Corporate Governance

General

The Company periodically reviews its corporate governance policies and procedures to ensure that the Company meets the highest standards of ethical conduct, reports results with accuracy and transparency, and maintains full compliance with the laws, rules and regulations that govern the Company’s operations. As part of this periodic corporate governance review, the Board of Directors reviews and adopts what it believes to be best corporate governance policies and practices for the Company.

Code of Ethics and Business Conduct

We have adopted a Code of Ethics and Business Conduct that is designed to promote the highest standards of ethical conduct by our directors, executive officers, and employees. The Code of Ethics and Business Conduct requires that our directors, executive officers, and employees avoid conflicts of interest, comply with all laws and other legal requirements, conduct business in an honest and ethical manner, and otherwise act with integrity and in our best interest. Under the terms of the Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, directors, executive officers, and employees are required to report any conduct that they believe in good faith to be an actual or apparent violation of the Code of Ethics and Business Conduct. A copy of the Code of Ethics and Business Conduct can be found in the “TSB—Investor

Relations—Corporate Governance” section of our Web site, www.territorialsavings.net. Amendments to and waivers from our Code of Ethics and Business Conduct will be disclosed in the “TSB—Investor Relations—Corporate Governance” section of our Web site.

As a mechanism to encourage compliance with the Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, we have established procedures to receive, retain, and treat complaints regarding accounting, internal accounting controls, and auditing matters. These procedures ensure that individuals may submit concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters in a confidential and anonymous manner. The Code of Ethics and Business Conduct also prohibits us from retaliating against any director, executive officer, or employee who reports actual or apparent violations of the Code of Ethics and Business Conduct.

Meetings of the Board of Directors

The Company conducts business through meetings of its Board of Directors and through activities of its committees. During 2015, the Board of Directors held 12 meetings (not including committee meetings), and our independent directors met five times in executive session without management present. No director attended fewer than 75% of the total meetings of the Board of Directors and the committees on which such director served (held during the period for which the director has served as a director or committee member, as appropriate).

Committees of the Board of Directors

The following table identifies our Audit, Compensation, and Nominating and Corporate Governance committees and their members. All members of each committee are independent in accordance with the listing standards of the NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. Each of these committees operates under a written charter that is available in the “TSB—Investor Relations—Corporate Governance” section of the Company’s Web site, www.territorialsavings.net.

4

Audit Committee.    Pursuant to Territorial Bancorp Inc.’s Audit Committee Charter, the Audit Committee assists the Board of Directors in its oversight of the Company’s accounting and reporting practices, the quality and integrity of the Company’s financial reports and the Company’s compliance with applicable laws and regulations. The Audit Committee is also responsible for engaging the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and monitoring its conduct and independence. In addition to meeting the independence requirements of the NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc., each member of the Audit Committee meets the audit committee independence requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Board of Directors has designated Howard Y. Ikeda as an audit committee financial expert under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The report of the Audit Committee required by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission is included in this proxy statement. See “Audit Committee Report.”

Compensation Committee.    Pursuant to Territorial Bancorp Inc.’s Compensation Committee Charter, the Compensation Committee approves the compensation objectives for the Company and Territorial Savings Bank and establishes the compensation for the Chief Executive Officer and other executives. Our Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer, Allan Kitagawa, provides recommendations to the Compensation Committee on matters of compensation philosophy, plan design, and the general guidelines for employee compensation. However, Mr. Kitagawa does not vote on and is not present for any discussion of his own compensation. These recommendations are then considered by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee reviews all compensation components for the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and other highly compensated executive officers’ compensation including base salary, annual incentive, long-term incentives, and perquisites. In addition to reviewing competitive market values, the committee also examines the total compensation mix, pay-for-performance relationship, and how all elements, in the aggregate, comprise the executive’s total compensation package. Decisions by the Compensation Committee with respect to the compensation of executive officers are approved by the full Board of Directors. See “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” for more information regarding the role of the Compensation Committee in determining and/or recommending the amount or form of executive compensation. The report of the Compensation Committee required by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission is included in this proxy statement. See “Compensation Committee Report.”

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.    Pursuant to Territorial Bancorp Inc.’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee charter, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee assists the Board of Directors in identifying qualified individuals to serve as Board members, in determining the composition of the Board of Directors and its committees, in monitoring a process to assess Board effectiveness, and in developing and implementing the Company’s corporate governance guidelines. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also considers and recommends the nominees for director to stand for election at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders. The procedures of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee required to be disclosed by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission are included in this proxy statement. See “Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Procedures.”

Attendance at the Annual Meeting

The Board of Directors encourages each director to attend annual meetings of stockholders. All of our directors attended the 2015 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Board Leadership Structure

The Board of Directors currently combines the position of Chairman of the Board with the position of Chief Executive Officer, coupled with a lead independent director to strengthen the Company’s governance structure. The Board of Directors believes this provides an efficient and effective leadership model for the Company. Combining the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer positions fosters clear accountability, effective decision-making, alignment on corporate strategy, and a clear and direct channel of communication from senior management to the full Board of Directors. To further strengthen the leadership of the Board of Directors, the Board selects a lead independent director on an annual basis, currently Director Richard Murakami. The responsibilities of the lead independent director include leading all Board meetings of “nonmanagement” directors. The Board of Directors believes its administration of its risk oversight function is not adversely affected by the Board of Directors’ leadership structure. To assure effective independent oversight, the Board has adopted a number of governance practices, including holding executive sessions of the independent directors at least twice a year or more often as needed. In addition, the Compensation Committee, which consists only of independent directors, evaluates the performance of our Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer and presents its findings to our independent directors.

Risk Oversight

The Board of Directors has an active role, as a whole and also at the committee level, in overseeing management of the Company’s risks. The Board of Directors satisfies this responsibility through the review of minutes from each committee regarding such committee’s considerations and actions, through frequent attendance as nonvoting guests at committee meetings and through regular reports directly from officers responsible for oversight of particular risks within our organization. The Board of Directors regularly reviews information regarding the Company’s credit, liquidity, and operations, as well as the risks associated with such areas. The Company’s Compensation Committee is responsible for overseeing the management of risks relating to the Company’s executive compensation plans and arrangements. The Audit Committee oversees management of financial risks. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee manages risks associated with the Company’s corporate governance, including the independence of the Board of Directors and potential conflicts of interest. While each committee is responsible for evaluating certain risks and overseeing the management of such risks, the entire Board of Directors is regularly informed about such risks. The Board of Directors annually reviews our conflicts of interest policy to ensure all directors are in compliance with the policy.

Risks relating to the direct operations of Territorial Savings Bank are further overseen by its Board of Directors, who are the same individuals who serve on the Board of Directors of Territorial Bancorp Inc. The Board of Directors of Territorial Savings Bank also has additional committees that conduct additional risk oversight. Further, the Board of Directors oversees risks through the establishment of policies and procedures that are designed to guide daily operations in a manner consistent with applicable laws, regulations, and risks acceptable to the organization, such as the requirement that all

6

loan relationships in excess of $5.0 million must be submitted to the Board of Directors Loan Committee for approval, subject to ratification by the full Board of Directors, or to the full Board of Directors for approval.

Stock Ownership

The following table provides information as of March 31, 2016, with respect to persons known by the Company to be the beneficial owners of more than 5% of the Company’s outstanding common stock. A person may be considered to own any shares of common stock over which he or she has, directly or indirectly, sole or shared voting or investing power. Percentages are based on 9,790,497 shares of Company common stock issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2016.

Proposal 1 — Election of Directors

The Board of Directors of Territorial Bancorp Inc. is presently composed of six members. The Board is divided into three classes, each with three-year staggered terms, with approximately one-third of the directors elected each year. The nominees for election this year are Kirk W. Caldwell and Francis E. Tanaka, both of whom are current directors of the Company and the Bank.

The Board of Directors has determined that each of our directors, with the exception of Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer Allan S. Kitagawa, is “independent” as defined in the listing standards of the NASDAQ Stock Market. Mr. Kitagawa is not independent because he is one of our executive officers.

In determining the independence of the directors listed above, the Board of Directors reviewed the following transactions, none of which is required to be reported under “Transactions with Certain Related Persons” below. Director Kirk W. Caldwell has a mortgage loan and overdraft protection with Territorial Savings Bank. Director David S. Murakami has a mortgage loan, a home equity line of credit and overdraft protection with Territorial Savings Bank. Director Richard I. Murakami has a mortgage loan and overdraft protection with Territorial Savings Bank. Director Francis E. Tanaka has a mortgage loan with Territorial Savings Bank.

It is intended that the proxies solicited by the Board of Directors will be voted for the election of the nominees named below. If any nominee is unable to serve, and you have returned a validly executed proxy card, the persons named in the proxy card will vote your shares to approve the election of any substitute proposed by the Board of Directors. Alternatively, the Board of Directors may adopt a resolution to reduce the size of the Board. At this time, the Board of Directors knows of no reason why any nominee might be unable to serve.

The Board of Directors Recommends a

Vote “FOR” the Election of All Nominees

The business experience for at least the past five years of each of our directors and nominees proposed by the Board of Directors is set forth below. The biographies of each of the nominees and continuing board members below contain information regarding the person’s business experience and the experiences, qualifications, attributes, or skills that caused the Nominating Committee and the Board of Directors to determine that the person should serve as a director. Each director is also a director of Territorial Savings Bank. Unless otherwise indicated, directors and executive officers have held their positions for the past five years.

		9

All of the nominees and directors continuing in office are long-time residents of the communities served by Territorial Bancorp Inc. and its subsidiaries and many of such individuals have operated, or currently operate, businesses located in such communities. As a result, each nominee and director continuing in office has significant knowledge of the businesses that operate in Territorial Bancorp Inc.’s market area, an understanding of the general real estate market, values and trends in such communities, and an understanding of the overall demographics of such communities. Additionally, as residents of such communities, each nominee and continuing director has direct knowledge of the trends and developments occurring in such communities. As the holding company for a community banking institution, Territorial Bancorp Inc. believes that the local knowledge and experience of its directors assists Territorial Bancorp Inc. in assessing the credit and banking needs of its customers, developing products and services to better serve its customers, and assessing the risks inherent in its lending operations, and provides Territorial Bancorp Inc. with greater business development opportunities. As local residents, our nominees and directors are also exposed to the advertising, product offerings, and community development efforts of competing institutions which, in turn, assists Territorial Bancorp Inc. in structuring its marketing efforts and community outreach programs.

