Why is the annual meeting a virtual, online meeting?

For the safety and convenience of our shareholders, our board of directors decided not to hold an in-person annual meeting this year. All of our annual meetings since 2020 have been held virtually.

How may I vote my shares at the virtual annual meeting?

If you hold shares of the Company’s common stock as the shareholder of record, you have the right to vote those shares at the annual meeting. Please follow the instructions on your proxy card and at https://meetnow.global/MMRWZPR in order to vote your shares during the meeting. Shareholders of record will need a control number to access the meeting. The control number can be found on your proxy card.

If you are a beneficial owner and hold shares of the Company’s common stock in street name, you cannot vote the shares you beneficially own through the online voting platform unless you have a written legal proxy from your bank, brokerage firm or other nominee to do so. If you obtain a written legal proxy, please follow the instructions above under “Do I need to register in advance to attend the annual meeting virtually on the Internet?” in order to vote your shares during the meeting.

Even if you plan to attend the virtual annual meeting, you should submit a proxy card or voting instruction form for your shares in advance, so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the virtual annual meeting.

How do I vote shares held directly in my name without attending the annual meeting?

If you hold your shares directly and not through a bank, brokerage firm or other nominee, even if you plan to attend the virtual annual meeting, you may vote your shares in one of the other following ways:

•

By Mail. If you choose to vote by mail, complete the enclosed proxy card, date and sign it, and return it in the postage-paid envelope provided.

•

By Telephone. If you choose to vote by telephone, call toll-free 1-800-652-VOTE (8683). Please note telephone votes must be cast prior to 11:59 P.M. EDT on April 20, 2026.

•

By Internet. If you choose to vote by internet, log onto www.investorvote.com/BPRN. Please note internet votes must be cast prior to 11:59 P.M. EDT on April 20, 2026.

How do I vote if shares are held through a bank, brokerage firm or other nominee?

If you hold your shares through a bank, brokerage firm or other nominee, you will need to vote your shares by providing voting instructions to your bank, brokerage firm or other nominee, in accordance with the voting instruction form provided to you by your bank, brokerage firm or other nominee, or by obtaining a legal proxy from your bank, brokerage firm or other nominee authorizing you to vote those shares at the virtual annual meeting. Only with a legal proxy from your bank, brokerage firm or other nominee can you cast your vote using the online voting platform at the annual meeting.

How do I vote the shares allocated to my account in the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”)?

All ESOP participants are entitled to direct the ESOP Trustee how to vote the shares allocated to their ESOP accountants. If you are an ESOP participant, you should be receiving instructions from the Company on how to vote your shares held by the ESOP Trustee. If you do not receive such instructions, please contact Daniel J. O’Donnell, Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Chief Operating Officer of the Company.

How will my proxy be voted?

Your proxy will be voted as you specify in your proxy. However, unless contrary instructions are given, we plan to vote signed and returned proxies FOR the election of each of the board of directors’ nominees named in this proxy statement, FOR the approval of our named executive officer compensation, and FOR the approval of the proposal to ratify the selection of Wolf & Company, P.C. as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.

If you hold your shares of the Company’s common stock through a broker or other nominee, under applicable rules, brokers have the discretion to vote on routine matters, such as the ratification of the selection of accounting firms, but do not have discretion to vote on non-routine matters. Among other things, the election of directors and matters related to executive compensation are considered non-routine. If you do not give your broker or other nominee instructions on how to vote your shares, votes may not be cast on your behalf with respect to non-routine matters. If your broker or other nominee submits a proxy but does not vote your shares on a particular proposal because it has not received voting instructions from you, your shares will be considered to be “broker non-votes” with regard to that matter. See “What is a broker non-vote?” below.

At the annual meeting, a judge of elections will tabulate ballots cast by shareholders present virtually and voting online and votes cast by proxy.

What is a broker non-vote?

A broker non-vote occurs when a bank or brokerage firm holding shares on behalf of a shareholder does not receive voting instructions from the shareholder by a specified date before the annual meeting and the bank or brokerage firm is not permitted under applicable stock exchange rules to vote, or otherwise does not vote, those undirected shares on specified matters. Thus, if you do not give your broker specific instructions, your shares may not be voted on those matters (so-called “broker non-votes”) and will not be counted in determining the number of shares necessary for approval. Broker non-votes are not considered to be votes cast and, therefore, generally have no effect on the outcome of elections of directors or other matters that are determined based on votes cast.

Can I revoke my proxy or change my vote after submitting my proxy?

