P a g e | 4 MANAGEMENT PROXY CIRCULAR PART I – VOTING AND PROXY INFORMATION SOLICITATION OF PROXIES BY MANAGEMENT This Management Proxy Circular is furnished to holders (“Shareholders”) of common shares (“Shares”) of VersaBank (the “Bank”) in connection with the solicitation of proxies by or on behalf of the management of the Bank for use at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders, and any adjournment or postponement thereof (the “Meeting”). The Meeting will be held at the VersaBank Innovation Centre of Excellence, 1979 Otter Place, London Ontario, and broadcast live from the Nasdaq Listing Centre, 4 Times Square, New York, NY 10036 on Thursday, April 24, 2025, at 10:30 a.m. (ET) for the purposes set forth in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Notice”). It is expected that management will solicit proxies electronically and by mail. Proxies may also be solicited personally or by telephone by officers and directors and other representatives of the Bank, as the case may be. The cost of solicitation by or on behalf of management will be borne by the Bank. This Management Proxy Circular and other proxy-related materials are being sent to both Registered and Non- Registered Shareholders (each as defined below). The Bank is not sending proxy-related materials directly to Non- Registered Shareholders and is not relying on the notice-and-access provisions of applicable securities laws for the delivery of proxy-related materials to either Registered or Non-Registered Shareholders. Instead, the Bank will deliver proxy-related materials to intermediaries (as defined below under the heading “Voting and Proxy Information – Advice to Non-Registered Shareholders”) and they will be asked to promptly forward the proxy-related materials to Non-Registered Shareholders. If you are a Non-Registered Shareholder, your intermediary should send you a voting instruction form or form of proxy with this Management Proxy Circular. The Bank has elected to pay for the delivery of the proxy-related materials to objecting Non-Registered Shareholders. APPOINTMENT OF PROXIES The persons named in the enclosed form of proxy and voting instruction forms are directors and/or officers of the Bank. AS A SHAREHOLDER, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO APPOINT A PERSON, WHO NEED NOT BE A SHAREHOLDER, AS YOUR NOMINEE TO ATTEND AND ACT ON YOUR BEHALF AT THE MEETING OTHER THAN THE PERSONS DESIGNATED IN THE ENCLOSED FORM OF PROXY. This right may be exercised by inserting such person’s name in the blank space provided in the form of proxy. Proxies are to be returned to Odyssey Trust Company in accordance with the instructions provided in the enclosed form of proxy. A proxy is only valid at the Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof. Shareholders who are recorded on the Bank’s share register as the registered owners of their Shares (“Registered Shareholders”) and who plan to attend and vote their Shares in person at the Meeting should not complete or return the enclosed form of proxy. Their votes will be taken and counted at the Meeting. Such Registered Shareholders are to register with the Bank’s transfer agent, Odyssey Trust Company, upon their arrival at the Meeting. ADVICE TO NON-REGISTERED SHAREHOLDERS The information in this section is of significant importance to a substantial number of Shareholders who do not hold their Shares in their own name, but who hold their Shares indirectly through a bank, trust company, securities

P a g e | 5 broker, trustee or other entity (an “intermediary”). Shareholders that do not hold their Shares in their own name are referred to in this document as “Non-Registered Shareholders.” As Shares held by intermediaries on behalf of their clients can only be voted for or against resolutions upon the instructions of the applicable Non-Registered Shareholder, each intermediary is required to seek instructions from such Non-Registered Shareholders as to how their Shares are to be voted at the Meeting. For that reason, if you are a Non-Registered Shareholder, you will have received this Management Proxy Circular from your intermediary along with a form of proxy or a voting instruction form. Every intermediary has its own mailing procedures and provides its own return instructions, which Non-Registered Shareholders should follow closely in order to ensure that their Shares are voted at the Meeting. A Non-Registered Shareholder may have received from the intermediary either a request for voting instructions or a form of proxy that is identical to the form of proxy provided to Registered Shareholders; however, the purpose of any such form of proxy is limited to instructing the intermediary how to vote on behalf of the Non-Registered Shareholder. A Non- Registered Shareholder must return the voting instruction form or the form of proxy to its intermediary well in advance of the Meeting in order to have his, her or its Shares voted. A Non-Registered Shareholder that receives a form of proxy or voting instruction form from an intermediary cannot use that form of proxy or voting instruction form to vote shares directly at the Meeting. Non-Registered Shareholders who wish to vote in person at the Meeting or appoint a person as their nominee to attend and vote on their behalf at the Meeting must provide their intermediary with the appropriate documentation in order to be appointed as proxyholder. A Non-Registered Shareholder should contact its intermediary to determine what documentation the intermediary requires in order for such Non-Registered Shareholder or its nominee to be appointed proxyholder, and to attend and vote their Shares at the Meeting. Only after the intermediary appoints a Non-Registered Shareholder or its nominee as a proxyholder can that Non-Registered Shareholder or its nominee vote shares directly at the Meeting. The majority of intermediaries now delegate responsibility for obtaining instructions from clients to Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”). Broadridge typically prepares a special voting instruction form, mails those forms to Non-Registered Shareholders and asks for appropriate instructions respecting the voting of Shares to be represented at the Meeting. Non-Registered Shareholders are requested to complete and return the voting instruction form to Broadridge by mail in the envelope provided. Alternatively, Non-Registered Shareholders can call a toll-free telephone number or access Broadridge’s dedicated voting website (each as noted on the voting instruction form) to deliver their voting instructions and vote the Shares held by them. Broadridge then tabulates the results of all voting instructions received and provides appropriate instructions respecting the voting of Shares to be represented at the Meeting. A Non-Registered Shareholder receiving a voting instruction form from Broadridge must complete and return such form in accordance with the instructions set out thereon well in advance of the Meeting in order to have his, her or its Shares voted. Further, a Non-Registered Shareholder receiving a voting instruction form from Broadridge cannot use that form to vote his, her or its Shares in person at the Meeting. If you are a Non-Registered Shareholder receiving a Broadridge voting instruction form and you wish to vote your Shares in person at the Meeting, you should contact your intermediary and follow their instructions for completion and return of the form of proxy or voting instruction form provided directly by them, once received. REVOCATION OF PROXIES Registered Shareholders A Registered Shareholder may revoke a proxy: (a) by an instrument in writing executed by the Shareholder or by an attorney in writing or, if the Shareholder is a corporation, under its corporate seal or by an officer or attorney thereof duly authorized, and deposited:

P a g e | 6 i. at the registered office of the Bank (Suite 2002, 140 Fullarton Street, London, Ontario N6A 5P2) at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the day of the Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof; or ii. with the chair of the Meeting at the Meeting; or (b) in any other manner permitted by law. Non-Registered Shareholders If you are a Non-Registered Shareholder and wish to revoke your voting instructions, follow the instructions provided by your intermediary in your voting instruction form or contact your intermediary. EXERCISE OF DISCRETION WITH RESPECT TO PROXIES Shares represented by proxies will be voted or withheld from voting by the persons designated in the form of proxy or voting instruction form in accordance with the direction of the Shareholders appointing them. Other than with respect to the election of directors which is addressed below, in the event that no specifications are made in the form of proxy or voting instruction form designating management’s nominees as proxyholders, the Shares represented by the proxies will be voted by such proxyholders FOR the matters identified in the Notice to be voted upon at the Meeting. As described below under the heading “Business to be Transacted at the Meeting – Election of Directors”, voting for the election of nominees to the Bank’s board of directors (the “Board”) must be done by cumulative voting. Unless a Shareholder giving a proxy or voting instructions specifies that the Shares represented by such proxy or voting instructions be withheld from voting on the election of all or any of the directors, or specifies how the Shareholder wishes to distribute the votes represented by the proxy or voting instructions among the candidates, the persons named in the enclosed form of proxy or voting instruction form intend to vote the Shares represented by such proxy or voting instructions FOR the election of the nominees listed herein (or any replacements thereof) and to distribute votes among such nominees in such manner as in their discretion is most likely to cause such nominees to be duly elected as the directors of the Bank at the Meeting. The enclosed form of proxy and/or voting instruction form confers discretionary authority upon the persons named therein as proxyholders with respect to amendments and variations to matters identified in the Notice to be voted upon at the Meeting, and with respect to other matters that may properly come before the Meeting. At the time of the preparation of this Management Proxy Circular, management of the Bank knows of no such amendments, variations or other matters to come before the Meeting. If, however, amendments, variations or other matters which are not now known to management of the Bank should properly come before the Meeting, the Shares represented by any proxy or voting instructions will be voted by the persons named in the form of proxy and voting instruction form in accordance with their best judgment. QUORUM A quorum is present at the Meeting if the holders of at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the Shares who are entitled to vote at the Meeting are present in person or represented by proxyholders. PART II – VOTING SHARES AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS OF VOTING SHARES As of February 28, 2025, there were 32,518,786 Shares issued and outstanding. Each Share carries the right to one vote in respect of each of the matters properly coming before the Meeting, except for the election of directors, for which cumulative voting is used (for additional details with respect to cumulative voting, please refer to the information set out below under the heading “Business to be Transacted at the Meeting – Election of Directors”).

P a g e | 7 The Board has fixed February 28, 2025, as the record date for determining Shareholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Meeting. Each Registered Shareholder as of the close of business on February 28, 2025, shall be entitled to vote the Shares in his, her or its name on that date, except to the extent that the person has transferred the ownership of any of his, her or its Shares after February 28, 2025, and the transferee of those Shares produces properly endorsed share certificates or otherwise establishes that he, she or it owned such Shares as of February 28, 2025, and demands, not later than ten (10) days before the Meeting, that his, her or its name be included in the list of Shareholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Meeting, in which event the transferee shall be entitled to vote such Shares at the Meeting. To the knowledge of the Bank, as of February 28, 2025, no person or company beneficially owned, or exercised control or direction, directly or indirectly, over more than 10% of the Shares, other than GBH Inc., which owned 8,511,652 Shares, being approximately 26.17% of the issued and outstanding Shares. PART III – BUSINESS TO BE TRANSACTED AT THE MEETING 1 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The Consolidated Financial Statements of the Bank for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2024 (“Fiscal 2024”), and 2023 (“Fiscal 2023”), have been mailed to Shareholders with this Management Proxy Circular. Shareholders and proxyholders will have an opportunity to review and discuss the Bank’s Fiscal 2024 results with management at the Meeting. 2 APPOINTMENT OF AUDITORS The directors propose Ernst & Young LLP for re-appointment as auditors of the Bank to hold office until the close of the Bank’s next annual meeting of Shareholders. This proposal is supported by the annual review of the external auditor that was carried out in January 2024 and January 2025 by the Board’s Audit Committee (the “Audit Committee”) in keeping with our commitment to follow best practices in corporate governance. Ernst & Young LLP were first appointed as auditors of the Bank at the Annual and Special Meeting of Shareholders held on April 19, 2023. In the past, the Board has fixed the remuneration of the auditors of the Bank. Such remuneration has been based upon the complexity of the matters dealt with and time spent in providing services to the Bank. The Board is satisfied that the remuneration negotiated in the past with the auditors of the Bank has been reasonable under the circumstances and reflective of the audit quality and performance of the auditors. Information concerning the audit- related fees paid to Ernst & Young LLP during Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023 is provided on page 22 of the Bank’s Annual Information Form for Fiscal 2024, which is available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and EDGAR at www.sec.gov/edgar. It is recommended that Shareholders vote FOR the resolutions relating to the appointment of auditors and the authorization of the directors to fix the remuneration of the auditors. In the absence of contrary instructions, the persons named in the enclosed form of proxy or voting instruction form intend to vote FOR the appointment of the auditors and the authorization of the directors to fix the remuneration of the auditors. 3 ELECTION OF DIRECTORS Shareholders of the Bank will be asked to elect ten (10) nominees as directors of the Bank by cumulative voting to hold office until the close of the next annual general meeting of the Bank or until his or her successor is duly elected, unless his or her office is earlier vacated and a replacement director is appointed in accordance with the by-laws of the Bank. As required under the Bank Act (Canada), where directors are to be elected by cumulative voting, each Shareholder entitled to vote at an election of directors has the right to cast a number of votes equal to the number of votes attached to the Shares held by the Shareholder multiplied by the number of directors to be elected, and the

P a g e | 8 Shareholder may cast all such votes in favour of one candidate or distribute them among the candidates in any manner. If a Shareholder has voted for more than one candidate without specifying the distribution of the votes among the candidates, the Shareholder is deemed to have distributed the votes equally among the candidates for whom the Shareholder voted. If the number of candidates nominated for director exceeds the number of positions to be filled, the candidates who receive the least number of votes will be eliminated until the number of candidates remaining equals the number of positions to be filled. All, except one, of the individuals nominated by the Conduct Review, Governance & HR Committee (the “HR Committee”) for election to the Board at the Meeting are currently directors of the Bank. All, except one, of the directors were elected to the Board at the Bank’s annual meeting of Shareholders on April 17, 2024, for a term expiring at the close of the Meeting. Unless a Shareholder giving a proxy or voting instructions specifies that their Shares be withheld from voting on the election of all or any of the director nominees, or specifies how the Shareholder wishes to distribute the votes represented by his, her or its proxy or voting instructions among the nominees, the persons named in the enclosed form of proxy or voting instruction form intend to cast the votes represented by such proxy FOR the election of the nominees named herein (or any replacements thereof) and to distribute votes among such nominees in such manner as in their discretion is most likely to cause such nominees to be duly elected as the directors of the Bank at the Meeting. The Board recommends that Shareholders vote FOR the following director nominees. The Honourable Frank J. C. Newbould, K.C. David A. Bratton Susan T. McGovern David R. Taylor Peter M. Irwin Paul G.