Proposal 2 — Ratification of Independent

Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has appointed Moss Adams LLP to be the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2016, subject to ratification by stockholders. A representative of Moss Adams LLP is expected to be present at the annual meeting to respond to appropriate questions from stockholders and will have the opportunity to make a statement should he or she desire to do so.

If the ratification of the appointment of Moss Adams LLP is not approved by a majority of the votes cast by stockholders at the annual meeting, other independent registered public accounting firms may be considered by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.

Even if the selection of Moss Adams LLP is ratified, the Audit Committee, in its discretion, may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such change is in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders.

The Board of Directors recommends that stockholders vote “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of Moss Adams LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.

KPMG LLP was previously the independent registered public accounting firm for the Company. On April 9, 2015, the firm was dismissed as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The decision to dismiss KPMG LLP was approved by the Audit Committee of the Company.

During the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 and the subsequent interim period through April 9, 2015, there were no: (1) disagreements with KPMG LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to their satisfaction, would have caused them to make reference in connection with their opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement, or (2) reportable events under Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K except that KPMG LLP advised the Company of the following material weaknesses noted below.

The audit reports of KPMG LLP on the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. The audit reports of KPMG LLP on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles, except that KPMG LLP’s report indicates that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013 because of the effect of material weaknesses on the achievement of the objectives of the control criteria and contains an explanatory paragraph that states material weaknesses related to the Company’s (1) risk assessment processes for effective identification of financial reporting risks and controls, (2) investment securities policies and processes, and (3) income tax policies and procedures.

		13

Audit Fees

The following table sets forth the fees to Moss Adams LLP for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014.

(1)  Tax fees consist of tax return preparation and other tax matters.

(2)  All other fees relate to an internal audit of information technology and assistance with an internal controls risk assessment.

The following table sets forth the fees to KPMG LLP for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014.

(1)  Audit fees relate to the audit of Territorial Bancorp Inc.’s consolidated financial statements, the audits of internal controls over financial reporting, reviews of financial statements included in the Company’s quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and regulatory and statutory engagements related to the aforementioned statements, and to Securities and Exchange Commission registration statements.

(2)  Audit-related fees pertain to the audit of the financial statements of certain employee benefit plans.

(3)  Tax fees consist of tax return preparation and other tax matters.

Pre-Approval of Services by the Independent

Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Audit Committee is responsible for appointing, setting compensation and overseeing the work of the independent registered public accounting firm. In accordance with its charter and written policy, the Audit Committee approves, in advance, all audit and permissible non-audit services to be performed by the independent registered public accounting firm, or such services can be performed in accordance with the Audit Committee’s written pre-approval policy. Such approval process ensures that the external auditor does not provide any non-audit services to us that are prohibited by law or regulation.

During each of the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, 100% of the fees paid to Moss Adams LLP were either approved, in advance, by the Audit Committee, or pre-approved under the Audit Committee’s written pre-approval policy, and during the year ended December 31, 2014, 100% of the audit-related fees and tax fees paid to KPMG LLP were approved, in advance, by the Audit Committee.

Proposal 3 — Advisory (Nonbinding)

Vote on Executive Compensation

Based upon a board determination that considered the advice of stockholders at our 2011 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, stockholders are annually being given the opportunity to vote on an advisory (nonbinding) resolution to approve the compensation of our “Named Executive Officers,” as described in this proxy statement under “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” and the compensation tables and narrative disclosure. This proposal, commonly known as a “say-on-pay” proposal, gives stockholders the opportunity to endorse or not endorse the Company’s executive pay program.

The purpose of our compensation policies and procedures is to attract and retain experienced, highly qualified executives critical to the Company’s long-term success and enhancement of stockholder value. The Board of Directors believes the Company’s compensation policies and procedures achieve this objective, and therefore recommend stockholders vote “FOR” the proposal. Specifically, stockholders are being asked to approve the following resolution:

“RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Company’s Named Executive Officers, as disclosed in this proxy statement pursuant to Item 402 of Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-K, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables and narrative discussion is hereby APPROVED.”

Although nonbinding, the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee value constructive dialogue on executive compensation and other important governance topics with our stockholders and encourage all stockholders to vote their shares on this matter. The Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee will review the voting results and take them into consideration when making future decisions regarding our executive compensation programs.

Unless otherwise instructed, validly executed proxies will be voted “FOR” this resolution.

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” the resolution set forth in Proposal 3.

		15

Proposal 4 — Approval of the Amendment to the

Territorial Bancorp Inc. 2010 Equity Incentive Plan

On March 29, 2016, our Board of Directors approved the amendment of the Territorial Bancorp Inc. 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2010 Plan”), subject to the approval of our stockholders. We are asking our stockholders to approve the amendment of the 2010 Plan as approved by our Board of Directors. The primary purpose of amending the 2010 Plan is to provide stock to substitute for some or all of the long-term incentive awards that are currently paid in cash. The amendment is projected to provide enough stock for the remainder of the duration of the 2010 Plan, which ends in 2020. The form of Amendment to the 2010 Plan is attached as Appendix A to this proxy statement.

If approved by our stockholders, the proposed amendment of the 2010 Plan will, as described below, increase the overall number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2010 Plan by 150,000 and increase the overall number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance with respect to restricted stock grants by 250,000. The increase in shares available for restricted stock grants comes from two sources: (i) the increase in overall shares available under the 2010 Plan by 150,000 and (ii) reducing the number of shares available for stock option grants and instead allowing those shares to be used for restricted stock grants. In addition, the amendment provides certain changes to the 2010 Plan that we believe reflect good corporate governance practices.

We believe that increasing the number of shares available for the grant of restricted stock under the 2010 Plan will allow us to continue using equity grants as an important component of our overall compensation package for the next few years in lieu of certain cash payments. Given the number of existing stock options that have been granted but not yet exercised by our employees and directors, we believe the best approach to ensure we have enough shares available for the grant of restricted stock under the 2010 Plan is to reduce the number of shares available for stock options that have not been granted and increase the overall number of shares under the 2010 Plan by a modest amount rather than seek stockholder approval of a new equity incentive plan with a larger number of available shares. The 150,000 overall share increase under the 2010 Plan represents 1.5% of our outstanding shares. The 250,000 overall share increase under the 2010 Plan for grants of restricted stock represents 2.6% of our outstanding shares.

If the proposal is not approved by our stockholders, the 2010 Plan will continue in effect under the current share limits and without regard to the other proposed amendments to the 2010 Plan.

Description of Amendments

The proposed amendments to the 2010 Plan will increase the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2010 Plan by 150,000. In addition, the amendments will reduce the number of shares available under the 2010 Plan for the grant of stock options by 100,000 and increase the number of shares available under the 2010 Plan for the grant of restricted stock by 250,000. As of March 29, 2016, the date of the Board of Directors’ approval of the proposed amendment of the 2010 Plan, 18,958 shares remained available for the grant of restricted stock awards under the 2010 Plan and 101,628 remained available for the grant of stock options. The Board of Directors believes that this remaining balance does not give us sufficient authority and flexibility to adequately provide for future equity incentives in lieu of certain cash payments. The Board of Directors believes that the proposed

16

share increase will better allow us to maintain compensation packages that align our employees’, executive officers’, and directors’ interests to those of our stockholders and remain competitive to attract and retain individuals who can contribute to our success.

The other amendments to the 2010 Plan, which by themselves would not require approval of our stockholders, include the following:

Awards to be Granted

At the present time, no specific determination has been made as to the grant or allocation of awards under the amended 2010 Plan.

Federal Income Tax Considerations

The following is a summary of the federal income tax consequences that may arise in conjunction with participation in the amended 2010 Plan.

Non-Qualified Stock Options. The grant of a non-qualified option will not result in taxable income to the participant. Except as described below, the participant will realize ordinary income at the time of exercise in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares acquired over the exercise price for those shares, and the Company will be entitled to a corresponding deduction for tax purposes. Gains or losses realized by the participant upon disposition of such shares will be treated as capital gains and losses, with the basis in such shares equal to the fair market value of the shares at the time of exercise.

Incentive Stock Options. The grant of an incentive stock option will not result in taxable income to the participant. The exercise of an incentive stock option will not result in taxable income to the participant provided the participant was, without a break in service, an employee of the Company or a subsidiary during the period beginning on the date of the grant of the option and ending on the date three months prior to the date of exercise (one year prior to the date of exercise if the participant is disabled, as that term is defined in the Internal Revenue Code).

		17

The excess of the fair market value of the shares at the time of the exercise of an incentive stock option over the exercise price is an adjustment that is included in the calculation of the participant’s alternative minimum taxable income for the tax year in which the incentive stock option is exercised. For purposes of determining the participant’s alternative minimum tax liability for the year of disposition of the shares acquired pursuant to the incentive stock option exercise, the participant will have a basis in those shares equal to the fair market value of the shares at the time of exercise.

If the participant does not sell or otherwise dispose of the shares within two years from the date of the grant of the incentive stock option or within one year after the exercise of such stock option, then, upon disposition of such shares, any amount realized in excess of the exercise price will be taxed as a capital gain. A capital loss will be recognized to the extent that the amount realized is less than the exercise price.

If the foregoing holding period requirements are not met, the participant will generally realize ordinary income at the time of the disposition of the shares, in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the excess of the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise over the exercise price, or (ii) the excess, if any, of the amount realized upon disposition of the shares over the exercise price, and the Company will be entitled to a corresponding deduction. If the amount realized exceeds the value of the shares on the date of exercise, any additional amount will be a capital gain. If the amount realized is less than the exercise price, the participant will recognize no income, and a capital loss will be recognized equal to the excess of the exercise price over the amount realized upon the disposition of the shares.

