AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION

THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of August 7, 2018, by and between WSFS Financial Corporation (“WSFS”), a Delaware corporation, and Beneficial Bancorp, Inc. (“Beneficial”), a Maryland corporation.

Preamble

The respective boards of directors of Beneficial and WSFS have approved this Agreement and determined and declared that this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby are advisable and in the best interests of their respective companies and their respective stockholders.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement and in accordance with the Maryland General Corporation Law (the “MGCL”) and the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), Beneficial will merge with and into WSFS (the “Merger”), with WSFS as the surviving corporation in the Merger (sometimes referred to in such capacity as the “Surviving Corporation”).

Concurrently with the Merger, Beneficial Bank, a Pennsylvania-chartered savings bank and wholly owned subsidiary of Beneficial (“Beneficial Bank”), will merge with and into Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, a federal savings bank and wholly owned subsidiary of WSFS (“WSFS Bank”), with WSFS Bank as the surviving bank, sometimes referred to in such capacity as the “Surviving Bank” (the “Bank Merger,” and together with the Merger, the “Mergers”).

As an inducement for WSFS to enter into this Agreement, each of the directors and certain executive officers of Beneficial have simultaneously herewith entered into a Voting Agreement (each a “Beneficial Voting Agreement”), in the form of Exhibit A.

As an inducement for Beneficial to enter into this Agreement, each of the directors and certain executive officers of WSFS have simultaneously herewith entered into a Voting Agreement (each a “WSFS Voting Agreement” and together with the Beneficial Voting Agreements, the “Voting Agreements”), in the form of Exhibit B.

As an inducement for WSFS’s willingness to enter into this Agreement, certain employees of Beneficial set forth on Exhibit C-1 hereto have simultaneously herewith entered into executive agreements, in form and substance acceptable to WSFS, to be effective upon the Closing (the “Executive Agreements”).

It is the intention of the Parties that the Merger and the Bank Merger for federal income tax purposes shall each qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, and this Agreement is intended to be and is adopted as a “plan of reorganization” for purposes of Sections 354 and 361 of the Internal Revenue Code for each such Merger.

The Parties desire to make certain representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in connection with the Mergers and also to prescribe to certain conditions to the Mergers.

Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined herein are defined in Section 10.1 of this Agreement.

2.2.                            Anti-Dilution Provisions.

Without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement and subject to Sections 6.2(d) and 6.2(e), if at any time during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the issued and outstanding shares of Beneficial Common Stock or securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for shares of Beneficial Common Stock or the issued and outstanding shares of WSFS Common Stock or securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for shares of WSFS Common Stock, shall have been changed into a different number of shares or a different class by reasons of any reclassification, stock split (including reverse stock split), stock dividend or distribution, reorganization, recapitalization, redenomination, merger, issuer tender or exchange offer or other similar transaction, then, the Merger Consideration (including the Exchange Ratio) shall be equitably and proportionately adjusted, if necessary and without duplication, to reflect fully the effect of any such change; provided, that nothing in this Section 2.2 shall be considered to permit any Party to take any action with respect to its securities that is prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

(a)                                 At the Effective Time, each option granted by Beneficial to purchase shares of Beneficial Common Stock under a Beneficial Stock Plan, whether vested or unvested, that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time (a “Beneficial Stock Option”) shall be canceled and converted into the right to receive from WSFS a cash payment equal to the difference, if positive, between $19.50 and the exercise price of the Beneficial Stock Option.  Any Beneficial Stock Option with an exercise price that equals or exceeds $19.50 shall be canceled with no consideration being paid to the optionholder with respect to such Beneficial Stock Option. WSFS shall, or shall cause an Affiliate of WSFS to, pay the consideration described in this Section 2.3(a) within five Business Days following the Effective Time.

(c)                                  At or prior to the Effective Time, Beneficial, the board of directors of Beneficial or its compensation committee, as applicable, shall adopt any resolutions and take any actions that are necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.3.

2.4.                            Treatment of Beneficial KSOP.

The right to acquire shares of Beneficial Common Stock under the Beneficial Employee Savings and Stock Ownership Plan (“Beneficial KSOP”) is not a Beneficial Stock Option for purposes of this Agreement. Without limiting Section 7.8(c) hereof, Beneficial shall, effective no later than the day immediately preceding the Closing Date (the “KSOP Termination Date”) and contingent upon the Closing, adopt such necessary resolutions and/or amendments to the Beneficial KSOP to (i) direct the Beneficial KSOP trustee to deliver a sufficient number of unallocated shares of Beneficial Common Stock held in the Beneficial KSOP’s suspense account to Beneficial to repay any outstanding exempt loan in the Beneficial KSOP at the Effective Time, (ii) provide for treatment of all remaining shares of Beneficial Common Stock held in the Beneficial KSOP trust in accordance with Section 2.1 hereof, (iii) provide that no new participants shall be admitted to the Beneficial KSOP on or after the KSOP Termination Date and (iv) fully vest all participant KSOP accounts as of the KSOP Termination Date.

No certificate, book-entry share or scrip representing fractional shares of WSFS Common Stock shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, no dividend or distribution of WSFS shall be payable on or with respect to any such fractional share interests, and such fractional share interests will not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a stockholder of WSFS.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder of shares of Beneficial Common Stock exchanged pursuant to the Merger who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of WSFS Common Stock (after taking into account all Certificates or Book-Entry Shares delivered by such holder) shall receive, in lieu thereof, a cash payment, rounded up to the nearest cent (without interest), which payment shall be determined by multiplying (i) the fraction of a share (rounded to the nearest thousandth when expressed in decimal form) of WSFS Common Stock that such holder of shares of Beneficial Common Stock would otherwise have been entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.1(c) by (ii) the Average Closing Price.

ARTICLE 3
EXCHANGE OF SHARES

3.1.                            Exchange Procedures.

(a)                                 Deposit of Merger Consideration.  At or prior to the Effective Time, WSFS shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with an exchange agent reasonably acceptable to Beneficial (the “Exchange Agent”), for the benefit of the holders of shares of Beneficial Common Stock (excluding the Canceled Shares) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Holders”), for exchange in accordance with this ARTICLE 3, (i) certificates or, at WSFS’s option, evidence of WSFS Common Stock in book-entry form issuable pursuant to Section 2.1(c) (collectively referred to as “WSFS Certificates”) for

5

shares of WSFS Common Stock equal to the aggregate Stock Consideration and (ii) immediately available funds for (A) the aggregate Cash Consideration and (B) any cash payable in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section 2.5, to the extent then determinable (collectively, the “Exchange Fund”). The Exchange Agent shall invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund as directed by WSFS, provided, that no such investment or losses thereon shall affect the amount of Merger Consideration and other amounts payable to the Holders. Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to WSFS.  WSFS shall instruct the Exchange Agent to timely pay the Merger Consideration and cash in lieu of fractional shares, in accordance with this Agreement.

(b)                                 Delivery of Merger Consideration. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time and in any event not later than seven days following the Effective Time, WSFS shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each Holder of a Certificate or Book-Entry Share notice advising such Holders of the effectiveness of the Merger, including appropriate transmittal materials specifying that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall pass, only upon (i) with respect to shares evidenced by Certificates, proper delivery of the Certificates and the transmittal materials, duly, completely and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, to the Exchange Agent (and such other documents as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request) and (ii) with respect to Book-Entry Shares, proper delivery of an “agent’s message” regarding the book-entry transfer of Book-Entry Shares (or such other evidence (if any) of the transfer as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request). Upon proper surrender of a Certificate or Book-Entry Shares for exchange and cancellation to the Exchange Agent, together with the appropriate transmittal materials, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may be required pursuant to such instructions, the Holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor (i) the Stock Consideration in non-certificated book-entry form and (ii) a check representing the amount of (A) the Cash Consideration, (B) any cash in lieu of fractional shares (which such Holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.5) and (C) any dividends or distributions which the Holder thereof has the right to receive pursuant to Section 3.1(d), in each case which such Holder has the right to receive in respect of the Certificate or Book-Entry Share surrendered pursuant to the provisions of this ARTICLE 3, and the Certificate or Book-Entry Share so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. No interest will be paid or accrued for the benefit of Holders on the Merger Consideration or any cash in lieu of fractional shares payable upon the surrender of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares.

(c)                                  Share Transfer Books. At the Effective Time, the share transfer books of Beneficial shall be closed, and thereafter there shall be no further registration of transfers of shares of Beneficial Common Stock. From and after the Effective Time, Holders who held shares of Beneficial Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have rights with respect to such shares, except as otherwise provided for herein. Until surrendered for exchange in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.1, each Certificate or Book-Entry Share theretofore representing shares of Beneficial Common Stock (other than the Canceled Shares) shall from and after the Effective Time represent for all purposes only the right to receive the consideration provided in ARTICLE 2 in exchange therefor, subject, however, to WSFS’s obligation to pay any dividends or make any other distributions with a record date prior to the Effective Time which have been declared or made by Beneficial in respect of such shares of Beneficial Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and which remain unpaid at the Effective Time. On or after the Effective Time, any Certificates or Book-Entry Shares presented to the Exchange Agent or the Surviving Corporation for any reason shall be canceled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration, any cash in lieu of fractional shares (if any) pursuant to Section 2.5 and any dividends or distributions (if any) pursuant to Section 3.1(d) with respect to the shares of Beneficial Common Stock formerly represented thereby.

