Current Priorities: Integration and Growth • The top priorities at Columbia and Umpqua are to prepare and execute the seamless integration of our two banks following the closing without disrupting the growth momentum that began in 2H 2020 and that continues to build through the current quarter and into 2023. • The establishment of the Integration Management Office (IMO) enables our respective front lines to remain focused on what they do best: generating balanced growth in loans, deposits, and fee-based products and services. Integration Update Growth Update • We established the IMO to lead our integration, track • Following the pandemic-driven slow-down in non-PPP loan against key milestones, and ultimately ensure a seamless generation, each of Columbia and Umpqua re- experience for our teams and clients. established growth momentum in 2H 2020. ◦ The IMO leadership team includes senior executive • Non-PPP loan growth at each bank accelerated in 2021 and leadership from both banks representing operations, held strong in Q3 2021 at an upper-single-digit level.

Revenue: Scale Expected to Enhances Opportunities Our combination enables us to: • Lend with a bigger balance sheet ◦ Magnifies the opportunity to grow the loan book as it reduces the need to participate out larger deals, favorably impacting new business and enabling the expansion of existing client relationships. ◦ Increases customer retention as small business customers can travel with us from inception through their corporate lending needs, which limits the number of customers who “grow-up” out of the bank. ◦ Enhances loan portfolio granularity and diversification, which supports the pro forma bank’s risk profile and presents additional opportunities to expand existing verticals (e.g., healthcare and leasing). • Invest in net-revenue generating business opportunities given expected enhanced profitability ◦ Increases ability to explore new risk-appropriate verticals that provide attractive returns and further balance sheet diversification (e.g., the addition of a new national vertical without shifting away from our local strategy). ◦ Opens opportunities to organically expand into other Western markets as the larger bank is expected to be attractive to sophisticated customers and the talent needed to serve them. • Grow non-interest, non-mortgage fee income by expanding relationships with combined customer base ◦ Broadens overall Wealth Management reach by extending Columbia Trust and Columbia Bank Financial Services across the combined client base. ◦ Generates additional opportunities to deepen relationships as data science capabilities from Umpqua that provide customer behavior analysis are applied across a broader customer base. For example, analytics uncover a customer who makes routine, large deposits and does not use treasury management services: this provides a “Smart Lead” to a banker to improve customer satisfaction while generating additional income for the bank. 6

The Power of a Larger Balance Sheet: A Hypothetical Example • Non-PPP loans grew $183 million at Columbia (8% LQA) and $480 million at Umpqua (9% LQA) in 3Q21. • The opportunities to grow the loan book by expanding business with our existing customer base are dramatic, and they are potentially multiplicative as we continue to win business in our markets.

LQA = linked-quarter annualized. * TCE used (instead of risk-based capital) given prior disclosure for pro forma TCE. See slide 41 for the calculation of pro forma TCE, which is based on financial data for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, and market data as of October 11, 2021. ** The loan amounts and opportunities displayed on this slide are hypothetical and should only be viewed as illustrative examples. The internal hold limit of the pro forma company following closing is expected to be determined by the pro forma company's board. ^ Amount of loan application above hypothetical loan amount is presented in the left-side table. For example, based on the hypothetical loan amounts in the left-most column in the right table, a loan application at Columbia for $50 million would result in a $20 million loan for Columbia's balance sheet and the participation out of $30 million, and a loan application at Umpqua for $50 million would 39 result in a $35 million loan for Umpqua's balance sheet and the participation out of $15 million. The pro forma company's larger balance sheet (and correspondingly larger capital position) would enable the pro forma company to hold the entire $50 million loan while maintaining the same (or better) level of diversity and granularity.
