NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Certain amounts in prior-period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation. Such reclassifications have no effect on previously reported net income or shareholders’ equity. For further information, refer to the audited consolidated financial statements and related footnotes included in Cass Information System, Inc.’s (the “Company” or “Cass”) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 ("2023 Form 10-K").

Note 2 – Intangible Assets

The Company accounts for intangible assets in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, which requires that intangibles with indefinite useful lives be tested annually for impairment, or when management deems there is a triggering event, and those with finite useful lives be amortized over their useful lives.

Details of the Company’s intangible assets are as follows:


	June 30, 2024				December 31, 2023
(In thousands)	Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization		Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization
Assets eligible for amortization:
Customer lists	$	6,470	$	(4,979)	$	6,470	$	(4,851)
Patents	72		(38)		72		(36)
Software	3,212		(2,146)		3,212		(1,933)
Trade name	373		(84)		373		(70)
Other	500		(408)		500		(392)
Unamortized intangible assets:
Goodwill	17,309		—		17,309		—
Total intangible assets	$	27,936	$	(7,655)	$	27,936	$	(7,282)

The customer lists are amortized over 7 to 10 years; the patents over 18 years; software over 3 to 7 years; the trade names over 10 to 20 years; and other intangible assets over 15 years. Amortization of intangible assets amounted to $182,000 and $373,000 for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2024, respectively. Amortization of intangible assets amounted to $195,000 and $390,000 for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023, respectively. Estimated annual amortization of intangibles is $738,000 in 2024, $730,000 in 2025, $582,000 in 2026, $262,000 in 2027, and $254,000 in 2028.

Note 3 – Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and the weighted-average number of potential common shares outstanding. Under the treasury stock method, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) are dilutive when the average market price of the Company’s common stock, combined with the effect of any unamortized compensation expense, exceeds the SAR price during a period.

Note 4 – Stock Repurchases

The Company maintains a treasury stock buyback program pursuant to which, in October 2023, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with no expiration date. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had 462,765 shares remaining available for repurchase under the program. The Company repurchased 0 and 23,271 shares during the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2024, respectively and 63,305 shares for both the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023, respectively. Repurchases may be made in the open market or through negotiated transactions from time to time depending on market conditions.

Note 5 – Industry Segment Information

The services provided by the Company are classified into two reportable segments: Information Services and Banking Services. Each of these segments provides distinct services that are marketed through different channels. They are managed separately due to their unique service and processing requirements.

The Information Services segment provides transportation, energy, telecommunication, and environmental invoice processing and payment services to large corporations. In addition, this segment provides church management software and on-line generosity services primarily for faith-based ministries. The Banking Services segment provides banking services primarily to privately held businesses, franchise restaurants, and faith-based ministries, as well as supporting the banking needs of the Information Services segment.

The Company’s accounting policies for segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K. Management evaluates segment performance based on pre-tax income after allocations for corporate expenses. Transactions between segments are accounted for at what management believes to be fair value.

Substantially all revenue originates from, and all long-lived assets are located within, the United States and no revenue from any customer of any segment exceeds 10% of the Company’s consolidated revenue.

Funding sources represent average balances and deposits generated by Information Services and Banking Services and there is no allocation methodology used. Banking Services interest income is determined by actual interest income on loans minus actual interest expense paid on deposits plus/minus an allocation for interest income or expense dependent on the remaining available liquidity of the segment. Information Services interest income is determined by multiplying available liquidity by actual yields on short-term investments and investment securities.

Any difference between total segment interest income and overall total Company interest income is included in Corporate, Eliminations, and Other.

1 Loans subject to normal monitoring involve borrowers of acceptable-to-strong credit quality and risk, who have the apparent ability to satisfy their loan obligations.
2 Loans subject to special monitoring possess some credit deficiency or potential weakness which requires a high level of management attention.

Loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty may be in the form of principal forgiveness, an interest rate reduction, an other-than-insignificant payment delay, a term extension, or a combination thereof, among other things. There were no loans modified during the six-month period ended June 30, 2024. The following table shows the amortized

At June 30, 2024, the Company had no commitments to lend additional funds to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty for which the Company modified the terms of the loans in the form of principal forgiveness, an interest rate reduction, an other-than-insignificant payment delay, or a term extension during the current period.

There were no modified loans that had a payment default during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 or 2023 and that had been modified due to the borrower experiencing financial difficulty within the 12 previous months preceding the default.

Upon the Company's determination that a modified loan has subsequently been deemed uncollectible, the loan is written off. There were no loans written off during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 or 2023.

The Company had no loans evaluated for expected credit losses on an individual basis as of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively.

There were no foreclosed loans recorded as other real estate owned as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023.

