Election of Mark L. Drew to the Board of Directors
On December 6, 2016, the Board of Directors (the "Board") of National Commerce Corporation (the "Company"), in accordance with the Company's Bylaws and upon the recommendation of the Board's Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, unanimously voted to increase the size of the Board from fourteen (14) to fifteen (15) directors and to elect Mark L. Drew to fill the vacancy created by the increase in the size of the Board, effective as of January 1, 2017.  Although there are currently thirteen (13) members of the Board, the Board has previously approved a contingent increase in the size of the Board from thirteen (13) to fourteen (14) directors upon the effectiveness of the Company's currently pending merger with Private Bancshares, Inc. The Board also appointed Mr. Drew to serve on the Audit Committee of the Board.  Mr. Drew will also serve on the Board of Directors of National Bank of Commerce, the Company's wholly-owned banking subsidiary (the "Bank").
There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Drew and any other person pursuant to which he was appointed to the positions with the Company and the Bank described above.  Additionally, there are no related person transactions involving Mr. Drew and the Company that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").
The Board has affirmatively determined that Mr. Drew is independent under Nasdaq listing standards and is otherwise qualified to serve on the Board and the Audit Committee.  Mr. Drew  will receive the compensation described in the section titled "Executive Officer and Director Compensation – Director Compensation" included in the Company's Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed with the SEC on April 22, 2016, as the same may be adjusted by the Board from time to time.
Indemnification Agreement
In connection with his election as a director of the Company, Mr. Drew entered into an indemnification agreement with the Company (an "Indemnification Agreement"), to be effective as of and subject to the commencement of Mr. Drew's service as a director. The form of the Indemnification Agreement has been approved previously by the Board and entered into by each of the Company's current directors and executive officers. The Indemnification Agreement requires the Company to indemnify Mr. Drew to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law and is in addition to protections provided in the Company's Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws. Under the Indemnification Agreement, Mr. Drew will be indemnified for certain liabilities and will be advanced certain expenses that have been incurred as a result of actions brought, or threatened to be brought, against him in connection with his duties. The Indemnification Agreement also contains various covenants by the Company as to the maintenance of directors' and officers' liability insurance.
This description of the Indemnification Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of Indemnification Agreement, which is incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Item 8.01.

On December 6, 2016, the Company issued a press release announcing the election of Mr. Drew to the Boards of Directors of the Company and the Bank, which press release contains additional biographical information about Mr. Drew.  A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
