PRO FORMA FINANCIAL DATA
 
The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements present the pro forma combined financial position and results of operations of the combined company based upon the historical consolidated financial statements of 1st Constitution Bancorp (“1st Constitution”) and Rumson-Fair Haven Bank and Trust Company (“Rumson”), after giving effect to the merger and adjustments described in the accompanying footnotes. The acquisition by 1st Constitution of Rumson has been accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). Under this method, Rumson's assets and liabilities as of the date of the acquisition have been recorded at their respective fair values and added to those of 1st Constitution. Any excess of the purchase price for Rumson and the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired has been recorded as goodwill. The consolidated financial statements of 1st Constitution issued after the acquisition will reflect the results attributable to the acquired operations of Rumson since February 7, 2014, the date of completion of the acquisition. The merger has been effected by the issuance of shares of 1st Constitution common stock and cash paid to Rumson shareholders.
 
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information provides that each share of Rumson common stock was exchanged for either 0.7772 shares of 1st Constitution common stock or $7.50 in cash.   All shareholder elections were subject to allocation and proration procedures set forth in the merger agreement which are intended to ensure that, in the aggregate, the total cash consideration was $14,670,342 (excluding the cash out of outstanding stock options and fractional shares). The shares of 1st Constitution common stock that were issued as illustrated in these pro forma condensed combined financial statements were recorded at $10.95 per share, the closing sale price of 1st Constitution common stock on February 7, 2014.  Former Rumson security holders received approximately 14.5% of the voting stock of the combined company as a result of the merger.
 
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2013 and unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and the year ended December 31, 2012 combine the historical financial statements of 1st Constitution and Rumson. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements give effect to the merger as if it occurred on September 30, 2013 with respect to the pro forma condensed combined balance sheet, and on January 1, 2012 with respect to the pro forma condensed combined statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and for the year ended December 31, 2012. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements were prepared with 1st Constitution treated as the acquirer and Rumson treated as the acquiree under the acquisition method of accounting. Accordingly, the consideration paid by 1st Constitution to complete the merger will be allocated to Rumson’s assets and liabilities based upon their fair values as of the date of completion of the merger. The recorded fair value adjustments made to the acquired assets and liabilities of Rumson are considered preliminary at this time and are subject to change as 1st Constitution finalizes the fair value determinations. There can be no assurance that the final determination will not result in material changes from the amounts presented in these pro forma condensed combined financial statements.
 
1st Constitution anticipates that the merger with Rumson will provide the combined company with financial benefits that include reduced operating expenses. The pro forma information, while helpful in illustrating the financial characteristics of the combined company under one set of assumptions, does not reflect the benefits of expected cost savings or opportunities to earn additional revenue and, accordingly, does not attempt to predict or suggest future results. It also does not necessarily reflect what the historical results of the combined company would have been had the companies been combined during these periods.
 
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been derived from and should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements and the related notes of each of 1st Constitution and Rumson which are incorporated in this document by reference.
 
The unaudited pro forma stockholders’ equity and net income are qualified by the statements set forth under this caption and should not be considered indicative of the market value of 1st Constitution common stock or the actual or future results of operations of 1st Constitution for any period. Actual results may be materially different than the pro forma information presented.

Notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2013 and the Unaudited
Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statements of Income for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2013 and the
Year Ended December 31, 2013.
 
 
1.
Reflects the use of $14,770,000 in cash to fund the cash portion of the merger consideration paid to Rumson’s shareholders at closing.
 
 
2.
Since the carrying value of investment securities available for sale reflects fair value, no adjustment is required on the pro forma condensed combined balance sheet.  The excess of fair value over par value of these securities of $458,000 will be amortized over the weighted average remaining life of these securities and, for purposes of these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, decreased pretax interest income by $324,000 and $432,000 on a pro forma basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and for the year ended December 31, 2012, respectively.
 
 
3.
A $120,000 adjustment was made to reflect the fair value of loans based on current interest rates on loans similar to those in Rumson’s loan portfolio. This adjustment will be amortized over the weighted average life of the affected loans and, for purposes of these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, decreased pretax interest income by $130,000 and $167,000 on a pro forma basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and for the year ended December 31, 2012, respectively.
 
