<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On behalf of the boards of directors of Fifth Third Bancorp (&#8220;Fifth Third&#8221;) and Comerica Incorporated (&#8220;Comerica&#8221;), we are pleased to
enclose this joint proxy statement/prospectus relating to the proposed acquisition of Comerica by Fifth Third. We are requesting that you take certain actions as shareholders or stockholders, as applicable, of Fifth Third and Comerica. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The boards of directors of Fifth Third and Comerica have each unanimously approved a merger agreement (as defined below) pursuant to which Fifth Third will
acquire Comerica. This acquisition brings together two <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">long-tenured</FONT> banking franchises to create one of the nation&#8217;s leading banks and is expected to be immediately accretive to shareholders and generate
sustainable long-term growth. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On October&nbsp;5, 2025, Fifth Third and Comerica entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as may be amended, modified
or supplemented from time to time in accordance with its terms, the &#8220;merger agreement&#8221;) with Fifth Third Financial Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Fifth Third (&#8220;Fifth Third Intermediary&#8221;) and Comerica Holdings
Incorporated, a wholly owned subsidiary of Comerica (&#8220;Comerica Holdings&#8221;). The merger agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Comerica will merge with and into Fifth Third Intermediary
(the &#8220;first merger&#8221;), with Fifth Third Intermediary as the surviving corporation, and immediately thereafter, Comerica Holdings will merge with and into Fifth Third Intermediary (the &#8220;second merger,&#8221; and together with the
first merger, collectively, the &#8220;mergers&#8221;), with Fifth Third Intermediary continuing as the surviving corporation. Following the completion of the mergers, at a time determined by Fifth Third, Comerica Bank, a Texas banking association
and a wholly owned subsidiary of Comerica (&#8220;Comerica Bank&#8221;), and Comerica Bank&nbsp;&amp; Trust, National Association, a national banking association and wholly owned subsidiary of Comerica Holdings (&#8220;Comerica Bank&nbsp;&amp;
Trust&#8221;), will each merge with and into Fifth Third Bank, National Association, a national banking association and a wholly owned subsidiary of Fifth Third Intermediary (&#8220;Fifth Third Bank&#8221;) (collectively, the &#8220;bank
mergers&#8221;), with Fifth Third Bank continuing as the surviving bank. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In the first merger, holders of Comerica common stock, par value of $5.00 per
share (&#8220;Comerica common stock&#8221;), will receive 1.8663 shares of Fifth Third common stock, without par value, (&#8220;Fifth Third common stock&#8221;) for each share of Comerica common stock they own (the &#8220;exchange ratio&#8221;),
representing a value of $82.88 per share based upon Fifth Third&#8217;s closing stock price on October&nbsp;3, 2025, the last trading day before public announcement of the transaction, and a 20% premium to Comerica&#8217;s <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">10-day</FONT> volume-weighted average stock price as of October&nbsp;3, 2025. Based on the closing price of Fifth Third common stock on NASDAQ on November 24, 2025, the record date and last practicable trading day before
the date of the accompanying joint proxy statement/prospectus, of $42.33, the exchange ratio represented $79.00&nbsp;per share of Comerica common stock as of such date. Holders of Comerica common stock will receive cash in lieu of fractional shares.
</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition, each share of Comerica&#8217;s 6.875% Fixed-Rate Reset <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-Cumulative</FONT> Perpetual Preferred Stock,
Series&nbsp;B (the &#8220;Comerica preferred stock&#8221;), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the first merger will convert into the right to receive one (1)&nbsp;share of a newly issued series of Fifth Third
preferred stock with terms that are not materially less favorable than the terms of Comerica preferred stock (all shares of such newly created series, collectively, the &#8220;new Fifth Third preferred stock&#8221;). Each outstanding Comerica
depositary share representing a 1/40th interest in a share of Comerica preferred stock will become a new Fifth Third depositary share and will represent a 1/40th interest in a share of the new Fifth Third preferred stock. </P>

indicated or that may be achieved in the future. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The mergers are being accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method with Fifth
Third as the accounting acquirer in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (&#8220;ASC&#8221;) Topic 805, Business Combinations. Under this method of accounting, the aggregate purchase consideration will be allocated to Comerica&#8217;s
assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values at the date of completion of the mergers. The process of valuing the net assets of Comerica immediately prior to the mergers, as well as evaluating accounting policies
for conformity, is preliminary. Any differences between the estimated fair value of the purchase consideration and the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed will be recorded as goodwill. </P>

