MIDDLEFIELD BANC CORP.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

**NOTE *1* - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES**

**Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation**

The consolidated financial statements of Middlefield Banc Corp. ("Company") include its bank subsidiary, The Middlefield Banking Company ("MBC" or "Bank"), and a nonbank asset resolution subsidiary EMORECO, Inc. The consolidated financial statements also include the accounts of MBC's subsidiaries, Middlefield Investments, Inc. ("MI") and MB Insurance Services ("MIS"). All significant inter-company items have been eliminated. On *March 13, 2019,* MBC established MI as an operating subsidiary to hold and manage an investment portfolio. On *June 30, 2025*, MI's assets consist of a cash account, available-for-sale investment securities, and related accrued interest accounts. MI *may* only hold and manage investments and *may not* engage in any other activity without prior approval of the Ohio Division of Financial Institutions. In the *first* quarter of *2022,* MBC established MIS as an operating subsidiary to offer retail and business customers various insurance services, including home, renters, automobile, pet, identity theft, travel, and professional liability insurance. On *June 30, 2025*, MIS assets consist of a cash account, a prepaid asset, and an accounts receivable. As a result of the bank merger of Liberty National Bank and MBC on *December 1, 2022,* Middlefield Banc Corp. acquired a 100% ownership interest in LBSI Insurance, LLC ("LBSI"), a wholly owned financial subsidiary of Liberty National Bank. LBSI did *not* operate after the merger, and its existence ended *January 19, 2024.* All significant intercompany items have been eliminated between MBC and these subsidiaries.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the instructions to Form *10*-Q and Article *10* of Regulation SX. Accordingly, they do *not* include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for complete financial statements. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Form *10*-K for the year ended *December 31, 2024*. The interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring items) that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods disclosed herein are *not* necessarily indicative of the results that *may* be expected for a full year.

**Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in *2025***

*None*

**Recent Accounting Pronouncements**

In *December 2023,* the FASB issued ASU *2023*-*09,* Income Taxes (Topic *740*): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The amendments require entities to disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and provide additional information for material reconciling items. The ASU also requires the disclosure of income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after *December 15, 2024.* This ASU is *not* expected to have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.

In *November 2024,* the FASB issued ASU *2024*-*03,* Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic *220*- *40*): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The guidance requires public companies to disclose additional information about certain types of costs and expenses in the footnotes. The amendment should be applied on a prospective or retrospective basis. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after *December 15, 2026,* and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after *December 15, 2027.* The effective date was clarified in ASU *2025*-*01,* Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic *220*-*40*): Clarifying the Effective Date, which was issued in *January 2025.* These ASUs are *not* expected to have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.

**NOTE *2*** – **REVENUE RECOGNITION**

Following ASC Topic *606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic *606*)*, management determined that the primary sources of revenue, which emanate from interest income on loans and investments, along with noninterest revenue resulting from equity security gains (losses), gains on the sale of loans, rental income, and BOLI income, are *not* within the scope of ASC *606.* For the *six* months ended *June 30, 2025*, these revenue sources cumulatively comprise 94.7% of the total revenue of the Company.

The main types of noninterest income within the scope of the standard are as follows:

<u>Service charges on deposit accounts</u> – The Company has contracts with its deposit customers whereby fees are charged if the account balance falls below predetermined levels defined as compensating balances. These agreements can be canceled at any time by either the Company or the deposit customer. Revenue from these transactions is recognized monthly as the Company has an unconditional right to the fee consideration. The Company also has transaction fees related to specific customer requests or activities that include overdraft fees, online banking fees, and other transaction fees. All of these fees are attributable to specific performance obligations of the Company where the revenue is recognized at a defined point in time, which is the completion of the requested service/transaction.

<u>Revenue from investment services</u> – The Company earns investment services revenue through its referral agreement with LPL Financial. The performance obligation to investment management customers is satisfied over time, and therefore, revenue is recognized over time. The Company generally receives trailing investment services revenue in arrears and recognizes the revenue when the monthly statement with referral revenue is received.

<u>Miscellaneous fee income</u> – Fees earned on other services, such as ATM surcharge fees, money order fees, and check fees, are recognized at the time of the event or the applicable billing cycle.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; *9*

**NOTE *3* - EARNINGS PER SHARE**

The Company provides a dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the average shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share adds the dilutive effects of restricted stock to average shares outstanding.

The following table sets forth the composition of the weighted-average common shares (denominator) used in the basic and diluted earnings per share computation for the *three* and *six* months ended *June 30, 2025* and *2024*:

| Weighted-average common shares and common stock equivalents used to calculate diluted earnings per share | 8113572 | 8072499 | 8107066 | 8084529 |

---

At *June 30, 2025* and *2024*, there were 52,181 and 33,001 anti-dilutive shares, respectively, excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share related to restricted stock awards.

**NOTE *5* - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS** 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for an asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation methodologies into the following levels:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Level I: | Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date. |

---

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Level II: | Pricing inputs are other than the quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The nature of these assets and liabilities includes items for which quoted prices are available but traded less frequently and items that are valued using other financial instruments, the parameters of which can be directly observed. |

---

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Level III: | Assets and liabilities that have little to *no* pricing observability as of the reported date. These items do *not* have *two*-way markets and are measured using management's best estimate of fair value, where the inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; *11*

------

[**Table of Contents**](#toc)

This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available.

The following tables present the assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis on the Consolidated Balance Sheet by level within the fair value hierarchy. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

<u>Investment Securities Available for Sale</u> - An independent pricing service provides the Company fair values determined by pricing models using a market approach that considers observable market data, such as interest rate volatilities, benchmarked yield curve, credit spreads and prices from market makers and live trading systems (Level II). Level III securities are assets whose fair value cannot be determined by using observable measures. The inputs to the valuation methodology of these securities are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. Currently, this category includes certain subordinated debt investments that are valued based on the discounted cash flow approach assuming a yield curve of similarly structured instruments.

While the Company believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of specific financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date. Management uses its best judgment in estimating the fair value of the Company's financial instruments; however, there are inherent weaknesses in any estimation technique. Therefore, for substantially all financial instruments, the fair value estimates herein are *not* necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could have realized in a sales transaction on the dates indicated. The estimated fair value amounts have been measured as of their respective period-ends and have *not* been re-evaluated or updated for purposes of these financial statements subsequent to those respective dates. As such, the estimated fair values of these financial instruments following the respective reporting dates *may* be different from the amounts reported at each period-end.

<u>Equity Securities</u> - Equity securities that are traded on a national securities exchange are valued at their last reported sales price as of the measurement date. Equity securities traded in the over-the-counter ("OTC") markets and listed securities for which *no* sale was reported on that date are generally valued at their last reported "bid" price if held long, and last reported "ask" price if sold short. To the extent equity securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are *not* applied, they are categorized in Level I of the fair value hierarchy.

The following table presents the fair value reconciliation of Level III assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | *Subordinated debt* | *Subordinated debt* |
| (Dollar amounts in thousands) | *June 30, 2025* | *December 31, 2024* |
| Beginning of year | $6639 | $8801 |
| Transfers out of Level III <sup>(1)</sup> |  | (2250) |
| Net change in unrealized loss on investment securities available-for-sale | 20 | 88 |
| End of year | $6659 | $6639 |

---

(*1*) Transfers between hierarchy levels are based on the availability of sufficient observable inputs to meet Level II versus Level III criteria. The level designation of each financial instrument is reassessed at the end of each period.