Restricted Stock. A participant who has been granted a restricted stock award will not realize taxable income at the time of grant, provided that that the stock subject to the award is not delivered at the time of grant, or if the stock is delivered, it is subject to restrictions that constitute a “substantial risk of forfeiture” for federal income tax purposes. Upon the later of delivery or vesting of shares subject to an award, the holder will realize ordinary income in an amount equal to the then fair market value of those shares and the Company will be entitled to a corresponding deduction for tax purposes. Gains or losses realized by the participant upon disposition of such shares will be treated as capital gains and losses, with the basis in such shares equal to the fair market value of the shares at the time of delivery or vesting. Dividends paid to the holder during the restriction period, if so provided, will also be compensation income to the participant and the Company will be entitled to a corresponding deduction for tax purposes. A participant who makes an election under Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code will include the full fair market value of the restricted stock award in taxable income in the year of grant at the grant date fair market value.

Withholding of Taxes. The Company may withhold amounts from participants to satisfy withholding tax requirements. Except as otherwise provided by the committee who administers the amended 2010 Plan, participants may have shares withheld from awards or may tender previously owned shares to the Company to satisfy the minimum tax withholding requirements.

Change in Control. In the event of a change in control, outstanding unvested awards under the Equity Incentive Plan may be considered parachute payments that would cause an “excess parachute payment” under the Internal Revenue Code. An excess parachute payment may subject the participant to a 20% excise tax and preclude deduction by the Company.

18

Deduction Limits. Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code generally limits the Company’s ability to deduct for tax purposes compensation in excess of $1.0 million per year for its chief executive officer and the three other most highly compensated executives (excluding the chief financial officer) named in the summary compensation table (“covered employees”). Restricted stock awards, other than performance-based restricted stock awards, and other awards that are not subject to performance goals may be subject to this deduction limit if income recognized on the awards plus other compensation of the executive that is subject to the limit exceeds $1.0 million. “Qualified performance-based compensation” is not subject to this limit and is fully deductible by the Company. “Qualified performance-based compensation” is compensation that is subject to a number of requirements such as stockholder approval of possible performance goals, and objective quantification of those goals in advance. Stock options available for award under the Equity Incentive Plan will be considered “qualified performance-based compensation” even if such awards vest solely due to the passage of time during the performance of services. Accordingly, if an award is not exempt from Section 162(m), income recognized on such award by a covered employee will be subject to the $1.0 million deduction limit on compensation.

In the case of performance-based awards granted to a covered employee that are not distributed until after the covered employee’s retirement or other termination of employment, the $1.0 million deduction limit will not apply and the award will be fully deductible. Performance awards may provide for accelerated vesting upon death, disability, or a change in control and still be considered exempt from the $1.0 million deduction limit. The amended 2010 Plan is designed so that stock options and performance-based restricted stock awards that are subject to performance goals may qualify as qualified performance-based compensation that is not subject to the $1.0 million deduction limit.

Tax Advice. The preceding discussion is based on federal tax laws and regulations presently in effect, which are subject to change, and the discussion does not purport to be a complete description of the federal income tax aspects of the amended 2010 Plan. A participant may also be subject to state and local taxes in connection with the grant of awards under the amended 2010 Plan. The Company suggests that participants consult with their individual tax advisors to determine the applicability of the tax rules to the awards granted to them in their personal circumstances.

Unless otherwise instructed, validly executed proxies will be voted “FOR” this proposal.

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” the Amendment to the 2010 Plan.

Audit Committee Report

The Company’s management is responsible for the Company’s internal controls and financial reporting process. The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for performing an independent audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statements, issuing an opinion on the conformity of those financial statements with generally accepted accounting principles, and issuing a report on internal control over financial reporting. The Audit Committee oversees the Company’s internal controls and financial reporting process on behalf of the Board of Directors.

		19

In this context, the Audit Committee has met and held discussions with management and the independent registered public accounting firm. Management represented to the Audit Committee that the Company’s consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the consolidated financial statements with management and the independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the matters related to the results of the audit in accordance with PCAOB Standard No. 16, Communications with Audit Committees; Related Amendments to PCAOB Standards and Transitional Amendments to PCAOB AU 380.

In addition, the Audit Committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered public accounting firm required by the Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Discussions with Audit Committees) and has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the firm’s independence from the Company and its management. In concluding that the registered public accounting firm is independent, the Audit Committee considered, among other factors, whether the non-audit services provided by the firm were compatible with its independence.

The Audit Committee discussed with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm the overall scope and plans for their audit. The Audit Committee meets with the independent registered public accounting firm, with and without management present, to discuss the results of their audit, their evaluation of the Company’s internal controls, and the overall quality of the Company’s financial reporting.

In performing all of these functions, the Audit Committee acts only in an oversight capacity. In its oversight role, the Audit Committee relies on the work and assurances of the Company’s management, which has the primary responsibility for financial statements and reports, and of the independent registered public accounting firm who, in their report, express an opinion on the conformity of the Company’s financial statements to generally accepted accounting principles. The Audit Committee’s oversight does not provide it with an independent basis to determine that management has maintained appropriate accounting and financial reporting principles or policies, or appropriate internal controls and procedures designed to assure compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and regulations. Furthermore, the Audit Committee’s considerations and discussions with management and the independent registered public accounting firm do not assure that the Company’s financial statements are presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, that the audit of the Company’s financial statements has been carried out in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, or that the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is in fact “independent.”

In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors, and the Board has approved, that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Audit Committee also has approved, subject to stockholder ratification, the selection of Moss Adams LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2016.

Executive Compensation

Director Fees

Each of Territorial Savings Bank’s outside directors receives an annual retainer for board meetings of $32,650 per year and an annual retainer for committee meetings of $2,450 per year. Each of Territorial Bancorp Inc.’s outside directors receives an annual retainer for board meetings of $5,100 per year and an annual retainer for committee meetings of $615 per year. The retainer fees are increased to the following amounts for the following committees: the Chairman of Territorial Savings Bank’s Audit Committee receives a committee retainer of $2,650 and the Chairman of Territorial Bancorp Inc.’s Audit Committee receives a committee retainer of $8,570; the Chairman of Territorial Savings Bank’s Compensation Committee receives a committee retainer of $4,900; and the Chairman of Territorial Bancorp Inc.’s Compensation Committee receives a committee retainer of $1,225. Receipt of full retainer payments is based upon a director attending at least 75% of board or committee meetings, as applicable, with reductions for the failure to attend such number of board or committee meetings.

The following table sets forth for the year ended December 31, 2015, certain information as to the total remuneration we paid to our directors. Mr. Kitagawa does not receive separate fees for service as a director.

At December 31, 2015, Directors David Murakami, Richard Murakami, Ikeda, and Caldwell each had 6,141 shares of unvested restricted stock, and Director Tanaka had 547 shares of unvested restricted stock. In addition, at December 31, 2015, Directors David Murakami, Richard Murakami, Ikeda, and Caldwell each had 34,395 vested stock options and 6,880 unvested stock options. Director Tanaka had 2,468 vested stock options and 617 unvested stock options.

On August 19, 2010, Directors David Murakami, Richard Murakami, Ikeda and Caldwell were each granted 36,821 shares of restricted stock and 41,275 stock options with an exercise price of $17.36 per option. Shares of restricted stock and options vest at a rate of one-sixth per year beginning August 19, 2011.

On August 19, 2012, Director Tanaka was granted 2,735 shares of restricted stock and 3,085 stock options with an exercise price of $23.62 per option. Shares of restricted stock and options vest at a rate of one-fifth per year beginning August 19, 2012.

22

The Company has no stock ownership guidelines for directors. However, for previous grants under our 2010 Equity incentive Plan each director must retain 50% of each restricted stock or stock option award (net of taxes) until their service on the Board ends. We have not determined whether we will maintain the stock retention requirement for future grants made under the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

The following Compensation Discussion and Analysis, or CD&A, describes our 2015 executive compensation program, as well as certain aspects of the 2016 program. Our compensation program and practices are designed to reward our executives based on our performance against our short-term goals as well as in a manner intended to enhance the long-term value of the Company and reduce excess risk. In particular, the following pages explain the process, objectives, and structure of the executive compensation decisions undertaken by our Compensation Committee and our Board of Directors for 2015 and 2016. This CD&A is intended to be read in conjunction with the tables included elsewhere in this proxy statement, which provide detailed historical compensation information for our “named executive officers,” described below.

For 2015, our named executive officers are:

I. Executive Summary

Management Say on Pay Results

As required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, we held an advisory vote on the approval of the compensation of our named executive officers (the “Say-on-Pay” vote) at our 2015 annual stockholders meeting. The results were that 88% of the stockholders who voted on our Say on Pay proposal voted in favor of it. We were pleased with the results of the Say-on-Pay vote at our 2015 annual stockholders meeting, and we believe that our stockholders are very supportive of the steps we began taking in 2014 to better tie our executive compensation program to our performance. In 2015, we also continued our ongoing institutional stockholder outreach, to our 19 largest stockholders. At that time, this group represented 35% of our outstanding shares of common stock. The results of the discussions were shared with the entire Board.

What We Did

How Are We Doing This

The graphic below illustrates how awards were earned and delivered to participants in 2015 and how the changes approved in 2014 are being implemented. The cash-based Annual Incentive Plan (AIP) constitutes 45% of the variable opportunity. The Long-term Incentive Plan (LTIP) constitutes 55% of the annual opportunity. The AIP and LTIP award values are determined based on corporate performance. The AIP payment is conditioned on positive net income for the Company. All financial metrics in both the AIP and LTIP are compared to peer performance. Target performance for the AIP is set at the 75th percentile of peer performance. Threshold and maximum performance are set at the 35th and 85th percentile, respectively. The total shareholder return (TSR) metric in the LTIP is also compared to peer performance, with target performance set at the 50th percentile of peer performance. Threshold and maximum performance is set at the 25th and 75th percentile, respectively. By 2017, awards under both LTIP components will be determined based on metrics that are different from the AIP components.

24

Corporate Governance Related to Executive Compensation

The Board has adopted the following corporate governance measures related to compensation for Named Executive Officers:

1.   Clawback for performance-based compensation (both short-term and long-term).

2.   Stock ownership guidelines (three times (3x) base salary for our Chief Executive Officer and two times (2x) base salary for all other Named Executive Officers).

3.   No single-trigger payment provisions in any new employment or change in control agreements (for both cash and equity payments).

