PROXY STATEMENT

We are providing these proxy materials in connection with the solicitation by the Board of Directors of BancFirst Corporation of proxies to be used at our 2021 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”). In this proxy statement, we refer to the Board of Directors as the “Board,” to BancFirst Corporation as “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company,” and to our wholly-owned subsidiaries, BancFirst, as “BancFirst” and Pegasus Bank as “Pegasus.” This proxy statement, the accompanying proxy card or voter instruction card and our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10−K were first mailed to shareholders on or about April 14, 2021. This proxy statement contains important information for you to consider when deciding how to vote on the matters brought before the Annual Meeting. Please read it carefully.

ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING

What matters will be voted on at the Annual Meeting?

You will be voting on:

| • | Proposal 1: To elect the 20 directors nominated by our Board and named in this proxy statement;

| • | Proposal 2: To amend the BancFirst Corporation Stock Option Plan;

| • | Proposal 3: To amend the BancFirst Corporation Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Option Plan;

| • | Proposal 4: To amend the BancFirst Corporation Directors’ Deferred Stock Compensation Plan;

| • | Proposal 5: To ratify the selection of BKD, LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021; and

| • | Such other business as may properly come before the meeting or any adjournments or postponements thereof.

What are the Board’s recommendations?

The Board recommends a vote:

| • | for the election of the 20 directors nominated by our Board and named in this proxy statement;

| • | for the amendment of the BancFirst Corporation Stock Option Plan;

| • | for the amendment of the BancFirst Corporation Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Option Plan;

| • | for the amendment of the BancFirst Corporation Directors’ Deferred Stock Compensation Plan; and

| • | for the ratification of the selection of BKD, LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021.

Who is entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting?

The Board set April 5, 2021 as the record date for the Annual Meeting (the “record date”). You are entitled to vote if you were a shareholder of record of our common stock as of the close of business on April 5, 2021. Your shares can be voted at the Annual Meeting only if you are attending via conference call or represented by a valid proxy.

How many votes do I have?

You will have one vote for each share of our common stock you owned at the close of business on the record date, provided those shares are either held directly in your name as the shareholder of record or were held for you as the beneficial owner through a broker, bank or other nominee. There are no voting restrictions on our common stock.

1

What is the difference between holding shares as a shareholder of record and beneficial owner?

Most of our shareholders hold their shares through a broker, bank or other nominee rather than directly in their own name. As summarized below, there are some distinctions between shares held of record and those owned beneficially.

Shareholder of Record. If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, BancFirst Trust and Investment Management, you are considered the shareholder of record with respect to those shares, and these proxy materials are being sent directly to you by the Company. As the shareholder of record, you have the right to grant your voting proxy directly to us or to vote during the conference call at the Annual Meeting. If you wish to grant a proxy, we have enclosed a proxy card for you to use.

Beneficial Owner. If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name,” and these proxy materials are being forwarded to you by your broker, bank or nominee, who is considered the shareholder of record with respect to those shares. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or nominee on how to vote and are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. However, since you are not the shareholder of record, you may not vote these shares during the conference call at the Annual Meeting, unless you request, complete and deliver a proxy from your broker, bank or nominee. Your broker, bank or nominee has enclosed a voting instruction card for you to use in directing the broker, bank or nominee how to vote your shares.

What will happen if I do not vote my shares?

Shareholders of Record. If you are the shareholder of record of your shares and you do not vote by proxy card or during the conference call for the Annual Meeting, your shares will not be voted at the Annual Meeting.

Beneficial Owners. If you are the beneficial owner of your shares, your broker or nominee may vote your shares only on those proposals on which it has discretion to vote. If no voting instructions are provided, these record holders can vote your shares only on discretionary, or routine, matters and not on non-discretionary, or non-routine, matters. Uninstructed shares whose votes cannot be counted on non-routine matters result in what are commonly referred to as “broker non-votes.”

The election of directors (Proposal No. 1), the proposal to amend the BancFirst Corporation Stock Option Plan (Proposal No. 2), the proposal to amend the BancFirst Corporation Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Option Plan (Proposal No. 3) and the proposal to amend the BancFirst Corporation Directors’ Deferred Stock Compensation Plan (Proposal No. 4) are considered non-routine matters under the rules and regulations promulgated by NASDAQ and approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Consequently, brokers may not vote uninstructed shares on these proposals. The ratification of BKD, LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 (Proposal No. 5) is considered a routine matter under the rules and regulations promulgated by NASDAQ and approved by the SEC. Consequently, brokers may vote uninstructed shares on this proposal, and we do not expect any broker non-votes on this proposal.

Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted as shares that are present for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting. However, for purposes of determining whether a proposal is approved, abstentions and broker non-votes are tabulated separately. The effect of abstentions and broker non-votes depends on the vote required for a particular proposal. See “What vote is required to approve each proposal,” below, for a description of the effect of abstentions and broker non-votes on such proposal.

If you do not give your broker voting instructions, your broker will only be entitled to vote your shares on Proposal 5. We urge you to provide instructions to your broker, bank or other nominee so that your votes may be counted on all of these important matters.

How many votes can be cast by all shareholders?

Each share of BancFirst Corporation common stock is entitled to one vote. There is no cumulative voting. We had 32,771,013 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote on the record date.

How many votes must be present to hold the Annual Meeting?

A majority of our outstanding shares of common stock as of the record date must be present at the Annual Meeting in order to hold the Annual Meeting and conduct business. This is called a “quorum.” Shares that are present and entitled to vote on one or more of the matters to be voted upon at the Annual Meeting are counted as present for establishing a quorum. Both abstentions and broker non-

2

votes are counted as present for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum. If a quorum is not present, we expect that the Annual Meeting will be adjourned until we obtain a quorum.

What vote is required to approve each proposal?

Proposal 1: Election of 20 Directors

The election of directors requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote. Each director nominee who receives at least a majority of the common stock outstanding will be elected as a director for the ensuing one year. Withheld votes will have the same effect as votes “against” this proposal, and broker non-votes will have no effect on the vote for this proposal.

Proposal 2: Amendment of the BancFirst Corporation Stock Option Plan

This proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote. Abstention will have the same effect as a vote “against” this proposal, and broker non-votes will have no effect on the vote for this proposal.

Proposal 3: Amendment of the BancFirst Corporation Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Option Plan

This proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote. Abstention will have the same effect as a vote “against” this proposal, and broker non-votes will have no effect on the vote for this proposal.

Proposal 4: Amendment of the BancFirst Corporation Directors’ Deferred Stock Compensation Plan

This proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote. Abstention will have the same effect as a vote “against” this proposal, and broker non-votes will have no effect on the vote for this proposal.

Proposal 5: Ratification of the selection of BKD, LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021

This proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote. Abstention will have the same effect as a vote “against” this proposal.

Can I change or revoke my vote after I return my proxy card or voting instruction card?

Yes. Even if you sign the proxy card or voting instruction card in the form accompanying this proxy statement, you retain the power to revoke your proxy or change your vote. You can revoke your proxy at any time before it is exercised by mailing written notice specifying such revocation to the Secretary of the Company at least five business days before the Annual Meeting. You may change your vote by mailing a valid, later-dated proxy to the secretary of the Company at least five business days before the Annual meeting, or by voting at the Annual Meeting. However, please note that if you would like to vote at the Annual Meeting and you are not the shareholder of record, you must request, complete and deliver a proxy from your broker, bank or nominee.

What does it mean if I receive more than one proxy or voting instruction card?

It generally means your shares are registered differently or are in more than one account. Please provide voting instructions for all proxy and voting instruction cards you receive.

Who can attend the Annual Meeting?

All shareholders as of the record date, or their duly appointed proxies, may attend. The meeting will be held via conference call.

Who pays for the proxy solicitation and how will the Company solicit votes?

We will bear the expense of printing and mailing proxy materials. In addition to this solicitation of proxies by mail, our directors, officers and other employees may solicit proxies by personal interview, telephone, facsimile or email. They will not be paid any additional compensation for such solicitation. We will request brokers, banks and nominees who hold shares of our common stock in their names

3

to furnish proxy materials to beneficial owners of the shares. We will reimburse such brokers, banks and nominees for their reasonable expenses incurred in forwarding solicitation materials to such beneficial owners.

How can I access the Company’s proxy materials and annual report electronically?

The proxy statement and our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10−K are available at our proxy materials website at www.proxydocs.com/BANF. This website does not use any features that identify you as a visitor to the website. The Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 (other than the exhibits thereto), as well as copies of other filings or exhibits to filings made with the SEC, are also available without charge upon written request. Such requests should be directed to: Randy Foraker, Executive Vice President and Secretary, BancFirst Corporation, 101 North Broadway, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73102.

