptions relating to transaction expenses, purchase accounting
adjustments and cost savings, as provided by the senior management of Independent. The analysis indicated that the merger could be accretive to Independent&#146;s estimated earnings per share (excluding one-time transaction costs and expenses) in
the years ending December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2020 and accretive to Independent&#146;s estimated tangible book value per share at close and at December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2020. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In connection with this analysis, Sandler considered and discussed with the Independent board of directors how the analysis would be affected
by changes in the underlying assumptions, including the impact of final purchase accounting adjustments determined at the closing of the transaction, and noted that the actual results achieved by the combined company may vary from projected results
and the variations may be material. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Sandler&#146;s Relationship.</I></B> Sandler received a fee of $1.5 million for rendering its
opinion. Independent has also agreed to indemnify Sandler against certain claims and liabilities arising out of Sandler&#146;s engagement and to reimburse Sandler for certain out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with their engagement. In
the two years preceding the date of Sandler&#146;s opinion, Sandler provided certain other investment banking services to Independent. Most recently, Sandler rendered a fairness opinion to the board of directors of Independent in connection with
Independent&#146;s acquisition of Island Bancorp, Inc., which transaction closed in May 2017, for which Sandler received a fee of $90,000. Sandler has not provided any investment banking services to BHB in the two years preceding the date of its
opinion. In the ordinary course of Sandler&#146;s business as a broker-dealer, Sandler may purchase securities from and sell securities to Independent, BHB and their respective affiliates. Sandler may also actively trade the equity and debt
securities of Independent, BHB and their respective affiliates for Sandler&#146;s own account and for the accounts of Sandler&#146;s customers. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><A NAME="toc611117_50">

September&nbsp;20, 2018, with Robert M. Driscoll, Executive Vice President, Residential Lending, pursuant to which Mr.&nbsp;Driscoll will serve as an employee of Rockland Trust. The term of Mr.&nbsp;Driscoll&#146;s employment begins on the date of
the closing of the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement and continues through the third anniversary of the date of the closing, at which time the letter agreement will terminate and Mr.&nbsp;Driscoll will become an <FONT

been terminated for cause or has terminated his employment with Rockland Trust for other than good reason, as such terms are defined in the letter agreement. Mr.&nbsp;Driscoll is also entitled to customary salary increases, incentive compensation

Mr.&nbsp;Driscoll will be entitled to a lump sum cash payment of $10,000 in exchange for his release of any and all rights that he might have under the change in control agreement. However, the letter agreement provides further that

acquired, including intangible assets, and liabilities assumed at their respective estimated fair values. To the extent that the purchase price exceeds the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired, Independent will allocate the excess
purchase price to goodwill. The goodwill resulting from the merger will not be amortized to expense, but instead will be reviewed for impairment at least annually. To the extent goodwill is impaired, its carrying value would be written down to its

Cash. </I></B>BHB stockholders will be receiving a combination of Independent common stock and cash (excluding cash received in lieu of a fractional share of Independent common stock) in exchange for their BHB common stock. BHB stockholders
generally will not be permitted to recognize any loss for federal income tax purposes and generally will recognize gain, if any, equal to the lesser of (1)&nbsp;the amount of cash received or (2)&nbsp;the amount of gain &#147;realized&#148; in the
transaction. The amount of gain an BHB stockholder &#147;realizes&#148; generally will equal the amount by which (a)&nbsp;the cash plus the fair market value at the effective time of the merger of Independent common stock received exceeds
(b)&nbsp;the stockholder&#146;s aggregate adjusted tax basis in the BHB common stock to be surrendered in the exchange for the cash and Independent common stock. Any recognized gain could be taxed as a capital gain or a dividend, as described below.
The aggregate adjusted tax basis of the shares of Independent common stock received by the BHB stockholder generally will be the same as the basis of the shares of BHB common stock surrendered in exchange for the shares of Independent common stock,
reduced by the amount of cash received by the holder in the merger (excluding any cash received in lieu of a fractional share of Independent common stock) and increased by the amount of gain, if any, recognized by the holder (excluding any gain or

and exchange of fractional shares of Independent common stock). The holding period for shares of Independent common stock received by the BHB stockholder generally will include the
stockholder&#146;s holding period for the BHB common stock surrendered in exchange for the Independent common stock. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If a U.S. holder of
BHB common stock acquired different blocks of BHB common stock at different times or different prices, any gain or loss will be determined separately with respect to each block of BHB common stock and the U.S. holder&#146;s bases and holding periods
in their shares of Independent common stock may be determined with reference to each block of BHB common stock. Any such holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the manner in which cash and Independent common stock received in the merger
should be allocated among different blocks of BHB common stock and regarding their bases and holding periods in the particular shares of Independent common stock received in the merger. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Possible Dividend Treatment</I></B>. In certain circumstances, a BHB stockholder may receive dividend income, rather than capital gain,
treatment on all or a portion of the gain recognized by that stockholder if the receipt of cash &#147;has the effect of the distribution of a dividend.&#148; The determination of whether a cash payment has that effect generally is based on a
comparison of the BHB stockholder&#146;s proportionate interest in Independent after the merger with the proportionate interest the stockholder would have had if the stockholder had received solely Independent common stock in the merger. Possible
dividend treatment could apply because of a stockholder&#146;s purchase (or the purchase by a family member or certain entities described below) of additional Independent stock or a repurchase of shares by Independent. For purposes of this
comparison, the BHB stockholder may be deemed to constructively own shares of Independent common stock held by certain members of the stockholder&#146;s family or certain entities in which the stockholder has an ownership or beneficial interest and
certain stock options may be aggregated with the stockholder&#146;s shares of Independent common stock. The amount of the cash payment that may be treated as a dividend is generally limited to the stockholder&#146;s ratable share of the accumulated
earnings and profits of BHB at the effective time of the merger, although the applicable law on this point is not entirely clear. Dividends which are &#147;qualified dividends,&#148; as defined in Section&nbsp;1(h)(11) of the Code, may be taxed at
the same rate as capital gains. Dividends which are not &#147;qualified dividends&#148; are generally taxed at ordinary income rates. Any gain that is not treated as a dividend generally will be taxed as a capital gain. Because the determination of
whether a cash payment will be treated as having the effect of a dividend depends primarily upon the facts and circumstances of each BHB stockholder, BHB stockholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax treatment of any
cash received in the merger. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Cash in Lieu of Fractional Shares</I></B>. BHB stockholders who hold BHB common stock as a capital
asset and who receive in the merger, in exchange for such stock, solely Independent common stock and cash in lieu of a fractional share interest in Independent common stock generally will be treated as having received such fractional share and then
having received such cash in redemption of such fractional share. Gain or loss generally will be recognized based on the difference between the amount of cash received in lieu of the fractional share and the portion of the stockholder&#146;s
aggregate adjusted basis in the shares of BHB common stock surrendered which is allocable to the fractional share. Such gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the stockholder&#146;s holding period for its BHB common stock
exceeds one year at the effective time of the merger. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Tax Treatment of the Entities</I></B>. No gain or loss will be recognized by
Independent or BHB as a result of the merger. The tax basis of the assets of BHB in the hands of Independent generally will be the same as the tax basis of assets in the hands of BHB immediately prior to the merger. </P>