4.   No excise tax gross-up provisions in any new employment or change in control agreements.

In addition, for all executive officers and directors:

¡  For previous grants under our 2010 Equity incentive Plan, we established a stock retention requirement of 50% of granted restricted stock, net of stock sold for taxes, until separation from the Company. We have not determined whether we will maintain the stock retention requirement for future grants made under the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan.

In addition for all insiders:

¡  No re-pricing of stock options.

¡  No pledging of stock.

		25

What were the 2015 key performance highlights?

In 2015, we used ROAA as our primary performance measure. We consider ROAA to be the most common measurement of profitability for banks and thrifts. The chart below compares the changes in ROAA to the changes in total shareholder return as reported by SNL Financial.

Stockholder Highlights

We started 2015 with two quarterly dividends of $0.16 per share. In July 2015, we increased the dividend to $0.17 per share and paid this for two quarters. In January 2016, the dividend was increased again to $0.18 per share. This dividend has steadily increased from our first dividend of $0.05 per share in February 2010, which was approximately six months after we went public in July 2009.

We also declared a special dividend of $0.10 per share in December 2015, the fourth year in a row we were able to do so. Combined with the four quarterly dividends we paid in 2015, this increased our total dividends paid in 2015 to $0.76 per share.

We continued with our stock repurchase program. From the beginning of our first repurchase program in September of 2010 through the end of 2015, we have repurchased 25.33% of the original 12,233,125 shares of stock issued. On March 7, 2016, we announced the adoption of our seventh repurchase program.

26

What decisions have been made for 2015?

¡ We included total shareholder return as one of our performance metrics by adding it as a component of our LTIP. The first opportunity for payment based upon this metric is in 2016 based on our two-year performance for 2014 and 2015 compared to our peers. The maximum payment for reaching total shareholder return goals is 11% of base salary. This TSR component made the LTIP component 55% of the total opportunity, reducing the AIP opportunity to 45% of the total. For 2015, we also made it more difficult for our Named Executive Officers participating in the AIP to receive payments. Specifically, for the AIP we moved the target levels for all performance measures from the 50th percentile to the 75th percentile. For TSR, the target was established at the 50th percentile, with threshold at 25% and maximum at 75%.

What decisions have been made for 2016 and beyond?

¡ We continue to implement the changes made in the latter half of 2014. We are also requesting stockholder approval of an amendment to our 2010 Equity Plan so that, beginning in 2017, we can grant equity instead of cash for long-term performance-based compensation plans.

¡ At the Chief Executive Officer’s request, and as he has requested for the past two years, there was no base salary increase for the Chief Executive Officer for 2016.

II. Compensation Decision Process

What is the Compensation Committee’s Philosophy

on Named Executive Officer Compensation?

Our Compensation Committee has the responsibility for establishing and reviewing our compensation philosophy and objectives. In this role, the Compensation Committee has sought to design a compensation structure that attracts and retains qualified and experienced officers and, at the same time, is reasonable and competitive, taking into account both short- and long-term incentives. Prior to our initial public offering, our compensation consisted primarily of cash compensation (i.e., salary and bonuses, and retirement benefits). In 2010, we adopted a stock-based benefit plan, which was approved by stockholders at the 2010 annual meeting of stockholders. While the use of incentive compensation programs is an important element in our overall compensation philosophy, it is understood that incentive compensation programs, if not properly structured, could expose us to compensation-related enterprise risks. Therefore, we seek to structure, implement and monitor sound incentive compensation programs that promote the safety and soundness of Territorial Savings Bank and the Company.

When setting the compensation of Messrs. Kitagawa, Hirata, and Nakatsuka, the Compensation Committee generally seeks to provide total compensation (base salary, incentive payments under our Annual Incentive Plan and Long Term Incentive Plan, accruals under our retirement plans, and all other compensation) for these executive officers at the 50th to the 75th percentiles of total compensation for our peer group. This compensation philosophy is supported by upper or near upper quartile overall financial performance over the last five years and top quartile performance for credit quality

		27

when compared to our peer group, described below. Subjective adjustments can be made based on Territorial Bancorp Inc.’s financial performance or an officer’s experience or proven contribution to Territorial Savings Bank over time. Compensation for Messrs. Miyamoto and Lau is determined without reference to targets or peer group information. All Senior Vice Presidents have a discretionary bonus where the annual amount is recommended by the CEO to the Compensation Committee. The bonus is a percentage of salary, not to exceed 30%. The recommendation is based on the return on assets ratio for Territorial Savings Bank meeting or exceeding the target ROAA (i.e., 75th percentile for the Company’s peer group) for that year.

What is the role of the Compensation Committee in

determining named executive officer compensation?

Compensation for the named executive officers was determined under programs adopted by the Compensation Committee and approved by the Board of Directors. The Compensation Committee established our executive compensation philosophy, policy, elements and strategy and reviewed executive compensation proposals for approval by the Board of Directors. Specifically, the Compensation Committee:

¡ approves salary adjustments for named executive officers;

¡ determines the named executive officers eligible to participate in the Annual Incentive Plan and the Long Term Incentive Plan;

¡ assesses corporate performance results and the Chief Executive Officer’s assessment of individual performance results to determine award payouts for our named executive officers;

¡ oversees the benefit plans and perquisites for named executive officers; and

¡ assesses and monitors the performance, design, function and potential risk components of our compensation programs for our named executive officers.

The Compensation Committee adopts any changes to existing plans or adopts any new plans and their design as well as renews or extends any employment agreements for our Chief Executive Officer and selected Named Executive Officers and determines executive benefits, retirement plans and perquisites.

What is the role of management in determining

named executive officer compensation?

Mr. Kitagawa, our Chief Executive Officer, provides recommendations to the Compensation Committee on matters of compensation philosophy, plan design and the general guidelines for employee compensation. However, Mr. Kitagawa does not vote on and is not present for any discussion of his own compensation. These recommendations are then considered by the Compensation Committee. During 2015, consistent with our Compensation Committee Charter, Mr. Kitagawa did not attend Compensation Committee meetings where his compensation was discussed. Certain members of our management team participate in the Compensation Committee meetings to provide information to the committee on an as-needed basis.

28

In 2015, the Chief Executive Officer:

¡ recommended base salaries and cash incentive targets for named executive officers other than the Chief Executive Officer; and

¡ proposed incentive metrics and performance levels for the incentive plans.

None of the Named Executive Officers, including Mr. Kitagawa, were present when final decisions were made on these changes.

In 2016, the Chief Executive Officer discussed with the Compensation Committee’s compensation consultant whether to amend the existing equity incentive plan, subject to stockholder approval.

Who is the independent compensation consultant and what is the consultant’s role?

The Compensation Committee retained McLagan, a division of Aon Hewitt, and AON Hewitt (collectively referred to as “McLagan”) to provide the Compensation Committee with independent advice on executive compensation matters and to assist in making compensation recommendations to the Board of Directors. During 2015 into 2016, McLagan assisted the Compensation Committee by preparing information on competitive executive compensation levels and practices, compiling information relating to executive compensation from selected peer financial institutions (see “Peer Group Evaluation for 2015”), advising the Committee regarding its response to the 2015 Say-on-Pay vote and advising the Committee regarding amending the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan. McLagan reported directly to the Compensation Committee, which retains sole authority to select, retain, terminate, and approve the fees and other retention terms of its relationship with McLagan. McLagan had discussions with management and the Chair of the Compensation Committee on the redesign of existing plans, creation of a new plan and input on corporate governance changes related to executive compensation.

In 2015, the Compensation Committee reviewed its relationship with McLagan and Aon Hewitt. Considering all relevant factors, including those set forth in Rule 10C-1(b)(4)(i) through (vi) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Compensation Committee does not believe McLagan and Aon Hewitt’s work has raised a conflict of interest.

		29

What are the elements of our 2015 named executive officer compensation?

The following table outlines the major elements of 2015 total compensation for our named executive officers:

30

Do we consider input from stockholders in making compensation decisions?

With the support of our independent compensation consultant, McLagan, outside counsel, Luse Gorman, PC, and management, we continued our ongoing evaluation of our executive compensation program. Following our annual shareholders’ meeting in 2015, management continued our institutional stockholder outreach in 2015 to our 19 largest stockholders. At that time, this group represented 35% of our outstanding shares of common stock. Three of the firms discussed with us their say-on-pay vote and the rationale behind their vote. These results were shared with the entire Board.

		31

III. Compensation Decisions for 2015

Do we utilize a peer group for compensation comparisons?

Yes. For 2015 compensation decisions, McLagan provided the Compensation Committee with an analysis of executive total compensation compared to the compensation of the peer group of bank and thrift institutions similar to us in size and business profile, and which have become public institutions since 2008. The previous peer group, which was based on size and business profile, included 19 institutions at the beginning of 2014, but in 2015 using the same criteria, would have only included ten institutions, due to mergers and acquisitions.

The Compensation Committee approved the following peer group of 19 institutions. These financial institutions are generally companies with assets between $750 million and $5 billion, and which have become public institutions since 2008. The peer group also includes Central Pacific Financial Corp., due to geographic proximity and size. Heritage Financial Group was acquired by Renasant Corporation in 2015. Financial information for Heritage Financial Group was not available but salary data for Heritage Financial Group executive officers was included in the market analysis provided by McLagan.

32

What is the pay mix for named executive officers?

For 2015, the performance-based pay was split in the following manner. As described above, the Long-term Incentive Plan has resulted in 55% of total variable pay being based upon long-term performance and 45% based upon annual performance objectives. This reinforces our focus on long-term profitable results.

What are the base salaries of each named executive officer?

The Compensation Committee considers general market movement, individual performance, and the recommendation of Mr. Kitagawa (for all executives other than himself) in making base salary adjustments. The base salary for Mr. Kitagawa is recommended by the Committee to the full Board of Directors for approval. Before providing a recommendation to the Board, the Committee considers base salaries paid to chief executive officers in the peer group in addition to the factors below. Our Senior Vice President and Treasurer and our Senior Vice President and Chief Lending Officer received base salary adjustments of 2%, which were effective January 1, 2015. Our Named Executive Officers received base salary increases of 2%, effective January 1, 2015, except for Mr. Kitagawa who requested that he not be given a raise for either year.

Base salaries for each of the named executive officers are shown in the table below.