in more detail in the accompanying notes, the preliminary allocation of the pro forma purchase price reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is subject to adjustment and may vary significantly from the actual
purchase price allocation that will be recorded upon completion of the mergers. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As of the date of this registration statement, Fifth Third has not
completed the valuation analysis and calculations in sufficient detail necessary to arrive at the required estimates of the fair market value of the Comerica assets to be acquired or liabilities to be assumed, other than a preliminary estimate for
intangible assets and certain financial assets and financial liabilities. Accordingly, apart from the aforementioned, certain Comerica assets and liabilities are presented at their respective carrying amounts and should be treated as preliminary
values. A final determination of the fair value of Comerica&#8217;s assets and liabilities will be based on Comerica&#8217;s actual assets and liabilities as of the date the first merger closes (&#8220;closing date&#8221;) and, therefore, cannot be
made prior to the completion of the mergers. In addition, the value of the merger consideration to be paid in shares of Fifth Third common stock upon the completion of the mergers will be determined based on the closing price of Fifth Third&#8217;s
common stock on the closing date and the number of issued and outstanding shares of Comerica common stock immediately prior to the closing. Actual adjustments may differ from the amounts reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined
financial information, and the differences may be material. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Further, Fifth Third has not identified all adjustments necessary to conform Comerica&#8217;s
accounting policies to Fifth Third&#8217;s accounting policies. Upon completion of the mergers, or as more information becomes available, the combined company will perform a more detailed review of Fifth Third&#8217;s accounting policies and
Comerica&#8217;s accounting policies. As a result of that review, differences could be identified between the accounting policies of the two companies that, when conformed, could have a material impact on the combined company&#8217;s financial

available and as additional analysis is performed. The preliminary pro forma adjustments have been made solely for the purpose of providing the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. Fifth Third estimated the fair value of
certain Comerica assets and liabilities based on a preliminary valuation analysis, due diligence information, information presented in Comerica&#8217;s SEC filings and other publicly available information. Until the mergers are completed, both
companies are limited in their ability to share certain information. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Upon completion of the mergers, a final determination of the fair value of Comerica

policies and financial statement presentation is preliminary, and additional differences could be identified prior to completion of the merger. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The
unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting under the provisions of ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, with Fifth Third identified as the accounting acquirer. The fair
value concepts applied are consistent with ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement. Under ASC 805, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination are generally recognized and measured at their estimated fair values as of the
acquisition date. Transaction costs associated with the merger are expensed as incurred. Any excess of the purchase consideration over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired will be allocated to goodwill. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The pro forma allocation of the purchase price is based on preliminary estimates and assumptions and is subject to change. Fifth Third has not completed the
valuation analysis necessary to finalize the fair value estimates of Comerica&#8217;s assets and liabilities. Preliminary estimates have been developed for certain intangible assets and select financial assets and liabilities. Other assets and
liabilities are presented at their historical carrying amounts and should be considered preliminary. The final allocation of the purchase price will be completed within the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">12-month</FONT> measurement period
following the acquisition date, in accordance with ASC Topic 805. A final determination of fair values will be based on Comerica&#8217;s actual assets and liabilities as of the closing date of the merger and may differ materially from the
preliminary estimates presented herein. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September&nbsp;30, 2025 combines the historical
consolidated balance sheets of Fifth Third and Comerica, giving effect to the merger as if it had occurred on September&nbsp;30, 2025. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of income for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2025
and for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2024 combine the historical results of Fifth Third and Comerica, giving effect to the merger as if it had occurred on January&nbsp;1, 2024. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>In addition to the other information contained in or incorporated by reference into this joint proxy statement/prospectus, including the matters addressed
under the caption &#8220;Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements&#8221; beginning on page&nbsp;48, you should carefully consider the following risk factors in deciding whether to vote for the adoption of the merger agreement and
approval of any other proposals to be voted upon. </I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Because the market price of Fifth Third common stock and Comerica common stock may fluctuate,
holders of Comerica common stock cannot be certain of the value of the merger consideration they will receive. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In the first merger, (i)&nbsp;each
share of Comerica common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time (other than certain shares held by Fifth Third or Comerica) will be converted into 1.8663 shares of Fifth Third common stock and (ii)&nbsp;each share of
Comerica preferred stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time (other than certain shares held by Fifth Third or Comerica) will be converted into one (1)&nbsp;share of new Fifth Third preferred stock. The exchange ratio is
fixed and will not be adjusted for changes in the market price of either Comerica common stock or Fifth Third common stock. Changes in the closing-sale price per share of Fifth Third common stock between now and the time of the first merger will
affect the value that holders of Comerica common stock will receive in the first merger, although not the percentage of the combined company that Comerica stockholders will own. Therefore, at the time of the Fifth Third special meeting and the
Comerica special meeting, holders of Comerica common stock will not know the market value of the merger consideration that Comerica stockholders will receive at the effective time. Neither Comerica nor Fifth Third is permitted to terminate the
merger agreement as a result of any increase or decrease in the market price of Fifth Third common stock. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Stock price changes may result from a variety
of factors, including general market and economic conditions, changes in Fifth Third&#8217;s and Comerica&#8217;s businesses, operations and prospects, the performance of peer companies and other financial companies, volatility in the prices of
securities in global financial markets, including market price of Fifth Third, Comerica and other banking companies, and regulatory considerations, many of which factors are beyond Fifth Third&#8217;s and Comerica&#8217;s control. You should obtain
current market quotations for shares of Fifth Third common stock (NASDAQ: FITB) and Comerica common stock (NYSE: CMA). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>The market price of Fifth
Third common stock after the first merger may be affected by factors different from those affecting the shares of Fifth Third common stock or Comerica common stock currently. </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Upon completion of the first merger, holders of Comerica common stock will become holders of Fifth Third common stock. Fifth Third&#8217;s business differs
from that of Comerica&#8217;s. Accordingly, the results of operations of the combined company and the market price of Fifth Third common stock after the completion of the first merger may be affected by factors different from those currently
affecting the independent results of operations of each of Fifth Third and Comerica. For a discussion of the businesses of Fifth Third and Comerica and of certain factors to consider in connection with those businesses, see the documents
incorporated by reference in this joint proxy statement/prospectus and referred to under &#8220;<I>Where You Can Find More Information</I>,&#8221; beginning on page&nbsp;179. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>The future results of Fifth Third following the completion of the first merger may suffer if Fifth Third does not effectively manage its expanded
operations. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Following the first merger, the size and scope of the business of Fifth Third will increase significantly beyond the current size and
scope of either Fifth Third&#8217;s or Comerica&#8217;s business. Fifth Third&#8217;s future success following the first merger will depend, in part, upon its ability to manage its expanded businesses, which will pose challenges for management,
including challenges related to the management and monitoring of new operations and associated increased costs and complexity. There can be no assurances that Fifth Third will be successful or that it will realize the expected operating
efficiencies, cost savings, revenue synergies and other benefits currently anticipated from the first merger. </P>

