Executive Compensation Program Overview

See pages 58-59 for the HRC's perspective on each of the three key areas of enhanced disclosure Overview of our Responsive Compensation Changes Shareholders broadly affirmed the structural changes to our executive compensation program and enhanced disclosure implemented in 2021. However, the HRC determined it was important to further enhance disclosure in response to shareholder feedback. Three Key Areas of Enhanced Disclosure 1 2 NEO base salary levels Peer group selection HRC's approach to compensation decisions The HRC has made significant enhancements to our executive compensation program since our 2021 Annual Meeting: Disclosure Structural What We Heard from Shareholders Preference for more disclosure about the goals used to evaluate individual performance Preference for more disclosure about the factors the HRC considers in assessing performance Preference for more disclosure about the process to determine variable compensation Preference for a higher proportion of performance- based long-term equity in CEO pay mix Preference for inclusion of a relative measure in our PSA design Focus on setting rigorous performance criteria Preference for increased rigor of the TSR structure How We Responded ✓ Enhanced description of the goals used to evaluate individual NEO performance ✓ Provided additional detail on the performance assessment process used by the HRC ✓ Enhanced the disclosure around the HRC's process for determining variable compensation, including application of performance achievement levels ✓ Increased the weight of PSAs in the CEO's equity mix to 65% with the remaining 35% in RSRs (previously, split 50% / 50%) ✓ Reintroduced relative Return on Tangible Common Equity (ROTCE) performance in our Performance Share Award (PSA) design, weighted at 25% (previously, 100% absolute ROTCE) ✓ Increased the target performance goal required for three-year average absolute ROTCE performance to achieve target payout or above ★ Further increased the three-year average absolute ROTCE performance required to achieve target payout or above from 10.5% to 12.0%, for PSAs granted in 2023, for performance year 2022 ✓ Re-evaluated the structure and rigor of TSR in the PSA program; payouts adjusted upward by 20% if our TSR is at or above the 75th percentile and will be reduced by 20% if our TSR is below the 25th percentile (no upward adjustment if absolute TSR is negative) 7
