    All of the directors of Ohio Valley Banc Corp. (“Ohio Valley”) also serve as directors of its subsidiary, The Ohio Valley Bank
        Company (the “Bank”).  The directors of Ohio Valley are paid by the Bank for their services rendered as directors of the Bank, not Ohio Valley.  Each director of the Bank who is not an employee of Ohio Valley or any of its subsidiaries (a
        “Non-Employee Director”) receives $750 per month for his or her services.  Each director of the Bank who is an employee of Ohio Valley or any of its subsidiaries (an “Employee Director”) receives $350 per month for his or her services.  In
        addition, each director of the Bank receives an annual retainer of $17,000 paid in January or February of each year for services to be rendered during the year, pro-rated for time served for new or retiring members.

        

      

    Each Non-Employee Director who is a member of the Executive Committee of the Bank receives $2,000 per month for his or her
        services.  In addition, each Non-Employee Director who is a member of the Executive Committee receives an annual retainer of $16,695 paid in January or February of each year for services to be rendered during the year as members of that committee,
        pro-rated for time served for new or retiring members.  Employee Directors receive no additional compensation for serving on the Executive Committee.

     

      

    Brent A. Saunders, LPA received retainer fees of $21,000 for legal services to the Company and its subsidiaries during 2018, as
        approved by the Board of Directors in December 2017.  In December 2018, the Board of Directors of Ohio Valley approved the payment to Mr. Saunders of $21,000 in retainer fees for legal services to the Company and its subsidiaries during 2019.

     

      

    The Bank maintains a life insurance policy for each director with a death benefit of two times annual director fees at time of
        death, reduced by 35% at age 65 and 50% at age 70, as part of the Bank’s group term life insurance program.  The life insurance policies terminate upon retirement.  Messrs. Smith and Wiseman, as employees of the Bank, are excluded from this benefit
        under the terms of the Bank’s group term life insurance program.  Each director is entitled to retirement and deferred compensation agreements, and the Bank has executed agreements with all such persons, except that Mr. Jones has elected not to
        participate in the deferred compensation plan.  These documents are filed as exhibits to various documents filed by Ohio Valley with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as set forth in the Exhibit Index to Ohio Valley’s Annual Report on Form
        10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018.
