Item 5.07      Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.  

The 2025 annual meeting of shareholders of Peoples
Financial Services Corp. (the “ Company”) was held on May 9, 2025. At the annual meeting, the shareholders of the Company voted
to elect five directors to the Company’s board of directors, each to serve until the 2028 annual meeting of shareholders and until
his successor has been elected and qualified; to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive
officers; and to ratify the appointment of Baker Tilly US, LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for
the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. A proposal to amend the Company’s bylaws by adding a new Article 25, to limit the personal
liability of directors and officers for monetary damages to the extent permitted by Pennsylvania law, which had required the affirmative
vote of shareholders entitled to cast at least 75 percent of the votes which all shareholders are entitled to cast, was not approved.

The names of each director elected at the annual
meeting, as well as the number of votes cast for and against, as well as the number of abstentions and broker non-votes as to each director
nominee, are as follows:
