ITEM5.02(e):

Material Compensatory Plan

At a meeting of the board of directors of The Middlefield Banking

Company held on March13, 2017, the nonemployee directors took a

number of actions affecting officer compensation, including

determining the compensation of President and Chief Executive

Officer Thomas G. Caldwell, Executive Vice President and Chief

Operating Officer James R. Heslop, II, and Senior Vice President,

Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer Donald L. Stacy. Base

salary in 2017 for Mr.Caldwell will be $291,572 (an increase of

$11,214), for Mr.Heslop $225,178 (an increase of $8,661), and for

Mr.Stacy $179,113 (an increase of $6,889). None of these officers

is a party to an employment agreement.

At the same meeting of the board of directors, the nonemployee

directors ratified and adopted the recommendation of the

Compensation Committee that the Companys Annual Incentive Plan be

continued for 2017. Included in the action was the establishment

of award levels under the Banks Annual Incentive Plan for

executive officers, including Chief Executive Officer Thomas G.

Caldwell, Chief Operating Officer James R. Heslop, II, and Chief

Financial Officer Donald L. Stacy.

The Annual Incentive Plan is a short-term cash incentive plan

that rewards bank employees with additional cash compensation if

specified objectives are achieved. For achievement of the 2017

plan performance goals, distributions under the plan would be

made in cash to the executives in the first quarter of 2018. For

2017 the bank-wide performance measures have to do with net

income, classified loans (that is, reduction of classified loans

as a percentage of the sum of Tier 1 capital and the allowance

for loan and lease losses), growth in total loans, and a fourth

goal having to do with the banks regulatory status. For this

purpose the banks regulatory status means the banks exposure to

serious regulatory criticism of banking practices or

vulnerability to other adverse regulatory conditions, such as

formal or informal enforcement actions or inability to obtain

approval of regulatory applications. Regulatory status is a

subjective judgement made by the compensation committee. The

Annual Incentive Plan may be terminated by the board of directors

at any time.

The precise 2017 performance goals, which are considered

confidential, have not yet been established for certain executive

officers, including Messrs. Caldwell, Heslop, and Stacy.
