Item 5.02    Departure of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.


On March 21, 2018, MVB Financial Corp. (the “Company”) issued restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to certain of the Company’s named executive officers, which RSU awards were approved by the Company’s Board of Directors and were issued pursuant to the MVB Financial Corp. 2013 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2013 Plan”).

The RSUs awards include (i) time-based RSUs, which will vest in one installment at the end of five years from the grant date, assuming continued employment with the Company, (ii) performance-based RSUs based on total shareholder return (“TSR”), which will vest in one installment at the end of three years (“TSR Vested RSUs”), (iii) performance-based RSUs based on the Company’s achievement of certain absolute return on assets (“ROA”), which vest in one installment at the end of three years (“ROA Vested RSUs”). TSR will be assessed against the Company’s compensation peer group in use at the time of grant. ROA will be assessed against internal goals established by the Company.

The following table sets forth the RSUs awarded to the Company’s named executive officers identified below:

With respect to TSR Vested RSUs, TSR for the Company during the entire 3-year vesting period must meet the 50th percentile in order to receive, upon vesting, one share of common stock per TSR Vested RSU. If TSR meets or exceeds the 75th percentile of the peer group during the entire 3-year period, the number of shares of common stock awarded upon vesting will equal 150% of one share of common stock per TSR Vested RSU. If TSR exceeds the 50th percentile of the peer group, but is less than 75th percentile, the number of shares of common stock awarded upon vesting will be calculated on a prorated basis. If TSR is below the 50th percentile, no award will be granted.

With respect to ROA Vested RSUs, ROA for the Company in the third year of the 3-year vesting period must equal 1.0% in order to receive, upon vesting, one share of common stock per ROA Vested RSU. If ROA is equal to or greater than 1.15% in the third year of the 3-year period, the number of shares of common stock awarded upon vesting will equal 150% of one share of common stock per ROA Vested RSU. If ROA exceeds 1.0%, but is less than 1.15%, the number of shares of common stock awarded upon vesting will be calculated on a prorated basis. If ROA is below 1.0%, no award will be granted.

The complete terms and conditions of the RSU awards are set forth in the 2013 Plan previously filed as Exhibit 10.2 to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 8, 2018 and the form of Restricted Stock Unit Grant Notice and Restricted Stock Unit Agreement filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and are qualified in their entirety by reference thereto.
