traditionally been separate at Middlefield. Middlefield believes that separation of these two offices is consistent with the board&#146;s responsibility for oversight of management and of Middlefield&#146;s affairs generally. Moreover, the board
recognizes the time, effort, and energy that the Chief Executive Officer and President is required to devote to his position, as well as the commitment required to serve as Middlefield&#146;s Chairman of the Board. The board believes that having an
independent outside director serve as Middlefield&#146;s Chairman of the Board is the appropriate leadership structure at this time and demonstrates Middlefield&#146;s commitment to good corporate governance. </FONT></P>

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Established by Middlefield Bank in 2003, but terminable by the board at any time, all employees are eligible to participate in the Annual Incentive Plan. Annual incentive payments under the plan for a
particular year are based on objective financial performance criteria established before the beginning of the year by the board based on the compensation committee&#146;s recommendations. To become entitled to an Annual Incentive Plan cash award for
2011 performance, Middlefield&#146;s executive officers had to cross several distinct plan thresholds, including satisfaction of a rolling-average return on equity goal and a net income goal. In future years, other financial performance measures
could be taken into account, such as return on average equity (&#147;ROAE&#148;), return on average assets (&#147;ROAA&#148;), loan growth, deposit growth, efficiency ratio, and net interest margin. The compensation committee also considers
objective individual performance goals. An employee&#146;s potential cash incentive payment under the Annual Incentive Plan depends upon two factors: (x)&nbsp;the employee&#146;s position, which establishes a maximum cash incentive award as a
percent of base salary, and (y)&nbsp;the extent to which the performance targets, such as targeted net income, and individual performance targets, are achieved. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

Middlefield is six or more, the directors must be classified into at least two classes, as nearly equal in number as possible and consisting of no fewer than three directors in each class, designated Class I, Class II, and if there are nine or more
directors, Class III. Currently, Class I of Middlefield&#146;s board consists of Directors Hummel, Jones, and McCaskey (whose terms expire at the 2014 annual meeting), Class II consists of Directors Coyne, Heslop, and Toth (whose terms expire at the

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"> birthday. Mr.&nbsp;Richard&nbsp;T. Coyne, Middlefield&#146;s Chairman of the Board, reached the mandatory retirement age of 75 during the fiscal year 2010. The board is concerned that Director
Coyne&#146;s retirement will disrupt the culture of collegiality and consensus that characterizes the board&#146;s operations. After extensive discussion, and at the recommendation of Middlefield&#146;s corporate governance and nominating committee,
the board voted on February&nbsp;13, 2012, to (i)&nbsp;waive the age 75 reelection limitation found in the corporate governance guidelines so that Director Coyne may stand for reelection to the board for one additional year only and
(ii)&nbsp;subject to Director Coyne&#146;s reelection at the 2012 annual meeting, reassign Director Coyne to Class III whose term ends at the 2013 annual meeting of shareholders. In reaching this decision, the board noted that continuity of
leadership would benefit Middlefield and its stockholders. At the same time, the board affirmed its support of the mandatory retirement age and reaffirmed all provisions in the corporate governance guidelines. The board&#146;s waiver applies solely
to Director Coyne and does not constitute a waiver of any future director obligation to comply with the age 75 reelection limitation found in Middlefield&#146;s corporate governance guidelines. </FONT></P>

Purchase Agreement between Middlefield and BOF, as described on pages 9-10 of this proxy statement, it is anticipated that Mr.&nbsp;Joseph&nbsp;J. Thomas will be BOF&#146;s nominee to the board and that he will be appointed to fill the vacancy in
Class II. Mr.&nbsp;Thomas would stand for election at Middlefield&#146;s 2013 annual meeting for a term consistent with Class II. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