regularly assess Comerica&#8217;s business objectives and strategies, in light of several factors, including the macroeconomic and banking industry climate and expectations, all with the goal of enhancing long-term value for Comerica&#8217;s
stockholders. As a part of this review, Comerica&#8217;s senior management and board of directors consider and evaluate various strategic alternatives, including performance improvement, organic growth, capital allocation, acquisitions and business
combination transactions. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Fifth Third&#8217;s board of directors and senior management regularly evaluate Fifth Third&#8217;s strategic
course and discuss Fifth Third&#8217;s strategic options, including organic and inorganic growth opportunities. From time to time, Fifth Third considers specific acquisitions if they will accelerate growth, are compatible with Fifth Third&#8217;s
business plans and culture and create the potential for meaningful financial rewards for Fifth Third&#8217;s shareholders. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Over
the&nbsp;years, Comerica&#8217;s senior management and board of directors have had discussions with investment bankers and financial institutions, in an effort to maintain knowledge of the relevant market for business combinations and to gauge the
potential interest level and suitability of various financial institutions with respect to exploring a business combination with Comerica. These contacts have occurred through formal and informal meetings and telephone calls and impromptu meetings
at investor conferences, banking industry conferences and social settings, and have been preliminary and exploratory in nature. Curtis C. Farmer, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Comerica, and Timothy N. Spence, Chairman, Chief
Executive Officer and President of Fifth Third, have known each other for several years and have periodically discussed trends in the financial services industry and their respective companies. These prior discussions did not involve the possibility
of Fifth Third acquiring or combining with Comerica. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Comerica&#8217;s discussions became more focused following the period in 2023 when a
number of regional banks experienced liquidity issues. Comerica&#8217;s senior management and board of directors considered and reviewed the resulting impact of these issues on Comerica&#8217;s business as well as the businesses of similarly
situated regional banks, including the impact on various financial metrics. As part of this review, Comerica&#8217;s senior management and board of directors considered a variety of strategic matters, including maintaining an awareness of the
various strategic alternatives potentially available to Comerica, which included a merger, acquisition, sale, merger of equals or maintaining the status quo and held various exploratory conversations. Throughout 2024 and 2025, as part of this review
and in light of these considerations, Comerica&#8217;s board of directors remained apprised of the regional bank M&amp;A environment and potential counterparties to a strategic transaction. </P>

performance and discussed various strategic alternatives available to Comerica with Comerica&#8217;s senior management. These meetings included discussion of the benefits of scale and diversification in the current and prospective environment in
which Comerica operates, including in addressing economic conditions, the interest rate environment, the accelerating pace of technological change in the banking industry, increased operating costs resulting from regulatory and compliance mandates,
the competitive environment for financial institutions generally and the challenges facing Comerica as an independent institution. Based on these discussions, Comerica&#8217;s board of directors authorized Comerica&#8217;s senior management to begin
to explore the potential for a business combination transaction with another financial institution and to solicit and engage in discussions with counterparties that might be interested in pursuing a potential strategic transaction. </P>

