2 Forward Looking Statements & Additional Information This presentation contains certain forward-looking statements that are included pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements express only management’s beliefs regarding future results or events and are subject to inherent uncertainty, risks, and changes in circumstances, many of which are outside of management’s control. Such risks and uncertainties could result in the Company's actual results differing from those projected in the forward-looking statements. The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements: (1) the business of City and Citizens may not be combined successfully, or such combination may take longer, be more difficult, time-consuming or costly to accomplish than expected; (2) the expected growth opportunities or cost savings from the Merger may not be fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected; (3) deposit attrition, operating costs, customer losses and business disruption following the Merger, including adverse effects on relationships with employees, may be greater than expected; (4) the regulatory approvals required for the Merger may not be obtained on the proposed terms or on the anticipated schedule; (5) the shareholders of Citizens may fail to approve the Mergers; (6) legislative or regulatory changes, including changes in accounting standards, may adversely affect the businesses in which City and Citizens are engaged; (7) volatility in the interest rate environment may compress margins and adversely affect net interest income; (8) results may be adversely affected by continued diversification of assets and adverse changes to credit quality; (9) competition from other financial services companies in City’s and Citizens’ markets could adversely affect operations; (10) compliance risk involving risk to earnings or capital resulting from violations of or nonconformance with laws, rules, regulations, prescribed practices, or ethical standards; (11) an economic slowdown could continue to adversely affect credit quality and loan originations; and (12) other factors, which could cause actual results to differ materially from future results expressed or implied by such forward looking statements. Additional factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements are discussed in City’s reports (such as its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 under “ITEM 1A Risk Factors”, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K) filed with the SEC and available on the SEC’s Internet site (www.sec.gov). All forward-looking statements attributable to City’s, Citizens’ or the combined company’s, or persons acting on City’s or Citizens’ behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements set forth above. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and City and Citizens do not undertake or assume any obligation to update publicly any of these statements to reflect actual results, new information or future events, changes in assumptions, or changes in other factors affecting forward-looking statements, except to the extent required by applicable laws. If City or Citizens update one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be drawn that City or Citizens will make additional updates with respect to those or other forward-looking statements.
