Exhibit 99.2


SERVICES AND CONSULTING AGREEMENT
THIS SERVICES AND CONSULTING AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of this 3rd day of March, 2021, by and between Malvern Bancorp., Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation (“Malvern”) and Lawrence B. Seidman, an individual (“Consultant”). Malvern and Consultant may each be referred to herein as a “Party”, and collectively as the “Parties”.
WHEREAS, Consultant asserts that Consultant has expertise with respect to matters pertaining to banking institutions similarly situated to Malvern, and that Consultant can provide Malvern with certain advice in connection with Malvern’s operations and strategic plans, including, without limitation, advising Malvern’s management with respect to capital management, shareholder value enhancement, investor engagement, and special assets strategies and execution (together, the “Services”); and
WHEREAS, Malvern wishes to engage Consultant on a non-exclusive basis to perform the Services, and Consultant wishes to perform the Services for Malvern on a non-exclusive basis, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
SERVICES, TERM, COMPENSATION
Section I.1 Services; Compensation. Malvern hereby engages Consultant to perform, and Consultant agrees to perform, the Services.  In consideration of the Services to be provided by Consultant under this Agreement, Malvern shall pay to Consultant a consulting fee of Four Thousand Dollars ($4,000) per month (the “Fee”), payable on the last business day of each month.  To the extent this Agreement commences on a date other than the first day of the month, or expires or is terminated on a day other than the last day of the month, the Fee shall be prorated accordingly for the actual number of days this Agreement is in effect for any such month.
Section I.2 Term of Agreement.  Unless earlier terminated in accordance with the terms hereof, or extended by written agreement of the Parties, this Agreement will be in effect through September 30, 2021 (the “Term”).
Section I.3 Taxes.  Consultant accepts full responsibility for any and all taxes, including, but not limited to, federal, state and local taxes, and unemployment, disability, Medicare and FICA withholding obligations that may be payable by Consultant to any governmental unit or agency resulting from any payment, distribution or the like under this Agreement and agrees to indemnify and hold Malvern and its banking subsidiary, Malvern Bank, National Association (“Malvern Bank”), harmless from any and all liability Consultant may have due to such taxes and obligations.
ARTICLE II
EXECUTION OF SERVICES
Section II.1 Execution and Progress of the Services.
a. Consultant will perform the Services and cooperate with Malvern in scheduling and performing the Services and will apply Consultant’s commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with industry standards, to avoid conflict or delay in or interference with the work of Malvern.
b. Any written materials or other statements used or provided by Consultant to any third-party in connection with the provision of Services shall be previously approved in writing by Malvern.
c. Consultant will pay for all of Consultant’s own travel, out-of-pocket expenses, materials, equipment and labor used in connection with Consultant’s performance of the Services under this Agreement, unless otherwise agreed to in advance and in writing by Malvern.
d. If requested by Malvern, Consultant will furnish to Malvern periodic progress reports on the Services performed by Consultant.
Section IV.3 No Public Announcements.  No Party to this Agreement shall cause, discuss, cooperate or otherwise aid in the preparation of any press release or other publicity concerning this Agreement without the prior written approval of the other Party.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall restrict a Party from making disclosures as may be required under applicable securities laws.
Section IV.4 Equitable Relief.  Consultant acknowledges that a breach or threatened breach of any provisions of this Article IV would give rise to irreparable harm to Malvern, for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy, and hereby agrees that in the event of a breach or a threatened breach by Consultant of any such obligations, Malvern shall, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies that may be available to it in respect of such breach, be entitled to equitable relief, including a temporary restraining order, an injunction, specific performance and any other relief that may be available from a court of competent jurisdiction (without any requirement to post bond).
ARTICLE V
RELATIONSHIP OF PARTIES
Section V.1 Independent Contractor.
a. Nothing contained in this Agreement will constitute a partnership or a joint venture between the Parties.  Consultant will not represent Consultant to be other than an independent contractor, and neither Party will become liable for any representation, act or omission of the other contrary to this provision.  Consultant will have no authority to enter into agreements on behalf of Malvern or otherwise legally bind Malvern and will not represent Consultant to be an agent of Malvern.  Consultant acknowledges that Consultant is being engaged as an independent contractor and not as an employee, partner or agent of Malvern, and that Malvern will assume no responsibility for withholding income tax, social security tax, or any other payments, or for providing insurance of any kind, including workers’ compensation insurance, all of which will be Consultant’s sole and exclusive responsibility.
b. Consultant will determine how to perform the Services, including determining whether and how to employ (at Consultant’s sole expense) the services of Consultant’s own employees, agents or subcontractors in providing the Services.  Malvern may not direct or control the performance of Services by Consultant or Consultant’s employees, agents or subcontractors.
ARTICLE VI
REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND UNDERTAKINGS
Section VI.1 Representations and Warranties of Consultant.  Consultant represents and warrants as follows:
a. No Conflicting Agreements.  Consultant is not a party to any contract or other arrangement of any nature which will materially interfere with Consultant’s full, due, complete and timely performance of this Agreement.
b. No Conflicting Action.  Consultant will not take any action that would cause the representations or warranties contained herein to be untrue in any material respect if any of such representations or warranties is made as of any date prior to Consultant’s complete performance of this Agreement.
c. Compliance with Laws; Insider Trading Restrictions.  Consultant has complied, and will comply with, all laws, rules, regulations and orders of any kind applicable to Consultant, including, without limitation, any laws, rules, regulations and orders that might be applicable to Consultant in connection with the provision of the Services hereunder, as well as  those of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and any requirements of any self-regulatory organizations.  Consultant acknowledges that Consultant may receive Confidential Information pertaining to Malvern and/or Malvern Bank which might constitute material, non-public information under applicable securities laws, and represents and warrants that Consultant and its Affiliates shall not use any such information for purposes of any transactions involving Malvern’s securities, including Malvern’s common stock, options to purchase common stock, or any other type of securities that Malvern may issue, including, but not limited to, bonds, preferred stock, convertible debentures and warrants, as well as derivative securities that are not issued by Malvern, such as exchange-traded put or call options or swaps relating to Malvern’s securities (collectively, “Malvern Securities”).  Consultant has ethical and legal obligations to maintain material, non-public information about Malvern and to not use such information for purposes of engaging in transactions in Malvern Securities or otherwise disclose such information to persons who might engage in transactions in Malvern Securities.
ARTICLE VII
GOVERNING LAW AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION
Section VII.1 Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial.  This Agreement shall be governed in all respects by the internal laws of the State of New Jersey, as such laws are applied to agreements entered into and to be performed entirely within the State of New Jersey between New Jersey residents.  AS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE PARTIES HERETO TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT, EACH PARTY HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.
ARTICLE VIII

a. the performance by Consultant of the Services under this Agreement; or
b. the breach of any provision, representation or warranty of this Agreement by Consultant, or the grossly negligent acts, errors or omissions or willful misconduct of Consultant, anyone directly or indirectly employed by Consultant or anyone for whose acts Consultant may be liable.