Base salary is the primary source of compensation for services performed during the year for all employees. Base salary ranges for named executive officers are determined based on the executive’s position and performance and, for Messrs. Kitagawa, Hirata, and Nakatsuka, compensation levels paid

		33

by our peers to executives in similar positions. Base salaries are reviewed annually and adjusted from time to time to realign salaries with market levels after taking into account individual responsibilities, performance, and experience.

During its review of base salaries for executives, the Compensation Committee primarily considers:

¡ market data for peer institutions, direct competitors, and publicly held businesses located in Hawaii, as the cost of living in Hawaii is significantly higher than in the continental United States;

¡ internal review of the executive’s compensation, both individual and relative to others;

¡ internal performance of the executive;

¡ qualifications and experience of the executive;

¡ our financial condition and results of operations, including the tax and accounting impact of particular forms of compensation; and

¡ the percent used for company-wide salary increases.

Special Salary Considerations

The Compensation Committee’s determination with respect to Mr. Kitagawa’s base salary, as well as the overall level of compensation, was based upon non-formula criteria, including Mr. Kitagawa’s considerable experience in the banking industry and his contribution to Territorial Savings Bank as Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer over the course of almost 30 years. As a result of these considerations, Mr. Kitagawa’s base salary exceeds the 90th percentile of base salaries set forth above for the highest paid officer of the peer group companies. The Compensation Committee’s determination with respect to Mr. Hirata’s base salary reflects his considerable experience in the banking industry and his contribution to Territorial Savings Bank over the course of almost 30 years. As a result, Mr. Hirata’s base salary was near the 70th percentile of base salaries set forth above for the second highest paid officer of the peer group companies. Mr. Nakatsuka’s base salary was established at the same level as Mr. Hirata’s base salary, reflecting Mr. Nakatsuka’s position with Territorial Savings Bank as well as his considerable experience in the banking industry. This creation of the Co-Chief Operating Officer positions followed the retirement of the former President-Chief Operating Officer. Mr. Kitagawa assumed the title of President, while the Chief Operating Officer position was split between Mr. Hirata and Mr. Nakatsuka (who was hired from another bank). Thus, the compensation of the two chief operating officers are relatively equal and the Company’s succession plan contemplates the selection of one of these individuals as our next chief executive officer should Mr. Kitagawa retire. On average, salaries for the named executive officers are near the 75th percentile of the peer group.

The Compensation Committee also took into account the fact that other financial institutions in Hawaii have seen great turnover in their senior leadership positions during Messrs. Kitagawa’s and Hirata’s tenures with us. Some of that turnover was due to operational difficulties and some was due to our growth and profitability as a competitor for those institutions. Moreover, during their tenure, our senior leadership team transformed Territorial Savings Bank from a negative net worth mutually-owned organization into the stable, well-capitalized publicly traded financial institution that we are today.

34

What were possible cash incentives for

2015 and how were payouts determined?

Our Chief Executive Officer and our Co-Chief Operating Officers are eligible to participate in our Annual Incentive Plan, or AIP, and our Long-Term Incentive Plan, or LTIP. By implementing pay methodologies that utilize well-defined performance metrics and measure financial and strategic performance, the Committee believes that it can properly and adequately motivate our named executive officers to achieve our business goals and enhance long-term stockholder value without creating incentives for excessive risk-taking.

Our Senior Vice Presidents are eligible to receive discretionary cash bonuses.

Each of these is described in more detail below.

Annual Incentive Plan.    The AIP is designed to motivate executives to attain superior annual performance in key areas that we believe create long-term value to us and our stockholders. Awards under the AIP are contingent on performance as compared to peers.

The Compensation Committee determined that awards for the year ended December 31, 2015 would be limited by an amount equal to 7.5% of our net income before taxes, and could be reduced in accordance with the terms of the AIP. During our 2014 outreach to stockholders, some of our stockholders indicated that our performance goals should be more difficult to achieve. In response to these concerns, in 2014 the Compensation Committee retroactively increased the target performance goals for the AIP to the 75th percentile as a further exercise of its negative discretion for those NEOs participating in this plan. This move correlated to the philosophy of the Committee that compensation for these individuals should range between the 50th percentile to 75th percentile for officers with a comparable standing at the Company’s peers.

2015 Goals & Results

The Compensation Committee selected the following quantitative corporate performance factors for use in the 2015 AIP. The AIP criteria were revised in late 2014 by the Compensation Committee to increase the rigor of the performance goals, in response to comments received from some of our institutional investors. Thus, the target now requires that the Company perform at the 75th percentile of its peers. This rigor remains for the 2015 AIP. Results for 2015 were calculated for the Compensation Committee based upon quarterly peer group financial information provided by McLagan. No award is paid if actual results are below the threshold.

		35

AIP Award Opportunities & Award Results

The Committee established these AIP award opportunities for 2015, after consultation with McLagan.

Performance on these measures resulted in payments to the following Named Executive Officers in the following amounts under the AIP. The determination was made in March 2016 by the Compensation Committee after reviewing the degree to which our financial and strategic performance goals were achieved during 2015.

Discretionary Cash Bonuses

All of our Senior Vice Presidents, including Messrs. Miyamoto and Lau are eligible to receive an annual cash bonus, the amount of which is discretionary. Messrs. Kitagawa, Hirata, and Nakatsuka do not receive any discretionary cash bonuses. For 2015, the awards were based on (i) our achieving slightly below the target return on average assets performance measure and (ii) individual performance results.

Long Term Incentive Plan. The LTIP was initially approved in 2012 to reward executives for the long-term performance of Territorial Savings Bank and provides payment in the form of cash. The Compensation Committee has made changes to the LTIP each year in order to ensure we continue to have a strong link between pay and long-term performance. The chart below is an overview of how the plan has operated in 2013, 2014, and 2015 with each year discussed in further detail below. As described in further detail below, 2013 and 2014 structures are shown along with the 2015 plan because the LTIP is cash-based and portions of the 2013 and 2014 plan were earned in 2015, with such payments disclosed in the Summary Compensation Table.

36

2013 LTIP

The 2013 LTIP was based on ROAA compared to peers from 2013 to 2015. The first table below shows the ROAA goal at threshold, target and maximum along with our actual performance. The second table shows the opportunities for each executive along with the actual amount earned based on performance being achieved at maximum. Because the performance period ended in 2015, the award amounts are included as 2015 payments in the Summary Compensation Table.

(1) The ROAA threshold is set at 85% of target, the ROAA target is set at the 50th percentile and the ROAA maximum is set at 115% of target.

2014 LTIP

The 2014 LTIP is based on ROAA and TSR compared to peers. The first table below shows the performance goals at threshold, target and maximum along with our actual performance for the TSR portion of the award (the performance period for the ROAA portion of the award is ongoing). The second table shows the total opportunities for each executive along with the actual amount earned in 2015 based on our TSR performance. Because the performance period ended in 2015 for the TSR portion of the award, these amounts are included as 2015 payments in the Summary Compensation Table.

(1)  For Relative TSR, peer performance at threshold, target and maximum was 19.2%, 29.2% and 50.6%, respectively, and our performance was 27.4%.

(1)  Results do not include the relative ROAA portion of the plan as the performance period is ongoing.

2015 LTIP

The 2015 LTIP is based on ROAE and TSR compared to peers. The first table below shows the performance goals at threshold, target and maximum. The second table shows the total opportunities for each executive. The amount earned, if any, will be reported in the Summary Compensation Table in the year earned.

IV. Equity, Benefits and other Compensation Related Policies

Why are awards under the AIP and LTIP only in cash?

Were any equity awards granted in 2015?

No equity awards have been granted to our named executive officers since 2010 when the Equity Incentive Plan was approved by stockholders. There are currently limited shares available for grant under the Equity Incentive Plan.

Prior to Territorial Savings Bank converting to a public institution in 2009, we could only award cash incentives to our executive officers. Upon completion of the mutual-to-stock conversion, and as described in the Prospectus for our related stock offering, in 2010 we presented to our shareholders, and our shareholders approved, an equity incentive plan that provided for the grants of stock options and restricted stock. As was consistent with the majority of grants made under these plans following a mutual-to-stock conversion, the grants we made in 2010 were time-based vesting grants. The last vesting will occur in 2016. For Territorial Bancorp Inc. and Territorial Savings Bank, this plan provided stock-based compensation in addition to our cash-based performance awards.

The Compensation Committee has discussed whether a new equity incentive plan is currently needed to transition our existing incentive compensation from cash to a mixture of cash, stock and stock options. As a result of these discussions, the Compensation Committee has determined to request shareholder approval to amend the Equity Incentive Plan to permit the Compensation Committee to replace some of our cash incentives with equity incentives.

For more information, see “Proposal 4 — Approval of the Amendment to the Territorial Bancorp Inc. 2010 Equity Incentive Plan.”

What are the terms of equity awards under the Equity Incentive Plan?

Restricted stock and stock options granted in 2010 contained the following conditions to ensure that grants are viewed as long-term incentive compensation:

¡  Six year vesting schedule (1/6th per year);

¡  50% of each award (net of taxes) must be retained by the grantee until termination of employment; and

		39

¡  No automatic vesting upon retirement. Rather, taking into account that some of our senior executives and directors are close to what many people might consider retirement age, and that their long tenure and expertise are very valuable, unique resources that we may wish to continue to rely upon after their retirement, the grants provide that if the individual is asked by us to continue to serve as a consultant following termination of service (including termination of service due to retirement), vesting credit will continue to be earned during the post-termination period of service. Structuring the vesting schedule in this manner has the added benefit of avoiding an immediate financial statement expense, which otherwise would have occurred if the grants had provided for accelerated vesting upon retirement.

The Compensation Committee believes that these conditions also mitigate against inappropriate risk-taking behavior by the grantee by ensuring that the grantee’s individual business decisions that are made during the course of the grantee’s service with us do not have the effect of maximizing short-term share value, which, in turn, could inappropriately increase the grantee’s short-term compensation from us.

In general, awards become fully vested upon death, disability, or change in control (as defined in the plan). Generally, even if the awards are unvested, dividends are paid on restricted stock awards and restricted stock awards are entitled to vote. Stock options are generally granted with exercise prices equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant and are intended, to the extent permissible under applicable law, to be incentive stock options. In general, the Board of Directors may amend or terminate the Equity Incentive Plan or any award, except that consent of the affected individual is required if the amendment adversely impairs his or her rights under an outstanding award. However, the Board may not amend the Equity Incentive Plan to allow repricing, materially increase the number of shares that may be issued under the Plan, materially increase the benefits accruing to a participant, or materially modify the requirements for participation in the Plan, without approval of stockholders. The term of the Equity Incentive Plan is ten years.

