FULTON FINANCIAL CORP

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Corporation carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Corporation's management, including the Corporation's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Corporation's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15, promulgated under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, the Corporation's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2024, the Corporation's disclosure controls and procedures are effective. Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in Corporation reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

We review our internal controls over financial reporting on a regular basis and make changes intended to ensure the quality of our financial reporting. During the second quarter of 2024, as the result of the Republic First Transaction, we commenced the evaluation of the applicable controls, and designed and implemented new controls as needed. The evaluation of the changes to processes, information technology systems and other components of internal control over financial reporting related to the Republic First Transaction is ongoing. Otherwise, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act) during the three months ended September 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting.
