BANCFIRST CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(1) DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting and reporting policies of BancFirst Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and general practice within the banking industry. A summary of significant accounting policies can be found in Note (1) to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BancFirst Corporation, Council Oak Partners, LLC, BancFirst Insurance Services, Inc., Pegasus Bank ("Pegasus"), Worthington National Bank ("Worthington") and BancFirst and its subsidiaries. The principal operating subsidiaries of BancFirst are Council Oak Investment Corporation, Council Oak Real Estate, Inc., BFTower, LLC, BFC-PNC LLC, and BancFirst Agency, Inc. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Assets held in a fiduciary or agency capacity are not assets of the Company and, accordingly, are not included in the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and notes are presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information and the instructions for Form 10-Q adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The information contained in the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in BancFirst Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, should be referred to in connection with these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements. Operating results for the interim periods disclosed herein are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year or any future period.

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements contained herein reflect all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to provide a fair statement of the financial position and results of operations of the Company for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature.

Reclassifications

Certain items in prior consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on previously reported cash flows, stockholders’ equity or comprehensive income.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States inherently involves the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the related disclosures. These estimates relate principally to the determination of the allowance for credit losses, income taxes, the fair value of financial instruments and the valuation of intangibles. Such estimates and assumptions may change over time and actual amounts realized may differ from those reported.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Standards Not Yet Adopted:

In March 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2022-02, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326).” ASU 2022-02 eliminates the TDR recognition and measurement guidance and, instead, requires that the Company evaluate, based on the accounting for loan modifications, whether the modification represents a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan. The Company has the option to apply a modified retrospective transition method, resulting in a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings when adopted. In addition, the update requires that the Company disclose current-period write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables. The current-period write-off amendment should be applied prospectively. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted; however the Company expects to adopt ASU 2022-02 on January 1, 2023. ASU No. 2022-02 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

(2) RECENT DEVELOPMENTS, INCLUDING MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS

On February 8, 2022, BancFirst Corporation acquired Worthington for an aggregate cash purchase price of $77.7 million. Worthington is chartered and regulated by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) with one banking location in Arlington, Texas, one in Colleyville, Texas and two in Fort Worth, Texas. At acquisition, Worthington had approximately $478 million in total assets, $257 million in loans and $430 million in deposits. Worthington will continue to operate under a separate charter and remain a separate subsidiary of BancFirst Corporation governed by its existing board of directors. BancFirst Corporation intends to provide an appropriate amount of capital or other support to increase Worthington’s ability to approve larger loans and allow Worthington to continue to grow earning assets. As a result of the acquisition, the Company recorded a core deposit intangible of approximately $5.9 million and goodwill of approximately $33.7 million. These fair value estimates are considered preliminary and are subject to change for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition as additional information becomes available. The effect of this acquisition was included in the consolidated financial statements of the Company from the date of acquisition forward. Pro forma information has not been presented because the acquisition did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The acquisition of Worthington complements the Company by expanding it's Texas presence in the Dallas-Fort Worth market.

On June 17, 2021, the Company completed a private placement, under Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, of $60 million aggregate principal amount of 3.50% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due

2036

(the “Subordinated Notes”) to various institutional accredited investors. See Note (7) of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a complete discussion of the Company’s subordinated debt.

On May 20, 2021, the Company purchased approximately $284 million in total assets, which included approximately $195 million in loans, and assumed approximately $256 million in deposits and certain other obligations, from The First National Bank and Trust Company of Vinita, Oklahoma for a purchase price of approximately $21 million. The Company recorded a bargain purchase gain related to this purchase of approximately $4.8 million, which was included in other noninterest income on the consolidated statement of comprehensive income and in other operating activities on the consolidated statement of cash flow. The bargain purchase gain is a noncash item on the consolidated statement of cash flow. In addition, the Company recorded expenses related to this purchase of approximately $4.8 million, which were included in noninterest expense. As a result of the purchase, the Company recorded a core deposit intangible of approximately $1.7 million. The effect of this purchase was included in the consolidated financial statement of the Company from the date of purchase forward. The purchase did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The First National Bank and Trust Company of Vinita was a nationally chartered bank with two banking locations in Vinita and Grove, Oklahoma.

On January 22, 2021, the Company sold approximately $21 million in loans and approximately $38 million in deposits from its Hugo, Oklahoma branch to AmeriState Bank in Atoka, Oklahoma. The Company recorded a gain on the transaction of $2.5 million, which is included in noninterest income in the first quarter of 2021.

The following is a detail of proceeds from sales and the realized losses on available for sale debt securities:

Six Months Ended June 30,
2022 2021
(Dollars in thousands)
Proceeds $ 222,473 $
Gross losses realized 3,990

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company sold $226 million of debt securities with an average yield of 0.16%, which were subsequently reinvested in $220 million of debt securities with an average yield of 1.86%. The Company used specific identification to reclassify the unrealized loss in other comprehensive income to a realized loss, as shown in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. There were no sales of debt securities and therefore no proceeds from sales or realized securities gains or losses on available for sale debt securities for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Realized gains/losses on debt and equity securities are reported as securities transactions within the noninterest income section of the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

The following table summarizes debt securities with unrealized losses, segregated by the duration of the unrealized loss, at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 respectively:

The Company has the ability and intent to hold the debt securities classified as held for investment until they mature, at which time the Company will receive full value for the debt securities. Furthermore, as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company also had the ability and intent to hold the debt securities classified as available for sale for a period of time sufficient for a recovery of cost. The unrealized losses are due to increases in market interest rates over the yields available at the time the underlying debt securities were purchased. The fair value of those debt securities having unrealized losses is expected to recover as the securities approach their maturity date or repricing date, or if market yields for such investments decline. The Company has no intent or requirement to sell before the recovery of the unrealized loss; therefore, no impairment loss was realized in the Company’s consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

(4) LOANS HELD FOR INVESTMENT AND ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES ON LOANS

Loans held for investment are summarized by portfolio segment as follows:

December 31, 2021

(1) Excludes accrued interest receivable of 23.3 million at June 30, 2022 and 21.0 million at December 31, 2021, that is recorded in accrued interest receivable and other assets.
(2) Includes PPP loans held for investment of 3.2 million, net of unamortized processing fees of 0, at June 30, 2022 and 80.4 million, net of unamortized processing fees of 2.0 million, at December 31, 2021.

All values are in US Dollars.

Loans that were designated as Other and consisted mainly of Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans were moved to their more descriptive portfolio segment. Therefore, we no longer have an Other loan portfolio segment.

In April 2020, the Company began originating loans to qualified small businesses under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) administered by the SBA. Since PPP loans are fully guaranteed by the SBA, there is no expected credit loss related to these loans. The Company had processing fees, which were recognized as interest income related to the PPP loans totaling approximately $400,000 and $11.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively and $2.1 million and $21.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

The Company's loans are currently 83% held by BancFirst and 17% held by Pegasus and Worthington. In addition, approximately 65% of the Company's loans are secured by real estate. Credit risk on loans is managed through limits on amounts loaned to individual and related borrowers, underwriting standards and loan monitoring procedures. The amounts and types of collateral obtained, if any, to secure loans are based upon the Company’s underwriting standards and management’s credit evaluation. Collateral varies, but may include real estate, equipment, accounts receivable, inventory, livestock and securities. The Company’s interest in collateral is secured through filing mortgages and liens, and in some cases, by possession of the collateral.

The Company's portfolio segment descriptions and the weighted average remaining life of portfolio segments are disclosed in Note (5) to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Troubled Debt Restructurings, Other Real Estate Owned and Repossessed Assets and Held for Sale Assets

The following is a summary of troubled debt restructurings and other real estate owned and repossessed assets:

June 30, 2022 December 31, 2021
(Dollars in thousands)
Troubled debt restructurings $ 2,174 $ 3,665
Other real estate owned and repossessed assets $ 39,209 $ 39,553

The Company charges interest on principal balances outstanding on troubled debt restructurings during deferral periods. The current and future financial effects of the recorded balance of loans considered to be troubled debt restructurings were not considered to be material.

Other real estate owned included a commercial real estate property recorded at approximately $29.7 million at June 30, 2022 and $29.5 million at December 31, 2021. At December 31, 2021, other real estate owned included approximately $2.4 million related to the Company's previous headquarters. The previous headquarters was sold during the second quarter of 2022.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company sold property held in other real estate owned for a total gain of $3.8 million, compared to a total loss of $105,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Nonaccrual loans

The Company did not recognize any interest income on nonaccrual loans for either of the six months ended June 30, 2022 or 2021. In addition, there were no nonaccrual loans for which there is no related allowance for credit losses at both June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Had nonaccrual loans performed in accordance with their original contractual terms, the Company would have recognized additional interest income of approximately $653,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and approximately $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Nonaccrual loans guaranteed by government agencies totaled approximately $2.2 million at June 30, 2022 and approximately $3.3 million at December 31, 2021.

Credit Quality Indicators

The Company considers credit quality indicators to monitor the credit risk in the loan portfolio including volume and severity of loan delinquencies, nonaccrual loans, internal grading of loans, historical credit loss experience and economic conditions. These indicators are reviewed and updated regularly throughout the year. An internal risk grading system is used to indicate the credit risk of loans. The loan grades used by the Company are for internal risk identification purposes and do not directly correlate to regulatory classification categories or any financial reporting definitions. The general characteristics of the risk grades and the table summarizing the Company’s gross loans held for investment by year of origination and internally assigned credit grades as of December 31, 2021, are disclosed in Note (5) to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

The Company’s revolving loans that are converted to term loans are not material and therefore have not been presented.

Allowance for Credit Losses Methodology

The Company determines its provision for credit losses and allowance for credit losses using the expected loss methodology that is referred to as the CECL model. The allowance for credit losses is measured on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist.

The increase in allowance for credit loss during 2022 was primarily related to the purchase of loans without credit deterioration during the year. The decrease in the allowance for credit loss during 2021 was driven by a reversal of a pandemic-related provision during 2021 based on sustained improvements in the economy, both nationally and in the Company's markets, which reduced the amount of expected credit loss within the loan portfolio. This reduction was partially offset by additional allowance for credit loss required for newly acquired loans. The allowance for credit loss for the oil and gas category was reduced due to the increases in oil and gas commodity prices contributing to a more stable and profitable energy industry; however this decrease was entirely offset by an increase in allowance for credit loss for the commercial real estate non-owner occupied category due to ongoing uncertainty regarding the pandemic's long-term impact on the office and retail sectors.

The following table details activity in the allowance for credit losses on loans for the period presented. Allocation of a portion of the allowance to one category of loans does not preclude its availability to absorb losses in other categories.

(7) SUBORDINATED DEBT

In January 2004, the Company established BFC Capital Trust II (“BFC II”), a trust formed under the Delaware Business Trust Act. The Company owns all of the common securities of BFC II. In February 2004, BFC II issued $25 million of aggregate liquidation amount of 7.20% Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities (the “Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities”) to other investors. In March 2004, BFC II issued an additional $1 million in Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities through the execution of an over-allotment option. The proceeds from the sale of the Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities and the common securities of BFC II were invested in $26.8 million of 7.20% Junior Subordinated Debentures of the Company. Interest payments on the $26.8 million of 7.20% Junior Subordinated Debentures are payable January 15, April 15, July 15 and October 15 of each year. Such interest payments may be deferred for up to twenty consecutive quarters. The stated maturity date of the $26.8 million of 7.20% Junior Subordinated Debentures is March 31, 2034, but they are subject to mandatory redemption pursuant to optional prepayment terms. The Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities represent an undivided interest in the $26.8 million of 7.20% Junior Subordinated Debentures and are guaranteed by the Company. During any deferral period or during any event of default, the Company may not declare or pay any dividends on any of its capital stock. The Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities were callable at par, in whole or in part, after March 31, 2009.

On June 17, 2021, the Company completed a private placement, under Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, of $60 million aggregate principal amount of 3.50% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due 2036 (the “Subordinated Notes”) to various institutional accredited investors. The sale of the Subordinated Notes was pursuant to a Subordinated Note Purchase Agreement entered into with each of the investors. The Subordinated Notes have been structured to qualify as Tier 2 capital under bank regulatory guidelines. The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the Subordinated Notes were approximately $59.15 million after deducting commissions and offering expenses of $850,000. The Company used the proceeds from the sale of the Subordinated Notes for general corporate purposes. The Subordinated Notes will initially bear interest at a fixed rate of 3.50% per annum, from and including June 17,

18


2021 to but excluding June 30, 2031, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 30 and December 31 of each year, commencing December 31, 2021. Then, from and including June 30, 2031, to but excluding the maturity date, the Subordinated Notes will bear interest at a floating rate equal to the benchmark (initially, three-month term SOFR), reset quarterly, plus a spread of 229 basis points, payable quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year. The Subordinated Notes mature on June 30, 2036.

The Company may, at its option, beginning with the interest payment date of June 30, 2031, and on any scheduled interest payment date thereafter, redeem the Subordinated Notes, in whole or in part. In addition, the Company may redeem all, but not less than all, of the Subordinated Notes at any time upon the occurrence of a “Tier 2 Capital Event,” a “Tax Event” or an “Investment Company Event” (each as defined in the Subordinated Notes). Any such redemption is subject to obtaining the prior approval of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or its designee). The redemption price with respect to any such redemption will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Subordinated Note, or portion thereof, to be redeemed, plus accrued but unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date.

(8) STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company has had a nonqualified incentive stock option plan, the BancFirst Corporation Stock Option Plan (the “Employee Plan”), since May 1986. At June 30, 2022, there were 133,500 shares available for future grants. The Employee Plan will terminate on December 31, 2024, if not extended. The options vest and are exercisable beginning four years from the date of grant at the rate of 25% per year for four years. Options expire no later than the end of fifteen years from the date of grant. The option price must be no less than 100% of the fair value of the stock relating to such option at the date of grant.

The Company has had the BancFirst Corporation Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Option Plan (the “Non-Employee Directors’ Plan”) since June 1999. Each non-employee director is granted an option for 10,000 shares. At June 30, 2022, there were 65,000 shares available for future grants. The Non-Employee Directors’ Plan will terminate on December 31, 2024, if not extended. The options vest and are exercisable beginning one year from the date of grant at the rate of 25% per year for four years, and expire no later than the end of fifteen years from the date of grant. The option price must be no less than 100% of the fair value of the stock relating to such option at the date of grant.

