Center Bancorp, Inc., a New Jersey corporation (&ldquo;<U>Center Bancorp</U>&rdquo; or &ldquo;<U>Center</U>&rdquo;), entered into
an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the &ldquo;<U>Merger Agreement</U>&rdquo;) with ConnectOne Bancorp, Inc., a New Jersey corporation
(&ldquo;<U>ConnectOne Bancorp</U>&rdquo;). The Merger Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set
forth therein, ConnectOne Bancorp will merge with and into Center Bancorp, with Center Bancorp continuing as the surviving corporation
(the &ldquo;<U>Merger</U>&rdquo;), and Center Bancorp will change its name to ConnectOne Bancorp. The Merger Agreement also provides
that immediately following the consummation of the Merger, Union Center National Bank, a commercial bank chartered pursuant to
the laws of the United States (&ldquo;<U>Union Center</U>&rdquo;) and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Center Bancorp, will merge with
and into ConnectOne Bank, a New Jersey-chartered commercial bank (&ldquo;<U>ConnectOne Bank</U>&rdquo;) and a wholly-owned subsidiary
of ConnectOne Bancorp, with ConnectOne Bank continuing as the surviving bank (the &ldquo;<U>Bank Merger</U>&rdquo; and, collectively
with the &ldquo;Merger,&rdquo; the &ldquo;<U>Mergers</U>&rdquo;). The Merger Agreement was approved by the Boards of Directors
of each of Center Bancorp and ConnectOne Bancorp at meetings held on January 20, 2014.</P>

and conditions of the Merger Agreement, upon completion of the Merger (the &ldquo;<U>Effective Time</U>&rdquo;), each share of
common stock, no par value per share, of ConnectOne Bancorp (&ldquo;<U>ConnectOne Common Stock</U>&rdquo;), issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the Effective Time will be converted into and become the right to receive 2.6 shares of common stock, no par
value per share, of Center Bancorp (&ldquo;<U>Center Common Stock</U>&rdquo;) (such shares, the &ldquo;<U>Per Share Stock Consideration</U>&rdquo;
and the ratio of such number to one, the &ldquo;<U>Exchange Ratio</U>&rdquo;) Also at the Effective Time (i) all shares of ConnectOne
Common Stock owned by ConnectOne Bancorp as treasury stock and (ii) all shares of ConnectOne Common Stock owned directly or indirectly

which New Stock Options shall be identical to the Old Stock Options in all material respects, except that (i) upon exercise of
the New Stock Options, the optionholder will receive Center Common Stock rather than ConnectOne Common Stock, (ii) the number of
shares of Center Common Stock covered by each New Stock Option shall equal the number of shares of ConnectOne Common Stock covered
by the corresponding Old Stock Option multiplied by the Exchange Ratio (rounded up or down to the nearest whole share, with .50
being rounded down), (iii) the exercise price of each New Stock Option shall equal the exercise price applicable to the corresponding
Old Stock Option divided by the Exchange Ratio (rounded up or down to the nearest whole cent, with .50 being rounded up) and (iv)
the committee that administers the plan by which such New Stock Options are governed shall be the compensation committee of the
Board of Directors of Center Bancorp. In all other material respects, the New Stock Options shall be governed by the terms of the
equity compensation plans under which they were originally granted. All other ConnectOne equity awards outstanding immediately
prior to the Effective Time will vest in full immediately prior to the Effective Time. All Center Bancorp restricted shares that
are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will vest in full immediately prior to the Effective Time. Absent grant
or employment agreements that provide otherwise, Center stock options that are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time
will remain unchanged.</P>

Center Bancorp and Union Center&rsquo;s President and Chief Executive Officer, entered into an Agreement, dated January 20, 2014
(the &ldquo;<U>New Agreement</U>&rdquo;), with Center Bancorp and Union Center, which will become effective upon the Effective

