[Fox Chase Bank]

Dear Member:

The Board of Directors of Fox Chase Bank has voted unanimously in favor of a plan of reorganization and stock issuance whereby Fox Chase Bank will reorganize from a mutual savings bank into the mutual holding company structure. As a result of the reorganization, Fox Chase Bancorp, Inc. will become the federally chartered parent holding company of Fox Chase Bank, and Fox Chase Bancorp, Inc. will be a majority-owned subsidiary of Fox Chase MHC. We are reorganizing so that Fox Chase Bank will be structured in the form of ownership that we believe will best support the Bank’s future growth.

As part of the reorganization and in furtherance of the Bank’s long-standing commitment to its local community, the Bank intends to establish and fund through a contribution of cash and common stock a charitable foundation to be known as Fox Chase Bank Charitable Foundation. The foundation will be dedicated to the promotion of charitable causes within the communities in which the Bank operates.

To accomplish the reorganization and the establishment of the foundation, your participation is extremely important. On behalf of the Board, I ask that you help us meet our goal by reading the enclosed material and then casting your vote for the plan of reorganization and stock issuance and for the establishment of the foundation and mailing your signed proxy card immediately in the enclosed postage-paid envelope marked “PROXY RETURN.” If you have an IRA or other Qualified Retirement Plan account for which Fox Chase Bank acts as trustee and we do not receive a proxy from you, Fox Chase Bank, as trustee for such account, intends to vote for the plan of reorganization and stock issuance and for the establishment of the foundation on your behalf. If you have more than one account, you may receive more than one proxy. Please vote by returning all proxy cards received.

If the plan of reorganization is approved:

 

    deposit accounts will continue to be federally insured to the same extent permitted by law;

 

    existing deposit accounts and loans will not undergo any change; and

 

    voting for approval will not obligate you to buy any shares of common stock.

As a qualifying account holder, you may take advantage of your nontransferable rights to subscribe for shares of Fox Chase Bancorp, Inc. common stock on a priority basis before the stock is offered to the general public. The enclosed prospectus describes the operations of Fox Chase Bank and the stock offering by Fox Chase Bancorp, Inc. If you wish to subscribe for common stock, please complete the stock order and certification form and mail it, along with full payment for the shares (or appropriate instructions authorizing withdrawal from a deposit account with Fox Chase Bank), to Fox Chase Bancorp, Inc. in the enclosed postage-paid envelope marked “STOCK ORDER RETURN,” or return it to any full service branch office of Fox Chase Bank. Your order must be physically received (not postmarked) by Fox Chase Bank no later than XX:00 p.m., Eastern time, on     day,             XX, 2006. Please read the prospectus carefully before making an investment decision.

If you wish to use funds in your IRA or other qualified plan at Fox Chase Bank to subscribe for common stock, please be aware that federal law requires that such funds first be transferred to a self-directed retirement account with a trustee other than Fox Chase Bank. The transfer of such funds to a new trustee takes time, so please make arrangements as soon as possible.

If you have any questions after reading the enclosed material, please call our conversion center at (XXX) XXX-XXXX, Monday through Friday, between the hours of 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., Eastern time.

About The Common Stock

Investment in common stock involves certain risks. For a discussion of these risks and other factors, investors are urged to read the accompanying prospectus.

 

Q. Who can purchase stock?

 

A. The common stock of Fox Chase Bancorp, Inc. will be offered in the subscription offering in the following order of priority:

 

  1) Eligible Account Holders - depositors of Fox Chase Bank with accounts totaling $50 or more on December 31, 2004;

 

  2) Fox Chase Bancorp, Inc.’s employee stock ownership plan;

 

  3) Supplemental Eligible Account Holders - depositors of Fox Chase Bank with accounts totaling $50 or more on June 30, 2006; and

 

  4) Other Members - depositors of Fox Chase Bank with accounts on              XX, 2006 and borrowers as of November 12, 1997 who continue to be borrowers on              XX, 2006.

Upon completion of the subscription offering, common stock that is not sold in the subscription offering, if any, will be offered first to certain members of the general public in a community offering, with a preference to residents in counties in which we maintain a banking office, and then, to the extent any shares remain, to the general public in a syndicated community offering and/or an underwritten public offering.