---

<u>Premises and Equipment Held for Sale</u> - Premises and equipment held for sale consist of a branch location held for sale. The Company has measured impairment on branch locations held for sale based on the fair value of the property. Fair value is based on the listed selling price, which is predominately determined using market transactions for similar properties. In some cases, management *may* adjust the sales price due to changes in market conditions, length of time that the property has been on the market, or other factors that a market participant *may* take into account when valuing the property. Additionally, management estimates expected costs to sell the property. If the fair value of the premises and equipment held for sale is less than the carrying amount, a charge is taken to reduce the property to its fair value (less estimated selling costs), and the property is included in the above table as a Level III measurement in the period in which the adjustment is recorded. If the fair value of the property exceeds the carrying amount, then the property is *not* included in the above table as it is *not* currently being carried at its fair value. The fair values in the preceding tables include selling costs of $72,000 for *June 30, 2025.*

<u>Collateral-Dependent Loans</u> – The Company has measured impairment on collateral-dependent individually analyzed loans generally based on the fair value of the loan's collateral. Fair value is generally determined based on independent *third*-party appraisals of the properties. In some cases, management *may* adjust the appraised value due to the age of the appraisal, changes in market conditions, or observable deterioration of the property since the appraisal was completed. Additionally, management makes estimates about expected costs to sell the property, which are also included in the net realizable value. If the fair value of the collateral-dependent loan is less than the carrying amount of the loan, a specific reserve for the loan is made in the allowance for credit losses, or a charge-off is taken to reduce the loan to the fair value of the collateral (less estimated selling costs), and the loan is included in the above table as a Level III measurement in the period in which the adjustment is recorded. If the fair value of the collateral exceeds the carrying amount of the loan, then the loan is *not* included in the above table as it is *not* currently being carried at its fair value. The fair values in the preceding tables include selling costs of $968,000 for *December 31, 2024*.

The following table presents additional quantitative information about assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis and for which the Company uses Level III inputs to determine fair value:

Included within other borrowings is an $8.2 million note payable, which matures in *December 2037.* These borrowings were used to form a special purpose entity to issue $8.0 million of floating rate, obligated mandatorily redeemable securities. The rate adjusts quarterly, equal to SOFR plus 1.67%. The borrowing is a floating rate instrument, and any difference between the cost and fair value is insignificant.

In addition to the financial instruments included in the above tables, cash and cash equivalents, bank-owned life insurance, Federal Home Loan Bank (the "FHLB") stock, other investments, accrued interest receivable, FHLB advances, finance lease liabilities, and accrued interest payable, are carried at cost, which approximates the fair value of the instruments.

Every quarter, the Company evaluates investment securities with unrealized losses to determine if the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors. There were 24 securities in an unrealized loss position for less than *twelve* months and 174 securities in an unrealized loss position for *twelve* months or greater on *June 30, 2025*. Unrealized losses on investment securities available for sale have *not* been recognized into income because we do *not* intend to sell and it is more likely than *not* that we will *not* be required to sell any of the securities in an unrealized loss position before recovery of their amortized cost. The unrealized losses on investment securities were attributable to changes in interest rates and *not* related to the credit quality of these issuers. As of *June 30, 2025* and *December 31, 2024*, *no* ACL was required on investment securities available for sale.

Other investments, which primarily represent equity securities, totaled $1.0 million and $855,000 at *June 30, 2025* and *December 31, 2024*, respectively. The Company recognized a loss on other investments of $7,000 and $27,000 for the *three* months ended *June 30, 2025,* and *2024,* respectively. The Company recognized a loss on other investments of $41,000 and $79,000 for the *six* months ended *June 30, 2025,* and *2024*, respectively.

**<u>Allowance for Credit Losses: Loans</u>**

The methodology for calculating the allowance for credit losses considers the possibility of expected loss over the life of the loan. It also considers historical loss rates and other qualitative adjustments, as well as a new forward-looking component that considers reasonable and supportable forecasts over the expected life of each loan. To develop the ACL estimate under the current expected loss model, the Company segments the loan portfolio into loan pools based on loan type and similar credit risk elements. An ACL is maintained to absorb losses from the loan portfolio. The ACL is based on management's continuing evaluation of the risk characteristics and credit quality of the loan portfolio, assessment of current economic conditions, diversification and size of the portfolio, adequacy of collateral, past and anticipated loss experience, and the amount of nonperforming loans. Refer to Note *1* – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies under the heading "Allowance for Credit Losses - Loans" of our *2024* Form *10*-K for additional information on the Bank's methodology for estimating the ACL.

Management reviews the loan portfolio quarterly using a defined, consistently applied process to make appropriate and timely adjustments to the ACL. When information confirms all or part of specific loans to be uncollectible, these amounts are promptly charged off against the ACL.

The following tables summarize the ACL within the primary segments of the loan portfolio and the activity within those segments:

The total ACL decreased by $112,000, or 0.5%, from *December 31, 2024* to *June 30, 2025*. The decrease was driven by portfolio activity, updated assumptions, and the economic outlook. For *2024* and *2025,* the Bank utilized unemployment rate data from Federal Open Market Committee ("FOMC") within the model to forecast credit losses in the portfolio. The FOMC Summary of Economic Projections for the Civilian Unemployment Rate – Central Tendency – High used in the *June, 2025* calculation projects a slight increase in the unemployment rate from the prior quarter. The prepayment rates, probability of default ("PD"), and loss given default ("LGD") assumptions were updated with the *March 31, 2025* calculation in accordance with our policy to refresh assumptions on an annual basis. Prepayment rate assumptions are based on Bank data, while PD and LGD assumptions are determined using peer benchmark data. To the extent that credit risk is *not* fully identified within the forecasts and calculated reserve, management has made qualitative adjustments to the ACL balance.

The fluctuation in the ACL during the *six* months ended *June 30, 2025,* can be attributed to the following along with general increases and decreases in outstanding loan balances:

• Decrease in ACL for non-owner occupied CRE loans is due to (*1*) a decrease in PDs and LGDs based on using Bank data for the *first 12* months of the forecast and reverting to peer benchmark data for the remainder of the forecast and (*2*) a decrease in the maximum loss rate used in the qualitative adjustment, partially offset by (*1*) a decrease in prepayment rates and (*2*) an increase in the qualitative adjustment to adjust for a change in the Credit team. In addition, there was a decrease of $7.3 million in the non-owner occupied loan segment balance. 

• Increase in ACL for construction and other loans is due to (*1*) the impact of a decrease in prepayment rates and an increase in PDs and LGDs causing an increase in the calculated reserve and (*2*) an increase in the qualitative adjustment to adjust for a change in the Credit team. In addition, there was an increase of $19.9 million in the construction and other loan segment balance.

• Increase in ACL for commercial and industrial loans is due to (*1*) the impact of a decrease in prepayment rates and (*2*) an increase in the qualitative adjustment to adjust for a change in the Credit team. Additionally, there was an increase of $28.5 million in the commercial and industrial loan segment balance.

• Increase in ACL for residential real estate loans is due to a decrease in prepayment rates, partially offset by a decrease in PDs and LGDs in the calculation reserve.

**<u>Credit Quality Indicators</u>**

Management evaluates individual loans in all of the commercial segments for possible impairment based on guidelines established by the Board of Directors. Loans are individually analyzed when, based on current information and events, the Company will probably be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in evaluating credit loss include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower's prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall concerning the principal and interest owed. The evaluation of the need and amount of a specific allocation of the allowance and whether a loan can be removed from impairment status is made quarterly.

Management uses a *nine*-point internal risk-rating system to monitor the credit quality of the overall loan portfolio. The *first five* categories are considered *not* criticized and are aggregated as Pass rated. The criticized rating categories utilized by management generally follow bank regulatory definitions. The Special Mention category includes assets that are currently protected but have potential weaknesses, resulting in undue and unwarranted credit risk, but *not* to the point of justifying a Substandard classification. Loans in the Substandard category have well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt and have a distinct possibility that some loss will be sustained if the weaknesses are *not* corrected. All loans greater than *90* days past due are considered Substandard. A loan categorized as Doubtful contains all of the weaknesses as a Substandard loan with the added characteristic that the weaknesses are so pronounced that the collection or liquidation in full of both principal and interest is highly questionable or improbable. Any portion of a loan that has been charged off is placed in the Loss category.

To help ensure that risk ratings are accurate and reflect the present and future capacity of borrowers to repay a loan as agreed, the Company has a structured loan rating process with several layers of internal and external oversight. Generally, consumer and residential mortgage loans are included in the Pass categories unless a specific action, such as payment delinquency, bankruptcy, repossession, or death, occurs to raise awareness of a possible credit quality loss. The Company's Commercial Loan Officers are responsible for the timely and accurate risk rating of the loans in their portfolios at origination and on an ongoing basis. The Credit Department performs an annual review of all commercial relationships with loan balances of $750,000 or greater. Detailed reviews, including plans for resolution, are performed on criticized loans of $150,000 or more on at least a quarterly basis. Loans in the Special Mention and Substandard categories that are collectively evaluated for impairment are given separate consideration in the determination of the allowance.

