Report of Independent Registered
Public Accounting Firm
 
To the Board of Trustees
Unity Bank Employees’ Savings and Profit Sharing Plan and Trust:
 
 
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the Unity Bank Employees’ Savings and Profit Sharing Plan and Trust (the Plan) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the auditing standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Unity Bank Employees’ Savings and Profit Sharing Plan and Trust as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
 
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets (held at end of year) as of December 31, 2010 is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements, but is supplementary information required by the United States Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.  The supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

UNITY BANK
Employees’ Savings and Profit Sharing Plan and Trust
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2010 and 2009

(1)           Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying financial statements of the Unity Bank Employees’ Savings and Profit Sharing Plan and Trust (the "Plan") for employees of Unity Bank (the "Bank") have been prepared on an accrual basis and present the net assets available for benefits and the changes in those net assets.  Investment contracts held by a defined-contribution plan are required to be reported at fair value. However, contract value is the relevant measurement attribute for that portion of the net assets available for benefits of a defined-contribution plan attributable to fully benefit-responsive investment contracts because contract value is the amount participants would receive if they were to initiate permitted transactions under the terms of the plan. The Statement of Net Assets Available for Benefits presents the fair value of the investment contracts as well as the adjustment of the fully benefit-responsive investment contracts from fair value to contract value. The Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits is prepared on a contract value basis.

   
Administrative Expenses
 
Administrative fees of the Plan include certain fees charged directly to individual participants, related directly to transactions or events associated with individual participant accounts.  Expenses of administering the Plan are paid directly by the Bank.
 
 
Investment Valuation and Income Recognition
 
Investments are reported at fair value.  Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. See Notes 6 and 7 for discussion of fair value measurements.
 
Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Net appreciation includes the Plan’s gains and losses on investments bought and sold as well as held during the year.
 

Guaranteed Investment Contracts
 
The Plan invests in investment contracts through a common collective trust.  The trust is credited with earnings on the underlying investments and charged for participant withdrawals and administrative expenses. The guaranteed investment contract issuers are contractually obligated to repay the principal and specified interest rates that are guaranteed to the trust.
 
Because the underlying guaranteed investment contracts are fully benefit-responsive, contract value is the relevant measurement attribute for that portion of the net assets available for benefits attributable to the guaranteed investment contract. The guaranteed investment contracts are presented on the face of the statement of net assets available for benefits at fair value with an adjustment to contract value in arriving at net assets available for benefits.  The Statement of Net Assets Available for Benefits presents the fair value of the investment in the common collective trust as well as the adjustment of the fully benefit-responsive investment in the common collective trust from fair value to contract value relating to the investment contracts.

Notes Receivable from Participants
 
Notes receivable from participants are measured at their unpaid principal balance plus any accrued but unpaid interest.  Delinquent participant loans are reclassified as distributions based upon the terms of the plan document. 
 
 
Payment of Benefits
 
Benefits are recorded when paid.
 
 
Risks and Uncertainties
 
The assets of the Plan are primarily financial instruments, which are monetary in nature. Accordingly, interest rates have a more significant impact on the Plan's performance than do the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates generally do not move in the same direction or with the same magnitude as prices of goods and services as measured by the consumer price index. Investments in funds are subject to risk conditions of the individual funds' objectives, stock market performance, interest rates, economic conditions, and world affairs.  Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect participants’ account balances and the amounts reported in the statement of net assets available for benefits.

 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires the plan administrator to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of additions and deductions during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
 
Related-Party Transactions
 
Certain Plan investments are managed by The Reliance Trust Company ("Reliance").  Reliance is the trustee as defined by the Plan and therefore, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions.
 
 
 
(2)           Description of Plan
 
The following description of the Plan provides only general information. Participants should refer to the plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions.
 
General
 
The Plan is a participant-directed, Federal income tax deferred defined contribution plan that was initiated in August of 2003 and is administered by the Bank. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA").
 
 
Page 4 of 11

 
 
Investment Options
 
The participant contributions and employer matching contributions may be allocated to various investment funds, and/or the Unity Bank Stock Fund at the discretion of the participant, provided that all directed allocations be in whole percentages.
 
 
Benefits and Contributions
 
Eligible participants, as defined, include employees of the Bank who have attained the age of 21, are not resident aliens or collectively bargained employees. Eligible participants can begin making contributions after three months of employment. Participants are eligible to receive employer matching and discretionary contributions when they have completed three months of service, as defined. Benefits are determined based on accumulated participants' and employer's contributions and related investment earnings or losses on those contributions. The participant can contribute up to 75% of base compensation, as defined, subject to legal limitations. The employer’s contributions are equal to 100% of the participants' contributions, up to 3% of eligible compensation and 50% of the participant’s contributions for the next 2% of eligible compensation, as defined.
 