The Company currently uses newly issued shares for stock option exercises, but reserves the right to use shares purchased under the Company’s Stock Repurchase Program (the “SRP”) in the future.

Although not required or expected, the Company may settle some options in cash on a limited basis at the discretion of the Company. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company had cash settlements for 121,330 shares for a total net cash settlement of options of $5.5 million that did not increase the outstanding shares of the Company.

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and is based on certain assumptions including risk-free rate of return, dividend yield, stock price volatility and the expected term. The fair value of each option is expensed over its vesting period.

The following table is a summary of the Company’s recorded stock-based compensation expense:

Three Months Ended<br>June 30, Six Months Ended<br>June 30,
2022 2021 2022 2021
(Dollars in thousands) (Dollars in thousands)
Stock-based compensation expense $ 460 $ 473 $ 918 $ 1,049
Tax benefit 111 114 221 252
Stock-based compensation expense, net of tax $ 349 $ 359 $ 697 $ 797

The Company will continue to amortize the unearned stock-based compensation expense over the remaining vesting period of approximately seven years. The following table shows the unearned stock-based compensation expense:

June 30, 2022
(Dollars in thousands)
Unearned stock-based compensation expense $ 9,981

The following table shows the assumptions used for computing stock-based compensation expense under the fair value method on options granted during the periods presented:

Six Months Ended June 30,
2022 2021
Weighted average grant-date fair value per share of options granted $ 29.08 $ 23.74
Risk-free interest rate 1.75 to 3.25% 1.34 to1.74%
Dividend yield 2.00% 2.00%
Stock price volatility 34.61 to 34.71% 35.55 to 36.01%
Expected term 10 Yrs 10 Yrs

The risk-free interest rate is determined by reference to the spot zero-coupon rate for the U.S. Treasury security with a maturity similar to the expected term of the options. The dividend yield is the expected yield for the expected term. The stock price volatility is estimated from the recent historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The expected term is estimated from the historical option exercise experience. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur.

The Company has had the BancFirst Corporation Directors’ Deferred Stock Compensation Plan (the “Deferred Stock Compensation Plan”) since May 1999. As of June 30, 2022, there are 29,879 shares available for future issuance under the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan. The Deferred Stock Compensation Plan will terminate on December 31, 2024, if not extended. Under the plan, directors and members of the community advisory boards of the Company and its subsidiaries may defer up to 100% of their board fees. They are credited for each deferral with a number of stock units based on the current market price of the Company’s stock, which accumulate in an account until such time as the director or community board member terminates serving as a board member. Shares of common stock of the Company are then distributed to the terminating director or community board member based upon the number of stock units accumulated in his or her account. There were 13,288 and 2,161 shares of common stock distributed from the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

A summary of the accumulated stock units is as follows:

June 30, December 31,
2022 2021
Accumulated stock units 143,712 152,754
Average price $ 32.79 $ 30.86

(9) STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

In November 1999, the Company adopted the SRP. The SRP may be used as a means to increase earnings per share and return on equity. In addition, the SRP may be used to purchase treasury stock for the exercise of stock options or for distributions under the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan, to provide liquidity for optionees to dispose of stock from exercises of their stock options and to provide liquidity for stockholders wishing to sell their stock. All shares repurchased under the SRP have been retired and not held as treasury stock. The timing, price and amount of stock repurchases under the SRP may be determined by management and approved by the Company’s Executive Committee. During September 2021, the SRP was amended to permit the repurchase of an additional 650,000 shares.

The following table is a summary of the shares under the program:

As of June 30, 2022, the most recent notifications from the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, the FDIC and the Comptroller of the Currency, categorized BancFirst, Pegasus and Worthington as “well capitalized” under the prompt corrective action provisions. The Common Equity Tier 1 Capital of BancFirst Corporation, BancFirst, Pegasus and Worthington includes common stock and related paid-in capital and retained earnings. In connection with the adoption of the Basel III Capital Rules, the election was made to opt-out of the requirement to include most components of accumulated other comprehensive income in Common Equity Tier 1 Capital. Common Equity Tier 1 Capital for BancFirst Corporation, BancFirst, Pegasus and Worthington is reduced by goodwill and other intangible assets, net of associated deferred tax liabilities. The Company’s trust preferred securities have continued to be included in Tier 1 capital, as the Company’s total assets do not exceed $15 billion. There are no conditions or events since the most recent notifications to BancFirst Corporation, BancFirst, Pegasus and Worthington of their capital category that management believes would materially change their category under capital requirements existing as of the report date.

On June 17, 2021, the Company completed a private placement, under Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, of $60 million aggregate principal amount of Subordinated Notes. The Subordinated Notes have been structured to qualify as Tier 2 capital under bank regulatory guidelines.

In April 2020, the Company began originating loans to qualified small businesses under the PPP administered by the SBA. Federal bank regulatory agencies have issued an interim final rule that permits banks to neutralize the regulatory capital effects of participating in the Paycheck Protection Program Lending Facility (the “PPP Facility”) and clarify that PPP loans have a zero percent risk weight under applicable risk-based capital rules. Specifically, a bank may exclude all PPP loans pledged as collateral to the PPP Facility from its average total consolidated assets for the purposes of calculating its leverage ratio, while PPP loans that are not pledged as collateral to the PPP Facility are included. The PPP loans the Company originated in 2021 and 2020 are included in the calculation of the Company’s leverage ratio as of June 30, 2022 as the Company did not utilize the PPP Facility for funding purposes.

(11) FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Accounting standards define fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or the price paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market available to the entity in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.

FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

• Level 1 Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

• Level 2 Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset and liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

• Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation. This category includes certain collaterally dependent loans, repossessed assets, other real estate owned, goodwill and other intangible assets.

Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

A description of the valuation methodologies and key inputs used to measure financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, is set forth below. These valuation methodologies were applied to the following categories of the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities.

Debt Securities Available for Sale

Debt securities classified as available for sale are reported at fair value. U.S. Treasuries are valued using Level 1 inputs. Other debt securities available for sale including U.S. federal agencies, registered mortgage backed debt securities and state and political subdivisions are valued using prices from an independent pricing service utilizing Level 2 data. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things. The Company also invests in private label mortgage backed debt securities for which observable information is not readily available. These debt securities are reported at fair value utilizing Level 3 inputs. For these debt securities, management determines the fair value based on replacement cost, the income approach or information provided by outside consultants or lead investors. Discount rates are primarily based on reference to interest rate spreads on comparable debt securities of similar duration and credit rating as determined by the nationally recognized rating agencies adjusted for a lack of trading volume. Significant unobservable inputs are developed by investment securities professionals involved in the active trading of similar debt securities.

23


The Company reviews the prices for Level 1 and Level 2 debt securities supplied by the independent pricing service for reasonableness and to ensure such prices are aligned with traditional pricing matrices. In general, the Company does not purchase investment portfolio debt securities that are esoteric or that have complicated structures. The Company’s portfolio primarily consists of traditional investments including U.S. Treasury obligations, federal agency mortgage pass-through debt securities, general obligation municipal bonds and a small amount of municipal revenue bonds. Pricing for such instruments is fairly generic and is easily obtained. For in-state bond issues that have relatively low issue sizes and liquidity, the Company utilizes the same parameters for pricing mentioned in the preceding paragraph adjusted for the specific issue. Periodically, the Company will validate prices supplied by the independent pricing service by comparison to prices obtained from third party sources.

Derivatives

Derivatives are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs. The Company obtains dealer and market quotations to value its oil and gas swaps and options. The Company utilizes dealer quotes and observable market data inputs to substantiate internal valuation model.

The following table summarizes financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of the periods presented, segregated by the level of the valuation inputs within the fair value hierarchy utilized to measure fair value:

Level 1 Inputs Level 2 Inputs Level 3 Inputs Total Fair Value

Other debt securities 2,994 2,994
Derivative assets 8,946 8,946
Derivative liabilities 8,237 8,237

The changes in Level 3 assets measured at estimated fair value on a recurring basis during the periods presented were as follows:

Six Months Ended June 30, Twelve Months Ended<br>December 31,
2022 2021
(Dollars in thousands)
Balance at the beginning of the year $ 320 $ 12,869
Transfers to level 2 (12,714 )
Purchases 240
Settlements (110 ) (75 )
Balance at the end of the period $ 210 $ 320

The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers in and transfers out of Levels 1, 2 and 3 as of the end of the reporting period. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company did not transfer any debt securities. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company transferred debt securities from Level 3 to Level 2 due to a review of the pricing models that determined some asset backed debt securities to be Level 2.

24


Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

Certain financial assets and financial liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis; that is, the instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment). These financial assets and financial liabilities are reported at fair value utilizing Level 3 inputs.

The Company invests in equity securities without readily determinable fair values and utilizes Level 3 inputs. These equity securities are reported at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. The realized and unrealized gains and losses are reported as securities transactions in the noninterest income section of the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

Collateral dependent loans are reported at the fair value of the underlying collateral if repayment is dependent on liquidation of the collateral. When the Company determines that foreclosure is probable or when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty at the reporting date and repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, expected credit losses are based on the fair value of the collateral at the reporting date, adjusted for selling costs as appropriate. In no case does the fair value of a collateral dependent loan exceed the fair value of the underlying collateral. The collateral dependent loans are adjusted to fair value through a specific allocation of the allowance for credit losses or a direct charge-down of the loan.

Repossessed assets, upon initial recognition, are measured and adjusted to fair value through a charge-off to the allowance for possible credit losses based upon the fair value of the repossessed asset.

Other real estate owned is revalued at fair value subsequent to initial recognition, with any losses recognized in net expense from other real estate owned.

The following table summarizes assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis during the period presented. These nonrecurring fair values do not represent all assets, only those assets that have been adjusted during the reporting period:

Estimated Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company is required under current authoritative accounting guidance to disclose the estimated fair value of their financial instruments that are not recorded at fair value. For the Company, as for most financial institutions, substantially all of its assets and liabilities are considered financial instruments. A financial instrument is defined as cash, evidence of an ownership interest in an entity or a contract that creates a contractual obligation or right to deliver or receive cash or another financial instrument from a second entity. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments:

Cash and Cash Equivalents Include: Cash and Due from Banks and Interest-Bearing Deposits with Banks

The carrying amount of these short-term instruments is based on a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Federal Funds Sold

The carrying amount of these short-term instruments is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

25


Debt Securities Held for Investment

For debt securities held for investment, which are generally traded in secondary markets, fair values are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes, if available. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar debt securities making adjustments for credit or liquidity if applicable.

Loans Held For Sale

The Company originates mortgage loans to be sold. At the time of origination, the acquiring bank has already been determined and the terms of the loan, including interest rate, have already been set by the acquiring bank, allowing the Company to originate the loan at fair value. Mortgage loans are generally sold within 30 days of origination. Loans held for sale are valued using Level 2 inputs. Gains or losses recognized upon the sale of the loans are determined on a specific identification basis.

Loans Held For Investment

To determine the fair value of loans held for investment, the Company uses an exit price calculation, which takes into account factors such as liquidity, credit and the nonperformance risk of loans. For certain homogeneous categories of loans, such as some residential mortgages, fair values are estimated using the quoted market prices for securities backed by similar loans, adjusted for differences in loan characteristics. The fair values of other types of loans are estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities.

Deposits

The fair values of transaction and savings accounts are the amounts payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair values of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit are estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Short-Term Borrowings

The amounts payable on these short-term instruments are reasonable estimates of fair value.

Subordinated Debt

The fair values of subordinated debt are estimated using the rates that would be charged for subordinated debt of similar remaining maturities.

Loan Commitments and Letters of Credit

The fair values of commitments are estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the terms of the agreements. The fair values of letters of credit are based on fees currently charged for similar agreements.

26


The estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments that are reported at amortized cost in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, segregated by the level of valuation inputs within the fair value hierarchy utilized to measure fair value, are as follows:

Non-financial Assets and Non-financial Liabilities Measured at Fair Value

The Company has no non-financial assets or non-financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Certain non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis include intangible assets and other non-financial long-lived assets measured at fair value and adjusted for impairment. These items are evaluated at least annually for impairment. The overall levels of non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis were not considered to be significant to the Company at June 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021.

(12) DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company enters into oil and gas swaps and options contracts to accommodate the business needs of its customers. Upon the origination of an oil or gas swap or option contract with a customer, to mitigate the exposure to fluctuations in oil and gas prices, the Company simultaneously enters into an offsetting contract with a counterparty. These derivatives are not designated as hedged instruments and are recorded on the Company's consolidated balance sheet at fair value and are included in other assets. The Company's derivative financial instruments require a daily margin to be posted, which fluctuates with oil and gas prices. These margins have increased during 2022 due to the current increase in oil and gas prices and customer activity. These margins are included in other assets totaling $98.7 million at June 30, 2022 and $14.3 million at December 31, 2021.

The Company utilizes dealer quotations and observable market data inputs to substantiate internal valuation models. The notional amounts and estimated fair values of oil and gas derivative positions outstanding are presented in the following table:

June 30, 2022 December 31, 2021
Oil and Gas Swaps and Options Notional Units Notional<br>Amount Estimated<br>Fair Value Notional<br>Amount Estimated<br>Fair Value

2022 2021 2022 2021
(Dollars in thousands) (Dollars in thousands)
Derivative income $ 189 $ 37 $ 348 $ 39

The Company's credit exposure on oil and gas swaps and options varies based on the current market prices of oil and gas. Other than credit risk, changes in the fair value of customer positions will be offset by equal and opposite changes in the counterparty positions. The net positive fair value of the contracts represents the profit derived from the activity and is unaffected by the market price movements. The Company's share of total profit is approximately 35%.

Customer credit exposure is managed by strict position limits and is primarily offset by first liens on production while the remainder is offset by cash. Counterparty credit exposure is managed by selecting highly rated counterparties (rated A- or better by Standard and Poor's) and monitoring market information.