A summary of the activity in the allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) by category for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and year-ended December 31, 2023 is as follows:

(1)			For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 and year-ended December 31, 2023, there was a release of credit losses of $50,000 and $100,000, respectively, for unfunded commitments.

Note 7 – Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company is party to activities that contain credit, market and operational risks that are not reflected in whole or in part in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. As more fully described in the Form

-14-

Table of Contents

10-K, such activities include traditional off-balance sheet credit-related financial instruments. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, commercial letters of credit and standby letters of credit. The Company’s maximum potential exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit, commercial letters of credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amounts of those instruments. Commitments to extend credit and letters of credit are subject to the same underwriting standards as those financial instruments included on the consolidated balance sheets. An allowance for unfunded commitments of $82,000 and $132,000 had been recorded at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

At June 30, 2024, the balances of unfunded commitments, standby and commercial letters of credit were $251.4 million, $13.7 million, and $729,000, respectively. Since some of the financial instruments may expire without being drawn upon, the total amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

On March 19, 2024, the Company filed a claim against Rubicon Technologies, Inc. ("Rubicon") for failed reimbursement of invoices that were processed and paid by the Company on Rubicon's behalf and unpaid fees for Company services that are due for invoice management services and bill pay services, together with interest and penalties related to the foregoing amounts. The Company has a receivable at June 30, 2024 for $8.1 million related to these amounts on the Company's consolidated balance sheet. The Company evaluated the receivable from a credit loss perspective, and, based on this evaluation, recorded a reserve of $1.3 million through other operating expense on the consolidated statements of income for the three and six-months ended June 30, 2024. While the Company strongly believes in the merits of its claim against Rubicon, it is reasonably possible that a change in the reserve related to this receivable could occur in the near term depending on the creditworthiness of Rubicon.

On April 22, 2024, Rubicon filed a counterclaim against the Company for failure to perform its obligations under the Master Services Agreement between the Company and Rubicon. The Company believes these claims to be without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself against such claims.

Note 8 – Stock-Based Compensation

On February 16, 2023, the Board of Directors adopted the 2023 Omnibus Stock and Performance Compensation Plan (the "2023 Omnibus Plan"), which was approved by the Company's shareholders on April 18, 2023. The 2023 Omnibus Plan permits the issuance of up to 1.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock in the form of stock options, SARs, restricted stock, restricted stock units, phantom stock, and performance awards. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, 54,462 time-based restricted shares and 51,261 performance-based restricted shares were granted under the 2023 Omnibus Plan. Stock-based compensation expense was $474,000 and $1.7 million for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and $909,000 and $2.9 million for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023, respectively.

Restricted Stock

Restricted shares granted to Company employees are amortized to expense over a three-year cliff vesting period, or until vesting occurs upon retirement. Restricted shares granted to members of the Board of Directors are amortized to expense over a one-year service period, with the exception of those shares granted in lieu of cash payments for retainer fees which are expensed in the period earned.

As of June 30, 2024, the total unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested restricted shares was $2.6 million, and the related weighted-average period over which it is expected to be recognized is approximately 0.72 years.

Following is a summary of the activity of the Company's restricted stock for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, with total shares and weighted-average fair value:


	Six Months Ended June 30, 2024

Performance-Based Restricted Stock

The Company has granted three-year performance-based restricted stock (“PBRS”) awards which are contingent upon the Company’s achievement of pre-established financial goals over a three-year cliff vest period. The number of shares issued ranges from 0% to 150% of the target opportunity based on the actual achievement of financial goals for the three-year performance period.

Following is a summary of the activity of the PBRS for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, based on 100% of target value:


	Six Months Ended June 30, 2024
	Shares	Fair Value
Balance at December 31, 2023	159,073	$	42.74
Granted	51,261	44.29

Forfeitures	(1,066)	43.70
Balance at June 30, 2024	158,428	$	43.87

The PBRS that vested during the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 were based on the Company's achievement of 135.4% of target financial goals for the 2021-2023 performance period, resulting in the issuance of 68,834 shares of common stock. The outstanding PBRS at June 30, 2024 will vest at scheduled vesting dates and the actual number of shares of common stock issued will range from 0% to 150% of the target opportunity based on the actual achievement of financial goals for the respective three-year performance period.

SARs

There were no SARs granted and no expense recognized during the six-month period ended June 30, 2024. Following is a summary of the activity of the Company’s SARs program for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024:

Note 9 – Defined Pension Plans

The Company has a noncontributory defined-benefit pension plan (the “Plan”), which covers eligible employees. Effective December 31, 2016, the Plan was closed to all new participants. Additionally, the Plan’s benefits were frozen for all remaining participants as of February 28, 2021.

