S&T Bancorp, Inc.|2025 Proxy Statement| 1

Meeting Information given. Banks, brokers and other nominees have discretionary authority to vote shares in the absence of instructions on matters considered “routine,” such as the ratification of the appointment of the independent registered public accounting firm. They do not have discretionary authority to vote shares in the absence of instructions on “non-routine”matters, such as the election of directors and the advisory vote on compensation of S&T’s NEOs. The director nominees will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting, which means that the 11 nominees receiving the most votes will be elected. A withheld vote on any nominee will not affect the voting results. Under S&T’s voting standard policy adopted by the S&T Board, which is included in S&T’s Corporate Governance Guidelines (“Guidelines”), if a director nominee in an uncontested election at the Annual Meeting receives a greater number of “withheld” votes from his or her election than votes “for” such election, such director must submit his or her resignation to the Board promptly following the certification of election results. The resignation will first be considered by the members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (the “Nominating Committee”) within 60 days following certification of the shareholder vote. The Nominating Committee will recommend to the S&T Board whether to accept or reject the resignation after considering all factors deemed relevant by the Nominating Committee. The S&T Board shall act on the Nominating Committee’s recommendation within 90 days following certification of the shareholder vote. If a director’s resignation is accepted by the Board, the Board either may fill the resulting vacancy or may decrease the size of the Board pursuant to S&T’s By-laws. The ratification of the selection of Ernst & Young LLP as S&T’s independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2025 and the approval, on a non-bindingadvisory basis, of the compensation of S&T’s NEOs require the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting to be approved.