 
4.
A $1,781,000 fair value adjustment was made to reflect a general credit risk fair value adjustment on loans not identified for separate valuation under ASC 310-30.   1st Constitution estimated the general credit risk fair value adjustment (with the assistance of an outside valuation consultant) based on guidance from ASC 820-10 which defines fair value as the price which would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. There is no active observable market for sale information on community bank loans and thus Level 3 fair value procedures were utilized, primarily the use of present value techniques incorporating assumptions which market participants would use in estimating fair values. This adjustment will be amortized over the weighted average life of the affected loans and, for purposes of these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements,  increased pre-tax interest income by $588,000 and $694,000 on a pro forma basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and for the year ended December 31, 2012, respectively.
 
 
5.
A specific credit interest rate fair value adjustment was made as prescribed by ASC 310-30. Accordingly, 1st Constitution reviewed the Rumson loan portfolio on a loan-by-loan basis to determine whether loans met the definition of credit impaired as set forth in ASC 310-30: (1) had there been credit deterioration from the loan's inception until the acquisition date and (2) is it probable that not all of the contractual cash flows will be collected on the loan. 1st Constitution identified 20 loans with an aggregate principal balance of $3,709,000 as being within the scope of ASC 310-30. 1st Constitution estimated the cash flows on each loan either from the expected monthly payments or from the liquidation of the underlying collateral on collateral dependent loans. The present value of these expected cash flows was discounted at an interest rate which 1st Constitution estimated would be used by a market participant under similar circumstances. The aggregate expected cash flows in excess of the acquisition date fair value resulted in an accretable discount amount of $241,000. Such amount will be recognized in income over the expected life of the loans on a yield basis and, for purposes of these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, increased pre-tax interest income by $85,000 and $113,000 on a pro forma basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and for the year ended December 31, 2012, respectively.
 
 
6.
A specific credit fair value adjustment was made as prescribed by ASC 310-30. Accordingly, 1st Constitution reviewed the Rumson loan portfolio on a loan-by-loan basis to determine whether loans met the definition of credit impaired as set forth in ASC 310-30: (1) had there been credit deterioration from the loan's inception until the acquisition date, and (2) is it probable that not all of the contractual cash flows will be collected on the loan. 1st Constitution identified 20 loans with an aggregate principal balance of $3,709,000 as being within the scope of ASC 310-30. 1st Constitution estimated the cash flows on each loan whether they be from expected monthly payments or from the liquidation of the underlying collateral on collateral dependent loans. The contractual cash flows in excess of the aggregate expected cash flows resulted in a credit-related non-accretable discount amount of $854,000.
 
 
7.
An adjustment of $1,734,000 was made to eliminate Rumson’s allowance for loan losses as of September 30, 2013.
 
 
8.
Reflects the write-off of certain fixed assets of Rumson that did not meet the capitalization thresholds of 1st Constitution.
 
 
6

 
 
 
9.
Reflects an adjustment for goodwill arising from the transaction (see above discussion of the acquisition accounting adjustments arising from the transaction).  
 
 
10.
1st Constitution recorded a core deposit intangible of $1,189,000.  A core deposit intangible arises from a financial institution having a deposit base comprised of stable customer relationships.  These deposits are generally at interest rates or on terms that are favorable to the financial institution.  1st Constitution estimated the fair value of the core deposit intangible (with the assistance of an outside valuation consultant) based on guidance from ASC 820-10 which defines fair value as the price which would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. There is no active observable market for sale information on community bank core deposits and thus Level 3 fair value procedures were utilized, primarily the use of the income approach which is based on an analysis of the expected after tax cash flow benefits of the acquired core deposits versus the cost of utilizing an alternative source (brokered deposits) for funding. Core deposits exclude certificates of deposit and other accounts which 1st Constitution judged to be non-core deposits. The cost of core deposits incorporated estimates of the costs of maintaining and supporting the deposits such as interest, branch expenses, personnel, and data processing. This cost was compared to the alternative funding source and the resulting economic benefit was discounted over the expected life of the acquired core deposits using a long-term market-based after-tax rate of return. The core deposit intangible will be amortized over its estimated life on a declining value basis and, for purposes of these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, increased non-interest expense by $162,000 and $216,000 on a pro forma basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and for the year ended December 31, 2012, respectively.  In addition, a reduction of depreciation expense resulting from the aforementioned write-off of fixed assets decreased non-interest expense by $5,000 and $7,000 on a pro forma basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and for the year ended December 31, 2012, respectively.
 
 
11.
This adjustment includes a deferred tax effect of $514,000 on the fair value adjustments related to the transaction using a marginal tax rate of 40%.  1st Constitution is continuing to evaluate any potential adjustment involving any deferred tax asset valuation allowance.  For purposes of these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements there are no adjustments involving any deferred tax asset valuation allowance.
 
 
12.