Yes. A proxy may be revoked or changed prior to its use at the annual meeting by:

•

sending a written notice to the Secretary of Princeton Bancorp, Inc. at 183 Bayard Lane, Princeton, New Jersey 08540, stating that you would like to revoke your proxy;

•

delivering to the Secretary of Princeton Bancorp a later-dated, signed proxy (including by telephone or internet); or

•

attending the annual meeting virtually and voting online.

Merely attending the annual meeting virtually does not mean that you have revoked your proxy. You must attend the meeting and vote online in order for your proxy to be revoked.

What constitutes a quorum at the annual meeting and how are votes counted?

We need a quorum of shareholders to hold a valid annual meeting. A quorum will be present if at least a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote are represented online or by proxy at the annual meeting.

How many votes are required for the election of directors?

Directors are elected by a plurality vote of shares of common stock cast online or by proxy at the annual meeting. A “plurality” means that the individuals who receive the greatest number of “FOR” votes are elected as directors, up to the number of directors to be elected at the annual meeting. Because the election of directors is based on a plurality of the votes, “withhold” votes, as well as broker non-votes, will have no effect on the outcome of the election of directors. Shareholders of the Company are not entitled to cumulative voting rights.

How many votes are required to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers, and to ratify the selection of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm?

The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the annual meeting, provided that a quorum is present, is required to (i) approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers; and (ii) ratify the selection of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the voting results for these proposals.

Where can I find the voting results of the annual meeting?

The Company will report the voting results by filing a current report on Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) within four business days after the date of the annual meeting (i.e. by

April 27, 2026). If the final voting results are not known when the Company files its report, it will amend the initial report to disclose the final voting results within four business days after those results become known.

MATTER NO. 1

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The board of directors is elected by the shareholders to represent their interest in the Company. Our board of directors works closely with executive management and oversees the development and execution of our business strategy.

Board Composition

The Company is managed by our board of directors. Our articles of incorporation provide that the number of directors constituting the entire board of directors will not be less than three nor more than 25, and further provide that the exact number will be fixed from time to time by our board of directors. The board of directors has fixed the number of directors constituting the entire board of directors at nine.

Nomination Process

The board of directors has a nomination committee that makes reports and recommendations to the board from time to time, but no less frequently than annually, regarding the size of the board and board nominees.

The current members of the board of directors have a diversity of experience and a wide variety of backgrounds, skills, qualifications, and viewpoints that strengthen their ability to carry out their oversight role on behalf of our shareholders. The following matrix is provided to illustrate the knowledge, skills and experience of the directors that serve on our board. The matrix does not encompass all of the knowledge, skills and experience of our directors, and the fact that a particular knowledge, skill or experience is not listed does not mean that a director does not possess it. In addition, the absence of a particular knowledge, skill or experience with respect to any of our directors does not mean the director in question is unable to contribute to the decision-making process in that area. However, the matrix indicates a specific area of focus or expertise that the directors bring to our board. More information on each director’s qualifications and background can be found in the director biographies below. Our nomination committee regularly reviews the attributes required of board members in order to better facilitate our long-term goals and operational performance, and enhance our corporate culture.

The following matrix shows those skills and the number of directors having each skill, highlighting the diversity of skills on the board of directors, as well as age and board tenure information.

The board of directors has nominated the nine director candidates identified in this proxy statement, and it is intended that the proxies solicited by the board of directors will be voted “FOR” the election of each of the board of directors’ director nominees (unless the shareholder otherwise directs). If, for any reason, any board of directors’ director nominee becomes unavailable for election or service on the board of directors, the

proxy solicited by the board of directors will be voted for such substituted director nominee as is selected by the board of directors. The board of directors has no reason to believe that any of the director nominees are not available or will not serve if elected.

ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION

As required pursuant to Section 14A of the Exchange Act, we are asking our shareholders for a non-binding vote on the compensation of our named executive officers as described in this proxy statement. This proposal, commonly known as a “say-on-pay” proposal, gives our shareholders the opportunity to express their views on the compensation of our named executive officers. The current frequency of our shareholder advisory votes on executive compensation is every year. The next shareholder advisory vote will occur in 2027.

Even though this say-on-pay vote is advisory and therefore will not be binding on us, the members of our compensation committee and board of directors value the opinions of our shareholders. Accordingly, to the extent there is a significant vote against the compensation of our named executive officers, we will consider our shareholders’ concerns, and our compensation committee will evaluate what actions may be necessary or appropriate to address those concerns.

