Item 8.01

Other Events.

On May 13, 2020, Middlefield Banc Corp. (the “Company”) held its annual meeting of shareholders (the “Meeting”). One of the proposals for the shareholders at the Meeting was to approve and adopt an amendment to the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the “Articles”) to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 10,000,000 to 20,000,000 (the “Amendment”). After the Meeting, the Company identified an inadvertent discrepancy related solely to the broker discretion with respect to the Amendment proposal in the Meeting’s proxy statement. The Amendment was in fact considered to be a routine proposal by the New York Stock Exchange. As a result, the Company will not file the Amendment with the Ohio Secretary of State and will continue to have 10,000,000 authorized shares of common stock. The Company will seek approval to amend its Articles to increase its authorized shares of common stock at a later date and subject to a new proxy statement.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
