September 19, 2012, Alliance Bank (the &ldquo;Bank&rdquo;), the wholly owned subsidiary of Alliance Bancorp, Inc. of Pennsylvania
(the &ldquo;Company or the &ldquo;Registrant&rdquo;), entered into amended and restated employment agreements with Dennis D. Cirucci,
President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Bank, Peter J. Meier, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial
Officer of the Company and the Bank, and Suzanne J. Ricci, Senior Vice President and Chief Technology Officer of the Company and
the Bank. In addition, on September 19, 2012, the Bank entered into an employment agreement with William T. McGrath, Senior Vice
President and Chief Lending Officer of the Company and the Bank (the amended and restated employment agreements between the Bank
and Messrs. Cirucci and Meier and Ms. Ricci and the employment agreement between the Bank and Mr. McGrath are collectively referred
to herein as the &ldquo;Employment Agreements&rdquo;).</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">The Employment Agreement
with Mr. Cirucci has a term of three years and the Employment Agreements for Messrs. Meier and McGrath and Ms. Ricci have a term
of two years. The terms are extended annually unless either the Bank or the executive gives notice at least 60 days prior to the
annual anniversary date that the Employment Agreement shall not be extended. Under the terms of the Employment Agreements, the
executives receive an initial annual base salary which is reviewed from time to time by the board of directors of the Bank. The
Employment Agreements provide for a minimum annual salary of $300,000, $191,000, $172,000 and $155,000 for Messrs. Cirucci, Meier
and McGrath and Ms. Ricci, respectively. The executives are entitled to participate in the Bank's benefit plans and programs and
receive reimbursement for reasonable business expenses. Each of the Employment Agreements is terminable with or without cause by
the Bank. The executives have no right to compensation or other benefits pursuant to the Employment Agreements for any period after
voluntary termination by the executive or termination by the Bank for cause, as defined in the agreement. In the event of the executive&rsquo;s
termination due to retirement or disability, the Bank will continue to provide life, medical, dental and disability coverage for
the remaining term of the Employment Agreement. In the event of the executive&rsquo;s death during the term of the agreement, the
Bank will continue to provide medical and dental coverage to the executive's surviving spouse until age 65. In each case, if the
insurance coverage either cannot be provided or would trigger the payment of certain excise taxes, then the Bank shall pay a lump
sum cash equivalency amount to the executive.</P>

of certain adverse actions taken by the Bank or (2) the executive&rsquo;s employment is terminated by the Bank other than for cause,
disability, retirement or death, Mr. Cirucci will be entitled to a lump sum cash severance payment equal to three times (two times
in the case of Mr. Meier and one times in the case of Mr. McGrath and Ms. Ricci) his average annual compensation, as defined in
the agreement. In addition, the executive would be entitled to receive continued coverage under all life, medical, disability and
other group insurance plans offered by the Bank until the earlier of the expiration of the remaining term of the Employment Agreement
or subsequent full-time employment in the case of Messrs. Cirucci and Meier (or until the earlier of one year from the date of
termination or subsequent full-time employment in the case of Ms. Ricci and Mr. McGrath), provided that in each case a lump cash
equivalency amount will be paid to the executive if such coverage either cannot be provided or would trigger the payment of certain
excise taxes. Each executive would also be entitled to receive a lump sum cash payment equal to the projected cost of providing
benefits under certain other benefit plans to the executive for the remaining term of the Employment Agreement.</P>

Meier will be entitled to the same payments and benefits set forth above if their employment is terminated in connection with or
following a change in control either by the Bank for other than cause, disability, retirement or death or by the executive as a
result of certain adverse actions taken by the Bank. If the employment of Ms. Ricci or Mr. McGrath is terminated in connection
with or within 24 months following a change in control for any of the reasons set forth in the preceding sentence, then such executive
will be entitled to the following: a lump sum cash severance payment equal to two times his or her average annual compensation,
as defined, (2) continued insurance coverage until the earlier of two years from the date of termination or subsequent full-time
employment, with a lump sum cash equivalency amount to be paid if such coverage either cannot be provided or would trigger the

is defined in the Employment Agreements to mean a change in the ownership of the Company or the Bank, a change in the effective
control of the Company or the Bank or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company or the Bank,
in each case as provided under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations thereunder.</P>

with Messrs. Cirucci and Meier provide that if any of the payments or benefits to be provided thereunder or otherwise upon termination
of employment are deemed to constitute a &ldquo;parachute payment&rdquo; within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue
Code, which would cause the executive to incur an excise tax under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code, then the Bank shall
pay the executive an amount such that after payment of all federal, state and local income tax and any additional excise tax, the
executive will be fully reimbursed for the amount of such excise tax. The Employment Agreements with Mr. McGrath and Ms. Ricci
provide that if any of the payments or benefits to be provided thereunder or otherwise upon termination of employment are deemed
to constitute a &ldquo;parachute payment&rdquo; within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code, then the payments
and benefits shall be reduced by the minimum amount necessary so that no excise taxes are triggered under Section 4999 of the Internal
Revenue Code.</P>

