SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On January 3, 2022, BancShares closed the CIT Merger pursuant to the Merger Agreement. The CIT Merger will be accounted for as a business combination. The assets and liabilities of CIT will be recorded at fair value. As discussed in Note B, Business Combinations, fair values are subject to refinement for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition as additional information regarding closing date fair value becomes available. Due to the timing of the CIT Merger, the fair value estimates of CIT’s assets and liabilities are not available to disclose in these Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Boards of Directors of the Parent Company and FCB now consist of 14 directors, (i) 11 of whom were legacy members of the Board of Directors of the Parent Company, and (ii) three of whom were selected from the former Board of Directors of CIT.

Common Stock Conversion

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each share of CIT common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“CIT Common Stock”), issued and outstanding, except for certain shares of CIT Common Stock owned by CIT or BancShares, was converted into the right to receive 0.062 shares (the “Exchange Ratio” and such shares, the “Merger Consideration”) of the Parent Company’s Class A Common Stock, par value $1.00 per share (“Class A Common Stock”), plus, cash in lieu of fractional shares of Class A Common Stock. The Parent Company issued approximately 6.1 million shares of its Class A Common Stock in connection with the consummation of the CIT Merger. The closing share price was $859.76 on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on January 3, 2022. There were approximately 8,800 fractional shares for which the Parent Company paid cash of approximately $7.2 million.

Preferred Stock Conversion

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, each issued and outstanding share of fixed-to-floating rate non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock, series A, par value $0.01 per share, of CIT (“CIT Series A Preferred Stock”) and each issued and outstanding share of 5.625% non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock, series B, par value $0.01 per share, of CIT (“CIT Series B Preferred Stock”), converted into the right to receive one share of a newly created series of preferred stock, series B, of the Parent Company (“BancShares Series B Preferred Stock”) and one share of a newly created series of preferred stock, series C, of the Parent Company (“BancShares Series C Preferred Stock” and together with the BancShares Series B Preferred Stock, the “New BancShares Preferred Stock”), respectively, having such rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers, and limitations and restrictions, taken as a whole, that are not materially less favorable to the holders thereof than the rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers, and limitations and restrictions, taken as a whole, of the CIT Series A Preferred Stock and the CIT Series B Preferred Stock, respectively. The non-callable period for the New BancShares Preferred Stock was extended for five years to January 4, 2027. There are 325,000 shares of BancShares Series B Preferred Stock with a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, resulting in a total liquidation preference of $325 million. There are 8 million shares of BancShares Series C Preferred Stock with a liquidation preference of $25 per share, resulting in a total liquidation preference of $200 million. The New BancShares Preferred Stock qualifies as Tier 1 capital.

Restricted Stock Conversion

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, (i) each restricted stock unit (“RSU”) award or performance stock unit (“PSU”) award in respect of shares of CIT Common Stock, including any deferred RSU award (each, a “CIT Award”) outstanding, other than a CIT Director RSU Award (defined below), automatically converted into a RSU in respect of a number of shares of Class A Common Stock (a “BancShares Award”) equal to (a) the number of shares of CIT Common Stock subject to such CIT Award based on target level performance multiplied by (b) the Exchange Ratio, subject to the same terms and conditions applicable to the existing CIT Award (except, in the case of PSU awards, for any performance goals or metrics), and (ii) each RSU award in respect of shares of CIT Common Stock that (a) was outstanding and unvested, (b) was held by a member of the Board of Directors of CIT, (c) automatically vested upon close of the CIT Merger in accordance with its terms, and (d) was not subject to a deferral election (each, a “CIT Director RSU Award”) automatically converted into the right to receive the applicable Merger Consideration.

Updates to Operating Segments

As of December 31, 2021, BancShares managed its business and reported its financial results as a single segment. Due to the CIT Merger, BancShares will begin reporting multiple segments during the first quarter of 2022. BancShares plans to report

financial results in three operating segments: General Banking, Commercial Banking, and Rail, and a non-operating segment, Corporate. BancShares will also conform prior period comparisons to any new segment presentation. Based on the planned approach for segment disclosures to be implemented during the first quarter of 2022, the substantial majority of BancShares’ operations for historical periods prior to the CIT Merger will be reflected in the General Banking segment.