Management further monitors the performance and credit quality of the loan portfolio by analyzing the age of the portfolio as determined by the length of time a recorded payment is past due.

There were *no* loans modified to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the *three* or *six* months ended *June 30, 2024.* 

As of *June 30, 2025*, the Bank had a commitment to lend additional funds to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty whose loan was modified of $628,000. There were *no* such commitments as of *June 30, 2024.* During the *three* and *six* months ended *June 30, 2025,* and *2024,* the Bank did *not* have any loans that were modified for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty and subsequently defaulted. Payment default is defined as movement to nonperforming status, foreclosure or charge-off, whichever occurs first. As of *June 30, 2025,* there were nonaccrual loans totaling $12.0 million that were modified for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the *12* months then ended. As of *June 30, 2024,* there were no nonaccrual loans that were modified for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the *12* months then ended.

**<u>Allowance for Credit Losses: Unfunded Commitments</u>**

The Company records a separate ACL for unfunded commitments using a methodology that is inherently similar to the methodology used for calculating the ACL for loans. The liability for credit losses on these exposures is $1.5 million and $1.6 million as of *June 30, 2025* and *December 31, 2024*, respectively, and included in "accrued interest payable and other liabilities" on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The provision for or recovery of credit loss associated with the liability for unfunded commitments amounted to a recovery of credit losses of $422,000 and $72,000 for the *three* and *six* months ended *June 30, 2025*, respectively, and a recovery of credit losses of $610,000 and $54,000 for the *three* and *six* months ended *June 30, 2024,* respectively.

**NOTE *8*** – **COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES**

In the ordinary course of business, various outstanding commitments and certain contingent liabilities are *not* reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. These commitments and contingent liabilities represent financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk. The contract or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement in particular types of financial instruments.

**<u>Commitments to Extend Credit</u>** 

The following table summarizes the commitments to extend credit, which were composed of the following:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| (Dollar amounts in thousands) | *June 30, 2025* | *December 31, 2024* |
| Commitments to extend credit | $438074 | $468006 |
| Standby letters of credit | 561 | 798 |
| Total | $438635 | $468804 |

---

The commitments to extend credit involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk over the amount recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company's exposure to credit loss, in the event of nonperformance by the other parties to the financial instruments, is represented by the contractual amounts as disclosed. The Company minimizes its exposure to credit loss under these commitments by subjecting them to credit approval, review procedures, and collateral requirements as deemed necessary. Loan commitments generally have fixed expiration dates within *one* year of their origination.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a *third* party. These instruments are issued primarily to support bid or performance-related contracts. The coverage period for these instruments is typically *one* year, with an annual renewal option subject to prior approval by management. Fees earned from the issuance of these letters are recognized over the coverage period. The collateral is typically bank deposit instruments or customer business assets for secured letters of credit.

<u>**Commitments to Fund**</u>

We have investments in low-income housing tax credit operating partnerships. As a limited partner, we are allocated tax credits and deductions associated with the underlying properties. Our maximum exposure to loss in connection with the partnerships consists of the unamortized investment balance plus any unfunded equity commitments and tax credits claimed but subject to recapture. The investments at *June 30, 2025* are $3.7 million and *December 31, 2024* were $1.8 million, and recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet in "accrued interest receivable and other assets". We do *not* have any loss reserves recorded since we believe the likelihood of loss is remote. The investments are amortized over the period that we expect to receive the tax benefits using the proportional amortization method. For the *six* months ended *June 30, 2025* and *2024*, we recognized $94,000 and $42,000, respectively, of amortization. At *June 30, 2025* and *December 31, 2024*, we had an unfunded tax credit commitment of $3.0 million and $1.5 million, respectively, which is recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet in "accrued interest payable and other liabilities".

<u>**Cannabis Industry**</u>

We provide deposit services to customers who are licensed by the State of Ohio's Division of Cannabis Control to do business as (or are related to) growers, processors, and dispensaries. Marijuana businesses are regulated by the Ohio Department of Commerce and legal in the State of Ohio, although it is *not* legal at the federal level. The U.S. Department of the Treasury's Financial Crimes Enforcement Network ("FinCEN") published guidelines in *2014* for financial institutions servicing state-legal cannabis businesses. A financial institution that provides services to cannabis-related businesses can comply with Bank Secrecy Act ("BSA") disclosure standards by following the FinCEN guidelines. We maintain stringent written policies and procedures related to the acceptance of such businesses and the monitoring and maintenance of such business accounts. We conduct a significant due diligence review of the cannabis business before the business is accepted as a new client, including confirmation that the business is properly licensed by the State of Ohio and state visits. Throughout the relationship, we continue monitoring the business to ensure that the business continues to meet our stringent requirements, including maintenance of required licenses and periodic financial reviews of the business.

While we believe we are operating in compliance with the FinCEN guidelines, there can be *no* assurance that federal enforcement guidelines will *not* change. Federal prosecutors have significant discretion, and there can be *no* assurance that the federal prosecutors will *not* choose to strictly enforce the federal laws governing cannabis. Any change in the Federal government's enforcement position could cause us to immediately cease providing banking services to the cannabis industry. We are upfront with our customers regarding the fact that we *may* have to terminate our deposit services relationship if a change occurs with the Federal government's position, and that the termination *may* come with little or *no* notice.

<u>**Litigation**</u>

As previously disclosed, a cyber-attack occurred in *April 2023* that resulted in a temporary disruption to our computer systems. A cybersecurity firm investigated the nature and scope of the incident, evaluated our systems, and confirmed that nonpublic information relating to current and former employees, customers, and others was obtained from our systems.

On *January 8, 2024,* a customer filed a lawsuit against The Middlefield Banking Company in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio related to the cyber-attack incident. A similar lawsuit was filed on *January 10, 2024,* against The Middlefield Banking Company in the Court of Common Pleas for Cuyahoga County, Ohio. The plaintiffs and class members in the *two* cases, who are current and former customers of the Bank, claim to have been harmed by alleged actions or inactions by the Bank in connection with the incident. The plaintiffs assert a variety of common law and statutory claims regarding the compromised nonpublic information and seek monetary damages, equitable and injunctive relief, pre-judgment and post-judgment interest, awards of actual and punitive damages, costs and attorneys' fees, and other related relief. On *March 28, 2024,* the plaintiff in the case before the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio voluntarily dismissed their lawsuit against The Middlefield Banking Company without prejudice. The plaintiff in the Cuyahoga County lawsuit filed an amended complaint on *August 8, 2024,* to add an additional plaintiff. The amendment made *no* change to the relief sought in the original complaint.

On *October 31, 2024,* the plaintiffs filed with the Court of Common Pleas a motion for preliminary approval of class action settlement, with the Court granting preliminary approval of the class action settlement on *November 6, 2024.* On *February 4, 2025,* the plaintiffs submitted a motion for attorneys' fees for class counsel. The Court of Common Pleas held the Fairness Hearing on *April 1, 2025,* and granted the final approval of the class action settlement, attorneys' fees, and class representative service awards. The case has been settled, and settlement payments were issued on *May 15, 2025.* Losses attributable to the *April 2023* incident were within the coverage limits of the cyber risk insurance policy in place at that time. The policy has an aggregate limit of $3 million and a deductible of $50,000. The policy includes coverage for business loss, breach response, and liabilities that could occur as a result of a cyber event. The costs associated with the lawsuit, including attorney fees and settlement, were billed to and paid by the insurance company in accordance with the terms of the policy.

[**Table of Contents**](#toc)

The following table shows selected financial data for the Bank Segment for the *three* and *six* months ended *June 30, 2025*, and *2024*. The accounting policies of the segment are the same as those followed by the Company. The information is derived from the internal financial reporting records that are used to monitor and manage the Company's financial performance. The segment expense categories are based on the information regularly provided to the CODM and are considered significant to the segment's operations. The Bank Segment excludes the income, expenses, and total assets of the parent company, Middlefield Banc Corp, and the parent company's nonbank asset resolution subsidiary, EMORECO, Inc., which are shown as reconciling items in the following table. There is *no* authoritative guidance for management accounting equivalent to GAAP, and therefore, the financial results of our business segment are *not* necessarily comparable with similar information presented by other companies.

