The following presentation may contain forward-looking statements about Fulton Financial Corporation’s
financial condition, business, strategies, products and services. Forward-looking statements are encouraged
by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements reflect the
Corporation’s current views and expectations based largely on information currently available to its
management, and on its current expectations, assumptions, plan, estimates, judgments, and projections about
its business and its industry, and they involve inherent risks, contingencies, uncertainties and other factors.
Although the Corporation believes that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable estimates
and assumptions, the Corporation is unable to provide any assurance that its expectations will, in fact, occur
or that its estimates or assumptions will be correct and actual results could differ materially from those
expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements and such statements are not guarantees of future
performance. The Corporation undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements.
Accordingly, investors and others are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.

Many factors could affect future financial results including, without limitation, acquisition and growth
strategies; market risk; changes or adverse developments in economic, political or regulatory conditions; a
continuation or worsening of the current disruption in credit and other markets, including the lack of or
reduced access to, and the abnormal functioning of markets for mortgage and other asset-backed securities
and for commercial paper and other short-term borrowings; the effect of competition and interest rates on net
interest margin and net interest income; investment strategy and income growth; investment securities gains;
declines in the value of securities which may result in charges to earnings; changes in rates of deposit and
loan growth; asset quality and the impact on assets from adverse changes in the economy and in credit and
other markets and resulting effects on credit risk and asset values; balances of risk-sensitive assets to risk-
sensitive liabilities; salaries and employee benefits and other expenses; amortization of intangible assets;
goodwill impairment; capital and liquidity strategies; and other financial and business matters for future periods.

For a more complete discussion of certain risks and uncertainties affecting the Corporation, please see the
sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations” set forth in the Corporation’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