Officers
(e)          On
September 19, 2012, Alliance Bank (the "Bank"), the wholly owned subsidiary of Alliance Bancorp, Inc. of Pennsylvania
(the "Company or the "Registrant"), entered into amended and restated employment agreements with Dennis D. Cirucci,
President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Bank, Peter J. Meier, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial
Officer of the Company and the Bank, and Suzanne J. Ricci, Senior Vice President and Chief Technology Officer of the Company and
the Bank. In addition, on September 19, 2012, the Bank entered into an employment agreement with William T. McGrath, Senior Vice
President and Chief Lending Officer of the Company and the Bank (the amended and restated employment agreements between the Bank
and Messrs. Cirucci and Meier and Ms. Ricci and the employment agreement between the Bank and Mr. McGrath are collectively referred
to herein as the "Employment Agreements").
The Employment Agreement
with Mr. Cirucci has a term of three years and the Employment Agreements for Messrs. Meier and McGrath and Ms. Ricci have a term
of two years. The terms are extended annually unless either the Bank or the executive gives notice at least 60 days prior to the
annual anniversary date that the Employment Agreement shall not be extended. Under the terms of the Employment Agreements, the
executives receive an initial annual base salary which is reviewed from time to time by the board of directors of the Bank. The
Employment Agreements provide for a minimum annual salary of $300,000, $191,000, $172,000 and $155,000 for Messrs. Cirucci, Meier
and McGrath and Ms. Ricci, respectively. The executives are entitled to participate in the Bank's benefit plans and programs and
receive reimbursement for reasonable business expenses. Each of the Employment Agreements is terminable with or without cause by
the Bank. The executives have no right to compensation or other benefits pursuant to the Employment Agreements for any period after
voluntary termination by the executive or termination by the Bank for cause, as defined in the agreement. In the event of the executive's
termination due to retirement or disability, the Bank will continue to provide life, medical, dental and disability coverage for
the remaining term of the Employment Agreement. In the event of the executive's death during the term of the agreement, the
Bank will continue to provide medical and dental coverage to the executive's surviving spouse until age 65. In each case, if the
insurance coverage either cannot be provided or would trigger the payment of certain excise taxes, then the Bank shall pay a lump
sum cash equivalency amount to the executive.
1
In the event that outside
of a change in control, as defined in the Employment Agreements, (1) the executive terminates his or her employment as a result
of certain adverse actions taken by the Bank or (2) the executive's employment is terminated by the Bank other than for cause,
disability, retirement or death, Mr. Cirucci will be entitled to a lump sum cash severance payment equal to three times (two times
in the case of Mr. Meier and one times in the case of Mr. McGrath and Ms. Ricci) his average annual compensation, as defined in
the agreement. In addition, the executive would be entitled to receive continued coverage under all life, medical, disability and
other group insurance plans offered by the Bank until the earlier of the expiration of the remaining term of the Employment Agreement
or subsequent full-time employment in the case of Messrs. Cirucci and Meier (or until the earlier of one year from the date of
termination or subsequent full-time employment in the case of Ms. Ricci and Mr. McGrath), provided that in each case a lump cash
equivalency amount will be paid to the executive if such coverage either cannot be provided or would trigger the payment of certain
excise taxes. Each executive would also be entitled to receive a lump sum cash payment equal to the projected cost of providing
benefits under certain other benefit plans to the executive for the remaining term of the Employment Agreement.
Messrs. Cirucci and
Meier will be entitled to the same payments and benefits set forth above if their employment is terminated in connection with or
following a change in control either by the Bank for other than cause, disability, retirement or death or by the executive as a
result of certain adverse actions taken by the Bank. If the employment of Ms. Ricci or Mr. McGrath is terminated in connection
with or within 24 months following a change in control for any of the reasons set forth in the preceding sentence, then such executive
will be entitled to the following: a lump sum cash severance payment equal to two times his or her average annual compensation,
as defined, (2) continued insurance coverage until the earlier of two years from the date of termination or subsequent full-time
employment, with a lump sum cash equivalency amount to be paid if such coverage either cannot be provided or would trigger the
payment of certain excise taxes, and (3) a lump sum cash payment equal to the projected cost of providing benefits under certain
other benefit plans to the executive for the remaining term of the Employment Agreement.
A change in control
is defined in the Employment Agreements to mean a change in the ownership of the Company or the Bank, a change in the effective
control of the Company or the Bank or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company or the Bank,
in each case as provided under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations thereunder.
The Employment Agreements
with Messrs. Cirucci and Meier provide that if any of the payments or benefits to be provided thereunder or otherwise upon termination
of employment are deemed to constitute a "parachute payment" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue
Code, which would cause the executive to incur an excise tax under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code, then the Bank shall
pay the executive an amount such that after payment of all federal, state and local income tax and any additional excise tax, the
executive will be fully reimbursed for the amount of such excise tax. The Employment Agreements with Mr. McGrath and Ms. Ricci
provide that if any of the payments or benefits to be provided thereunder or otherwise upon termination of employment are deemed
to constitute a "parachute payment" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code, then the payments
and benefits shall be reduced by the minimum amount necessary so that no excise taxes are triggered under Section 4999 of the Internal
Revenue Code.
2
The Employment Agreements
also provide that during the term of the agreement and for the 12-month (24-month in the case of Mr. Cirucci) period immediately
following termination, the executive will not (i) solicit or induce, or cause others to solicit or induce, any employee of the
Bank or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries to leave the employment of such entities, or (iii) solicit any customer of the Bank
or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries to transact business with any corporation, partnership or other entity which is engaged
in any line of business conducted by the Bank or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries during such period, including but not limited
to entities which lend money and take deposits, or to reduce or refrain from doing any business with the Bank or its affiliates
or subsidiaries, or interfere with or damage any relationship between the Bank or its affiliates or subsidiaries and any such customers.