alternatives available to Comerica, including a potential transaction with Fifth Third, other potential counterparties to a business combination transaction and the potential benefits and drawbacks of pursuing a transaction with such alternative
parties. The Comerica board of directors concluded that such proposals made by Financial Institution&nbsp;A were preliminary and were not likely to be more attractive than the consideration that could be offered by another counterparty, including
Fifth Third. The Comerica board of directors discussed alternative potential counterparties to a business combination transaction and, following discussion, including based on the strategic factors outlined in the section entitled
&#8220;<I>Comerica&#8217;s Reasons for the Merger; Recommendation of the Comerica Board of Directors</I>&#8221;, determined that Fifth Third would be the optimal merger counterparty to a business combination transaction if Fifth Third were to make a
proposal which appropriately valued Comerica, and authorized senior management to engage with Fifth Third further. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On September&nbsp;18,
2025, Mr. Farmer called Mr. Spence and indicated to Mr. Spence that the Comerica board of directors was exploring a potential strategic transaction and inquired as to whether Fifth Third would be prepared to pursue a potential transaction. The
following day, Mr. Spence and Mr. Farmer met in Dallas, Texas to discuss a potential strategic transaction, including the value creation opportunities in a potential transaction, the complementarity of the two companies&#8217; lines of business and
the compatibility of the companies&#8217; respective cultures. Mr. Farmer and Mr. Spence also discussed the relative growth of the largest U.S. banks compared to U.S. regional banks, the current bank regulatory environment and their views on their
respective businesses. At the conclusion of this meeting, Mr. Spence indicated to Mr. Farmer that he would update members of the Fifth Third board of directors on their discussions. Later that day Fifth Third asked Goldman Sachs to assist Fifth
Third in its evaluation of a potential acquisition of Comerica. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On September&nbsp;22, 2025, Mr. Spence convened a special meeting of the
executive committee of the Fifth Third board of directors to consider Mr. Farmer&#8217;s outreach and Mr. Spence&#8217;s preliminary discussions with Mr.&nbsp;Farmer. During such meeting, Mr. Spence and the executive committee discussed the
potential terms of an acquisition of Comerica, subject to further due diligence, and the opportunities presented by the potential transaction. The executive committee also discussed with representatives of Goldman Sachs certain financial aspects
relating to a potential acquisition of Comerica. Based on the discussion, the executive committee directed Mr. Spence to submit an acquisition proposal to Comerica along the lines of these potential terms. Also on September 22, 2025, following the
direction of the Fifth Third executive committee, Fifth Third management determined proposed terms for Fifth Third to acquire Comerica, including a fixed exchange ratio range. </P>

Institution&nbsp;A and other potential counterparties. The Comerica board of directors discussed its preference for a transaction with Fifth Third, including on the basis that the Fifth Third proposal appropriately valued Comerica and that such
valuation was higher than the valuation implied by Financial Institution&nbsp;A&#8217;s proposals, that the stock of Fifth Third was a valuable currency that traded among the highest levels of peer institutions and had a strong dividend yield, the
strategic benefits of a transaction with Fifth Third as compared to a transaction with other potential counterparties and the likelihood of a transaction with another counterparty being consummated on superior terms. The Comerica board of directors
authorized Comerica&#8217;s senior management, financial advisor and legal advisor to continue discussions with Fifth Third on the basis of the proposal. Following this meeting, on September&nbsp;23, 2025, Mr. Farmer communicated to Mr.&nbsp;Spence

performance of Comerica, its businesses, and the potential financial implications of a potential acquisition of Comerica, including the potential synergies and other benefits that could be realized, the cultural alignment between Fifth Third and
Comerica and regulatory considerations with respect to a potential acquisition. Mr. Spence presented an overview of the nonbinding indication of interest delivered to Comerica, including the contemplated form and amount of consideration and the

contemplated by the merger agreement, the Fifth Third board of directors did not quantify or assign any relative weights to the factors considered, and individual directors may have given different weights to different factors. The board of
directors considered all these factors as a whole, including discussions with, and questioning of, Fifth Third&#8217;s management and Fifth Third&#8217;s independent financial and legal advisors, and overall considered the factors to support its
determination. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For the reasons set forth above, the Fifth Third board of directors unanimously determined that the merger agreement and

of Fifth Third and its shareholders; and it was in the best interests of Fifth Third and its shareholders to enter into and to consummate the transactions set forth in the merger agreement and adopted and approved the merger agreement and the
transactions contemplated thereby (including the mergers, the bank mergers and the Fifth Third stock issuance). In addition, for the reasons set forth above, the Fifth Third board of directors unanimously, authorized management to execute the merger
agreement, to submit the Fifth Third stock issuance provided for in the merger agreement for the approval of Fifth Third&#8217;s voting shareholders, and recommended that Fifth Third&#8217;s voting shareholders approve the Fifth Third stock
issuance. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In considering the recommendation of the Fifth Third board of directors, you should be aware that certain directors and
executive officers of Fifth Third may have interests in the mergers that are different from, or in addition to, interests of shareholders of Fifth Third generally and may create potential conflicts of interest. The Fifth Third board of directors was
aware of these interests and considered them when evaluating and negotiating the merger agreement, the merger and the other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, and in recommending to Fifth Third&#8217;s shareholders that they vote in
favor of the Fifth Third Stock Issuance proposal. See &#8220;<I>The Mergers&nbsp;&#8212; Interests of Certain Fifth Third Directors and Executive Officers in the First Merger</I>&#8221; beginning on page&nbsp;107. </P>