The Company's net credit exposure relating to oil and gas swaps and options with bank counterparties was zero as of both June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Balance Sheet Offsetting

Derivatives may be eligible for offset in the consolidated balance sheet and/or subject to master netting arrangements. The Company's derivative transactions with upstream financial institution counterparties and bank customers are generally executed under International Swaps and Derivative Association ("ISDA") master agreements, which include "right of set-off" provisions. In such cases there is generally a legally enforceable right to offset recognized amounts and there may be an intention to settle such amounts on a net basis. Nonetheless, the Company does not generally offset such financial instruments for financial reporting purposes.

(13) SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company evaluates its performance with an internal profitability measurement system that measures the profitability of its business units on a pre-tax basis. The six principal business units are metropolitan banks, community banks, Pegasus, Worthington, other financial services and executive, operations and support. Metropolitan banks, community banks, Pegasus and Worthington offer traditional banking products such as commercial and retail lending and a full line of deposit accounts. Metropolitan banks consist of banking locations in the metropolitan Oklahoma City and Tulsa areas. Community banks consist of banking locations in communities throughout Oklahoma. Pegasus consists of banking locations in the Dallas metropolitan area. Worthington consists of banking locations in the Fort Worth metropolitan area. Other financial services are specialty product business units including guaranteed small business lending, residential mortgage lending, trust services, securities brokerage, electronic banking and insurance. The executive, operations and support groups represent executive management, operational support and corporate functions that are not allocated to the other business units.

The financial information for each business unit is presented on the basis used internally by management to evaluate performance and allocate resources. The Company utilizes a transfer pricing system to allocate the benefit or cost of funds provided or used by the various business units. Certain services provided by the support group to other business units, such as item processing, are allocated at rates approximating the cost of providing the services. Eliminations are adjustments to consolidate the business units and companies.

Actual results may differ materially from forward-looking statements.

SUMMARY

The Company’s net income for the second quarter of 2022 was $44.7 million, compared to $48.2 million for the second quarter of 2021. Diluted net income per common share was $1.34 and $1.45 for the second quarter of 2022 and 2021, respectively.

The Company’s net interest income for the second quarter of 2022 increased to $86.9 million, compared to $82.4 million for the second quarter of 2021. Rising short term interest rates contributed to the increase. The net interest margin for the second quarter was 3.05% and 3.32% or the second quarter of 2021. The margin for the second quarter of 2021 was positively impacted by higher PPP fees, which were $11.9 million compared to approximately $400,000 for the current quarter.

For the second quarter of 2022 the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $501,000 compared to a net benefit from reversal of provisions of $9.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021. Provisions for credit losses have stabilized in 2022 after the economic downturn and recovery from the effects of the COVID pandemic in prior years.

Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2022 totaled $42.6 million down from $44.6 million for the second quarter of 2021. The decrease in noninterest income in 2022 was due to a purchase gain of $6.0 million that was included in the second quarter of 2021 related to the purchase and assumption transaction with The First National Bank and Trust Company of Vinita, Oklahoma. Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2022 was relatively flat at $73.7 million but included a gain of $3.1 million from the sale of the Company’s prior headquarters that was carried in other real estate owned, as well as a write down of an equity investment of $1.5 million.

The Company’s effective tax rate was 19.1% for the second quarter of 2022 compared to 23.4% for the second quarter of 2021. The lower effective tax rate was driven by the exercise of stock options during the quarter that produced higher tax deductions for compensation, and a lower state income tax rate.

At June 30, 2022, the Company’s total assets were $12.5 billion compared to $9.4 billion at December 31, 2021. Deposits totaled $11.1 billion, an increase of $3.1 billion from December 31, 2021. The consolidated balance sheet growth was driven by the return of customer deposits from off-balance sheet sweep accounts, continued deposit growth and the acquisition of Worthington National Bank. Loans totaled $6.6 billion compared to $6.2 billion at December 31, 2021. Loan growth during the first two quarters of 2022, net of acquired loans and PPP loans, was $247 million, or 4%. The Company’s total stockholders’ equity was $1.2 billion, an increase of $14.0 million over December 31, 2021.

Asset quality remained strong as nonaccrual loans continued to decline, totaling $13.7 million, which represented 0.21% of total loans at June 30, 2022, down from 0.34% at year-end 2021. The allowance for credit losses to total loans stood at 1.31% at June 30, 2022, down from 1.36% at the end of 2021.

Net Interest Income

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, net interest income, which is the Company’s principal source of operating revenue, increased $4.5 million or 5.5% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021. Rising short term interest rates contributed to the increase along with net interest income related to the Worthington acquisition. Net interest margin is the ratio of taxable-equivalent net interest income to average earning assets for the period. As shown in the preceding table, the Company’s net interest margin for the second quarter of 2022 decreased compared to the second quarter of 2021. The margin for the second quarter of 2021 was positively impacted by higher PPP fees, which were $11.9 million compared to approximately $400,000 for the current quarter.

Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2022 increased $2.8 million or 1.8% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. Rising short term interest rates contributed to the increase along with net interest income related to the Worthington acquisition. As shown in the preceding table, the Company’s net interest margin for the six months ended June 30, 2022 decreased compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. The margin for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was positively impacted by higher PPP fees, which were $21.7 million compared to approximately $2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

During 2021, the Company’s net interest income and net interest margin had been impacted by the decreases in interest rates stemming from the Federal Reserve's response to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, during 2022 the Federal Reserve began raising interest rates and the Company's expectation is that interest rates will continue to increase during the year.

Provision for Credit Losses

For the second quarter of 2022 the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $501,000 compared to a net benefit from reversal of provisions of $9.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021. The Company’s reversal of provision for the second quarter of 2021 was based on improvements in economic conditions and the Company’s outlook for certain economic indicators. Provisions for credit losses have stabilized in 2022 after the economic downturn and recovery from the effects of the COVID pandemic in prior years. The Company establishes an allowance as an estimate of the expected credit losses in the loan portfolio at the consolidated balance sheet date. Management believes the allowance for credit losses is appropriate based upon management’s best estimate of expected losses within the existing loan portfolio. Should any of the factors considered by management in evaluating the appropriate level of the allowance for credit losses change, the Company’s estimate of expected credit losses could also change, which could affect the amount of future provisions for credit losses. Net loan charge-offs were $805,000 for the second quarter of 2022, compared to net loan charge-offs of $4.2 million for the second quarter of 2021. The rate of net charge-offs to average total loans, as presented in the preceding table, continues to be at a low level.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $3.4 million, which was substantially related to acquired loans, compared to a net benefit from reversal of provisions of $9.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Net loan charge-offs were $516,000, compared to $4.7 million for the same period of the prior year.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income, as presented in the preceding table, decreased by $2.0 million for the second quarter of 2022 compared to the second quarter of 2021. The decrease in noninterest income in 2022 was due to a purchase gain of $6.0 million that was included in the second quarter of 2021. In addition, the Company earned $2.1 million on the sale of loans for second quarter of 2021 compared to $1.3 million for second quarter of 2022. The income from sales of loans was higher in 2021 due to the increase in volume of mortgage loans originated because of record low mortgage rates. The Company expects the volume of mortgage loans originated to decrease as interest rates increase.

Noninterest income included non-sufficient funds fees totaling $6.1 million and $5.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. This represents 14.3% and 12.6% of the Company’s noninterest income for the respective periods. In addition, the Company had debit card interchange fees totaling $12.5 million and $11.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. This represents 29.3% and 26.6% of the Company’s noninterest income for the respective periods.

Noninterest income increased by $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in noninterest income was mostly attributable to $5.5 million of income resulting from the application of equity method accounting related to an equity interest received in the process of a loan collection, along with a $3.4 million increase in income from service charges on deposits and increases in trust revenue, insurance commissions and cash management. The increase in non-interest income was partially offset by a loss of $4.0 million on bonds resulting from the sale of $226 million of low yielding debt securities, which were subsequently reinvested in higher yielding debt securities. There was a $2.7 million gain on sale of other assets in the first six months of 2021, compared to $175,000 for 2022. In addition, there was an acquisition purchase gain of $6.0 million and a gain from the sale of the Company's Hugo, Oklahoma branch of $2.5 million in the first six months of 2021. The Company earned $4.1 million on the sale of loans for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Noninterest income included non-sufficient fund fees totaling $12.6 million and $11.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. This represents 14.7% and 13.2% of the Company’s noninterest income for the respective periods. In addition, the Company had debit card interchange fees totaling $24.1 million and $22.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. This represents 28.0% and 26.6% of the Company’s noninterest income for the respective periods. Government assistance funds that flowed into the market, including PPP loans and stimulus payments to households, increased both customer liquidity and interchange volume. This activity resulted in higher debit card interchange fees for the six months ending June 30, 2021.

The Company is subject to political pressures that could limit its ability to charge for non-sufficient funds ("NSF") and overdraft fees. As of April 1, 2022, the Company lowered the rates charged on NSF and overdraft fees. To the extent that increased volume doesn’t overcome these rate changes, the Company could experience lower annual pretax income.

It is likely the Company will exceed $10 billion in total assets at December 31, 2022. Pursuant to the Durbin Amendment of the Dodd-Frank Act, based on current run rates, this would trigger an approximate reduction of annual pretax income from debit card interchange fees of between $22 to $24 million beginning July 1, 2023.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense, as presented in the preceding table, was relatively flat for second quarter of 2022 compared to the second quarter of 2021, but included a gain of $3.1 million from the sale of the Company’s prior headquarters that was carried in other real estate owned, as well as a write down of an equity investment of $1.5 million.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, noninterest expense increased by $7.2 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in noninterest expenses was due to the increase in salaries and employee benefits and other expenses related to the Worthington acquisition. In addition, the six months ended June 30, 2022 included a gain of $3.1 million from the sale of the Company’s prior headquarters that was carried in other real estate owned, as well as a write down of an equity investment of $1.5 million. The six months ended June 30, 2021 included approximately $4.0 million in acquisition related expenses.

Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate was 19.1% for the second quarter of 2022, compared to 23.4% for the second quarter of 2021. The lower effective tax rate was driven by the exercising of stock options during the second quarter of 2022 that provided higher tax deductions for compensation and a lower state income tax rate.

The Company’s effective tax rate on income before taxes was 18.5% for the first six months of 2022, compared to 21.2% for the first six months of 2021.

The reasons for the difference between the Company’s effective tax rate and the federal statutory rate were tax-exempt income, nondeductible amortization, federal and state tax credits and state tax expense.

Cash and Interest-Bearing Deposits with Banks

The aggregate of cash and due from banks and interest-bearing deposits with banks increased by $1.8 billion, or 89.2%, to $3.9 billion, from December 31, 2021 to June 30, 2022. The increase was primarily related to the return of deposits from off-balance sheet sweep accounts related to the Company’s year-end sweep program, which was partially off-set by the purchase of higher yielding bonds described below.

Securities

At June 30, 2022, total debt securities increased $671.4 million, or 125.6% compared to December 31, 2021. The size of the Company’s securities portfolio is determined by the Company’s liquidity and asset/liability management. The net unrealized loss on debt securities available for sale, before taxes, was $60.9 million at June 30, 2022, compared to a net unrealized gain of $2.8 million at December 31, 2021. These unrealized losses and gains are included in the Company’s stockholders’ equity as accumulated other

comprehensive income, net of income tax, in the amounts of a loss of $46.5 million at June 30, 2022 and a gain of $2.2 million at December 31, 2021. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company had a loss of $4.0 million resulting from the sale of $226 million of debt securities with an average yield of 0.16%, which was subsequently reinvested in $220 million of debt securities with an average yield of 1.86%. On January 10, 2022, the Company purchased United States Treasury Notes with $600 million par value at an average yield of 1.42% and an average maturity of 53 months.

See Note (3) of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for disclosures regarding the Company’s Securities.

Loans

At June 30, 2022, total loans increased $426.4 million or 6.9% compared to December 31, 2021. Loan growth during the first two quarters of 2022, net of acquired loans and PPP loans, was approximately $247 million, or 4%. At June 30, 2022, the balance of total PPP loans was $3.2 million, with no unamortized processing fees, compared to $80.4 million, net of unamortized processing fees of $2.0 million at December 31, 2021.

See Note (4) of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for disclosures regarding the Company’s loan portfolio segments.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The increase in the allowance for credit loss during 2022 was substantially related to the additional allowance for credit loss required for newly acquired loans. The decrease in the allowance for credit loss during 2021 was driven by a reversal of a pandemic-related provision during 2021 based on sustained improvements in the economy, both nationally and in the Company's markets, which reduced the amount of expected credit loss within the loan portfolio. This reduction was partially offset by additional allowance for credit loss required for newly acquired loans.

Nonperforming and Restructured Assets

At June 30, 2022, nonperforming and restructured assets decreased $9.2 million to $59.9 million compared to December 31, 2021. The Company’s level of nonperforming and restructured assets has continued to be relatively low, equating to 0.48% of total assets at June 30, 2022 and 0.73% of total assets at December 31, 2021.

Nonaccrual loans totaled $13.7 million at June 30, 2022, compared to $20.9 million at December 31, 2021. The Company’s nonaccrual loans decreased $7.2 million from December 31, 2021 due to resolutions of several loans. The Company’s nonaccrual loans are primarily commercial and agricultural non-real estate and farmland. Nonaccrual loans negatively impact the Company’s net interest margin. A loan is placed on nonaccrual status when, in the opinion of management, the future collectability of both interest and principal is in serious doubt. Interest income is not recognized until the principal balance is fully collected. However, if the full collection of the remaining principal balance is not in doubt, interest income is recognized on certain of these loans on a cash basis. Had nonaccrual loans performed in accordance with their original contractual terms, the Company would have recognized additional interest income of approximately $653,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Only a small amount of this interest is expected to be ultimately collected. Approximately $2.2 million of nonaccrual loans were guaranteed by government agencies at June 30, 2022.

Restructured loans totaled $2.2 million at June 30, 2022 compared to $3.7 million at December 31, 2021. The Company charges interest on principal balances outstanding during deferral periods. As a result, the current and future financial effects of the recorded balance of loans considered to be troubled debt restructurings whose terms were modified during the period were not considered to be material.

