 not intended to be included in our proxy statement and proxy card, or of a stockholder’s intent to nominate a person from the floor for election as a director at our 2026 Annual Meeting, must be received by our Corporate Secretary at our address listed below no earlier than December 18, 2025, and no later than February 1, 2026, in order for that proposal or nomination to be brought before that Annual Meeting. The same notice requirements apply in the case of a stockholder proposal other than a nomination in order for that proposal to be considered timely received for purposes of the Proxies’ discretionary authority to vote on other matters presented for action by stockholders at our 2026 Annual Meeting. However, if, effective after the February 1, 2026 deadline for notice of a proposed nomination, our Board increases the number of our directors to be elected at our 2026 Annual Meeting, and if there is no public announcement naming the nominee to fill the vacancy at least 100 days prior to the first anniversary of the Annual Meeting, then a stockholder’s written notice of a nomination to fill the vacancy will be treated as timely if it is received by us not later than the close of business on the tenth day following the day on which such a public announcement actually is made. To be effective, notices of stockholder proposals or nominations are required to strictly comply with the requirements of Article II, Section 11 of our Bylaws, which specify the procedures, information, and statements that must be included in any stockholder director nomination. Stockholder proposals or nominations not made as provided in our Bylaws will not be considered at Annual Meetings. A copy of our most recent Bylaws has been filed with the SEC as an exhibit to our 2024 Annual Report and they also are available on our website at ir.firstcitizens.com/corporate-governance/governance-documents. If required by the SEC’s Rule 14a-19,any person who intends to conduct a solicitation of proxies in support of a nominee for election as a director at our 2026 Annual Meeting, other than a nominee proposed by our Board, must provide written notice to us, at our address listed below, in accordance with and containing the information required by the above rule. Except as otherwise provided in the rule, any such notice must be postmarked or transmitted electronically no later than February 28, 2026. The notices described above should be mailed to: First Citizens BancShares, Inc. Attention: Corporate Secretary