regarding their assessment of the past and current business operations, financial condition, and future prospects of Comerica and with the members of senior management of Fifth Third regarding their assessment of the past and current business
operations, financial condition and future prospects of Fifth Third and the strategic rationale for, and the potential benefits of, the mergers; reviewed the reported price and trading activity for the shares of Fifth Third common stock and the
shares of Comerica common stock; compared certain financial and stock market information for Fifth Third and Comerica with similar information for certain other companies the securities of which are publicly traded; reviewed the financial terms of
certain recent business combinations in the banking industry; and performed such other studies and analyses, and considered such other factors, as it deemed appropriate. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For purposes of rendering this opinion, Goldman Sachs, with the Fifth Third board of directors&#8217; consent, relied upon and assumed the accuracy and
completeness of all of the financial, legal, regulatory, tax, accounting and other information provided to, discussed with or reviewed by, it, without assuming any responsibility for independent verification thereof. In that regard, Goldman Sachs
assumed with Fifth Third&#8217;s consent that the Forecasts, including the Synergies, were reasonably prepared on a basis reflecting the best then available estimates and judgments of the management of Fifth Third. Goldman Sachs did not review
individual credit files nor did it make an independent evaluation or appraisal of the assets and liabilities (including any contingent, derivative or other <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">off-balance-sheet</FONT> assets and liabilities) of Fifth
Third or Comerica or any of their respective subsidiaries and it was not furnished with any such evaluation or appraisal. Goldman Sachs is not an expert in the evaluation of loan and lease portfolios for purposes of assessing the adequacy of the
allowances and marks for losses with respect thereto and, accordingly, Goldman Sachs assumed that such allowances for losses for Fifth Third and Comerica are in the aggregate adequate to cover such losses. Goldman Sachs assumed that all
governmental, regulatory or other consents and approvals necessary for the consummation of the mergers will be obtained without any adverse effect on Fifth Third or Comerica or on the expected benefits of the mergers in any way meaningful to its
analysis. Goldman Sachs also assumed that the mergers will be consummated on the terms set forth in the merger agreement, without the waiver or modification of any term or condition the effect of which would be in any way meaningful to its analysis.
</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Goldman Sachs&#8217; opinion does not address the underlying business decision of Fifth Third to engage in the mergers or the relative merits of the
mergers as compared to any strategic alternatives that may be available to Fifth Third; nor does it address any legal, regulatory, tax or accounting matters. Goldman Sachs&#8217; opinion addresses only the fairness from a financial point of view to
Fifth Third, as of the date of the opinion, of the exchange ratio pursuant to the merger agreement. Goldman Sachs&#8217; opinion does not express any view on, and does not address, any other term or aspect of the merger agreement or the mergers or
any term or aspect of any other agreement or instrument contemplated by the merger agreement or entered into or amended in connection with the mergers, including the fairness of the mergers to, or any consideration received in connection therewith
by, the holders of any other class of securities, creditors, or other constituencies of Fifth Third; nor as to the fairness of the amount or nature of any compensation to be paid or payable to any of the officers, directors or employees of Fifth
Third or Comerica, or any class of such persons in connection with the mergers, whether relative to the exchange ratio pursuant to the merger agreement or otherwise. Goldman Sachs&#8217; opinion is necessarily based on economic, monetary market and
other condition as in effect on, and the information made available to Goldman Sachs as of, the date of its opinion and Goldman Sachs assumes no responsibility for updating, revising or reaffirming its opinion based on circumstances, developments or
events occurring after the date of its opinion. In addition, Goldman Sachs does not express any opinion as to the prices at which shares of Comerica common stock or Fifth Third common stock will trade at any time, as to the potential effects of
volatility in the credit, financial and stock markets on Fifth Third, Comerica or the mergers, or as to the impact of the mergers on the solvency or viability of Fifth Third or Comerica or the ability of Fifth Third or Comerica to pay their
respective obligations when they come due. Goldman Sachs&#8217; opinion was approved by a fairness committee of Goldman Sachs. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The following is a summary of the material financial analyses delivered by Goldman Sachs to the Fifth Third board of directors in connection with rendering the
opinion described above. The following summary, however, does not purport to be a complete description of the financial analyses performed by Goldman Sachs, nor does the order of analyses described represent relative importance or weight given to
those analyses by Goldman Sachs. Some of the summaries of the financial analyses include information presented in tabular format. The tables must be read together with the full text of each summary and are alone not a complete description of Goldman
Sachs&#8217; financial analyses. Except as otherwise noted, the following quantitative information, to the extent that it is based on market data, is based on market data as it existed on or before October&nbsp;3, 2025, the last trading day before
the public announcement of the mergers, and is not necessarily indicative of current market conditions. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For purposes of its financial analyses, Goldman
Sachs calculated an implied value for the exchange ratio of $82.88 by multiplying the exchange ratio pursuant to the merger agreement by $44.41, the closing share price of Fifth Third common stock on October&nbsp;3, 2025. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Illustrative Discounted Dividend Analysis: Comerica </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Using the Forecasts, Goldman Sachs performed an illustrative discounted dividend analyses for Comerica, both on a standalone basis as well as on a standalone
basis but taking into account the effect of the mergers, to derive a range of illustrative present values per share of the Comerica common stock on a standalone basis and on a standalone basis taking into account the effect of the mergers. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Using discount rates ranging from 12.0% to 14.0%, reflecting estimates of the cost of equity for Comerica, Goldman Sachs derived a range of illustrative
equity values for Comerica by discounting to present value as of June&nbsp;30, 2025, (a) the implied distributions to/infusions from Comerica&#8217;s stockholders over the period beginning June&nbsp;30, 2025 through December&nbsp;31, 2029,
calculated using the Forecasts for Comerica, on a standalone basis as well as on a standalone basis but taking into account the effect of the mergers, assuming in each case, at the direction of Fifth Third management, that Comerica would make
distributions of capital in excess of the amount necessary to achieve a target common equity tier 1 capital of 9.5%, and (b)&nbsp;a range of illustrative terminal values for Comerica, on a standalone basis as well as on a standalone basis but taking
into account the effect of the mergers, as of December&nbsp;31, 2029, calculated by applying illustrative next 12 months (&#8220;NTM&#8221;) estimated earnings per share (&#8220;EPS&#8221;) multiples (such multiples, &#8220;NTM Price/EPS&#8221;)
ranging from 10.0x to 13.0x to the estimate of Comerica&#8217;s terminal year 2030 net income, as reflected in the Forecasts for Comerica on a standalone basis as well as the Forecasts for Comerica on a standalone basis but taking into account the
effect of the mergers. Goldman Sachs derived the range of discount rates by application of the capital asset pricing model (&#8220;CAPM&#8221;), which requires certain company-specific inputs, including a beta for Comerica, as well as certain
financial metrics for the United States financial markets generally. Goldman Sachs derived the range of illustrative NTM Price/EPS multiples based on its professional judgment and experience, taking into account current and historical multiples NTM
Price/EPS for Comerica. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Goldman Sachs divided the ranges of illustrative equity values it derived for Comerica on a standalone basis as well as the
ranges of those values taking into account the effect of the mergers by the total number of fully diluted shares of Comerica outstanding as provided by Fifth Third management to derive illustrative ranges of present values per share of Comerica
common stock on a standalone basis of $56.38 to $70.45 and on a standalone basis but taking into account the effect of the mergers of $90.28 to $120.43. </P>