<sup>(*1*)</sup> Includes expenses that are in the reported measure of net income but *not* specifically provided to the CODM. Other noninterest expense is composed of expenses such as equipment expense, Ohio state franchise tax, professional fees, advertising expense, and other expenses.

The CODM utilizes net income as the primary measure to allocate resources during the annual budget process. This measure is used by CODM to evaluate the performance of the business segment, with a focus on net interest income, provision for credit losses, noninterest income, and noninterest expense. Net income is compared to both budgeted and comparative historical amounts on a monthly basis. Drivers of any significant variations from budget are assessed. The measure of segment assets is reported as total assets.

**NOTE *11* - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS**

On *July 4, 2025,* President Trump signed into law the legislation formally titled "An Act to Provide for Reconciliation Pursuant to Title II of H. Con. Res. *14"* and commonly referred to as the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" (the "Act"). The Company is currently evaluating the tax implications of the Act. The Bank does *not* expect the Act to have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.

**Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations**

This Form 10-Q contains certain statements that may be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

The estimates and assumptions involve judgments about a number of things, including future economic, competitive, cybersecurity, and financial market conditions, conflicts around the world, and future business decisions. These matters are inherently subject to significant business, economic, and competitive uncertainties, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond the Company's control. Although the Company believes its estimates and assumptions are reasonable, actual results could vary materially from those shown. The inclusion of forward-looking information does not constitute a representation by the Company or any other person that the indicated results will be achieved. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking information.

These forward-looking statements may involve significant risks and uncertainties. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, actual results may differ materially from the results in these forward-looking statements.

**CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION** 

**Overview**

These comments should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes appearing elsewhere herein.

This discussion contains certain performance measures determined by methods other than under GAAP. Management of the Company uses these non-GAAP measures in its analysis of the Company's performance. These measures are useful when evaluating the underlying performance and efficiency of the Company's operations and Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company's management believes that these non-GAAP measures provide a greater understanding of ongoing operations, enhance comparability of results with prior periods, and demonstrate the effects of significant gains and charges in the current period. The Company's management believes that investors may use these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate the Company's financial performance without the impact of unusual items that may obscure trends in the Company's underlying performance. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for financial measures determined under GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. Non-GAAP measures include tangible book value per common share, return on average tangible common equity, and pre-tax, pre-provision income. The Company calculates the regulatory capital ratios using current regulatory report instructions. The Company's management uses these measures to assess the quality of capital and believes that investors may find them useful in their evaluation of the Company. These capital measures may or may not be necessarily comparable to similar capital measures that may be presented by other companies.

<u>**Financial Condition**</u>

**General**. The Company's total assets on June 30, 2025 were $1.92 billion, an increase of $71.0 million from December 31, 2024. For the same period, total loans increased by $62.3 million, cash and cash equivalents increased by $17.1 million, and investment securities available for sale decreased by $4.7 million. The Company's total liabilities on June 30, 2025 were $1.71 billion, an increase of $65.5 million from December 31, 2024. For the same period, total deposits increased by $147.9 million. Stockholders' equity increased by $5.5 million, or 2.6%, as a result of higher retained earnings.

**Cash and cash equivalents**. Cash and cash equivalents increased $17.1 million to $72.8 million on June 30, 2025, from $55.8 million on December 31, 2024. The increase in cash and cash equivalents is primarily due to an increase in deposits and partially offset by an increase in loans and decrease in short-term borrowings. Deposits from customers into savings and checking accounts, loan and securities repayments, and proceeds from borrowed funds typically increase these accounts. Decreases result from customer withdrawals, new loan originations, security purchases, and repayments of borrowed and brokered funds.

**Investment securities.** Management's objective in structuring the portfolio is to maintain liquidity while providing an acceptable rate of return without sacrificing asset quality. Securities available for sale on June 30, 2025, totaled $161.1 million, a decrease of $4.7 million, or 2.8%, from $165.8 million on December 31, 2024. There were no purchases or sales of securities for the six months ended June 30, 2025. During this period, the Company recorded repayments, calls, and maturities of $783,000 and an increase in the net unrealized losses of $3.6 million.

On June 30, 2025, the Company held $32.6 million at fair value of subordinated debt in other banks, as compared to $32.5 million on December 31, 2024. The average yield on this portfolio was 5.30% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2025, as compared to 5.19% for the 12-month period ended December 31, 2024.

Periodically, management reviews the entire municipal bond portfolio to assess credit quality. Each security held in this portfolio is assessed on attributes that have historically influenced default incidences in the municipal market, such as sector, security, impairment filing, timeliness of disclosure, external credit assessment(s), credit spread, state, vintage, and underwriter. Municipal bonds compose 74.8% of the overall portfolio. These investments have historically proven to have extremely low credit risk.

**Loans.** The loan portfolio consists primarily of single-family mortgage loans used to purchase or refinance personal residences located within the Company's market area, commercial and industrial loans, home equity lines of credit, and commercial real estate loans used to finance properties that are used in the borrowers' businesses, or to finance investor-owned rental properties, and, to a lesser extent, construction and consumer loans. The portfolio is well dispersed geographically. Total loans increased $62.3 million, or 4.1%, to $1.58 billion as of June 30, 2025 from $1.52 billion as of December 31, 2024. The increase in construction and other loans is the result of draws on existing construction loans during the first half of 2025. The increase in owner occupied and commercial and industrial loan portfolios is due to an increased focus on these segments. The increase in home equity lines of credit is primarily the result of current economic conditions. The following table summarizes fluctuation within the primary segments of the loan portfolio:

The Company's Mortgage Banking operation generates loans for sale to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("Freddie Mac") and the FHLB. There was one loan held for sale of $152,000 at June 30, 2025, and no loans held for sale at December 31, 2024. The Company recorded gains on the sale of these loans totaling $63,000 based on proceeds of $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Commercial real estate loans represent the Company's largest loan segment and consist of term loans secured by a mortgage lien on real property and include both owner occupied and non-owner occupied loans as well as multifamily loans. The Company originates fixed and adjustable rate commercial real estate loans to new and existing customers located within its primary markets; however, the property may be located outside of our primary lending areas. As of June 30, 2025, approximately 92% of the properties related to the commercial real estate loans were located in the state of Ohio. Commercial real estate loans are typically originated with maturity dates of less than 20 years with repricing every 5 years. Management believes that the segment is well diversified.

The following table breaks down the Company's commercial real estate portfolio by category and provides the weighted average loan-to-value for each category as of June 30, 2025:

The federal banking regulators have issued guidance for those institutions that are deemed to have concentrations in commercial real estate lending. According to the supervisory criteria contained in the guidance for identifying institutions with a potential commercial real estate concentration risk, institutions that have (1) total reported loans for construction, land development, and other land acquisitions that represent 100% or more of an institution's total risk-based capital; or (2) total commercial real estate loans representing 300% or more of the institution's total risk-based capital and the institution's commercial real estate loan portfolio has increased 50% or more during the prior 36 months are identified as having potential commercial real estate concentration risk. Institutions that are deemed to have concentrations in commercial real estate lending are expected to employ heightened levels of risk management concerning their commercial real estate portfolios and may be required to hold higher levels of capital. The Company, like many community banks, has a material percentage of its loan portfolio in commercial real estate loans. On June 30, 2025, commercial real estate loans (including construction, land, and land development loans) represented 277.3% of total risk-based capital, and growth in that segment over the past 36 months was 23.4%, which is less than the 50% threshold laid out in the regulatory guidance. Construction, land, and land development loans represent 56.3% of total risk-based capital. Based on the regulatory guidance, the Company does not have a concentration in commercial real estate lending as of June 30, 2025.

Management has extensive experience in commercial real estate lending and has implemented and continues to maintain heightened risk management procedures and strong underwriting criteria for its commercial real estate portfolio. The Board of Directors has adopted limits on both aggregate and industry specific concentration levels, including limits specific to commercial real loans. The underwriting and risk rating of all loans is completed by a team that is independent of the individuals originating the loans. Loan monitoring practices include but are not limited to periodic stress testing analysis to evaluate changes in cash flows due to interest rate increases and declines in net operating income. The primary risk elements with respect to our commercial real estate loans are the financial condition of the borrower, sufficiency of the valued collateral, and timeliness of scheduled loan payments, and these loans may be negatively impacted by changes in the real estate markets or in the general economy. We have a policy that requires a periodic review of financial statements from commercial loan customers and have a disciplined and formalized review of the existence of collateral and its value. Nevertheless, we may be required to maintain higher levels of capital as a result of our commercial real estate concentrations, which could require us to obtain additional capital, and may adversely affect shareholder returns. The Company has an extensive capital planning policy, which includes pro forma projections, including stress testing, in which the Board of Directors has established internal minimum targets for regulatory capital ratios that are more than well-capitalized ratios as defined by regulatory requirements.

Nonperforming loans in the commercial real estate segment were $21.0 million at June 30, 2025. The allowance for credit losses for this segment totaled $8.2 million at June 30, 2025, representing an allowance for credit losses to loans ratio of 1.21% specific to the commercial real estate segment.

Our residential real estate loans totaled $357.2 million, or 22.6% of total loans, at June 30, 2025. The Bank grants real estate loans primarily within its designated lending areas, consisting of the communities surrounding branch offices in Ashtabula, Geauga, Portage, Summit, Cuyahoga, Lake, Trumbull, Madison, Delaware, Franklin, Union, Logan, and Hardin counties in Ohio. At June 30, 2025, approximately 99% of the properties related to our residential real estate loans were located in Ohio. Management believes our knowledge of these markets and our relative connectedness to the consumer borrowers we serve outweighs the geographic concentration risks. Our credit policy requires minimum credit scores, evidence of stable income, and maximum loan-to-values when underwriting residential real estate loans. The evaluation of our retail credit portfolio is defined in our credit policy and incorporates the Uniform Real Credit Classification and Account Management Policy as prescribed by federal regulatory authorities. Nonperforming loans in the residential real estate segment were $2.4 million at June 30, 2025. The allowance for credit losses for this segment totaled $5.8 million at June 30, 2025, representing an allowance for credit losses to loans ratio of 1.62% specific to the residential real estate segment.

The Company opted not to phase in, over three years, the effects of the initial CECL entry to equity for the implementation of ASC 326, recorded on January 1, 2023. As of June 30, 2025, management believes that the Company and the Bank meet all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

The Company monitors fluctuations in unused commitments as a means of identifying potential material drawdowns on existing lines of credit. On June 30, 2025, unused line of credit commitments totaled $438.1 million, which is a decrease of $24.7 million, or 5.3%, from December 31, 2024. The commercial unused line of credit commitments were $272.8 million as of June 30, 2025, compared to $308.8 million on December 31, 2024.

**Allowance for Credit Losses and Asset Quality.** The ACL decreased by $112,000, or 0.5%, to $22.3 million on June 30, 2025, from $22.4 million on December 31, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, net loan recoveries totaled $227,000, or 0.03% of average loans, annualized, compared to $97,000 or 0.01% of average loans, annualized, for the same period in 2024. The recovery of credit losses associated with loans was $339,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The ratio of the ACL to nonperforming loans was 89.2% as of June 30, 2025, compared to 136.6% for the same period in the prior year. The ACL to total loans ratio decreased to 1.41% as of June 30, 2025, compared to 1.46% as of June 30, 2024. The decrease in the ACL was mainly from changes in portfolio activity, updated appraisals for individually analyzed loans, updated assumptions, and the economic outlook.

Management analyzes the adequacy of the ACL regularly through reviews of the performance of the loan portfolio considering economic conditions, changes in interest rates and the effect of such changes on real estate values, and changes in the amount and composition of the loan portfolio. The ACL is a significant estimate that is particularly susceptible to changes in the near term. Risks that may impact our loan portfolio include the weakened economic outlook exacerbated by the continued uncertainty characterized by inflation, interest rates, and tariffs. Geopolitical events, both within the U.S. and globally, with weakening growth prospects raise the potential for adverse impacts on the U.S. economy. The direct impacts of the pandemic and related economic disruptions, the market liquidity events in 2023, and persistently high inflation, which previously dominated our risk analysis, have lessened. Changes in interest rates could potentially impact the valuations of assets that collateralize our loans. The Company is concerned about the impact of tighter credit conditions on the economy and the effect that may have on future economic growth. Management's analysis includes a review of all loans designated as individually analyzed, historical loan loss experience, the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, economic conditions, current interest rates, trends in the borrower's industry, and other factors that management believes warrant recognition in providing for an appropriate allowance for credit losses. Future additions or reductions to the allowance for credit losses will be dependent on these factors. Additionally, the Company uses an outside party to conduct an independent review of commercial and commercial real estate loans that is designed to validate management conclusions of risk ratings and the appropriateness of the allowance allocated to these loans. The Company uses the results of this review to help determine the effectiveness of policies and procedures and to assess the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses allocated to these types of loans. Management believes the ACL is appropriately stated as of June 30, 2025. Based on the variables involved and management's judgments about uncertain outcomes, the determination of the allowance for credit losses is considered a critical accounting policy.

**Nonperforming assets.** Nonperforming assets include nonaccrual loans, loans 90 days or more past due, other real estate owned, and repossessed assets. Real estate owned is written down to fair value at its initial recording and continually monitored for changes in fair value. A loan is classified as nonaccrual when, in the opinion of management, there are serious doubts about the collectability of interest and principal. Accrual of interest is discontinued on a loan when management believes, after considering economic and business conditions, the borrower's financial condition is such that collection of principal and interest is doubtful. Payments received on nonaccrual loans are applied against the principal until doubt about collectability ceases.

Nonperforming loans at June 30, 2025, were $25.1 million, compared to $30.0 million at December 31, 2024. Three commercial real estate loans were moved to nonaccrual during 2024. One of the loans paid off in the second quarter of 2025, and the balance of the remaining two loans as of June 30, 2025, was $15.6 million. These loans are adequately secured and individually analyzed within the ACL calculation as of June 30, 2025. Management believes these relationships do not indicate a trend in the markets served, the portfolio, or underwriting standards. A major factor in determining the appropriateness of the ACL is the type of collateral that secures the loans. Nonperforming loans secured by real estate totaled $24.8 million and $29.7 million as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Of the total nonperforming loans on June 30, 2025, 99.1% were secured by real estate. Although this does not insure against all losses, real estate typically provides for at least partial recovery, even in a distressed sale and declining-value environment. The objective of the Company is to minimize future loss exposure.

**Deposits.** The Company considers various sources when evaluating funding needs, including but not limited to deposits, which are a significant source of funds, totaling $1.59 billion or 95.6% of the Company's total average funding sources at June 30, 2025. Total deposits increased $147.9 million on June 30, 2025, from $1.45 billion on December 31, 2024. The following table summarizes fluctuation within the primary segments of the deposit portfolio:

The Company uses specific non-core funding instruments to grow the balance sheet and maintain liquidity. These deposits, either from a broker or a listing service, were $165.1 million on June 30, 2025 and $35.1 million on December 31, 2024 and are included in time and interest-bearing demand deposits on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 31

Deposit balances in excess of the $250,000 FDIC-insured limit totaled approximately $486.4 million, or 30.5% of total deposits, at June 30, 2025 and approximately $447.2 million, or 30.9% of total deposits, at December 31, 2024.

Public fund deposits from state and political subdivisions in the U.S. compared to total deposits were $194.6 million, or 12.2% at June 30, 2025 and $167.9 million, or 11.6% at December 31, 2024.

**Borrowed funds.** The Company uses short-term and long-term borrowings as another source of funding for asset growth and liquidity needs. These borrowings primarily include advances from the FHLB, subordinated debt, short-term borrowings from other banks, and federal funds purchased. FHLB advances decreased by $83.4 million to $89.0 million as of June 30, 2025, compared to $172.4 million at December 31, 2024. Other borrowings were relatively unchanged at $11.6 million as of June 30, 2025 and $11.7 million on December 31, 2024.