Is a list of shareholders available?

The names of shareholders of record entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be available to shareholders entitled to vote at this meeting for ten days prior to the meeting for any purpose relevant to the meeting. This list can be viewed between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., local time, at our principal executive offices at 101 N. Broadway, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Please contact Randy Foraker, Executive Vice President and Secretary, BancFirst Corporation, 101 North Broadway, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73102, to make arrangements.

How do I find out the voting results?

Preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting, and final voting results will be published within four business days of the annual meeting on Form 8-K, which we will file with the SEC. After the Form 8-K is filed, you may obtain a copy by visiting our website at www.bancfirst.bank, which provides links to the SEC’s website. You may also obtain a copy by visiting the SEC’s website directly or by contacting Randy Foraker, Executive Vice President and Secretary, BancFirst Corporation, 101 N. Broadway, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73102.

What if I have questions about lost stock certificates or I need to change my mailing address?

Shareholders of record may contact our transfer agent, BancFirst Trust and Investment Management, by calling (405) 270-4797 or writing to BancFirst Trust and Investment Management, P.O. Box 26883, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73126, to get more information about these matters.

HOW DO I VOTE?

Your vote is important

You have the option to vote and submit your proxy over the Internet. If you have Internet access, we encourage you to record your vote over the Internet at www.proxypush.com/BANF. We believe it will be convenient for you, and it saves postage and processing costs. In addition, when you vote over the Internet, your vote is recorded immediately, and there is no risk that postal delays will cause your vote to arrive late and therefore not be counted. If you do not vote over the Internet, please vote by telephone or by completing and returning the enclosed proxy card in the postage-paid envelope provided. Submitting your proxy over the Internet, by telephone, or by mail will not affect your right to vote in person if you decide to attend the Annual Meeting.

Vote by Mail

If you choose to vote by mail, simply mark your proxy card or voting instruction card, sign and date it, and return it in the postage-paid envelope provided.

Voting at the Annual Meeting

The method or timing of your vote will not limit your right to vote at the Annual Meeting if you attend the meeting and vote via the conference call. However, if your shares are held in the name of a broker, bank or other nominee, you must obtain a proxy, executed in your favor, from the holder of record to be able to vote at the Annual Meeting. You should allow yourself enough time prior to the Annual Meeting to obtain this proxy from the holder of record, and send to the Secretary of the Company at least five business days before the meeting.

4

The shares represented by the proxy cards or voting instruction cards received, properly marked, signed, dated and not revoked, will be voted at the Annual Meeting. If you sign and return your proxy card but do not give voting instructions, the shares represented by that proxy card will be voted as recommended by the Board. If you fail to return your proxy card, or if your shares are held in “street name” and you do not instruct your broker how to vote your shares by failing to complete the voting instruction card, the effect will be as though you cast a vote “against” Proposal s 1, 2, 3 and 4.

PROPOSAL 2

APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT TO THE BANCFIRST CORPORATION STOCK OPTION PLAN

Subject to shareholder approval, the Board has amended the BancFirst Corporation Stock Option Plan (the “Employee Plan”) to increase the remaining number of shares of common stock authorized to be granted after the date of such amendment to 300,000 shares. As of April 5, 2021, there were 167,500 shares of common stock available for future option grants under the Employee Plan.

The Board believes that the approval of the amendment to the Employee Plan is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, as the availability of an adequate number of shares reserved for issuance under the Employee Plan and the ability to grant stock options is an important factor in attracting, motivating and retaining qualified personnel essential to the success of the Company.

Summary of the Provisions of the Employee Plan

The principal features of the Employee Plan are summarized below. This summary does not purport to be a complete description of all the provisions of the Employee Plan. The summary is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Employee Plan, as proposed to be amended by the BancFirst Corporation resolution to amend the stock option plan. The resolution has been filed as Appendix A to the copy of this Proxy Statement that was filed electronically with the SEC and can be reviewed on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. A copy of the plan document may also be obtained without charge by writing to Randy Foraker, Executive Vice President and Secretary at BancFirst Corporation, 101 N. Broadway, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73102.

The Employee Plan, which is not subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, provides for the grant of non-qualified stock options.

The Employee Plan is administered by the Committee. The Committee is generally the Board, certain members of which are principal shareholders and employees of the Company or its affiliates, and the Board may also include participants in the Employee Plan. Pursuant to the Employee Plan, the Executive Committee of the Board may, by delegation of the Board, function as the Committee.

All decisions of the interpretation or application of the Plan are determined by the Committee and such decisions are final, conclusive and binding on all participants.

The maximum number of shares of common stock that may be granted pursuant to the Employee Plan is proposed to be increased from 167,500 to 300,000 shares (subject to adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits, reverse stock splits, combinations, reclassifications, or like changes in the capital structure of the Company).

Currently all plan options must be granted, if at all, no later than December 31, 2024.

Options may be granted only to employees (including officers) of the Company or its subsidiaries. All plan options must have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. As defined in the Employee Plan, “fair market value” is stated to be equal to the closing price of the common stock as reported on the NASDAQ Global Market, Inc. (“NASDAQ”) on the date of grant or, if no closing price is so reported, the closing price of the common stock as reported by NASDAQ on the most recent date next preceding the date of grant.

The exercise price is payable on exercise of the plan option and is payable in cash, certified check, bank draft or money order, unless otherwise determined by the Board. Unless otherwise determined by the Board at the time of granting an option, plan options vest 25% per year commencing on the fourth year after grant, until the Plan Option is 100% vested. Except for termination of employment as a result of retirement or death, if an optionee ceases to be an employee of the Company for any reason, other than as a result of embezzlement, theft or other violation of law, the optionee may exercise his or her option (to the extent exercisable at the time of termination) at any time within 30 days after termination. If an optionee ceases to be an employee of the Company due to retirement, the optionee may exercise the option (to the extent exercisable at the time of termination) at any time within six months after such retirement. If an optionee ceases to be an employee of the Company due to death, the optionee’s estate, personal representative, or beneficiary shall have the right to exercise the option (to the extent exercisable at the time of death) at any time within 12 months from the date of the optionee’s death.

During the lifetime of the optionee, an option may be exercised only by the optionee. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee, no option may be assignable except (i) by will, (ii) by the laws of descent and distribution, (iii) for the purpose of making a charitable gift, or (iv) to a revocable trust of which the optionee is a trustee.

Except as described above, plan options may not have a term in excess of 15 years.

6

The Board may terminate or amend the Employee Plan at any time; provided, however, that without the approval of the shareholders of the Company, the Board may not amend the Employee Plan to materially increase the total number of shares of common stock covered thereby, materially increase the benefits accruing to participants under the Employee Plan, or materially modify the requirements as to eligibility for participation in the Employee Plan.

Summary of Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Employee Plan

The federal tax consequences of stock options are complex and subject to change. Furthermore, the following summary is intended only as a general guide to the United States federal income tax consequences of options granted under the Employee Plan under current law, and does not attempt to describe all potential tax consequences. In particular, this summary does not describe the deferred compensation provisions of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code to the extent that an award is subject to such provision.

Non-qualified stock options have no special tax status. An optionee generally recognizes no taxable income as the result of the grant of such an option. Upon exercise of the option, the optionee normally recognizes ordinary income with respect to the acquired shares in the amount of the difference between the option price and the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise. Such ordinary income generally is subject to withholding of income and employment taxes. Upon the sale of stock acquired by the exercise of a non-qualified stock option, any gain or loss, based on the difference between the sale price and the fair market value of the shares on the date of recognition of income, will be taxed as long-term or short-term capital gain or loss, depending upon the length of time the optionee has held the stock from the date of recognition of income. No tax deduction is available to the Company with respect to the grant of the option or the sale of stock acquired pursuant to such grant. Provided certain withholding requirements are met, the Company should be entitled to a deduction equal to the amount of ordinary income recognized by the optionee as a result of the exercise of the option.

Specific Benefits under the Employee Plan

The Company has not approved any awards that are conditioned upon shareholder approval of the proposed amendment of the Employee Plan. The number, amount and type of awards to be received by or allocated to eligible persons in the future under the Employee Plan cannot be determined at this time.

PROPOSAL 3

APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT TO THE BANCFIRST CORPORATION

NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS’ STOCK OPTION PLAN

Subject to shareholder approval, the Board has amended the BancFirst Corporation Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Option Plan (the “Non-Employee Directors’ Plan”) to increase the remaining number of shares of common stock authorized to be granted after the date of such amendment to 50,000 shares. As of April 5, 2021, there were 30,000 shares available for issuance under the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan.

The Non-Employee Directors’ Plan was approved by the Company’s shareholders on June 24, 1999. The purpose of the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan is to compensate non-management directors for participation on the Board or its committees by the automatic grant of stock options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock. Directors who are employees of BancFirst Corporation are not eligible to participate in the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan.

