On April 28, 2026, the Board of Directors (the "Board") of Renasant Corporation ("Renasant") approved and adopted Amended and Restated Bylaws of Renasant Corporation (the "Bylaws"), which became effective immediately. The amendment and restatement made the following changes to the Bylaws:
Adjusted the provision governing the date of Renasant's annual meeting of shareholders to permit the Board to have the flexibility to set the date of the annual meeting on a date other than the fourth Tuesday of April;
Added express language confirming that the Board or the chair of a meeting of shareholders may adjourn such meeting to a later date, regardless of whether a quorum is present;
Revised the Bylaws to make clear that each Renasant director must satisfy the requirements of any applicable banking laws (in addition to any qualifications provided under Mississippi law);
Inserted text reflecting Mississippi law permitting directors to participate in Board meetings by means of remote communications equipment;
Amended the advance notice bylaw to (i) make explicit that a shareholder is required to comply with applicable banking law as a condition to submitting notice of any director nominations or other business pursuant to the Bylaws and (ii) eliminate the provision requiring the window for timely notice of director nominations to re-open if additional board seats are added within 100 days of the anniversary of the prior year's annual meeting; and
Other clarifying, ministerial and conforming changes.
The foregoing description of the Bylaws is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Bylaws, a copy of which is included as Exhibit 3(ii) to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.
