CITY NATIONAL BANCSHARES CORPORATION

Certificate of Designation Establishing the Series and Fixing the Powers, Designations, Preferences and Relative, Participating, Optional and Other Special Rights, and the Qualifications, Limitations and Restrictions, of the

6% Noncumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series E

There is hereby established a new series of the preferred stock (Preferred Stock) of City National Bancshares Corporation, a New Jersey corporation (Corporation), to which the following powers, designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other special rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions, of the shares of such new series of preferred stock shall apply:

1. Designation; Rank and Number .

The series (this Series) of shares of Preferred Stock shall be designated as 6% Noncumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series E (the Series E Preferred Stock), and each share of Series E Preferred Stock shall have a liquidation preference of $50,000 per share plus $3,000 for the most recently completed Dividend Period to the extent that a dividend was declared (or is otherwise payable pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof) for such Dividend Period but has not been paid as of the date of liquidation, without interest (Liquidation Value).

The Series E Preferred Stock shall rank prior to common stock of all classes (collectively, Common Stock) of the Corporation and to all other classes and series of equity securities of the Corporation now or hereafter authorized, issued or outstanding (the Common Stock and such other classes and series of equity securities of the Corporation are collectively referred to herein as the Junior Stock), other than any class or series of equity securities of the Corporation expressly designated as ranking on a parity with (the Parity Stock) or senior to (the Senior Stock) the Series E Preferred Stock as to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, winding up or dissolution of the Corporation. The Series E Preferred Stock shall be on a parity with all other Series of Preferred Stock of the Corporation, except Senior Stock. The Series E Preferred Stock shall be junior to the creditors of the Corporation, including its depositors. The Series E Preferred Stock shall be subject to the creation of Senior Stock, Parity Stock and Junior Stock to the extent not expressly prohibited by the Charter of the Corporation.

The number of shares of Series E Preferred Stock shall be 200 which number may be increased or decreased from time to time by a vote of not less than a majority of the members of the Board of Directors then in office, provided that no decrease shall reduce the number of shares of Series E Preferred Stock to a number less than the number of shares then outstanding plus the

6

number of shares reserved for issuance upon the exercise of any outstanding options, rights or warrants, if any, to purchase shares of Series E Preferred Stock, or upon the conversion of any outstanding securities issued by the Corporation convertible into shares of Series E Preferred Stock.

2. Dividends .

(a) Payment of Dividends . Holders of shares of Series E Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, if, when and as declared by the Board of Directors, out of funds legally available therefor, noncumulative cash dividends at an annual rate of 6% of the $50,000 liquidation preference per share ($3,000 per share per annum), and no more. Such noncumulative cash dividends shall be payable, if declared, annually on February 28, in each year, or if such day is not a business day, on the next business day (each such date, a Dividend Payment Date). The first Dividend Payment Date shall be February 28, 2005, to the extent a dividend is declared (or is otherwise payable pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof) for the Initial Dividend Period (defined below). Each declared dividend shall be payable to holders of record of the Series E Preferred Stock as they appear on the stock books of the Corporation at the close of business on such record date, not more than forty-five (45) calendar days nor less than ten (10) calendar days preceding the Dividend Payment Date therefor, as determined by the Board of Directors (each such date, a Record Date). Annual dividend periods (each a Dividend Period) shall commence on and include the first day, and shall end on and include the last day, of the calendar year that immediately precedes the calendar year in which the corresponding Dividend Payment Date occurs; provided, however, that the first Dividend Period (the Initial Dividend Period) shall commence on and include the first day upon which a share of Series E Preferred Stock shall be issued and shall end on and include December 31, 2004.

The amount of dividends payable on each share of the Series E Preferred Stock for each full Dividend Period during which such share is outstanding shall be $3,000. The amount of dividends payable for the Initial Dividend Period and for any Dividend Period which, as to a share of Series E Preferred Stock (determined by reference to the issuance date and the redemption or retirement date thereof), is less than a full year shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year composed of twelve (12) thirty (30) day months and the actual number of days elapsed in the Initial Dividend Period or such Dividend Period.

Holders of the Series E Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to any interest, or any sum of money in lieu of interest, in respect of any dividend payment or payments on the Series E Preferred Stock declared by the Board of Directors which may be unpaid. Any dividend payment made on the Series E Preferred Stock shall first be credited against the earliest declared but unpaid cash dividend with respect to the Series E Preferred Stock.