The classification of a loan as nonperforming does not necessarily indicate that loan principal and interest will ultimately be uncollectible; although, in an economic downturn, the Company’s experience has been that the level of collections declines. The above normal risk associated with nonperforming loans has been considered in the determination of the allowance for credit losses. At June 30, 2022, the allowance for credit losses as a percentage of nonperforming and restructured loans was 420.84%, compared to 284.33%, at December 31, 2021. The level of nonperforming loans and credit losses could rise over time as a result of adverse economic conditions.

Other real estate owned (OREO) and repossessed assets totaled $39.2 million at June 30, 2022, compared to $39.6 million at December 31, 2021. Other real estate owned consists of properties acquired through foreclosure proceedings or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure and premises held for sale. Other real estate owned included a commercial real estate property recorded at $29.7 million at June 30, 2022 and $29.5 million at December 31, 2021. The Company's rental income from OREO was $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The Company's rental income from OREO was $5.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $4.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. In addition, the Company's OREO holding expense was $2.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $3.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The Company's OREO holding expense was $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30,

2022 compared to $4.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Other real estate owned and repossessed assets are carried at the lower of the book values of the related loans or fair values based upon appraisals, less estimated costs to sell. Write-downs arising at the time of reclassification of such properties from loans to other real estate owned are charged directly to the allowance for credit losses. Any losses on bank premises designated to be sold are charged to operating expense at the time of transfer from premises to other real estate owned. Decreases in values of properties subsequent to their classification as other real estate owned are charged to operating expense.

Intangible Assets, Goodwill and Other Assets

Identifiable intangible assets and goodwill totaled $205.4 million and $167.5 million at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The increase in goodwill and intangible assets was due the acquisition of Worthington on February 8, 2022, which added $5.9 million of core deposit intangibles and $33.7 million of goodwill. See Note (2) of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for disclosure regarding the Company’s recent developments, including mergers and acquisitions.

Other assets includes the cash surrender value of key-man life insurance policies totaling $81.6 million at June 30, 2022 and $81.4 million at December 31, 2021.

Derivative financial instruments consisting of oil and gas swaps and option contracts are included in other assets and totaled $55.2 million at June 31, 2022 and $8.9 million at December 31, 2021. These derivative financial instruments have increased due to the increase in oil and gas prices and customer activity. They require a daily margin to be posted, which fluctuates with oil and gas prices. The margins have increased during 2022 due to the current increase in oil and gas prices and customer activity. The margins are included in other assets totaling $98.7 million at June 30, 2022 and $14.3 million at December 31, 2021. See Note (12) of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a complete discussion of the Company’s derivative financial instruments.

Equity securities are reported in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet. The Company invests in equity securities without readily determinable fair values. These equity securities are reported at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. The realized and unrealized gains and losses are reported as securities transactions in the noninterest income section of the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. The balance of equity securities was $10.2 million at June 30, 2022 and $10.6 million at December 31, 2021. The Company reviews its portfolio of equity securities for impairment at least quarterly.

Low Income Housing and New Market Tax Credit Investments

During 2022, there have not been any material changes in the Company’s low income housing tax credit investments and new market tax credit investments, which are included in other assets on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. See Note (6) of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, for disclosures regarding these investments.

Liquidity and Funding

The Company’s principal source of liquidity and funding is its broad deposit base generated from customer relationships. The availability of deposits is affected by economic conditions, competition with other financial institutions and alternative investments available to customers. Through interest rates paid, service charge levels and services offered, the Company can affect its level of deposits to a limited extent. The level and maturity of funding necessary to support the Company’s lending and investment functions is determined through the Company’s asset/liability management process. The Company currently does not rely heavily on long-term borrowings and does not utilize brokered CDs. The Company maintains federal funds lines of credit with other banks and could also utilize the sale of loans, securities and liquidation of other assets as sources of liquidity and funding.

There have not been any other material changes from the liquidity and funding discussion included in Management’s Discussion and Analysis in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Deposits

At June 30, 2022, deposits totaled $11.1 billion, an increase of $3.1 billion or 37.7% from the December 31, 2021 total. The increase in deposits was primarily related to the return of funds from off-balance sheet sweep accounts related to the Company’s year-end sweep program. The Company’s core deposits provide it with a stable, low-cost funding source. Core deposits as a percentage of total deposits were 98.4% at June 30, 2022 and 98.2% at December 31, 2021. Noninterest-bearing deposits to total deposits were 46.9% at June 30, 2022, compared to 46.7% at December 31, 2021.

Off-balance sheet sweep accounts totaled $2.9 billion at June 30, 2022 compared to $5.1 billion at December 31, 2021, which included a temporary sweep amount of $2.3 billion.

Subordinated Debt

On June 17, 2021, the Company completed a private placement, under Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, of $60 million aggregate principal amount of 3.50% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due 2036 to various institutional accredited investors. See Note (7) of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a complete discussion of the Company’s subordinated debt.

Short-Term Borrowings

Short-term borrowings, consisting primarily of federal funds purchased and repurchase agreements are another source of funds for the Company. The level of these borrowings is determined by various factors, including customer demand and the Company’s ability to earn a favorable spread on the funds obtained. Short-term borrowings were $6.1 million at June 30, 2022. The Company did not have short-term borrowings at December 31, 2021.

Lines of Credit

BancFirst has a line of credit from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) of Topeka, Kansas to use for liquidity or to match-fund certain long-term fixed-rate loans. In addition, BancFirst has a $25.0 million line of credit with another financial institution that is an overnight federal funds facility. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, BancFirst had no advances outstanding under either line of credit. Pegasus has a $20.0 million line of credit with another financial institution that is an overnight federal funds facility. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Pegasus had no advances outstanding under its line of credit. Worthington has an $8.5 million line of credit with another financial institution that is an overnight federal funds facility, and a line of credit from the FHLB of Dallas, Texas to use for liquidity or to match-fund certain long-term fixed rate loans. Worthington had no advances outstanding as of June 30, 2022 under either line of credit.

Capital Resources

Stockholders’ equity totaled $1.2 billion at both June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. In addition to net income of $80.6 million, other changes in stockholders’ equity during the six months ended June 30, 2022 included $4.6 million related to common stock issuances for stock option exercises and $918,000 related to stock-based compensation, that were partially offset by $23.6 million in dividends and a $48.6 million decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income. The Company’s leverage ratio and total risk-based capital ratios at June 30, 2022 were well in excess of the regulatory requirements.

See Note (9) of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of capital ratios and requirements.

Liquidity Risk and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

(a) to determine the Option Exercise Price, which shall be equal to the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock in accordance with the definition of such term contained herein;

(g) to construe and to interpret the terms and the conditions of the Plan and the Stock Options granted pursuant to the Plan; and

(h) to adopt and to revise any regulations and rules as the Committee may deem necessary or advisable to administer the Plan.

Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, except for (a) an adjustment pursuant to Section 12, or (b) the cancellation and re-grant of Stock Options that re-establishes the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock and therefore the Option Exercise Price of Stock Options not to exceed a total of 300,000 shares in any period of twelve (12) continuous months, which the Committee may affect

without stockholder approval, in no case may the Committee amend an outstanding Stock Option to reduce the Option Exercise Price of the Stock Option.

3.2. EFFECT OF DECISIONS. All constructions, decisions, determinations and interpretations of the Committee shall be final and binding upon all persons having an interest in the Plan and/or any Stock Option.

A member of the Committee shall be eligible to receive a grant of a Stock Option under the Plan on the same terms as other Employees. However, if the Committee grants Stock Options to a member of the Committee, such grant shall not be effective until such grant is approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, consisting of three (3) or more "independent directors" as defined in and determined pursuant to the Marketplace Rules of the NASDAQ or any stock exchange upon which the Common Stock of the Company is listed.

3.4. RULE 16B-3 COMPLIANCE. With respect Optionees who are subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the Plan shall be administered in compliance with the requirements of Rule 16b-3.

  1. ELIGIBILITY. The individuals that shall be eligible to participate in the Plan shall be such key Employees (including officers) of the Company and/or one of its Subsidiaires in which the Company has proprietary interest by reason of stock ownership or otherwise, including any company in which the Company acquires a proprietary interest after the adoption of this Plan (but only if the Company owns, directly or indirectly, not less than 50% of the total combined voting power in the company), as the Committee shall determine from time to time.

  2. STOCK. The stock subject to Stock Options and the other provisions of the Plan shall be shares of the Company’s authorized but unissued Common Stock or treasury stock, as determined by the Committee. Subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 6.9 and Section 6.10, the total number of shares of Common Stock of the Company on which Stock Options may be granted under the Plan subsequent to the effective date of this amended and restated Plan shall not exceed in the aggregate 148,500 shares. In the event that any outstanding Stock Option under the Plan for any reason expires or is terminated prior to the end of the period during which Stock Options may be granted, the shares of the Common Stock allocable to the unexercised portion of such Stock Option may again be subject to a Stock Option under the Plan.

  3. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF STOCK OPTIONS. Stock Options granted pursuant to the Plan shall be evidenced by a stock option award agreement in such form as the Committee shall, from time to time, approve. Stock Options shall comply with and be subject to the following terms and conditions:

6.1. MEDIUM AND TIME OF PAYMENT. The Option Exercise Price shall be payable in United States Dollars upon the exercise of the Stock Option and may be paid in cash or by certified check, bank draft or money order payable to the order of the Company, unless otherwise determined by the Committee. The consideration to be paid for shares of Common Stock to be issued upon exercise of a Stock Option, including, without limitation, the method of payment may be determined by the Committee and may consist entirely of (a) cash or certified check, bank draft or money order payable to the order of the Company, (b), to the extent permitted by applicable law, regulation or rule, authorization for the Company to retain from the total number of shares of Common Stock for which the Stock Option is exercised that number of shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value on the date of exercise equal to the exercise price for the total number of shares of Common Stock for which the Stock Option is exercised or (c) a combination of the foregoing.

6.2. NUMBER OF SHARES. The Stock Option shall state the total number of shares to which it pertains.

6.3. OPTION EXERCISE PRICE. The Option Exercise Price shall be not less than the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Date of Grant.

6.4. TERM OF STOCK OPTIONS. The period during which Stock Options shall be exercisable shall be fixed by the Committee, but in no event shall a Stock Option be exercisable after the expiration of fifteen (15) years from the date such Stock Option is granted. Subject to the foregoing, Stock Options shall be exercisable at such times and be subject to such restrictions and conditions as the Committee shall in each instance determine, which restrictions and conditions need not be the same for all Stock Options.

6.5. PROCEDURE FOR EXERCISE. Any Stock Option shall be exercisable at such times, on such terms and subject to such conditions as may be determined by the Committee and reflected in the stock option agreement.

A Stock Option shall be deemed to be exercised when notice of such exercise has been given to the Company by the person entitled to exercise the Stock Option and the Company has received full payment of the Option Exercise Price in accordance with Section 6.1.

6.6. DATE OF EXERCISE. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of granting a Stock Option or in accordance with this Plan, Stock Options shall be exercisable at the rate set forth below beginning four (4) years from the Date of Grant. After becoming exercisable, the Stock Option may be exercised at any time and from time to time in whole or in part (but in whole share increments) until termination of the Stock Option as set forth this Plan.

Elapsed Years from<br><br>Date of Grant Percent<br><br>of Shares Cumulative<br><br>Percent<br><br>of Shares
less than 4 years 0 % 0 %
4 but less than 5 years 25 % 25 %

6 but less than 7 years 25 % 75 %
7 or more years 25 % 100 %

6.7. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. In the event of the termination of an Optionee’s Continuous Employment as an Employee, such Optionee’s Stock Option, whether or not then exercisable, shall terminate immediately; provided, however, that if the termination is not as a result of embezzlement, theft or other violation of the law, the Optionee shall have the right to exercise such Stock Option (to the extent exercisable at the time of termination) at any time within thirty (30) days after such termination; provided, further, that if any termination of employment is related to the Optionee's retirement with the consent of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, or the Optionee’s disability, the Optionee shall have the right to exercise such Stock Option (to the extent exercisable up to the date of retirement) at any time within six (6) months after such retirement; and provided, further, that if the Optionee dies while in the employment of the Company or within the period of time after termination of employment or retirement during which such Optionee was entitled to exercise such Stock Optionee as hereinabove provided, his estate, personal representative or beneficiary shall have the right to exercise such Stock Option (to the extent exercisable at the date of death) at any time within twelve (12) months from the date of such Optionee death or disability.

6.8. REINSTATEMENT. Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 6, the Committee has the authority to reinstate a Stock Option forfeited under Section 6.7 if the Optionee resumes employment as an Employee within twelve (12) months following such termination; provided, however, in no event shall any such reinstatement extend the specified expiration date of the Stock Option.

6.9. RECAPITALIZATION. The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock on which Stock Options may be granted to persons participating under the Plan, the number of shares thereof covered by each outstanding Stock Option, and the price per share thereof in each such Stock Option, shall all be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock of the Company resulting from a subdivision or consolidation of shares or other capital adjustment or the payment of a stock dividend or other increase or decrease in such shares, effected without receipt of consideration by the Company; provided, however, that any fractional shares resulting from such adjustment shall be eliminated. In the event of a change in the Company's Common Stock that is limited to a change in the designation thereof to “Capital Stock” or other similar designation, or a change in the par value thereof, or from par value to no par value, without increase in the number of issued shares, the shares resulting from any such change shall be deemed to be Common Stock within the meaning of the Plan.

6.10. REORGANIZATION OF COMPANY. Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company, if the Company shall be the surviving or resulting corporation in any merger or consolidation that does not result in change of control of the Company, any Stock Option granted hereunder shall pertain and apply to the securities to which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Stock Option would have been entitled. In the event of a dissolution or liquidation of the Company or a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving or resulting corporation or that results in a change in control of the Company, or a tender or exchange offer which results in a change in control of the Company, the Committee shall determine: (a) whether all or any part of the unexercisable portion of any Stock Option outstanding under the Plan shall terminate; (b) whether the Stock Options shall become immediately exercisable; or (c) whether such Stock Options may be exchanged for options covering securities of any such surviving or resulting corporation, subject to the agreement of any such surviving or resulting corporation, on terms and conditions substantially similar to a Stock Option hereunder.

