ITEM 1.01.  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

       On September 21, 2006, Citizens First Corporation (the "Company") amended
(the "Amendments") its existing Employment Agreements with each of Steve Marcum,
Kim M. Thomas, and Matthew Todd Kanipe. The Amendments provide that the annual
salary of each executive will be established by the board of directors of the
Company, after recommendation by the compensation committee, at the commencement
of each calendar year.

On September 26, 2006, The Company and The Bankers Bank entered into a Business
Loan Agreement and related promissory note (collectively, the "Loan Agreement").
The Loan Agreement provides for a line of credit of $3,000,000 to be used for
operating capital and general corporate purposes.  The loan matures
September 26, 2008 and bears interest at the prime rate as published in the
Money Rates section of The Wall Street Journal, Eastern Edition, with interest
payable monthly on the outstanding balance.  The loan is secured by the common
stock of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Citizens First Bank, Inc.

are qualified by reference in their entirety to the copies of the Amendments and