Forfeitures
 
Any forfeited amounts reduce the employer's contributions to the Plan. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, forfeited non-vested accounts amounted to $632 and $1,858 respectively.   For the year ended December 31, 2010, there were $2,000 of forfeited non-vested account balances were used to reduce the employer’s contributions to the Plan.  There were no forfeited non-vested account balances utilized during 2009.  These forfeited balances were related to participants who enrolled in the Plan prior to January 1, 2006.
 
 
Vesting
 
All participants are fully vested in their voluntary contributions and related investment earnings or losses. Beginning on January 1, 2006, Unity Bank’s 401(k) plan became a “Safe Harbor Plan” which means employer matching contributions made from that date forward are automatically vested.  Employer matching contributions made prior to January 1, 2006 are 100% vested after completing six years of service.
 
 
Participant Accounts
 
Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s contribution and an allocation of (a) the Company’s contribution and (b) Plan earnings, and charged with an allocation of administrative expenses.  Allocations are based on participant earnings or account balances, as defined.  The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant’s vested account.
 
 
Funding
 
Employee contributions are funded through biweekly payroll deductions, and employer matching is funded each pay period.
 
 
Payment of Benefits
 
Upon normal retirement at age 65 or termination of employment, a participant may elect to receive a lump-sum amount equal to his or her vested account balance at termination date, various annuity options, or, by agreement with the plan administrator, a lump-sum payment at any date prior to the April 1 following the taxable year he or she attains, or would have attained, age 59-1/2. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit which can be provided from the participant's vested account balance.
 
 
(3)           Notes Receivable from Participants
 
Employees participating in the Plan are eligible to receive loans from the Plan. Loans that are granted to the participant are subject to the following conditions:
 
The minimum amount of any loan shall have a minimum term of 12 months. The maximum loan amount is determined under federal tax and pension laws. Borrowings are from the vested portion of accounts in any amount between $1,000 and $50,000, reduced by the highest outstanding loan balance within the prior 12 months.
 
The interest rates on loans are at reasonable rates of interest based on interest rates that institutions in the business of making loans would charge under similar circumstances.  The loans are secured by the balance in the participant’s account.  Loans are repaid (principal and interest) and added back to the participant account balances generally through regular after-tax payroll deductions.
 
 
(4)           Plan Termination
 
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the employer has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of plan termination, participants will fully vest and receive the value of their accounts as a lump-sum distribution.
 
 
(5)           Tax Status
 
The Plan adopted a volume submitter plan in August 2003, intended to meet the form requirements of Internal Revenue Code Section 401(a).  The employer has not applied for a determination letter.  Plan management believes that that the Plan is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.  Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been included in the Plan's financial statements.  The Plan was most recently amended in November 2010.
 
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require plan management to evaluate tax positions taken by the plan and recognize a tax liability (or asset) if the plan has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service.  The plan administrator has analyzed the tax positions taken by the plan and has concluded that as of December 31, 2010, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the financial statements.  The plan is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress.  The plan administrator believes it is no longer subject to income tax examinations for years prior to 2007.

Fair Value Measurement
 
 
The Plan follows FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures,” which requires additional disclosures about the Plan’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value.   Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.  In determining fair  value, the Plan uses various methods including market, income and cost approaches.  Based on these approaches, the Plan may  utilize certain assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and or the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique.  These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable inputs.  The asset or liability's fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.  The Plan utilizes techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.  Based on the observability of the inputs used in valuation techniques, the Plan is required to provide information according to the fair value hierarchy.  The fair value hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values.  Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed as follows:
 
    Level 1 Inputs:
 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
 
    Level 2 Inputs:
 
 Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets.
 
 Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets.
 
 Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for the term of the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates, yield curves, credit risks, prepayment speeds or volatilities) or "market corroborated inputs."
 
    Level 3 Inputs:
 
 Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable (i.e. supported by little or no market activity) and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
 
The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value:
 
Short-term money market instruments: 
Short-term money market instruments are stated at amortized cost, which approximates fair value.
 
Unity Bancorp, Inc. stock fund:  
This is comprised of Unity Bancorp, Inc. common stock which is traded on NASDAQ and valued at its quoted market price at the daily close
 
Common collective trusts
Common collective trusts are valued at the net asset value ("NAV") of shares held by the plan at year-end.  The NAV is derived from each Fund's audited financial statements and not published prices.  With respect to the underlying collective investment funds, equity investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last reported sale price on their principal exchange on valuation date, or official close price for certain markets. If no sales are reported for that day, investments are valued at the more recent of the last published sale price or the mean between the last reported bid and ask prices, or at fair value as determined in good faith by the Trustee. In addition, the underlying collective investment funds invest in fixed income investments which are valued on the basis of valuations furnished by a Trustee-approved independent pricing service, which determines valuations for normal institutional-size trading units of such securities using methods based on market transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities which are generally recognized by institutional traders, or at fair value as determined in good faith by the Trustee. This category is further broken down into the following types of funds:
 
