Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On December 20, 2021, Fulton Financial Corporation (“Fulton”) and Fiserv Solutions, LLC (“Fiserv”), executed an Amendment to Agreement (the “Amendment”) to the Master Agreement dated July 11, 2016 between Fulton and Fiserv (the “Master Agreement”). Under the Amendment, the general term of the Master Agreement was extended from December 31, 2023 to March 31, 2027. Under the Amendment, the Master Agreement remains subject to early termination of all, or a portion, of the Master Agreement by either Fulton or Fiserv. Except upon certain events of default by Fiserv or Fiserv’s bankruptcy or insolvency, termination of all or a portion of the Master Agreement by Fulton requires the payment of a termination fee by Fulton to Fiserv. Upon expiration of the renewal term, or any subsequent renewal term, the term of the Master Agreement will automatically renew as provided for in the Master Agreement, unless either Fulton or Fiserv provides timely notice of non-renewal.

The foregoing brief descriptions of the Amendment and the Master Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the terms and conditions of the Master Agreement previously filed as Exhibit 10.1 to Fulton’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, and the Amendment, which will be filed as an exhibit to Fulton’s Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2021.