(b) Dividends Noncumulative . The right of holders of Series E Preferred Stock to receive dividends is noncumulative. Accordingly, if the Board of Directors does not declare a dividend payable in respect of any Dividend Period, except to the extent expressly provided otherwise in Sections 4 and 5 hereof with respect to declared but unpaid dividends, holders of shares of Series E Preferred Stock shall have no right to receive a dividend in respect of such Dividend Period, and the Corporation shall have no obligation to pay a dividend in respect of

7

such Dividend Period, whether or not (i) funds are available for the payment of a dividend, or (ii) dividends are declared payable in respect of any future Dividend Period.

(c) Priority as to Dividends . No full dividends shall be declared or paid or set apart for payment on any Parity Stock or Junior Stock for any Dividend Period unless full dividends have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid (or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set apart for such payment) on the Series E Preferred Stock for the current Dividend Period. When dividends are not paid in full (or declared and a sum sufficient for such full payment is not so set apart) for any Dividend Period on the Series E Preferred Stock and any Parity Stock, dividends declared on the Series E Preferred Stock and Parity Stock shall only be declared pro rata based upon the respective amounts that would have been paid on the Series E Preferred Stock and such Parity Stock had dividends been declared in full.

In addition to the foregoing restriction, the Corporation shall not declare, pay or set apart funds for any dividends or other distributions (other than in Common Stock or other Junior Stock) with respect to any Common Stock or other Junior Stock of the Corporation or repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire, or set apart funds for repurchase, redemption or other acquisition of, any Common Stock or other Junior Stock through a sinking fund or otherwise, unless and until the Corporation has declared a cash dividend on the Series E Preferred Stock for the current Dividend Period, and sufficient funds have been paid over to the dividend disbursing agent for the Corporation for the payment of such cash dividend for such current Dividend Period.

No dividend shall be paid or set aside for holders of Series E Preferred Stock for any Dividend Period unless full dividends have been paid or set aside for the holders of each class or series of equity securities of the Corporation, if any, ranking prior to the Series E Preferred Stock as to dividends for such Dividend Period.

(d) Definition of Dividend. Any reference to dividends or distributions in this Section 2 shall not be deemed to include any distribution made in connection with any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Corporation.

3. Optional Conversion

The holders of the Series E Preferred Stock shall have conversion rights as follows (the Conversion Rights):

(a) Right to Convert . Each share of Series E Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time and from time to time, into such number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing $50,000 by the Conversion Price (as defined below) in effect at the time of conversion. The price at which shares of Common Stock shall be deliverable upon conversion of Series E Preferred Stock without the payment of additional consideration by the holder thereof (the Conversion Price) shall initially be $150.15. Such initial Conversion Price for which shares of Series E Preferred Stock may be converted into shares of Common Stock shall be subject to adjustment as provided in this Section 3.

8

In the event of a liquidation of the Corporation, the Conversion Rights shall terminate at the close of business on the first full day preceding the date fixed for the payment of any amounts distributable on liquidation to the holders of Series E Preferred Stock.

(b) Fractional Shares . No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock. In lieu of fractional shares, the Corporation shall pay cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the then effective Conversion Price.

(c) Mechanics of Conversion .

(i) In order to convert shares of Series E Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock, the holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates for such shares of Series E Preferred Stock at the office of the Corporation, together with written notice that such holder elects to convert all or any number of the shares represented by such certificate or certificates. Such notice shall state such holders name or the names of the nominees in which such holder wishes the certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock to be issued. If required by the Corporation, certificates surrendered for conversion shall be endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Corporation, duly executed by the registered holder or his or its attorney duly authorized in writing. The date of receipt of such certificates and notice by the transfer agent or the Corporation shall be the conversion date (Conversion Date). The Corporation shall, as soon as practicable after the Conversion Date, issue and deliver at such office to such holder, or to his nominees, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock to which such holder shall be entitled, together with cash in lieu of any fraction of a share.

(ii) The Corporation shall at all times during which the Series E Preferred Stock shall be outstanding, reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued stock, for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock, such number of its duly authorized shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding Series E Preferred Stock. Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment reducing the Conversion Price below the par value of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock, the Corporation will take any corporation action which may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary in order that the Corporation may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock at such adjusted Conversion Price.