**Stockholders**' **equity.** Stockholders' equity increased $5.5 million, or 2.6%, to $216.1 million at June 30, 2025 from $210.6 million at December 31, 2024. This increase was primarily the result of $11.0 million in net income. These changes were partially offset by $3.4 million of cash dividends paid.

The Company's tangible book value per share, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, was $21.60 at June 30, 2025 compared to $20.37 at June 30, 2024 and $20.88 at December 31, 2024. Tangible equity has been impacted by the changes in stockholders' equity described in the previous paragraph, including the unrealized losses of the Company's available-for-sale investment securities portfolio. Net unrealized losses from available-for-sale investment securities were $29.0 million as of June 30, 2025, compared to net unrealized losses of $24.6million at June 30, 2024, and net unrealized losses of $25.4 million at December 31, 2024.

**RESULTS OF OPERATIONS** 

**General.** Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2025, was $6.2 million, a $1.9 million, or 47.9%, increase from the amount earned during the same period in 2024. Diluted earnings per share for the quarter were $0.76 for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and $0.52 for the same period in 2024. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2025, was $11.0 million, a $2.7 million, or 31.9%, increase from the amount earned during the same period in 2024. Diluted earnings per share for the quarter were $1.36 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and $1.03 for the same period in 2024.

**Net interest income**. Net interest income, the primary source of revenue for the Company, is determined by the interest rate spread, which is defined as the difference between income on earning assets and the cost of funds supporting those assets, and the relative amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Management reviews and periodically adjusts the mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, to manage and improve net interest income. The level of interest rates and changes in the amount and composition of interest-earning assets and liabilities affect the Company's net interest income. Management's goal is to maintain a balance between steady net interest income growth and the risks associated with interest rate fluctuations.

Net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2025, totaled $17.4 million, an increase of 15.6% from that reported in the comparable period of 2024. The net interest margin was 3.88% for the three months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of 37 basis points for the same period of 2024. The increase in the net interest margin is attributable to a decrease of 91 basis points paid on certificates of deposits, a decrease in the average balance of certificates of deposit of $35.8 million, an increase in the average balance of loans of $72.6 million, and a decrease in the average balance of FHLB advances of $61.0 million, coupled with a decrease of 108 basis points in the average cost of those advances. The increase was partially offset by an increase in the average balance of money market deposits of $151.6 million.

Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2025, totaled $33.5 million, an increase of 11.6% from that reported in the comparable period of 2024. The net interest margin was 3.79% for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of 26 basis points for the same period of 2024. The increase in the net interest margin is attributable to a decrease of 53 basis points paid on certificates of deposit, a decrease in the average balance of certificates of deposit of $54.3 million, an increase in the average balance of loans of $66.7 million, and a decrease in the average balance of FHLB advances of $42.6 million, coupled with a decrease of 104 basis points in the average cost of those advances. The increase was partially offset by an increase in the average balance of money market deposits of $155.8 million.

The Company is currently in a slightly liability-sensitive position and expects to remain so for the next 18-month outlook period. A decrease in rates should lead to a minimal expansion of net interest margin as the Company's interest-bearing liabilities reprice faster than its interest-bearing assets. As part of the Company's strategy, floor rates are used to protect the Company's net interest margin in a declining interest rate environment. As of June 30, 2025, nearly all loan contracts with floor rates exceed their contractual floor rates. Please refer to Item 3, *Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk,* for further discussion on asset and liability management and interest rate sensitivity.

**Interest and dividend income.** Interest and dividend income increased $1.6 million, or 6.4%, for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same period in the prior year. This is mainly attributable to a $1.7 million increase in interest and fees on loans, which is due to an increase in the average balance of loans of $72.6 million, or 4.8%. The average balance of investment securities decreased by $133,000, or 0.1%, and the 3.64% yield on the investment portfolio increased by 2 basis points, from 3.62%, for the same period in the prior year. The yield for the investment portfolio is based on amortized cost.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 32

[**Table of Contents**](#toc)

Interest and dividend income increased $2.5 million, or 5.0%, for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same period in the prior year. This is mainly attributable to a $2.7 million increase in interest and fees on loans, which is due to an increase in the average balance of loans of $66.7 million, or 4.5%. The average balance of investment securities increased by $6,000, or less than 0.01%, and the 3.67% yield on the investment portfolio increased by 8 basis points, from 3.59%, for the same period in the prior year. The yield for the investment portfolio is based on amortized cost.

**Interest expense.** Interest expense decreased by $717,000, or 6.8%, for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same period in the prior year. This decrease in interest expense is primarily attributable to a decrease in short-term borrowing expense of $1.1 million as a result of the Bank paying down FHLB advances and a decrease of 108 basis points on the rate paid on those advances. The increase in deposit expense of $366,000 is attributable to an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits of $141.1 million, or 13.1%, which is slightly offset by a 2-basis point decrease in the rates paid on deposits.

Interest expense decreased by $985,000, or 4.9%, for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same period in the prior year. This decrease in interest expense is primarily attributable to a decrease in short-term borrowing expense of $1.7 million as a result of the Bank paying down FHLB advances and a decrease of 104 basis points on the rate paid on those advances. The increase in deposit expense of $785,000 is attributable to an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits of $115.6 million, or 10.9%, which is slightly offset by a 1-basis point decrease in the rates paid on deposits.

**Provision for (recovery of) credit losses**. The provision for (recovery of) credit losses represents the charge to income necessary to adjust the ACL to an amount that represents management's assessment of the estimated probable incurred credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Each quarter, management reviews the loan portfolio for estimated probable expected credit losses. Based on this review, a recovery of credit losses of $506,000 was recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to a provision for credit losses of $87,000 for the same period in the prior year. The recovery of credit losses for the 2025 second quarter consisted of a recovery of credit losses on loans of $84,000 and a reduction in the provision for credit losses for unfunded commitments of $422,000. The recovery of credit losses for the 2025 second quarter was mainly due to a decrease in the reserve for unfunded commitments.

A recovery of credit losses of $411,000 was recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $49,000 for the same period in the prior year. The recovery of credit losses for the six months ended June 30, 2025, consisted of a recovery of credit losses on loans of $339,000 and a reduction in the provision for credit losses for unfunded commitments of $72,000. The increase in the recovery of credit losses for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was mainly due to an in increase in recoveries as compared to the same period in the prior year.

**Noninterest income.** Noninterest income increased by $1.3 million, or 74.9%, for the three months ended June 30, 2025, over the comparable 2024 period. This increase was primarily the result of a one-time, non-cash gain of $1.2 million on the exchange of real estate. In April 2025, the Company completed an exchange of real estate with the City of Westerville, Ohio for a parcel of land that had a fair value of $1.5 million. In exchange, Middlefield transferred land and a building with related furnishings associated with its current branch located in Westerville, Ohio. The transferred branch had a net book value of $221,000.

Noninterest income increased by $1.5 million, or 41.2%, for the six months ended June 30, 2025, over the comparable 2024 period. This increase was primarily the result of the previously mentioned $1.2 million gain on the exchange of real estate during the second quarter of 2025 as well as a tax-free benefit from a bank-owned life insurance death claim of $633,000 during the first quarter of 2025. The increase was partially offset by a $262,000 decrease in other income.

**Noninterest expense.** Noninterest expense of $13.7 million for the second quarter of 2025 was 14.7%, or $1,749,000 higher than the second quarter of 2024, primarily due to a $700,000 loss associated with recording a separate property located in Westerfield, Ohio as held for sale during the second quarter of 2025, a $623,000 increase in salaries and employee benefits, and a $289,000 increase in other expense.

Noninterest expense of $25.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was 8.3% or $2.0 million higher than the six months ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to a $847,000 increase in salaries and employee benefits and the previously mentioned $700,000 loss on recording property as held for sale during the second quarter of 2025.

**Provision for income taxes.** The Company recognized $1.2 million in income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2025, which reflected an effective tax rate of 16.5%, as compared to $690,000 in income tax expense with an effective tax rate of 14.2% for the comparable 2024 period.

The Company recognized $2.1 million in income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2025, which reflected an effective tax rate of 16.3% as compared to $1.5 million in income tax expense with an effective tax rate of 14.9% for the comparable 2024 period.

