Its membership is comprised of Directors Ellenberger (who serves as Chairman), Baker, Darrow, Hillesheim, Lieder, Ormsbee, Swadling and VanAntwerp. All members qualify as "independent directors" under the NYSE listing standards. Under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and implementing Securities and Exchange Commission rules, the Corporation is required to disclose whether the Audit Committee has at least one member who qualifies as an "audit committee financial expert" as that term is defined in the rules. Based on the exacting criteria set forth in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules, the Board of Directors has determined that no independent member of the Board of Directors qualifies as an "audit committee financial expert". The present members of the Audit Committee have 94 years of combined service on the Audit Committee. All of the members are financially literate and at least one of the members has expertise in accounting and other aspects of financial management. Considering this experience and expertise and other relevant issues, the Board of Directors believes that the Audit Committee can effectively fulfill its duties and obligations and has determined that appointing an additional director or retaining an individual who would meet the qualifications of an "audit committee financial expert" is neither necessary nor reasonable at this time. The Audit Committee meets at least quarterly each year and more frequently as circumstances may require. The Audit Committee met 7 times during 2007. The Audit Committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board of Directors, a copy of which is attached as Appendix A to this Proxy Statement. The Board of Directors of the Corporation does not have a standing compensation or nominating committee. The Board of Directors believes that, given its relatively small size and with eight of its ten current members qualifying as "independent directors" under the NYSE listing standards, it is appropriate for the entire Board of Directors to serve in the capacity of a compensation and nominating committee. The Board of Directors does not have a charter or other formal written policy with regard to its function as a compensation or nominating committee. Traditionally all directors of the Corporation also serve as the Board of Directors of the Bank; therefore, director nominees must meet the qualifications for national bank directors set forth in 12 USC Sec. 72. Based on those qualifications and Comptroller of the Currency and corporate governance guidelines, the Board of Directors has developed criteria to be used in considering individual director candidates. Consideration of factors relative to the size and composition of the Board of Directors will vary according to the expertise and demographics of the existing Board. In making nominations for election to the Board of Directors, the Board of Directors will consider director candidates recommended by shareholders. Any director candidate recommended by shareholders will be reviewed and evaluated in the same manner as all other director candidates. Under the Bylaws of the Corporation, nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors may be made by any shareholder entitled to vote at a meeting at which one or more directors will be elected by submitting written notice of any nomination to the Secretary of the Corporation. The notice must be received at the principal business office of the Corporation not less 7 than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the scheduled date of the annual meeting, regardless of any postponements, deferrals or adjournments of that meeting to a later date. In the case of a special meeting of the shareholders or in the event that the date of the applicable annual meeting is changed by more than 30 days from its scheduled date, a shareholder's notice must be received no later than the close of business on the 10th day following the earlier of the day on which notice of the meeting date was mailed or the day public disclosure of the meeting was made. The notice must set forth or include (1) the name and address, as they appear on the records of the Corporation, of the shareholder giving the notice; (2) a representation that the shareholder giving the notice is a holder of record entitled to vote at such meeting and intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to nominate the person or persons specified in the notice; (3) the class and number of shares of the capital stock of the Corporation beneficially owned and of record by the shareholder giving the notice; (4) any material interest or relationship that the shareholder giving the notice may have with each proposed nominee; (5) the name, address, age, principal occupation or employment, and such other information for each proposed nominee as would be required to be included in a proxy statement filed pursuant to the proxy rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission had the nominee been nominated, or intended to be nominated, by the Board of Directors; and (6) a signed consent of each proposed nominee to serve as a director of the Corporation if so elected. As noted above, all directors of the Corporation