(NASDAQ: DCOM) (the "Company" or "Dime"), the parent company of The Dime Savings Banks of Williamsburgh (the "bank"), today announced the appointment of Kenneth J. Mahon as President and Chief Operating Officer effective immediately upon the retirement of current President Michael P. Devine on December 31, 2015.

Vincent F. Palagiano, Chairman and CEO, commented, "In 2014, the Board appointed Ken Chief Operating Officer, enhancing his corporate responsibilities and placing him as a likely potential successor to the Presidency in the event Mr. Devine contemplated retirement. Ken has more than met the challenge of these new responsibilities, leading our strategic plan to offer premier community banking to our diverse and shifting customer base, enhance our retail banking presence both locally and on the internet, and remain both technologically competitive and cost efficient. Having served on the Board since 2002, the directors are very familiar with his management approach and tireless commitment to success. Our investors have also shared regular interaction with Ken since our initial public offering in 1996, and have come to greatly appreciate his experience, knowledge and candor."