In deciding how to vote on this proposal, the board of directors urges you to consider the following factors:

•

Our executive compensation program is designed to attract and retain executive officers by offering a competitive salary, the potential for short-term and long-term incentive compensation awards (cash and stock), tax-qualified retirement benefits, health and welfare benefits, and in certain cases, employment agreements with, among other things, change in control benefits.

•

The Company’s Compensation Committee has designed compensation packages for the Company’s senior executives to be competitive with the compensation offered by those peers with whom we compete for management talent.

•

The Company’s compensation program does not encourage excessive and unnecessary risks that would threaten the value of the Company.

Shareholders are urged to read the “Board of Directors and Committees–Compensation Processes and Procedures” and “Executive Officers and Compensation–Executive Compensation” sections of this proxy statement for greater detail about our executive compensation programs, including information about the fiscal year 2025 compensation of our named executive officers.

We are asking our shareholders to indicate their support for our executive compensation program as described in this proxy statement by voting in favor of the following resolution:

“RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed in this proxy statement pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the compensation tables and narrative discussion, is hereby APPROVED.”

Recommendation

OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR THE PROPOSAL TO APPROVE, ON AN ADVISORY BASIS, THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS.

PROPOSAL TO RATIFY THE SELECTION OF WOLF & COMPANY, P.C. AS THE COMPANY’S INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR THE YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2026

The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ended December 31, 2025 was Wolf & Company, P.C. (“Wolf & Company”). The audit committee has re-appointed Wolf & Company to continue as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Company for the year ending December 31, 2026. Shareholder ratification of the appointment of Wolf & Company is not required by the Company’s bylaws or otherwise. However, our board of directors is submitting the appointment of the independent registered public accounting firm to the shareholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. If the shareholders fail to ratify the appointment of Wolf & Company, the Company’s audit committee will reconsider whether it should select another independent registered public accounting firm. Even if the selection is ratified, the Company’s audit committee, in its discretion, may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such a change is in the best interests of the Company.

Representatives of Wolf & Company are expected to attend the annual meeting. They will be given an opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND COMMITTEES

Director Independence

We determine the independence of the members of our board of directors and board committees by reference to the listing standards of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC, or “NASDAQ.” Under the NASDAQ independence standards, all of our current directors and director nominees, other than Stephen Distler, Edward J. Dietzler, and Susan M. Barrett, have been determined to be independent, and all of the members of our audit committee, compensation/HR committee, and nomination committee have been determined to be independent.

Director Attendance at Meetings

Each of our directors takes his and her commitment to serve on the board of directors very seriously as demonstrated by the superior attendance achieved each year. During 2025, the board held 11 meetings, the Asset Liability Investment Committee held four meetings, the Audit Committee held four meetings, the Compensation/HR Committee held three meetings, the Compliance/BSA Committee held four meetings, the Loan Committee held twenty-two meetings, and the Nomination Committee held one meeting. Each current director attended at least 75% of the aggregate meetings of the board of directors and of the committees of which such director was a member.

Our board of directors believes it is important for all directors to attend the annual meeting of shareholders to show support for the Company and to provide an opportunity to interact with shareholders directly. Although we do not have a policy with respect to director attendance at our annual meeting of shareholders, all of our directors attended the Company’s 2025 Annual Meeting of shareholders either virtually or in person.

Board Leadership Structure

The Company’s board of directors is made up of nine directors, six of whom have been determined to be independent. We have chosen to keep separate the roles of chairman of the board of directors and chief executive officer. The Company’s board is chaired by Richard J. Gillespie, an independent director. Edward J. Dietzler serves as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and President. We believe that keeping separate the roles of chairman and chief executive officer is an effective means by which the board of directors is able to independently manage risk oversight.

Board Risk Oversight

The Company’s board of directors has designated standing audit, nomination and compensation/HR committees. Each committee of the Company oversees risk within its area of responsibility. For example, the audit committee oversees risks and exposures associated with financial matters, particularly financial reporting, tax, accounting, disclosure, internal control over financial reporting, financial policies, investment guidelines and credit and liquidity matters. Our board of directors oversees all identified material risks and is responsible for risk management. Our full board engages in discussions of risk management and receives any reports on risk from executive management, other Company officers, and from board committees, as appropriate.