6.11. TAX WITHHOLDING. Upon any event that requires tax withholding in connection with any Stock Option, the Company or one of its Subsidiaries shall have the right at its option:

(a) to require the Optionee (or the estate, personal representative or beneficiary) to pay or to provide for the payment of any taxes that the Company or one of its Subsidiaries may be required to withhold with respect to such event; or

(b) to deduct from any amount otherwise payable in cash to the Optionee (or the estate, personal representative or beneficiary) the amount of any taxes that the Company or one of its Subsidiaries may be required to withhold with respect to such event.

In any case where tax is required to be withheld in connection with the delivery of securities under the Plan, the Committee may in its sole discretion (subject to applicable laws, regulations and rules) require or grant the Optionee (or the estate, personal representative or beneficiary) the right to elect, pursuant to such regulations and such rules as may be established by the Committee and subject to such conditions as may be established by the Committee, that the Company reduce the number of shares of Common Stock to be delivered by (or otherwise reacquire from the such person) the appropriate number of shares of Common Stock, valued at a consistent manner with the Fair Market Value or at the sales price in accordance with cashless exercises, necessary to satisfy the applicable withholding obligation.

6.12. ASSIGNABILITY. Except as provided in this Section 6.12, no Stock Option shall be assignable or transferable except as follows:

(a) by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.

(b) for the purpose of making a charitable gift as permitted by Section 6.16.

(c) to the Optionee as trustee or to the Optionee and one or more others as co-trustees, of a revocable trust that allows the Optionee to amend or revoke the trust at any time. If the Optionee relinquishes such Optionee’s power to amend or revoke the trust or resigns as a trustee, the Optionee shall withdraw the Stock Option from the trust prior to the relinquishment of such power or such Optionee’s resignation as trustee and shall re-vest title to the Stock Option in the Optionee’s individual name. If the trust becomes irrevocable due to the death of the Optionee, the successor or remaining trustee(s) shall have the same power to exercise the Stock Option under Section 6.7 as the personal representative. If the Optionee becomes incapacitated, the date of incapacity shall be deemed for purposes of this Plan as the date of termination of employment under Section 6.6 (whether or not Optionee’s employment has actually terminated), and the successor or remaining trustee(s) of the trust shall have the same right to exercise the Stock Option as a terminated Optionee has under Section 6.7. The Optionee as trustee and any successor or remaining trustee(s) shall be bound by all the terms and conditions of the Plan and the stock option award agreement delivered by the Company to the Optionee under this Plan.

(d) to the extent set forth in the stock option aware agreement governing such Stock Option.

6.13. OPTIONEE'S AGREEMENT. If, at the time of the exercise of any Stock Option, it is necessary or desirable, in order to comply with any applicable laws, rules or regulations relating to the sale of securities, that the Optionee exercising the Stock Option shall agree that such Optionee will purchase the shares that are subject to the Stock Option for investment and not with any present intention to resell the same, the Optionee will, upon the request of the Company, execute and deliver to the Company an agreement to such effect.

6.14. RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER. An Optionee shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to shares covered by his Stock Option until the date of issuance of the shares to him and only after such shares are fully paid.

6.15. OTHER PROVISIONS. The stock option award agreement authorized under the Plan may contain such other provisions as the Committee shall deem advisable.

6.16. Charitable Gift. An Optionee shall be permitted to assign such Optionee’s Stock Option without consideration, either in full or in one or more partial assignments from time to time, to a Charity. Assignment(s) may be made during the Optionee’s lifetime or may be effective upon his death. If a Stock Option is assigned to a Charity, in whole or in part, it shall continue to be subject to Section 6.6 and Section 6.6, which shall thereafter apply to the same extent as if the Stock Option were still held by the Optionee himself (if the Optionee is living), or by the Optionee’s estate, personal representative or beneficiary (if the Optionee is deceased).

  1. MARKETABILITY OF SHARES. The Common Stock is currently traded on NASDAQ. As a result, its liquidity varies widely in response to supply and demand. Consequently, the Company can give no assurances as to the marketability of shares acquired under the Plan.

  2. TAX IMPLICATIONS. It is anticipated that Stock Options granted under the Plan will be treated as Nonqualified Stock Options by the Internal Revenue Service. As such, exercise of the Stock Option would generate a taxable event with the difference between the original Option Exercise Price and the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock at the time of exercise being treated as ordinary income. If a Stock Option is transferred to a Charity as permitted by Section 6.12(b) and Section 6.16, the Optionee should expect to have ordinary income attributed to him at the time the Charity exercises the Stock Option, in the same amount and with the same effect as if the Optionee exercised the Stock Option.

  3. TERM OF PLAN. No Stock Option may be granted after December 31, 2024.

  4. NO OBLIGATION TO EXERCISE OPTION. The granting of a Stock Option shall impose no obligation upon the Optionee to exercise such Stock Option.

  5. COMPLIANCE WITH LAW. The Plan, the granting and the vesting of Stock Options, the offer, the issuance and the delivery of shares of Common Stock and/or the payment of money under the Plan are subject to compliance with all applicable federal and state laws, regulations and rules (including, without limitation, federal and state securities laws, regulations and rules and federal margin requirements) and to such approval by governmental, listing or regulatory authorities as may be necessary or advisable in connection therewith. Any person acquiring any securities under the Plan shall, if requested by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, provide such assurances and representations as the Committee may deem necessary or advisable to assure compliance with all applicable legal and accounting requirements.

  6. AMENDMENTS.

12.1 AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION. The Committee may alter, amend, discontinue, suspend or terminate the Plan or any portion thereof at any time, including any alteration, discontinuance, suspension or termination necessary to comply with any tax, securities or regulatory law or requirement or any applicable listing requirement with which the Committee intends the Plan to comply; provided, however, no such alteration, discontinuance, suspension or termination shall be made without shareholder approval if such amendment constitutes a “material amendment.” For purposes of the Plan, a “material amendment” shall mean an amendment that (a) materially increases the benefits accruing to Optionees in the Plan, (b) materially increases the number of securities that may be issued under the Plan, (c) materially modifies the requirements for participation in the Plan or (d) is otherwise deemed a material amendment by the Committee pursuant to any applicable law, regulation or rule, applicable accounting or listing standards.

12.2 AMENDMENTS TO OPTIONS. The Committee may not amend the terms and conditions of a Stock Option without the prior written consent of the Optionee.

12.3 LIMITATIONS ON AMENDMENTS TO THE PLAN. No alteration, amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan or change affecting any outstanding Stock Option shall, without the prior written consent of the Optionee, affect in a manner materially adverse to such Optionee, the obligations of the Optionee under any Stock Option granted prior to the effective date of such change. Changes under Section 6.9 and Section 6.10 shall not be deemed to materially adverse changes under this Section 12.3.

AMENDED AND RESTATED

BANCFIRST CORPORATION NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS'

STOCK OPTION PLAN

1. PURPOSE. This Amended and Restated BancFirst Corporation Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Option Plan (“the Plan”) incorporates the amendments to the Amended and Restated BancFirst Corporation Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Option Plan that were adopted by the stockholders of BancFirst Corporation (the “Corporation”) on May 26, 2022.

The Plan is intended as an incentive and to encourage stock ownership by the non-employee directors of the Corporation in order to increase their proprietary interest in the Corporation's success.

The Plan is intended to comply with Section 409A of the United States Tax Code.

2. DEFINITIONS. As used herein, the following terms shall have the corresponding meanings:

2.1. “Committee” shall mean the Board of Directors of the Corporation, or a duly constituted committee of the Board consisting of three or more members, at least a majority of which shall be “Non-Employee Directors” as such term is used in Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

2.2 “Common Stock” shall mean the common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of the Corporation.

2.3. “Date of Grant” shall mean the date of grant of a Stock Option granted hereunder as set forth in the Stock Option Agreement.

2.4. “Non-Employee Director” shall mean a person that is an elected or appointed member of the board of directors of a corporation, who is not a common-law employee of the corporation. The determination of whether or not a person is a Non-Employee of the Corporation with respect to the grant or exercise of a Stock Option shall be made in accordance with the rule of Income Tax Regulation Section 1.421-7(h) (or successor regulation).

2.5. “Fair Market Value” shall mean, with respect to the exercise of an option under the Plan, (a) if the Common Stock is listed on a national securities exchange or the NASDAQ Global Market, the closing price of the Common Stock for the business day immediately preceding the day of the Date of Grant, or (b) if the Common Stock is not then listed on an exchange, the average of the closing bid and asked prices per share for the Common Stock in the over-the-counter market as quoted on NASDAQ for the business day of the Date of Grant, or (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed on any exchange or quoted on NASDAQ, an amount determined in good faith by the Committee to be the fair market value of the Common Stock, after consideration of all relevant factors.

2.6 “Nonqualified Stock Option” shall mean a Stock Option, which is not intended to qualify for tax treatment as an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the Code.

2.7. “Option Exercise Price” shall mean the price paid for Shares upon the exercise of a Stock Option granted hereunder.

2.8. “Optionee” shall mean any person entitled to exercise a Stock Option pursuant to the terms of the Plan.

All questions of interpretation of the Plan or any Stock Option granted under the Plan shall be determined by the Committee, and such decisions shall be binding upon all persons having an interest in the Plan and/or any Stock Option. No member of the Committee shall be liable for any action or determination made in good faith, and the members shall be entitled to indemnification and reimbursement in the manner provided in the Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation, or as otherwise permitted by law.

3.2 RULE 16B-3 COMPLIANCE. With respect to the participation of eligible participants who are subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the Plan shall be administered in compliance with the requirements of Rule 16b-3.

3.3 SECTION 162(M) COMPLIANCE. In the event the Corporation is a “publicly held corporation” as defined in paragraph (2) of section 162(m) of the Code, as amended by the Revenue Reconciliation Act of 1993 (P.L. 103-66), and the regulations promulgated thereunder (“Section 162(m)”), the Corporation shall establish a committee of outside directors meeting the requirements of Section 162(m) to approve the grant of Stock Options which might reasonably be anticipated to result in the payment of employee remuneration that would otherwise exceed the limit on employee remuneration deductible for income tax purposes pursuant to Section 162(m).

4. ELIGIBILITY. The individuals who shall be eligible to participate in the Plan shall be such Non-Employee Directors of the Corporation, or of any corporation (“Subsidiary”) in which the Corporation has proprietary interest by reason of stock ownership or otherwise, including any corporation in which the Corporation acquires a proprietary interest after the adoption of this Plan (but only if the Corporation owns, directly or indirectly, stock possessing not less than 50% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock in the corporation), as the Committee shall determine from time to time.

5. STOCK. The stock subject to Stock Options and other provisions of the Plan shall be shares of the Corporation’s authorized but unissued Common Stock or treasury stock, as determined by the Committee. Subject to adjustment in accordance with the provisions of Subparagraph 6.7 and Subparagraph 6.8 hereof, the total number of shares of Common Stock of the Corporation on which Stock Options may be granted under the Plan subsequent to the effective date of this amended and restated Plan shall not exceed in the aggregate 65,000 shares. In the event that any outstanding Stock Option under the Plan for any reason expires or is terminated prior to the end of the period during which Stock Options may be granted, the shares of the Common Stock allocable to the unexercised portion of such Stock Option may again be subject to a Stock Option under the Plan.

6. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF STOCK OPTIONS. Stock Options granted pursuant to the Plan shall be evidenced by agreements in such form as the Committee shall, from time to time, approve. Agreements shall comply with and be subject to the following terms and conditions:

6.1 MEDIUM AND TIME OF PAYMENT. The Option Exercise Price shall be payable in United States Dollars upon the exercise of the Stock Option and may be paid in cash or by certified check, bank draft or money order payable to the order of the Corporation, unless otherwise determined by the Committee.

Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of granting a Stock Option, Stock Options shall be exercisable at the rate set forth below beginning one year from the Date of Grant. After becoming exercisable, the Stock Option may be exercised at any time and from time to time in whole or in part until termination of the Stock Option as set forth in Sections 6.4 or 6.6.

Elapsed Years from<br><br>Date of Grant Percent<br><br>of Shares Cumulative<br><br>Percent<br><br>of Shares

1 to 2 years 25 % 25 %
2 to 3 years 25 % 50 %
3 to 4 years 25 % 75 %
more than 4 years 25 % 100 %

6.6 TERMINATION OF BOARD SERVICE. In the event that an Optionee's service on the board of directors of the Corporation shall terminate, his Stock Option whether or not then exercisable shall terminate immediately; provided, however, that if the termination is not as a result of embezzlement, theft or other violation of the law, the Optionee shall have the right to exercise his option (to the extent exercisable at the time of termination) at any time within 30 days after such termination; provided, further, that if the Optionee shall die while in service on the board of directors of the Corporation or within the period of time after termination of service during which he was entitled to exercise his option as hereinabove provided, his estate, personal representative, or beneficiary shall have the right to exercise his Stock Option (to the extent exercisable at the date of death) at any time within twelve (12) months from the date of his death.

6.7 RECAPITALIZATION. The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock on which Stock Options may be granted to persons participating under the Plan, the number of shares thereof covered by each outstanding Stock Option, and the price per share thereof in each such Stock Option, shall all be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock of the Corporation resulting from a subdivision or consolidation of shares or other capital adjustment, or the payment of a stock dividend or other increase or decrease in such shares, effected without receipt of consideration by the Corporation; provided, however, that any fractional shares resulting from such adjustment shall be eliminated. In the event of a change in the Corporation's Common Stock which is limited to a change in the designation thereof to “Capital Stock” or other similar designation, or a change in the par value thereof, or from par value to no par value, without increase in the number of issued shares, the shares resulting from any such change shall be deemed to be Common Stock within the meaning of the Plan.

6.8 REORGANIZATION OF CORPORATION. Subject to any required action by the stockholders, if the Corporation shall be the surviving or resulting corporation in any merger or consolidation which does not result in change of control of the Corporation, any Stock Option granted hereunder shall pertain to and apply to the securities to which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Stock Option would have been entitled. In the event of a dissolution or liquidation of the Corporation or a merger or consolidation in which the Corporation is not the surviving or resulting corporation or which results in a change in control of the Corporation, or a tender or exchange offer which results in a change in control of the Corporation, the Committee shall determine: (i) whether all or any part of the unexercisable portion (as set forth in section 6.5) of any Stock Option outstanding under the Plan shall terminate; (ii) whether the Stock Options shall

become immediately exercisable; or (iii) whether such Stock Options may be exchanged for options covering securities of any such surviving or resulting corporation, subject to the agreement of any such surviving or resulting corporation, on terms and conditions substantially similar to a Stock Option hereunder.

