Middlefield Banc Corp director reports merger-related share disposition

Director Carolyn J. Turk reported disposing of 32,560 shares of Middlefield Banc Corp common stock in a transaction coded as a disposition to the issuer. This occurred on March 2, 2026, when Middlefield merged with and into Farmers National Banc Corp.

Under the merger agreement dated October 22, 2025, each Middlefield share outstanding immediately before the effective time of the merger was converted into the right to receive 2.6 shares of Farmers common stock, so Turk’s disposition reflects conversion of her Middlefield holdings into Farmers shares, rather than an open-market sale.