Board of Director’s Role in Human Capital Management

Our board of directors believes that human capital management is an important component of our continued growth and success. Our board, through the compensation/HR committee, has regular involvement in talent retention and development and succession planning. The board has primary responsibility for chief executive officer succession planning and monitors management’s succession plans for other key executives.

Our board believes that the establishment of a strong management team is the best way to prepare for an unanticipated executive departure.

Board of Directors’ Committees

The board of directors maintains an audit committee, a compensation/HR committee, and a nomination committee, among other committees.

Audit Committee. The audit committee consists of Judith A. Giacin (chair), Robert N. Ridolfi, Martin Tuchman and Richard J. Gillespie. In addition to being independent under the NASDAQ independence standards, the board of directors has determined that each member of the audit committee is also “independent” for purposes of Section 10A(m)(3) of the Exchange Act. The audit committee was established for the purpose of overseeing the accounting and financial reporting processes of the Company and audits of the financial statements of the Company. The audit committee arranges for the Company’s examinations through its independent registered public accounting firm and third-party internal auditor, reviews and evaluates the recommendations of the examinations, receives all reports of examination of the Company by regulatory agencies, analyzes such reports, and reports to the Company’s board of directors the results of its analysis of the regulatory reports. The board of directors has determined that Judith A. Giacin is an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined in the regulations of the SEC.

Compensation/HR Committee. The compensation/HR committee consists of Richard J. Gillespie (chair), Judith A. Giacin, Martin Tuchman and Robert N. Ridolfi, each of whom has been determined by the board of directors to be “independent” within the meaning of the NASDAQ independence standards. The compensation/HR committee approves the compensation objectives for the Bank and establishes the compensation for the Chief Executive Officer and other named executive officers of the Bank. Our Chief Executive Officer makes recommendations to the compensation/HR committee from time to time regarding the appropriate mix and level of compensation for other executives. Those recommendations consider the objectives of our compensation philosophy and the range of compensation programs authorized by the compensation/HR committee and the board of directors. The compensation/HR committee reviews all compensation components for the Bank’s Chief Executive Officer and other named executive and senior officers. This includes base salary, short-term incentives, long-term incentives, non-qualified deferred compensation arrangements, and employment and change in control agreements. In addition to reviewing competitive market values, the compensation/HR committee also examines the total compensation mix, pay-for-performance relationship, and how all elements, in the aggregate, comprise the executive’s total compensation package. Decisions by the compensation/HR Committee with respect to the compensation of executive officers are approved by the full board of directors. In addition, the compensation/HR committee assists the board of directors in its oversight of human capital management through succession planning and employee retention initiatives.

Nomination Committee. The nomination committee consists of Ross Wishnick (chair), Richard J. Gillespie and Robert N. Ridolfi. The nomination committee meets to discuss and nominate members to the board of directors and to review the size of the board on an annual basis. The committee also reviews on an annual basis the criteria for director independence and determines which directors satisfy that criteria, periodically monitors and evaluates the orientation and training needs of the directors, oversees the Company’s corporate governance practices, and periodically conducts an evaluation of the composition, competence and performance of the board and reports the results of that evaluation to the board.

Each of these committees is governed by a charter. Copies of the applicable committee charters are available on the Company’s website at www.thebankofprinceton.com within the Investor Relations section.

Audit Committee Report

In accordance with SEC regulations, the audit committee has prepared the following report. As part of its ongoing activities, the audit committee has:

•

reviewed and discussed with management the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company at and for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024;

•

discussed with Wolf & Company, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) and the SEC; and

•

received the written disclosures and the letter from Wolf & Company required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding Wolf & Company’s communications with the audit committee concerning independence, and has discussed with Wolf & Company its independence.

Based upon its review and the considerations and discussions referenced above, the audit committee recommended to the board of directors that the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements be included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Submitted by the Audit Committee:

Judith A. Giacin (chair)

Robert N. Ridolfi

Compensation Processes and Procedures

The compensation/HR committee is organized and conducts its business pursuant to a written charter adopted by the board of directors, along with a written compensation philosophy that is reviewed annually by the compensation/HR committee. A copy of the current charter of the compensation/HR committee is posted under the “Governance Documents” tab on the “Investor Relations” page of the Bank’s website at www.thebankofprinceton.com. At least annually, the compensation/HR Committee reviews and reassesses the adequacy of its charter and recommends any proposed changes to the full board of directors for approval as necessary. The compensation/HR Committee Charter requires the committee to oversee and administer the Company’s benefit plans and policies, as well as recommend to the board of directors the remuneration for our named executive officers and directors. Each year, the compensation/HR Committee reviews and evaluates the compensation of the directors and the total compensation package for the named executive officers. The evaluation performed by the compensation/HR Committee involves gathering relevant compensation and benefit information through market data and trends, as well as best practices in the banking industry. The compensation/HR Committee reports the results of its evaluation, along with compensation and benefit recommendations, to the board of directors, which makes the final determination on all compensation decisions regarding the directors and the named executive officers. The compensation/HR Committee also reviews aggregate salary and bonus budget information for non-executive employees.

