For more information, see “ The Mergers — Appraisal or Dissenters’ Rights in the First Merger” beginning on page 118. Interests of Certain Fifth Third Directors and Executive Officers in the First Merger (page 107) In considering the Fifth Third board of directors’ recommendation to vote to approve the Fifth Third stock issuance proposal, Fifth Third voting shareholders should be aware that Fifth Third directors and executive officers may have interests in the first merger that are different from, or in addition to, those of holders of Fifth Third common stock or Fifth Third preferred shares generally and that may create potential conflicts of interest. These interests include the following:

| • |     | It is anticipated that all current members of the Fifth Third board of directors will remain on the Fifth Third                                                                                                                                         
 board of directors at the effective time, and that the current executive officers of Fifth Third will remain the executive officers of the combined company, with Timothy N. Spence continuing to serve as the president and chief executive officer of 
 Fifth Third;                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            |

| • |     | While the first merger will not constitute a change in control for purposes of Fifth Third’s compensation                                                                      
 and benefit plans, the existing severance plans with respect to Fifth Third’s executive officers will continue to govern each officer’s entitlement to severance benefits; and |

| • |     | Fifth Third may have discussions with certain of its executive officers regarding post-closing roles for such                                                                                                                                      
 executive officers within the combined company and may enter into agreements outlining separation entitlements for those officers who are not expected to stay with the combined company following the closing. As of the date of this joint proxy 
 statement/prospectus, no such arrangements with Fifth Third executive officers have been entered into.                                                                                                                                             |