(d)                                 Dividends with Respect to WSFS Common Stock. No dividends or other distributions declared with respect to WSFS Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to

6

the Holder of any unsurrendered Certificate or Book-Entry Shares with respect to the whole shares of WSFS Common Stock issuable with respect to such Certificate or Book-Entry Shares in accordance with this Agreement until the surrender of such Certificate or Book-Entry Shares (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) in accordance with this Agreement. Subject to applicable Laws, following surrender of any such Certificate or Book-Entry Shares (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) there shall be paid to the record holder of the whole shares of WSFS Common Stock, if any, issued in exchange therefor, without interest, (i) all dividends and other distributions payable in respect of any such whole shares of WSFS Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time and a payment date on or prior to the date of such surrender and not previously paid and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to such surrender and with a payment date subsequent to such surrender payable with respect to such shares of WSFS Common Stock.

(e)                                  Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund (including any interest and other income received with respect thereto) which remains undistributed to the former Holders on the first anniversary of the Effective Time shall be delivered to the Surviving Corporation, and any former Holders who have not theretofore received any Merger Consideration (including any cash in lieu of fractional shares and any applicable dividends or other distributions with respect to WSFS Common Stock) to which they are entitled under this ARTICLE 3 shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation for payment of their claims with respect thereto.

(f)                                   No Liability. None of WSFS, Beneficial, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent, or any employee, officer, director, agent or Affiliate of any of them, shall be liable to any Holder in respect of any cash that would have otherwise been payable in respect of any Certificate or Book-Entry Shares from the Exchange Fund delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(g)                                  Withholding Rights. Each and any of WSFS, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent, as applicable, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Cash Consideration, cash in lieu of fractional shares of WSFS Common Stock, cash dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 3.1(d) or any other cash amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any Person such amounts or property (or portions thereof) as WSFS, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment or distribution under the Internal Revenue Code, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, or any provision of applicable Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld and paid over to the appropriate Regulatory Authority by WSFS, the Surviving Corporation, or the Exchange Agent, as applicable, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by WSFS, the Surviving Corporation, or the Exchange Agent, as applicable.

(h)                                 Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, then upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by the Exchange Agent, the posting by such Person of a bond in such reasonable and customary amount as the Exchange Agent may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration, any cash in lieu of fractional shares and dividend or distributions to which the holder thereof is entitled pursuant to this Agreement.

(i)                                     Change in Name on Certificate. If any WSFS Certificate representing shares of WSFS Common Stock is to be issued in a name other than that in which the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares surrendered in exchange therefor is or are registered, it shall be a condition of the issuance thereof that the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares so surrendered shall be properly endorsed (or accompanied by an

7

appropriate instrument of transfer) and otherwise in proper form for transfer, and that the Person requesting such exchange shall pay to the Exchange Agent in advance any transfer or other similar Taxes required by reason of the issuance of a WSFS Certificate representing shares of WSFS Common Stock in any name other than that of the registered holder of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares surrendered, or required for any other reason, or shall establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

(j)                                    Rights of Former Beneficial Stockholders.  If any Certificates shall not have been surrendered, any Book-Entry Shares have not been canceled, or any amounts of the Merger Consideration shall remain unclaimed on the date that is three years after the Effective Time (or immediately prior to such earlier date on which the Merger Consideration would escheat to or become the property of any Regulatory Authority), any such Merger Consideration in respect thereof shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of WSFS, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person or his, her or its successors, assigns or personal representatives previously entitled thereto.

Beneficial Bank is an “insured depository institution” as defined in the FDIA and applicable regulations thereunder, has received a Community Reinvestment Act rating of “satisfactory” or better in its most recently completed performance evaluation, and Beneficial has no Knowledge of the existence of any fact or circumstance or set of facts or circumstances which would reasonably be expected to result in Beneficial Bank having its current rating lowered such that it is no longer “satisfactory” or better.

4.16.                     Labor Relations.

(a)                                 No Beneficial Entity is the subject of any pending or, to the Knowledge of Beneficial, threatened Litigation asserting that it or any other Beneficial Entity has committed an unfair labor practice (within the meaning of the National Labor Relations Act or comparable state Law) or other violation of state or federal labor Law or seeking to compel it or any other Beneficial Entity to bargain with any labor organization or other employee representative as to wages or conditions of employment.  No Beneficial Entity, predecessor, or Affiliate of a Beneficial Entity is or has ever been a party to any collective bargaining agreement or subject to any bargaining order, injunction or other Order relating to Beneficial’s relationship or dealings with its employees, any labor organization or any other employee representative, and no Beneficial Entity or Affiliate of a Beneficial Entity is currently negotiating any collective bargaining agreement.  To the Knowledge of Beneficial, since December 31, 2014, there has not been any attempt by any Beneficial Entity employees or any labor organization or other employee representative to organize or certify a collective bargaining unit or to engage in any other union organization activity with respect to the workforce of any Beneficial Entity. The employment of each employee of a Beneficial Entity is terminable at will by the relevant Beneficial Entity without any penalty, liability or severance obligation incurred by any Beneficial Entity.

(b)                                 Section 4.16(b) of Beneficial’s Disclosure Memorandum separately sets forth all of Beneficial’s employees, including for each such employee: name, job title, hire date, full- or part-time status, Fair Labor Standards Act designation, work location (identified by street address), current compensation paid or payable, all wage arrangements, fringe benefits (other than employee benefits applicable to all employees, which benefits are set forth on Section 4.17(a) of Beneficial’s Disclosure Memorandum), bonuses, incentives, or commissions paid the past three years, and visa and greencard application status.  To Beneficial’s Knowledge, no employee of any Beneficial Entity is a party to, or is otherwise bound by, any agreement or arrangement, including any confidentiality or non-competition agreement, that in any way adversely affects or restricts the performance of such employee’s duties.  No Key Employee of any Beneficial Entity has provided written notice to a Beneficial Entity of his or her intent to terminate his or her employment with the applicable Beneficial Entity as of the date hereof, and, as of the date hereof, to Beneficial’s Knowledge, no Key Employee intends to terminate his or her employment with Beneficial before Closing.

(c)                                  Section 4.16(c) of Beneficial’s Disclosure Memorandum contains a complete and accurate listing of the name (if an entity, including the name of the individuals employed by or providing service on behalf of such entity) and contact information of each individual who has provided in the last six months prior to the date of this Agreement personal services to any Beneficial Entity as an independent contractor, consultant, freelancer or other service provider (collectively, “Independent Contractors”).  A copy of each Contract relating to the services provided by any such Independent Contractor to a Beneficial Entity has been made available to WSFS prior to the date hereof.  The Beneficial Entities have no obligation or liability

19

with respect to any Taxes (or the withholding thereof) in connection with any Independent Contractor.  The Beneficial Entities have properly classified, pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code, the Fair Labor Standards Act, and any other applicable Law, all Independent Contractors used by the Beneficial Entities at any point.  The engagement of each Independent Contractor of each Beneficial Entity is terminable at will by the relevant Beneficial Entity without any penalty, liability or severance obligation incurred by any Beneficial Entity.

(d)                                 The Beneficial Entities have no “leased employees” within the meaning of Internal Revenue Code Section 414(n).

(e)                                  The Beneficial Entities have, or will have no later than the Closing Date, paid all accrued salaries, bonuses, commissions, and other wages due to be paid through the Closing Date.  Each of the Beneficial Entities is and at all times has been in material compliance with all Law governing the employment of labor, including but not limited to, all contractual commitments and all such Laws relating to wages, hours, affirmative action, collective bargaining, discrimination, civil rights, disability accommodation, employee leave, unemployment, worker classification, immigration, safety and health, and workers’ compensation.

(f)                                   Since December 31, 2014, there have not been any wage and hour claims, discrimination, disability accommodation, or other employment claims or charges by any employee of any Beneficial Entity or by any individual who has applied for employment with any Beneficial Entity, nor, to Beneficial’s Knowledge, are there any such claims or charges currently threatened by any employee or applicant of any Beneficial Entity. To Beneficial’s Knowledge, there are no governmental investigations open with or under consideration by the United States Department of Labor (“DOL”), Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, or any other federal or state governmental body charged with administering or enforcing employment related Laws.

(g)                                  All of the Beneficial Entities’ employees are employed in the United States and are either United States citizens or are legally entitled to work in the United States under the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986, as amended, other United States immigration Laws and the Laws related to the employment of non-United States citizens applicable in the state in which the employees are employed. Each individual who renders services to any Beneficial Entity is properly classified as having the status of an employee or independent contractor or other non-employee status (including for purposes of taxation and Tax reporting and under Beneficial Benefit Plans).

(h)                                 Since December 31, 2014 none of the Beneficial Entities has implemented any plant closing or mass layoff, as defined under the WARN Act, without providing notice in accordance with the WARN Act, and no such actions are currently contemplated, planned or announced.