6.9 ASSIGNABILITY. Except as provided in this Section, no Stock Option shall be assignable or transferable except as follows:

(a) by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.

(b) for the purpose of making a charitable gift.

(c) to the Optionee as trustee of a revocable trust which allows the Optionee to amend or revoke the trust at any time. If the Optionee relinquishes his power to amend or revoke the trust or appoints a trustee other than the Optionee, the Optionee shall withdraw the Stock Option from the trust prior to the relinquishment of such power or appointment and revest title to the Stock Option in the Optionee's individual name. If the trust becomes irrevocable due to the death of the Optionee, the successor trustee shall have the same power to exercise the Stock Option under Section 6.6 as the personal representative. If there is a successor trustee under the trust due to the incapacity of the Optionee, the date of incapacity shall be treated as termination of employment under Section 6.6, and the successor trustee shall have the same right to exercise the option as the Optionee has under Section 6.6. The trustee or any successor trustee shall be bound by all the terms and conditions of the Plan and the Stock Option Agreement entered into by the Plan and Optionee under this Plan.

(d) to the extent set forth in the Stock Option Agreement governing such Stock Option.

6.10 OPTIONEE'S AGREEMENT. If, at the time of the exercise of any Stock Option, it is necessary or desirable, in order to comply with any applicable laws or regulations relating to the sale of securities, that the Optionee exercising the Stock Option shall agree that he will purchase the shares that are subject to the Stock Option for investment and not with any present intention to resell the same, the Optionee will, upon the request of the Corporation, execute and deliver to the Corporation an agreement to such effect.

6.11 RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER. An Optionee shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to shares covered by his Stock Option until the date of issuance of the shares to him and only after such shares are fully paid.

6.12 OTHER PROVISIONS. The option agreements authorized under the Plan may contain such other provisions as the Committee shall deem advisable.

7. MARKETABILITY OF SHARES. The Common Stock is currently traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market System. As a result, its liquidity varies widely in response to supply and demand. Consequently, the Corporation can give no assurances as to the marketability of shares acquired under the Plan.

8. TAX IMPLICATIONS. It is anticipated that Stock Options granted under the Plan will be treated as Nonqualified Stock Options by the Internal Revenue Service. As such, exercise of the Stock Option would generate a taxable event with the difference between the original Option Exercise Price and the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock at the time of exercise being treated as ordinary income.

9. TERM OF PLAN. No Stock Option may be granted after December 31, 2024.

10. NO OBLIGATION TO EXERCISE OPTION. The granting of a Stock Option shall impose no obligation upon the Optionee to exercise such Stock Option.

11. AMENDMENTS. The Board of Directors may from time to time amend, alter, suspend, or discontinue the Plan or alter or amend any and all option agreements granted thereunder; provided, however, that no such action of the Board of Directors may, without approval of the stockholders of the Corporation, alter the provisions of the Plan so as to (a) materially increase the benefits accruing to participants under the Plan; (b) materially increase the number of securities which may be issued under the Plan; (c) materially modify the requirements as to eligibility for participation in the Plan; or (d) decrease the Option Exercise Price of any option exercise agreements, by cancellation and substitution of options or otherwise; and provided, further, that no amendment may, without the consent of the Optionee, affect any then outstanding Stock Options or unexercised portions thereof. In addition, the approval of the Corporation's stockholders shall be sought for any amendment to the Plan or a Stock Option for which the Committee deems stockholder approval necessary in order to comply with Rule 16b-3.”

Exhibit 10.13

BANCFIRST CORPORATION EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN

AMENDMENT TO IMPLEMENT SECURE ACT AND OTHER LAW CHANGES

ARTICLE 1

PREAMBLE

1.1 Adoption and effective date of Amendment. The Employer hereby adopts this Amendment to the Plan identified below. Each Article specifies the effective date of its provisions. Also see Section 1.5.

1.2 Superseding of inconsistent provisions. This Amendment supersedes the provisions of the Plan to the extent those provisions are inconsistent with the provisions of this Amendment. Except as otherwise provided in this Amendment, terms defined in the Plan will have the same meaning in this Amendment. Most Articles include definitions which are specific to that Article. Also see Section 1.6

1.3 Numbering. Except as otherwise provided in this Amendment, any “Section” reference in this Amendment refers only to this Amendment and is not a reference to the Plan. The Article and Section numbering in this Amendment is solely for purposes of this Amendment, and does not relate to the Plan article, section, or other numbering designations.

1.4 Intention; Construction. The purpose of this amendment is to amend the Plan in accordance with pension-related provisions of the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2019 (“FCAA”) in general, and Division O of that Act, the Setting Every Community Up for Retirement Enhancement Act of 2019 (“SECURE”), in specific. It also addresses a provision of the Bipartisan American Miners Act (“BAMA”), which is also part of FCAA, as well as a section of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES”). The provisions of this Amendment shall be interpreted and applied to be consistent with FCAA and CARES and IRS guidance issued in connection therewith, whether such guidance is issued before or after the date of this amendment.

1.5 Effect of subsequent restatement or amendment of Plan. If the Employer restates the Plan, then this Amendment shall remain in effect after such restatement unless the provisions in this Amendment are restated or otherwise become obsolete (e.g., if the Plan is restated onto a plan document which incorporates these provisions). Some Articles in this amendment may not apply to a particular plan at the time the Amendment is executed but they will apply in the future based on subsequent amendments. For example, Article 8 is limited to 401(k) plans; its provisions do not apply to a profit-sharing plan that does not have a 401(k) feature. But if that plan is subsequently amended to add a 401(k) feature, then the provisions of Article 8 (and corresponding Section 2.8) will automatically become effective at that time.

1.6 Preservation of prior amendments. If the Employer previously amended the Plan after December 20, 2019 to implement a provision contained in one or more Articles of this Amendment, that prior amendment shall remain in effect and will not be superseded by this Amendment, unless Section 1.6(a) is selected. For example, if the Employer previously adopted an amendment to implement the BAMA provisions of Article 10, that amendment remains in effect, notwithstanding the provisions of this Amendment, unless Section 1.6(a) is selected.

(a) [ ] This amendment supersedes all prior inconsistent amendments of the Plan.

3.2 No need for safe harbor notice. If the Employer makes a Safe Harbor Nonelective Contribution, then the Plan can use the ADP Safe Harbor, whether or not Participants receive a Safe Harbor Notice, and the Plan Administrator is not required to provide a Safe Harbor Notice. However, the Plan is required to provide a Safe Harbor Notice if the plan utilizes the ACP safe harbor described in Code §401(m)(11) or (12), unless the plan is a QACA.

(A) that the Employer will make a Safe Harbor Nonelective Contribution for the entire Plan Year, (B) that the Plan qualifies for the ADP Safe Harbor for the Plan Year, and (C) that the Plan will not be required to perform the ADP Test for the Plan Year. However, if the Employer adopts the amendment on or after the 30th day before the close of the Plan Year, the Safe Harbor Nonelective Contribution must be at least 4% of the Participant’s Compensation.

BIRTH/ADOPTION DISTRIBUTIONS – SECURE Act §113

4.1 Application. This Article 4 will apply only if (1) the Plan is a Defined Contribution Plan, a 403(b) Plan, or a Governmental 457(b) Plan, and (2) the Employer elects in Section 2.4(a) for this Article 4 to apply, effective on the date specified in Section 2.4(a).

4.2 Distribution Authorized. Except as limited by Section 2.4 (b), (c), (e), a Participant may request a distribution of up to $5,000 (per child or Eligible Adoptee) as a QBAD. The Participant may request the distribution whether or not the Participant has severed employment unless Section 2.4(d) is selected. This $5,000 limit shall be reduced by QBADs to the Participant made with respect to the same child or Eligible Adoptee by other plans maintained by the Employer or a related employer described in Code §414(b), (c), (m), or (o). However, if the Plan is a Money Purchase Pension Plan (or the account from which the distribution is withdrawn was transferred from a Money Purchase Pension Plan), and the Participant has not separated from service, the Participant may not take a QBAD prior to attaining the earlier of Normal Retirement Age or age 59½. The Plan Administrator may adopt a policy imposing frequency limitations or other reasonable administrative conditions for QBADs.

4.3 Definitions. The following definitions apply for this Article 4 and Section 2.4:

(a) A “QBAD” is a Qualified Birth or Adoption Distribution described in Code §72(t)(2)(H)(iii). A QBAD must be made during the 1-year period beginning on the date on which a child of the Participant is born or on which the legal adoption of an Eligible Adoptee by the Participant is finalized.

(b) An “Eligible Adoptee” is an individual, other than a child of the Participant’s spouse, who has not attained age 18 or is physically or mentally incapable of self-support. An individual is considered physically or mentally incapable of self-support if that individual is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or to be of long-continued and indefinite duration. This provision shall be applied in a manner consistent with Part D of IRS Notice 2020-68.

4.4 Rollover. A Participant who received one or more QBADs from this Plan may, if the Plan then permits the Participant to make rollover contributions, make one or more contributions in an aggregate amount not to

exceed the amount of such QBADs. The Plan will treat such a contribution as a rollover contribution made by direct trustee-to-trustee transfer within 60 days of distribution.

4.5 Reliance. The Plan Administrator may rely on an individual’s reasonable representation that the individual is eligible to receive a QBAD unless the Plan Administrator has actual knowledge to the contrary.

4.6 Status. A QBAD is not an eligible rollover distribution for purpose of the obligation to permit a direct rollover under Code §401(a)(31), the notice requirement of Code §402(f), or the mandatory withholding rules of Code §3405(c)(1).

ARTICLE 5

REQUIRED BEGINNING DATE – SECURE Act §114

5.1 Application. This Article 5 will apply to all plans, regardless of type. It is effective with regard to RMDs required to be made after December 31, 2019.

5.2 Delay of Required Beginning Date. An Affected Participant’s RBD shall not be earlier than April 1 of the calendar year following the year the Affected Participant attains age 72. For purposes of determining an Affected Participant’s RBD, an Affected Participant will be treated as a more than 5% owner if the Participant was a 5-percent owner (as defined in Code §416(i)(1)(B)) as to the Plan Year ending in the calendar year the Participant attains age 72.

5.3 Spousal Distributions. If an Affected Participant dies prior to the Participant’s RBD, and the Participant’s sole Designated Beneficiary is the Participant’s surviving spouse, then the RMDs to the surviving spouse will begin by December 31 of the calendar year immediately following the calendar year in which the Participant died, or by December 31 of the calendar year in which the Participant would have attained age 72, if later. However, this Section will apply only if the Plan, prior to this Amendment, permitted a surviving spouse to delay RMD distributions to December 31 of the calendar year in which the Participant would have attained age 70½.

5.4 Definitions. The following definitions apply for this Article 5 and Section 2.5:

(a) A Participant is an “Affected Participant” if the Participant was born after June 30, 1949.

(b) An “RMD” is a Required Minimum Distribution as described in Code §401(a)(9).

(c) A Participant’s “RBD” is the Participant’s Required Beginning Date as described in Code §401(a)(9)(C), as amplified by Section 5.2.

5.5 Optional Distribution Timing. If the Employer elects in Section 2.5(a) for this Section 5.5 to apply, the timing and form of distributions to an Affected Participant will be determined as though this Article 5 had not been adopted. Distributions pursuant to this paragraph, which are not RMDs, will be treated as eligible rollover distributions for purposes of the direct rollover provisions of Code §401(a)(31). This Section 5.5 will no longer be effective for distributions after December 31, 2021, or, if earlier, the date specified in Section 2.5(a)(2).

6.2 Effective Date. Except as provided in Section 6.4, Article 6 will apply to Participants who die on or after the Effective Date of this Article. Generally, the Effective Date of this Article is January 1, 2020. In the case of a governmental plan (as defined in Code §414(d)), the Effective Date of this Article is January 1, 2022.

SECURE Act §401(b)(2). See Section 6.5 regarding the limited application of this Article to certain accounts of Participants who died before the Effective Date of this Article.

6.3 Death before RBD. If the Participant dies before the Participant’s RBD, the Plan will distribute or commence distribution of the Participant’s Vested Accrued Benefit not later than as follows:

(a) No Designated Beneficiary If there is no Designated Beneficiary as of September 30 of the year following the calendar year of the Participant's death, the Beneficiary's entire interest will be distributed under the 5-Year Rule.

(b) Eligible Designated Beneficiary. If the distributee of a Participant’s account is an Eligible Designated Beneficiary, the Beneficiary’s entire interest will be distributed under the Life Expectancy Rule unless the 10-Year Rule applies. The Employer may elect application of the Life Expectancy rule or the 10-Year Rule in Section 2.6. In the absence of an election in Section 2.6, the Plan’s provisions with regard to election of the 5-Year Rule will apply, substituting the 10-Year Rule for the 5-Year Rule. A permitted Beneficiary election must be made no later than the earlier of December 31 of the calendar year in which distribution would be required to begin under the Life Expectancy Rule, or by December 31 of the calendar year which contains the tenth anniversary of the Participant's (or, if applicable, surviving spouse's) death.

(c) Other Designated Beneficiaries. If the distributee of the Participant’s account is a Designated Beneficiary who is not an Eligible Designated Beneficiary, then the Beneficiary’s entire interest will be distributed under the 10-Year Rule.

If distribution of a deceased Participant’s account thereof is subject to the “10-Year Rule,” then the Plan will distribute the account in full no later than December 31 of the tenth year following the year of the Participant’s death. No RMDs are required to be distributed from the account prior to that date.

6.4 Death after RBD. If the Participant dies on or after the Participant’s RBD, the Participant’s remaining interest will be distributed at least as rapidly as under the method of distribution being used as of the date of the participant's death, as provided, and determined under Treas. Reg. §1.401(a)(9)-2, Q&A 5, using the Life Expectancy Rule. If the Beneficiary is not an Eligible Designated Beneficiary, the Plan will distribute the remaining account in full no later than December 31 of the tenth year following the year of the Participant’s death.