(5) Current and proposed member of the HR Committee. (6) Current and proposed member of the Audit Committee. Majority Voting The Bank has a majority voting policy for the election of directors, which is applicable at any meeting of Shareholders where an uncontested election of directors is held. A director nominee in an uncontested election who receives more “withheld” votes than votes in his or her favour is expected to promptly tender his or her resignation to the Chair of the Board for consideration; however, such resignation is not effective until it is accepted by the Board. The Board will submit the nominee’s resignation to the HR Committee for consideration. The HR Committee will then recommend to the Board whether or not to accept the resignation. A director who tenders his or her resignation will not participate in any meetings of the Board or the HR Committee to consider whether the resignation shall be accepted. Within 90 days of receiving the final voting results in respect of the uncontested election, the Board will issue a press release announcing whether it has accepted the director nominee’s resignation or explaining its reasons for not accepting the resignation; absent extenuating circumstances, the Board expects that such resignations will be accepted. PART IV – STATEMENT OF EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION COMPENSATION DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS The following Compensation Discussion & Analysis provides a description of the strategy, processes and decisions made pertaining to the oversight, design and payout of the Bank’s compensation for its Named Executive Officers (“NEOs”) for Fiscal 2024. The NEOs as of October 31, 2024, were David Taylor, President & Chief Executive Officer (“President & CEO”); John Asma, Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) and each of the next three most highly compensated executive officers of the Bank being Shawn Clarke, Chief Operating Officer (“COO”), Michael Dixon, Senior Vice President, Point-of-Sale Financing and Nick Kristo, Chief Credit Officer. Compensation Governance The Board has delegated the responsibility for oversight of the Bank’s compensation program to the HR Committee, which reports regularly to the Board. The HR Committee is comprised of independent directors within the meaning of National Instrument 58-101 – Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices (“NI 58-101”). They are currently David A. Bratton (Chair), Susan T. McGovern and Gabrielle Bochynek. No member of the HR Committee has ever been an officer or employee of the Bank or any of its affiliates, and no member is an active chief executive officer with a publicly traded company. Mr. Bratton has been a member of the Board since 1993. Mr. Bratton has over 30 years of human resource management experience. He holds Master of Business Administration, Fellow Certified Management Consultant, and Certified Human Resources Leader designations. Mr. Bratton was an affiliate professor at the Rotman School of Business for 18 years. Ms. McGovern has been a member of the Board since 2011. She has more than 30 years of experience in the federal government, the Ontario government, the broader public sector, private corporations and the not-for-profit sector. Currently, she is an Executive Advisor in the Ontario Ministry of Finance. As a senior leader, her strengths include corporate development and governance, human resource management, strategic communications, stakeholder engagement, public policy development, philanthropic advancement and political acuity.

P a g e | 12 Ms. Bochynek has been a member of the Board since 2019. She holds a Bachelor of Arts degree and Certified Human Resources Leader designation and has over 30 years of human resources experience. Her background includes expertise in executive compensation, employee and labor relations, change management and organizational restructuring. She is Principal, Human Resources & Labor Relations, with the Osbourne Group and formerly Chief Human Resources Officer at North York General Hospital. The Board believes that the members of the HR Committee have the qualifications and experience in human resources governance matters and, in particular, executive compensation to fulfill their responsibilities. The HR Committee held 7 meetings during Fiscal 2024. The President & CEO and the Chief Human Resources Officer attend HR Committee meetings but do not have the right to vote. The HR Committee regularly holds in-camera sessions without management present. The HR Committee may also engage the services of an independent compensation consultant at their discretion. Currently, the HR Committee’s responsibilities with respect to human resources matters include the following: (a) Annually review the Bank’s overall compensation plan and the policies pertaining thereto to ensure that they are consistent with the Bank’s goals of attracting and retaining the best people, aligning executive interests with those of the Bank, and paying for performance. Survey information is obtained from the Chief Human Resources Officer, as well as from compensation consulting companies and other external independent sources, to ensure that compensation paid to executives is appropriate and competitive. (b) Consider the implications of risks associated with the Bank’s compensation policies and practices. (c) Approve, at the beginning of each fiscal year, performance measurements for calculating the annual incentive award of the President & CEO. (d) Review the compensation of the President & CEO, and recommend same to the Board for approval. (e) Report to the full Board on a timely basis as to the actual calculations of total compensation of the President & CEO. (f) Review staff compensation, including ranges and benefit programs. (g) Review staff incentive awards. (h) Recommend to the Board for approval the annual incentive award pool for executives. (i) Review a report from the Chief Internal Auditor, when available, on the alignment of the Bank’s compensation policies with the Financial Stability Board’s Principles for Sound Compensation Practices. With regard to the HR Committee’s consideration of the implications of risks associated with the Bank’s compensation policies and practices and compliance with Financial Stability Board Principles for Sound Compensation Practices, the Board, through the HR Committee, monitors and manages any such risks by taking actions that include the following: (a) Actively overseeing the Bank’s compensation systems, and monitoring and reviewing compensation policies and procedures to ensure they are operating as intended. (b) Recommending the amount of the annual incentive award pool for executives to the Board for approval. (c) Reviewing decisions made by the President & CEO concerning executive compensation and providing input. (d) Establishing appropriate performance measures for the President & CEO at the beginning of the fiscal year and assessing overall performance and recommending compensation decisions to the Board at the end of the fiscal year. (e) Ensuring that the performance measures assigned to the President & CEO, which are derived from the Bank’s Business Plan, are within the Bank’s tolerance for risk. (f) Ensuring the compensation decisions for employees in control functions (finance, risk, compliance, and internal audit) are based on enterprise and individual performance, and are not based on the performance of the specific businesses supported by the control function.

No other fees were paid to Korn Ferry during the years ended October 31, 2024 and October 31, 2023. Executive Compensation Philosophy The key components of the Bank’s compensation plan for NEOs are base salary, short-term (annual) incentive awards, and long-term incentives. NEOs are also entitled to certain employee benefits, including a pension supplement payment. The Bank’s compensation plan is designed to attract and retain highly qualified individuals, while creating an incentive to align efforts with Shareholder interests and motivate NEOs to deliver company performance that will create real long-term shareholder value. The Bank’s overall objective is to set total compensation at approximately the seventy-fifth percentile of the total compensation paid for comparable positions at comparable companies, being Home Capital Group Inc., Equitable Group Inc., Street Capital Bank and Canadian Western Bank (the “Comparable Companies”). The Bank considers compensation information of these entities as a frame of reference in determining NEO compensation due to management’s belief that the Comparable Companies are the Canadian financial institutions that are similar to the Bank. In particular, the Comparable Companies represent mid-sized, federally regulated financial institutions that may raise deposits solely or partly through a brokerage network. However, since the Comparable Companies vary from the Bank in terms of business model, asset size, and organization structure, compensation data from the Comparable Companies is used as a frame of reference only, and not a definitive target for NEO compensation. Other elements that are considered when determining total compensation for NEOs are set forth below. More detail on each component of the Bank’s compensation plan and its purpose within total compensation is described in the table under the heading “Statement of Executive Compensation – Compensation Discussion and Analysis – Type of Compensation” below, and in subsequent sections of this Management Proxy Circular. Decision Making Process The Board, through the HR Committee, actively oversees the Bank’s overall compensation plan and monitors and reviews the Bank’s compensation practices to ensure they operate as intended.