Summary of the Provisions of the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan

Following is a brief description of the principal features of the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan. The summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan, as proposed to be amended by the BancFirst Corporation resolution to amend the Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Option Plan. The resolution has been filed as Appendix B to the copy of this Proxy Statement that was filed electronically with the SEC and can be reviewed on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. A copy of the plan document may also be obtained without charge by writing the Randy Foraker, Executive Vice President and Secretary at BancFirst Corporation, 101 N. Broadway, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73102.

Directors who are not employees of the Company are eligible to participate in the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan. The Non-Employee Directors’ Plan is administered by our Board. All questions of interpretation of the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan or of the options granted pursuant to the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan are determined by the Board. However, the grants of stock options and the amount and nature of the options granted are automatic, as described below.

Under the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan, an option to purchase 10,000 shares of common stock is granted to each non-employee director upon initial appointment to the Board. The exercise price for an option is determined by the closing price as reported on the NASDAQ Global Market (or other principal exchange on which the common stock is traded) on the business day preceding the date the option is granted.

An option becomes exercisable in four equal annual installments beginning on the first anniversary of the date of grant, and expires on the fifteenth anniversary of the date of grant. If a director is terminated for cause, all options will be forfeited immediately. If a director ceases to be member of the Board for any other reason, unvested options will terminate and only previously vested options may be exercised for a period of 30 days following termination. If an optionee ceases to be a director due to death, the optionee’s estate, personal representative, or beneficiary shall have the right to exercise the option (to the extent exercisable at the time of death) at any time within 12 months from the date of the optionee’s death).

The exercise price of an option granted under the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan must be paid upon exercise of the option and is payable in cash, certified check, bank draft or money order, unless otherwise determined by the Board. Stock options granted under the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan are non-qualified stock options.

If the amendment to the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan is approved by our shareholders, the remaining number of shares of common stock that are reserved for issuance under the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan will be increased to 50,000 shares, (subject to adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits, reverse stock splits, combinations, reclassifications, or like changes in the capital structure of the Company). Options and shares that are forfeited or otherwise reacquired by us will again be available for the grant of options under the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan. Shares of common stock issued under the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan may be authorized but unissued shares or shares reacquired by us and held in treasury.

The Board may terminate or amend the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan at any time; provided, however, that without the approval of the shareholders of the Company, the Board may not amend the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan to materially increase the total number of shares of common stock covered thereby, materially increase the benefits accruing to participants under the plan, or materially modify the requirements as to eligibility for participation in the plan.

Summary of Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan

The following is a general description of federal income tax consequences to our non-employee directors relating to stock options granted under the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan. This discussion does not purport to cover all federal tax consequences relating to the

8

directors or the Company, nor does it describe state, local or foreign tax consequences. In particular, this summary does not describe the deferred compensation provisions of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code to the extent that an award is subject to such provision.

A director will not recognize income upon the grant of a non-qualified stock option to purchase shares of common stock. Upon exercise of the option, the director will recognize ordinary compensation income equal to the excess of the fair market value over the exercise price for such shares. We will be entitled to a tax deduction equal to the amount of ordinary compensation income recognized by the director. The deduction will be allowed at the same time the director recognizes the income. The tax basis of the shares of common stock in the hands of the director will equal the exercise price paid for the shares plus the amount of ordinary compensation income the director recognizes upon exercise of the option, and the holding period for the shares for capital gains purposes will commence on the day the option is exercised. A director who sells shares of common stock acquired on exercise of the option will recognize capital gain or loss measured by the difference between the tax basis of the shares and the amount realized on the sale.

Specific Benefits under the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan

Awards under the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan are automatic to each non-employee director upon initial appointment to the Board, and the Company has not approved any awards that are conditioned upon shareholder approval of the proposed amendment of the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan.

Aggregate Past Grants under the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan

As of April 5, 2021, awards covering 535,000 shares issuable under the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan had been granted (before cancellations of awards covering 20,000 shares), with the current non-employee directors of the Company as a group having been granted options to purchase an aggregate 260,000 shares of common stock.

The Board recommends a vote “FOR” the proposed amendment to the BancFirst Corporation Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Option Plan.

PROPOSAL 4

APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT TO THE BANCFIRST CORPORATION

Directors’ Deferred Stock Compensation Plan

Subject to shareholder approval, the Board has amended the BancFirst Corporation Directors’ Deferred Stock Compensation Plan (the “Deferred Stock Compensation Plan”) to increase the aggregate remaining number of shares available for authorization under the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan to 40,000 shares of common stock. As of April 5, 2021, there were only approximately 19,409 shares available for authorization under the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan.

The Deferred Stock Compensation Plan is intended to provide individuals who serve as directors of the Company or its banking subsidiary, BancFirst, or as advisory directors of the various community bank branches of BancFirst (each, a “Participating Director” and collectively, “Participating Directors”), an opportunity to defer the receipt of their director fees and to receive those deferred fees in the form of shares of common stock. All of the Company’s directors are eligible to participate in the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan.

Summary of the Provisions of the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan

The principal features of the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan are summarized below. This summary does not purport to be a complete description of all the provisions of the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan. The summary is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan, as it is proposed to be amended by the BancFirst Corporation resolution to amend the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan. The resolution has been filed as Appendix C to the copy of this Proxy Statement that was filed electronically with the SEC and can be reviewed on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. A copy of the plan document may also be obtained without charge by writing to Randy Foraker, Executive Vice President and Secretary at BancFirst Corporation, 101 N. Broadway, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73102.

Under the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan, Participating Directors may defer all or part of their director fees otherwise payable in cash. Compensation that is deferred will be credited to each Participating Director’s account under the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan (the “Deferral Account”) in the form of Units. The number of Units credited will be determined by dividing the amount of fees deferred by the closing price of the common stock on the deferral date as reported in The Wall Street Journal or a similar publication selected by the Compensation Committee. When cash dividends are paid on common stock, the Participating Director’s Deferral Account will be credited with a number of Units determined by multiplying the number of Units in the Deferral Account on the dividend record date by the per-share dividend amount and then dividing the product by the stock price on the dividend record date. In the case

9

of stock dividends, the Participating Director’s Deferral Account will be credited with a number of Units determined by multiplying the number of Units in the Deferral Account by the stock dividend declared.

Following the earlier of (i) a Participating Director’s termination of service as a director or in the event of a Participating Director’s death, or (ii) the termination date of the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan, all amounts credited to a Participating Director’s Deferral Account will be paid to the Participating Director in the form of shares of common stock, the number of which shares will equal the number of Units credited to the Participating Director’s Deferral Account. A Participating Director may elect to receive the shares in a lump sum on a date specified by the Participating Director or in substantially equal annual installments over a period not to exceed three years.

The Deferred Stock Compensation Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board, certain members of which may also include participants in the Employee Plan. The Deferred Stock Compensation Plan may be amended or terminated at any time by the Compensation Committee.

Summary of Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan

The following is a general description of federal income tax consequences to our non-employee directors relating to the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan. This discussion does not purport to cover all federal tax consequences relating to the directors or the Company, nor does it describe state, local or foreign tax consequences. In particular, this summary does not describe the deferred compensation provisions of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code to the extent that an award is subject to such provision.

The Deferred Stock Compensation Plan permits Participating Directors to defer to a later year receipt of all or a portion of their director fees that otherwise would be includible in income for tax purposes in the year in which it would have been paid. Under current tax laws, no income will be recognized by a Participating Director at the time of deferral. Upon payment, a Participating Director will recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the sum of the fair market value of the shares of common stock received and the cash received for any fractional share. The Company will be entitled to a deduction equal to the income recognized by the Participating Director.

Specific Benefits under the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan

The number of persons participating in the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan is 85. Because the aggregate benefits under the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan are dependent upon the number of Participating Directors who elect to participate in the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan, the portion of their directors’ fees that Participating Directors elect to defer and the market price of common stock when deferred compensation and dividends are credited to their Deferral Accounts, it is not possible to predict what benefits will be received under the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan.

Aggregate Past Grants under the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan

The following table shows information regarding the number of Units credited to Participating Directors’ Deferral Accounts in respect of deferral of directors’ fees under the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan as of April 5, 2021.

PROPOSAL 5

RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

BKD, LLP (“BKD”) was the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2020 and has been approved by the Audit Committee of the Board (the “Audit Committee”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021. Although ratification is not required by the Company’s certificate of incorporation, bylaws, Oklahoma law or otherwise, the Board is submitting the appointment of BKD to the Company’s shareholders for ratification because the Company values its shareholders’ views on the independent registered public accounting firm. If the Company’s shareholders fail to ratify the appointment, it will be considered as a non-binding recommendation to the Board and the Audit Committee to consider the appointment of a different firm for fiscal year 2021. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Board and the Audit Committee may select a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.

