| Q: | Why is my vote important? |

| A: | If you do not vote, it will be more difficult for Fifth Third or Comerica to obtain the necessary quorum                                                                                                                                              
 to hold their respective special meetings. In addition, your failure to submit a proxy or vote virtually at the applicable special meeting, or failure to instruct your bank or broker how to vote, or abstention will have the same effect as a vote 
 “AGAINST” approval of the Fifth Third stock issuance proposal and the adoption of the Comerica merger proposal.                                                                                                                                       |

Approval of the Fifth Third stock issuance proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding Fifth Third common stock and Fifth Third voting preferred stock, voting together as a single class. The Comerica merger proposal must be adopted by the affirmative vote of a majority of all votes entitled to be cast on the Comerica merger proposal by the holders of Comerica common stock. The Fifth Third board of directors unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” the Fifth Third stock issuance proposal, and the Comerica board of directors unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” the Comerica merger proposal.

| Q: | What will happen if I return my proxy card without indicating how to vote? |

| A: | If you sign and return your proxy card without indicating how to vote on any particular proposal, the                                                                                                                                            
 shares of Fifth Third common stock represented by your proxy will be voted as recommended by the Fifth Third board of directors with respect to such proposals or the shares of Comerica common stock represented by your proxy will be voted as 
 recommended by the Comerica board of directors with respect to such proposals, as the case may be.                                                                                                                                               |

A failure by the holder of a depositary share of the Fifth Third voting preferred stock to give timely voting instructions to the depositary will result in the Fifth Third voting preferred stock represented by such holder’s depositary shares not being voted at the Fifth Third special meeting.

| Q: | Can I change my vote after I have delivered my proxy or voting instruction card? |

| A: | If you directly hold shares in your name as a record holder, you can change your vote at any time before 
 your proxy is voted at your meeting. You can do this by:                                                 |

| • |     | submitting a written statement to the corporate secretary of Fifth Third or Comerica, as applicable, that you 
 would like to revoke your proxy;                                                                              |