4.17.                     Employee Benefit Plans.

(a)                                 Beneficial has made available to WSFS prior to the execution of this Agreement, true and correct copies of each current Beneficial Benefit Plan, a complete and accurate list of which is included in Section 4.17(a) of Beneficial’s Disclosure Memorandum.  “Beneficial Benefit Plan” means any Employee Benefit Plan (including all amendments thereto) that has been adopted, maintained, sponsored in whole or in part by, or contributed to or required to be contributed to, by any Beneficial Entity or Beneficial ERISA Affiliate for the benefit of employees, retirees, dependents, spouses, directors, independent contractors, or other beneficiaries or under which employees, retirees, former employees, dependents, spouses, directors, independent contractors, or other beneficiaries are eligible to participate or with respect to which Beneficial or any Beneficial ERISA Affiliate has or may have any obligation or Liability. For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Beneficial Benefit Plans” includes plans, programs, policies, and arrangements sponsored or

20

maintained by a third-party professional employer organization in which the current or former employees, retirees, dependents, spouses, directors, independent contractors, or other beneficiaries of the Beneficial Entity or any of its affiliates are eligible to participate.  No Beneficial Benefit Plan is subject to any Laws other than those of the United States or any state, county, or municipality in the United States. Beneficial has made available to WSFS prior to the execution of this Agreement (i) all trust agreements or other funding arrangements for all Beneficial Benefit Plans, (ii) all determination letters, opinion letters, information letters or advisory opinions issued by DOL, the United States Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), or the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (“PBGC”) during this calendar year or any of the preceding three calendar years, (iii) annual reports or returns, audited or unaudited financial statements, actuarial reports and valuations prepared for any Beneficial Benefit Plan for the current plan year and the preceding plan year, (iv) the most recent summary plan descriptions and any material modifications thereto, (v) any correspondence with the DOL, IRS, PBGC, or any other governmental entity regarding a Beneficial Benefit Plan, and (vi) all actuarial valuations of Beneficial Benefit Plans.

(b)                                 Each Beneficial Benefit Plan is and has been maintained in all material respects in compliance with the terms of such Beneficial Benefit Plan, and in all material respects in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, ERISA, and any other applicable Laws. Except as required by Law, no Beneficial Benefit Plan is required to be amended within the 90-day period beginning on the Closing Date in order to continue to comply with ERISA, the Internal Revenue Code, and other applicable Law. Each Beneficial Benefit Plan that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code has received a favorable determination letter, or for a prototype plan, opinion letter, from the IRS that is still in effect and applies to the Beneficial Benefit Plan and on which such Beneficial Benefit Plan is entitled to rely.  To Beneficial’s Knowledge, nothing has occurred and no circumstance exists that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the qualified status of such Beneficial Benefit Plan.  Within the past three years, no Beneficial Entity has taken any action to take material corrective action or make a filing under any voluntary correction program of the IRS, DOL or any other Regulatory Authority with respect to any Beneficial Benefit Plan. All assets of each Beneficial Benefit Plan that is a retirement plan consist exclusively of cash and actively traded securities.

(c)                                  There are no pending, or, to Beneficial’s Knowledge, threatened claims or disputes under the terms of, or in connection with, the Beneficial Benefit Plans other than claims for benefits in the Ordinary Course that are not expected to result in material liability to any Beneficial Entity, and no action, proceeding, prosecution, inquiry, hearing or investigation or audit has been commenced with respect to any Beneficial Benefit Plan.

(d)                                 No Beneficial Entity has engaged in any “prohibited transaction” (within the meaning of Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code or Section 406 of ERISA) for which there is not an exemption applicable with respect to any Beneficial Benefit Plan and no prohibited transaction has occurred with respect to any Beneficial Benefit Plan that would reasonably be expected to result in any liability or excise Tax under ERISA or the Internal Revenue Code being imposed on any Beneficial Entity or any other Person.  To the extent that any transaction entered into by a Beneficial Benefit Plan is or was intended to comply with Department of Labor Prohibited Transaction Exemption 77-4 or 86-128, such transaction so complied and, to the extent ongoing, complies. No Beneficial Entity, Beneficial Entity employee, nor any committee of which any Beneficial Entity employee is a member has breached his or her fiduciary duty with respect to a Beneficial Benefit Plan in connection with any acts taken (or failed to be taken) with respect to the administration or investment of the assets of any Beneficial Benefit Plan.  To Beneficial’s Knowledge, no fiduciary, within the meaning of Section 3(21) of ERISA, who is not Beneficial or any Beneficial Entity employee, has breached his or her fiduciary duty with respect to a Beneficial Benefit Plan or otherwise has any liability in connection with any acts taken (or failed to be taken) with respect to the administration or investment of the assets of any Beneficial Benefit Plan.  All Beneficial Stock Options, and any other stock options granted by a Beneficial Entity and outstanding at any time within the last six

21

years, were granted at no less than “fair market value” for purposes of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, and each such stock option has at all times been exempt from Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.

(e)                                  Neither Beneficial nor any Beneficial ERISA Affiliate has at any time been a party to or maintained, sponsored, contributed to or has been obligated to contribute to, or had any material liability with respect to, or would reasonably be expected to have any such obligation to contribute to or material liability with respect to: (i) any plan subject to Title IV of ERISA, including a “multiemployer plan” (as defined in Sections 3(37) and 4001(a)(3) of ERISA), (ii) a “multiple employer plan” (within the meaning of Section 413(c) of the Internal Revenue Code), (iii) a self-funded health or welfare benefit plan, (iv) any voluntary employees’ beneficiary association (within the meaning of Section 501(c)(9) of the Internal Revenue Code) or (v) any “multiple employer welfare arrangement” (within the meaning of Section 3(40) of ERISA).

(f)                                   Each Beneficial Benefit Plan that is a health or welfare plan has been amended and administered in accordance with the requirements of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010.  No Beneficial Entity has any Liability or obligation to provide postretirement health, medical or life insurance benefits to any Beneficial Entity’s employees or former employees, officers, or directors, or any dependent or beneficiary thereof, except as otherwise required under state or federal benefits continuation Laws and for which the covered individual pays the full cost of coverage.  No Tax under Internal Revenue Code Sections 4980B or 5000 has been incurred with respect to any Beneficial Benefit Plan and no circumstance exists which could give rise to such Tax.

(g)                                  Section 4.17(g) of Beneficial’s Disclosure Memorandum has a complete and accurate list of all Beneficial Benefit Plans that are subject to Title IV of ERISA (each a “Beneficial Pension Plan”).  Beneficial has made available to WSFS a true and complete copy of the most recently available actuarial valuation and the most recent statement of assets for each Beneficial Pension Plan.  No accumulated funding deficiency (as defined in ERISA 302 of and Internal Revenue Code Section 412), whether or not waived, exists with respect to any Beneficial Pension Plan.  Beneficial has made adequate provisions for reserves to meet contributions that have not been made yet because they are not yet due.  As of December 31, 2017, the aggregate current value of all vested accrued benefits (based on actuarial assumptions that have been furnished to WSFS) under all Beneficial Pension Plans did not exceed the aggregate current value of all assets of such Beneficial Pension Plans allocable to such vested accrued benefits.  No “reportable event” (as described in ERISA Section 4043(c) and the regulations thereunder, and determined without regard to whether the PBGC has waived the requirement to report the occurrence of such event) has occurred with respect to any Beneficial Pension Plan.  Since December 31, 2017, there has been (1) no material adverse change in the financial condition of any Beneficial Pension Plan, (2) no change in the actuarial assumptions with respect to any Beneficial Pension Plan, and (3) no increase in benefits under any Beneficial Pension Plan as a result of plan amendments, change in applicable Law or otherwise, which individually or in the aggregate would increase the amount of such excess.  No Beneficial Pension Plan is subject to, or has ever been subject to, the funding based restrictions in Internal Revenue Code Section 436(d).

(h)                                 All contributions required to be made to any Beneficial Benefit Plan by applicable Law or regulation or by any plan document or other contractual undertaking, and all premiums due or payable with respect to insurance policies funding any Beneficial Benefit Plan, for any period through the date hereof, have been timely made or paid in full or, to the extent not required to be made or paid on or before the date hereof, have been fully reflected on the Books and Records of Beneficial.

(i)                                     Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will (either alone or in conjunction with any other event) result in, cause the vesting, exercisability or delivery of, or increase in the amount or value of, any payment, right or other

22

benefit to any employee, officer, director or other service provider of any Beneficial Entity, or result in any (i) requirement to fund any benefits or set aside benefits in a trust (including a rabbi trust), (ii) limitation on the right of any Beneficial Entity to amend, merge, terminate or receive a reversion of assets from any Beneficial Benefit Plan or related trust, (iii) acceleration of the time of payment or vesting of any such payment, right, compensation or benefit, or (iv) entitlement by any recipient of any payment or benefit to receive a “gross up” payment for any income or other Taxes that might be owed with respect to such payment or benefit.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no amount paid or payable (whether in cash, in property, or in the form of benefits) by the Beneficial Entities in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby (either solely as a result thereof or as a result of such transactions in conjunction with any other event) will be an “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code.  Section 4.17(i) of Beneficial’s Disclosure Memorandum sets forth accurate and complete data with respect to each individual who has a contractual right to severance pay or benefits (or increase in severance pay or benefits, including the acceleration of any payment or vesting) triggered by a change in control and the amounts potentially payable to each such individual in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (either alone or in conjunction with any other event) or as a result of a termination of employment or service, taking into account any contractual provisions relating to Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code.  No Beneficial Benefit Plan provides for the gross-up or reimbursement of Taxes under Internal Revenue Code Section 4999 or 409A, or otherwise.