also serve as the Board of Directors of the Bank. The Board of Directors of the Corporation held a total of 7 meetings during 2007, including the organizational meeting. The Board of Directors of the Bank held a total of 25 meetings during 2007, including the organizational meeting. All directors attended 75% or more of the aggregate number of meetings of the two Boards and the Audit Committee, except for Mr. VanAntwerp who attended 42%. There are no family relationships between or among any of the directors, nominees or executive officers of the Corporation. The directors of the Corporation are expected to attend the Annual Meeting of Shareholders with the organizational meeting of the newly elected Board of Directors being held immediately after the shareholders' meeting as provided in the Bylaws. All directors attended the 2007 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS All directors elected prior to January 1, 1994 participate in the Citizens National Bank of Cheboygan 1985 Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan in lieu of current payment of director fees. The plan was adopted by the Bank in 1985 and in 1993 participation in the plan was closed to directors elected after January 1, 1994. The plan is a defined benefit plan and provides for retirement and death benefits to be paid to the participating directors by the Bank over a minimum of fifteen years. The plan assumes a retirement age of 70 and uses a 6.00% discount rate in calculating the change in plan value each year. The Bank is the owner and beneficiary of life insurance policies which are structured to fund the Bank's obligations under the terms of the plan. Directors elected after January 1, 1994, may participate in the Citizens National Bank of Cheboygan 1997 Deferred Compensation Plan. The plan was adopted by the Bank effective 8 September 1, 1997. The plan permits deferral of all or any portion of current director fees. Amounts deferred are credited with interest at a rate equal to the Bank's "yield on earning assets" as calculated at year end of the prior year. Upon separation for any reason of the services of a participating director from the Bank, the director will be entitled to receive the balance of his or her account in equal installments over a period of ten years or lump sum if approved by the Board of Directors. During 2007 directors participating in the 1985 Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan received a deferred annual retainer of $4,000 for service on the Board of Directors of the Corporation and the Bank. Directors not eligible to participate in the 1985 Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan received a quarterly retainer of $2,575 for service on the two Boards. The Chairman of the Board received an additional $375 and the Chairman of the Audit Committee received an additional $250 quarterly retainer. Directors are not separately compensated for attendance at Board or Committee meetings, but are reimbursed for travel expenses for meetings attended. 2007 DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

The Corporation provides cash bonuses to advance the interest of shareholders and is commensurate with the Corporation's performance. The Corporation's compensation program for executive officers is administered by the entire Board of Directors, as well as Susan A. Eno, President & Chief Executive Officer. At present, all officers of the Corporation, with the exception of Mr. Hillesheim, the Corporation's Chairman, are also officers of the Bank, and although they receive compensation from the Bank in their capacity as officers of the Bank, they receive no separate compensation from the Corporation. Mr. Hillesheim received no compensation as Chairman of the Corporation. The executive officers serve as officers of the Corporation as an incident to their primary service as officers and employees of the subsidiary bank and they receive no compensation directly from the Corporation. The Board of Directors of the Bank (which is comprised of the same members as the Board of Directors of the Corporation) has the authority and responsibility for setting compensation for the Bank's officers, including those officers who also serve as officers of the Corporation. COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY AND OBJECTIVES The Board of Directors has developed and implemented compensation plans which seek to align the financial interests of the Corporation's senior officers with those of its shareholders. The Corporation's executive compensation program is comprised of two primary components: base salary and annual cash bonuses. Longer-term incentive opportunities in the form of stock option awards have also been awarded in the past. The stock option plan ended in May, 2006 and there are currently no options in effect that allow further granting. Senior Vice President and above officers are eligible to participate in the Bank's 1997 Deferred Compensation Plan. To attract and retain officers with exceptional abilities and talent, annual base salaries are set to provide competitive levels of compensation recognizing individual performance and achievements. Annual cash bonuses are used to reward senior officers and