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

(d) James M. Reynolds, President of Wilmington College, was appointed as a director at the Board of Directors’ meeting on January 21, 2014. At their April 22, 2014 meeting, the Board of Directors appointed Mr. Reynolds to serve on the Audit Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

(e) On April 22, 2014, at the NB&T Financial Group, Inc. 2014 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the shareholders approved the NB&T Financial Group, Inc. 2014 Equity Plan (the “2014 Equity Plan”). A total of 270,000 common shares may be issued pursuant to awards granted under the 2014 Plan. The 2014 Plan will terminate on January 21, 2024, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the terms of the 2014 Plan.

The 2014 Equity Plan provides that a nonqualified stock option to purchase 1,000 common shares of NB&T Financial Group, Inc. (“NBTF”) shall be granted to each non-employee director after such director’s first becoming a director and then after each annual meeting of shareholders. Such options will vest one third each year and must have an exercise price at least equal to the fair market value of NBTF common shares on the date of grant.

The 2014 Equity Plan also provides for the award of nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, restricted stock and stock appreciation rights to employees, including officers. The selection of employees for awards and the timing, terms and conditions of such awards are subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors of NBTF, upon recommendation of the Compensation Committee, subject to the requirement that options to employees must vest at least one third each year after the date of grant, and the exercise price must be at least equal to the fair market value of the common shares of NBTF on the date of grant.

The 2014 Equity Plan may be terminated, suspended or amended by the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee without shareholder approval except to the extent shareholder approval is required to satisfy certain securities laws or regulations, the Internal Revenue Code, or the rules of the applicable securities exchange, market or quotation system, or, without participant consent, to the extent that the termination, suspension or amendment would adversely affect any award already granted.

A copy of the 2014 Plan as amended is attached to this Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1.

On April 23, 2014, an option to acquire 1,000 common shares of NBTF was awarded to each non-employee director pursuant to the 2014 Plan. A copy of the form of award agreement approved by the Board of Directors for the grant of such options is attached to this Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.2.

The NB&T Financial Group, Inc. 2006 Equity Plan (the “2006 Equity Plan”) was terminated upon adoption of the 2014 Equity Plan, although such termination will not affect any stock options outstanding under the 2006 Equity Plan.
