Explanation of Responses:

1. Represents shares of common stock underlying restricted stock awards granted under the Central Federal Corporation 2019 Equity Incentive Plan on January 15, 2021, which are subject to vesting over a three-year period.

2. Includes 1,650 restricted stock awards previously granted under the Central Federal Corporation 2019 Equity Incentive Plan in December 2019, which are subject to vesting over a three-year period from the date of grant.

3. All restricted stock awards were issued to Castle Creek Advisors IV LLC ("Advisors IV"), on behalf of John Pietrzak in his capacity as a member of the Board of Directors of the Issuer. The reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of such securities, except to the extent of his pecuniary interest in Advisors IV, and this report shall not be deemed an admission that the reporting person is the beneficial owner of such securities for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or for any other purpose.

Remarks:

The reporting person is a managing principal of Castle Creek Capital VII LLC ("CCC VII"), the sole general partner of Castle Creek Capital Partners VII, LP ("Fund VII"). As of January 20, 2021, Fund VII owned 531,299 shares of the Issuer's common stock (the "Fund VII Shares"). The reporting person does not presently have beneficial ownership (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Act) of the Fund VII shares. As such, the Fund VII Shares are not included in this Form 4.