(iii) Upon any such conversion, no adjustment to the Conversion Price shall be made for any declared and unpaid dividends on the Series E Preferred Stock surrendered for conversion or on the Common Stock delivered upon conversion and the holder, by converting, waives his/her right to such declared but unpaid dividends.

(iv) All shares of Series E Preferred Stock, which shall have been surrendered for conversion as herein provided, shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and all rights with respect to such shares, including the rights, if any, to receive dividends,

9

notices and to vote (if any), shall immediately cease and terminate on the Conversion Date, except only the right of the holders thereof to receive shares of Common Stock in exchange therefor. Any shares of Series E Preferred Stock so converted shall be retired and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and the Corporation may from time to time take such appropriate action as may be necessary to reduce the number of shares of authorized Series E Preferred Stock accordingly.

(v) If the conversion is in connection with an underwritten offer of securities registered pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the conversion may, at the option of any holder tendering Series E Preferred Stock for conversion, be conditioned upon the closing with the underwriter of the sale of securities pursuant to such offering, in which event the person(s) entitled to receive the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock shall not be deemed to have converted such Series E Preferred Stock until immediately prior to the closing of the sale of securities.

(d) Adjustment for Stock Splits and Combinations . If the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the date on which the first share of Series E Preferred Stock is first issued (the Original Issue Date) effect a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock, the Conversion Price then in effect immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately decreased. If the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date combine the outstanding shares of Common stock, the Conversion Price then in effect immediately before the combination shall be proportionately increased. Any adjustment under this paragraph shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

(e) Adjustment for Certain Dividends and Distributions . In the event the Corporation at any time, or from time to time after the Original Issue Date, shall make or issue a dividend or other distribution on or with respect to the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, then in each such event the Conversion Price shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance by multiplying the Conversion Price by a fraction:

the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance, and

the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution.

(f) Adjustments for Other Dividends and Distributions . In the event the Corporation at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date shall make or issue a dividend or other distribution on or with respect to the Common Stock payable in securities of the Corporation other than shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event provision shall be made so that the holders of shares of the Series E Preferred Stock shall receive upon conversion thereof in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable thereupon, the amount of securities of the Corporation that they would have received had their Series E Preferred Stock been converted into Common Stock on the date of such event and had thereafter, during the

10

period from the date of such event to and including the Conversion Date, retained such securities receivable by them as aforesaid during such period given application to all adjustments called for during such period under this paragraph with respect to the rights of the holders of the Series E Preferred Stock.

prior to such reorganization, reclassification, or change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.

forth in this Section 3 (including provisions with respect to changes in and other adjustments of the Conversion Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares of stock or other property thereafter deliverable upon the conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock.

(i) No Impairment . The Corporation will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Corporation, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 3 and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the Conversion Rights of the holders of the Series E Preferred Stock against impairment.

4. Redemption

(a) General . The shares of Series E Preferred Stock are not subject to mandatory redemption by the holders thereof, and, except as hereinafter provided in Section 3(b) below, are not subject to redemption prior to December 31, 2008. On or after January 1, 2009, shares of Series E Preferred Stock may be redeemed by the Corporation or its successor or any acquiring or resulting entity with respect to the Corporation (including by any parent or subsidiary of the Corporation, any such successor, or any such acquiring or resulting entity), as applicable, at its

11

option, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, upon notice as provided in subsection (c) of this Section 4, by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Corporation or its successor or any acquiring or resulting entity with respect to the Corporation (including by any parent or subsidiary of the Corporation, any such successor, or any such acquiring or resulting entity), as applicable, at a per share redemption price, payable in cash, of $50,000 plus, $3,000 for the most recently completed Dividend Period to the extent that a dividend was declared for such Dividend Period on the Series E Preferred Stock but has not been paid as of the date of redemption without interest (the Redemption Price).

If less than all of the outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock are to be redeemed, the Corporation will select those shares to be redeemed pro rata, by lot or such other methods as the Board of Directors in its sole discretion determines to be equitable. If redemption is being affected by the Corporation, on and after the redemption date, dividends shall cease to accrue on the shares of Series E Preferred Stock called for redemption, and they shall be deemed to cease to be outstanding, provided that the redemption price (including any declared but unpaid dividends to the date fixed for redemption) has been duly paid or provided for. If redemption is being effected by an entity other than the Corporation, on and as of the redemption date such entity shall be deemed to own the shares being redeemed for all purposes hereof provided that the redemption price (including the amount of any de but unpaid dividends to the date fixed for redemption) has been duly paid or provided for.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no shares of the Series E Preferred Stock may be redeemed unless such redemption has received the prior consent of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Federal Reserve), to the extent the Series E Preferred Stock is treated as Tier I capital for regulatory capital purposes, or such consent is otherwise required by applicable regulations of the Federal Reserve.