Based on the Company’s performance in 2025, and to further the Company’s long-term incentive program, our named executive officers were awarded restricted stock units in January 2026. The restricted stock units were awarded under the terms of the Company’s 2018 Equity Incentive Plan. The restricted stock unit awards (and related dividend equivalents) vest ratably over a three-year period. Dividend equivalents

associated with any restricted stock unit award are not distributed until the underlying award vests. In the event an executive terminates employment for reasons other than death, all unvested restricted stock units will be forfeited. In the event of death, all unvested restricted stock units will vest. In the event of a change in control (as defined in the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan) all unvested restricted stock units will vest. See “– Summary Compensation Table” for the restricted stock unit awards granted to our named executive officers in 2025.

In 2025, the compensation/HR committee continued to structure the Company’s executive compensation program based on the following objectives set forth in the Company’s compensation philosophy:

Design and implement an executive total compensation program that reflects best practices in the financial services industry, complies with the safety and soundness guidance issued by bank regulators and adapts to regulatory changes;

Target executive compensation pay and benefits at levels that attract, motivate and retain the best individuals available to implement the Company’s strategic plan;

Structure incentive compensation plans and arrangements around the attainment of individual and Company performance goals and the balance of an appropriate mix of risk and return; and

Maintain double trigger employment and change in control agreements (“executive agreements”) where necessary and appropriate to insure a stable executive management team.

The Company executed the compensation philosophy objectives in 2025 through five (5) core components:

•

competitive base pay;

•

performance-based cash-based short-term incentives;

•

performance-based long-term equity-based incentives (restricted stock units);

•

employment agreements; and

•

tax-qualified and non-qualified retirement benefits.

The compensation/HR committee reviews the Company’s compensation philosophy on an annual basis to ensure it supports a total compensation package for the named executive officers that is competitive with market practice while varying awards to recognize Company and individual performance. The objective is to provide competitive pay for achieving performance goals consistent with the Company’s business objectives and performance. The board of directors believes our compensation program, policies and procedures appropriately addresses our objectives in connection with compensation and benefits for our named executive officers.

The compensation/HR committee reviews peer data, best practices in the banking industry, management recommendations and employee retention risks in its efforts to create a compensation and benefit program that balances risk and reward and is consistent with the Bank’s business strategy.

The Company’s compensation programs are designed to ensure that employees, including the named executive officers, are not encouraged to take unnecessary risks in managing the business of the Company. This includes:

•

Oversight of compensation programs (or components of programs) by the compensation/HR Committee and by a broad-based group of functions within the Company, including the Human Resources and Finance Departments;

•

Discretion provided to the compensation/HR committee to set targets, monitor performance, and determine final incentive award payouts to the named executive officers;

•

Short-and long-term incentive programs that provide a balanced mixture of cash and equity compensation;

•

Multi-year service-based vesting conditions with respect to the grant of Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) and its supplemental executive retirement plan; and

•

Recoupment and/or forfeiture of executive officer incentive-based compensation in the event the Company determines that financial results of the Company have been altered, inflated, and/or inappropriately manipulated for material gain or an infraction of recognized ethical business standards has caused financial, legal, reputational, or other harm to the Bank.

In addition, the compensation/HR committee periodically monitors the Company’s short-term and long-term incentive programs throughout the year to ensure that such programs do not encourage undue risk taking and appropriately balance risk and reward.

This column reflects the total grant date fair value for all restricted stock unit awards granted during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, as applicable. The assumptions used in the calculation of these amounts are described in the Notes to our consolidated financial statements, which are included in the annual report accompanying this proxy statement.

Represents amounts awarded under the Bank’s Management Incentive Plan, a short-term performance-based incentive plan that provides the participating executives with annual cash-based incentive opportunities.

For each year, the amounts represented the change in the actuarial present value of the named executive officer’s accumulated benefit under his Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”) as computed on the pension plan measurement dates used for financial statement reporting purposes for the Company’s audited financial statements in the applicable fiscal year.