(j)                                    The Beneficial KSOP is the only Beneficial Benefit Plan that includes an employee stock ownership plan provision within the meaning of ERISA Section 407(d)(6)(A)).  All “employer securities” (as defined in Section 407(d)(1) of ERISA) at any time held by the Beneficial KSOP have at all times been “employer securities” as defined in Section 409(l)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code and “qualifying employer securities” as defined in Section 4975(e)(8) of the Internal Revenue Code and Section 407(d)(5) of ERISA.  The terms, provisions, use of the proceeds and repayment of any loan to the Beneficial KSOP satisfied in all respects the applicable requirements for an “exempt loan” within the meaning of Section 4975(d) of the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations thereunder.  Section 4.17(j) of Beneficial’s Disclosure Memorandum sets forth as of the date hereof the balance and other principal terms for any “exempt loan” within the meaning of Section 4975(d) of the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations thereunder. No Beneficial Entity has been subject to any unpaid Tax imposed by Internal Revenue Code Sections 4978 of 4979A.

4.18.                     Material Contracts.

Except as otherwise reflected in the Beneficial Financial Statements and the Beneficial SEC Reports, none of the Beneficial Entities, nor any of their respective Assets, businesses, or operations, is a party to, is bound by or subject to any Contract, (a) that is a “material contract” (as such term is defined in Item 601(b)(10) of Regulation S-K of the SEC) and that has not been filed as an exhibit to one of the Beneficial SEC Reports, (b) which prohibits or materially restricts any Beneficial Entity (or, following consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, WSFS) from engaging in any business activities in any geographic area, line of business or otherwise in competition with any other Person, (c) which limits the payment of dividends by any Beneficial Entity, (d) pursuant to which any Beneficial Entity has agreed with any third party to a change of control transaction such as an acquisition, divestiture or merger or contains a put, call or similar right involving the purchase or sale of any equity interests or Assets of any Person and which contains representations, covenants, indemnities or other obligations (including indemnification, “earn-out” or other contingent obligations) that are still in effect, (e) between any Beneficial Entity, on the one hand, and (i) any officer or director of any Beneficial Entity, or (ii) to the Knowledge of Beneficial, any (x) record or beneficial owner of five percent or more of the voting securities of Beneficial, (y) Affiliate or family member of any such officer, director or record or beneficial owner or (z) any other Affiliate of Beneficial, on the other hand, except those of a type available to employees of

Each Contract of the type described in this Section 4.18, whether or not set forth in Beneficial’s Disclosure Memorandum together with all Contracts referred to in Sections 4.12 and 4.17(a), are referred to herein as the “Beneficial Contracts.”  With respect to each Beneficial Contract: (i) the Contract is legal, valid and binding on a Beneficial Entity and is in full force and effect and is enforceable in accordance with its terms, (ii) no Beneficial Entity is in Default thereunder, (iii) no Beneficial Entity has repudiated or waived any material provision of any such Contract and (iv) no other party to any such Contract is, to the Knowledge of Beneficial, in Default or has repudiated or waived any material provision thereunder.  All of the Beneficial Contracts have been Previously Disclosed.  All of the indebtedness of any Beneficial Entity for money borrowed is prepayable at any time by such Beneficial Entity without penalty or premium.

4.19.                     Agreements with Regulatory Authorities.

4.20.                     Investment Securities.

(a)                                 Each Beneficial Entity has good title in all material respects to all securities and commodities owned by it (except those sold under repurchase agreements, borrowings of federal funds or borrowings from the Federal Reserve Banks or Federal Home Loan Banks or held in any fiduciary or agency capacity), free and clear of any Lien, except (i) as set forth in the financial statements included in the Beneficial SEC Reports and (ii) to the extent such securities or commodities are pledged in the Ordinary Course to secure obligations of a Beneficial Entity. Such securities are valued on the books of Beneficial in accordance with GAAP in all material respects.

(b)                                 Each Beneficial Entity employs, to the extent applicable, investment, securities, risk management and other policies, practices and procedures that Beneficial believes are prudent and reasonable in the context of their respective businesses, and each Beneficial Entity has, since January 1, 2015, been in compliance with such policies, practices and procedures in all material respects.

(d)                                 Subject to Section 7.2(d), neither the board of directors of Beneficial nor any committee thereof shall withhold, withdraw, qualify or modify, or propose publicly to withhold, withdraw, qualify or modify, in a manner adverse to WSFS, the Beneficial Recommendation or take any action, or make any public statement, filing or release inconsistent with the Beneficial Recommendation, or submit this Agreement to the Beneficial’s stockholders without recommendation (any of the foregoing being a “Change in the Beneficial Recommendation”).

(e)                                  Neither the board of directors of WSFS nor any committee thereof shall withhold, withdraw, qualify or modify, or propose publicly to withhold, withdraw, qualify or modify, in a manner adverse to Beneficial, the WSFS Recommendation or take any action, or make any public statement, filing or release inconsistent with the WSFS Recommendation, or submit this Agreement and the WSFS Share Issuance to the WSFS’s stockholders without recommendation (any of the foregoing being a “Change in the WSFS Recommendation”).

(f)                                   Beneficial or WSFS, as applicable, shall adjourn or postpone its respective stockholder meeting if, as of the time for which such meeting is scheduled there are insufficient shares of Beneficial Common Stock or WSFS Common Stock, as the case may be, represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of such meeting.  Beneficial or WSFS shall also adjourn or postpone its respective stockholder meeting if, as of the time for which such meeting is scheduled, Beneficial or WSFS, as the case may be, has not recorded proxies representing a sufficient number of shares necessary to obtain the Beneficial Stockholder Approval or the WSFS Stockholder Approval.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each of the WSFS Meeting and Beneficial Meeting shall be convened and this Agreement shall be submitted to the stockholders of each of WSFS and Beneficial at the WSFS Meeting and the Beneficial Meeting, respectively, for the purpose of voting on the approval of this Agreement and the WSFS Share Issuance, as applicable, and the other matters contemplated

45

hereby, and nothing contained herein shall be deemed to relieve either WSFS or Beneficial of such obligation.

7.2.                            Acquisition Proposals.

(a)                                 No Beneficial Entity shall, and it shall cause its Representatives not to, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, initiate, encourage (including by providing information or assistance), facilitate or induce any Acquisition Proposal, (ii) engage or participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish or cause to be furnished to any Person any confidential or nonpublic information or data in connection with, or take any other action to facilitate any inquiries or the making of any offer or proposal that constitutes, or may reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal, except to notify a Person that has made or, to the Knowledge of Beneficial, is making any inquiries with respect to, or is considering making, an Acquisition Proposal, of the existence of the provisions of this Section 7.2, (iii) approve, agree to, accept, endorse or recommend any Acquisition Proposal, or (iv) approve, agree to, accept, endorse or recommend, or propose to approve, agree to, accept, endorse or recommend any Acquisition Agreement contemplating or otherwise relating to any Acquisition Transaction.  Without limiting the foregoing, it is agreed that any violation of the restrictions set forth in this Section 7.2 by any Subsidiary or Representative of Beneficial shall constitute a breach of this Section 7.2 by Beneficial.  In addition to the foregoing, Beneficial shall not submit to the vote of its stockholders any Acquisition Proposal other than the Merger.

(b)                                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 7.2(a), if Beneficial or any of its Representatives receives an unsolicited, bona fide written Acquisition Proposal by any Person at any time prior to the Beneficial Stockholder Approval that did not result from or arise in connection with a breach of Section 7.2(a), Beneficial and its Representatives may, prior to (but not after) the Beneficial Meeting, take the following actions if the board of directors of Beneficial (or any committee thereof) has (i) determined, in its good faith judgment (after consultation with Beneficial’s financial advisors and outside legal counsel), that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal and that the failure to take such actions would reasonably likely cause it to violate its fiduciary duties under applicable Law, and (ii) obtained from such Person an executed confidentiality agreement containing terms at least as restrictive with respect to such Person as the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement is in each provision with respect to WSFS (and such confidentiality agreement shall not provide such Person with any exclusive right to negotiate with Beneficial): (A) furnish information or data to (but only if Beneficial shall have provided such information to WSFS prior to furnishing it to any such Person), and (B) enter into discussions and negotiations with, such Person with respect to such unsolicited, bona fide written Acquisition Proposal.

(c)                                  Promptly (but in no event more than 24 hours) following receipt of any Acquisition Proposal or any request for nonpublic information or any inquiry that would reasonably be expected to lead to any Acquisition Proposal, Beneficial shall advise WSFS in writing of the receipt of such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry, and the terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry (including, in each case, the identity of the Person making any such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry), and Beneficial shall as promptly as practicable provide to WSFS (i) a copy of such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry, if in writing, or (ii) a written summary of the material terms of such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry, if oral.  Beneficial shall provide WSFS as promptly as practicable (but in no event more than 24 hours) with notice setting forth all such information as is necessary to keep WSFS informed on a current basis of all developments, discussions, negotiations and communications regarding (including amendments or proposed amendments to) such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry.