Agreement, dated December 2, 2010 (the &ldquo;<U>Current Non-Compete</U>&rdquo;), and an Employment Agreement, dated as of April
4, 2012 (the &ldquo;<U>Current Employment Agreement</U>&rdquo; and, collectively with the Current Non-Compete, the &ldquo;<U>Current
Agreements</U>&rdquo;). (The Current Agreements have previously been filed by Center Bancorp with the SEC as exhibits to Center

Agreement will not become effective and the Current Agreements will remain in full force and effect.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">The New Agreement provides
that beginning at the Effective Time, Mr. Weagley will serve as Chief Operating Officer of the surviving corporation and the surviving
bank. As described in the New Agreement, he will be an employee &ldquo;at will.&rdquo; While employed, Mr. Weagley will be paid
a base salary of $35,000 per month. In the New Agreement, the parties agreed and acknowledged that consummation of the transactions
contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the change in Mr. Weagley&rsquo;s position with the surviving corporation will constitute
a &ldquo;Terminating Event&rdquo; as defined in Section 5(c) of his Current Employment Agreement, entitling him to a payment of
$1,679,790 thereunder upon the earlier of Mr. Weagley&rsquo;s separation from service at any time and for any reason (with or without
cause and even if the separation from service is due to disability or death) following the Effective Time or upon the one year
anniversary of the Effective Time. Such payment will be made in accordance with the terms of Mr. Weagley&rsquo;s Current Employment
Agreement, specifically including the six (6) month delay in payment, if applicable, following a termination of employment. In
addition, Mr. Weagley will be entitled to receive the sum of $75,414 payable in 12 equal installments over the 12 months immediately
following his separation from service in accordance with the regular payroll practices of the surviving corporation, and all unvested
restricted stock awards and/or unvested stock options held by him shall become fully vested upon his separation from service for
any reason (with or without cause and even if the separation from service is due to disability or death) at any time within the
twelve (12) months immediately following the Effective Time. Upon the Effective Time, the surviving corporation will waive its
right to require Mr. Weagley to render consulting services under the Current Employment Agreement, and the Current Employment Agreement
shall be deemed terminated.</P>

Merger; difficulties and delays in integrating the Center and ConnectOne businesses or fully realizing cost savings and other benefits;

which have been examined by the Internal Revenue Service (the &ldquo;<B>IRS</B>&rdquo;) or the appropriate state, local or foreign
Tax authority have been resolved and either no deficiencies were asserted as a result of such examinations or any asserted deficiencies
have been paid in full and reflected in the Company Financial Statements. Except as set forth in <U>Section 3.10(a)</U> of the
Company Disclosure Schedule, there are no current, pending or, to the Knowledge of the Company, threatened actions, audits, or
examinations by any Governmental Entity responsible for the collection or imposition of Taxes with respect to the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries, or any pending judicial Tax proceedings or any other Tax disputes, assessments or claims. Except as set forth
in <U>Section 3.10(a)</U> of the Company Disclosure Schedule, as of the date of this Agreement, neither the Company nor any of
its Subsidiaries has received (i) a request for information related to Tax matters, or (ii) a notice of deficiency or proposed
adjustment for any amount of Tax proposed, asserted or assessed by any Governmental Entity responsible for the collection or imposition
of Taxes with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. The Company has made available to Parent true and complete copies
of the United States federal, state, local and foreign income Tax Returns filed by the Company or its Subsidiaries and all examination
reports and statements of deficiency assessed against or agreed to by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries since December 31,
2009. There are no material Liens with respect to any Taxes upon any of the Company&rsquo;s or its Subsidiaries&rsquo; assets,
other than Permitted Liens. No claim has ever been made by any Governmental Entity in a jurisdiction where the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries does not file Tax Returns that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is or may be subject to taxation by that
jurisdiction. <B> </B></P>

