Manager Reinvestment in EJFI Shares

The Board of EJFI, which provides investors exposure to a diversified portfolio of debt issued by smaller US banks and insurance companies and participation in certain management fee income streams of EJF Capital LLC ( the "Manager"), has been notified that EJF Capital Limited, an affiliate of the Manager, has utilised approximately 20% of the Q1 2025 EJFI management fee to purchase 35,952 ordinary shares of the Company on 17 June 2025. This purchase concludes the Manager's program to reinvest up to 20% of the EJFI management fee earned for at least four quarters, for so long as the average share price during the prior quarter traded at least 15% below the Net Asset Value (NAV) per share at the prior quarter end. EJF Capital Limited bought a total of 157,219 ordinary shares as a part of this re-investment program.

The Manager has informed the Board that for at least the next four consecutive quarters (Q3 2025 - Q2 2026) it has decided to re-invest an amount equal to approximately 10% of the Manager's EJFI management fee earned on the same terms as before. The Manager may elect to continue with this program beyond Q2 2026 and will announce any such decision in the future.