other key employees relating to the performance of the Corporation. In evaluating the performance of and determining the annual base salary and cash bonus for the Chief Executive Officer and other senior management, the Board of Directors takes into account management's contribution to the long-term success of the Corporation. The Board of Directors considers return to shareholders to be primary in measuring financial performance. The mission of the Corporation is to maximize long-term return to shareholders in the form of stock appreciation and dividends consistent with its commitments to maintain the safety and soundness of the Corporation and the Bank and provide the highest possible service at a fair price to the customers and communities that it serves. The Board of Directors has taken these subjective and qualitative factors into account, along with other quantitative measures of corporate performance, in 10 establishing the annual base salary and cash bonus for the Chief Executive Officer and the Corporation's other members of senior management. The Board of Directors primarily considers five quantitative measures of corporate performance in establishing the compensation to be paid to the Chief Executive Officer and the Corporation's other senior management. These measures of corporate performance are: (i) after-tax earnings and earnings growth; (ii) capital position; (iii) quality of the Bank's loan portfolio; (iv) targeted as compared to actual operating performance; and (v) the Corporation's performance and financial condition as compared to that of its Federal Reserve Bank peer group. The Board of Directors also takes into consideration compensation levels at comparable financial institutions based on various general and targeted compensation surveys of peer group commercial banks with total assets between $100 and $500 million and located in the Midwest United States and the state of Michigan. The Board of Directors goal is to effectively balance salaries with potential compensation that is performance based commensurate with an officer's individual management responsibilities and potential for future contribution to corporate objectives. BENCHMARKING The Board of Directors reviews information regarding the compensation levels of other financial institutions, including compensation and benefits surveys published by the Michigan Bankers Association, Crowe Chizek and Company LLC and Bank Administrative Institute. The Bank considers itself to be in line with peers within Michigan and the Midwest, which includes the states of Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and Wisconsin. ELEMENTS OF COMPENSATION As noted above, the Bank's compensation program for the Chief Executive Officer and the Corporation's other senior management is comprised of two fundamental elements: (1) base salary and (2) annual cash bonuses. The Board of Directors determines the annual base salary and cash bonus for the Chief Executive Officer. Annual base salary and cash bonuses with respect to the Corporation's other senior officers are recommended by the Chief Executive Officer to, and ultimately determined by, the Board of Directors. All recommendations of the Chief Executive Officer were approved by the Board of Directors for the most recent calendar year. Base Pay. Base compensation for executive officers is predicated primarily on competitive circumstance for managerial talent and positions reflecting comparable responsibility. Annual Cash Bonuses. Annual cash bonuses are used to reward executive and senior officers for the Corporation's overall financial performance. At the end of each year the Corporation's performance goal for the following year's bonuses are established and is based upon the level of net income for the Corporation. Corporation performance bonuses were paid to Mr. Conboy ($61,700), Ms. Eno ($15,440) and Mr. Damm ($15,440) as a result of the Corporation's 2007 performance. 11 Perquisites and Other Executive Benefits. Consistent with our compensation philosophy, we intend to continue to maintain our current benefits for our executive officers, including medical, dental, vision, prescription, group term life insurance coverage, disability coverage, Defined Benefit Pension Plan and the ability to contribute to a 401(k) Savings Plan with a Bank match. These benefits are generally provided to all employees on a non-discriminatory basis. We believe these benefits are currently at or above median competitive benefits levels for comparable companies. In addition to the above benefits, certain executive officers are provided automobiles for their use relating to business travels. These automobiles are also driven for personal use and the portion of the travel related to personal use of the automobiles is included in the All Other Compensation column in the Summary Compensation Table along with the other perquisites and their related values. The Bank does not have employment agreements with any of the Named Executive Officers. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION SUMMARY COMPENSATION TABLE The following table sets forth the compensation received by the named executives during 2007. The Corporation's stock option plan ended in May, 2006.

