Nominees to the Board of Directors for Inclusion in Fifth Third Bancorp’s Proxy Statement: In 2020, the Board of Directors adopted amendments to our Regulations to implement proxy access for the election of directors. An eligible shareholder or group of up to 20 shareholders, owning continuously for at least three years shares of our common stock representing an aggregate of at least three percent of our outstanding common stock, may nominate and include in our Proxy Statement director nominees constituting up to 20% of the total number of our directors (subject to certain adjustments) provided that the shareholders and their nominees satisfy the requirements specified in Article II, Section 12 of our Regulations. Notice of nominations under the proxy access provisions of our Regulations for our 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders must be received by our Corporate Secretary at the address listed above by no earlier than October 5, 2025 and no later than the close of business on November 4, 2025, assuming that we do not change the date of our 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders by more than 30 days from the date of our 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

Shareholder Proposals not included in Fifth Third Bancorp’s Proxy Statement. Any shareholder who intends to nominate a person for election to the Board, or to propose other business to be considered by the shareholders, at the 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders without such nomination or proposal being included in our Proxy Statement as a shareholder proposal must be a record holder of shares entitled to vote at the meeting and must send a notice that complies with all of the applicable requirements set forth in Article II, Section 11 of our Regulations and Rule 14a-19 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to the Corporate Secretary using the address and facsimile number listed above no earlier than December 16, 2025 and no later than January 15, 2026. Among other requirements, the notice must include information required by the Company’s Regulations. In addition to the foregoing, any shareholder who intends to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the Company’s nominees must comply with the additional requirements of Securities and Exchange Rule 14a-19(b).

Our Regulations, which set forth the detailed requirements for making nominations to the Board using proxy access and for making nominations to the Board and proposing other business to be considered by the shareholders at shareholder meetings without inclusion in our Proxy Statement as a shareholder proposal, may be found in the Corporate Governance section of our website at www.53.com.