(d)                                 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, at any time prior to the Beneficial Meeting, the board of directors of Beneficial may make a Change in the Beneficial Recommendation (including, for the avoidance of doubt, approving, endorsing or recommending any Acquisition Proposal),

46

if (i) Beneficial has received a Superior Proposal (after giving effect to the terms of any revised offer by WSFS pursuant to this Section 7.2(d)), and (ii) the board of directors of Beneficial has determined in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be a violation of the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided, that the board of directors of Beneficial may not take the actions set forth in this Section 7.2(d) unless:

(i)                                     Beneficial has complied in all material respects with this Section 7.2;

(ii)                                  Beneficial has provided WSFS at least three Business Days prior written notice of its intention to take such action and a reasonable description of the events or circumstances giving rise to its determination to take such action (including all necessary information under Section 7.2(c));

(iii)                               during such three Business Day period, Beneficial has and has caused its financial advisors and outside legal counsel to, consider and negotiate with WSFS in good faith (to the extent WSFS desires to so negotiate) regarding any proposals, adjustments or modifications to the terms and conditions of this Agreement proposed by WSFS; and

(iv)                              the board of directors of Beneficial has determined in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel and considering the results of such negotiations and giving effect to any proposals, amendments or modifications proposed to by WSFS, if any, that such Superior Proposal remains a Superior Proposal and that failure to make a Change in the Beneficial Recommendation would be a violation of the director’s fiduciary duties under applicable Law and, in which event, the board of directors of Beneficial may communicate the basis for its lack of Beneficial Recommendation to its stockholders in the Joint Proxy/Prospectus or an appropriate amendment or supplement thereto to the extent required by Law; provided, that the resolution approving this Agreement as of the date hereof may not be rescinded or amended.

Any material amendment to any Superior Proposal, will be deemed to be a new Superior Proposal for purposes of this Section 7.2(d) and will require a new determination and notice period as referred to in this Section 7.2(d).

(e)                                  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, at any time prior to the WSFS Meeting, the board of directors of WSFS may make a Change in the WSFS Recommendation, if the board of directors of WSFS has determined in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be a violation of the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided, that the board of directors of WSFS may not take the actions set forth in this Section 7.2(e) unless:

(i)                                     WSFS has provided Beneficial at least three Business Days prior written notice of its intention to take such action and a reasonable description of the events or circumstances giving rise to its determination to take such action;

(ii)                                  during such three Business Day period, WSFS has and has caused its financial advisors and outside legal counsel to, consider and negotiate with Beneficial in good faith (to the extent Beneficial desires to so negotiate) regarding any proposals, adjustments or modifications to the terms and conditions of this Agreement proposed by Beneficial; and

(iii)                               the board of directors of WSFS has determined in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel and considering the results of such negotiations and giving effect to any proposals, amendments or modifications proposed by Beneficial, if any, that failure to make a Change in the WSFS Recommendation would be a violation of the director’s fiduciary duties under

47

applicable Law and, in which event, the board of directors of WSFS may communicate the basis for its lack of WSFS Recommendation to its stockholders in the Joint Proxy/Prospectus or an appropriate amendment or supplement thereto to the extent required by Law; provided, that the resolution approving this Agreement as of the date hereof may not be rescinded or amended.

(f)                                   Beneficial and Beneficial Subsidiaries shall, and Beneficial shall direct its Representatives to, (i) immediately cease and cause to be terminated any and all existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any Persons conducted heretofore with respect to any offer or proposal that constitutes, or may reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal, (ii) request the prompt return or destruction of all confidential information previously furnished to any Person (other than WSFS and its Representatives) that has made or indicated an intention to make an Acquisition Proposal, and (iii) not waive or amend any “standstill” provision or provisions of similar effect to which it is a party or of which it is a beneficiary and shall strictly enforce any such provisions.

(g)                                  Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent Beneficial or its board of directors from complying with Rule 14d-9 and Rule 14e-2 under the Exchange Act or Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A with respect to an Acquisition Proposal or from making any legally required disclosure to the stockholders of Beneficial; provided, that such rules will in no way eliminate or modify the effect that any action pursuant to such rules would otherwise have under this Agreement.

7.3.                            Exchange Listing.

WSFS shall use its reasonable best efforts to list, prior to the Effective Time, on Nasdaq, subject to official notice of issuance, the shares of WSFS Common Stock to be issued to the holders of Beneficial Common Stock pursuant to the Merger, and WSFS shall give all notices and make all filings with Nasdaq required in connection with the transactions contemplated herein.

7.4.                            Consents of Regulatory Authorities.

(a)                                 WSFS and Beneficial shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, cooperate and use their respective reasonable best efforts to prepare all documentation, to effect all applications, notices and filings and to obtain all Permits and Consents, of all third parties and Regulatory Authorities that are necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the Mergers), and to comply with the terms and conditions of all such Permits and Consents of all such third parties and Regulatory Authorities.  Each of WSFS and Beneficial shall use its reasonable best efforts to resolve objections, if any, which may be asserted with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby under any applicable Law or Order or by any Regulatory Authority. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any WSFS Entities be required, and the Beneficial Entities shall not be permitted (without WSFS’s prior written consent in its sole discretion), to take any action, or commit to take any action, or to accept any restriction, commitment or condition, involving the WSFS Entities or the Beneficial Entities, which would reasonably be expected to be materially financially burdensome to the business, operations, financial condition or results of operations on WSFS’s business or on the business of Beneficial or Beneficial Bank (which restriction, commitment, or condition could include materially increasing capital, divesting or reducing lines of businesses or asset classes, entering into compliance or remediation programs, and making material lending or investment commitments) (any such condition, commitment or restriction, a “Burdensome Condition”).

(b)                                 Each of WSFS and Beneficial shall have the right to review in advance, and to the extent practicable each will consult with the other, in each case subject to applicable Laws relating to the exchange of information, with respect to, all written information submitted to any third party or Regulatory Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, provided, that Beneficial shall not

48

have the right to review portions of material filed by WSFS with a Regulatory Authority that contain competitively sensitive business or other proprietary information or confidential supervisory information filed under a claim of confidentiality.  In exercising the foregoing right, each of the Parties agrees to act reasonably and as promptly as practicable.  Each Party agrees that it will consult with the other Party with respect to the obtaining of all Permits and Consents of third parties and Regulatory Authorities necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and each Party will keep the other Party apprised of the status of matters relating to completion of the transactions contemplated hereby, including promptly advising the other Party upon receiving any communication from a Regulatory Authority the Consent of which is required for the consummation of the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement that causes such Party to believe that there is a reasonable likelihood that any required Consent from a Regulatory Authority will not be obtained or that the receipt of such Consent may be materially delayed.  Each Party shall consult with the other in advance of any meeting or conference with any Regulatory Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and, to the extent permitted by such Regulatory Authority, give the other Party and/or its counsel the opportunity to attend and participate in such meetings and conferences.

(c)                                  Each Party agrees, upon request, subject to applicable Laws, to promptly furnish the other Party with all information concerning itself, its Subsidiaries, directors, officers and stockholders and such other matters as may reasonably be necessary or advisable in connection with any filing, notice or application made by or on behalf of such other Party or any of its Subsidiaries to any third party and/or Regulatory Authority.

7.5.                            Access to Information; Confidentiality and Notification of Certain Matters.

(a)                                 Beneficial and WSFS shall each promptly advise the other of any fact, change, event or circumstance (i) that has had or would reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on it or (ii) which it believes would or would reasonably be likely to cause or constitute a material breach of any of its representations, warranties or covenants contained herein or that reasonably could be expected to give rise, individually or in the aggregate, to the failure of a condition in ARTICLE 8; provided, that any failure to give notice in accordance with the foregoing with respect to any breach shall not be deemed to constitute a violation of this Section 7.5(a) or the failure of any condition set forth in Section 8.2 or 8.3 to be satisfied, or otherwise constitute a breach of this Agreement by the Party failing to give such notice, in each case unless the underlying breach would independently result in a failure of the conditions set forth in Section 8.2 or 8.3 to be satisfied.

(b)                                 Prior to the Effective Time, each of Beneficial and WSFS shall, and shall cause each of their respective Subsidiaries to, afford to the Representatives of the other Party, access during normal business hours to its books, records, Contracts, properties and personnel and such other information as the other Party may reasonably request and furnish to the other Party promptly all other information concerning its business, properties and personnel as the other Party may reasonably request, provided, that such access or requests shall not unreasonably interfere with normal operations of the Party.  No investigation by either Party shall affect or be deemed to modify or waive any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement, or the conditions to such Party’s obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Neither Beneficial nor WSFS nor any of their respective Subsidiaries shall be required to provide access to or to disclose information where such access or disclosure would violate or prejudice the rights of Beneficial’s or WSFS’s, as the case may be, customers, jeopardize the attorney-client privilege of the institution in possession or control of such information (after giving due consideration to the existence of any common interest, joint defense or similar agreement between the Parties) or contravene any Law, fiduciary duty or binding Contract entered into prior to the date of this Agreement. The Parties will make appropriate substitute disclosure arrangements under circumstances in which the restrictions of the preceding sentence apply.