P a g e | 14 The Chief Human Resources Officer provides the HR Committee with market data, as required, including information concerning compensation paid at the Comparable Companies, to assist the HR Committee in its deliberations. In conjunction with the President & CEO, the HR Committee establishes performance measurements for the President & CEO at the beginning of the fiscal year, and the Board monitors progress against the performance measures throughout the year. At the end of the year, the HR Committee receives a report from the Chair of the Board on the results of the President & CEO’s performance appraisal; the HR Committee, in turn, reports on such results to the Board. The HR Committee recommends to the Board for approval any changes to salary and incentive awards payable to the President & CEO. The President & CEO has final approval for all compensation decisions concerning NEOs and other staff, other than himself and other than the total amount of the annual incentive award pool for executives, which is reviewed and recommended by the HR Committee to the Board for approval. The HR Committee reviews the balance of the compensation decisions after the fact and provides comment and advice for consideration regarding future compensation decisions.

The actual base salary paid is determined with consideration to past and current performance, internal equity, salaries paid at the Comparable Companies, salary surveys including Mercer’s Executive, Management and Professional Survey, and the potential impact of the position on the Bank’s performance. Base salaries for executives who report directly to the President & CEO are approved by the President & CEO, upon recommendation of the Chief Human Resources Officer and are reviewed after the fact by the HR Committee. Short-Term (Annual) Incentive Awards NEOs and other executives are eligible to participate in the Bank’s short-term incentive award program. The key goals of the short-term incentive award program are to align executive efforts to achieve the objectives set out in the Bank’s Business Plan, to encourage the effective management of risk, to pay for performance, and to encourage teamwork.

P a g e | 15 Factors considered in determining whether and in what amount short-term incentive awards are paid to the NEOs and certain other executives of the Bank (other than the President & CEO) include: (i) individual results against the predetermined performance objectives; (ii) the executive’s business unit results; and (iii) the Bank’s overall results. For NEOs and executives, other than the President & CEO, individual performance objectives that reflect the executive’s key responsibility areas are set at the beginning of each fiscal year and are intended to align executive efforts with the business, financial, risk management and strategic objectives of the Bank as set out in its Business Plan. Periodically throughout the year, the performance objectives are re-visited to monitor results to date, and to determine if the stated objectives require modification based on factors that may include a change in job responsibilities or a change in business priorities. At the end of each fiscal year, the actual results achieved by the executive, their business unit and the Bank are reviewed and any extenuating circumstances are considered. The HR Committee reviews and recommends to the Board for approval the annual short-term incentive award pool for the NEOs and other executives, excluding the President & CEO. The final decision on allocating short-term incentive award payments from the approved award pool among the NEOs and other executives (other than the President & CEO) is made by the President & CEO. The HR Committee reviews the President & CEO’s decisions after the fact. With respect to the President & CEO, performance measurements derived from the Board approved Business Plan for his short-term incentive award are approved by the HR Committee at the beginning of each fiscal year. At the end of the fiscal year, a determination is made by the Board on the advice of the HR Committee as to the amount of any short-term incentive award payable to the President & CEO in respect of such fiscal year. In determining the amount of the short-term incentive award (if any), the Board has discretion to consider subjective measures, including the implementation of the Bank’s philosophy with respect to risk, enterprise risk management and corporate reputation, and the Board may also consider any extraordinary circumstances. For Fiscal 2024, the President & CEO’s key performance measures were established in three main categories. Under the performance objectives, financial metrics related to shareholder value have been attributed a 70% weighting in the assessment, financial metrics related to operational results have been attributed a 20% weighting, and the remaining 10% was attributed to individual performance in key management areas that have a significant impact on the Bank’s results, including (i) the development/execution of strategic vision, (ii) communication, and (iii) leadership development. The financial metrics used to determine the President & CEO’s performance as it relates to shareholder value and operational results are key business targets derivable directly from the Bank’s Fiscal 2024 Business Plan and are as outlined in the following charts: Shareholder Value Performance Measures Notes: (1) This is a non-GAAP financial measure. Return on average common equity for the Bank is defined as annualized net income of the Bank less amounts relating to preferred share dividends, divided by average common shareholders’ equity (which is average shareholders’ equity less

P a g e | 16 amounts relating to preferred shares recorded in equity). For further details regarding non-GAAP financial measures and a reconciliation to their most comparable GAAP measure, please see the Bank’s Management’s Discussion & Analysis for Fiscal 2024, available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and EDGAR at www.sec.gov/edgar. (2) Net interest margin or spread is defined as net interest income as a percentage of average total assets. For further details regarding non- GAAP financial measures and a reconciliation to their most comparable GAAP measure, please see the Bank’s Management’s Discussion & Analysis for Fiscal 2024, available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and EDGAR at www.sec.gov/edgar Operational Results Performance Measures Note: (1) The efficiency ratio is calculated as non-interest expenses, excluding restructuring charges, as a percentage of total revenue. For further details regarding non-GAAP financial measures and a reconciliation to their most comparable GAAP measure, please see the Bank’s Management’s Discussion & Analysis for Fiscal 2024, available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and EDGAR at www.sec.gov/edgar The extent to which each performance category target is met multiplied by its weighting determines the number of points earned. The total number of points earned is then multiplied by 85% of the President & CEO’s base salary to arrive at the short-term incentive award amount payable to the President & CEO (subject to any adjustments that the Board considers appropriate after considering applicable subjective measures). The target annual incentive award for the President & CEO is 85% of base salary with a maximum cap of 135% of base salary. Further details respecting the performance metrics considered in determining the payments made to NEOs under the short-term incentive award program in respect of Fiscal 2024 and the payments made to NEOs thereunder in respect of each of the last three fiscal years of the Bank can be found below under the headings “Statement of Executive Compensation – Compensation Discussion and Analysis – Fiscal 2024 Incentive Awards Paid” and “Statement of Executive Compensation – Summary Compensation Table”, respectively. Long-Term Incentive Awards Under the Bank’s long-term incentive award program, NEOs (excluding the President & CEO) are eligible to participate in the Bank’s Executive Share Award Program (the “ESAP”), and the President & CEO participates in Chief Executive Officer Share Purchase Program (“CEOSPP”). Each of these programs is discussed in greater detail below. Employee Share Purchase Program The Bank maintains the Employee Share Purchase Program (the “ESPP”), in which all employees of the Bank (excluding employees at the position of vice president and above) are eligible to participate. The ESPP encourages ownership of the Bank’s securities and aligns the interests of eligible employees, more closely with those of