6.5 Beneficiary Death. If an Eligible Designated Beneficiary receiving distributions under the Life Expectancy Rule dies before receiving distribution of the Beneficiary’s entire interest in the Participant’s account, the Plan will distribute that interest in full no later than December 31 of the 10th year following the year of the Eligible Designated Beneficiary’s death. Similarly, if a Participant died before the Effective Date of this Article 6, and the beneficiary died after such Effective Date, but prior to receiving full distribution of the beneficiary’s interest, the Plan will distribute that interest in full no later than December 31 of the tenth year following the year of the beneficiary’s death.

6.6 Age of Majority. If a child of the Participant was receiving distributions under the Life Expectancy rule, when the child reaches the age of Majority, the Plan will distribute the child’s account in full no later than 10 years after that date, provided the child is not otherwise an Eligible Designated Beneficiary, such as a disabled or chronically ill individual.

Certain trusts may be treated as Eligible Designated Beneficiaries pursuant to Code §401(a)(9)(H)(iv) and (v).

  3. 401(k) ADP TEST SAFE HARBOR PROVISIONS (Plan Sections 12.8 and 12.9) (skip if "ADP test safe harbor contributions" are NOT selected at Question 12.c.)

NOTE: If the Employer wants the discretion to determine whether the provisions will apply on a year‑by‑year basis, then the Employer may select 28.a. or b. and 28.d.3.

NOTE: If the Employer will make the safe harbor contribution to another plan, complete this Question 28 and mark 28.e. to specify the name of the plan to which the safe harbor contribution will be deposited.

A. ADP and ACP test safe harbor. For any Plan Year in which any type of matching contribution is made, will the "ADP and ACP test safe harbor" provisions be used?

a. [ ] No. Only the "ADP (and NOT the ACP) test safe harbor" provisions will be used.

b. [ ] Yes. Both the "ADP and ACP test safe harbor" provisions will be used for any Plan Year in which any type of matching contribution is made. (If selected, complete the provisions of the Adoption Agreement relating to Employer matching contributions (i.e., Question 29) that will apply, if any, in addition to any selections made in c. below. Also, no allocation conditions may be imposed at 29.E. unless no HCEs are eligible to receive the matching contribution)

B. Safe harbor contribution. The Employer will make the following "ADP test safe harbor contribution" for the Plan Year:

NOTE: The "ACP test safe harbor" is automatically satisfied if the only matching contribution made to the Plan is either, as described below, (1) a basic matching contribution (traditional or QACA) or (2) an enhanced matching contribution (traditional or QACA) that does not provide a match on Elective Deferrals in excess of 6% of Compensation.

c. [ ] Safe harbor matching contribution (select one of 1. ‑ 4. AND one of 5. ‑ 9.). The Employer will make matching "ADP test safe harbor contributions" to the Account of each "eligible Participant" as elected below.

  1. [ ] Traditional basic matching contribution (may not be selected if a QACA). The Employer will contribute an amount equal to the sum of 100% of the amount of the Participant's Elective Deferrals that do not exceed 3% of the Participant's Compensation, plus 50% of the amount of the Participant's Elective Deferrals that exceed 3% of the Participant's Compensation but do not exceed 5% of the Participant's Compensation.

  2. [ ] Traditional enhanced matching contribution (may not be selected if a QACA). The Employer will contribute an amount equal to the sum of:

a. [ ] % (may not be less than 100%) of the Participant's Elective Deferrals that do not exceed % (may not be less than 3% or may be less than 3% provided the rate of match will result in a matching contribution of at least 100% on Elective Deferrals up to 3%; if over 6% or if left blank, the ACP test will still apply) of the Participant's Compensation, plus

b. [ ] % of the Participant's Elective Deferrals that exceed % (must be the same % entered at a.) of the Participant's Compensation but do not exceed % (if over 6% or if left blank, the ACP test will still apply) of the Participant's Compensation, plus

c. [ ] % of the Participant's Elective Deferrals that exceed % (must be the same % entered at b.) of the Participant's Compensation but do not exceed % (if over 6% or if left blank, the ACP test will still apply) of the Participant's Compensation.

NOTE: a., b. and c. must be completed so that, at any rate of Elective Deferrals, the matching contribution is at least equal to what the matching contribution would be if the Employer were making basic matching contributions (as defined in 28.c.1. above), but the rate of match cannot increase as Elective Deferrals increase. For example, if a. is completed to provide a matching contribution equal to 100% of Elective Deferrals up to 4% of Compensation, then b. and c. need not be completed.

  1. [ ] QACA basic matching contribution. The Employer will contribute an amount equal to the sum of 100% of a Participant's Elective Deferrals that do not exceed 1% of Participant's Compensation, plus 50% of the Participant's Elective Deferrals that exceed 1% of the Participant's Compensation but do not exceed 6% of the Participant's Compensation.

  2. [ ] QACA enhanced matching contribution. The Employer will contribute an amount equal to the sum of:

a. [ ] % (may not be less than 100%) of the Participant's Elective Deferrals that do not exceed

% (may not be less than 1%; if over 6% or if left blank, the ACP test will still apply) of the Participant's Compensation, plus

b. [ ] % of the Participant's Elective Deferrals that exceed % (must be the same % entered at a.) of the Participant's Compensation but do not exceed % (if over 6% or if left blank, the ACP test will still apply) of the Participant's Compensation, plus

c. [ ] % of the Participant's Elective Deferrals that exceed % (must be the same % entered at b.) of the Participant's Compensation but do not exceed % (if over 6% or if left blank, the ACP test will still apply) of the Participant's Compensation.

NOTE: a., b. and c. must be completed so that, at any rate of Elective Deferrals, the matching contribution is at least equal to what the matching contribution would be if the Employer were making QACA basic matching contributions (as defined in 28.c.3. above), but the rate of match cannot increase as Elective Deferrals increase. For example, if a. is completed to provide a matching contribution equal to 100% of Elective Deferrals up to 4% of Compensation, then b. and c. need not be completed.

Determination period. The matching "ADP test safe harbor contribution" above will be applied on the following basis (and Elective Deferrals and any Compensation or dollar limitation used in determining the matching contribution will be based on the applicable period):

  1. [ ] the Plan Year (potential annual true-up required)

  2. [ ] each payroll period (no true-up)

  3. [ ] all payroll periods ending within each month (potential monthly true-up contribution required)

  4. [ ] all payroll periods ending within each Plan Year quarter (potential quarterly true-up required)

  5. [ ] each payroll unit (e.g., hour) (no true-up)

d. [ ] Safe harbor nonelective contributions (select one)

  1. [ ] 3% contribution. The Employer will make a nonelective "ADP test safe harbor contribution" for the Plan Year to the Account of each "eligible Participant" in an amount equal to 3% of each Participant's Compensation.

  2. [ ] Stated contribution. The Employer will make a nonelective "ADP test safe harbor contribution" to the Account of each "eligible Participant" in an amount equal to % (may not be less than 3%) of each Participant's Compensation.

  3. [ ] "Maybe" election. The Employer may elect to make a nonelective "ADP test safe harbor contribution" after a Plan Year has commenced in accordance with the provisions of Plan Section 12.8(h). If this option d.3. is selected, the nonelective "ADP test safe harbor contribution" will be required only for a Plan Year for which the Plan is amended to provide for such contribution and the appropriate supplemental notice is provided to Participants.

e. [ ] Safe harbor contribution to another Plan. The Employer will make a nonelective or matching "ADP test safe harbor contribution" to another defined contribution plan maintained by the Employer (specify the complete name of the other plan):

.

C. Excluded Participants. For purposes of the "ADP test safe harbor contribution," the term "eligible Participant" means any Participant who is eligible to make Elective Deferrals unless otherwise excluded below (leave blank if no exclusions):

f. [ ] Exclusions (select one or more):

  1. [ ] Highly Compensated Employees (HCEs). The Employer may, however, make a discretionary "ADP test safe harbor contribution" and/or "ACP test safe harbor contribution" for any or all HCEs in a percentage that does not exceed the amount (or in the case of a matching "ADP test safe harbor contribution," the rate) provided to the NHCEs.

  2. [ ] Employees who have not satisfied the greatest minimum age and service conditions permitted under Code §410(a) (i.e., age 21 and 1 Year of Service), with the following deemed effective date of participation (if selected, the top-heavy exemption in Plan Section 12.8(f) will not apply):

a. [ ] the earlier of the first day of the first month or the first day of the seventh month of the Plan Year immediately following the date such conditions are satisfied

b. [ ] the first day of the Plan Year in which the requirements are met

c. [ ] other: (not later than the earlier of (a) 6 months after such requirements are satisfied, or (b) the first day of the first Plan Year after such requirements are satisfied)

  1. [ ] Union Employees (as defined in Plan Section 1.27)

  2. [ ] Other: (must be an HCE or an Employee who can be excluded under the permissive or mandatory disaggregation rules of Regulations §§1.401(k)‑1(b)(4) and 1.401(m)‑1(b)(4); e.g., Employees who have not completed 6 months of service)

D. Special effective dates (may be left blank if no special effective dates need to be specified in this Plan) (select all that apply)

g. [ ] Safe harbor provisions (other than QACA). The "ADP and ACP test safe harbor" provisions are effective as of:

(enter the date the provisions are effective and, if necessary, enter any other special effective dates that apply with respect to the provisions; generally must be the first day of a Plan Year or the date Elective Deferrals are first permitted).

h. [ ] QACA provisions. The QACA provisions are effective as of: (enter the date the provisions are effective and, if necessary, enter any other special effective dates that apply with respect to the provisions; generally must be the first day of a Plan Year or the date Elective Deferrals are first permitted)

i. [ ] Other: (If there are multiple retroactive special effective dates, complete this Question 28 based on the current Plan provisions and then duplicate this Question 28 and attach as an Appendix to indicate the special retroactive effective dates and provisions that applied.)

E. Elective Deferrals considered for matching contribution. If a matching contribution is selected above, then the Plan will disregard a Participant's Elective Deferrals that are made prior to the date the matching contribution component of the Plan is effective with respect to such Participant unless otherwise elected below.

j. [ ] The Plan will include a Participant's Elective Deferrals that are made prior to the date the matching contribution component of the Plan is effective with respect to such Participant.

  1. EMPLOYER MATCHING CONTRIBUTIONS (Plan Section 12.1(a)(2) and Plan Section 12.12) (skip if matching contributions are NOT selected at Question 12.d.)

If the "ACP test safe harbor" provisions are being used (i.e., Question 28.b. is selected), then the Plan will only take into account Elective Deferrals up to 6% of Compensation in applying the matching contribution set forth below and the maximum discretionary matching contribution that may be made on behalf of any Participant is 4% of Compensation.

A. Matching formula.

a. [ ] Employer matching contribution as follows (select 1. or 2.):

  1. [ ] Flexible Discretionary Match. A "Flexible Discretionary Match" means a Matching Contribution which the Employer in its sole discretion elects to make to the Plan. Except as specified below, the Employer retains discretion over the formula or formulas for allocating the Flexible Discretionary Match, including the Discretionary Matching Contribution rate or amount, the limit(s) on Elective Deferrals or Employee Contributions subject to match, the per Participant match allocation limit(s), the Participants or categories of Participants who will receive the allocation, and the time period applicable to any matching formula(s) (collectively, the "Flexible Discretionary Matching Formula"), except as the Employer otherwise elects in its Adoption Agreement. Such contributions will be subject to the Instructions and Notice requirement of Section 12.12, reproduced below, unless the Employer elects to use a "Rigid Discretionary Match" in Election 29.A.a.1.a. below.

The discretionary matching contribution under this Question 29.A.a. is a "Flexible Discretionary Match" unless the Employer elects to use a "Rigid Discretionary Match." (Choose a. if applicable.)

a. [ ] Rigid Discretionary Match. A "Rigid Discretionary Match" means a Matching Contribution which the Employer in its sole discretion elects to make to the Plan. Such discretion

will only pertain to the amount of the annual contribution. The Employer must select the allocation method for this Contribution by selecting among those Adoption Agreement options which confer no Employer Discretion regarding the allocation of such discretionary amount, for example, the limit(s) on Elective Deferrals or Employee Contributions subject to match, the per Participant match allocation limit(s), the Participants who will receive the allocation, and the time period applicable to any matching formula(s). This "Rigid Discretionary Match" is not subject to the Instructions and Notice requirement of Section 12.12.

Section 12.12 provides: INSTRUCTIONS TO ADMINISTRATOR AND NOTIFICATION TO PARTICIPANTS. For Plan Years beginning after the end of the Plan Year in which this document is first adopted, if a "Flexible Discretionary Match" contribution formula applies (i.e., a formula that provides an Employer with discretion regarding how to allocate a matching contribution to Participants) and the Employer makes a "Flexible Discretionary Match" to the Plan, the Employer must provide the Plan Administrator or Trustee written instructions describing (1) how the "Flexible Discretionary Match" formula will be allocated to Participants (e.g., a uniform percentage of Elective Deferrals or a flat dollar amount), (2) the computation period(s) to which the "Flexible Discretionary Match" formula applies, and (3) if applicable, a description of each business location or business classification subject to separate "Flexible Discretionary Match" allocation formulas. Such instructions must be provided no later than the date on which the "Flexible Discretionary Match" is made to the Plan. A summary of these instructions must be communicated to Participants who receive an allocation of the "Flexible Discretionary Match" no later than 60 days following the date on which the last "Flexible Discretionary Match" contribution is made to the Plan for the Plan Year.

  1. [ ] Fixed ‑ uniform rate/amount. The Employer will make matching contributions equal to % (e.g., 50) of the Participant's Elective Deferrals, plus (select a. or leave blank if not applicable):

a. [ ] an additional matching contribution of a discretionary percentage determined by the Employer,

  1. [ ] but not to exceed % of Compensation (leave blank if not applicable). Such contribution is subject to the Instructions and Notice requirement of Section 12.12.

Matching limit on Elective Deferrals. In determining the Employer matching contribution above, only the following will be matched. Elective Deferrals up to (select 3. OR 4.; leave blank if not applicable):

  1. [ ] the percentage or dollar amount specified below (select one or both)

a. [ ] % of a Participant's Compensation.

b. [ ] $ .

