If you intend to submit your proxy by telephone or via the Internet, you must do so by 11:59 p.m. EST on the day before the HomeStreet special meeting. If you intend to submit your proxy by mail, your completed proxy card must be received before the HomeStreet special meeting. If you are a HomeStreet shareholder as of the record date, and you virtually attend the HomeStreet special meeting through the website provided using the control number from your proxy card or voting instruction materials, you may vote your shares associated with that control number online during the HomeStreet special meeting. Whether or not you intend to be virtually present at the HomeStreet special meeting, you are urged to complete, sign, date and return the enclosed proxy card to HomeStreet in the enclosed postage-paid envelope or submit a proxy by telephone or via the Internet as described on the enclosed instructions as soon as possible.

Your broker, bank, trustee or other nominee will vote your shares only if you provide specific instructions on how to vote by following the instructions provided to you by your broker, bank, trustee or other nominee. You may not vote shares held in “street name” by returning a proxy card directly to HomeStreet. Further, brokers, banks, trustees or other nominees who hold shares of HomeStreet common stock on behalf of their customers may not give a proxy to HomeStreet to vote those shares with respect to any of the proposals presented at the HomeStreet special meeting without specific instructions from their customers, as brokers, banks, trustees and other nominees do not have discretionary voting power on the proposals that will be voted upon at the HomeStreet special meeting, including the HomeStreet articles amendment proposal, the HomeStreet share issuance