standalone basis as of December&nbsp;31 2026, 2027 and 2028, by applying a range of multiples of illustrative NTM Price/EPS of 10.0x to 13.0x to the estimates of the EPS of Comerica for each of
the fiscal years 2027, 2028 and 2029, respectively, as set forth in the Forecasts. Goldman Sachs derived the range of illustrative NTM Price/EPS multiples based on its professional judgment and experience, taking into account current and historical
NTM Price/EPS multiples for Comerica. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Goldman Sachs then discounted these implied future values per share and the estimated dividends to be paid per
share of Comerica common stock through the end of the applicable year as reflected in the Forecasts to June&nbsp;30, 2025, using an illustrative discount rate of 13.0%, reflecting an estimate of the Comerica&#8217;s cost of equity. Goldman Sachs
derived such discount rate by application of the CAPM. This analysis resulted in a range of implied present values per share of Comerica common stock of $51.75 to $66.19. </P>

Sachs performed a regression analysis using the tangible book value (&#8220;TBV&#8221;) per share multiples (such multiples, &#8220;Price/TBV&#8221; per share) for the Comerica selected companies calculated by Goldman Sachs as described below in the
section captioned &#8220;&#8212;Selected Public Companies Multiples&#8221; compared to the 2026 estimated return on average tangible common equity (&#8220;2026E ROATCE&#8221;) for those selected companies using the median estimates for such
companies published by Factset as of October&nbsp;3, 2025 to derive a regression line reflecting a range of Price/TBV per share multiples at a range of 2026E ROATCE for the Comerica selected companies. Goldman Sachs observed that the 2026E ROATCE
for Comerica as reflected in the Forecasts corresponded to an implied Price/TBV per share multiple of 1.34x on the regression line. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Based on this
observation, Goldman Sachs applied implied Price/TBV per share multiples ranging from 1.24x to 1.44x to the TBV per share as of June&nbsp;30, 2025 for Comerica, as reflected in its publicly available filings, to derive a range of implied values per
share of Comerica common stock of $59.64 to $69.24. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Selected Precedent Transactions Analysis </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Goldman Sachs analyzed certain publicly available information relating to certain acquisition transactions announced since January&nbsp;1, 2015 involving
target companies in the banking industry in the United States in which the implied transaction value was greater than $2&nbsp;billion (excluding mergers of equals). </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">While none of the target companies in the selected transactions are directly comparable to Comerica and none of the selected transactions are directly
comparable to the mergers, the target companies in the selected transactions are companies with certain operations that, for the purposes of analysis, may be considered similar to certain operations of Comerica, and as such, for purposes of the
analysis, the selected transactions may be considered similar to the mergers. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Using publicly available information, for each of the selected
transactions, Goldman Sachs calculated (i)&nbsp;Price/TBV per share multiples as of the last full reported quarter prior to the announcement of the applicable transaction, and (ii)&nbsp;Price/EPS for its second full fiscal year following the
announcement of the applicable transaction (referred as &#8220;Price/FY2 EPS&#8221;), in each case using information disclosed in public company filings, estimates published by Factset, S&amp;P Global databases and public company filings. The
selected transactions and the implied multiples calculated for the transactions are set forth below. </P> <P STYLE="font-size:12pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>