P a g e | 17 Shareholders. Pursuant to the ESPP, employees can purchase Shares on the open market with up to an aggregate amount of twenty percent (20%) of their base salary and are eligible for a fifty percent (50%) reimbursement for the cost of such Shares. All Shares purchased by employees under the ESPP are to be held for a minimum of one year from the date of purchase. Reimbursement amounts paid to employees under the ESPP are a taxable benefit. Executive Share Award Program The Bank’s employees at the vice president level and above (excluding the President & CEO) are eligible to participate in the ESAP. The objective of the ESAP is to encourage ownership of the Bank’s securities and to provide a long-term incentive that aligns the participant’s interests with those of Shareholders. At the end of each fiscal year, the President & CEO determines the number of Shares to be awarded to each participant as a long-term incentive. Such Share award will be determined by considering the results the Bank achieved relative to its long-term targets in the previous fiscal year and the results the participant obtained relative to his or her long-term incentive objectives. The participant will purchase a number of Shares equal to his or her Shares award on the open market and will be fully reimbursed for the cost of such Shares. All Shares purchased under the ESAP are to be held for a minimum of five years from the date of purchase, unless otherwise agreed in writing. Additionally, the Shares may be sold in the event of the participant’s death, retirement, resignation or termination. Reimbursement amounts paid to participants under the ESAP are a taxable benefit. Stock Option Incentive Plan The Corporation has a common share Stock Option Incentive Plan (“Stock Option Plan”), the purpose of which is to align the interests of the participants with the longer-term interests of the Shareholders. All NEOs are entitled to participate in the Stock Option Plan. The Stock Option Plan provides a compensation opportunity that encourages share ownership. The Bank’s officers, employees and consultants are eligible to participate. As of February 28, 2025, there are 804,494 stock options outstanding pursuant to the Stock Option Plan. Factors considered prior to granting additional stock options are an individual’s past and current performance, level of responsibility, internal equity, stock options previously granted, the cost of the stock options, stock options granted by Comparable Companies, and compensation survey information. There were no stock options in the Bank granted in Fiscal 2024. Chief Executive Officer Share Purchase Program The objective of the CEOSPP is to encourage ownership of the Bank’s securities, and to provide a long-term incentive that aligns the President & CEO’s interests with those of Shareholders. Under the CEO Compensation Policy and Procedures, performance measurements for the long-term incentive award are approved by the HR Committee at the beginning of each fiscal year and each performance measure is assigned a weighting to reflect its relative importance to the Bank’s long-term success. At the end of each fiscal year, the Board on the advice of the HR Committee will determine the number of Shares to be awarded to the President & CEO as a long-term incentive. Such award will be determined by considering the results the Bank achieved relative to the performance measurements in respect of such fiscal year. In making this determination, the Board has discretion to adjust the long-term incentive award payable to the President & CEO on the basis of subjective measures, including the implementation of the Bank’s philosophy with respect to risk, enterprise risk management and corporate reputation, and the Board may also take into account any extraordinary circumstances.

P a g e | 18 The performance measures and relative weighting in respect of Fiscal 2024 are as outlined in the following chart: Long-Term Incentive Award Performance Measures The extent to which each performance category target has been met multiplied by its weighting determines the number of points earned. The total number of points earned is divided by 100 and multiplied by 30,000 to determine the number of Shares awarded to the President & CEO (subject to any adjustments that the Board considers appropriate after considering applicable subjective measures). The President & CEO will purchase such number of Shares awarded to him under the CEOSPP on the open market and will be reimbursed for the full cost of such Shares. All Shares purchased under the CEOSPP are to be held for a minimum of five years from the date of purchase, unless otherwise agreed in writing. Additionally, such Shares may be sold in the event of death, retirement, resignation or termination (including termination as a result of a change of control). Reimbursement amounts paid to the President & CEO under the CEOSPP are a taxable benefit. See “Statement of Executive Compensation – Summary Compensation Table” below for additional information concerning the long-term incentive awards paid to the NEOs in respect of each of the last three fiscal years of the Bank. Other – Pension Supplement Although the Bank does not have a formal pension plan, all employees of the Bank, including NEOs, are entitled to an annual cash payment in lieu of pension contributions. A pension supplement is considered a normal component of a competitive executive compensation arrangement. The pension supplement payment calculation for NEOs is based on a variety of factors, which may include age, life expectancy, current interest rates and inflation rates. The pension supplement amounts paid to each NEO in the previous fiscal year is described in the notes to the table found under “Statement of Executive Compensation – Summary Compensation Table” below. Incentive Award Deferral and Compensation Recoupment Policy All or a portion of any incentive-based compensation payable to the Bank’s executive officers may be deferred in accordance with the Bank’s Compensation Recoupment Policy. Changes to NEO Compensation There were no significant changes to executive compensation in Fiscal 2024.

P a g e | 19 Purchase of Financial Instruments to Offset a Decrease in the Market Value of Equity Securities The Bank’s NEOs and directors are not permitted to purchase financial instruments, including, for greater certainty, prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars, or units of exchange funds that are designed to hedge or offset a decrease in market value of equity securities of the Bank granted as compensation or held, directly or indirectly, by the NEO or director. PERFORMANCE GRAPH The following chart compares the cumulative Bank total shareholder return (“TSR”) on $100 invested in shares of VersaBank on November 1, 2018, with the equivalent cumulative value invested in the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX“) composite index for the same period. Summary: 31-Oct-19 31-Oct-20 31-Oct-21 31-Oct-22 31-Oct-23 31-Oct-24 VB(1) $100.00 $100.30 $224.96 $141.40 $157.69 $318.57 S&P/TSX Composite Index $100.00 $94.52 $127.63 $117.85 $114.50 $146.55 Note: (1) The TSR return in respect of the Bank contemplates an investment in shares of VersaBank on November 1, 2018, and the exchange of such shares for Shares in connection with the Amalgamation. During the period November 1, 2018, to October 31, 2024, the Bank’s trend in total executive compensation, defined as base salary and incentive awards paid, increased to reflect the success of initiatives such as the Point-of-Sale Financing program, the Insolvency Trustee Integrated Banking (“TIB”) Services initiative and the overall Bank’s financial results. While the Bank believes TSR has an influence on total executive compensation, it does not expect a direct correlation will always exist between TSR and total executive compensation since other factors are considered when making executive compensation decisions. Those factors include changes to NEO responsibilities and corresponding increases in compensation, adjustments to compensation necessary to reflect changes in market conditions, and compensation paid to reward NEOs for results that may not be reflected immediately in TSR. $0 $50 $100 $150 $200 $250 $300 $350 31-Oct-19 31-Oct-20 31-Oct-21 31-Oct-22 31-Oct-23 31-Oct-24 Total Return on $100 Investment VB S&P/TSX Composite Index

Fiscal 2024 Incentive Awards Paid The following summarizes key rationale for the incentive award paid to each NEO for Fiscal 2024: David Taylor, President & CEO Short-Term Incentive Award In Fiscal 2024, David Taylor achieved a key performance target with the successful approvals for (by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Federal Reserve) and completion of the acquisition of Stearns Bank Holdingford National Association (“Stearns Bank Holdingford”), including its US Bank license. As a result, he received a total Fiscal 2024 short-term incentive award consisting of the award voluntarily foregone in Fiscal 2023 due to the US bank license having not yet been received, as well as an award for meeting or exceeding key performance targets in Fiscal 2024. David Taylor also received a short-term incentive award commensurate with the Bank’s achievements related to its key performance metrics as set out in the Bank’s Fiscal 2024 Business Plan, which included the Canadian Point-

