. . .Credit Quality Historically Top Quartile and Well Positioned Underlying collateral is diversified: The underlying collateral for the CRE Investor Owned (“Investor”) portfolio is highly diversified and focused in low risk collateral types. Maturity wall is modest and has a minimal impact: Our maturity wall, totaling $415 million (or 4% of total loans), is set to mature in 2023 and 2024 with weighted average rates of 6.92% and 5.80%, for each respective cohort. A repricing analysis(2) was performed on the vast majority of the CRE Investor and Construction portfolio. Results indicated the portfolio continues to service debt without unusual stress. The weighted average DSCR of loans subject to the stress test is 1.32. Greater than 90% of the CRE Investor portfolio is organically originated or acquired through whole bank acquisition. Refer to the Appendices for additional disclosures on the Office portfolio. 6 CRE Investor Owner Portfolio by Geography Notes: All data presented represents CRE Investor balances, excluding purchase accounting marks and Construction as of September 30, 2023, unless otherwise noted.

(2) Repricing analysis as of Q1-23 included stressing portfolio with an increase to 7% interest rates while keeping unwritten rents constant. We are actively tracking CRE loan underlying cash flows and noted no material change from Q1-23.

. . .Deposit Trends 10 (1) Deposit beta is calculated as the increase in rate paid on total deposits per quarter divided by the incremental increase in the fed funds rate since January 1, 2022. Deposits (excl. brokered CDs) increased by 9% from the linked quarter. High yield savings grew by $328 million from the previous quarter, driving an improvement in the quality of our deposit base as these will reprice should rates moderate next year. Decline in Q3-23 time deposits is driven by a decrease in brokered CDs of ~$426 million. We maintain prudent price discipline resulting in an overall deposit beta of 35%. Excluding brokered CDs, our deposit beta totaled 30%. We expect deposit betas to continue to rise as the competitive landscape for deposits increases.