What benefits and perquisites do named executive officers have?

We offer various fringe benefits to all of our employees, including medical, dental, vision, group life, accidental death and dismemberment and long-term disability insurance. We provide individual coverage to employees, with the employee being responsible for a portion of the premium. In addition, for some of our named executive officers we pay for an automobile or an automobile allowance, parking, club dues, long-term care insurance, spousal travel (at national trade conventions where spouses are expected to participate in the networking activities), and up to $5,000 in personal tax and financial planning assistance (up to $6,000 for Mr. Kitagawa) annually. The Compensation Committee believes these benefits are appropriate and assist these officers in fulfilling their employment obligations.

What retirement benefits do named executive officers have?

¡ 401(k) Plan. We provide all of our employees, including our named executive officers, with tax-qualified retirement benefits through our 401(k) plan. All employees who meet the age and service requirements may participate in the 401(k) plan on a nondiscriminatory basis. We provide a 401(k) match equal to at least 5% of a participant’s salary deferral and we may exercise our discretion to increase the amount of the match.

40

¡ Employee Stock Ownership Plan. In connection with our initial public stock offering, we implemented an employee stock ownership plan (“ESOP”), using the proceeds of a loan from Territorial Bancorp Inc. to purchase our common stock pursuant to applicable regulatory guidelines. The ESOP provides our employees with additional retirement savings in the form of our common stock and encourages employee ownership. See “—Executive Officer Compensation—Tax-Qualified Benefit Plans—Employee Stock Ownership Plan” for further description of the terms of the ESOP.

¡ Supplemental Employee Stock Ownership Plan. Territorial Savings Bank adopted the Supplemental Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“Supplemental ESOP”) effective January 1, 2009, to provide certain executives with benefits that they would otherwise be entitled to under the tax-qualified employee stock ownership plan, but for limitations imposed by the Internal Revenue Code. See “Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans—Supplemental Employee Stock Ownership Plan” for further information about the Supplemental ESOP.

¡ Supplemental Executive Retirement Agreement. We provide supplemental executive retirement benefits for Messrs. Kitagawa, Hirata, and Nakatsuka. We provide these retirement benefits in order to remain competitive and to attract and retain these executive officers. See “Pension Benefits—Supplemental Executive Retirement Agreements” for further description of the terms of the agreements.

¡ Pension Plan. In 2008, we froze our tax-qualified defined benefit plan such that no further benefit accruals will be earned after December 31, 2008; however, participants will continue to earn vesting credit. We made this change because many of our peer banks have also frozen or terminated their defined benefit pension plans, and we have found that a 401(k) plan and ESOP are more attractive retirement vehicles in recruiting and retaining employees.

Do named executive officers have employment agreements?

Yes. We maintain employment agreements with Messrs. Kitagawa, Hirata and Nakatsuka, which provide severance payments in the event of involuntary or good reason termination of employment or termination following a change in control. The rationale for providing these payments is to provide security for our key executives and stability among our senior management team. For a discussion of these agreements and the payments that would be received by the named executive officers under certain scenarios with respect to those agreements, see “—Executive Officer Compensation—Employment Agreements” below.

Do we consider the deductibility of executive compensation?

Yes. Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code generally provides that no deduction is allowed for compensation in excess of $1 million paid by a public company to its chief executive officer or any of its other three most highly paid executive officers (other than the chief financial officer). Compensation that qualifies as “performance-based” compensation is not subject to the deductibility limit. The Compensation Committee attempts to maximize the deductibility of compensation under Section 162(m) to the extent doing so is reasonable and consistent with our strategies and goals. To that end, in 2012, we received stockholder approval for the Annual Incentive Plan. This allows us to

		41

continue to maximize the deductibility of our executive compensation programs for 2012 and future years. However, the Committee recognizes that paying certain compensation that is not tax-deductible may sometimes be in our best interest, and to that end we do not have a policy requiring that all compensation must be deductible.

Do we conduct an annual risk review of compensation policies and procedures?

Yes. The Compensation Committee is responsible for the oversight of employee compensation policies and procedures, including the determination of whether any material risk arises from our compensation policies and procedures. The Compensation Committee has reviewed our compensation policies and procedures, including those related to the payment of commissions and bonuses to any of our employees, and believes that any risks arising from our compensation policies and practices are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on Territorial Bancorp Inc. and Territorial Savings Bank. The Committee has evaluated the risks of its incentive compensation arrangements in accordance with published bank regulatory guidance on safety and soundness of incentive compensation. The Committee also works with an outside compensation consultant that is independent when designing the compensation of our top three named executive officers.

Do we have stock ownership guidelines beyond those described in

“What are the terms of equity awards under the Equity Incentive Plan?”?

Yes. The Board of Directors adopted stock ownership guidelines for Named Executive Officers in 2015. The Chief Executive Officer is required to own stock of at least three times (3x) his base salary. The other Named Executive Officers are required to own stock of at least two times (2x) their base salary.

Does the Company prohibit hedging or pledging of its stock?

Yes. Our Insider Trading Policy prohibits pledging of stock (with limited exceptions that generally require board approval) and hedging of stock, which further encourages the retention of grants of restricted stock and shares acquired on the exercise of stock options.

Executive Officer Compensation

Summary Compensation Table. The table below summarizes the total compensation paid to or earned by our named executive officers for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013, as calculated under Securities and Exchange Commission rules. Cash compensation earned for the applicable year is reported in the “Salary,” “Bonus,” “Nonequity Incentive Plan Compensation” and the “All Other Compensation” columns. The “Change in Pension Value and Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Earnings” column sets forth certain earnings on supplemental executive retirement benefits, as well as the change in value of pension and supplemental executive retirement benefits, which can fluctuate significantly from year-to-year based on changes in discount rates and other actuarial assumptions and does not necessarily reflect the benefit to be received by the executive. “Total Without Change in Pension Value” shows total compensation as determined under Securities and Exchange Commission rules minus the change in pension value.

(1) The amounts in this column represent discretionary cash bonuses.

(2) The amounts in this column represent the dollar value of the cash bonus incentives earned under the Annual Incentive Plan, the 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan and the TSR portion of the 2014 Long-Term Incentive Plan.

(3) The amounts in this column depend heavily on changes in actuarial assumptions, such as discount rates. Decreases in the 2015 change in pension value compared to 2014 were due to higher discount rates and changes to the mortality improvement tables as determined by the Society of Actuaries. For 2015, the amount in this column for Mr. Kitagawa represents a change in value for the pension plan, the amount in this column for Mr. Hirata represents a change in value of $(5,622) for the pension plan, $82,843 for the supplemental executive retirement agreement and $6,083 for above-market earnings (defined for these purposes as the difference between 7%, which is the annual amount of interest paid on the deferred account balances, and 5.64%, which is 120% of the applicable federal long-term rate for December 2004 (the

		43

rate at the time the interest rate was established)); for Mr. Nakatsuka a change in value of $(368) for the pension plan and $160,095 for the supplemental executive retirement agreement. Messrs. Miyamoto and Lau had changes in value for the pension plan of $(4,606) and $(76,592) for 2015. Pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission regulations, reductions in value for the pension plan are not reflected in this column.

(4) Includes $912 for 401(k) plan matching contributions, $1,778 for long-term care premiums, $3,496 for personal use of company automobile, $1,620 for parking, $10,978 for club dues and fees, $31,899 for ESOP allocations, $164,660 for non-qualified supplemental ESOP allocations, $38,358 for cash dividends paid on unvested shares of restricted stock and $3,424 for life insurance.

(5) Includes $912 for 401(k) plan matching contributions, $898 for long-term care premiums, $7,200 for automobile allowance, $1,620 for parking, $28,015 for ESOP allocations, $1,341 for life insurance, and $3,071 for cash dividends paid on unvested shares of restricted stock.

(6) Includes $912 for 401(k) plan matching contributions, $1,382 for long-term care premiums, $3,575 for personal use of company automobile, $1,620 for parking, $5,324 for club dues and fees, $31,899 for ESOP allocations, $66,620 for non-qualified supplemental ESOP allocations, $25,315 for cash dividends paid on unvested shares of restricted stock, $1,253 for life insurance and $657 for spousal travel.

(7) Includes $912 for 401(k) plan matching contributions, $1,433 for long-term care premiums, $1,695 for personal use of company automobile, $1,620 for parking, $6,390 for club dues and fees, $31,899 for ESOP allocations, $61,042 for non-qualified supplemental ESOP allocations, $22,247 for cash dividends paid on unvested shares of restricted stock, $1,651 for life insurance and $1,340 for spousal travel.

(8) Includes $912 for 401(k) plan matching contributions, $1,373 for long-term care premiums, $7,200 for automobile allowance, $1,620 for parking, $2,190 for club dues and fees, $30,136 for ESOP allocations, $2,912 for life insurance, and $3,071 for cash dividends paid on unvested shares of restricted stock.

Plan-Based Awards. The following table sets forth for the year ended December 31, 2015 certain information as to grants of plan-based awards for the named executive officers. There were no equity awards made for the year ended December 31, 2015.

(1) On an annual basis, Messrs. Kitagawa, Hirata, and Nakatsuka are eligible to receive incentive cash bonuses under the Annual Incentive Plan. Mr. Miyamoto and Mr. Lau do not participate in the plan.

For the year ended December 31, 2015, cash payments under our Annual Incentive Plan were paid in March 2016 in the amounts listed in the “Summary Compensation Table.” For a discussion of this plan, see “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—What were possible cash incentives for 2015 and how were payouts determined?”

44

Outstanding Equity Awards at Year End. The following table sets forth information with respect to outstanding equity awards as of December 31, 2015 for the named executive officers.

Option Exercises and Stock Vested. The following table sets forth information with respect to option exercises and stock that vested during the year ended December 31, 2015 for the named executive officers.