**Analysis of Changes in Net Interest Income.** The following table analyzes the changes in interest income and interest expense, between the three-month periods ended June 30, 2025, and 2024, in terms of (1) changes in the volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and (2) changes in yields and rates. The table reflects the extent to which changes in the Company's interest income and interest expense are attributable to changes in rate (change in rate multiplied by prior period volume), changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior period rate), and changes attributable to the combined impact of volume/rate (change in rate multiplied by the change in volume). The changes attributable to the combined impact of volume/rate are allocated consistently between the volume and rate variances.

**Analysis of Changes in Net Interest Income.** The following table analyzes the changes in interest income and interest expense, between the six-month periods ended June 30, 2025, and 2024, in terms of (1) changes in the volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and (2) changes in yields and rates. The table reflects the extent to which changes in the Company's interest income and interest expense are attributable to changes in rate (change in rate multiplied by prior period volume), changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior period rate), and changes attributable to the combined impact of volume/rate (change in rate multiplied by the change in volume). The changes attributable to the combined impact of volume/rate are allocated consistently between the volume and rate variances.

**LIQUIDITY** 

Management's objective in managing liquidity is to continue meeting the cash flow needs of banking customers, such as new or increased borrowings or deposit withdrawals, as well as the Company's financial commitments, while doing so at a reasonable cost and in a timely manner. The principal sources of liquidity are customer deposits, loan repayments, maturing investment securities available for sale, and federal funds sold, which generate cash that the Company deposits with banks. While investment securities available for sale are generally considered as a source of cash, in the current interest rate environment, it is unlikely that any of these securities would be sold for funding needs. The Company offers a line of retail deposit products created to align with customer expectations while expanding the Company's core funding base. The Company's goal is to obtain the majority of its funding from customer deposits, which are generated principally through development of long-term customer relationships. Along with its liquid assets, the Company has additional sources of liquidity available to ensure that adequate funds are available as needed. These include, but are not limited to, the purchase of federal funds, the ability to borrow funds under line of credit agreements with correspondent banks and borrowing agreements with the FHLB and Federal Reserve Bank, the purchase of brokered deposits, and the adjustment of interest rates to obtain deposits.

At June 30, 2025, the additional borrowing capacity at the FHLB was $389.7 million, as compared to $381.7 million on December 31, 2024. The Company's maximum borrowing capacity at the FHLB was $503.7 million at March 31, 2025. During the third quarter of 2024, the Company was approved for a Borrower in Custody ("BIC") Arrangement to pledge certain loan portfolios, and therefore, the Company also has the option of borrowing from the Federal Reserve discount window. The borrowing capacity with the Federal Reserve discount window was $149.5 million at June 30, 2025. Given the flexibility of borrowing structure options with the FHLB, if the Company needed additional liquidity, the FHLB capacity would likely be used before other funding mechanisms.

At June 30, 2025, total net available liquidity was $764.0 million, compared to $859.0 million at December 31, 2025. This accounted for 47.9% of total deposits at June 30, 2025, compared to 59.4% at December 31, 2025. At June 30, 2025, these liquidity sources exceeded the amount of the Company's uninsured deposit balances. Management believes that the combination of high levels of potentially liquid assets, cash flows from operations, and additional borrowing capacity provided the Bank with strong liquidity as of June 30, 2025. Although the Company currently exhibits strong liquidity, management will continue to monitor liquidity in future periods.

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the adjustments to reconcile net income to net cash provided by operating activities consisted mainly of origination and proceeds from the sale of loans held for sale, non-cash gain on exchange of real estate, earnings on bank-owned life insurance, and net changes in other assets and liabilities. For a more detailed illustration of sources and uses of cash, refer to the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

**INFLATION** 

Substantially all of the Company's assets and liabilities relate to banking activities and are monetary. The consolidated financial statements and related financial data are presented following US GAAP. US GAAP currently requires the Company to measure the financial position and results of operations in terms of historical dollars, except for investment securities available for sale, individually analyzed loans, and other real estate owned that are measured at fair value. Changes in the value of money due to rising inflation can cause purchasing power loss.

Management believes that movements in interest rates affect the financial condition and results of operations to a greater degree than changes in the inflation rate. It should be noted that interest rates and inflation do affect each other but do not always move in correlation with each other. Please refer to Item 3, *Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk*, for further discussion on interest rate risk.

**REGULATORY MATTERS**

The Company is subject to the regulatory requirements of the Federal Reserve System as a bank holding company. The bank subsidiary is subject to regulations of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") and the Ohio Division of Financial Institutions.

The Federal Reserve Board and the FDIC have extensive authority to prevent and remedy unsafe and unsound practices and violations of applicable laws and regulations by institutions and holding companies. The agencies may assess civil money penalties, issue cease-and-desist or removal orders, seek injunctions, and publicly disclose those actions. In addition, the Ohio Division of Financial Institutions possesses enforcement powers to address violations of Ohio banking law by Ohio-chartered banks.

**REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS** 

Financial institution regulators have established guidelines for minimum capital ratios for banks, thrifts, and bank and thrift holding companies. The net unrealized gain or loss on available-for-sale securities is generally not included in computing regulatory capital. To avoid limitations on capital distributions, including dividend payments, the Bank and the Company must each hold a capital conservation buffer above the adequately capitalized risk-based capital ratios. Within the tabular presentation that follows is the adequately capitalized ratio plus a 2.50% capital conservation buffer.

The Bank and the Company met each of the well-capitalized ratio guidelines as of June 30, 2025. The following table indicates the capital ratios for the Bank and the Company as of June 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, as well as the capital category threshold ratios for a well-capitalized, adequately capitalized plus the capital conservation buffer institution.

**Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk**

**ASSET AND LIABILITY MANAGEMENT** 

The primary objective of the Company's asset and liability management function is to maximize the Company's net interest income while simultaneously maintaining an acceptable level of interest rate risk given the Company's operating environment, capital and liquidity requirements, performance objectives, and overall business focus. The principal determinant of the exposure of the Company's earnings to interest rate risk is the timing difference between the repricing or maturity of interest-earning assets and the repricing or maturity of interest-bearing liabilities. The Company's asset and liability management policies are designed to decrease interest rate sensitivity primarily by shortening the maturities of interest-earning assets while at the same time extending the maturities of interest-bearing liabilities. The Board of Directors of the Company continues to believe in a strong asset/liability management process to insulate the Company from material and prolonged increases in interest rates.

The Company's Board of Directors has established an Asset and Liability Management Committee consisting of outside directors and senior management. This committee meets quarterly and generally monitors various asset and liability management policies and strategies.

**Interest Rate Sensitivity Simulation Analysis**

The Company engages an external consultant to facilitate net interest income simulation modeling on a quarterly basis. This modeling measures interest rate risk and sensitivity. The Asset and Liability Management Committee of the Company believes the various rate scenarios of the simulation modeling enable the Company to more accurately evaluate and manage the exposure of interest rate fluctuations on net interest income, the yield curve, various loan and mortgage-backed security prepayments, and deposit decay assumptions.

Earnings simulation modeling and assumptions about the timing and volatility of cash flows are critical in net portfolio equity valuation analysis. Particularly important are the assumptions driving mortgage prepayments and the expected attrition of the core deposit portfolios. These assumptions are based on the Company's historical experience and industry standards and are applied consistently across all rate risk measures.

The Company has established the following guidelines for assessing interest rate risk:

● Net interest income simulation ("NII") - Projected net interest income over the next twelve months will not be reduced by more than 10% given a gradual shift (i.e., over 12 months) in interest rates of up to 200 basis points (+ or -) and assuming no balance sheet growth.

● Portfolio equity simulation - Portfolio equity is the net present value of the Company's existing assets and liabilities. The Company uses an Economic Value of Equity ("EVE") analysis which shows the estimated changes in portfolio equity considering certain long-term shock rates. Given a 200-basis point immediate and permanent increase in market interest rates, portfolio equity may not correspondingly decrease or increase by more than 20% of stockholders' equity. Given a 100-basis point immediate and permanent decrease in market interest rates, portfolio equity may not correspondingly decrease or increase by more than 10% of stockholders' equity.

