<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On July&nbsp;15, 2008, and July&nbsp;31, 2008, Emerald Bank (the &#147;Bank&#148;), a wholly owned subsidiary of
Middlefield Banc Corp., received regulatory approval from the Ohio Division of Financial
Institutions and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, respectively, for the previously
announced acquisition of The Commercial Savings Bank&#146;s (&#147;Commercial&#148;) branch office located at 17
N. State Street, Westerville, Ohio, 43081 (the &#147;Westerville Branch&#148;). This transaction will result
in the Bank assuming approximately $6.5&nbsp;million of deposits from Commercial. The Bank will also
pay a 6% deposit premium, or approximately $390,000. The dollar amounts of the deposits are
subject to adjustment in the event that there are changes in deposit balances between the date the
parties entered into the May&nbsp;12, 2008 Purchase and Assumption Agreement (the &#147;Agreement&#148;) and the
closing of the transaction. The acquisition of the Westerville Branch is expected to close in the
third quarter of 2008, subject to the satisfaction of certain other closing conditions set forth in
the Agreement.
