#### 2026 Annual Meeting and Shareholder Proposals
In order for a shareholder proposal or director nomination submitted pursuant to SEC Rule 14a-8 to be considered for inclusion in our proxy materials for our annual meeting of shareholders, expected to be held in April 2026, the proposal or director nomination must be received by our Corporate Secretary, Citizens Financial Group, Inc., 600 Washington Boulevard, Stamford, Connecticut 06901, on or before the close of business on November 10, 2025, and must comply with the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC. These shareholder notices must also comply with the requirements of our Bylaws and will not be effective otherwise.

Our Bylaws impose procedural requirements on shareholders who wish to nominate directors, generally or under the proxy access provisions, propose that a director be removed, propose any repeal or change in our Bylaws or propose any other business to be brought before an annual or special meeting of shareholders. Under these procedural requirements, in order to bring a proposal before a meeting of shareholders, a shareholder must deliver timely notice of a proposal pertaining to a proper subject for presentation at the annual meeting to our Corporate Secretary.

For proposals outside of SEC Rule 14a-8, to be timely, a shareholder’s notice must be delivered to the Corporate Secretary at 600 Washington Boulevard, Stamford, Connecticut, 06901 not less than 120 days or more than 150 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting. Therefore, to be presented at our annual meeting of shareholders to be held in 2026, such a proposal must be received on or after November 25, 2025, but not later than December 25, 2025. In
