Human Capital Management Update A letter from Sheri Bronstein One of the hallmarks of Bank of America — and what I believe truly sets us apart — is our culture of caring, compassion and support for one another. This was apparent once again in 2022 as we continued to focus on health and safety and the changing face of wellness. We expanded our programs to support skills and career development, while also welcoming tens of thousands of new teammates to our company. And, we continued to support an inclusive environment where our teammates can bring their whole selves to work. With the world gradually moving from pandemic to endemic, health and safety was again a major priority. Throughout the year, we continued to offer onsite vaccination and booster clinics for both the coronavirus and flu. We also encouraged teammates to invest in their health by getting a coronavirus vaccine or booster and flu vaccine. In return, we donated $50 to their local food bank, along with a company match. In total, we provided nearly $19 million across 145 local food banks in recognition of our employees who took care of their health. _ | BANK OF AMERICA 2022

“With a great appreciation for the importance of mental health and the toll the pandemic took on many, we expanded our emotional wellness resources to provide more opportunities and resources for employees to access help for themselves and their family members.” Sheri Bronstein Chief Human Resources Officer We also took steps to Offer medical care that continues to be accessible for our teammates. We have held medical plan premiums flat for the 10th consecutive year for employees earning less than $50,000 a year. With a great appreciation of the importance of mental health and the toll the pandemic took on many, we expanded our emotional wellness resources to provide more ways for employees to access help for themselves and family members. We doubled the number of free in-person consultations through our Employee Assistance Program (from six to 12) on top of unlimited phone consultations. We continued to offer virtual behavioral health consultations through our telehealth provider in the U.S. Additionally, we announced a new global sabbatical program to start in 2023 that recognizes employees who have built their career with us, offering 4–6 weeks of paid time off starting at 15 years of service to recharge and refocus. In a year with one of the most challenging labor markets in recent history, we showed Bank of America is a company where you can grow and thrive throughout your career. We expanded The Academy at Bank of America to provide world-class onboarding and skill development. And, we welcomed 39,000 new teammates and helped 30,000 existing employees stay with the company and move to new roles. We continue to be a leader in establishing a minimum rate of pay for U.S. hourly employees, and, in 2022, we moved to $22 per hour as part of our commitment to reach $25 by 2025. One of the highlights of 2022 was that we were able to do so much together in person again. Across the world, our teammates celebrated the ability to reconnect and collaborate. One way we supported this was by providing free lunch to all teammates across the globe in September, October and November. Teammates shared hundreds of photos of their lunch gatherings, as well as other occasions and celebrations throughout the year. The investments we’ve made in our teammates has positioned us to continue building on our foundation. We will continue to use this report as a way to illustrate and measure our efforts in being a great place for our teammates to work. BANK OF AMERICA 2022 | _

recoGnizinG & rewardinG performance Recognizing & rewarding teammate performance Our pay-for-performance compensation approach strives to recognize and reward performance with competitive and fair pay for the work done, at all levels of our company. We have long been a leader in establishing a minimum rate of U.S. pay. Making progress toward increasing our minimum hourly wage for U.S. employees to $25 by 2025, we increased our minimum hourly pay to $22 in June 2022. Based on our 2022 performance, we once again provided our teammates Sharing Success compensation awards delivered in 2023. This is the sixth time this award has been given since 2017, growing to a more than $4 billion investment in our teammates. Approximately 96% of our employees have received or will receive an award this year. Most awards are in the form of Bank of America common stock that vest over four years, providing the opportunity to further share in our company’s long-term success. These awards are in addition to our standard annual compensation and bonus awards. We also maintain robust policies and practices that help reinforce equal pay for equal work, including reviews with oversight from our Board and senior leaders. For over 16 years, we have conducted rigorous processes and analyses with outside experts to examine individual employee pay before year-end compensation decisions are finalized, and we adjust compensation where appropriate. In 2022, results of this equal pay for equal work review showed that compensation received by women was on average more than 99% of that received by men, and that compensation received by people of color in the U.S. was on average more than 99% of that received by non-people of color employees.

talent & development Recruiting and developing talented teammates A key aspect of Responsible Growth is attracting and retaining exceptional talent from around the world. This starts with how we recruit new teammates and extends to the many ways we support their professional development and career growth once they’re here. That’s why we provide a variety of resources to help teammates grow in their current roles and build new skills. Attracting exceptional talent Building a strong pipeline of talent means finding candidates who are committed to our purpose and have a passion for serving our clients and communities. This spans programs from entry-level hiring through more senior-level recruiting. We partner with more than 450 universities across the globe to provide entry-level opportunities through our campus program. To help our talent pipeline reflect the diversity of the communities we serve and support local economic vitality, we have developed partnerships with nearly 30 Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs) and Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), as well as 30 community colleges. We also partner with many nonprofit organizations to create pathways to employment — including Road to Hire, Unidos, Urban Alliance and Year Up. In 2022, we believe we continued to drive progress in the strength and diversity of our employees: ENTRY-LEVEL PROGRAMS We expanded our outreach and onboarded 1,800 full-time campus hires, with 44% women and 59% people of color. EDUCATION AND TRAINING We contributed $9.6 million in 2022 to 50 national workforce training partners and nearly $31 million toward programs focused on increasing diverse talent in high-growth areas. MILITARY HIRING We hired more than 5,100 U.S. teammates with a military background. PATHWAYS We are making progress on our commitment to hire an additional 10,000 low- and moderate-income (LMI) hires by 2025, bringing the total to 20,000 LMI hires. We surpassed our initial goal of 10,000 hires three years early. Human capital management update _ 7 BANK OF AMERICA 2022

Developing our workforce through The Academy at Bank of America Retaining talent is core to how our company drives Responsible Growth, including our commitment to being a great place to work. That’s why we’re investing in teammates’ career growth and success through The Academy at Bank of America, our award-winning onboarding, education and professional development organization. We started The Academy in 2017 to support the learning and development needs of our consumer banking business. Over time, we’ve expanded our investment in The Academy, which is now a core function of our Global Human Resources organization, to offer programs to all lines of business. Employees can develop their skills for their current role or a role they want to pursue in the future. The Academy team is focused on world-class onboarding, upskilling, high-tech and high-touch experiences, serving our communities and furthering a culture of integrity. In 2022, The Academy launched work to implement a consistent, simplified and improved onboarding experience available across the company for new teammates and those moving into new positions. By improving the overall onboarding experience, we drive connection to our culture and values, create efficiencies and reduce operational risk. We recognize that retaining talent is core to how our company drives Responsible Growth. We value our teammates’ varied experiences and learning styles. Through our personalized approach, we offer learning and development programs to help all teammates access the resources they need to advance their careers. Our Learning Marketplace provides tailored experiences for employees in each line of business and support function, helping employees access learning opportunities for their role, build industry knowledge and enhance professional skills. BROAD ENGAGEMENT We engaged nearly 121,000 participants across the full range of structured programs. TRAINING SESSIONS Our teammates completed more than 11 million training hours, including our regulatory-required sessions. NEW ROLE SUPPORT We supported 36,000 employees who were new to their role, 50% of which were internal moves. SIMULATION TRAINING We delivered nearly 624,000 high-tech simulations through immersive technology, such as virtual reality training, to help teammates build proficiency in their jobs and better serve clients. COMMUNITY OUTREACH We developed programs for nonprofit partners to support our communities, with a focus on financial literacy, career readiness, skill-specific learning and industry certifications. Investing in the growth of our leaders and managers For our leaders and managers, we offer a range of development programs to help cultivate their skills. These programs provide assessments, professional coaching and tactics to help leaders progress in their careers and strengthen our leader pipeline for future roles. Our manager curriculum was created in response to employee feedback and designed to build manager capabilities to lead their teams more effectively to drive Responsible Growth. Launched in 2021, eight manager training modules were fully delivered in 2022 and have been well-received. The manager curriculum focuses on what it means to be a successful manager at the company, from championing diversity and inclusion to being a financial steward. It culminates in a capstone experience that enables managers to come together to integrate the eight manager expectations and build an action plan to further their learning. MANAGER CURRICULUM PARTICIPATION About 90% of our managers have participated in at least one module of the series, and nearly 60% of managers have completed all eight modules. MANAGER EXCELLENCE COMMUNITY Community and monthly sessions continue to engage more than 20,000 managers through interactive conversations.

diversity & inclusion Building a diverse and inclusive workplace Our diversity — in thought, style, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, race, ethnicity, culture, religion, age, ability, military status and experience — makes us stronger and is essential for us to serve our clients, fulfill our purpose and drive Responsible Growth. Commitment and accountability Leadership at every level is engaged in, and accountable for, driving diversity and inclusion. This includes our Board of Directors, its committees and our CEO, who all play a key role in the oversight of our culture, expecting management to be accountable for ethical and professional conduct and our commitment to being a great place to work. Each management team member has business-specific, action-oriented diversity goals that are included in their quarterly business review process, talent planning and scorecards reviewed by the Board. Management team members cascade these goals to help drive accountability for diverse representation and an inclusive culture across the company. Leaders understand that making progress toward diversity and inclusion goals and metrics is fundamental to managing their teams, and employees have access to feedback channels to raise questions and share input. Our Global Diversity & Inclusion Council sponsors and supports business, operating unit, and regional diversity and inclusion councils to help align to enterprise diversity strategies and goals. The global council consists of senior executives from every line of business, every region and our local markets, and has been chaired by CEO Brian Moynihan since 2007 — he has never missed a meeting. Continued progress We believe the diversity of our management team reflects the progress we’ve made, with 55% diverse members, including seven women, two Asian, two Black/African American and one Hispanic-Latino leaders. We have worked hard to help narrow the gaps at leadership levels across the company, with improvements in representation of Asian, Black/African American and Hispanic-Latino teammates across key categories, such as management levels 1–3, managers, executive/senior level and mid-level. We invest in talent acquisition programs and community partnerships to create a strong and diverse talent pipeline, which has helped increase representation of women and people of color, and advance racial equality and economic opportunity in communities. Our latest measures show improvement in the diversity of our leadership, management and global workforce: 53% of our Board is diverse, including 33% women. 55% of our management team is diverse, including 32% women. 50% of our global workforce are women, and 50% of our U.S. workforce are people of color. Since 2009, representation of people of color in our campus classes has increased 64%. People of color in executive/senior level individual and management positions have increased by 67% since 2015. Since 2015, representation of people of color in our top three management levels has increased 73%. We’ve made strong progress against our aspirational goal for our workforce to mirror the clients and communities we serve at all levels of the company.