Compensation in this column includes the economic benefit accruing to each named executive officers under life insurance policies on his or her life, any automobile allowance, the Bank’s matching contribution to accounts under its 401(k) tax-deferred defined contribution retirement plan, cell phone allowances, club membership dues, and the value of the 2025 and 2024 ESOP allocations to our named executive officers (see “Employer Stock Ownership Plan” below).

Employment and Other Agreements

Employment Agreements

The Bank maintains an employment agreement with each of Mr. Dietzler, Mr. O’Donnell and Ms. Adkins (each, an “Agreement”). Each Agreement provides the officer with an annual base salary, subject to discretionary increases by the Bank, and entitles him or her to participate in any officer benefit, incentive compensation plans and arrangements available to officers and executive officers of the Bank. The current 2026 base salaries for Messrs. Dietzler and O’Donnell and Ms. Adkins are $696,296, $578,462, and $ 324,612, respectively.

Under each Agreement, the officer’s employment may be terminated for specified events of Cause (as defined in the Agreement), in which case the parties’ obligations under the Agreement will cease. If the officer’s employment is terminated without Cause or if the officer terminates his or her employment for Good

Reason (as defined in the Agreement) and there has not been a Change in Control, the Bank will pay the officer a cash severance payment. Under the terms of the Dietzler and O’Donnell employment agreements, the cash severance payment would be equal to the sum of two times: (i) the officer’s then base salary and (ii) the officer’s three-year average of his highest annual bonus paid (cash or stock) during the term of the Agreement. Under terms of the employment agreement with Ms. Adkins, the cash severance payment would be equal to her then current annual base salary. In addition to the cash payment, the Bank will provide the officer and his or her eligible dependents, at no cost, with continued health and medical benefits for eighteen months following termination of employment.

Under the Agreement, if within twenty-four months of a Change in Control the Bank or its successor terminates an officer’s employment for reasons other than Cause, or the officer terminates his or her employment for Good Reason, the Bank (or its successor) will pay Messrs. Dietzler and O’Donnell, a lump sum cash severance payment equal to the sum of three times: (i) the officer’s then base salary and (ii) the officer’s three year average of his highest annual bonus paid (cash or stock) during the term of the Agreement and Ms. Adkins will receive a Change in Control lump sum cash severance payment equal to two times her base salary. In addition to the cash payment, the Bank or its successor will pay to the officer a lump sum cash payment, less applicable withholdings, equal to the applicable premium cost for 18 months of continued Bank group health coverage for the officer and any spouse and dependents.

If during the term of the Agreement, the officer voluntarily terminates his or her employment without Good Reason, retires or dies, the obligations of the parties under the Agreement will cease, unless the officer dies or becomes disabled after providing notice of termination for Good Reason, in which case, the officer, or his or her estate, as the case may be, will be entitled to the amounts described above.

During his or her employment and for a period of six months after a termination of employment, each Agreement prohibits the officer from competing with the Bank, soliciting the Bank’s customers and borrowers, and soliciting or endeavor to entice away from the Bank certain types of Bank employees within any county in which the Bank has a branch or loan production office. The Dietzler and O’Donnell employment agreements each provide for the reduction of any Change in Control payments to the officer to the extent necessary so that he will not receive “excess parachute payments” under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code, which would result in the imposition of an excise tax under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code, but only if, by reason of such reduction, the “net after-tax benefit” (as defined in the Agreement) to the officer will exceed the net after-tax benefit if such reduction were not made. Ms. Adkins’ employment agreement provides that the payments and benefits she will receive in the event of a Change in Control will be reduced to $1.00 less the value of three times her base amount as determined under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code (to the extent necessary to avoid excess parachute payments).

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan

The Bank maintains a SERP for the benefit of Mr. Dietzler and Mr. O’Donnell. The board of directors believes that Mr. Dietzler and Mr. O’Donnell are critical to the successful execution of the Bank’s strategic plan, and therefore the Bank implemented the SERP to both incentivize and retain these executives.