acquisition of Island Bancorp, Inc., which transaction closed in May 2017. Sandler O&#146;Neill has not provided any investment banking services to Company in the two years preceding the date of this opinion. In the ordinary course of our business
as a broker-dealer, we may purchase securities from and sell securities to Buyer, Company and their respective affiliates. We may also actively trade the equity and debt securities of Buyer, Company and their respective affiliates for our own
account and for the accounts of our customers. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our opinion is directed to the Board of Directors of Buyer in connection with its

Merger. Our opinion is directed only as to the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the Merger Consideration to Buyer and does not address the underlying business decision of Buyer to engage in the Merger, the form or structure of the Merger

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Item&nbsp;20. Indemnification of Directors and Officers </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Independent is a Massachusetts corporation. Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 156D, Part 8, Subdivision E, provides that a corporation may,
subject to certain limitations, indemnify its directors, officers, employees and other agents, and individuals serving with respect to any employee benefit plan, and must, in certain cases, indemnify a director or officer for his reasonable costs if
he is wholly successful in his defense in a proceeding to which he was a party because he was a director or officer of the corporation. In certain circumstances, a court may order a corporation to indemnify its officers or directors or advance their
expenses. Chapter 156D, Section&nbsp;8.58 allows a corporation to limit or expand its obligation to indemnify its directors, officers, employees and agents in the corporation&#146;s articles of organization, a bylaw adopted by the shareholders, or a
contract adopted by its board of directors or shareholders. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Both Chapter 156D, Section&nbsp;8.57 and Independent&#146;s articles of
organization provide that the corporation may purchase and maintain insurance against liability incurred by an officer or director in his capacity as officer or director or while serving at Independent&#146;s request as a director, officer, partner,
trustee, employee, or agent of another domestic or foreign corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan, or other entity, or arising out of his status as such. Independent currently maintains directors&#146; and
officers&#146; liability insurance, which insures the officers and directors of Independent from any claim arising out of an alleged wrongful act by such person in their respective capacities as officers and directors of Independent. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under Independent&#146;s articles of organization and its bylaws, Independent may not indemnify a director or officer unless ordered to do so
by a court if his or her conduct: (a)&nbsp;was a breach of the director&#146;s or officer&#146;s duty of loyalty to Independent or its shareholders, (b)&nbsp;was not in good faith or involved intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law,
(c)&nbsp;resulted in an improper distribution under Section&nbsp;6.40 of Chapter 156D of the Massachusetts General Laws, (d)&nbsp;was conduct from which the director or officer derived an improper personal benefit, or (e)&nbsp;was at least not
opposed to the best interests of Independent, if the conduct was with respect to an employee benefit plan, for a purpose he or she reasonably believed to be in the interests of the participants in, and the beneficiaries of, the plan. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The determination of whether the relevant standard of conduct have been met shall be made: (a)&nbsp;if there are two or more disinterested
directors, by the board of directors by a majority vote of all the disinterested directors or by a majority of the members of a committee of two or more disinterested directors appointed by vote; (b)&nbsp;by special legal counsel selected by a
majority vote of all the disinterested directors or by a majority of the members of a committee of two or more disinterested directors appointed by vote; (c)&nbsp;if there are fewer than two disinterested directors, selected by the board of
directors, in which selection directors who do not qualify as disinterested directors may participate; or (d)&nbsp;by the shareholders (but shares owned by or voted under the control of a disinterested director may not be voted on the
determination). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Independent is not obligated under its articles of organization to indemnify or advance expenses to a director or officer
of a predecessor of Independent, pertaining to conduct with respect to the predecessor, unless otherwise specifically provided. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Independent&#146;s articles provide that no amendment or repeal of the indemnification provision of its bylaws or of the relevant provisions
of Chapter 156D shall affect or diminish the rights of any indemnified person to indemnification with respect to any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any actions occurring prior to the final adoption of the amendment or repeal.
Independent&#146;s articles of organization provide that no amendment or repeal of the provision limiting the liability of directors shall adversely affect the rights and protections afforded to directors of Independent for acts or omissions
occurring prior to the amendment or repeal. </P>

the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against