Equity awards set forth in the tables above were granted pursuant to the Territorial Bancorp Inc. 2010 Equity Incentive Plan on August 19, 2010. All of the awards vest at a rate of one-sixth per year beginning August 19, 2011. Awards become fully vested upon death, disability, or change in control (as defined in the plan), but do not automatically vest upon retirement. Awards may continue to vest if the named executive officer continues to provide post-retirement consulting services, at our request. We may request such services when the named executive officer retires, because, among other reasons, we may believe that the individual’s tenure with us and expertise may be a valuable and unique resource that we may wish to continue to rely upon after the named executive officer’s retirement in order to maintain our stability, growth, and success. Structuring the vesting schedule in

		45

this manner avoids an immediate financial statement expense, which we otherwise may have incurred if certain grants had provided for accelerated vesting upon retirement, due to the fact that some of our named executive officers are close to what many people might consider normal retirement age. In addition, for all of the 2010 grants, 50% of each award (net of taxes) must be retained by the grantee until termination of employment. The long vesting period, no automatic vesting upon retirement, and the mandatory holding requirement for 50% of each award, are all intended to ensure that the grants are viewed as long-term incentive compensation. Stock option grants are intended to be incentive stock options to the extent permissible under applicable law. Stock options are generally exercisable for three months after termination of employment and for one year following death or disability. Restricted stock granted pursuant to a restricted stock award is entitled to vote and to receive dividends, even while the award is unvested. The rate of dividends paid on shares of restricted stock is not preferential. For a discussion of this Plan, see “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—What are the terms of equity awards under the Equity Incentive Plan?”

Employment Agreements. Territorial Savings Bank has entered into separate employment agreements with Messrs. Kitagawa, Hirata, and Nakatsuka (referred to below as the “executives” or “executive”). Territorial Bancorp Inc. has entered into separate employment agreements with each executive, which have essentially identical provisions as the Territorial Savings Bank agreements, except that the employment agreements will provide that Territorial Bancorp Inc. will make any payments not made by Territorial Savings Bank under its agreements with the executives and that the executives will not receive any duplicate payments. Our continued success depends to a significant degree on the skills and competence of these officers, and the employment agreements are intended to ensure that we maintain a stable management base following the offering.

The employment agreements each provide for three-year terms, subject to annual renewal by the Board of Directors for an additional year beyond the then-current expiration date. The current base salaries under the employment agreements are $851,124 for Mr. Kitagawa, $315,084 for Mr. Hirata, and $315,084 for Mr. Nakatsuka. The agreements also provide for participation in employee benefit plans and programs maintained for the benefit of senior management personnel, including discretionary bonuses, participation in stock-based benefit plans, and certain fringe benefits as described in the agreements.

Upon termination of an executive’s employment for cause, as defined in each of the agreements, the executive will receive no further compensation or benefits under the agreement. If we terminate the executive for reasons other than for cause or if the executive terminates voluntarily under specified circumstances that constitute constructive termination, the executive will receive an amount equal to the base salary and cash bonus and employer contributions to benefit plans that would have been payable for the remaining term of the agreement. We will also continue to pay for each executive’s life, health, and dental coverage for up to three years, with the executive responsible for his share of the employee premium.

If the executive terminates employment for any reason other than for cause within 12 months following a change in control, the executive will receive the greater of (a) the amount he would have received if we terminated the executive for a reason other than for cause or if the executive voluntarily terminated under specified circumstances that constitute constructive termination (as described in the immediately preceding paragraph), or (b) three times his prior five-year average of taxable compensation less one dollar. We will also continue to pay for each executive’s life, health, and dental coverage for up to three years, with the executive responsible for his share of the employee premium.

46

Upon termination of employment (other than a termination in connection with a change in control), each executive will be required to adhere to a one-year noncompetition provision. The executive will be required to release us from any and all claims in order to receive any payments and benefits under his agreement. We will agree to pay all reasonable costs and legal fees of the executives in relation to the enforcement of the employment agreements, provided the executives succeed on the merits in a legal judgment, arbitration proceeding, or settlement. The employment agreements also provide for indemnification of the executives to the fullest extent legally permissible.

Separation Pay Plan. The Territorial Savings Bank Separation Pay Plan provides severance benefits to eligible employees whose employment is involuntarily terminated within 24 months after a change in control of Territorial Bancorp Inc. All regular employees who do not receive severance pay under an employment or change in control agreement are participants in this plan. Terminated employees will receive a severance payment of one month of base compensation for each year of service, up to a maximum of 24 months of base compensation, and employees who are at the level of Senior Vice President or above will receive a minimum severance payment of 12 months of base compensation. In addition, terminated employees who are at the level of Senior Vice President and above will also be eligible to continue to participate in our health insurance plan for up to one year, with the employee responsible for their share of the employee premium.

Pension Benefits

The following table sets forth the actuarial present value of each named executive officer’s accumulated benefit under our pension plan, along with the number of years of credited service, and for Messrs. Kitagawa, Hirata, and Nakatsuka, the value of their benefits in each of their supplemental executive retirement agreements.

(1) Present value of accumulated benefits under the pension plan and the supplemental executive retirement agreement as of December 31, 2015, determined using interest rate and mortality rate assumptions consistent with those used for our financial reporting purposes, assuming that the executive’s normal retirement age is his retirement date. The valuation method and all material assumptions applied in quantifying the present value of the current accrued benefit are set forth in the footnotes to the consolidated financial statements.

		47

Pension Plan. Territorial Savings Bank sponsors the Territorial Savings Bank Employee Retirement Plan, a defined benefit pension plan that covers substantially all of our employees. Employees become eligible for participation in the pension plan on the first day of the calendar month on or after completing one year of service and attaining age 21. Effective December 31, 2008, the pension plan was frozen, such that no further benefit accruals will be earned after that date; however, participants will continue to earn vesting credit.

Participants in the pension plan become fully vested in their retirement benefits upon completion of five years of service. They also become 100% vested upon attaining age 65 or upon death. A participant who terminates employment on or after reaching age 65 is entitled to the full retirement benefit. A participant’s normal retirement benefit is generally based on a formula that takes into account the amount credited under the pension plan for service before January 1, 1984, and the amount credited under the pension plan for service from 1984 to 1998 and the amount credited from 1998 to 2008, as well as salary and certain other compensation. The plan does not grant additional years of service for any purpose.

The pension plan permits early retirement at age 55. Participants who retire after age 65 will be entitled to the full amount of their benefit, generally calculated through their late retirement date. Eligible participants who elect an early retirement benefit will receive a reduced normal retirement benefit. As of December 31, 2015, Messrs. Hirata, Nakatsuka, and Miyamoto were each eligible for early retirement, and Messrs. Kitagawa and Lau were each eligible for normal retirement.

The normal form of retirement for participants who are not married is a single life annuity. The normal form of retirement benefit for participants who are married is a 50% joint and survivor annuity. Other optional forms of benefit are available, such as an early retirement benefit, and all optional forms of benefit are the actuarial equivalent of the normal form (e.g., a participant does not receive more or less by selecting an optional form of benefit). In the event of the participant’s death, benefits normally will be paid to the participant’s spouse unless the spouse consents to an alternative beneficiary in writing. In the event of death any time after a participant is vested or eligible for a pension benefit, provided the participant has been married for at least one year and provided that benefits have not commenced at the time of death, the participant’s spouse may either receive the full benefit when the participant would have reached age 65 or receive a reduced benefit anytime after the deceased participant would have attained age 55.

For the 2015 plan year, we made a contribution of $1.0 million to the pension plan.

Supplemental Executive Retirement Agreements. We provide supplemental executive retirement benefits to each of Messrs. Kitagawa, Hirata, and Nakatsuka. Under Mr. Kitagawa’s agreement, he is entitled to receive an amount equal to the present value of $600,000 per year for 15 years payable in a lump sum on the first day of the month upon retirement after attaining age 66. Under the agreements with Messrs. Hirata and Nakatsuka, each executive will receive an annual benefit upon retirement after age 66 equal to 65% of the average of his compensation for the three years immediately preceding his termination of employment reduced by the sum of the benefits payable under the pension plan and Social Security benefits. Mr. Hirata’s benefits will be paid in monthly installments for 15 years and Mr. Nakatsuka will receive a lump sum equal to the present value of installments over 15 years.

Each executive may also retire early, before attaining age 66, and receive a reduced benefit. Mr. Kitagawa will receive the amount accrued for accounting purposes as of the end of the calendar

48

year before his termination of employment, payable in a lump sum. Messrs. Hirata’s and Nakatsuka’s benefits are reduced by a fraction, the numerator of which is completed years of service and the denominator of which is the executive’s potential years of service if he had remained employed until age 66, with such benefits paid by lump sum for Mr. Nakatsuka and in installments for Mr. Hirata over 15 years.

For Mr. Kitagawa, if his employment is terminated within three years following a change in control, he will receive his normal retirement benefit. Messrs. Hirata and Nakatsuka will each receive 65% of their final average compensation projected to age 66, without any reduction for amounts payable under the pension plan or Social Security. All amounts are paid as a lump sum, except Mr. Hirata will receive installments for 15 years. The agreements contain change of control “tax gross up” provisions such that if a payment to any of the three executives exceeds the limit on such payments pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 280G, and thereby imposes an excise tax on the officer, Territorial Savings Bank, or its successor, will pay such executive additional amounts to compensate for the excise tax.

In the event of disability or death, Messrs. Hirata and Nakatsuka will receive the same benefit as if they had terminated employment following a change in control. Upon death, Mr. Kitagawa’s designee will receive a lump-sum payment equal to the present value of his projected normal retirement benefit and upon disability Mr. Kitagawa will receive a lump sum equal to the amount accrued for accounting purposes under the plan.

No benefits are payable in the event of a termination for cause.

Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plans

The following table provides information with respect to each non-qualified deferred compensation plan in which the named executive officers participated in 2015.

(1) The amount in this column includes above-market earnings for the executive deferred incentive agreement in the amount of $6,083, which have been reported as compensation for the year ended December 31, 2015 in the Summary Compensation Table. The account balance accrues interest at the rate of 7% per year. We ceased making contributions to the agreements for calendar years beginning after 2006 (other than the interest crediting).

(2) Amounts attributed to above-market earnings have been reported as compensation for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013 in the Summary Compensation Table.