(b) Change of Control/Significant Public Offering . In addition to the redemption provisions of subsection (a) above and not in lieu of or in substitution therefor, in the event of a Change of Control or a Significant Public Offering, the Series E Preferred Stock shall be redeemable at the option of the Corporation or its successor or any acquiring or resulting entity with respect to the Corporation (including by any parent or subsidiary of the Corporation, any such successor, or any such acquiring or resulting entity), as applicable, in whole but not in part. Redemption of the Series E Preferred Stock pursuant to this subsection (b) shall be effected by notice as provided in subsection (c) of this Section 4, by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Corporation or its successor or any acquiring or resulting entity with respect to the Corporation (including by any parent or subsidiary of the Corporation, any such successor, or any such acquiring or resulting entity), as applicable, at the liquidation value per share in cash, plus, in each case, an amount in cash equal to all declared and unpaid dividends.

Change of Control means (a) a sale of all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Corporation (other than a reorganization transaction in which such properties and assets are transferred to a subsidiary of the Corporation), (b) a reorganization, merger, consolidation or other transaction or transactions (whether or not the Corporation is a party thereto and specifically including, without limitation, open market purchases of securities) as a result of which any person or entity or group of persons and/or entities becomes the beneficial owner

12

(as those terms are defined in and construed by judicial authority under Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as that Rule may be amended from time to time) of securities representing at least 50% of the ordinary voting power of the Corporation in the election of directors, (c) any event as a result of which City National Bank of New Jersey (the Bank) ceases to be owned and controlled by the Corporation or (d) all or substantially all the assets of the Bank are transferred to a party which is not an affiliate of the Corporation or the Bank.

Significant Public Offering means an underwritten public offering of the Corporations equity securities from which the Corporation is expected to receive in excess of $4,000,000 and in connection with which one or more of the underwriters of such offering have advised the Corporation that as a condition precedent to such offering the Series E Preferred Stock must be redeemed.

(c) Notice of Redemption . Notice of any redemption, setting forth (i) the date and place fixed for said redemption, and (ii) the redemption price, shall be mailed, postage prepaid, at least thirty (30) days, but not more than sixty (60) days, prior to said redemption date to each holder of record of Series E Preferred Stock to be redeemed at his or her address as the same shall appear on the stock books of the Corporation. If less than all of the shares of Series E Preferred Stock owned by such holder are then to be redeemed, such notice shall specify the number of shares thereof that are to be redeemed and the numbers of the certificates representing such shares. Notice of any redemption shall be given by first class mail, postage prepaid. Neither failure to mail such notice, nor any defect therein or in the mailing thereof, to any particular holder shall affect the sufficiency of the notice or the validity of the proceedings for redemption with respect to the other holders. Any notice which was mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given whether or not the holder receives such notice.

If such notice of redemption shall have been so mailed, and if, on or before the redemption date specified in such notice, all funds necessary for such redemption shall have been set aside by the Corporation (or other entity as provided in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 4) separate and apart from its other funds in trust for the account of the holders of shares of Series E Preferred Stock to be redeemed (so as to be and continue to be available therefor), then, on and after said redemption date, notwithstanding that any certificate for shares of Series E Preferred Stock so called for redemption shall not have been surrendered for cancellation or transfer, the shares of Series E Preferred Stock (A) so called for redemption by the Corporation shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding and all rights with respect to such shares of Series E Preferred Stock so called for redemption shall forthwith cease and terminate, or (B) so called for redemption by an entity other than the Corporation shall be deemed owned for all purposes hereof by such entity, except in each case for the right of the holders thereof to receive, out of the funds so set aside in trust, the amount payable on redemption thereof, but without interest, upon surrender (and endorsement or assignment for transfer, if required by the Corporation or such other entity) of their certificates.