P a g e | 21 of-Sale Financing expanding in line with budget and the Canadian Real Estate Financing to shareholder value and the impacts on profitability. Long-Term Incentive Award In Fiscal 2024, David Taylor achieved or substantially achieved the majority of the targets related to his long-term incentive award, however he has decided not to receive this award as the Bank’s early financial results in F2025 are lower than expected. The Board may reconsider the award based on Bank achievements later in the fiscal year. Shawn Clarke, Chief Operating Officer Mr. Clarke originally joined VersaBank in 2005 and has held progressively senior positions in the areas of corporate development, technology, risk, finance and operations over the course of his tenure with the Bank. In 2023 Mr. Clarke was appointed Chief Operating Officer and was charged with, amongst other initiatives overseeing the completion of the Bank’s acquisition of the OCC Chartered bank, Stearns Bank Holdingford. Over the course of Fiscal 2024 Mr. Clarke made a strong contribution to advancing the Bank’s growth strategy in the United States through leading the Bank’s continued efforts related to supporting the ongoing regulatory approval process associated with the acquisition of Stearns Bank Holdingford which included organizing and driving the development and submission of various analysis and reports as well as numerous comprehensive responses to US and Canadian banking regulatory agency queries and formal requests related to all aspects of VersaBank’s existing and planned business activities, corporate structure, capital adequacy and structure, operating and management plans and initiatives, historical and anticipated financial performance, and reporting processes and infrastructure. The results of this effort were key to VersaBank receiving the necessary regulatory approvals to acquire Stearns Bank Holdingford in June 2024. Moreover, Mr. Clarke organized and managed the acquisition closing process as well as led the development and implementation of a number of critical services agreements and arrangements, that combined not only enabled the closing of the purchase transaction on August 30, 2024, but also the continuance of banking operations as VersaBank USA National Association (“VersaBank USA”) thereafter. Further, Mr. Clarke oversaw and led the US operational integration discovery and planning process across the operating teams within VersaBank as well oversaw the implementation of the Bank’s comprehensive operational integration plan for the acquired US bank. In addition to the above, Mr. Clarke met or exceeded all performance objectives assigned to him in Fiscal 2024. John Asma, Chief Financial Officer In his role as Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Asma leads the Finance & Accounting Department and maintains oversight of the Deposit Services, Treasury and Financial Planning and Analysis functions. In Fiscal 2024, Mr. Asma continued to steer the Finance and Accounting Department towards excellence, playing a crucial role in driving financial strategy and ensuring operational efficiency across the organization. His leadership was pivotal in the successful acquisition of Stearns Bank Holdingford and its integration to VersaBank USA. Mr. Asma steered the Bank’s relationships with its brokers and interbank counterparties, both in Canada and the USA, and was instrumental in establishing new relationships and deepening existing ones. Under Mr. Asma’s guidance, the Bank completed various strategic initiatives around optimization of the Bank’s capital structure by redemption of preference shares and debentures. Michael Dixon, Senior Vice President, Point-of-Sale Financing In his role as Senior Vice President, Point-of-Sale Financing Mr. Dixon was responsible for the strategic management, oversight and overall performance of the Bank’s Point-of-Sale Financing activities, including the Bank’s Receivable

P a g e | 22 Purchase Program both in Canada and the US, which as at October 31, 2023, equated to 80% of the Bank’s total lending assets. Throughout Fiscal 2024, the Point-of-Sale Financing team successfully navigated an increasingly competitive and economically challenged marketplace, characterized by rising interest rates, inflation, and downturns across multiple industries. Despite these challenges, the Point-of-Sale Financing team increased its receivable asset volume over the previous year, leading to an overall asset growth of more than 16% in Fiscal 2024, despite a portfolio sale, all while maintaining nil delinquencies and losses throughout the year. Through Fiscal 2024, Point-of-Sale Financing added new vendor partners and Mr. Dixon led the successful restructuring of several existing partner programs including minimum volume agreements, all of which provide the opportunity for continued material organic growth within the Point-of-Sale Financing group. In addition, Mr. Dixon provided much assistance in gaining the required approvals to acquire Stearns Bank Holdingford, which occurred in August 2024 and which will greatly assist in obtaining the long-term objectives of the Bank. Nick Kristo, Chief Credit Officer In his role as Chief Credit Officer, Mr. Kristo is responsible for the credit risk management of the Bank’s lending portfolio. Over the course of Fiscal 2024, Mr. Kristo played a key role in the Bank’s asset growth in an increasingly challenging economic environment through efficient management of asset provisions and increased risk monitoring. Credit policy, risk monitoring and risk management frameworks continue to evolve to assist in the support of the growth of both the Commercial Banking and Point-of-Sale asset portfolios. VersaBank had achieved record loan levels during Fiscal 2024 while maintaining an asset portfolio that benefited with limited delinquency and credit losses. Mr. Kristo continues to promote the credit risk culture to staff and ensures that the Bank operates within the tolerances established within VersaBank’s credit risk appetite. TERMINATION AND CHANGE OF CONTROL BENEFITS The following table sets out the estimated amount of potential payments to the NEOs if their termination or change of control clauses or retirement clauses were triggered on October 31, 2024. Further detail regarding the termination clauses in each NEO’s employment agreement is set out under “Termination and Change of Control Benefits – Employment Contracts” below. Name Entitlement ($) Termination Change of control Retirement David Taylor(1) $4,355,633 $4,355,633 $1,000,000 Shawn Clarke(2) $745,503 nil nil John Asma (2) $112,729 nil nil Michael Dixon(2) $919,646 nil nil Nick Kristo(2) $932,250 nil nil Notes: (1) In the case of termination without cause or in the case of change of control, whereby the employment agreement will be deemed to be terminated, any outstanding unvested stock options shall also become exercisable at the date of termination. In addition, all stock options held by Mr. D. Taylor shall expire on the earlier of the expiry date and two years from such date of termination. Further, at the option of Mr. D. Taylor, any stock options are to be redeemed by the Bank at a price calculated as the difference between the stock option exercise price and the average price of the Shares for the four trading days prior to the date of termination and the termination date. (2) In the case of termination without cause.

PART VIII – INTEREST OF INFORMED PERSONS IN MATERIAL TRANSACTIONS To the knowledge of the Bank, no informed person (as defined in NI 51-102) of the Bank, no proposed director or executive officer of the Bank, nor any associate or affiliate of any informed person or any proposed director or executive officer of the Bank, has any interest, direct or indirect, in: (i) any transaction since the commencement of the Bank’s most recently completed financial year or in any proposed transaction which has materially affected or would materially affect the Bank or any of its subsidiaries; or (ii) by way of beneficial ownership of securities or otherwise, in any matter to be acted upon at the Meeting, other than the election of directors. PART IX – AUDIT COMMITTEE Audit Committee Information & Disclosure is provided on pages 21-22 and 25-30 of the Bank’s Annual Information Form for Fiscal 2024, which is available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and EDGAR at www.sec.gov/edgar.