Executive Deferred Incentive Agreement. We provide executive deferred incentive benefits to Mr. Hirata, whose agreement was frozen effective August 29, 2007. Before the agreement was frozen, it provided for the grant of annual cash awards equal to a specified percentage of base salary, based on the attainment of established criteria. Payment of all awards is deferred until the earlier of:

¡  normal retirement age,

¡  early termination,

		49

¡  separation from service within three years following a change in control,

¡  termination due to disability, or

¡  death, in which case the benefit will be paid in a lump sum.

Supplemental Employee Stock Ownership Plan. Territorial Savings Bank adopted the Supplemental Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“Supplemental ESOP”) effective January 1, 2009, to provide certain executives with benefits that they otherwise would be entitled to under the tax-qualified Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”), but for limitations imposed by the Internal Revenue Code. During 2015, three employees participated in the Supplemental ESOP. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Territorial Savings Bank administers the Supplemental ESOP. Each year, participants in the Supplemental ESOP are credited with a dollar amount equal to the difference between the value of the shares of our common stock that would have been allocated to the participant under the tax-qualified ESOP, but for the limitations imposed by the Internal Revenue Code, and the actual value of shares of our common stock allocated to the participant under the ESOP for the relevant plan year. Participants in the Supplemental ESOP may direct the investment of their Supplemental ESOP accounts among a select group of broadly diversified mutual funds selected by the Compensation Committee. Benefits are generally payable in a cash lump sum within 90 days of the first to occur of: (i) the participant’s separation from service; (ii) the participant’s death; (iii) the participant’s disability; or (iv) a change in control of Territorial Savings Bank or Territorial Bancorp Inc., but, in order to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, payments will be delayed for six months for any “specified employee” (as defined in Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code).

Potential Payments on Termination or Change in Control

Assuming that each of our named executive officers terminated employment as of December 31, 2015, they would have been entitled to certain payments and benefits, as set forth in the following tables. Information with respect to Messrs. Kitagawa, Hirata and Nakatsuka is based upon their employment agreements. No other named executive officer was a party to an employment agreement as of December 31, 2015. There are no payments or benefits payable solely on account of a change in control.

50

		51

(1) These severance payments are payable if the executive’s employment is terminated either (i) by Territorial Savings Bank or Territorial Bancorp Inc. for any reason other than cause, death, or disability or (ii) by the executive if Territorial Savings Bank or Territorial Bancorp Inc. takes certain adverse actions (a “good reason” termination). The Involuntary Termination Without Cause or Termination by the Executive for Good Reason column represents a lump sum payment equal to the base salary and bonus and retirement benefits the executive would have received for the remaining term of his employment agreement, which, as of December 31, 2015, was 25 months for each of Messrs. Kitagawa, Hirata, and Nakatsuka. The Change in Control With Termination of Employment column represents the greater of (a) the amount shown in the Involuntary Termination Without Cause or Termination by the Executive for Good Reason column, or (b) a lump-sum payment equal to three times the executive’s prior five-year average of taxable compensation less one dollar. The amounts are not discounted to present value. Messrs. Kitagawa, Hirata, and Nakatsuka would also be entitled to a gross-up payment of approximately $0, $668,617, and $474,857, respectively, in the event of a change in control and termination of employment. The amounts shown in the above tables are based on the terms of the amended Territorial Savings Bank employment agreements, which were adopted on October 29, 2008, and the Territorial Bancorp Inc. employment agreements adopted on November 13, 2009. Messrs. Miyamoto and Lau do not have employment agreements that provide severance benefits. However, under our Separation Pay Plan, Messrs. Miyamoto and Lau would have been entitled to 24 months of severance pay and 12 months of subsidized continued health insurance coverage if their employment terminated as of December 31, 2015, and if a change in control had occurred.

(2) Represents the estimated cost of continuing medical, dental, and life insurance premiums for three years for Messrs. Kitagawa, Hirata and Nakatsuka, and the estimated cost of continuing medical and dental insurance premiums for one year for Messrs. Miyamoto and Lau. The estimated costs do not assume an increase in current premiums and the amounts have not been discounted to present value.

(3) If the executive’s employment is terminated due to death, the executive’s beneficiaries or estate will receive an amount equal to 60 days of the executive’s current base salary.

(4) Mr. Kitagawa would not receive disability severance payments under his employment agreement because he already attained age 65. The Termination Upon Disability column represents the total amount of disability benefits payable and the amount has not been discounted to present value. In addition, under each of Messrs. Hirata’s and Nakatsuka’s employment agreements, coverage under our life insurance, nontaxable medical, health and dental plans would continue in the same manner in which the executive received coverage on the last day of his employment, under the same cost-sharing arrangement as was in effect on that date, until the earlier of the executive’s return to full-time employment with us, employment by another employer, death, or attainment of normal retirement age. The number shown above reflects continued coverage through age 65 for each of Messrs. Hirata and Nakatsuka. Messrs. Miyamoto and Lau do not have employment agreements that provide any disability benefits.

(5) The value of the unvested stock options is equal to the product of (a) the difference between our stock price on December 31, 2015 ($27.74 per share) and the exercise price of the stock options and (b) the number of unvested stock options held by the executive.

52

(6) The value of the unvested restricted stock is equal to our stock price on December 31, 2015 ($27.74 per share), multiplied by the number of unvested shares held by the executive.

The above table does not include the value of the benefits to be paid under supplemental employee retirement agreements in the event an executive terminates employment due to early retirement, disability, change in control, or death, which had an estimated present value of $0 for early retirement and $6,349,107 for disability, change in control and death for Mr. Kitagawa, and $1,019,147, $2,086,527, $2,086,527, and $3,210,042, respectively, for Mr. Hirata and $1,011,408, $2,052,702, $2,052,702, and $3,158,003, respectively, for Mr. Nakatsuka as of December 31, 2015. In addition, Mr. Kitagawa became eligible for normal retirement in May 2011 under his supplemental employee retirement agreement, under which he would have been entitled to $6,349,107 as of December 31, 2015. Neither Mr. Hirata nor Mr. Nakatsuka would have been entitled to a normal retirement benefit under the supplemental executive retirement agreements as of December 31, 2015. Messrs. Kitagawa’s and Nakatsuka’s benefits are payable by lump sum and Mr. Hirata’s benefits are payable over 15 years. The present value amounts shown for Mr. Hirata represent the present value of the 15 years of payments to be made to him. In addition, the above table does not include $478,566 to be paid to Mr. Hirata under his Executive Deferred Incentive Agreement in the event he terminates employment due to normal or early retirement, disability, change in control, or death.

Tax-Qualified Benefit Plans

Territorial Savings Bank 401(k) Plan. We sponsor the Territorial Savings Bank 401(k) Plan, a tax-qualified defined contribution plan, for all employees who have satisfied the plan’s eligibility requirements. Employees may begin deferring their compensation and are eligible to receive matching contributions and profit-sharing contributions as of the first day of the month following the completion of 12 months of employment during which they worked at least 1,000 hours. All contributions are 100% vested.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan. Effective January 1, 2009, Territorial Savings Bank adopted an employee stock ownership plan for eligible employees. Eligible employees who have attained age 21 generally begin participation in the ESOP on the later of the effective date of the ESOP on or after the eligible employee’s completion of 1,000 hours of service during a continuous 12-month period.

The ESOP trustee purchased, on behalf of the ESOP, 978,650 shares of our common stock issued in the offering. The ESOP funded its stock purchase with a loan from us equal to the aggregate purchase price of the common stock. The loan will be repaid principally through Territorial Savings Bank’s contribution to the ESOP and dividends payable on common stock held by the ESOP over the anticipated 20-year term of the loan. The interest rate for the ESOP loan is an adjustable rate equal to the prime rate, as published in The Wall Street Journal, which adjusts annually.

The trustee holds the shares purchased by the ESOP in an unallocated suspense account, and shares will be released from the suspense account on a pro-rata basis as we repay the loan. The trustee will allocate the shares released among participants on the basis of each participant’s proportional share of compensation relative to all participants. Participants become 100% vested upon the completion of three years of service. Participants who were employed by Territorial Savings Bank immediately prior to the offering received credit for vesting purposes for years of service prior to adoption of the

		53

ESOP. Participants also will become fully vested automatically upon normal retirement, death, or disability, a change in control, or termination of the ESOP. Generally, participants will receive distributions from the ESOP upon separation from service. The ESOP reallocates any unvested shares forfeited upon termination of employment among the remaining participants.

The ESOP permits participants to direct the trustee as to how to vote the shares of common stock allocated to their accounts. The trustee votes unallocated shares and allocated shares for which participants do not provide instructions on any matter in the same ratio as those shares for which participants provide instructions, subject to fulfillment of the trustee’s fiduciary responsibilities.

Under applicable accounting requirements, Territorial Savings Bank records compensation expense for the ESOP at the fair market value of the shares as they are committed to be released from the unallocated suspense account to participants’ accounts. The compensation expense resulting from the release of the common stock from the suspense account and allocation to plan participants results in a corresponding reduction in our earnings.

At the time of an Involuntary Termination at or following a Change in Control, all Stock Options then held by the Participant shall become fully earned and exercisable (subject to the expiration provisions otherwise applicable to the Stock Option).

the event such Stock Option is exercised more than three (3) months following such Involuntary Termination. At the time of an Involuntary Termination at or following a Change in Control, all Awards of Restricted Stock shall become fully earned and vested immediately. In the event of a Change in Control, any performance measure attached to an Award under the Plan shall be deemed satisfied at the “target” level as of the date of the Change in Control, unless the data supports and the Committee certifies, that the performance measures have been achieved at a higher level than target as of the effective date of the Change in Control, in which case, the Performance Award will vest at such higher level. To the extent not specified herein or in the Award Agreement, the Committee shall have the discretion to determine the treatment of outstanding unvested Awards, provided, however, that any such Awards will be deemed earned and shall vest if not assumed by a successor entity.”

“8.37 “Involuntary Termination” means the Termination of Service of a Participant by the Company or Subsidiary (other than termination for Cause) or termination of employment by an Employee Participant for Good Reason. A termination of employment by an Employee Participant shall be deemed a termination of employment for “Good Reason” as a result of the Participant’s resignation from the employ of the Company or any Subsidiary upon the occurrence of any of the following events:
