Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

The annual meeting of shareholders of FB Financial Corporation (the “Company”) was held on May 20, 2021. At the annual meeting, the Company’s shareholders elected 14 directors to hold office for one year and until their successors are duly elected and qualified: Jimmy Allen, William F. Andrews, James W. Ayers, J. Jonathan Ayers, William F. Carpenter III, Agenia Clark, James W. Cross IV, James L. Exum, Christopher T. Holmes, Orrin H. Ingram, Raja J. Jubran, Stuart McWhorter, Emily J. Reynolds, and Melody J. Sullivan. In addition, at the annual meeting, the shareholders ratified the appointment of Crowe LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021. The proposal to amend the Company’s charter to eliminate the supermajority voting requirements failed to receive the required approval of the holders of 80% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock. The final voting results are set forth below.
