Item 8.01.                      Other Events.

On January 18, 2011, the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Pacific Continental Corporation (the “Company”) adopted a policy for the recovery of incentive compensation under certain circumstances, or “clawback policy”, and also adopted new stock ownership and retention guidelines, requiring executive officers and non-employee directors to retain all of the net shares acquired from equity awards until they own a minimum amount of stock, calculated as a multiple of base salary or base Board retainer, as applicable, and further requiring them to hold 75% of net shares acquired from equity awards for at least two years after satisfying ownership guidelines.

Clawback Policy

Under the clawback policy, the Company will recover incentive compensation awarded to current or former executive officers (during the preceding three years) if the Company restates its financial results due to material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, to the extent the original awards exceeded the amounts that would have been paid under the restated results.

Stock Ownership and Retention Guidelines

Under the stock ownership guidelines, executives and non-employee directors must use the net shares acquired from equity awards (after satisfying applicable taxes and exercise prices) to establish and maintain a significant level of direct ownership of Pacific Continental stock. Executive officers and directors must hold shares with the following values before they can sell any net shares acquired from equity awards:  for the CEO, three times average annual base salary over the prior three years; for other executive officers, one times their base salary; and for non-employee directors, two times the base cash retainer for serving on the Board.  Once these minimum stock ownership thresholds are attained, executives and non-employee directors are further required to retain 75% of all net shares acquired from equity a wards for a period of two years.