complete the first merger, Fifth Third and Comerica need to obtain approvals or consents from, or make filings with, a number of U.S. federal and state bank, antitrust, securities, insurance and other regulatory authorities. Subject to the terms of
the merger agreement, Fifth Third and Comerica have agreed to cooperate with each other and use reasonable best efforts to obtain as promptly as practicable all permits, consents, approvals and authorizations of all third parties, regulatory
agencies and governmental entities which are necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement (including the mergers and the bank mergers), and to comply with the terms and conditions of all such permits,
consents, approvals and authorizations of all such third parties and governmental entities. These approvals include, among others, the approval of the Federal Reserve Board and the OCC. Under the terms of the merger agreement, neither Fifth Third
nor Comerica nor any of their respective subsidiaries are required to take any action or agree to any condition or restriction in connection with obtaining these approvals that would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on
Comerica and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The approval of an application means only that the regulatory criteria for approval have been satisfied

not impose conditions or restrictions that, individually or in the aggregate, would or could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Comerica and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, in which case Fifth Third is not obligated to
close the first merger. There can likewise be no assurances that U.S. federal or state regulatory authorities will not attempt to challenge the first merger or, if such a challenge is made, what the result of such challenge will be. </P>

subject to the approval of the Federal Reserve under Section&nbsp;3 of the BHC Act. The bank mergers are subject to the approval of the OCC under the National Bank Act, the Bank Merger Act, and the Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching
Efficiency Act of 1994 (12 U.S.C. &#167; 1831u) (the &#8220;Riegle-Neal Act&#8221;). The Federal Reserve and the OCC take into consideration a number of factors when acting on applications under the BHC Act and the Bank Merger Act and National Bank
Act, respectively. These factors include the effect of the mergers on competitiveness in affected banking markets, the financial and managerial resources (including consideration of the capital adequacy, liquidity and earnings performance, as well
as the competence, experience and integrity of the directors and officers, and the records of compliance with applicable laws and regulations) and future prospects of the combined company. The Federal Reserve and the OCC also consider the
effectiveness of the applicant in combatting money laundering, the convenience and needs of the communities to be served, and the extent to which the proposal would result in greater or more concentrated risks to the stability of the U.S. banking or
financial system. The parties also believe that the Federal Reserve will also consider Fifth Third&#8217;s and Comerica&#8217;s record of compliance with law and regulation. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In connection with an interstate merger transaction, the OCC considers certain additional factors under the Riegle-Neal Act, including the relevant state laws
regarding the minimum age of the bank to be acquired, the concentration of deposits on a nationwide and statewide basis, and compliance with any applicable state community reinvestment and antitrust laws. Under the Riegle-Neal Act, the OCC may
approve an interstate bank merger transaction only if each constituent bank is adequately capitalized at the time the application for such transaction is filed with the OCC, and the OCC determines that the resulting bank will be well capitalized and
well managed upon the consummation of the transaction. Similarly, under the Riegle-Neal Act, the Federal Reserve may approve an interstate merger transaction only if the acquiring bank holding company is well capitalized and well managed and meets
certain other requirements. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As part of the application review process in merger transactions, the Federal Reserve and the OCC each may receive comment
letters from members of the public. In their most recent CRA performance evaluations, each of Fifth Third Bank and Comerica Bank received an overall &#8220;outstanding&#8221; regulatory rating under the CRA. </P>

review of the mergers to analyze the mergers&#8217; competitive effects and determine whether the mergers comply with the antitrust laws. Transactions approved under Section&nbsp;3 of the BHC Act or the Bank Merger Act generally may not be completed
until thirty (30)&nbsp;days after the approval of the applicable federal agency is received, during which time the DOJ may challenge the transaction on antitrust grounds. With the approval of the applicable federal agency and the concurrence of the
DOJ, the waiting period may be reduced to no less than fifteen (15)&nbsp;days. The commencement of an antitrust action would stay the effectiveness of such an approval unless a court specifically ordered otherwise. In reviewing the mergers, the DOJ
could analyze the mergers&#8217; effect on competition differently than the Federal Reserve and OCC and, thus, it is possible that the DOJ could reach a different conclusion than the Federal Reserve or the OCC regarding the mergers&#8217; effects on
competition. A determination by the DOJ not to object to the mergers does not prevent the filing of antitrust actions by private persons or state attorneys general. </P>

represented by Comerica depositary shares that represent a 1/40th ownership interest in a share of the Comerica preferred stock. Upon completion of the first merger, Fifth Third will assume the obligations of Comerica under the deposit agreement.
Each Comerica depositary share representing a 1/40th ownership interest of Comerica preferred stock will become a new Fifth Third depositary share and will represent a 1/40th ownership interest in a share of new Fifth Third preferred stock. </P>

it is the legal document governing the mergers. This section is not intended to provide you with any factual information about Fifth Third or Comerica. Such information can be found elsewhere in this joint proxy statement/prospectus and in the

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The merger agreement and this summary of terms are included to provide you with information regarding the terms of the merger agreement. Factual disclosures
about Fifth Third and Comerica contained in this joint proxy statement/prospectus or in the public reports of Fifth Third or Comerica filed with the SEC may supplement, update or modify the factual disclosures about Fifth Third and Comerica
contained in the merger agreement. The merger agreement contains representations and warranties by Fifth Third, on the one hand, and by Comerica, on the other hand, made solely for the benefit of the other. The representations, warranties and
covenants made in the merger agreement by Fifth Third and Comerica were qualified and subject to important limitations agreed to by Fifth Third and Comerica in connection with negotiating the terms of the merger agreement. In particular, in your
review of the representations and warranties contained in the merger agreement and described in this summary, it is important to bear in mind that the representations and warranties were negotiated with the principal purpose of establishing
circumstances in which a party to the merger agreement may have the right not to consummate the first merger if the representations and warranties of the other party prove to be untrue due to a change in circumstance or otherwise, and allocating
risk between the parties to the merger agreement, rather than establishing matters as facts. The representations and warranties also may be subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from that generally applicable to shareholders and
reports and documents filed with the SEC, and some were qualified by the matters contained in the confidential disclosure schedules that Fifth Third and Comerica each delivered in connection with the merger agreement and certain documents filed with
the SEC. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties, which do not purport to be accurate as of the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, may have changed since the date of the merger agreement.
Accordingly, the representations and warranties in the merger agreement should not be relied on by any persons as characterizations of the actual state of facts about Fifth Third and Comerica at the time they were made or otherwise. </P>

&#8220;Voting Parity Securities&#8221;), voting together as a class, at a special meeting called at the request of the holders of at least 20% of the voting power of new Fifth Third preferred stock and any Voting Parity Securities (unless such
request for a special meeting is received less than 90 calendar days before the date fixed for the next annual or special meeting of Fifth Third shareholders, in which event such election will be held only at such next annual or special meeting of
Fifth Third shareholders) or at Fifth Third next annual or special meeting of Fifth Third shareholders, to elect two additional directors to Fifth Third&#8217;s board of directors; <I>provided</I>, that the election of any such director does not
cause Fifth Third to violate the applicable corporate governance requirements of the exchange or trading market where Fifth Third common stock is then listed or quoted, as the case may be. At any meeting held for the purpose of electing such
directors, the presence in person, virtually or by proxy of the holders of shares representing at least a majority of the voting power of new Fifth Third preferred stock and any Voting Parity Securities, voting together as a class, will be required
to constitute a quorum of such shares. The affirmative vote of the holders of new Fifth Third preferred stock and the holders of any Voting Parity Securities, voting together as a class, representing a majority of the voting power of such shares
present at such meeting, in person, virtually or by proxy, will be sufficient to elect any such director. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Immediately prior to the election of any such

Fifth Third preferred stock or the Voting Parity Securities entitled thereto. At that point, the right to elect additional directors terminates and the terms of office of the two additional directors so elected will terminate immediately, and the
number of directors will be reduced by two and such voting rights of the holders of new Fifth Third preferred stock and any Voting Parity Securities will cease, subject to any increase in the number of directors as described above due to the
revesting of such voting rights in the event of each and every additional failure in the payment of dividends or six quarterly dividend periods, or their equivalent, whether or not consecutive, as described above. </P>

director becomes vacant for any reason other than removal, the remaining director may choose a successor who will hold office for the unexpired term of the vacant office. In the event that both offices are vacant, the holders of new Fifth Third
preferred stock and the holders of any Voting Parity Securities may, as set forth above, call a special meeting and elect such directors at such special meeting, or elect such directors at the next Fifth Third annual or special meeting of Fifth
Third shareholders. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The number of votes that each share of new Fifth Third preferred stock and any stock ranking equally with the new Fifth Third

deposit agreement among Fifth Third, Computershare Inc., as joint depositary and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as registrar and joint depositary, and the holders from time to time of the depositary receipts evidencing the new Fifth Third

proportionally among those holders or that it is not feasible to make a distribution (including any requirement that Fifth Third or the depositary withhold an amount on account of taxes). In that event, Fifth Third may adopt a method that Fifth
Third deems equitable and practicable for purposes of effecting the distribution, including selling the property (at a public or private sale) and distributing the net proceeds from the sale to the holders of the new Fifth Third depositary shares in

would be entitled to receive such fractional share an amount in cash (without interest and rounded to the nearest cent) determined by multiplying (i)&nbsp;the average of the closing-sale price of Fifth Third Common Stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market

Comerica Preferred Stock such holder holds as determined pursuant to this Agreement, in each case, without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of Fifth Third, Comerica, the Surviving Entity, the Exchange Agent or any other
