We do not have a policy requiring director attendance at our annual meeting. All of our directors attended the 2024 annual meeting, and we expect our entire board to attend this year’s annual meeting.

Board, Director and Committee Performance Assessments. As part of its efforts to ensure that we have a high-functioning board with the collective experience, qualifications and skills necessary to guide a financial institution such as Renasant, our nominating committee annually oversees a board assessment and a director peer assessment, and each committee of the board performs its own self-assessment.

| The board assessment, which was developed and is administered by an independent third party, asks each director to anonymously provide his or her opinions on various topics. These topics include:         
 •    the interaction between the board and management                                                                                                                                                       
 •    the organization of the board, including its committee structure                                                                                                                                       
 •    the conduct of board and committee meetings                                                                                                                                                            
 •    each director’s fulfillment of his or her responsibilities as a director                                                                                                                               
 •    director compensation                                                                                                                                                                                  
 After analyzing the results, the nominating committee makes recommendations to improve the operations of the board and to address any deficiencies that have been identified during the assessment process. |     | The peer assessment is designed to obtain each director’s views about the contribution of each director (including himself or herself) to the board and their participation in board and committee meetings and other board activities. The assessment also helps the nominating committee identify areas where a director can improve his or her performance in order to enhance the director’s contribution to the overall functioning of the board and its committees. 
 Each year, the nominating committee interviews one-third of our directors to discuss the results of the peer assessment, including any issues identified therein or discrepancies between the director’s self-assessment and the peer assessment, and the director’s willingness to continue to serve on the board.                                                                                                                                                       
 This information is one factor the nominating committee uses to determine whether to nominate each director for reelection.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               |     | Committee self-assessments are conducted annually and elicit input from committee members regarding the committee’s performance of its responsibilities as set forth in its charter or as otherwise delegated to it by the board.  
 The committee assessment also seeks feedback on the efficiency of the committee’s operations, the contribution of each committee