Representatives of BKD are expected to attend the Annual Meeting and will have an opportunity to make a statement or to respond to appropriate questions from shareholders. BKD has advised the Company that they are independent with respect to the Company.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

The Audit Committee has established a policy to pre-approve all audit services and non-audit services performed by our independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee also considers whether such services are consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence and considers whether our independent registered public accounting firm is positioned to provide us with effective and efficient audit services needed to properly manage risk or improve audit quality. In its review of any non-audit service fees, the Audit Committee considers, among other things, the possible effect of the performance of such services on the auditor’s independence. No non-audit services were performed for the Company by BKD during 2020 or 2019. The Audit Committee pre-approved 100% of audit fees and audit-related fees during the year ended December 31, 2020.

The following table shows the fees billed for the audit provided by BKD during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.

|  | 2020 |  |  | 2019 |
Audit fees |  | $ | 764,352 |  |  | $ | 726,819 |
Audit-related fees |  | — |  |  | — |
Tax fees |  | — |  |  | — |
All other fees |  | — |  |  | — |
Total |  | $ | 764,352 |  |  | $ | 726,819 |

Audit fees for professional services rendered by BKD include fees related to the audits of the Company and of certain of our subsidiaries, other attestation services, internal control audits and assistance with interpretation of accounting standards.

Additional information concerning the Audit Committee and its activities with BKD can be found in the following sections of this proxy statement: “Corporate Governance—Audit Committee” and “Audit Committee Report.”

The Board recommends a vote “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of BKD as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company for 2021. Proxies solicited by the Board will be voted for the proposal unless contrary instructions are given.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The Company complies with all federal laws affecting corporate governance and disclosures, such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and rules adopted by the SEC and NASDAQ, as well as various governance best practices.

Director Independence

The NASDAQ’s listing standards require our Board to be comprised of at least a majority of independent directors. For a director to be considered independent, the Board must determine that the director does not have any direct or indirect material relationship with the Company. Based on the independence standards prescribed by NASDAQ, our Board has affirmatively determined that each of the following directors is independent: C. L. Craig, Jr., F. Ford Drummond, Joseph Ford, Frank Keating, Bill G. Lance, Dave R. Lopez, William Scott Martin, Tom H. McCasland III, Ronald J. Norick, Robin Roberson, Natalie Shirley, Michael K. Wallace, Gregory G. Wedel and G. Rainey Williams, Jr. In addition, as prescribed by the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules, these independent directors have at least one scheduled meeting without management present. See “Corporate Governance—Independent Directors’ Committee.”

11

In determining independence, the Board reviews whether directors have any material relationship with the Company. The Board considers all relevant facts and circumstances. In assessing the materiality of a director’s relationship to the Company, the Board considers the issues from the director’s standpoint and from the perspective of the persons or organizations with which the director has an affiliation and is guided by the standards set forth below. The Board reviews commercial, industrial, banking, consulting, legal, accounting, charitable and familial relationships. An independent director must not have any material relationship with the Company, directly or as a partner, shareholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the Company, or any relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

A director will not be considered independent in the following circumstances:

(1) | The director is, or has been in the past three years, an employee of the Company, or an immediate family member of the director is, or has been in the past three years, an executive officer of the Company.

(2) | The director has received, or has an immediate family member who has received during any twelve-month period within the last three years, more than $120,000 in direct compensation from the Company, other than compensation for Board service, compensation received by the director’s immediate family member for service as a non-executive employee of the Company, and pension or other forms of deferred compensation for prior service with the Company that is not contingent on continued service.

(3) | (A) The director or an immediate family member is a current partner of the firm that is the Company’s external auditor; (B) the director is a current employee of such a firm; (C) the director has an immediate family member who is a current employee of such a firm and who participates in the firm’s audit, assurance or tax compliance (but not tax planning) practice; or (D) the director or an immediate family member is or was within the last three years (but is no longer) a partner or employee of such a firm and personally worked on the Company’s audit within that time.

(4) | The director or an immediate family member is, or has been in the past three years, employed as an executive officer of another company where any of the Company’s present executive officers at the same time serves or has served on that company’s compensation committee.

(5) | The director is, or has an immediate family member who is, a partner in, or a controlling shareholder or an executive officer of, any organization to which the Company made, or from which the Company received, payments for property or services in the current or any of the past three fiscal years that exceed the greater of 5% of the recipient’s consolidated gross revenues for that year, or $200,000.

For these purposes, an “immediate family member” includes a director’s spouse, parents, children, siblings, mother-and father-in-law, sons-and daughters-in-law, brothers-and sisters-in-law, and anyone who shares the director’s home.

Board Refreshment and Assessment

Effective Board refreshment and assessment processes are an integral part of corporate governance. No person can be nominated for election as a director after attaining the age of 79 years old, so there is an ongoing need to identify and consider new director candidates. The Board Issues Committee is responsible for identifying director candidates, assessing the skills and performance of continuing directors, and recommending candidates for nomination to the Independent Directors Committee for their consideration as directors for the annual election and filling any Board vacancies.

Director Qualifications

The Company has no specified Board membership criteria that apply to nominees recommended for a position on the Company’s Board. However, members of the Board should have the highest professional and personal ethics and values, consistent with the Company’s longstanding values and standards. They should also have broad experience at the policy-making level in business, government, education, technology or public service. In addition, directors should represent a diversity of viewpoints, backgrounds, experiences, gender and other demographics. They should be committed to enhancing shareholder value and should have sufficient time to carry out their duties and to provide insight and practical wisdom based on experience. Directors’ service on other boards of public companies should be limited to a number that permits them, given their individual circumstances, to perform responsibly all director duties.

Identifying and Evaluating Candidates for Directors

Candidates may come to the attention of the Board Issues Committee through current Board members, shareholders or other persons. Identified candidates may be considered at any point during the year. As described below, the Independent Directors’ Committee will consider properly submitted shareholder recommendations for candidates for the Board to be included in the Company’s proxy statement. In making its nominations, the Independent Directors’ Committee seeks to achieve a diversity of backgrounds, experience, skill-sets, ethnicity and gender on the Board.

12

Shareholder Recommendations

The policy of the Independent Directors’ Committee is to consider properly submitted shareholder recommendations of candidates for membership on the Board as described above under “Identifying and Evaluating Candidates for Directors.” In evaluating any such recommendations, the Independent Directors’ Committee will consider the balance of knowledge, experience and capability on the Board and will address the membership criteria set forth above under “Director Qualifications.” Any shareholder recommendations proposed for consideration by the Independent Directors’ Committee should include the candidate’s name and qualifications for Board membership and should be addressed to the Secretary pursuant to the procedure described under the heading “Proposals for the 2022 Meeting of Shareholders.”

Skillset of Director Nominees

The Company believes the following skills should be represented in its Board of Directors to help ensure the success of the Company.

•Accounting/Finance | •Healthcare

Board Leadership Structure and Risk Oversight

The Company’s senior leadership is shared between two positions — the Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Chairman of the Board. Separating these positions allows the Company’s Chief Executive Officer to focus on the Company’s day-to-day business, while allowing the Executive Chairman of the Board to lead the Company’s Board in its fundamental role of oversight of management. The Company believes that, generally, the separated role of Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer provides an appropriate balance between leadership and independent oversight. However, the Company’s bylaws do not require separation of the offices of Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and the Board believes this determination should be made in the Company’s best interests based on the circumstances at the time.

In deciding which board leadership structure it believes will provide the most effective leadership and board oversight for the Company, the Board considers a range of factors. The factors include, but are not limited to: the Company’s operating and financial performance under the existing board leadership structure; recent or anticipated changes in the CEO role; and the effectiveness of current processes and structures for Board interaction with and oversight of management. The Board will continue to exercise its judgment periodically

18

to determine the board leadership structure that it believes will provide appropriate leadership, direction and oversight, while facilitating the effective functioning of both the Board and management.

The Board is charged with general oversight of the management of the Company’s risks. The Board considers risks, as appropriate, among other factors in reviewing the Company’s strategy, business plan, budgets and major transactions. Each of the Board’s committees assists the Board in overseeing the management of the Company’s risks within the areas delegated to the committee. In particular, the Executive Committee assists the Board by reviewing reports from management on at least an annual basis on the risks facing the Company, management’s actions to address those risks and the Company’s risk management processes. Following its reviews of the reports, the Executive Committee reports the results of its reviews to the full Board. The Audit Committee assists the Board with oversight of operational and compliance risk by reviewing internal audit reports from the Company’s Chief Internal Auditor. The Compensation Committee oversees risks related to the Company’s compensation programs and policies and meets at least annually with the Executive Chairman to discuss such risks. The BancFirst Senior Loan Committee is responsible for the oversight of credit risk of BancFirst, on which it reports monthly to the Board. The BancFirst Administrative Committee assists the Board and BancFirst executive management with the oversight of risks other than credit risk.