The SERP provides these executives with supplemental retirement income payable in the form of a life annuity. Upon separation of service upon the attainment of age 65, the annual retirement benefit for Messrs. Dietzler and O’Donnell is $120,728 and $67,037, respectively. All SERP benefits fully vested in 2025. In the event an executive experiences a separation from service for “Cause” (as defined in the SERP), the executive will forfeit his entire SERP benefit, regardless of vesting. In the event an executive has a separation from service prior to full vesting for reasons other than Cause or a Change in Control (as defined in the SERP), the executive will receive a benefit equal to the vested portion of his account balance in the SERP, which is the amount accrued by the Bank under generally accepted accounting principles as of such date (the “Account Balance”.) Vested benefits are distributed upon: (i) the executive’s death; or (ii) the later of the executive’s attainment of

age 65 (normal retirement age) or separation from service. In the event an executive dies while in active service with the Bank, his beneficiary will receive a lump sum payment equal to his Account Balance in the SERP at the time of death. In the event an executive dies while in pay status but before receiving 180 monthly payments, his beneficiary will receive the remaining Account Balance. If an executive has already received 180 monthly payments at the time of his death, his beneficiary will not be entitled to a death benefit. The SERP also provides that in connection with a Change in Control, a rabbi trust will be formed and the annuity placed in the trust.

See “ – Summary Compensation Table – Change in Pension Value and Non-qualified Deferred Compensation Earnings” for aggregate change in the actuarial present value of the accumulated benefit.

Amended and Restated Deferred Compensation Plan

The Bank of Princeton Non-Employee Directors Deferred Compensation Plan was amended and restated in its entirety in 2025 as The Bank of Princeton Deferred Compensation Plan, in order to provide the Company and its affiliates with a strategic tool to attract, retain and reward its top executives by providing deferral opportunities beyond the tax-qualified limits imposed by The Bank of Princeton 401(k) Plan and The Bank of Princeton Employee Stock Ownership Plan, along with providing the Company the ability to make discretionary employer contributions. The plan, as amended and restated, will continue to permit non-employee directors to defer income attributable to their service as non-employee directors. Deferrals can be invested in Company common stock as well as other deemed investments selected by the Compensation Committee. Messrs. Dietzler and O’Donnell are eligible for discretionary contributions under the plan.

Equity Incentive Plans

The Company’s 2018 Equity Incentive Plan (“2018 Plan”) is the foundation for the Company’s long-term incentive compensation program. The 2018 Plan expands the types of equity-based awards that may be granted to employees, directors, consultants, and other service providers. The 2018 Plan permits the board of directors to grant stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units (“RSUs”). The shares subject to or related to options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units under the 2018 Plan are authorized and unissued shares of our common stock. The maximum number of shares that may be issued upon the exercise of options or the grant of restricted stock awards or RSUs under the 2018 Plan is 328,910. If and to the extent awards granted under the 2018 Plan terminate, expire, cancel or are forfeited without being exercised and/or delivered, the shares subject to such awards will again be available for grant under the 2018 Equity Plan. The 2018 Plan gives the compensation/HR committee and the board of directors the authority to determine the vesting schedule and other conditions of any equity-based award granted under the 2018 Plan.

The Company’s long-term incentive program grants the named executive officers Restricted Stock Units based on the Company’s performance for the applicable fiscal year. All long-term incentive awards vest ratably over a three (3) year period. The value of each RSU grant is determined as a percentage of each named executive officer’s base salary. In addition, the Bank’s short-term incentive plan (Management Incentive Plan), provides the compensation/HR committee with the discretion to pay annual bonuses in cash or stock.

In addition to the 2018 Plan, the Company maintains additional equity plans that have equity awards outstanding; however no further awards maybe granted under such plans. See Note 15 - Stock-Based Compensation to our consolidated financial statements, which is included in the annual report accompanying this proxy statement, for additional information regarding our equity awards, including the approach and assumptions used to value these awards. All outstanding options under these plans, and all outstanding restricted stock awards and RSUs under the 2018 Plan, will become fully vested and exercisable upon a change in control of the Company.

Management Incentive Plan.

The Bank maintains the Management Incentive Plan to provide selected members of management, including our named executive officers with a short-term cash-based award in recognition for their collective and individual contributions to the success of the Bank. The plan focuses on performance measures that are critical to the Bank’s growth, profitability and maintenance of a strong capital position and provides each participant with various stated incentive opportunities as a percentage of base salary. The 2025 performance measures were: (1) tangible book value, excluding the Bank’s core deposit intangible, goodwill, treasury stock and accumulated other comprehensive income (60% weighting), (2) net loan funding (15% weighting), (3) qualitative measures (10% weighting) and (4) non-accrual loans plus other real estate owned, as a percentage of total assets (15% weighting). While the primary focus of the plan in 2025 was on the financial performance of the Company and its affiliates, the Management Incentive Plan also included a qualitative component. The qualitative component consisted of risk management, regulatory compliance and strategic initiatives. Management’s accomplishments in these areas were as follows:


Qualitative Measure	Assessment
Risk Management	Management continued to monitor significant policies and programs to measure, monitor and manage the Bank’s risk exposures and business activities. In addition, management continued its commitment to protecting client information and devoted significant time and attention to information security / cybersecurity risks.
Regulatory Compliance	The Bank remained in good standing with its primary regulators during the year.
Strategic Initiatives	Management successfully executed on its growth strategy by successfully integrating Cornerstone Bank into the Company.

