Middlefield Banc Corp. (“Middlefield”), an Ohio corporation, hereby grants Restricted Stock in accordance with Article 7 of Middlefield’s 2007 Omnibus Equity Plan to                      (the “Participant”), subject to the terms and conditions of this Restricted Stock Award Agreement. Terms that are defined in the 2007 Omnibus Equity Plan are used in this Restricted Stock Award Agreement as they are defined in the 2007 Omnibus Equity Plan.

1. Number of Shares of Restricted Stock Subject to the Award. The number of shares of Middlefield common stock awarded under this Restricted Stock Award Agreement is                      shares, which for purposes of this Restricted Stock Award Agreement shall be deemed also to include any shares issuable after the effective date of this Restricted Stock Award Agreement as a stock dividend or stock split or issuable because of another form of change in the capital structure of Middlefield and relating to the shares of common stock awarded under this Restricted Stock Award Agreement.

2. Effective Date of the Award. The date of this Award and the effective date of this Restricted Stock Award Agreement is February 13, 2017.

3. The Award is Conditional and is Subject to Forfeiture. The only condition to unrestricted ownership of the shares awarded by this Restricted Stock Award Agreement that must be satisfied by the Participant is that the Participant must maintain continuous employment with Middlefield or a Related Entity for sixty (60) days after the effective date. Until the end of that sixty day period the Restricted Stock awarded by this Restricted Stock Award Agreement shall be held by Middlefield as escrow agent and shall be considered unvested. If the Participant maintains continuous employment with Middlefield or a Related Entity until sixty days after the effective date of this Restricted Stock Award Agreement, the Award shall become fully vested and non-forfeitable and the Participant thereafter shall possess all right, title, and interest in and to the shares. If the Participant does not maintain continuous employment with Middlefield or a Related Entity until sixty days from the effective date of this Restricted Stock Award Agreement, whether because of voluntary or involuntary termination, termination because of disability, or death, the Award shall be forfeited in its entirety by the Participant effective as of the date the Participant’s employment terminates, unless in its sole discretion the Plan Committee elects to accelerate the Participant’s vesting in and right to all or a portion of the Award when the Participant’s employment terminates. However, if a Change in Control occurs prior to sixty days from the effective date of this Restricted Stock Award Agreement and if the Participant maintains continuous employment with Middlefield or a Related Entity through the date of the Change in Control, on the date of the Change in Control the Award shall become fully vested and non-forfeitable and the Participant thereafter shall possess all right, title, and interest in and to the shares.

4. The Shares of Restricted Stock Subject to the Award Are Not Transferable as Long as the Award Is Subject to Forfeiture. Until the shares of Restricted Stock subject to the Award become vested and non-forfeitable in accordance with section 3, the Participant shall not be permitted to sell, transfer, pledge, assign, or otherwise alienate or hypothecate any of the shares or any interest in the shares. Until that time, Middlefield shall be entitled to disregard any attempt by the Participant to sell, transfer, pledge, assign, or otherwise alienate or hypothecate any of the shares or any interest in the shares, and any such sale, transfer, pledge, assignment, or other alienation or hypothecation shall be void and of no force or effect.

5. Rights as a Stockholder. Except as may be otherwise provided in this Restricted Stock Award Agreement, as the record holder of the shares of Restricted Stock subject to the Award the Participant shall have all of the associated rights of stockholder under Ohio law and Middlefield’s Articles of Incorporation and Code of Regulations, including the right to exercise voting power and the right to cash dividends if, as, and when declared by Middlefield’s board of directors.