49

(c)                                  Each Party shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and Representatives to, hold and use any information obtained in connection with this Agreement and in pursuit of the transactions contemplated hereby in accordance with the terms of the letter agreement, dated May 29, 2018, between WSFS and Beneficial (the “Confidentiality Agreement”).

7.6.                            Press Releases.

Beneficial and WSFS shall consult with each other before issuing any press release or other public disclosure or communication (including communications to employees, agents and contractors) related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and shall not issue such press release or other public disclosure without the prior written consent of the other Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); provided, that nothing in this Section 7.6 shall be deemed to prohibit any Party from making any press release or other public disclosure as may upon the advice of outside counsel be required by Law or the rules or regulations of any United States or non-United States securities exchange, in which case the Party required to make the release or disclosure shall use its reasonable best efforts to allow the other Party reasonable time to comment on such release or disclosure in advance of the issuance thereof.  The Parties have agreed upon the form of a joint press release announcing the execution of this Agreement.

7.7.                            Tax Treatment.

(a)                                 Each of the Parties intends, and undertakes and agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Merger and the Bank Merger, and to take no action which would cause the Merger and the Bank Merger not, to each qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code for federal income tax purposes. The Parties adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-2(g) and for purposes of Sections 354 and 361 of the Internal Revenue Code.

(b)                                 Each of the Parties shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause their appropriate officers to execute and deliver to Covington & Burling LLP, certificates containing appropriate representations and covenants, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to such counsel, at such time or times as may reasonably be requested by such counsel, including as of the effective date of the Joint Proxy/Prospectus and the Closing Date, in connection with such counsel’s deliveries of opinions with respect to the Tax treatment of the Merger and the Bank Merger.

(c)                                  Unless otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, each of WSFS and Beneficial shall report the Merger and the Bank Merger as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code and shall not take any inconsistent position therewith in any Tax Return.

7.8.                            Employee Benefits and Contracts.

(a)                                 For a period of one year following the Effective Time, except as contemplated by this Agreement, WSFS shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, provide to employees who are actively employed by a Beneficial Entity on the Closing Date (“Covered Employees”) while employed by WSFS following the Closing Date (i) a base salary or wage rate, as applicable, that is no less than either the base salary or wage rate, as applicable, provided to the Covered Employees immediately prior to the Closing Date or, in WSFS’s sole discretion, the base salary or wage rate, as applicable, provided by WSFS and its Subsidiaries to their similarly situated employees, (ii) target cash bonus opportunities that are no less favorable than the target cash bonus opportunities that are made available to the Covered Employees immediately prior to the Closing Date or, in WSFS’s sole discretion, that are generally made available to

50

similarly situated employees of WSFS and its Subsidiaries and (iii) employee benefits under WSFS Benefit Plans, on terms and conditions which are, in the aggregate, substantially comparable to those provided by WSFS Entities to their similarly situated employees; provided, that in no event shall any Covered Employee be eligible to participate in any closed or frozen plan of any WSFS Entity. Until such time as WSFS shall cause the Covered Employees to participate in the applicable WSFS Benefit Plans, the continued participation of the Covered Employees in the Beneficial Benefit Plans shall be deemed to satisfy the foregoing provisions of this clause (it being understood that participation in WSFS Benefit Plans may commence at different times with respect to each of WSFS Benefit Plans).  For purposes of determining eligibility to participate and vesting under WSFS Benefit Plans, and for purposes of determining a Covered Employee’s entitlement to paid time off under WSFS’s paid time off program, the service of the Covered Employees with a Beneficial Entity prior to the Effective Time shall be treated as service with a WSFS Entity participating in such WSFS Benefit Plans, to the same extent that such service was recognized by the Beneficial Entities for purposes of a similar benefit plan; provided, that such recognition of service shall not (i) operate to duplicate any benefits of a Covered Employee with respect to the same period of service or (ii) apply for purposes of any plan, program or arrangement (x) under which similarly-situated employees of WSFS Entities do not receive credit for prior service, (y) that is grandfathered or frozen, either with respect to level of benefits or participation, or (z) for purposes of retiree medical benefits or level of benefits under a defined benefit pension plan.

(b)                                 From and after the Effective Time, without limiting the generality of Section 7.8(a), with respect to each Covered Employee (and their beneficiaries) WSFS shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each life, disability, medical, dental or health plan of WSFS or its Subsidiaries in which each such Covered Employee becomes eligible to participate (to the extent permitted by the applicable carrier) to (i) waive any preexisting condition limitations to the extent such conditions were covered under the applicable life, disability, medical, dental or health plans of the Beneficial Entities, (ii) provide credit under medical, dental and health plans for any deductibles, co-payment and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Covered Employees (and their beneficiaries) under analogous plans of the Beneficial Entities prior to the Effective Time during the portion of the applicable plan year prior to participation, and (iii) waive any waiting period limitation, actively-at-work requirement or evidence of insurability requirement that would otherwise be applicable to such Covered Employees and their beneficiaries on or after the Effective Time to the extent such employee or beneficiary had satisfied any similar limitation or requirement under an analogous plan prior to the Effective Time.

(c)                                  Upon request by WSFS in writing no later than 45 days prior to the Closing Date, the Beneficial Entities shall cooperate in good faith with WSFS prior to the Closing Date to provide additional information regarding any Beneficial Benefit Plan to WSFS or participation therein and to amend, freeze, terminate or modify any Beneficial Benefit Plan to the extent and in the manner determined by WSFS effective upon the Closing Date (or at such different time mutually agreed to by the Parties) and consistent with applicable Law.  Beneficial shall provide WSFS with a copy of the resolutions, plan amendments, notices and other documents prepared to effectuate the actions contemplated by this Section 7.8(c), as applicable, and give Beneficial a reasonable opportunity to comment on such documents (which comments shall be considered in good faith), and prior to the Closing Date, Beneficial shall provide WSFS with the final documentation evidencing that the actions contemplated herein have been effectuated.

(d)                                 Without limiting the generality of Section 10.4, nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any Person, including any current or former employee, officer, director or consultant of Beneficial or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, any rights, remedies, obligations, or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement.  In no event shall the terms of this Agreement: (i) establish, amend, or modify any Beneficial Benefit Plan or any “employee benefit plan” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, or any other benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement maintained or sponsored by WSFS, Beneficial or any of their respective Affiliates, (ii) alter or limit the ability of Surviving Corporation, WSFS

51

or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates to amend, modify or terminate any Beneficial Benefit Plan, employment agreement or any other benefit or employment plan, program, agreement or arrangement after the Closing Date, or (iii) confer upon any current or former employee, officer, director or consultant of Beneficial or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, any right to employment or continued employment or continued service with WSFS or any WSFS Subsidiaries, the Surviving Corporation or the Beneficial Entities, or constitute or create an employment agreement with any employee, or interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of the Surviving Corporation, Beneficial, WSFS or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof to discharge or terminate the services of any employee, officer, director or consultant of Beneficial or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause.

(e)                                  On the Closing Date, Beneficial shall provide WSFS with a list of employees who have suffered an “employment loss” (as defined in the WARN Act) in the 90 days preceding the Closing Date or had a reduction in hours of a least 50% in the 180 days preceding the Closing Date, each identified by date of employment loss or reduction in hours, employing entity and facility location.

(f)                                   WSFS shall maintain and administer the retention pool with the terms and conditions set forth in Exhibit E for the employees of Beneficial and Beneficial Bank listed in Exhibit E.

(g)                                  No later than 30 days prior to the Closing Date, Beneficial shall take the actions described on Section 7.8(g) of Beneficial’s Disclosure Memorandum with respect to the employment agreements listed in such section.

(h)                                 To the extent any payments or benefits made with respect to, or which could arise as a result of, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, could be characterized as an “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code, Beneficial shall, prior to the Closing Date, cooperate in good faith with WSFS to effect reasonable measures to minimize any such payments or benefits from being characterized as “excess parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code.

(i)                                     WSFS shall assume the Severance Pay Plan for Eligible Employees of Beneficial Bank as in effect on the date hereof (the “Beneficial Severance Plan”) and shall provide to Covered Employees whose employment is terminated without cause by WSFS, the Surviving Corporation or an Affiliate on or before December 31, 2019, to the extent otherwise eligible under the Beneficial Severance Plan, the benefits provided therein, subject to the terms and conditions thereof.

(j)                                    WSFS shall provide Covered Employees whose employment is involuntarily terminated by WSFS other than for cause prior to December 31, 2019, and who so requests, job counseling and outplacement assistance services, consistent with industry standards and the job counseling and outplacement assistance services provided by WSFS and its Subsidiaries to their similarly situated employees. In addition, WSFS shall notify Covered Employees whose employment is involuntarily terminated by WSFS other than for cause prior to December 31, 2019, who want to be so notified of opportunities for positions with WSFS or any of its Subsidiaries for which WSFS reasonably believes such persons are qualified and shall consider any application for such positions submitted by such persons; provided, however, that any decision to offer employment to any such person shall be made in the sole discretion of WSFS. Outplacement assistance and job counseling services shall not be provided to Beneficial employees who are terminated for cause, resignation, disability or retirement.