The Company's stock option plan ended in May 2006 and a new stock option plan has not been adopted. All previously awarded stock options were vested prior to 2007. There were no option exercises during 2007. PENSION BENEFITS The Corporation has a non-contributory defined benefit pension plan that is qualified for federal tax purposes for all eligible employees. The Corporation has the authority to change or terminate the pension plan at any time. In order to be eligible, an employee must have completed six months of service and have attained age 20. The employee can participate under the plan upon the satisfaction of the eligibility requirements and having reached the entry date. The entry date is the first day of the Plan Year following the date of satisfaction of the eligibility requirements. The Corporation contributed $200,000 to the plan in 2007 and $311,000 to the plan in 2006. The amount of a participant's monthly normal retirement annuity is equal to 1.1% of their average monthly compensation (salary and bonus) multiplied by their total number of years of service, plus .65% of their average monthly compensation in excess of one-twelfth of their covered compensation multiplied by their total number of years of service (up to a maximum of thirty-five (35) years), computed to the nearest cent. Upon reaching normal retirement age of 65, a participant is entitled to receive, a monthly benefit for life or may elect a one time lump sum benefit. Early retirement, postponed retirement and disability retirement are also provided for in the plan. A plan participant has no vested benefit until after attainment of 5 years of service at which time the participant is fully vested. The plan's benefit obligations at year end are calculated using the following weighted average assumptions: 14 - Weighted average discount - 6.50% - Rate of increase in future compensation - 3.00% - Expected long term rate of return on plan assets - 8.00% 401K PLAN The Bank also maintains a 401(k) plan for all eligible employees. In order to be eligible, an employee must complete 90 days of service and be at least 21 years of age. During 2007 the Bank elected to make matching contributions equal to 100% of the first 2% and 50% of the next 2% of the employee's deferred compensation. NONQUALIFIED DEFERRED COMPENSATION On September 1, 1997, the board of directors approved a Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan, a supplemental retirement program, which permits voluntary participation for a select group of management personnel and any directors not eligible to participate in the 1985 Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan. Mr. Conboy was the only active employee currently participating eligible for the benefits under the plan. See Compensation of Directors above for more information regarding this plan. The plan permits participating executive officers and directors to elect in advance to defer from 1% to 100% of his or her compensation, or directors fees into the plan on an annual basis. The election to defer compensation under the plan is irrevocable for each plan year. The Corporation does not make matching contributions to the plan for employees or directors. Amounts deferred are credited with interest at a rate equal to the Bank's "yield on earning assets" as calculated at year end of the prior year. Upon separation for any reason of the services of a participating employee from the Bank, the employee will be entitled to receive the balance of his or her account in equal monthly installments over a period of ten years or lump sum if approved by the board of directors. OTHER POTENTIAL POST-EMPLOYMENT PAYMENTS Except for the benefits payable under the defined benefit pension plan, 401k plan and the deferred compensation plans described above there are no other contracts, plans, or arrangements that will potentially provide executive officers with payment or other benefits upon termination of their employment or upon a change in control of the Corporation or Bank. 15 CODE OF ETHICS The Corporation has adopted a Senior Financial Officers Code of Ethics that applies to the Corporation's chief executive officer, treasurer, controller or other senior officers performing similar functions. A copy of the Senior Financial Officers Code of Ethics will be furnished without charge upon written request to: Secretary, CNB Corporation, P.O. Box 10, Cheboygan, Michigan 49721. REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE The primary function of the Audit Committee ("Committee") is to assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities by reviewing the financial information that will be provided to shareholders and others, the systems of internal controls, and all internal and external audit processes. Management is responsible for preparing the Corporation's financial statements and the independent external auditors are responsible for auditing those financial statements. The Committee reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements of the Corporation for the year ended December 31, 2007 with management and the independent external auditors. The Committee discussed with the independent external auditors the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards 114, which include, among other items, matters related to the conduct of the audit of the Corporation's financial statements. The Committee also received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent external auditors required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (which relates to the auditors' independence from management and from the Corporation and its related entities), discussed with the auditors any relationships that may impact their independence and satisfied itself as to the auditors' independence. Based on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the Corporation's audited financial statements be included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Submitted by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors: Thomas J. Ellenberger, Chairman Kathleen A. Lieder Steven J. Baker John L. Ormsbee Kathleen M. Darrow R. Jeffery Swadling Vincent J. Hillesheim Francis J. Van Antwerp, Jr. 16 CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS Directors and officers of the Corporation, as well as members of their immediate families and the companies, organizations and other entities with which they are associated, have had, and are expected to have in the future, transactions with the Bank. All such transactions are made in the ordinary course of business and on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral requirements on loan transactions, as those prevailing at the same time for comparable transactions with other persons. All such loan transactions do not involve more than normal risk of collectibility or present other unfavorable features and, when required, are approved by the Board of Directors. Director Conboy serves as counsel to the law firm of Bodman LLP which provided legal services to the Corporation and the Bank during 2007. During 2007 he received no compensation from Bodman LLP. It is anticipated that Bodman LLP will continue to furnish legal services in the future. SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires directors, executive officers, and any persons beneficially owning more than 10% of the Corporation's common stock to file initial reports of ownership of the common stock and changes in such ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Since the Bank essentially has knowledge of such ownership information in its capacity as sole transfer agent for the Corporation's common stock, it electronically files the required reports in compliance with Section 16(a), as amended under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations. INDEPENDENT AUDITORS Crowe Chizek and Company LLC ("Crowe Chizek") had served as the independent external auditors for the Bank since 1980 and for the Corporation since its formation in 1985. On February 22, 2007, the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors concluded its proposal process for selection of an independent registered public accounting firm for 2007, and appointed Plante & Moran, PLLC ("Plante & Moran") as our independent registered public accounting firm for the calendar year ending December 31, 2007. On the same date, the Audit Committee determined to dismiss Crowe Chizek as our independent registered public accounting firm after work was completed for the calendar year ending December 31, 2006, and advised Crowe Chizek that it would not be engaged as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the calendar year ending December 31, 2007. The audit report of Plante & Moran on our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2007 and Crowe Chizek's reports on our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2006, did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or 17 accounting principles. During the two most recent calendar years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, and from December 31, 2006 through the date we appointed Plante & Moran as our independent registered public accounting firm for the calendar year ending December 31, 2007, there have been no disagreements between us and Plante & Moran or Crowe Chizek on any matters of accounting principle or practice, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to its satisfaction, would have caused Plante & Moran or Crowe Chizek to make reference to the subject matter of such disagreements in connection with its reports. During the period described in the preceding sentence, there were no "reportable events" as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) or (v) of Regulation S-K of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). During the calendar year ended December 31, 2006, and from December 31, 2006 through the date we appointed Plante & Moran as our independent registered public accounting firm for the calendar year ending December 31, 2007, neither we nor anyone on our behalf consulted Plante & Moran with respect to any accounting or auditing issues involving us. In particular, there was no discussion with Plante & Moran regarding the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the financial statements, or any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement with Crowe Chizek on accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Crowe Chizek, would have caused Crowe Chizek to make reference to the matter in its reports, or a "reportable event" as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) or (v) of Regulation S-K. The following table sets forth the fees billed to the Corporation by Plante & Moran for the year ended December 31, 2007 and Crowe Chizek for the year ended December 31, 2006:
2007 2006 ------- ------- Audit Fees $68,500 $60,800 Audit-Related Fees 5,000 0 Tax Fees 11,000 8,400 All Other Fees 13,500 325
All Other Fees for 2007 included $6,000 paid for a validation of our Asset/Liability model and $7,500 paid for training services for a credit analyst. All of the services provided by the independent external auditors and their fees for services were approved in accordance with the Audit Committee's Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy. The policy sets forth the procedures and the conditions pursuant to which the Audit Committee may meet its duty to pre-approve all audit and permitted non-audit services to be performed by the independent external auditors. The Audit Committee may give general pre-approval of types of services based on established policy and procedures or specific pre-approval on an engagement-by-engagement basis. The Audit Committee annually reviews and pre-approves 18 those services that may be provided by the independent external auditors without obtaining specific approval from the Audit Committee. SHAREHOLDER COMMUNICATIONS WITH DIRECTORS The Board of Directors does not have a formal process for shareholders to send communications to the Board of Directors.