Executive Committee

The Executive Committee has the authority to exercise all the powers of the full Board during the intervals between Board meetings, except the power to amend the Bylaws and those powers specifically delegated to other committees of the Board. Members of the Executive Committee in 2020 were directors Dennis L. Brand (Chairman), James R. Daniel, David R. Harlow, David E. Rainbolt, H.E. Rainbolt and Darryl W. Schmidt, and executive officers Roy C. Ferguson, K. Gordon Greer.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee of the Company also serves as the Audit Committee of BancFirst. The Audit Committee is responsible for conducting an annual examination of the Company and for ensuring that adequate internal controls and procedures are maintained. An independent registered public accounting firm is engaged to conduct the annual examination and the Audit Committee meets with the independent registered public accounting firm to discuss the scope and results of the examination. The Chief Internal Auditor and the Executive Vice President of Asset Quality report to the Audit Committee, and the Chief Risk Officer meets with the Audit Committee representing management.

Members of the Audit Committee in 2020 were Joseph Ford, William Scott Martin, Robin Roberson and Gregory G. Wedel (Chairman). The Board has determined that each such member of the Audit Committee was independent pursuant to applicable NASDAQ and SEC rules. The Board also determined that Mr. Wedel is an audit committee financial expert as defined by applicable SEC rules. The Board also determined that Mr. Martin is a banking industry expert. The Audit Committee has a written charter. The charter is available on the Company’s website under Investor Relations.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT

The Compensation Committee of the Board evaluates and recommends to the Board, the compensation of the Chief Executive Officers of BancFirst Corporation and BancFirst, considering any performance factors, market compensation information and management recommendations that it deems appropriate. The Compensation Committee also reviews and approves, the compensation of the other executive officers of the Company. In connection with these duties, the Compensation Committee meets at least annually with the Executive Chairman to discuss, review and evaluate the relationship between our risk management policies and practices and executive compensation arrangements. This meeting includes a review of the structure and components of our compensation arrangements, the material potential sources of risk in our business lines and compensation arrangements and our various policies and practices that mitigate these risks. Within this framework, a variety of topics are discussed, including the parameters of acceptable and excessive risk taking (recognizing that some risk taking is an inherent part of operating any business) and the general business goals and concerns of the Company, including the need to attract, retain and motivate qualified executives and other personnel.

The Compensation Committee believes that our overall compensation practices for our executive officers, which include the following elements, limit the ability of executive officers to benefit from taking unnecessary or excessive risks:

| • | executive compensation that is heavily weighted toward fixed salaries;

| • | maximum payouts that limit the aggregate payout potential of cash incentive compensation;

| • | a strong alignment of risk management goals and incentive pay;

| • | balance between short-term and long-term incentive compensation opportunities; and

| • | the Company’s historical emphasis on character and integrity at all levels of the organization.

The Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed with management the Compensation Discussion and Analysis included in this proxy statement under the heading “Executive Compensation”.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The following report is for the Audit Committee’s activities regarding oversight of the Company’s financial reporting and auditing process for fiscal year 2020.

Members of the Audit Committee in 2020 were Joseph Ford, William Scott Martin, Robin Roberson and Gregory G. Wedel (Chairman). All of the Audit Committee members are “independent directors” as defined in the Marketplace Rules of The NASDAQ Global Market. Mr. Wedel has been designated as the audit committee financial expert by the Board. The Board has adopted an Audit Committee Charter, a copy of which is available on the Company’s website under Investor Relations. The composition of the Audit Committee, the attributes of its members and the responsibilities of the Audit Committee, as reflected in its charter, are intended to be in accordance with applicable requirements for corporate audit committees.

As described more fully in its charter, the purpose of the Audit Committee is to assist the Board in its general oversight of the Company’s financial reporting, internal control and audit functions. Management is responsible for the preparation, presentation and integrity of the Company’s financial statements, accounting and financial reporting principles, internal controls and procedures designed to ensure compliance with accounting standards, applicable laws and regulations. The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for expressing an opinion on the conformity of the Company’s audited financial statements to generally accepted accounting principles.

The Audit Committee is not intended to duplicate or to certify the activities of management and the independent registered public accounting firm, nor can the Audit Committee certify that the independent registered public accounting firm is “independent” under applicable rules. The Audit Committee serves a board-level oversight role, in which it provides advice, counsel and direction to management and the independent registered public accounting firm on the basis of the information it receives, discussions with management and the auditor, and the experience of the Audit Committee’s members in business, financial and accounting matters.

Among other matters, the Audit Committee monitors the activities and performance of the Company’s internal auditors and independent registered public accounting firm, including the audit scope, external audit fees, auditor independence matters and the extent to which the independent registered public accounting firm may be retained to perform non-audit services. The Audit Committee and the Board have ultimate authority and responsibility to select, evaluate and, when appropriate, replace the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee also reviews the results of the internal and external audit work with regard to the adequacy and appropriateness of the Company’s financial, accounting and internal controls. Management’s and the independent registered public accounting firm’s presentations to, and discussions with, the Audit Committee also cover various topics and events that may have significant financial impact or are the subject of discussions between management and the independent registered public accounting firm. In addition, the Audit Committee generally oversees the Company’s internal compliance programs.

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the consolidated financial statements with management and the independent registered public accounting firm. Management represented to the Audit Committee that the Company’s consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and the independent registered public accounting firm represented

22

that its presentations to the Audit Committee included the matters required to be discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and the S ecurities and E xchange C ommission.

The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm also provided the Audit Committee with the formal written statement and the letter required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent accountant’s communications with the audit committee concerning independence, and has discussed with the independent accountant the independent accountant’s independence. The Audit Committee discussed with the auditors any relationships that may have an impact on their objectivity and independence and satisfied itself as to the auditors’ independence.

Following the Audit Committee’s discussions with management and the independent registered public accounting firm, the Audit Committee recommended that the Board of Directors include the audited consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PERSONS

BancFirst and Pegasus have made loans in the ordinary course of business to certain directors and executive officers of the Company and to certain affiliates of these directors and executive officers. None of these loans outstanding are classified as nonaccrual, past due, restructured or potential problem loans. All such loans were made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable loans made to persons not related to the Company, and did not involve more than the normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features.

The Company has adopted written policies to implement the requirements of Regulation O of the Federal Reserve Board, which restricts the extension of credit to directors and executive officers and their family members and other related interests. Under these policies, extensions of credit that exceed regulatory thresholds must be approved by the Board of Directors of BancFirst. All other transactions involving the Company in which a director or executive officer or immediate family member may have a direct or indirect material interest are required to be approved by the Audit Committee.

A son of David E. Rainbolt, Executive Chairman, is employed by the Company’s commercial property and casualty insurance agency subsidiary as a licensed agent. His total compensation for 2020, which is based on a standard commission schedule, was $343,533. Since it is solely commission-based, this compensation will vary from year to year.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Throughout this section, unless the context indicates otherwise, when we use the terms “we,” “our” or “us,” we are referring to BancFirst Corporation and its subsidiaries, BancFirst and Pegasus.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis describes the compensation for the named executive officers in the Summary Compensation Table and for our executive officers generally. SEC regulations require us to include our Chief Executive Officer, David R. Harlow (CEO), and our Chief Financial Officer, Kevin Lawrence (CFO), as named executive officers. In addition, these regulations require us to include the three most highly compensated executive officers in 2020 other than the CEO and CFO. In addition to Messrs. Harlow

24

and Lawrence, our named executive officers are David E. Rainbolt, our Executive Chairman, Dennis L. Brand, a Vice Chairman, and Darryl W. Schmidt, the CEO of our subsidiary bank, BancFirst.

Objectives of our Compensation Program

Overview

Our primary mission is to create long-term value for our shareholders consistent with our commitment to maintain the safety and soundness of the Company, BancFirst and Pegasus. To accomplish this, we believe that we must provide competitive salaries and appropriate incentives to achieve long-term shareholder return. Our executive compensation practices are designed to achieve four primary objectives:

| • | attract and retain qualified executives who will lead us and inspire superior performance;

| • | provide incentives for achievement of corporate goals and individual performance;

| • | provide incentives for achievement of long-term shareholder return; and

| • | align the interests of management and employees with those of the shareholders to encourage continuing increases in shareholder value.

Our goal is to effectively balance base salaries with short-term incentive compensation that is performance-based, and long-term compensation awards that are commensurate with an officer’s individual management responsibilities and potential for future contribution to corporate objectives. The portion of total compensation that is based on corporate performance and long-term shareholder return increases as an executive’s responsibilities increase.