7.9.                            Indemnification.

(a)                                 From and after the Effective Time, each of WSFS and the Surviving Corporation shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each present and former director, officer or employee of the Beneficial

52

Entities (each, an “Indemnified Party”), against all costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgements, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, arbitration, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to, the fact that such person is or was a director, officer or employee of any of the Beneficial Entities or, at Beneficial’s request, of another corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise and pertaining to matters, acts or omissions existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including matters, acts or omissions occurring in connection with the approval of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (each a “Claim”), whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law (and WSFS or the Surviving Corporation shall also advance expenses as incurred to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law; provided, that the Indemnified Party to whom expenses are advanced provides a written undertaking to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification).

(b)                                 WSFS shall maintain in effect for a period of six years after the Effective Time Beneficial’s existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy (provided, that WSFS may substitute therefor (i) policies of at least the same coverage and amounts containing terms and conditions which are substantially no less advantageous to the insured or (ii) with the consent of Beneficial given prior to the Effective Time, any other policy) with respect to Claims arising from facts or events which occurred prior to the Effective Time; provided, that WSFS shall not be obligated to make aggregate premium payments for such six-year period in respect of such policy (or coverage replacing such policy) which exceed, for the portion related to Beneficial’s directors and officers, 275% of the annual premium payments currently paid on Beneficial’s current policy in effect as of the date of this Agreement (the “Maximum Amount”).  If the amount of the premiums necessary to maintain or procure such insurance coverage exceeds the Maximum Amount, WSFS shall use its reasonable best efforts to maintain the most advantageous policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance obtainable for a premium equal to the Maximum Amount. In lieu of the foregoing, WSFS, or Beneficial in consultation with WSFS, may obtain on or prior to the Effective Time, a six-year “tail” prepaid policy providing equivalent coverage to that described in this Section 7.9(b) at a premium not to exceed the Maximum Amount.  If the premium necessary to purchase such “tail” prepaid policy exceeds the Maximum Amount, WSFS, or Beneficial in consultation with WSFS, may purchase the most advantageous “tail” prepaid policy obtainable for a premium less than or equal to the Maximum Amount, and in each case, WSFS shall have no further obligations under this Section 7.9(b) other than to maintain such “tail” prepaid policy.

(c)                                  Any Indemnified Party wishing to claim indemnification under Section 7.9(a), upon learning of any such Claim, shall promptly notify WSFS thereof (but the failure to so notify WSFS shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have under this Section 7.9, except to the extent such failure materially prejudices WSFS).  In the event of any such Claim (whether arising before or after the Effective Time): (i) WSFS or Surviving Corporation shall have the right to assume the defense thereof and, upon such assumption, WSFS and Surviving Corporation shall not be liable to such Indemnified Parties for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Parties in connection with the defense thereof (except that if WSFS elects not to assume such defense, or counsel for the Indemnified Party reasonably advises the Indemnified Party that there are or may be (whether or not any have yet actually arisen) issues that raise conflicts of interest between WSFS and the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party may retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to WSFS, and WSFS shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel), (ii) the Indemnified Parties will cooperate in the defense of any such matter, and (iii) WSFS and Surviving Corporation shall not be liable for any settlement effected without its prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); and provided, further, that WSFS and Surviving Corporation shall not have any obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Party when and if a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine, and such determination

53

shall have become final, that the indemnification of such Indemnified Party in the manner contemplated hereby is prohibited by applicable Law.

(d)                                 If WSFS or any successors or assigns shall consolidate with or merge into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving Person of such consolidation or merger or if WSFS (or any successors or assigns) shall transfer all or substantially all of its Assets to any Person, then and in each case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of WSFS shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 7.9.

(e)                                  The provisions of this Section 7.9 are intended to be for the benefit of and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Party and their respective heirs and Representatives.

7.10.                     Operating Functions.

Beneficial and Beneficial Bank shall cooperate with WSFS and WSFS Bank in connection with planning for the efficient and orderly combination of the Parties and the operation of the Surviving Bank, and in preparing for the consolidation of appropriate operating functions to be effective at the Effective Time or such later date as WSFS may decide.  Each Party shall cooperate with the other Party in preparing to execute after the Effective Time conversion or consolidation of systems and business operations generally (including by entering into customary confidentiality, non-disclosure and similar agreements with such service providers or the other Party).  Nothing contained in this Agreement shall give either Party, directly or indirectly, the right to control or direct the operations of the other Party prior to the Effective Time. Prior to the Effective Time, each Party shall exercise, consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, complete control and supervision over its and its Subsidiaries’ respective operations.

7.11.                     Stockholder Litigation.

Each of Beneficial and WSFS shall promptly notify each other in writing of any action, arbitration, audit, hearing, investigation, litigation, suit, subpoena or summons issued, commenced, brought, conducted or heard by or before, or otherwise involving, any Regulatory Authority or arbitrator pending or, to the Knowledge of Beneficial or WSFS, as applicable, threatened against Beneficial, WSFS or any of their respective Subsidiaries that (a) questions or would reasonably be expected to question the validity of this Agreement or the other agreements contemplated hereby or thereby or any actions taken or to be taken by Beneficial, WSFS or their respective Subsidiaries with respect hereto or thereto or (b) seeks to enjoin or otherwise restrain the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. Beneficial shall give WSFS every opportunity to participate at its own expense in the defense or settlement of any stockholder litigation against Beneficial or its directors relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and no such settlement shall be agreed to without WSFS’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

7.12.                     Legal Conditions to Mergers; Additional Agreements.

Subject to Sections 7.1 and 7.4 of this Agreement, each of Beneficial and WSFS shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use their reasonable best efforts (a) to take, or cause to be taken, all actions necessary, proper or advisable to comply promptly with all legal and regulatory requirements that may be imposed on such Party or its Subsidiaries with respect to the Mergers and, subject to the conditions set forth in ARTICLE 8 hereof, to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (b) to obtain (and to cooperate with the other Party to obtain) any Consent or Order by any Regulatory Authority and any other third party that is required to be obtained by Beneficial or WSFS or any of their respective Subsidiaries in connection with, or to effect, the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  In case at any time after the Effective Time any further action is necessary or desirable to carry

54

out the purposes of this Agreement (including, any merger between a Subsidiary of WSFS, on the one hand, and a Subsidiary of Beneficial, on the other hand) or to vest the Surviving Corporation and the Surviving Bank with full title to all properties, assets, rights, approvals, immunities and franchises of any of the Parties to the Mergers, the proper officers and directors of each Party and their respective Subsidiaries shall take all such necessary action as may reasonably be requested by WSFS.

7.13.                     Dividends.

After the date of this Agreement, each of WSFS and Beneficial shall coordinate with the other regarding the declaration of any dividends in respect of WSFS Common Stock and Beneficial Common Stock and the record dates and payment dates relating thereto, it being the intention of the Parties that holders of Beneficial Common Stock shall not receive two dividends, or fail to receive one dividend, in any quarter with respect to their shares of Beneficial Common Stock and any shares of WSFS Common Stock any such holder receives in exchange therefor in the Merger.

7.14.                     Change of Method.

WSFS may at any time change the method of effecting the combination of the Beneficial and WSFS (including by providing for the merger of Beneficial with a wholly owned Subsidiary of WSFS) if and to the extent requested by WSFS, and Beneficial agrees to enter into such amendments to this Agreement as WSFS may reasonably request in order to give effect to such restructuring; provided, that no such change or amendment shall (i) alter or change the amount or kind of the Merger Consideration provided for in this Agreement, (ii) adversely affect the Tax treatment of the Mergers with respect to Beneficial’s stockholders, or (iii) materially delay or impede the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

7.15.                     Restructuring Efforts.

If either Beneficial or WSFS shall have failed to obtain the Beneficial Stockholder Approval or the WSFS Stockholder Approval, as applicable, at the duly convened Beneficial Meeting or WSFS Meeting, as applicable, or any adjournment or postponement thereof, each of the Parties shall in good faith use its reasonable best efforts to negotiate a restructuring of the transaction provided for herein (it being understood that neither Party shall have any obligation to alter or change any material terms, including the amount or kind of the Merger Consideration, in a manner adverse to such Party or its stockholders or adversely affect the Tax treatment of the Mergers with respect to the Beneficial’s stockholders) and/or resubmit this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (or as restructured pursuant to this Section 7.15) to its respective stockholders for approval.

7.16.                     Corporate Governance.

(a)                                 On or prior to the Effective Time, the board of directors of WSFS and WSFS Bank shall cause the number of directors that will comprise the full board of directors of each of the Surviving Corporation and the Surviving Bank at the Effective Time to be increased by three members, and as of the Effective Time shall appoint Gerald P. Cuddy and two other directors of Beneficial’s board of directors to the board of directors of the Surviving Corporation and the Surviving Bank as mutually agreed by Beneficial and WSFS (the “Beneficial Directors”).  Each such Beneficial Director shall be appointed to a class of the board of directors of the Surviving Corporation as mutually agreed by Beneficial and WSFS.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, WSFS’s obligation to appoint each Beneficial Director is subject to each Beneficial Director’s compliance with WSFS’s governance and ethics policies in place from time to time, as reasonably determined by WSFS’s Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee.

