Our Board Requests your Support For the Following Management Proposals Proposal Our Board’s Perspective Item 1: Election of directors • Our Board regularly reviews and renews its composition through thoughtful evaluation, and continues to enhance its director succession planning and selection process • Our nominees reflect the Board’s commitment to identify, evaluate, and nominate candidates who possess personal qualities, qualifications, skills, diversity of backgrounds, and provide a mix of tenures, that best serve our company and our shareholders Item 2: “Say on Pay” vote • Our compensation philosophy is to pay for performance over the long-term, as well as on an annual basis • Compensation considerations reinforce and promote Responsible Growth and help align executive officer and shareholder interests • Comprehensive evaluation based on multi-faceted performance assessment helps ensure that incentive compensation decisions reflect risk management and pay-for-performance philosophy • Following the 2023 Say on Pay vote, we pursued an expansive shareholder engagement process to seek input on our executive compensation program, which informed compensation decisions and enhancements disclosed in our proxy statement Item 3: Appointment of • Our Audit Committee has appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC) as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2024 public accounting firm • Our Board is seeking shareholders’ ratification of PwC’s appointment Item 4: Amending and • The BACEP serves a critical role in our pay-for-performance compensation program and in complying with the regulatory landscape in certain restating the Bank of America jurisdictions Corporation Equity Plan • Our Board believes that equity-based awards aid in our ability to attract, retain, and motivate our employees and are the most direct way to (BACEP) align employee interests with those of shareholders • The only proposed change is to increase the number of shares available under the BACEP, which the Board believes is critical to our broad- based pay-for-performance strategy • Key plan features and grant practices remain aligned with shareholder interests and governance best practices • Our stock repurchase strategy offsets the dilutive impact of the stock plan 14

For more information, see pp. 97-109 of our proxy statement Our Board Recommends a Vote Against the Following Shareholder Proposals Bank of America’s Constructive Approach to Shareholder Proposals We encourage shareholders contemplating a shareholder proposal submission to reach out to us beforehand, allowing us to better understand their perspective and objectives, to brief management and the Board on the input we receive, and to share or direct shareholders to information on our existing policies, practices, and initiatives. Of the six shareholder proposals that appear in our 2024 proxy statement, only the shareholder representative Trillium Asset Management contacted us on its proposal prior to submission. When we receive a shareholder proposal, we carefully review and discuss it with internal subject matter experts who have familiarity and insight on the matters raised, and we review the proposal with management and the Board. We also seek engagement with proponents, and we contacted and engaged with each of the proponents of the shareholder proposals set forth below, or their representatives. These proposals fall into two broad categories: • those seeking changes to our corporate governance or executive compensation practices, and • those seeking changes to or reports on how we conduct our business. Among the former, the proposals seek discrete changes that have been repeatedly considered and rejected by our shareholders, that are less favorable to shareholders than our existing practices, or that propose novel and untested concepts. Because of this, we believe these proposals are not in shareholders’ best interests and fail to recognize the robust governance policies and practices already in place at our company. For the proposals seeking changes to or reports on how we conduct our business, we appreciate the issues raised in many of the proposals, and in some cases, have already taken actions to address them, including providing extensive public disclosures on the specific subject matter raised in the proposals. Where we have not already implemented the changes or prepared the reports requested, we consider their usefulness to shareholders, the costs involved, and the potential conflicts of such requests with our existing practices and disclosures. Similarly, we may receive multiple proposals on a common topic, where implementation of all the distinct (and sometimes contradictory) proposals would conflict with our existing initiatives, commitments and reporting processes, or would be redundant, create confusion, and impede the progress we continue to make toward our goals, which would not be a productive use of corporate assets. 15

Endnotes A. Adjusted revenue is calculated as revenue of $98.6 billion excluding the net pretax charge of $1.6 billion for the impact of the future cessation of the Bloomberg Short-Term Bank Yield Index (BSBY), resulting in adjusted revenue of $100.2 billion. Adjusted net income is calculated as net income of $26.5 billion excluding the after-tax impacts of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) special assessment ($1.6 billion) and BSBY cessation ($1.2 billion) charges, resulting in adjusted net income of $29.3 billion. The company believes the use of non-GAAP financial measures adjusting for the impacts of the FDIC special assessment and BSBY cessation charges provides additional information for evaluating its results of operations and comparing its operational performance between periods by excluding these impacts that may not be reflective of its underlying operating performance. B. Return on average tangible common shareholders' equity measures our net income applicable to common shareholders as a percentage of adjusted average common shareholders' equity. Return on average tangible common shareholders' equity is calculated as net income applicable to common shareholders of $24.9 billion divided by average common shareholders' equity of $255.0 billion, reduced by goodwill of $69.0 billion and intangible assets (excluding mortgage servicing rights) of $2.0 billion, net of related deferred tax liabilities of $0.9 billion. Adjusted return on average common shareholders' equity and adjusted return on average tangible common shareholders’ equity reflect the FDIC special assessment and BSBY cessation charges’ negative impact on return on average common shareholders’ equity and return on average tangible common shareholders’ equity of 109 basis points and 151 basis points, respectively. Management uses these measures to evaluate the company's use of equity and to support overall growth goals and the company believes the use of ratios that utilize tangible equity provides additional useful information because they present measures of those assets that can generate income. Additionally, the company believes the use of non-GAAP financial measures adjusting for the impacts of the FDIC special assessment and BSBY cessation charges provides additional information for evaluating its results of operations and comparisons of these measures between periods by excluding these impacts that may not be reflective of its underlying operating performance. Cautionary information and forward-looking statements These additional solicitation materials contain certain statements regarding Responsible Growth and environmental, social, and governance information and opinions, including metrics, aspirations, targets, goals, commitments, cumulative values and sustainability objectives (collectively, the Sustainability Information). Such statements regarding Sustainability Information may be based on current or historic aspirations, goals, targets, commitments, estimates, assumptions, standards, metrics, methodologies and internal control frameworks, and currently available data, which continue to evolve and develop, and any statements made in connection with Bank of America Corporation’s aspirations, goals, targets or commitments are not guarantees or promises that they will be met. Additionally, certain statements contained in these additional solicitation materials may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements about Bank of America Corporation’s future financial performance and business and sustainability-related statements regarding our aspirations, goals, targets and commitments, such as our commitment to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions before 2050 in our financing activities, operations and supply chain, interim 2030 net zero greenhouse gas emissions targets, including financed emissions targets, and sustainable finance commitments, which may evolve over time. We use words such as “anticipates,” “targets,” “expects,” “hopes,” “estimates,” “intends,” “plans,” “goals,” “believes,” “continue” and other similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “may,” “might,” “should,” “would” and “could” to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not based on historical facts, but reflect management’s current expectations, plans or forecasts, are not guarantees of future results or performance, involve certain known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict and often beyond our control and are inherently uncertain. You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement. Actual outcomes and results may differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, any of these forward-looking statements due to a variety of factors, including global sociodemographic and economic trends, energy prices, technological innovations and advances, climate-related conditions and weather events, legislative and regulatory changes, public policies, engagement with clients, suppliers, investors, government officials, and other stakeholders, our ability to successfully implement sustainability-related initiatives under expected time frames, third-party compliance with our expectations, policies and procedures and other unforeseen events or conditions. Discussion of additional factors, including uncertainties and risks, can be found in Bank of America Corporation’s 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent Securities and Exchange Commission filings. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements.
