 If you are an ESSA shareholder, you may attend ESSA’s virtual special meeting and vote electronically during the meeting. Please note, however, that if your shares are held in “street name” through a bank, broker, trustee or other nominee and you wish to attend and vote at the special meeting, you must register in advance. To register, you must submit a legal proxy reflecting your ESSA common stock holdings along with your name and email address to Computershare at legalproxy@computershare.com. Requests for registration must be labeled as 108

“Legal Proxy” and be received no later than 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, on April 9, 2025. You will receive a confirmation email with a control number from Computershare regarding your registration.

Whether or not you plan to attend the special meeting, ESSA requests that you vote by internet, by telephone, or by completing and mailing the enclosed proxy card as soon as possible in the enclosed postage-paid envelope. This will not prevent you from voting online during the special meeting, but will assure that your vote is counted if you are unable to attend.

Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes

Only shares affirmatively voted for the ESSA merger proposal, the ESSA compensation proposal or the ESSA adjournment proposal, including shares represented by properly executed proxies that do not contain voting instructions, will be counted as votes “FOR” the ESSA merger proposal, “FOR” the ESSA compensation proposal or “FOR” the ESSA adjournment proposal, respectively.

Brokers who hold shares of ESSA common stock in “street name” for a customer who is the beneficial owner of those shares may not exercise voting authority on the customer’s shares with respect to “non-routine” proposals without specific instructions from the customer. Proxies submitted by a broker that do not exercise this voting authority are referred to as “broker non-votes.” It is expected that all proposals to be voted on at the ESSA special meeting will be “non-routine” matters, and, as such, broker non-votes, if any, will not be counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum at the ESSA special meeting. If your bank, broker, trustee or other nominee holds your shares of ESSA common stock in “street name,” such entity will vote your shares of ESSA common stock only if you provide instructions on how to vote