An inclusive culture where teammates bring their whole selves to work Our focus on advancing diversity and inclusion is core to being a great place to work, and it’s something we help drive across the communities we serve, as well. The partnerships we forge with organizations around the world are helping address some of society’s biggest challenges, and we’re able to share what we’re doing as a company with our teammates to create dialogue, build knowledge and overcome challenges. In 2022, we continued our series of courageous conversations and inclusion learning and development programs, providing teammates with opportunities to discuss topics central to who we are, including racial equality, economic opportunity, gender, sexual orientation, disability status, military service, mental health and more. The opportunities include: • Let’s Get Real…®, courageous conversations on issues impacting our communities and open dialogue to provide greater understanding and appreciation for one another • myD&I Development Program, diversity and inclusion learning sessions for individual contributors and employee network members • Inclusion Manager Series, helping equip managers to better address bias and drive inclusion deep within their teams • Diversity & Inclusion Pathways, driving inclusion in the workplace and improving individual cultural competency • Executive development programs, including our Diverse Leader Sponsorship Program, targeting diverse high-potential/top-performing leaders We recognize cultural days and heritage observances that are meaningful for our teammates, reflecting the diversity of our communities and with the understanding that knowledge of these holidays, celebrations and significant moments can strengthen our diverse and inclusive culture. Community partners help build our expertise We work with nearly 200 external partners — including NPower, Urban Alliance, National Association of Black Accountants, Association of Latino Professionals for America, National Association of Asian American Professionals, Paradigm for Parity, Hiring Our Heroes, Neurodiversity in the Workplace, National Center for American Indian Enterprise Development and Out for Undergrad — and more than 600 colleges, universities and community colleges, including HBCUs, HSIs and tribal colleges — to identify diverse talent and expand our impact. Recruiting diverse talent We also focus on recruiting military and veterans, LGBTQ+ individuals and people with disabilities. For example, we: • Hired more than 5,100 individuals with a military background — more than 16% of all U.S. external hires for the year. • Attract and develop LGBTQ+ talent through targeted partnerships with organizations such as Out & Equal Workplace Advocates, Lesbians Who Tech, Trans Can Work and Reaching Out. • Continue to expand our dedicated Support Services team, a team of more than 300 employees with cognitive and developmental disabilities who work with every line of business and function across multiple locations. • Invite employees to share more about who they are through our Count Me In program, including their gender identity, sexual orientation, and disability and military statuses, to help us develop programs and benefits to meet their diverse needs and drive our inclusive culture.

EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT & TURNOVER Employee engagement and turnover Each year, our Employee Engagement Survey gathers the voice of teammates across the company to shape and inform our work going forward. More than 170,000 teammates shared ideas and feedback by participating in our 2022 survey. Our Employee Engagement Index score reflects a strong trend over time — increasing 10 percentage points during the last decade. We also measure an internal Diversity & Inclusion Index1 that gives us feedback on how we measure inclusion at the company. It is up 8 percentage points during the same time, and index scores are strong relative to industry benchmarks over time. The results of the survey and the process of continuous improvement that ensues is discussed with the Board at least annually. Our efforts reflect our progress in being a great place to work. We believe our employee turnover reflects the strength of our employee engagement results and how our teammates view Bank of America as an employer of choice. Over the past decade, our turnover rate has been among the lowest in the industry. In that time, we have experienced vastly different labor markets, the pandemic and return to office. With the tight labor market in 2022, we saw a slight increase in turnover in the first half of the year, and in the second half dropped back to pre-pandemic record lows, resulting in a 13% annualized turnover rate — a strong result for a company of our size and scale. With our variety of resources and programs that support career growth and development, we’re helping teammates have long-term careers with our company. We also continue to enhance our internal mobility practices, which has led to nearly 45% of our open roles being filled by internal candidates 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0 88% 82% 85% 85% 80% 75% 76% 75% 91%15% 15% 3% 14% 12% 12% 12% 11% 7% 20% 15% 10% 5% 0 2013 2014 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022. Employee Engagement Index Score Employee Engagement Index Score Turnover Turnover Our Diversity & Inclusion Index measures core areas like how comfortable teammates feel sharing different opinions without fear of negative consequences, whether or not they feel they are being treated fairly, their impression of how well Bank of America has done in creating an environment where people of diverse backgrounds can succeed and how Bank of America values the unique experiences our teammates bring to the workplace.