Asset allocation funds: These funds offer broad diversification and a disciplined rebalancing process by keeping the mix of U.S. stocks, international stocks and U.S bonds at a set percentage, depending on the plan participant's investment strategy (i.e. conservative, moderate, or aggressive).
Bond funds: These funds offer broad, low cost exposure to the U.S. bond market. 
Stock funds: These funds offer broad, low cost exposure to stocks.  The stocks vary depending on the particular fund (i.e. S&P 500 offers stocks of large U.S. companies, S&P Mid Cap offers stocks of medium U.S. companies, Russell Small Cap offers stocks of small U.S. companies).
Target retirement funds: These funds offer complete asset allocations which become more conservative closer to retirement.  Plan participants select the fund with a date closest to their expected retirement date and invest accordingly.
 
Guaranteed investment contracts ("GICs")
The fair value of the common collective trust fund is estimated using net asset value per share (or its equivalent).  The common collective trust invests in a variety of investment contracts such as guaranteed investment contracts (“GICs”) issued by insurance companies and other investment products (“synthetic GICs”) with similar characteristics, in addition to smaller investments in short-term investments and U.S. Treasury notes.  Shares in the common collective trust may be redeemed daily with no redemption waiting period.  There were no unfunded commitments as of December 31, 2010.  The crediting interest rates are based formulas agreed upon with the issuers, but they may not be less than zero percent.  Such interest rates are reviewed on a quarterly basis for resetting.  As of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the weighted average crediting interest rates were 3.26% and 2.70%, respectively.
 
Certain events limit the ability of the common collective trust to transact at contract value with the participants.  Such events include the following: (1) amendments to the plan documents (including complete or partial plan termination or merger with another plan), (2) changes to the plan’s prohibition on competing investment options or deletion of equity wash provisions, (3) bankruptcy of the plan sponsor or other plan sponsor events (for example, divestitures or spin-offs of a subsidiary) that cause a significant withdrawal from the plan, or (4) the failure of the trust to qualify for exemption from federal income taxes or any required prohibited transaction exemption under ERISA. The plan administrator does not believe that any events which would limit the plan’s ability to transact at contract value with participants are probable of occurring.

The methods described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values.  Furthermore, while the Plan believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial  instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.  There were no changes in the inputs or methodologies used to determine fair value during the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to December 31, 2009.
 
The following tables present, by level within the fair value hierarchy, the Plan's assets at fair value as of December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

New Accounting Pronouncements
 
    FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”
 
In January 2010, the FASB issued an amendment to Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, Topic 820, Improving Disclosures About Fair Value Measurements. This amendment requires new disclosures regarding significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and 2 fair value measurements and the reasons for the transfers. This amendment also requires that a reporting entity present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements, on a gross basis rather than a net basis for activity in Level 3 fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs. This amendment also clarifies existing disclosures on the level of disaggregation, in that the reporting entity needs to use judgment in determining the appropriate classes of assets and liabilities, and that a reporting entity should provide disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements for Level 2 and 3. The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosures for ASC 820 are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of these amendments did not have a material effect on the Plan’s financial statements.
 
In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS, (“ASU 2011-04”). ASU 2011-04 amended ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, to converge the fair value measurement guidance in US generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Some of the amendments clarify the application of existing fair value measurement requirements, while other amendments change a particular principle in ASC 820. In addition, ASU 2011-04 requires additional fair value disclosures, although certain of these new disclosures will not be required for nonpublic entities. The amendments are to be applied prospectively and are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption prohibited. Plan management is currently evaluating the effect that the provisions of ASU 2011-04 will have on the Plan’s financial statements.
 
FASB ASC Topic 855, “Subsequent Events
 
In February 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-9 Subsequent Events (Topic 855) Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements (“ASU 2010-9”). ASU 2010-9 amends disclosure requirements within Subtopic 855-10. This change alleviates potential conflicts between Subtopic 855-10 and the Securities and Exchange Commission’s requirements. ASU 2010-9 is effective for periods ending after June 15, 2010 and was adopted by the Plan.
 
FASB ASC Topic 962, “Plan Accounting-Defined Contribution Pension Plans
 
In September 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-25, Plan Accounting-Defined Contribution Pension Plans: Reporting Loans to Participants by Defined Contribution Pension Plans, (“ASU No. 2010-25”) which amended ASC Topic 962, Plan Accounting — Defined Contribution Pension Plans, adding new disclosure requirements for participant loans. ASU No. 2010-25 requires that participant loans be classified as notes receivable from participants, which are segregated from plan investments and measured at their unpaid principal balance plus any accrued but unpaid interest. ASU No. 2010-25 is effective for periods ending after December 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted.
 
The Plan has reclassified participant loans of $126,897 and $79,425 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, from investments to notes receivable from participants.  Prior year amounts have been revised to reflect the retrospective application of adopting this new amendment.
