Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
(e)    On August 28, 2013, the registrant amended the Isabella Bank Corporation and Related Companies Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors ("Plan”). The registrant amended the Plan to provide that the sum of (i) a participant's deferrals pursuant to the Plan during a plan year, and (ii) the deductions from the participant's director's salary, fees, and retainers payable to the participant that are made during such plan year pursuant to The Isabella Bank Corporation Stockholder Dividend Reinvestment and Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “DRIP”), must be equal to at least 25% of the participant's total director's salary, fees, and retainers that are earned from the participating companies (in the aggregate) during such plan year. The Plan was further amended to provide that if a participant's deferrals pursuant to the Plan during a plan year are less than 25% of his or her director's salary, retainer, and fees that are earned from participating companies (in the aggregate) for such plan year, then the participant must submit to, or have on file with, the plan administrator of the DRIP an authorization card that requires deductions pursuant to the DRIP that are sufficient to ensure that the requirements of the prior sentence are satisfied. No other terms of the Plan were amended.

The foregoing brief description of the amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1.