55

(b)                                 As promptly as practicable following the Effective Time, WSFS shall establish an advisory board (the “Advisory Board”) and invite Rodger Levenson, Gerard P. Cuddy, and those individuals who serve on the board of directors of Beneficial as of the date hereof who are not Beneficial Directors to join such Advisory Board. The function of the Advisory Board shall be, among other things, to advise WSFS with respect to Beneficial. The Advisory Board shall meet on a quarterly basis (or more frequently if necessary) from and after the Effective Time until December 31, 2019 and each member of the Advisory Board (other than Rodger Levenson and Gerard P. Cuddy) shall be paid a retainer fee of $50,000.

7.17.                     Takeover Statutes.

Neither WSFS nor Beneficial shall take any action that would cause any Takeover Statute to become applicable to this Agreement, the Mergers, or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby, and each of WSFS and Beneficial shall take all necessary steps to exempt (or ensure the continued exemption of) the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated hereby from any applicable Takeover Statute now or hereafter in effect.  If any Takeover Statute may become, or may purport to be, applicable to the transactions contemplated hereby, each of WSFS and Beneficial will grant such approvals and take such actions as are necessary so that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated hereby and otherwise act to eliminate or minimize the effects of any Takeover Statute on any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, if necessary, challenging the validity or applicability of any such Takeover Statute.

7.18.                     Exemption from Liability Under Section 16(b).

Beneficial and WSFS agree that, in order to most effectively compensate and retain those officers and directors of Beneficial subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act (the “Beneficial Insiders”), both prior to and after the Effective Time, it is desirable that Beneficial Insiders not be subject to a risk of liability under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law in connection with the conversion of shares of Beneficial Common Stock in the Merger, and for that compensatory and retentive purposes agree to the provisions of this Section 7.18.  The boards of directors of WSFS and of Beneficial, or a committee of non-employee directors thereof (as such term is defined for purposes of Rule 16b-3(d) under the Exchange Act), shall promptly, and in any event prior to the Effective Time, take all such steps as may be necessary or appropriate to cause (i) any dispositions of Beneficial Common Stock and (ii) any acquisitions of WSFS Common Stock pursuant to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and by any Beneficial Insiders who, immediately following the Merger, will be officers or directors of the Surviving Corporation subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, to be exempt from liability pursuant to Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, and notwithstanding the approval of this Agreement by the stockholders of Beneficial or by the stockholders of WSFS, this Agreement may be terminated and the Mergers abandoned at any time prior to the Effective Time:

(a)                                 by mutual written agreement of WSFS and Beneficial;

(b)                                 by either Party, by written notice to the other Party, in the event (i) any Regulatory Authority has denied a Requisite Regulatory Approval and such denial has become final and nonappealable, or any Regulatory Authority shall have issued an order, decree or ruling or taken any other action permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the Mergers, and such order, decree, ruling or other action has become final and nonappealable; provided, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1(b) shall not be available to any Party whose failure to comply with Section 7.5 or any other provision of this Agreement has been the cause of, or resulted in, such action, (ii) the stockholders of Beneficial fail to vote their approval of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby at the Beneficial Meeting where such matters were presented to such stockholders for approval and voted upon (taking into account any adjournment or postponement thereof as required by this Agreement) or (iii) the stockholders of WSFS fail to vote their approval of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby at the WSFS Meeting where such matters were presented to such stockholders for approval and voted upon (taking into account any adjournment or postponement thereof as required by this Agreement);

(c)                                  by either Party, by written notice to the other Party, in the event that the Mergers shall not have been consummated by the first anniversary of the date of this Agreement, if the failure to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby on or before such date is not caused by any breach of this Agreement by the Party electing to terminate pursuant to this Section 9.1(c);

(d)                                 by WSFS, by written notice to Beneficial, in the event that the board of directors of Beneficial has (i) failed to make the Beneficial Recommendation or otherwise effected a Change in the Beneficial Recommendation, (ii) breached its obligations under Section 7.2, or (iii) breached its obligations under Section 7.1 by failing to call, give notice of, convene or hold the Beneficial Meeting in accordance with Section 7.1;

(e)                                  by Beneficial, by written notice to WSFS, in the event that the board of directors of WSFS has (i) failed to make the WSFS Recommendation or otherwise effected a Change in the WSFS Recommendation or (ii) breached its obligations under Section 7.1 by failing to call, give notice of, convene or hold the WSFS Meeting in accordance with Section 7.1;

(f)                                   by either Party, by written notice to the other Party (provided that the terminating Party is not then in material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement contained herein), if there shall have been a breach of any of the covenants or agreements or any of the representations or warranties (or any such representation or warranty shall cease to be true) set forth in this Agreement on the part of Beneficial, in the case of a termination by WSFS, or WSFS, in the case of a termination by Beneficial, which breach or failure to be true, either individually or in the aggregate with all other breaches by such Party (or failures of such representations or warranties to be true), would constitute, if occurring or continuing on the Closing Date, the failure of a condition set forth in Section 8.2, in the case of a termination by WSFS, or Section 8.3, in the case of a termination by Beneficial, and which is not cured within 45 days following written notice to Beneficial, in the case of a termination by WSFS, or WSFS, in the case of a

59

termination by Beneficial, or by its nature or timing cannot be cured during such period (or such fewer days as remain prior to the date specified in Section 9.1(c));

(g)                                  By WSFS, if either or all of the Federal Reserve, FDIC, OCC or PDBS has granted a Requisite Regulatory Approval but such Requisite Regulatory Approval contains, or shall have resulted in or would reasonably be expected to result in, the imposition of a Burdensome Condition; provided, that WSFS may only terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1(g) if WSFS shall have used its reasonable best efforts until the earlier of (i) 60 days following the grant of such Requisite Regulatory Approval containing a Burdensome Condition, or (ii) the one-year anniversary of the date of this Agreement, to cause the terms and/or conditions of such Requisite Regulatory Approval containing such Burdensome Condition to be deleted or removed;

(h)                                 By either Party if either or all of the Federal Reserve, FDIC, OCC or PDBS shall have requested in writing that WSFS, WSFS Bank, Beneficial, Beneficial Bank or any of their respective Affiliates withdraw (other than for technical reasons), and not be permitted to resubmit within 60 days, any application with respect to a Requisite Regulatory Approval; or

(i)                                     By Beneficial, at any time during the five Business Day period commencing with the Determination Date, if both of the following conditions are satisfied:

(i)                                     The number obtained by dividing the Average Closing Price by the Starting Price (the “WSFS Ratio”) shall be less than 0.80; and

(ii)                                  (x) the WSFS Ratio shall be less than (y) the number obtained by dividing the Final Index Price by the Index Price on the Starting Date and subtracting 0.20 from the quotient in this clause (ii)(y) (such number in this clause (ii)(y) being referred to herein as the “Index Ratio”),

subject, however, to the following three sentences. If Beneficial elects to exercise its termination right pursuant to this Section 9.1(i), it shall give written notice to WSFS (provided that such notice of election to terminate may be withdrawn at any time within the aforementioned five Business Day period). During the five Business Day period commencing with its receipt of such notice, WSFS shall have the option to increase the consideration to be received by the Holders hereunder, by adjusting the Exchange Ratio (calculated to the nearest one one-thousandth) to equal the lesser of (x) a number (rounded to the nearest one ten-thousandth) obtained by dividing (A) the product of the Starting Price, 0.80 and the Exchange Ratio (as then in effect) by (B) the Average Closing Price and (y) a number (rounded to the nearest one one-thousandth) obtained by dividing (A) the product of the Index Ratio and the Exchange Ratio (as then in effect) by (B) the WSFS Ratio. If WSFS so elects within such five Business Day period, it shall give prompt written notice to Beneficial of such election and the revised Exchange Ratio, whereupon no termination shall have occurred pursuant to this Section 9.1(i) and this Agreement shall remain in effect in accordance with its terms (except as the Exchange Ratio shall have been so modified).

For purposes of this Section 9.1(i) the following terms shall have the meanings indicated:

“Final Index Price” shall mean the average of the Index Prices for the ten consecutive full trading days ending at the close of trading on the Determination Date.

“Index Price” shall mean the closing price on such date of the Nasdaq Bank Index.

“Starting Date” shall mean the last trading day immediately preceding the date of the first public announcement of entry into this Agreement.

60

“Starting Price” shall mean the closing price of a share of WSFS Common Stock on Nasdaq (as reported by Nasdaq, or if not reported thereby, any another authoritative source) on the Starting Date.

9.2.         Effect of Termination.

In the event of the termination and abandonment of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1, this Agreement shall become void and have no effect, except that (i) the provisions of this Section 9.2, Section 7.5(c), and ARTICLE 10, shall survive any such termination and abandonment and (ii) no such termination shall relieve the breaching Party from Liability resulting from any fraud or breach by that Party of this Agreement.

9.3.         Non-Survival of Representations and Covenants.

The respective representations, warranties, obligations, covenants, and agreements of the Parties shall not survive the Effective Time except this Section 9.3, Sections 7.5, 7.7, 7.8 and 7.9, and ARTICLE 1, ARTICLE 2, ARTICLE 3, and ARTICLE 10, which shall survive in accordance with their respective terms.

Any term or provision of this Agreement which is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction.  If any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable.