The Compensation Committee of our Board is responsible for reviewing and recommending to the full Board of Directors for approval, our overall compensation and benefit programs in consultation with David E. Rainbolt, our Executive Chairman, and for determining the compensation of David R. Harlow, the Chief Executive Officer of BancFirst Corporation, and Darryl W. Schmidt, the Chief Executive Officer of our subsidiary bank, BancFirst. The Executive Chairman makes recommendations to the committee concerning his own compensation, but the Executive Chairman does not participate in the deliberations or decisions of the Compensation Committee concerning his compensation. Messrs. Harlow or Schmidt determines the compensation, including salary, performance-based incentive pay and other awards, for other executive officers, subject to the review of the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee currently consists of three directors, F. Ford Drummond, Joseph Ford and G. Rainey Williams, Jr. (Chairman), all of whom are independent under applicable NASDAQ and SEC standards.

Our Compensation Committee relies on various factors when reviewing and evaluating our executive compensation policies, the performance of our named executive officers and the establishment of appropriate compensation levels and programs for such officers. These factors include an executive’s individual performance and contributions to our strategic objectives, recommendations from the Executive Chairman, internal pay equity and the results of our 2020 “say-on-pay” vote, in which the advisory vote on our executive compensation program was approved with approximately 95% of the votes cast in favor of the resolution. The Compensation Committee also considers the performance of the management team as a group, the Executive Chairman’s assessment of other executives’ individual performance and the Executive Chairman’s compensation recommendations with respect to the other executive officers as part of its process. The Compensation Committee considered all of these factors, including the 2020 “say-on-pay” vote result, as it evaluated whether any changes to our executive compensation program were warranted and it determined that no changes were warranted at that time.

Executive Participation in Committee Discussions

The executive officers who participate in the Compensation Committee’s compensation-setting process are the Executive Chairman and the Senior Vice President for Human Resources. Executive participation is meant to provide the Compensation Committee with input regarding our compensation philosophy, process and decisions. In addition to providing factual information such as Company-wide performance on relevant measures, these executives articulate management’s views on current compensation programs and processes, recommend relevant performance measures to be used for future awards, and otherwise supply information to assist the Compensation Committee. The Executive Chairman also provides information about individual performance assessments for executive officers, and expresses to the Compensation Committee his view on the appropriate levels of compensation for such executive officers for the ensuing year. Additionally, the Executive Chairman discusses and reviews the alignment between our risk management policies and practices and all of our employee incentive compensation arrangements, identifying and making efforts to limit any features in such compensation arrangements that might lead to employees taking unnecessary or excessive risks that could threaten our value.

25

These two executives participate in Compensation C ommittee discussions purely in an informational and advisory capacity, but have no vote in the committee’s decision-making process. No executive officer other than the Executive Chairman and Senior Vice President for Human Resources attends those portions of Compensation Committee meetings during which the performance of the executive officers is evaluated or their compensation is being determined.

Executive Compensation Program

Our compensation structure primarily consists of the following components:

| • | base salary;

| • | performance-based incentive pay, which includes both profitability and risk management measurements;

| • | long-term award(s)—including stock option grants, supplemental executive retirement agreements and survivor benefit agreements; and

| • | benefits available to all employees, including a 401(k) plan and an employee stock ownership plan.

We consider market practices to achieve an overall compensation program that aims to provide a total compensation package for our executive officers that is generally competitive with the compensation paid to similarly situated executive and senior officers of comparable-sized financial institutions. We review the market practices by speaking to recruitment agencies and reviewing the data on financial institutions of similar size, growth potential and market area as reported in publicly available documents, such as proxy statements. We do not currently have a policy to recapture performance-based incentive pay or other compensation in the event that the metrics used to determine the compensation are later restated.

Base Salary

One of the objectives of our compensation program is to establish base salaries for executive officers that are competitive to those of comparable companies in our industry and our local market place. We believe that base salaries should be competitive to attract and retain talented senior management. We consult various sources to identify adequate and competitive base salary levels, including industry surveys, feedback from recruiters and information contained in publicly available documents. The base salary levels for David R. Harlow, the Chief Executive Officer of BancFirst Corporation, and Darryl W. Schmidt, the Chief Executive Officer of our subsidiary bank, BancFirst (together, the “CEOs”), are established annually by the Executive Chairman and submitted to the Compensation Committee for evaluation and recommendation to the full Board for approval. The Compensation Committee’s evaluation of the CEOs’ base salaries was based on the factors above, including the current financial performance of BancFirst as measured by earnings, asset growth, and overall financial soundness. Base salary for the other executive officers is established by Messrs. Harlow or Schmidt, and is submitted for review by the Compensation Committee. In setting base salaries, Messrs. Harlow or Schmidt consider the seniority and level of responsibility of each executive officer, taking into account competitive market compensation paid by other companies as described above. Salaries for executive officers are reviewed on an annual basis as well as at the time of a promotion or other change in level of responsibilities. Increases in base salary are based on the evaluation of factors such as the individual’s level of responsibility, performance and level of compensation. The salaries paid during fiscal year 2020 to our named executive officers are shown in the Summary Compensation Table.

Annual Performance-Based Incentive Pay

We believe that the payment of performance-based incentive compensation based on business and personal goals is important to focus our executive officers on the achievement of short-term corporate goals. Accordingly, all of our executive officers are eligible to receive an annual cash amount based on our performance-based incentive program. The performance-based incentive program is designed to reward our executive officers for the attainment of short-term business and/or personal performance goals that are established at the beginning of each fiscal year, and can be in amounts ranging from 10% to 25% of the executive officer’s base salary. Performance-based incentive compensation for the CEOs is recommended by our Executive Chairman, subject to review and approval by the Compensation Committee. Performance-based incentive compensation for our other executive officers is established by Messrs. Harlow or Schmidt, subject to review and approval by the Compensation Committee. Messrs. Harlow or Schmidt and the Compensation Committee use judgment and discretion taking into account the business and economic environment, our overall performance, budgetary considerations, each executive officer’s performance in relation to the goals set for him or her, competitive factors within the industry, and retention of key executives.

Annual incentive payments under the plan for a particular year with respect to executive officers who are in bank senior management are based on a combination of financial and individual performance criteria established before the beginning of the year. Such performance criteria generally will vary depending on the executive officer’s authority. Thus, for example, for those executive officers

26

having authority or responsibility over the entire company, the performance criteria includes the attainment, on a C ompany-wide basis, of budgeted earnings, budgeted levels of classified assets, results of our internal operational audit s and results of regulatory compliance audits. For executive officers having line authority over a particular group of branches, such as Regional Executives, the performance criteria includes the attainment of these same objectives, but only with respect to the particular branches over which the executive officer has responsibility. For executive officers having responsibility over various corporate administrative functions, annual incentive payments are based primarily on the attainment of individual performance objectives negotiated at the beginning of the year. Attainment of individual performance objectives is based on a subjective evaluation of each individual officer’s performance. An executive officer’s potential cash incentive payment depends upon two factor s: (x) the executive’s position, which establishes a maximum cash incentive award as a percent of base salary and (y) the extent to which the performance criteria have been achieved, with the concurrence of Messrs. Harlow or Schmidt and the Compensation Committee. Whenever the specified performance criteria are not fully met, the Executive Chairman and the Compensation Committee determine the amount of incentive compensation paid, if any, based on their subjective evaluation of the extent to which the criteria were met and other factors. The Compensation Committee conducts an evaluation of the CEOs’ individual performance s and determines the appropriate amount of performance-based incentive pay.

The payment of performance-based incentive compensation generally occurs in December of each year in respect of achievements of the fiscal year then ending. For 2020, each of the named executive officers was eligible for performance-based incentive compensation from 10% to 20% of the respective executive’s base salary. As discussed in detail below, each of the named executive officers received the maximum performance-based incentive compensation totaling 20% of his base salary.

Mr. Harlow

For 2020, Mr. Harlow was eligible for a bonus of up to 20% of his base salary, based upon budgeted pre-tax income and budgeted classified assets for our subsidiary, BancFirst, and the results of the internal audits of BancFirst’s branches, all determined on a Company-wide basis. Each of these factors was weighted, as indicated in the following table:

Objectives for 2020 |  |  | Maximum Percentage of Base Salary |  |  | 2020 Goal |  |  | Actual 2020 Performance |
Budgeted pre-tax income for BancFirst |  |  | 9.00% |  |  | $ | 177,028,000 |  |  | $ | 164,405,000 |
Budgeted classified assets for BancFirst |  |  | 9.00% |  |  |  | (1 | ) |  |  | (1 | )
Internal audit |  |  | 2.00% |  |  |  | (2 | ) |  |  | (2 | )

(1) | Federal and state banking regulations prohibit us from disclosing information contained in regulatory agency examination reports, such as amounts of classified assets.