 

Q. Am I guaranteed to receive shares by placing an order?

 

A. No. It is possible that orders received during the offering period will exceed the number of shares being sold. Such an oversubscription would result in shares being allocated among subscribers starting with subscribers who are Eligible Account Holders. If the offering is oversubscribed in the subscription offering, no orders received in the community offering will be filled.


Q. Will any account I hold with the Bank be converted into stock?

 

A. No. All accounts remain as they were prior to the reorganization.

 

Q. How many shares of stock are being offered, and at what price?

 

A. Fox Chase Bancorp, Inc. is offering for sale a maximum of 5,561,596 shares of common stock at a subscription price of $10 per share. Under certain circumstances, Fox Chase Bancorp, Inc, may increase the maximum and sell up to 6,395,835 shares.

 

Q. How much stock can I purchase?

 

A. The minimum purchase is $250 (25 shares). As more fully discussed in the plan of reorganization and stock issuance and described in the prospectus, the maximum purchase by any person in the subscription or community offering is $150,000 (15,000 shares); no person by himself or herself, with an associate or group of persons acting in concert, may purchase more than $200,000 (20,000 shares) of common stock offered in the offering.

 

Q. How do I order stock?

 

A. You may subscribe for shares of common stock by completing and returning the stock order and certification form, together with your payment, either in person to any full service branch office of Fox Chase Bank or by mail in the postage-paid envelope marked “STOCK ORDER RETURN.” Stock order forms may not be delivered to a walk- up or drive- through window located at any of the Bank’s branch offices.

 

Q. How can I pay for my shares of stock?

 

A. You can pay for the common stock by check, cash, money order or withdrawal from your deposit account at Fox Chase Bank. Withdrawals from a deposit account or a certificate of deposit at the Bank to buy common stock may be made without penalty. If you choose to pay by cash, you must deliver the stock order and certification form and payment in person to any full service branch office of Fox Chase Bank and it will be converted to a bank check or money order. Please do not send cash in the mail.

 

Q. When is the deadline to subscribe for stock?

 

A. An executed stock order form with the required full payment must be physically received (not postmarked) by Fox Chase Bank no later than XX:00 p.m., Eastern time, on      day,              XX, 2006.

 

Q. Can I subscribe for shares using funds in my IRA at Fox Chase Bank?

 

A. Federal regulations do not permit the purchase of common stock with your existing IRA or other qualified plan at Fox Chase Bank. To use such funds to subscribe for common stock, you need to establish a “self directed” trust account with an unaffiliated trustee. Please call our conversion center if you require additional information. The transfer of such funds takes time, so please make arrangements as soon as possible.

 

Q. Can I subscribe for shares and add someone else who is not on my account to my stock registration?

 

A. No. Federal regulations prohibit the transfer of subscription rights. Adding the names of other persons who are not owners of your qualifying account(s) will result in the loss of your subscription rights.

 

Q. Can I subscribe for shares in my name alone if I have a joint account?

 

A. Yes.

 

Q. Will payments for common stock earn interest until the reorganization closes?

 

A. Yes. Any payment made in cash or by check or money order will earn interest at Fox Chase Bank’s passbook savings rate from the date of receipt to the completion or termination of the reorganization. Depositors who elect to pay for their common stock by a withdrawal authorization will receive interest at the contractual rate on the account until the completion or termination of the offering.


Q. Will dividends be paid on the stock?

 

A. Fox Chase Bancorp, Inc intends to adopt a policy of paying regular cash dividends, but it has not yet determined the amount that will be paid or when payments may begin.

 

Q. Will my stock be covered by deposit insurance?

 

A. No.

 

Q. Where will the stock be traded?

 

A. Upon completion of the reorganization our shares of common stock will trade on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “FXCB.”

 

Q. Can I change my mind after I place an order to subscribe for stock?

 

A. No. After receipt, your order may not be modified or withdrawn.

About The Foundation

 

Q. What is the Fox Chase Bank Charitable Foundation and why is it being established?

 

A. In keeping with the Bank’s long standing commitment to its community, its plan of reorganization and stock issuance provides for the establishment and funding of charitable foundation to be known as Fox Chase Bank Charitable Foundation. The foundation will be dedicated to charitable causes within the communities in which Fox Chase Bank operates.

