Middlefield Banc Corp. Announces First Quarter 2011 Cash Dividend
MIDDLEFIELD, OHIO, February 15, 2011 ¨¨¨¨ Middlefield Banc Corp. (OTCQB:
MBCN) today announced that the company’s board of directors has declared a quarterly cash dividend
of $0.26 per common share payable on March 15, 2011, to shareholders of record on March 4, 2011.
This is equal to the cash dividend paid in the first quarter of last year.

the Form 8-K filed today announcing a reduction of $251,000 or $0.16 per share from the amounts
reported in its earlier Earnings Release on January 26th did not alter the decision of
the Board in making the declaration of the cash dividend. “Our financial plan for 2011 continues
to reflect strong earnings potential. We remain confident of our ability to generate returns
sufficient to reward our shareholders for their continued trust.”