P a g e | 30 PART X – CORPORATE GOVERNANCE Board of Directors A director is considered to be independent where the Board determines that the director has no direct or indirect material relationship to the Bank or its subsidiaries. “Material relationship” is defined in National Instrument 52-110 – Audit Committees as any relationship which could, in the view of the Board, be reasonably expected to interfere with the exercise of a director’s independent judgment. Annually, the Board, in consultation with the HR Committee, reviews a director’s relationship with the Bank in order to determine whether the director is or continues to be independent. Every member of the Board, with the exception of Mr. D. Taylor, is independent. Mr. D. Taylor is the President & CEO of the Bank, and, by virtue of his executive officer position, he has a material relationship to the Bank and is not independent. The proposed Chair of the Board, The Honourable Frank J.C. Newbould, is an independent director. The roles and responsibilities of the Chair are set out in the Mandate of the Chair of the Board (a copy of which can be found on the Bank’s website). The Chair is to exemplify the Board responsibility for the stewardship of the Bank. Among other duties, the Chair is to liaise with management of the Bank for the purpose of setting meetings of the Board and is to lead the meetings, and he is to ensure that the responsibilities of the Board and management, and the boundaries between them, are well understood and respected. The Chair is also to ensure the Board works as a cohesive team and is to provide the leadership to achieve this, and he is to encourage the active participation of all members. The Chair is to ensure that there are adequate resources available to support the work of the Board, and to ensure that procedures are adopted to ensure that the Board can conduct its work effectively and efficiently. Further, the Chair is to ensure that a process is in place by which the effectiveness of the Board, and the contribution of individual directors, is assessed, and to ensure that where functions are delegated to committees, the functions are carried out and results are reported to the Board. During Fiscal 2024, the Bank continued its practice of concluding each quarterly Board meeting with the independent directors of the Bank and each meeting of the committees by holding an in-camera session without the non- independent director or any other member of management present. In addition, in order for independent directors of the Board and each committee to have a forum in which to address issues or concerns, the Board and each committee has discretion to conclude all Board meetings and each meeting of the committees with an in-camera session without management and non-independent directors present. During the year, the Board held eight such in- camera meeting sessions, including the four regularly scheduled quarterly meetings. Each committee is required to hold in-camera sessions at quarterly meetings, as stipulated in their respective mandate. During the year each committee held five such in-camera meeting sessions, with the exception of the Audit Committee which held six in- camera meeting sessions. Position Descriptions and Mandates The Bank has Board approved Mandates for the Chair of the Board, and for the Chair of each Board committee and for each committee (copies of which can be found on the Bank’s website). The Board has also approved written job descriptions for various senior management roles, including the President & CEO. The job description of the President & CEO outlines his responsibilities, both generally and with respect to business planning and marketing, human resource policies and human resource management, enterprise risk management, legal and regulatory environment, and reporting to the Board. Also attached to the President & CEO’s job description is a detailed chart of authorities that outlines the approval process for various control and strategic requirements and proposals.

P a g e | 31 Level of Share Ownership Required Within five years of the later of May 1, 2017, or the date of appointment, directors are expected to accumulate Shares equivalent to two and one half times the Board retainer. The Chair is expected to accumulate Shares equivalent to two times his respective Board retainer within the same time frame. For purposes of determining compliance with this requirement, the director’s Shares are valued at the higher of cost or market value at October 31 annually. Ethical Business Conduct The Board has adopted a written Code of Conduct for the directors, officers, and employees of the Bank. The Code of Conduct is available with the Bank’s other publicly disclosed documents at www.sedarplus.ca and on the Bank’s website at www.versabank.com/codes-and-commitments. A copy may also be requested by contacting the Bank’s Corporate Secretary at the registered office of the Bank (Suite 2002, 140 Fullarton Street, London, Ontario N6A 5P2). The Board has delegated compliance oversight to the Chief Compliance Officer. On a quarterly basis, the Board receives a Compliance Report from the Chief Compliance Officer. Any matters of non-compliance form part of the report. The Board also receives an annual confirmation from the Chief Human Resources Officer with respect to compliance with the Code of Conduct during the preceding year. A primary element within the Code of Conduct is a section with respect to conflicts of interest. This section provides a definition of conflict of interest, including a cross-reference to the Bank’s Related Party Transactions Policy & Procedures. The conflict of interest section within the Code of Conduct provides details on the procedure to be followed if a conflict of interest situation arises, with the basic premise being the elevation of notice respecting the situation up to the Board. A list of conflict of interest matters is maintained by the legal department, and each director and officer of the Bank is required to annually attest that he or she is not a party to a material contract or proposed material contract, and is not a director or officer of any entity who is, and does not have a material interest in any person who is, a party to a material contract or proposed material contract with the Bank. The Bank has also adopted anonymous employee reporting and whistleblowing procedures which allows employees and officers of the Bank to anonymously and confidentially report, in writing, suspected unethical or improper conduct in violation of the Code of Conduct to the Chair of the HR Committee, as well as concerns regarding accounting or auditing matters to the Chair of the Audit Committee. Nomination of Directors Currently, the HR Committee, comprised entirely of independent directors, sets criteria for the selection of directors to ensure that the competencies, skills and personal qualities of the Board members allows the Board to discharge its duties and adds value to the Bank. In that regard, the HR Committee has developed a Directors Skill and Competencies Matrix (“Skills Matrix”). The Skills Matrix is reviewed and updated at least annually. The Skills Matrix below shows the principal areas of experience and expertise that each of the nominees brings to the Board.

P a g e | 32 From time to time it is both necessary and desirable for new director candidates to be identified and appointed to the Board. The HR Committee, with input from the President & CEO, evaluates the needs of the Board in accordance with the Skills Matrix and seeks out candidates with suitable backgrounds and strengths to fill those needs. The credentials of the identified candidate(s) are reviewed and discussed by the HR Committee, and are compared against the current needs of the Board. Any conflicts or impediments, as well as the time expected and required of directors, are addressed. The Chair of the HR Committee reports the HR Committee’s recommendation to the full Board. If thought advisable, the full Board approves the appointment of the identified candidate as a director, subject to a positive result on background checks as required by the Bank’s Assessment Policy for Responsible Persons. Director Term Limits and Other Mechanisms of Board Renewal While the Board recognizes the objective of term limits in encouraging director independence, preventing entrenchment and promoting diverse perspectives, the Board is of the view that the adoption of arbitrary term limits unreasonably discounts the value, skills and insights offered by retaining experienced board members. Accordingly, the Board believes the Bank and its Shareholders are better served through the employment of a measured approach to Board renewal, including a focus on the board competencies required to support the achievement of the Business Plan and the use of a rigorous annual Board and director performance assessment process.

P a g e | 33 Diversity on the Board and in Senior Management Positions Board The Bank’s Board recognizes the value of having a diverse roster of directors for effective decision making, and views diversity at the board level as an important element in strong corporate governance. Although diversity has always been a factor considered in the nomination of directors, the Board adopted the Board of Directors and Senior Management Diversity Policy (the “Diversity Policy”) with the goal of increasing the number of women who serve as directors on the Board. In accordance with the Diversity Policy, in reviewing Board composition the HR Committee is to consider all aspects of diversity, including skills, experience, gender, age, ethnicity and geographic background. The HR Committee also considers the balance of skills background, experience and knowledge on the Board and the diversity representation of the Board as part of the annual performance and effectiveness evaluations of the Board and committees. The Diversity Policy has set a target that at least 25% of independent directors on the Bank’s Board be women. As at October 31, 2024, the Board had two female directors, representing 22% of independent directors (22% in Fiscal 2023). The Board recognizes a number of directors may retire in the next few years which will present an opportunity to further increase the number of women on the board and exceed the policy objective. Senior Management The Bank and its Board recognize and embrace the benefits of having a diverse senior management team for effective decision making, and view diversity at the senior management level as an important element in the effective management of the Bank’s activities. A diverse senior management team will include and make use of differences in skills, experience, gender, age, ethnicity and geographic background. In this regard, the Bank considers the representation of women in senior management when identifying potential candidates. The Diversity Policy has set a target that at least 25% of the senior management team be women. As at October 31, 2024, 5 of 21 members of senior management (24%) were women (25% in Fiscal 2023). The Board, through recommendations by the HR Committee, annually reviews the Diversity Policy objectives and targets as set out in the Diversity Policy. Compensation As noted above, the Bank currently has an HR Committee comprised entirely of independent directors. As part of its Mandate, this Committee is to assess the level and nature of directors’ fees, as well as other compensation. In addition, the HR Committee annually reviews the compensation of the President & CEO and recommends the compensation to be set for the President & CEO to the Board for approval. The Committee annually approves, at the beginning of the fiscal year, performance measurements for calculating the annual incentive award of the President & CEO, and recommends to the Board any incentive award payable to the President & CEO. The HR Committee also recommends the executive incentive award pool to the Board for approval. In addition, part of the HR Committee’s mandate is to review officer and management appointments to ensure that the Bank has enough experienced and skilled personnel to carry out its business activities in a prudent manner, and to assess the suitability and integrity of officers in accordance with the Bank’s Assessment Policy for Responsible Persons. The HR Committee reviews employee, including officers’, compensation ranges and benefit programs and aggregate employee incentive awards. Additional information on this subject can be found above, including in the sections titled “Executive Compensation Philosophy” and “Decision Making Process”. The HR Committee is also responsible for an annual review of a number of human resources related Board approved policies, including the Compensation Plan for all employees. The Compensation Plan addresses the base salary component of the total compensation package and other significant benefits and programs.