reports and statements of deficiency assessed against or agreed to by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries since December 31, 2009.
There are no material Liens with respect to any Taxes upon any of Parent&rsquo;s or its Subsidiaries&rsquo; assets, other than
Permitted Liens. No claim has ever been made by any Governmental Entity in a jurisdiction where Parent or any of its Subsidiaries
does not file Tax Returns that Parent or any of its Subsidiaries is or may be subject to taxation by that jurisdiction. <B> </B></P>

judgment of the management of Parent adequate for the business engaged in by Parent and its Subsidiaries. Parent and its Subsidiaries
have not received any notice of cancellation or notice of a material amendment of any such insurance policy or bond and are not
in default under any such policy or bond, no coverage thereunder is being disputed and all material claims thereunder have been
filed in a timely fashion. <U>Section 4.16(f)</U> of the Parent Disclosure Schedule sets forth a complete and accurate list of
all primary and excess insurance coverage held by Parent and/or its Subsidiaries currently or at any time during the past three
years. Copies of all insurance policies reflected on such list have been provided to the Company. Neither Parent nor any of its
Subsidiaries has received any written notice that there are any pending actions or claims against the Parent Property, Parent or
any of its Subsidiaries, whether or not such claims or actions are covered by insurance. None of the insurance policies maintained
by Parent or its Subsidiaries constitute self-insured fronting policies or are subject to retrospective premium adjustments. Any
pending claims that Parent or its Subsidiaries have made for insurance have been acknowledged for coverage by the applicable insurer.</P>

Every shareholder may authorize another person or persons to act for him by proxy in all matters in which a shareholder is entitled
to participate, whether by waiving notice of any meeting, objecting to or voting or participating at a meeting, or expressing consent
or dissent without a meeting. Every proxy must be signed by the shareholder or by his attorney-in-fact. No proxy shall be voted
or acted upon after eleven months from its date unless such proxy provides for a longer period. A duly executed proxy shall be
irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and, if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law
to support an irrevocable power. A proxy may be made irrevocable regardless of whether the interest with which it is coupled is
an interest in the stock itself or an interest in the corporation generally. The authorization of a proxy may but need not be limited
to specified action, provided, however, that if a proxy limits its authorization to a meeting or meetings of shareholders, unless
otherwise specifically provided such proxy shall entitle the holder thereof to vote at any adjourned session but shall not be valid
after the final adjournment thereof.</P>

shall take and sign an oath faithfully to execute the duties of inspector at such meeting with strict impartiality and according
to the best of his ability. The inspectors, if any, shall determine the number of shares of stock outstanding and the voting power
of each, the shares of stock represented at the meeting, the existence of a quorum, the validity and effect of proxies, and shall
receive votes, ballots or consents, hear and determine all challenges and questions arising in connection with the right to vote,
count and tabulate all votes, ballots or consents, determine the result, and do such acts as are proper to conduct the election
or vote with fairness to all shareholders. On request of the person presiding at the meeting, the inspectors shall make a report
in writing of any challenge, question or matter determined by them and execute a certificate of any fact found by them.</P>

at the annual meeting shall elect the number of directors as determined. Within the foregoing limits, the number of directors may
be increased at any time or from time to time by the shareholders or by the directors by vote of a majority of the directors then
in office. The number of directors may be decreased to any number permitted by the foregoing at any time either by the shareholders
or by the directors by vote of a majority of the directors then in office, but only to eliminate vacancies existing by reason of
the death, resignation or removal of one or more directors. Notwithstanding the forgoing, until the 2017 annual meeting of shareholders,
the entire Board Directors shall be made up of twelve (12) members, six (6) of whom (the &ldquo;Former ConnectOne Directors&rdquo;)
shall have served as members of the Board of Directors of ConnectOne Bancorp, Inc. (&ldquo;ConnectOne&rdquo;) prior to the merger
of ConnectOne and the corporation (the &ldquo;Merger&rdquo;), and six (6) of whom (the &ldquo;Former Pre-Merger Center Directors&rdquo;)