See “– Summary Compensation Table” for the dollar amount of the 2025 Management Incentive Plan payouts to our named executive officers.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan

The Bank maintains The Bank of Princeton Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the “ESOP”) for eligible employees. The ESOP is a tax-qualified defined contribution plan invested primarily in employer securities. All employees of the Bank (or other participating employer), who are 21 years of age or older and have completed 1,000 hours of service during a six-month period, are eligible to participate in the ESOP. Eligible employees can begin participation in the ESOP on the entry date that coincides or immediately follows their satisfaction of the ESOP’s eligibility requirements. Annually, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors recommends a contribution amount to the board of directors for approval. The Board approved a $331,000 cash contribution to the ESOP Trust for 2025. Cash contributed to the ESOP is used by the ESOP Trustee to purchase shares in the open market. The Company stock is then allocated to the accounts of active ESOP participants based on each active participant’s plan compensation as a percentage of total plan compensation as of December 31st of each plan year. ESOP participants vest in their account balances at a rate of 25% for each year of service in which a participant performs 1,000 hours of service. ESOP account balances become fully vested upon death, attainment of normal retirement age, termination of the ESOP or a change in control. In addition, all dividends (if any) paid on the Company stock held in the ESOP Trust are allocated to participant ESOP Accounts as earnings. All of the named executive officers participate in the ESOP. The amounts in the “Summary Compensation Table — All Other Compensation” include the value of the 2025 and 2024 ESOP allocations to our named executive officers.

401(k) Plan

We maintain a 401(k) plan for our employees to defer a portion of their compensation for retirement. Under the 401(k) plan, all employees are eligible to contribute the maximum allowed by the Internal Revenue Code. The board of directors, in its sole discretion, may authorize discretionary matching contributions in the 401(k) Plan. During the plan years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Compensation/HR Committee and the board of directors authorized matching contributions under the 401(k) Plan. All of our named executive officers participate in the 401(k) Plan. The amounts in the “Summary Compensation Table — All Other Compensation” column include 2025 and 2024 employer matching contributions under the 401(k) Plan credited to our named executive officers.

PAY VERSUS PERFORMANCE

As required by Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, the Company is providing the following information about the relationship between executive compensation as reported in the Summary Compensation Table, “Compensation Actually Paid” ("CAP") as defined by the SEC, and certain financial performance of the Company.

Analysis of the Information Presented in the Pay Versus Performance Table

The following is a description of the relationships between information presented in the Pay Versus Performance Table.

CAP and Net Income

In 2023, our net income decreased by 2.8% against the previous net income from 2022. In 2024, our net income decreased by 60.2% against the previous net income from 2023. In 2025, our net income has increased by 81.7% against the previous net income from 2024. The CAP for our CEO increased by 20.3% in 2023 over 2022, decreased by 14.3% in 2024 when compared to 2023, and decreased again in 2025 by 7.7% when compared to 2024.

CAP and Cumulative TSR

The amount of CAP to Mr. Dietzler, our CEO, is aligned with the Company's TSR for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2024, but not for the year ended December 31, 2025. When using the value of stock at December 31, 2022 as a benchmark, and stating the value of an initial fixed investment of $100, our TSR rose to 116.96 in 2023, decreased to $112.33 in 2024 and increased to $113.31 in 2025. As reflected in the above analysis, the CAP to our CEO increased by 20.3% in 2023, and decreased by 14.3% in 2024, but decreased by 7.7% in 2025.

The amount of CAP to our NEOs as a group also is aligned with the Company's TSR for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2024, but not for year ended December 31, 2025. The changes to our TSR are outlined above. As reflected in the above analysis, the CAP for our NEOs increased by 18.2% in 2023 when compared to 2022, and then decreased by 13.68% in 2024 when compared to 2023, and decreased by 2.8% in 2025 when compared to 2024. Further information regarding these awards can be found above in our Summary Compensation Table.