P a g e | 34 Other Board Committees In addition to the Audit Committee and the HR Committee, the Bank also has a Risk Oversight Committee and an Innovation and Technology Committee. The Risk Oversight Committee is currently comprised of three independent directors: Richard Jankura (Chair), Robbert-Jan Brabander, and Peter Irwin. The Risk Oversight Committee is responsible for oversight of the Bank’s Enterprise Risk Management Framework and Risk Appetite Framework, and reviewing policies developed and implemented for identifying, evaluating, measuring and managing the significant risks to which the Bank is exposed, and ensuring that those policies remain appropriate and prudent. It is responsible for recommending and reviewing, at least annually, all policies governing management of credit risk, market risk, structural risk, and liquidity and funding management risk, to ensure that they remain prudent and appropriate and are being adhered to. The Innovation and Technology Committee is comprised of three independent directors: Robbert-Jan Brabander (Chair), Art Linton and Susan McGovern. The Innovation and Technology Committee is responsible for assisting the Board in operational risk management by monitoring the development and implementation of the Bank’s Operational Risk Management Framework to manage against operational risks to which the Bank is exposed. The Innovation and Technology Committee assists in ensuring that management has effective policies, processes and procedure to manage information technology risks. Assessments The Mandate of the HR Committee provides that the members of the Board are required to complete an annual confidential assessment whereby each director is asked to complete a Board and committee performance assessment survey. The Board utilizes the services of an independent consultant to conduct the board assessment process. The consultant utilizing an online survey tool, circulated the assessment materials and the assessments were returned directly to the consultant. The Board members were given the opportunity to have a telephone interview with the consultant to discuss any concerns. The consultant then compiled the information and prepared a report on the results of the assessments which was then discussed by the HR Committee and the full Board. The HR Committee follows up on recommendations that arise from the assessment process. In addition, and in accordance with the Mandate of the Chair of the Board, the Chair of the Board conducts an annual assessment of the performance of the President & CEO of the Bank, and the results of that assessment are reviewed by the full Board. Orientation and Continuing Education The Director Orientation and Professional Development Program is designed to enhance the directors’ knowledge of, and ability to execute their responsibilities to, the Bank. All new directors are assigned an existing board member as a mentor and are provided with a package of information, including information respecting Board and committee composition, management information, and other relevant policies and procedures. New Audit Committee members receive additional information pertinent to his or her role on that committee. In order to keep the directors up-to-date on operations and those matters that affect the business of the Bank, directors receive written material and presentations from management, and may receive presentations from outside experts, on various aspects of the Bank’s operations as well as on emerging issues. This process may be initiated at the request of the Board, a committee, an individual director, or management. In addition, each committee has the authority to engage independent counsel and other advisors as determined to be necessary to permit them to carry out their duties. Directors are encouraged to enroll in a relevant professional development program, and the expenses incurred are reimbursed to a fixed maximum amount. Where applicable, directors are required to keep their professional accreditations current.

P a g e | 36 SCHEDULE A – MANDATE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS BOARD APPROVED: June 6, 2023 Purpose The purpose or role of the Board has two fundamental elements: decision-making and oversight. The decision- making function is exercised with respect to the formulation with management of fundamental policies and strategic goals and through the approval of certain significant actions. The oversight function concerns the review of management decisions, the adequacy of systems and controls and the implementation of policies. The Board establishes formal delegations of authority, defining the limits of management’s power and authority and delegating to management certain powers to manage the business of the Bank. The delegations of authority conform to statutory limitations specifying responsibilities of the board that cannot be delegated to management. Any responsibilities not delegated to management remain with the Board and its committees. Organization of the Board of Directors The Board shall consist of ten (10) directors, a majority of whom must be resident Canadians at the time of their election or appointment. The Board shall be constituted by a majority of independent directors12. Every director, in exercising any of the powers of a director and any of the duties of a director, shall: (a) act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Bank; and (b) exercise the care, diligence and skill that a reasonably prudent person would exercise in comparable circumstances. Meetings of the Board of Directors In order for the Board to transact business at a meeting, a majority of directors must be present. The Board shall meet at least once each quarter and shall schedule a sufficient number of meetings (whether in person or by videoconference) to carry out its mandate. There shall be an in-camera session at each quarterly Board meeting with only independent directors present. The members of the Board of Directors are expected to attend all meetings of the Board and its committees in person, when at all possible. Attendance by video conference may be used to facilitate a director’s attendance. Directors are expected to devote the appropriate amount of time necessary to review meeting materials such that they are able to engage in informed discussion and make informed decisions. Reporting from Committees Certain functions of the Board may be delegated to committees of the Board. Such delegation will be confirmed by the Board approval of committee mandates. Unless waived by the Board, the Chair of each Board Committee shall provide a verbal summary report to the Board on material matters considered during a meeting of such committee at the next meeting of the Board. 1A Director is independent if he or she meets the independence criteria as set out in the Bank’s Director Independence Policy. 2 If the death, disability or resignation of a member has resulted in a vacancy of the Committee that the Board is required to fill, a Committee member appointed to fill such vacancy is exempt from the requirement for a period ending on the later of the next annual meeting and the date that is six months from the day the vacancy was created, so long as the Board has determined that a reliance on this exemption will not materially adversely affect the ability of the Committee to act independently and to satisfy its other requirements.

P a g e | 37 Resources and Authority The Board shall have unrestricted access to management of the Bank and, if determined necessary by the Board, to any employee of the Bank, its subsidiaries or affiliates. The Board shall have the authority to retain and terminate independent legal counsel, consultant or other advisors to assist it in fulfilling its responsibilities and to set and pay the compensation of these advisors without consulting or obtaining the approval of any officer of the Company. Duties and Responsibilities of the Board of Directors The members of the Board of Directors have responsibility for the stewardship of the Bank and are charged with the following duties: 1. General Duties (a) Approve the by-laws of the Bank. (b) Appoint a Chair of the Board who shall be an independent director, subject to exceptional circumstances.