In the event that holders of shares of Series E Preferred Stock that shall have been redeemed shall not within two (2) years (or any longer period if required by law) after the redemption date claim any amount deposited in trust with a Corporation or trust company for the

13

redemption of such shares, such Corporation or trust company shall, upon demand and if permitted by applicable law, pay over to the Corporation (or other entity that redeemed the shares) any such unclaimed amount so deposited with it, and shall thereupon be relieved of all responsibility in respect thereof, and thereafter the holders of such shares shall, subject to applicable escheat laws, look only to the Corporation (or other entity that redeemed the shares) for payment of the redemption price thereof, but without interest from the date of redemption.

(d) Status of Shares Redeemed . Shares of Series E Preferred Stock redeemed, purchased or otherwise acquired for value by the Corporation shall, after such acquisition, have the status of authorized and unissued shares of Preferred Stock and may be reissued by the Corporation at any time as shares of any series of Preferred Stock other than as shares of Series E Preferred Stock.

5. Liquidation Preference .

(a) Liquidation Distributions . In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, the holders of shares of Series E Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive for each share thereof, out of the assets of the Corporation legally available for distribution to shareholders under applicable law, or the proceeds thereof, before any payment or distribution of the assets shall be made to holders of shares of Common Stock or any other Junior Stock (subject to the rights of the holders of any class or series of equity securities having preference with respect to distributions upon liquidation and the Corporations general creditors, including its depositors), liquidating distributions in the amount of the Liquidation Value.

If the amounts available for distribution in respect of shares of Series E Preferred Stock and any outstanding Parity Stock are not sufficient to satisfy the full liquidation rights of all of the outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock and such Parity Stock, then the holders of such outstanding shares shall share ratably in any such distribution of assets in proportion to the full respective preferential amounts to which they are entitled. After payment of the full amount of the liquidating distribution to which they are entitled, holders of shares of Series E Preferred Stock will not be entitled to any further participation in any liquidating distribution of assets by the Corporation. All distributions made in respect of Series E Preferred Stock in connection with such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation shall be made pro rata to the holders entitled thereto.

(b) Consolidation, Merger or Certain Other Actions . Neither the consolidation, merger or other business combination of the Corporation with or into any other person, nor the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation, shall be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation for purposes of this Section 5.

6. Voting Rights; Amendment .

Except as provided in this Section 6, holders of shares of Series E Preferred Stock shall have no voting rights. Any amendment, alteration or repeal of the rights, preferences and privileges of the Series E Preferred Stock by way of amendment of the Corporations certificate

14

of incorporation whether by merger or otherwise, which would materially and adversely affect the powers, preferences or special rights of the Series E Preferred Stock shall not be effective (unless otherwise required by applicable law) except with the consent in writing of the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding aggregate Liquidation Value of the outstanding shares of the Series E Preferred Stock. No vote of the holders of the Series E Preferred Stock will be required for the Corporation (or another entity as provided in Section 4 hereof) to redeem or purchase and cancel the Series E Preferred Stock.

7. No Sinking Fund .

No sinking fund shall be established for the retirement or redemption of shares of Series E Preferred Stock.

8. Preemptive or Subscription Rights .

No holder of shares of Series E Preferred Stock shall have any preemptive or subscription rights in respect of any shares of the Corporation that may be issued.

9. The Transferability of the Series E Preferred Stock .

Unless otherwise expressly consented to by the Corporation, (with such consent to be provided upon proof satisfactory to the Corporation that all applicable laws relating to such transfer have been complied with), no shares of the Series E Preferred Stock or any interest therein, may directly or indirectly be sold, mortgaged, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of.

10. No Other Rights .

The shares of Series E Preferred Stock shall not have any designations, preferences or relative, participating, optional or other special rights except as set forth herein, or as otherwise required by law.

11. Compliance with Applicable Law .

Declaration by the Board of Directors and payment by the Corporation of dividends to holders of the Series E Preferred Stock and repurchase, redemption or other acquisition by the Corporation (or another entity as provided in Section 4 hereof) of shares of Series E Preferred Stock shall be subject in all respects to any and all restrictions and limitations placed on dividends, redemptions or other distributions by the Corporation (or any such other entity) under (i) laws, regulations and regulatory conditions or limitations applicable to or regarding the Corporation (or any such other entity) from time to time and (ii) agreements with federal banking authorities with respect to the Corporation (or any such other entity) from time to time in effect.
