Coming off a very strong quarter and year. 2018 uncertainty carries into 2019: Highly competitive environment for commercial loans and core deposits. High deposit betas. Stock market volatility. Uncertain Fed activity / macroeconomic indicators. Priorities include: Continued caution, discipline, and focus while executing our strategy – Expanding Our Reach. Expand NIM principally through loan portfolio remix. Continued focus on building out our wealth management business, organically and through acquisition. Effective use of capital to benefit shareholder return (growth, acquisition, dividend, stock repurchase). Current Conditions

Slide 4

Managed our balance sheet with a $131 million, fixed-rate multifamily loan sale: Average coupon 3.28%. $4.4 million pre-tax loss. Replaced with higher yielding, largely floating rate or short duration loans with an average coupon of 4.78%. Project full loss recapture in approximately 2 years. Deposit growth of $236 million was the principal funding source for net loan growth (+$129MM), elimination of overnight borrowings (-$95MM), and an increase in balance sheet liquidity (+$44MM). Loan to deposit ratio of 101% (vs. 104% at 09/30/2018). C&I loans (including equipment finance) increased by $217 million, and now comprise 35% of the total loan portfolio. NIM increased to 2.72% from 2.69% in the prior quarter. Quarterly Recap

Slide 5

Reported EPS – $0.55 (Core $0.59)1 Reported ROA – 0.96% (Core 1.02%)1 Reported ROE – 9.32% (Core 9.89%)1 Non-interest income comprised 28% of total revenue driven by wealth management fee income, which totaled 21% of total revenue and increased 14% compared to Q4 2017. Peapack Private Wealth Management’s AUM/AUA totaled $5.8 billion. 2018 client inflows of managed AUMs exceeded $400 million. Tangible equity to tangible assets was 9.52% at quarter end.2 The Bank’s Regulatory Tier I Leverage Ratio was 11.32% and its Total Capital to Risk Weighted Assets Ratio was 14.59% for the quarter. CRE concentration reduced to 394% of total capital from 416% at 09/30/2018 and 466% at 12/31/2017. Quarterly Recap 1 See Non-GAAP financial measures on page 35. 2 Tangible book value per share is calculated by dividing tangible equity by period end common shares outstanding. See Non-GAAP financial measures on page 36.

Slide 6

Attractive geographic franchise. Wealth management fee income provides a stable and predictable revenue stream over time. Well positioned for additional wealth acquisitions that are immediately accretive to earnings. Ongoing shift in loan mix to C&I, including equipment finance, will positively impact NIM. Highly efficient branch network with an efficient cost structure that enables deposit pricing flexibility in the current market environment. Compelling valuation at current share price.