of shareholders, in the event any director of the corporation ceases service on the Board of Directors for any reason, the individual
nominated to replace such director shall be an individual who constitutes a Legacy Nominee. For purposes of these by-laws, (A)
in the event that a Former ConnectOne Director ceases service on the Board, the term &ldquo;Legacy Director&rdquo; shall mean an
individual selected by a majority of the Former ConnectOne Directors then serving on the Board (including anyone who became a Legacy
Director as a result of the cessation of service of a Former ConnectOne Director) and then approved by a vote of two-thirds of
the entire Board, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, and (B) in the event that a Former Pre-Merger Center Director
ceases service on the Board, the term &ldquo;Legacy Director&rdquo; shall mean an individual selected by a majority of the Former
Pre-Merger Center Directors then serving on the Board (including anyone who became a Legacy Director as a result of the cessation
of service of a Former Pre-Merger Center Director) and then approved by a vote of two-thirds of the entire Board, such approval
not to be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a replacement director cannot be selected by
means of this process after a good faith attempt to do so, &nbsp;the Board, by a vote of two-thirds of the entire Board, shall
select an individual to replace the director who has left the board.</P>

The Shareholder hereby constitutes and appoints<B> </B>the President of Parent, with full power of substitution, as the Shareholder&rsquo;s
proxy with respect to the matters set forth herein, including without limitation, each of the matters described in Sections 2.1
and 2.3 of this Agreement, and hereby authorizes such proxy to represent and to vote, if and only if the Shareholder (i)&nbsp;fails
to vote or (ii)&nbsp;attempts to vote (whether by proxy, in person or by written consent) in a manner that is inconsistent with
the terms of this Agreement, all of such Shareholder&rsquo;s Owned Shares in the manner contemplated by Sections 2.1 and 2.3 of
this Agreement. The proxy granted pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence is given to induce Parent to execute the Merger
Agreement and, as such, is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable unless and until this Agreement or any such rights
granted hereunder terminate or expire pursuant to the terms hereof. The Shareholder hereby revokes any and all previous proxies
with respect to the Shareholder&rsquo;s Owned Shares and shall not hereafter, unless and until this Agreement or any rights granted
hereunder terminate or expire pursuant to the terms hereof, purport to grant any other proxy or power of attorney with respect
to any of the Shareholder&rsquo;s Owned Shares, deposit any of the Shareholder&rsquo;s Owned Shares into a voting trust or enter

The parties hereto agree that irreparable harm would occur in the event that any of the agreements and provisions of this Agreement
were not performed fully by the parties hereto in accordance with their specific terms or conditions or were otherwise breached,
and that money damages are an inadequate remedy for breach of this Agreement because of the difficulty of ascertaining and quantifying
the amount of damage that will be suffered by the parties hereto in the event that this Agreement is not performed in accordance
with its terms or conditions or is otherwise breached. It is accordingly hereby agreed that the parties hereto shall be entitled
to an injunction or injunctions to restrain, enjoin and prevent breaches of this Agreement by the other parties and to enforce
specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court referred to in Section 3.1 hereof, such remedy being in addition to,
and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies to which the other parties are entitled to at law or in equity.</P>

Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby. Each party hereto (a) certifies that no representative of any other party hereto
has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of any suit, action or other proceeding,
seek to enforce that foregoing waiver and (b) acknowledges that it and the other parties hereto have been induced to enter into
this Agreement, by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 3.8.</P>

and exercisability of an Option if, at the time an Optionee ceases to serve on the Board for any reason (other than cause), the
Optionee is appointed by the Board to serve on an Advisory Board and continues service with the Company by serving on an Advisory
Board. In the event that an Optionee ceases to serve on the Board for any reason other than cause, death, disability, resignation
or Retirement and either does not serve on an Advisory Board or serves on an Advisory Board and then ceases to serve on an Advisory
Board for any reason other than cause, death, disability or resignation, such Optionee&rsquo;s Options shall automatically terminate
three months after the date on which such service (on the Board, or if such Optionee then serves on an Advisory Board, on such
Advisory Board) terminates, but in any event not later than the date on which such Options would terminate pursuant to Section