The following table presents the simulated impact of a 200-basis point upward or 100-basis point downward shift of market interest rates on net interest income and the change in portfolio equity. This analysis assumed the interest-earning asset and interest-bearing liability levels at June 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, remained constant. The impact of the market rate movements was developed by simulating the effects of rates changing gradually over one year from the June 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024 levels for net interest income and portfolio equity. The impact of market-rate movements was developed by simulating the effects of an immediate and permanent change in rates at June 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, for portfolio equity.

**CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES**

The Company's critical accounting estimates involving the more significant judgments and assumptions used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2025, have remained unchanged from December 31, 2024. However, the Company has identified accounting policies that are critical accounting policies, and an understanding of these policies is necessary to understand the Company's financial statements. These policies relate to determining the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses for the investment securities available for sale, loan portfolios, and unfunded commitments. Please refer to Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of our 2024 Form 10-K for further discussion on significant accounting policies.

**Item 4. Controls and Procedures**

<u>Controls and Procedures Disclosure</u> 

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company's reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based on their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are, to the best of their knowledge, effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. After the date of their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that there were no significant changes in internal control or in other factors that could significantly affect the Company's internal controls, including any corrective actions concerning significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.

A material weakness is a significant deficiency (as defined in Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard No. 2), or a combination of significant deficiencies, that results in there being more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by management or employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions.

<u>Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting</u> 

There have not been any changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) that occurred during the Company's most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

## Exhibit 10.361

Exhibit 10.36.1

**MIDDLEFIELD BANC CORP.** 

**2017 OMNIBUS EQUITY PLAN** 

**RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. **Number of Restricted Stock Units Awarded**. Middlefield Banc Corp. ("Middlefield"), an Ohio corporation, hereby awards to _________ (the "Director") _______ restricted stock units (the "RSUs"). Each RSU represents Middlefield's unsecured promise to pay the Director a single share of Middlefield common stock ("Share") for each RSU which vests in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the 2017 Omnibus Equity Plan. Unless and until the RSUs vest, the Director will have no right to receive Shares under such RSUs. Prior to actual distribution of Shares pursuant to any vested RSUs, such RSUs will represent an unsecured obligation of the Company. This award is subject to the terms and conditions of the 2017 Omnibus Equity Plan and this Agreement. Terms that are defined in the 2017 Omnibus Equity Plan are used in this Agreement as they are defined in the 2017 Omnibus Equity Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. **Date of the Award**. The date of this Agreement is as of ________ (the "Grant Date").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. **Vesting, Forfeiture and Time and Form of Payment**. As of the Grant Date, all RSUs will be subject to the conditions and restrictions set forth in this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Vesting Schedule</u>. The Director shall become 100% vested in the RSUs upon the earlier of (i) the one-year anniversary of the Grant Date or (ii) the date of the Annual Meeting which occurs in the year following the year of the Grant Date ("Vesting Date"). Except as provided in paragraph (c) below, if the Director ceases to be a member of the Board of Directors of The Middlefield Banking Company ("Board") for any reason prior to the Vesting Date, any unvested RSU shall be forfeited by Director.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Time and Form of Payment</u>. Each RSU that vests in accordance with Section 3(a) shall be settled by the payment of one share of Middlefield common stock ("Share") to the Director no later than five (5) calendar days following such Vesting Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Vesting Acceleration</u>. The RSUs shall vest prior to the Vesting Date in accordance with the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Death</u>. If Director's service on the Board terminates due to death prior to the Vesting Date, any unvested RSUs will fully vest on the date of such termination and shall be paid within five (5) calendar days of the date of such termination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) <u>Disability</u>. If Director's service on the Board terminates due to Disability prior to the Vesting Date, any unvested RSUs will fully vest on the date of such termination and shall be paid within five (5) calendar days of the date of such termination (or pursuant to the original payment schedule to the extent required to comply with Internal Revenue Code ("Code") Section 409A). The term "Disability" means because of a medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or that can be expected to last for a continuous period of at least 12 months, the Director is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity for a period of at least three months provided, however, that, to the extent the RSUs are considered deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A, means that the Director is disabled within the meaning of Section Code Section 409.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. **RSUs Are Not Transferable**. RSUs granted to the Director under this Agreement may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, exchanged, encumbered, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, or pursuant to a domestic relations order. Middlefield is entitled to disregard any attempt by the Director to sell, transfer, pledge, assign, or otherwise alienate or hypothecate any vested or unvested RSUs or any interest in any vested or unvested RSUs, and any such sale, transfer, pledge, assignment, or other alienation or hypothecation is void and of no force or effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. **Rights as a Stockholder**. Until Shares are distributed to the Director in connection with the vesting of any RSUs in accordance with this Agreement and the 2017 Omnibus Equity Plan, the Director will have none of the associated rights of a stockholder with respect to such shares under Ohio law and Middlefield's Articles of Incorporation and Code of Regulations, and the Director will not be entitled to exercise voting power with respect to such shares or receive cash dividends declared by Middlefield's board of directors with respect to such shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. . **The 2017 Omnibus Equity Plan Governs**. The award of RSUs and this Agreement are subject to the terms and conditions of the 2017 Omnibus Equity Plan, as well as any rules of the Plan Committee under the 2017 Omnibus Equity Plan. In the event of a conflict between one or more provisions of this Agreement and one or more provisions of the 2017 Omnibus Equity Plan, the provisions of the 2017 Omnibus Equity Plan will govern. The Director acknowledges having received a copy of the 2017 Omnibus Equity Plan. The Director is familiar with the terms and provisions of the 2017 Omnibus Equity Plan and accepts this award subject to all the terms and provisions of the 2017 Omnibus Equity Plan. The Director agrees to accept as binding, conclusive, and final all decisions or interpretations of Middlefield's board of directors or Plan Committee having to do with the 2017 Omnibus Equity Plan or this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. **Certificates; Delivery of Shares**. At the discretion of Middlefield, Shares may be delivered to the Director by book-entry credit to an account in the Director's name established by Middlefield with the Middlefield's transfer agent, or upon written request from the Director (or the Director's personal representative, beneficiary or estate, as the case may be) in certificates in the Director's name (or the Director's personal representative, beneficiary or estate). If certificates are issued, they will bear any restrictive legends that Middlefield considers necessary or desirable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. **Entire Agreement**. This Agreement and the 2017 Omnibus Equity Plan supersede any and all other prior understandings and agreements, either oral or in writing, between the parties concerning the subject matter of this Agreement and constitute the sole agreement between the parties relating to the subject matter. All prior negotiations and agreements between the parties concerning the subject matter of this Agreement are merged in this Agreement. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that no representations, inducements, promises, or agreements concerning the RSUs have been made by any party or by anyone acting on behalf of any party that are not contained in this Agreement or in the 2017 Omnibus Equity Plan. Each party acknowledges that any agreement, statement, or promise concerning the RSUs that is not contained in this Agreement, or the 2017 Omnibus Equity Plan is not valid, is not binding, and is of no force or effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. **Headings**. The headings in this Agreement are solely for convenience of reference and do not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. **Notices**. All written notices, requests, and other communications hereunder will be duly given if delivered by hand or mailed, certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, with postage prepaid, to the following addresses or to such other address as either party may designate by like notice. If to Middlefield, notice must be given to Middlefield Banc Corp., 15985 East High Street, P.O. Box 35, Middlefield, Ohio 44062, Attention: Chief Financial Officer, or to such other address as Middlefield designates to the Director in writing. If to the Director, notice must be given to the Director at the Director's address appearing on the signature page of this Agreement, or to such other address as the Director designates to Middlefield.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11. **Taxes**. The Director is hereby advised to consult immediately with his or her own tax advisor about the tax consequences of this Agreement. Director hereby agrees that Middlefield does not have a duty to design or administer this Agreement or the 2017 Omnibus Equity Plan in a manner that minimizes Director's tax liabilities. Director shall not make any claim against the Company, or any of its officers, directors, employees or Related Entities related to tax liabilities arising from the RSUs granted under this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. **Tax Withholding**. To the extent the payment of Shares under this Agreement is subject to tax withholding, such tax withholding shall be made in accordance with Section 15.4 of 2017 Omnibus Equity Plan.
