Materials supplement the definitive proxy statement, which was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the &#147;SEC&#148;) on April&nbsp;26, 2024 (the &#147;Proxy Statement&#148;) by New York Community Bancorp, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the &#147;Company&#148; or &#147;NYCB&#148;), for use at NYCB&#146;s Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the &#147;Annual Meeting&#148;) and any adjournment or postponement thereof. The Annual Meeting will be held in a &#147;virtual&#148;
format through a live webcast on June&nbsp;5, 2024, at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/NYCB2024. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The purpose of
this supplement is to correct the characterization of Proposal 5 (Proposal to Amend the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company to effect a reverse stock split of Company&#146;s common stock by a ratio of <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">1-3)</FONT> to reflect that the proposal is considered a &#147;routine&#148; instead of a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">&#147;non-routine&#148;</FONT> matter. This supplement should be read in conjunction with the Proxy
Statement. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Corrected Information Regarding Proposal 5 (Proposal to Amend the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company to
effect a reverse stock split of the Company&#146;s common stock by a ratio of <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">1-3)</FONT> </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">At the Annual Meeting,
shareholders of record will be asked to approve an amendment to the Company&#146;s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to effect (i)&nbsp;a reverse stock split of all outstanding shares of the Company&#146;s common stock at an exchange
ratio of <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">one-for-three</FONT></FONT> (1:3) and (ii)&nbsp;a corresponding reduction in the total number of authorized shares of common stock of the Company (&#147;Proposal 5&#148;).
The Proxy Statement stated that Proposal 5 was a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">&#147;non-routine&#148;</FONT> matter, but the New York Stock Exchange (the &#147;NYSE&#148;) has since advised the Company that Proposal 5 is a &#147;routine&#148;
matter under NYSE rules. The Company wishes to correct this information and hereby supplements the Proxy Statement to correct the characterization of Proposal 5 to reflect that it is a &#147;routine&#148; matter. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">With respect to &#147;routine&#148; matters, a broker, bank or other nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner has the authority to vote such beneficial
owner&#146;s shares even if such beneficial owner does not provide voting instructions with respect to such shares. With respect to <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">&#147;non-routine&#148;</FONT> matters, a broker, bank or other nominee holding
shares for a beneficial owner is not permitted to vote such beneficial owner&#146;s shares in the absence of voting instructions from such beneficial owner. Thus, any shares held by a broker, bank or other nominee on behalf of a beneficial owner for
which voting instructions are not provided will not be voted with respect to any <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">&#147;non-routine&#148;</FONT> matter and will result in a &#147;broker <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-vote.&#148;</FONT> Broker <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-votes</FONT> are generally counted for purposes of establishing a quorum to conduct business at the meeting, but not for determining the number of shares voted &#147;FOR,&#148; &#147;AGAINST,&#148; &#147;ABSTAIN&#148;
or &#147;WITHHOLD&#148; on any proposals concerning <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-routine</FONT> matters. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Proxy Statement originally stated
that Proposal 5 is a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">&#147;non-routine&#148;</FONT> matter and that broker <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-votes</FONT> on Proposal 5 will have no effect on the outcome of Proposal 5. However, since Proposal 5
has been deemed a &#147;routine&#148; matter by the NYSE, brokers, banks and other nominees holding shares on behalf of beneficial owners will have the discretion to vote such shares even in the absence of voting instructions from such beneficial
owners. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Except as specifically supplemented or corrected by the information contained herein, all information set forth in the Proxy Statement remains
unchanged. From and after the date of this supplement, all references to the &#147;Proxy Statement&#148; are to the Proxy Statement as supplemented hereby. </P>