Board), resigns from an Advisory Board or is removed from the Board or an Advisory Board by means of a resolution which recites
that the Optionee is being removed solely for cause, such Optionee's Options shall automatically terminate on the date such removal
or resignation is effective. In the event that an Optionee ceases to serve on the Board or an Advisory Board by reason of death
or disability, an Option exercisable by such Optionee shall terminate one year after the date of death or disability of the Optionee,
but in any event not later than the date on which such Options would terminate pursuant to Section 7(c). In the event that an Optionee

death, disability or resignation (or does not serve on an Advisory Board), an Option exercisable by such Optionee shall terminate
on the later of one year after the date of Retirement of the Optionee or three months after the date of termination of the Optionee&rsquo;s
service on an Advisory Board, but in any event not later than the date on which such Options would terminate pursuant to Section
7(c). During such time after death, an Option may only be exercised by the Optionee's personal representative, executor or administrator,
as the case may be. No exercise permitted by this Section 10 shall entitle an Optionee or such Optionee&rsquo;s personal representative,
executor or administrator to exercise any portion of any Option beyond the extent to which such Option is exercisable pursuant
to Section 8 hereof on the date such Optionee ceases to provide services to the Company. For avoidance of doubt, no person shall
be granted any Options under this Plan while such person serves on an Advisory Board; the sole effects of service on an Advisory
Board under this Plan shall be continued vesting and exercisability of outstanding Options in accordance with the terms of this

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Based on financial results as of December 31, 2013, the combined

without limitation statements regarding the pro forma effect of the proposed transaction, annual cost savings, anticipated expense
totals, the accretive nature of the proposed transaction, revenue enhancement opportunities, anticipated capital ratios and capital,
positioning, value creation, growth prospects and timing of the closing) constitute forward looking statements within the meaning

&quot;should,&quot; &quot;could&quot; or &quot;may&quot;, or by variations of such words or by similar expressions. Such forward-looking
statements include, but are not limited to, statements about the benefits of the business combination transaction involving Center
and ConnectOne, including future financial and operating results, and the combined company's plans, objectives, expectations and
intentions. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties which change over time.
Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Center and ConnectOne assume no duty to update forward-looking

merger; difficulties and delays in integrating the Center and ConnectOne businesses or fully realizing cost savings and other benefits;
business disruption following the proposed transaction; changes in asset quality and credit risk; the inability to sustain revenue
and earnings growth; changes in interest rates and capital markets; inflation; customer borrowing, repayment, investment and deposit
practices; customer disintermediation; the introduction, withdrawal, success and timing of business initiatives; competitive conditions;
the inability to realize cost savings or revenues or to implement integration plans and other consequences associated with mergers,
acquisitions and divestitures; economic conditions; changes in Center's stock price before closing, including as a result of the
financial performance of ConnectOne prior to closing; the reaction to the transaction of the companies' customers, employees and
counterparties; and the impact, extent and timing of technological changes, capital management activities, and other actions of
the Federal Reserve Board and legislative and regulatory actions and reforms.</P>

savings and other benefits; business disruption following the proposed transaction; changes in asset quality and credit risk; the
inability to sustain revenue and earnings growth; changes in interest rates and capital markets; inflation; customer borrowing,
repayment, investment and deposit practices; customer disintermediation; the introduction, withdrawal, success and timing of business
initiatives; competitive conditions; the inability to realize cost savings or revenues or to implement integration plans and other
consequences associated with mergers, acquisitions and divestitures; economic conditions; changes in Center's stock price before
closing, including as a result of the financial performance of ConnectOne prior to closing; the reaction to the transaction of
the companies' customers, employees and counterparties; and the impact, extent and timing of technological changes, capital management