(2) | Branches are assigned internal scores from 1 to 5, with 1 being the best, based on results of regulatory compliance audits as well as management’s subjective assessment of each branch’s performance in certain other categories, such as information technology, trust and insurance services. The goal is to receive an average score between 1 and 1.50. The maximum incentive compensation of 2% available for the internal audit metric was based on an average score of 1.37, calculated by dividing the total of the scores for all branches by the total number of bank branches.

The budgeted pretax income goal was not attained. The budgeted classified assets goal and internal audit goal were fully attained. Accordingly, the Executive Chairman recommended that the Compensation Committee adopt his determination that Mr. Harlow be paid a partial attainment bonus amount, which resulted in Mr. Harlow receiving a total cash incentive bonus for 2020 equal to 15.5% of his base salary.

Mr. Schmidt

For 2020, Mr. Schmidt was eligible for a bonus of up to 20% of his base salary, based upon budgeted pre-tax income and budgeted classified assets for our subsidiary, BancFirst, and the results of the internal audits of the BancFirst’s branches, all determined on a Company-wide basis. Each of these factors was weighted, as indicated in the following table:

Objectives for 2020 |  |  | Maximum Percentage of Base Salary |  |  | 2020 Goal |  |  | Actual 2020 Performance |
Budgeted pre-tax income for BancFirst |  |  | 9.00% |  |  | $ | 177,028,000 |  |  | $ | 164,405,000 |
Budgeted classified assets for BancFirst |  |  | 9.00% |  |  |  | (1 | ) |  |  | (1 | )
Internal audit |  |  | 2.00% |  |  |  | (2 | ) |  |  | (2 | )

(1) | Federal and state banking regulations prohibit us from disclosing information contained in regulatory agency examination reports, such as amounts of classified assets.

(2) | Branches are assigned internal scores from 1 to 5, with 1 being the best, based on results of regulatory compliance audits as well as management’s subjective assessment of each branch’s performance in certain other categories, such as information technology,

27

| trust and insurance services. The goal is to receive an average score between 1 and 1.50. The maximum incentive compensation of 2% available for the internal audit metric was based on an average score of 1.3 7, calculated by dividing the total of the scores for all branches by the total number of bank branches.

The budgeted pretax income goal was not attained. The budgeted classified assets goal and internal audit goal were fully attained. Accordingly, the Executive Chairman recommended that the Compensation Committee adopt his determination that Mr. Schmidt be paid a partial attainment bonus amount, which resulted in Mr. Schmidt receiving a total cash incentive bonus for 2020 equal to 15.5% of his base salary.

Mr. Lawrence

For 2020, Mr. Lawrence was eligible for a bonus of up to 20% of his base salary. The 2020 performance objectives for Mr. Lawrence included overall financial performance, strategic and operational objectives in connection with Mr. Lawrence’s role throughout the year as Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Lawrence’s performance objectives for 2020 included the following:

| • | Ensuring the integrity and timeliness of financial and regulatory reporting;

| • | Continuing to monitor actual financial performance as compared to budget;

| • | Overseeing and monitoring our tax credit investments;

| • | Evaluating and appropriately managing finance and accounting organizational structure, systems, workflow and staffing requirements;

| • | Managing the budgeting and forecasting process;

| • | Overseeing our capital plan, including monitoring capital levels and recommending appropriate adjustments as needed; and

| • | Financial Performance.

In reviewing Mr. Lawrence’s attainment of those objectives, Mr. Harlow made a subjective determination that Mr. Lawrence was generally successful in achieving the objectives set for him. However, considering, that the Company’s pretax income goal was not attained, Mr. Harlow recommended that the Compensation Committee adopt his determination that Mr. Lawrence be paid a partial attainment bonus, which resulted in Mr. Lawrence receiving a total cash incentive bonus for 2020 equal to 17.5% of his base salary.

Mr. Rainbolt

For 2020, Mr. Rainbolt was eligible for a bonus up to 20% of his base salary, based upon budgeted pre-tax income and budgeted classified assets for our subsidiary, BancFirst, and the results of the internal audits of the BancFirst’s branches, all determined on a Company-wide basis. Each of these factors was weighted, as indicated in the following table:

Objectives for 2020 |  |  | Maximum Percentage of Base Salary |  |  | 2020 Goal |  |  | Actual 2020 Performance |
Budgeted pre-tax income for BancFirst |  |  | 9.00% |  |  | $ | 177,028,000 |  |  | $ | 164,405,000 |
Budgeted classified assets for BancFirst |  |  | 9.00% |  |  |  | (1 | ) |  |  | (1 | )
Internal audit |  |  | 2.00% |  |  |  | (2 | ) |  |  | (2 | )

Accordingly, the Executive Chairman recommended that the Compensation Committee adopt his determination that he be paid a partial attainment bonus amount, which resulted in Mr. Rainbolt receiving a total cash incentive bonus for 2020 equal to 15.5% of his base salary.

28

Mr. Brand

For 2020, Mr. Brand was eligible for a bonus up to 20% of his base salary, based upon budgeted pre-tax income and budgeted classified assets for our subsidiary, BancFirst, and the results of the internal audit of the BancFirst’s branches, all determined on a Company-wide basis. Each of these factors was weighted, as indicated in the following table:

Objectives for 2020 |  |  | Maximum Percentage of Base Salary |  |  | 2020 Goal |  |  | Actual 2020 Performance |
Budgeted pre-tax income for BancFirst |  |  | 9.00% |  |  | $ | 177,028,000 |  |  | $ | 164,405,000 |

Long-Term Awards

Stock Option Grants

Executive officers receive equity compensation awards in the form of nonqualified incentive stock options under the Employee Plan. The stock options are designed to align the interests of the executive officers with the shareholders’ long-term interests by providing them with equity awards that generally are exercisable beginning four years from the date of grant at the rate of 25% per year for four years. Historically, the Company has not granted equity awards to the same degree as its peers; typically, option grants have been made either as an employment incentive in connection with the Company’s efforts to employ an executive officer, as a retention device or to focus executive officers on the achievement of long-term corporate goals. The Employee Plan was adopted by the Board in 1986 and has been amended several times since its adoption to increase the number of shares issuable under the plan and to extend the term of the plan, which currently extends to December 31, 2024. The Company does not have stock ownership guidelines for its directors or executive officers. Given the Executive Chairman’s significant existing stock ownership in the Company, he has recommended to the Compensation Committee that he not be granted any additional stock options. Awards granted to our other executive officers are recommended by our Executive Committee and ratified by the full Board.

All stock options granted under the Employee Plan are made at the market price at the time of the award. The Company has never granted stock options with an exercise price that is less than the closing price of the Company’s common stock as reported by NASDAQ on the grant date, nor has it granted stock options which were priced on a date other than the grant date. The long-term incentive award information for the Company’s named executive officers during fiscal year 2020 is included in “— Executive Compensation—Option Grants in Last Fiscal Year” and additional information on the option awards is shown in “—Executive Compensation—Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End.”

Supplemental Executive Retirement Agreements

In 2007, the Company entered into supplemental retirement agreements with a number of the Company’s executive officers designated by the Executive Chairman. These agreements seek to encourage the executive officers who are parties to such agreements to remain employed with the Company. Under the terms of the agreements, which were approved by the Compensation Committee, the signatory executive officer will receive a specified annual benefit paid in monthly installments for a specified number of years, typically 10 years, after retirement at age 65. If the executive officer’s employment is terminated by the Company for cause or by reason of voluntary early retirement, the executive officer will not receive any benefits under the agreement. The agreements also provide for specified benefits (generally, the discounted present value of the income stream) in the event of a change-in-control or involuntary early retirement. For details regarding the terms and payments under the supplemental retirement agreements for David R. Harlow and Darryl W. Schmidt, the only named executive officers receiving such a benefit, see “—Executive Compensation—Potential Payments on Termination or Change-in-Control.”

29

Survivor Benefit Agreements

The Company has also entered into survivor benefit agreements with a number of the Company’s executive officers designated by the Executive Chairman. In connection with these agreements, the Company purchased life insurance policies with respect to the relevant individuals. Under these agreements, the Company owns the insurance policies, is entitled to the cash value of the policies and is responsible for paying the associated premiums. Upon the executive officer’s death while still employed with the Company, a beneficiary selected by the executive officer is entitled to a specified amount of the death benefit under the policy. The survivor benefit agreement and any benefit from it terminates upon the executive officer’s termination of employment for any reason, including retirement or disability. David R. Harlow and Darryl W. Schmidt are the only named executive officers who participated in this benefit. The value of the benefit is included as one of the components of compensation reported in “Summary Compensation Table – All Other Compensation.”

