Federal Reserve Regulation MM, 12 C.F.R. Part 239, of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”) require that the MHC annually solicit the vote of its members to approve the proposed dividend waivers by the MHC every 12 months. The MHC previously received the approval of its members at a July 11, 2023 meeting to waive the MHC’s right to receive quarterly dividends declared by the Company during the 12-month period ending July 11, 2024.

"When my parents started Third Federal in 1938, they did so with the mission of helping people achieve the American Dream of homeownership and financial security, and to support the communities we serve," said Chairman and CEO Marc A. Stefanski. "For more than 85 years, we have been unwavering in that mission – determined to help our customers succeed, and to continue to keep Third Federal strong, stable, and safe. We appreciate the overwhelming support from our members since 2014, and we are again asking them to vote FOR the dividend waiver, since we believe waiving the dividend is in the best interest of our customers, our shareholders, and the company.”

There can be no assurance that the members will approve the dividend waivers or that the Federal Reserve will not object to the waivers even if it is approved by members at the special meeting. A failure to obtain the waiver will likely result in a reduction in the dividend expected to be paid to public stockholders.
