Item 5.04 Temporary Suspension of Trading Under Registrant’s Employee Benefit Plans.
 
On March 28, 2014, Prudential Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) distributed a notice to participants in the Prudential Savings Bank Employees’ Savings & Profit Sharing Plan and Trust (the “401(k) Plan”) notifying participants that, effective April 28, 2014, there would be a change in the mix of funds offered to participants in the 401(k) plan.  The notice indicated that fund swaps are scheduled to begin on April 28th and that, due to the number of plans involved in this fund swap, there will be a blackout period beginning on April 28, 2014 and which is expected to end during the week of May 5, 2014 (the “Blackout Period”). During the Blackout Period, participants in the 401(k) Plan will temporarily be unable to make changes or effect transactions within their account, including redirecting investment allocations or requesting withdrawals or distributions of any type from the 401(k) plan.

In connection with the foregoing, on March 28, 2014, the Company sent a notice to its executive officers and its directors pursuant to Section 306 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and Rule 104 of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Regulation BTR. A copy of the notice is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference thereto.
