This Definitive Additional Material is being filed by Pinnacle Financial Partners, Inc. (the “Company”) solely for the purposes of correcting an error that appeared in the EDGAR filing of the Company’s definitive proxy statement for the 2021 Annual Meeting of Shareholders that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 11, 2021 (the “Proxy Statement”). Subsequent to the electronic filing of the Proxy Statement on EDGAR, the Company discovered that certain identifying symbols were inadvertently omitted from the table detailing the current memberships of the various committees of the Company’s Board of Directors (which is included below the "Proposal #1: Election of Directors – Meetings Committees of the Board” subheading of the Proxy Statement). This technical error does not appear in the version of the Proxy Statement mailed to the Company’s shareholders. An updated table including identifying symbols is included below.

All incumbent directors attended either in-person or virtually at least 75% of the total number of meetings of the Company's Board and committees of the Board on which he or she served during the time period when the director was a member of the Board in 2020.