Office of Thrift Supervision Guidance for Accountholders

Your financial institution is in the process of selling stock to the public, in either a mutual-to-stock conversion or a stock issuance by a subsidiary of a mutual holding company. As an accountholder at this institution, you have certain priority subscription rights to purchase stock in the offering. These priority subscription rights are non-transferable. If you subscribe for stock, you will be asked to sign a statement that the purchase is for your own account, and that you have no agreement or understanding regarding the subsequent sale or transfer of any shares you receive.

On occasion, unscrupulous people attempt to persuade accountholders to transfer subscription rights, or to purchase shares in the offering based on the understanding that the shares will subsequently be transferred to others. Such arrangements violate federal regulations. If you participate in these schemes, you are breaking the law and may be subject to prosecution. If someone attempts to persuade you to participate in such a scheme, please contact the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) at (202) 906-6202. The OTS is very interested in ensuring that the prohibitions on transfer of subscription rights are not violated.

How will you know if you are being approached illegally? Typically, a fraudulent opportunist will approach you and offer to “loan” you money to purchase a significant amount of stock in the offering. In exchange for that “loan” you most likely will be asked either to transfer control of any stock purchased with that money to an account the other person controls, or sell the stock and give the majority of the profits to the other person. You may be told, untruthfully, that there is no risk to you, that the practice is common, and even if you are caught, that your legal expenses will be covered.

Below is a list of some key concepts that you should keep in mind when considering whether to participate in a mutual-to-stock conversion or stock issuance by a mutual holding company subsidiary. If you have questions, please contact the conversion center listed elsewhere in the literature you are receiving. Alternatively, you can contact us at: ombudsman@ots.treas.gov.

What Investors Need to Know

Key concepts for investors to bear in mind when considering whether to participate in a conversion offering, or a stock offering by a subsidiary of a mutual holding company, include the following:

 

    Know the Rules — By law, accountholders cannot sell or transfer their priority subscription rights, or the stock itself, prior to the completion of a financial institution’s conversion. Moreover, accountholders cannot enter into agreements or arrangements to sell or transfer either their subscription rights or the underlying conversion stock.

 

    “Neither a Borrower nor a Lender Be” — If someone offers to lend you money so that you can participate — or participate more fully — in a conversion, be extremely wary. Be even more wary if the source of the money is someone you do not know. The loan agreement may make you unable to certify truthfully that you are the true holder of the subscription rights and the true purchaser of the stock and that you have no agreements regarding the sale or transfer of the stock.

 

    Watch Out for Opportunists — The opportunist may tell you that he or she is a lawyer — or a consultant or a professional investor or some similarly impressive tale — who has experience with similar mutual conversion transactions. The opportunist may go to extreme lengths to assure you that the arrangement you are entering into is legitimate. They might tell you that they have done scores of these transactions and that this is simply how they work. Or they might downplay the warnings or restrictions in the prospectus or order form, telling you that “everyone” enters into such agreements or that the deal they are offering is legitimate. They may also tell you that you have no risk in the transaction. The cold, hard truth is that these are lies, and if you participate, you are breaking the law.

 

    Get the Facts from the Source — If you have any questions about the securities offering, ask the savings bank or savings association for more information. If you have any doubts about a transaction proposed to you by someone else, ask the financial institution whether the proposed arrangement is proper. You may be able to find helpful resources on the institution’s website or by visiting a branch office.

 

       The bottom line for investors is always to remember that if an opportunity sounds too good to be true, it probably is too good to be true.

The Board of Directors of Fox Chase Bank has voted unanimously in favor of a plan of reorganization and stock issuance whereby Fox Chase Bank will reorganize from a mutual savings bank into the mutual holding company structure. As a result of the reorganization, Fox Chase Bancorp, Inc. will become the federally chartered parent holding company of Fox Chase Bank, and Fox Chase Bancorp, Inc. will be a majority-owned subsidiary of Fox Chase MHC. We are reorganizing so that Fox Chase Bank will be structured in the form of ownership that we believe will best support the Bank’s future growth.

To learn more about the stock offering you are cordially invited to join members of our senior management team at a community meeting to be held on      at         :00    .    .

A member of our staff will be calling to confirm your interest in attending the meeting.

If you would like additional information regarding the meeting or our reorganization, please call our conversion center at (XXX) XXX-XXXX, Monday through Friday between the hours of 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Eastern time. Please note that the conversion center will be closed from 12:00 noon Friday, September 1 through 12:00 noon Tuesday, September 5, in observance of the Labor Day holiday.

Sincerely,

Thomas M. Petro

President and Chief Executive Officer