  1. [ ] a discretionary percentage of a Participant's Compensation or a discretionary dollar amount, the percentage or dollar amount to be determined by the Employer on a uniform basis for all Participants. Such contribution is subject to the Instructions and Notice requirement of Section 12.12.

b. [ ] Discretionary ‑ tiered. The Employer may make matching contributions equal to a discretionary percentage of a Participant's Elective Deferrals, to be determined by the Employer, of each tier, to be determined by the Employer. The tiers may be based on the rate of a Participant's Elective Deferrals or Years of Service. Such contribution is subject to the Instructions and Notice requirement of Section 12.12.

c. [ ] Fixed ‑ tiered. The Employer will make matching contributions equal to a uniform percentage of each tier of each Participant's Elective Deferrals, determined as follows:

NOTE: Fill in only percentages or dollar amounts, but not both. If percentages are used, each tier represents the amount of the Participant's applicable contributions that equals the specified percentage of the Participant's Compensation (add additional tiers if necessary):

Tiers of Contributions<br><br>(indicate $ or %) Matching Percentage
First _____ ______%
Next _____ ______%
Next _____ ______%
Next _____ ______%

d. [ ] Fixed ‑ Years of Service. The Employer will make matching contributions equal to a uniform percentage of each Participant's Elective Deferrals based on the Participant's Years of Service (or Periods of Service if the elapsed time method is selected), determined as follows (add additional tiers if necessary):

Years (or Periods) of Service Matching Percentage
______ ______%
______ ______%
______ ______%

For purposes of the above matching contribution formula, a Year (or Period) of Service means a Year (or Period) of Service for:

  1. [ ] vesting purposes

  2. [ ] eligibility purposes

In determining the Employer matching contribution above, only Elective Deferrals up to the percentage or dollar amount specified below will be matched (select all that apply; leave blank if not applicable):

  1. [ ] % of a Participant's Compensation.

  2. [ ] $ .

e. [ ] Other: (the formula described must satisfy the definitely determinable requirement under Reg. §1.401‑1(b). The Employer may only describe the matching formula from the elections available in this Question 29, and/or a combination thereof, as to a Participant group (e.g., Fixed Match of 50% of elective deferrals of deferrals up to 6% of annual compensation applies to Collective Bargaining Employees; Discretionary Match allocated each payroll period applies to all other Participants)). If the formula is non uniform, it is not a design based safe harbor for nondiscrimination purposes. Such contribution is subject to the Instructions and Notice requirement of Section 12.12.

NOTE: If a.1., b., c., d., or e. above is selected, the Plan may violate the Code §401(a)(4) nondiscrimination requirements if the rate of matching contributions increases as a Participant's Elective Deferrals or Years (or Periods) of Service increase.

Maximum matching contribution. (leave blank if not applicable)

f. [ ] The matching contribution made on behalf of any Participant for any Plan Year will not exceed (select 1. or 2.):

  1. [ ] $ .

  2. [ ] % of Compensation.

B. Date of Elective Deferrals considered for matching contribution. The Plan will disregard a Participant's Elective Deferrals that are made prior to the date the matching contribution component of the Plan is effective with respect to such Participant unless otherwise elected below.

g. [ ] The Plan will include a Participant's Elective Deferrals that are made prior to the date the matching contribution component of the Plan is effective with respect to such Participant.

C. Period of determination. Matching contribution other than a "Flexible Discretionary Match" will be applied on the following basis (and Elective Deferrals and any Compensation or dollar limitation used in determining the matching contribution will be based on the applicable period. Skip if the only Matching Contribution is a Flexible Discretionary Match.):

h. [ ] the Plan Year (potential annual true-up required)

i. [ ] each payroll period (no true-up)

j. [ ] all payroll periods ending within each month (potential monthly true-up required)

k. [ ] all payroll periods ending within each Plan Year quarter (potential quarterly true-up required)

l. [ ] each payroll unit (e.g., hour) (no true-up)

m. [ ] Other (specify): . The time period described must be definitely determinable under Treas. Reg. §1.401-1(b). This line may be used to apply different options to different matching contributions (e.g., Discretionary matching contributions will be allocated on a Plan Year period while fixed matching contributions will be allocated on each payroll period.) Such contribution period is subject to the Instructions and Notice requirement of Section 12.12.

D. QMACs (Plan Section 1.71). The matching contributions will NOT be Qualified Matching Contributions (QMACs) unless otherwise selected below (leave blank if not applicable).

n. [ ] The matching contributions will be QMACs (fully Vested and subject to restrictions on withdrawals as set forth in the Plan). Such contributions may be used in either the ADP or ACP test.

E. Allocation conditions (Plan Section 12.3). Select o. OR p. and all that apply of q. ‑ w. (Note: If the "ACP test safe harbor" provisions are being used (Question 28.b.), option o. below (no conditions) must be selected, unless no HCEs are eligible to receive the matching contribution.)

o. [ ] No conditions. All Participants share in the allocations regardless of service completed during the Plan Year or employment status on the last day of the Plan Year (skip p. - w.).

p. [ ] Allocation conditions apply (select one of 1. - 5. AND one of 6. - 9. below)

Conditions for Participants NOT employed on the last day of the Plan Year.

  1. [ ] Required Service During the Plan Year:

A Participant must complete at least (not to exceed 6; if more than 3 is entered then the Plan could violate coverage requirements under Code §410(b)) months of service if the elapsed time method is selected.

  1. [ ] A Participant must complete a Year of Service (or Period of Service if the elapsed time method is selected). (could cause the Plan to violate coverage requirements under Code §410(b))

  2. [ ] Participants will NOT share in the allocations, regardless of service. (could cause the Plan to violate coverage requirements under Code §410(b))

  3. [ ] Participants will share in the allocations, regardless of service.

  4. [ ] Other: (must be definitely determinable, not subject to Employer discretion and may not require more than one Year of Service (or Period of Service if the elapsed time method is selected). The exclusions entered into the blank/fill-in cannot result in the group of NHCEs participating under the plan being only those NHCEs with the lowest amount of compensation and/ or the shortest periods of service and who may represent the minimum number of these employees necessary to satisfy coverage under Code §410(b)).

Conditions for Participants employed on the last day of the Plan Year (options 7., 8. and 9. could cause the Plan to violate coverage requirements under Code §410(b))

  1. [ ] No service requirement.

If p.1., 2., 3., 5. and/or p.7., 8. or 9. is selected, the Code §410(b) ratio percentage fail‑safe provisions (Plan Section 12.3(f)) will NOT apply unless selected below (leave blank if not applicable or fail‑safe will not be used and the employer will utilize the corrective amendment procedure of 1.401(a)(4)-11(g) when necessary):

t. [ ] The Plan will use the Code §410(b) fail‑safe provisions and must satisfy the "ratio percentage test" of Code §410(b).

Conditions based on period other than Plan Year. The allocation conditions above will be applied based on the Plan Year unless otherwise selected below. If selected, the above provisions will be applied by substituting the term Plan Year with the specified period (e.g., if Plan Year quarter is selected below and the allocation condition is 250 Hours of Service per quarter, enter 250 hours (not 1000) at p.8. above).

F. Additional matching contributions. No additional matching contribution may be made unless otherwise selected below (leave blank if not applicable).

x. [ ] Additional matching contributions may be made (e.g., a matching contribution made on a periodic basis as well as a matching contribution based on the end of the Plan Year). Specify the additional matching contribution by attaching an addendum to the Adoption Agreement that duplicates this entire Question 29. If selected, the additional

matching contribution applies to all Participants eligible to share in matching contributions except as otherwise specified in the addendum or below. Such contribution is subject to the Instructions and Notice requirement of Section 12.12 if the Employer chooses to retain discretion over any aspect of the allocation of such contribution.

  1. [ ] The additional matching contribution only applies to the following Participants: (must be definitely determinable). (If the additional matching contribution is in lieu of the matching contribution set forth in 29A ‑ E above then use Eligible Employee question to exclude these Participants from such matching contribution.)

  2. EMPLOYER NONELECTIVE CONTRIBUTIONS (Plan Section 12.1(a)(3)) (skip Questions 30 and 31 if Employer Nonelective contributions are NOT selected at Question 12.e.)

NOTE: ESOPs may not test on an equivalent benefits basis to pass nondiscrimination under Code §401(a)(4).

c. [ ] Prevailing wage contribution. In the non-ESOP portion of the Plan, the Employer will make a "prevailing wage contribution" on behalf of each Participant who performs services subject to the Service Contract Act, Davis‑Bacon Act or similar federal, state, or municipal prevailing wage statutes. The "prevailing wage contribution" will be an amount equal to the remaining balance of the prevailing wage defined bona‑fide fringe benefit amount, based on the Participant's employment classification as designated on the appropriate prevailing wage determination, after the application of other prevailing wage defined bona‑fide fringe payments. Specify the "prevailing wage contribution" by attaching an appendix to the Adoption Agreement that indicates the contribution rate(s) applicable to the prevailing wage employment/job classification(s). The "prevailing wage contribution" will not be subject to any age or service requirements set forth in Question 14, entry date provisions at Question 15, nor to any service or employment conditions set forth in Question 31 and will be 100% Vested.

Additional "prevailing wage contribution" provisions (select all that apply; leave blank if none apply)

d. [ ] Other: (the formula described must satisfy the definitely determinable requirement under Reg. §1.401‑1(b). If the formula is non-uniform, it is not a design-based safe harbor for nondiscrimination purposes.)

B. Contribution allocations. The Employer Nonelective Contribution for a Plan Year will be allocated as follows (skip if the only selection above is c.) (select one or more):

e. [ ] INCORPORATION OF CONTRIBUTION FORMULA. In accordance with the contribution formula specified above (may not be selected if a., b.4, b.5, or d. are the only selections above; if both a fixed and discretionary contribution are selected above, then this option e. applies to the fixed contribution).

  2. [ ] in the same dollar amount to all Participants (per capita)

  3. [ ] in the same dollar amount per Hour of Service completed by each Participant

g. [ ] NON‑SAFE HARBOR ALLOCATION METHODS. The language of any formula created in this Section 30.B.g. must require the Employer to notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of the Employer contribution being given to each group.

  1. [ ] Grouping method. Pursuant to Plan Section 4.3(b)(3)(v), the classifications are (select a. or b.):

The design of the groups cannot be such that the only NHCEs benefiting under the Plan are those with the lowest amount of Compensation and/or the shortest periods of service and who may represent the minimum number of these Employees necessary to satisfy coverage under Code §410(b).

Classification A will consist of _______________________________

The allocation method will be: [ ] pro rata based on Compensation

[ ] equal dollar amounts (per capita)

Classification B will consist of _______________________________

The allocation method will be: [ ] pro rata based on Compensation

[ ] equal dollar amounts (per capita)

[ ] equal dollar amounts (per capita)

Classification D will consist of _______________________________

The allocation method will be: [ ] pro rata based on Compensation

[ ] equal dollar amounts (per capita)

Additional classifications:________ (specify the classifications and which of the above allocation methods (pro rata or per capita) will be used for each classification).

NOTE: If more than four (4) classifications, the additional classifications and allocation methods may be attached as an addendum to the Adoption Agreement or may be entered under Additional Classifications above.

Determination of applicable group. If a Participant shifts from one classification to another during a Plan Year, then unless selected below, the Participant is in a classification based on the Participant's status as of the last day of the Plan Year, or if earlier, the date of termination of employment. If selected below, the Administrator will apportion the Participant's allocation during a Plan Year based on the following:

  1. [ ] Beginning of Plan Year. The classification will be based on the Participant's status as of the beginning of the Plan Year.

  2. [ ] Months in each classification. Pro rata based on the number of months the Participant spent in each classification.

  3. [ ] Days in each classification. Pro rata based on the number of days the Participant spent in each classification.

  4. [ ] One classification only. The Employer in a nondiscriminatory manner will direct the Administrator to place the Participant in only one classification for the entire Plan Year during which the shift occurs.

h. [ ] OTHER: NOTE: Under Question 30.B.h., the Employer will describe the allocation of Nonelective Contributions from the elections available under Question 30.B. and/or a combination thereof as to a Participant group or contribution type (e.g., pro rata allocation applies to Collective Bargaining Employees; contributions to other Employees will be allocated in accordance with the classifications allocation provisions of Plan Section 4.3(b)(2) with each Participant constituting a separate classification). (The following four parameters must be met to utilize this section: 1. The formula described must satisfy the definitely determinable requirement under Reg. §1.401‑1(b)(1)(ii). 2. The groups cannot be designed in such a manner to where the only NHCEs participating are those NHCEs with the lowest amounts of compensation and/or the shortest periods of service and who may represent the minimum number of these employees necessary to satisfy coverage under IRC §410(b). 3. The language of the formula must require the employer to notify the trustee in writing of the amount of the employer contribution being given to each group. 4. In the case of self-employed individuals (i.e., sole proprietorships or partnerships), the requirements of Regs.

§1.401(k)-1(a)(6) continue to apply and the allocation method should not be such that a cash or deferred election is created for a self-employed individual as a result of the application of the allocation method unless such election has been created for all eligible employees & the full 401(k) requirements have been provided. If the formula is non‑uniform, it is not a design‑based safe harbor for nondiscrimination purposes.)

NOTE: ESOPs may not test on an equivalent benefits basis to pass nondiscrimination under Code §401(a)(4). In addition, ESOPs cannot be integrated directly or indirectly with contributions or benefits under Title II of the Social Security Act or any other State or Federal law (Regulation §54.4975-11(a)(7)(ii)).

Exhibit 31.1

CEO’S CERTIFICATION PURSUANT TO RULE 13a-14(a) OR RULE 15d-14(a)

I, David Harlow, certify that:

1. I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-Q of BancFirst Corporation;

2. Based on my knowledge, this quarterly report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this quarterly report;

3. Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial information included in this quarterly report, fairly present in all material respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this quarterly report;

4. The registrant’s other certifying officer and I are responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a – 15 (e) and 15d – 15(e)) and internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a – 15(f) and 15d – 15(f)) for the registrant and have:
