        <footnote id="F1">Acquired in connection with the Merger Agreement by and between Webster Financial Corporation (&quot;Webster&quot;) and Sterling Bancorp (&quot;Sterling&quot;), dated April 18, 2021, pursuant to which Sterling was merged with and into Webster, effective January 31, 2022 (the &quot;Merger&quot;). Pursuant to the Merger, each issued and outstanding share of Sterling common stock was converted into the right to receive 0.4630 shares of Webster common stock.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">On February 2, 2022, the reporting person filed a Form 4 which inadvertently reported that, following the Merger, the reporting person indirectly owned 13,012 shares of the issuer's common stock. In fact, as reported in this amendment, the reporting person, following the Merger, indirectly owns 13,666 shares of the issuer's common stock.</footnote>