Benefits Available to All Employees

The Company maintains a 401(k) employee savings and retirement plan, as well as an employee stock ownership plan (“ESOP”), both of which are broad-based plans covering all full-time employees, including the Company’s executive officers, who have attained the age of 21 years and who have completed six months of employment during the year. The Company’s matching contribution to the 401(k) plan equals 50% of the first 6% of pay that is contributed by a participating employee to the plan. Benefits under the ESOP are based solely on the amount contributed by the Company, which is used to purchase the Company’s common stock. A participant’s allocation is the contribution percentage approved by the Board multiplied by the participant’s eligible compensation for that year. The total amount contributed by the Company to the ESOP for 2020 was $3,689,000, and the total amount contributed by the Company to the 401(k) plan for 2020 was $2,986,000. The contribution to the ESOP is based primarily on profits of the Company, but any contribution to the ESOP is within the sole discretion of the Board and there are no specific performance measures set forth in the ESOP. The Company’s contribution to these plans in 2020 is included as one of the components of compensation reported in “Summary Compensation Table – All Other Compensation.”

The Company offers group health and dental benefits to all full-time employees. A specified amount of the premium is paid by the Company for all participating employees, and the employees pay the additional amount of the premium for their respective level of coverage. The Company also provides fully-paid group term life insurance and long-term disability insurance to all full-time employees. The benefits under these group plans are based in part on the annual salaries of the employees.

Perquisites

The Company generally limits perquisites that it makes available to executive officers to those that are available to all employees or are required for their efficient conduct of Company business. Three of the five named executive officers are furnished Company-owned automobiles. Certain of the named executive officers and other executive officers are also provided with club memberships and are reimbursed for cell phones. Pursuant to the Company’s Aircraft Policy, the named executive officers and other management employees are provided use of the Company’s aircraft for business purposes. Generally, no named executive officer is provided use of the Company aircraft for personal travel. Pursuant to the Aircraft Policy, any such personal use is fully charged against the individual, at a rate of $650 per flight hour plus pilot expenses. The Company aircraft is owned jointly by BancFirst and an entity affiliated with H.E. Rainbolt and David E. Rainbolt, whose personal use of the Company aircraft is governed by the terms of a Joint Ownership Agreement. Information on the perquisites received by the named executive officers is included in “Summary Compensation Table – All Other Compensation.”

Employment Arrangements

The Company does not have written employment arrangements with any of the named executive officers or any other executive officer.

Deductibility of Named Executive Officers Compensation

The qualifying compensation regulations issued by the Internal Revenue Service under Internal Revenue Code section 162(m) provide that no deduction is allowed for applicable employee remuneration paid by a publicly held corporation to a covered employee to the extent that the remuneration exceeds $1.0 million for the applicable taxable year, unless specified conditions are satisfied. The fair value of option awards listed in the summary compensation table does not count towards the $1.0 million remuneration. Proceeds from the exercise of options that were granted on or after June 24, 2011 count towards the $1 million remuneration. Currently, remuneration is not expected to exceed $1.0 million for any employee. Therefore, the Company does not expect that compensation will be affected by the qualifying compensation regulations.

Supplemental Retirement Benefits

The table below shows the present value of accumulated benefit payable to David R. Harlow and Darryl W. Schmidt under the Supplemental Executive Retirement Agreement dated November 15, 2006. None of the other named executive officers are covered by a supplemental retirement agreement. The number of years of credited service for Messrs. Harlow and Schmidt is their total years of service with the Company. The present value of accumulated benefit payable to Messrs. Harlow and Schmidt was determined using a retirement age of 65 and a discount rate of 6%.

Name |  | Plan Name |  | Number of Years of Credited Service (#) |  |  | Present Value of Accumulated Benefit ($) |  |  | Payments During Last Fiscal Year ($) |
David R. Harlow |  | Supplemental Executive Retirement Agreement |  |  | 21.3 |  |  | $ | 351,761 |  |  |  | — |
Darryl W. Schmidt |  | Supplemental Executive Retirement Agreement |  |  | 17.6 |  |  | $ | 348,636 |  |  |  | — |

Under the terms of the Supplemental Executive Retirement Agreement, if Messrs. Harlow or Schmidt remains continually employed with BancFirst until age 65, Mr. Harlow and Mr. Schmidt will be entitled to a supplemental retirement benefit of $100,000 per year for ten years, irrespective of whether they then retire or continue to be employed by BancFirst beyond age 65. If Messrs. Harlow or Schmidt dies during the ten-year period, their surviving spouse or other designated beneficiary will receive the remaining payments over the remainder of the ten-year period. A lump-sum distribution, equal to the discounted present value of the aggregate supplemental payments, is payable upon separation from service following a change of control of BancFirst or if Messrs. Harlow or Schmidt is terminated without cause between the ages of 59 and 65. No benefits are payable under the agreement if Messrs. Harlow or Schmidt (i) ceases to be employed by BancFirst for any reason (other than death) prior to reaching age 59 or (ii) is terminated by BancFirst for “cause,” as such term is defined in the agreement, prior to reaching age 65. If Messrs. Harlow or Schmidt dies before age 65 while still employed with BancFirst, his surviving spouse or other designated beneficiary will receive a lump sum distribution equal to a percentage of the total lump sum amount of Messrs. Harlow or Schmidt’s supplemental retirement income, calculated on the percentage that the total number of months between the effective date of the agreement and the executive’s death represents the total months between the effective date of the agreement and the date the executive would have reached age 65. Messrs. Harlow or Schmidt will forfeit any non-distributed benefits payable under the agreement if he violates certain non-compete and confidentiality restrictions in the agreement.

Potential Payments upon Termination or Change-in-Control

Except for the Supplemental Executive Retirement Agreement of David R. Harlow and Darryl W. Schmidt described above, the Company has no agreements with any other named executive officer providing for potential payments upon termination of employment or a change-in-control of the Company.

Pay Ratio Disclosure

The SEC requires us to disclose the ratio of the annual total compensation of our CEO, David R. Harlow, to the median employee’s annual total compensation. As shown in the Summary Compensation Table, Mr. Harlow’s annual total compensation for 2020 was $1,451,109 and the median employee’s annual total compensation was $41,811. Based upon this information, the ratio of the annual total compensation of Mr. Harlow to the median employee was 35 to 1.

As permitted under the SEC rules, we are using the same median employee for our 2020 Pay Ratio as we used for our 2019 Pay Ratio. In identifying our median employee, we examined our entire employee population as of December 31, 2019. We calculated the ratio based on total employees of 1,948 at December 31, 2019, which compares to total employees of 2,036 at December 31, 2020. Our

33

median employee was determined by reviewing wages, tips and other compensation on payroll records for our employee population, as reported to the IRS on Form W-2.

The pay ratio identified above is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with SEC rules. Pay ratios that are reported by our peers may not be directly comparable to ours because of differences in the composition of each company’s workforce, as well as the assumptions and methodologies used in calculating the pay ratio, as permitted by SEC rules.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

The Company provides the following elements of compensation for its non-employee directors, each of whom is also a director of BancFirst:

| • | A retainer of $1,500 per quarter to each non-employee director for serving on the Board.

| • | A retainer of $1,500 per month to each non-employee director for serving on the BancFirst Board of Directors.

| • | A retainer of $1,500 per month to each member of the Audit Committee.

| • | A retainer of $5,000 per quarter to the chairman of the Audit Committee.

| • | A fee of $1,500 per meeting to each member of the Compensation Committee.

| • | A fee of $12,500 per quarter to the Lead Independent Director.

| • | A grant of 10,000 options to each non-employee director at the time of their initial appointment or election to the Board.

The Company pays employee directors each a retainer of $500 per quarter for their services as directors.

The option grants are provided under the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan and are exercisable at the rate of 25% per year beginning one year from the date of grant. If a director is terminated for cause, all options will be forfeited immediately. If a director ceases to be member of the Board for any other reason, unvested options will terminate and only previously vested options may be exercised for a period of 30 days following termination (or 12 months in the case of termination on account of death).

Non-employee directors can elect to defer all or any portion of their cash compensation through the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan. Under the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan, directors of the Company and members of the community advisory boards of BancFirst may defer up to 100% of their Board fees. They are credited for each deferral with a number of stock units based on the current market price of the Company’s stock, which accumulate in an account until such time as the director or community board member terminates service as a Board member. Shares of the Company’s common stock are then distributed to the terminating director or community board member based upon the number of stock units accumulated in his or her account. Because stock units are not actual shares of the Company’s common stock, they do not have any voting rights.

Additionally, non-employee directors may be reimbursed for their expenses in connection with attending Board meetings.