On July 16, 2024, the Company approved an Amendment providing for the termination of the Plan. The Company expects to record one-time termination expenses of approximately $5.0 million through operating expense related to the termination of the Plan. The expense related to the termination is expected to be incurred during the fourth quarter of 2024 and first

quarter of 2025 as the Plan's liabilities are settled via lump sum payments or annuity purchases. The following table represents the components of net periodic pension cost:


(In thousands)	Estimated 2024		Actual 2023

Expected return on plan assets	(3,512)		(3,735)
Net amortization	—		154
Net periodic pension cost	$	779	$	733

The Company recorded net periodic pension cost of $194,000 and $389,000 for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2024, and $99,000 and $199,000 for the three and six-month periods June 30, 2023. The Company made no contributions to the Plan during the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 and does not expect to make any contributions for the remainder of 2024.

In addition to the above Plan, the Company has an unfunded supplemental executive retirement plan (the "SERP"). There are no current employees earning benefits and therefore, there is no service cost associated with the SERP. The following table represents the components of the net periodic cost for the SERP:


(In thousands)	Estimated 2024		Actual 2023

Interest cost on projected benefit obligation	$	451	$	472

Net periodic pension cost	$	451	$	472

SERP cost recorded to expense was $112,000 and $225,000 for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2024, and was $118,000 and $236,000 for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023.

Note 10 – Income Taxes

The effective tax rate was 22.6% and 21.4% for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2024, and was 19.5% and 20.1% for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023, respectively. The effective tax rate for all periods differs from the statutory rate of 21% primarily due to state related taxes partially offset by the tax-exempt interest received from municipal bonds and bank-owned life insurance, among other factors.

Note 11 – Investment in Securities

Investment securities available-for-sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company’s investment securities available-for-sale are measured at fair value using Level 2 valuations. The market evaluation utilizes several sources which include “observable inputs” rather than “significant unobservable inputs” and therefore fall into the Level 2 category. The amortized cost, gross unrealized gains, gross unrealized losses and fair value of investment securities are summarized as follows:

There were 260 securities, or 95.6% (244 of which for greater than 12 months), in an unrealized loss position as of June 30, 2024. The unrealized losses at June 30, 2024 were primarily attributable to changes in market interest rates after the

securities were purchased. The Company does not currently intend to sell, and based on current conditions, the Company does not believe it will be required to sell these available-for-sale securities before the recovery of the amortized cost basis, which may be the maturity dates of the securities. Therefore, the unrealized losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss. There were 275 securities, or 98.9% (210 of which for greater than 12 months), in an unrealized loss position as of December 31, 2023. At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had not recorded an allowance for credit losses on securities.

The amortized cost and fair value of investment securities by contractual maturity are shown in the following table. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers have the right to prepay obligations with or without prepayment penalties.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value:

Cash and Cash Equivalents - The carrying amount approximates fair value.

Investment in Securities - The fair value is measured on a recurring basis using Level 2 valuations. Refer to Note 11, “Investment in Securities,” for fair value and unrealized gains and losses by investment type.

-19-

Table of Contents

Loans - The fair value is estimated using present values of future cash flows discounted at risk-adjusted interest rates for each loan category designated by management and is therefore a Level 3 valuation. Management believes that the risk factor embedded in the interest rates along with the allowance for credit losses result in a fair valuation.

Accrued Interest Receivable - The carrying amount approximates fair value.

Deposits - The fair value of demand deposits, savings deposits and certain money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities and therefore, is a Level 2 valuation. The fair value estimates above do not include the benefit that results from the low-cost funding provided by the deposit liabilities compared to the cost of borrowing funds in the market or the benefit derived from the customer relationship inherent in existing deposits.

Accounts and Drafts Payable - The carrying amount approximates fair value.

Accrued Interest Payable - The carrying amount approximates fair value.

Note 13 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Revenue is recognized as the obligation to the customer is satisfied. The following is detail of the Company’s revenue from contracts with clients.

Processing fees – The Company earns fees on a per-item or monthly basis for the invoice processing services rendered on behalf of customers. Per-item fees are recognized at the point in time when the performance obligation is satisfied. Monthly fees are earned over the course of a month, representing the period over which the performance obligation is satisfied. The contracts have no significant impact of variable consideration and no significant financing components.

Financial fees – The Company earns fees on a transaction level basis for invoice payment services when making customer payments. Fees are recognized at the point in time when the payment transactions are made, which is when the performance obligation is satisfied. The contracts have no significant impact of variable consideration and no significant financing components.

Bank service fees – Revenue from service fees consists of service charges and fees on deposit accounts under depository agreements with customers to provide access to deposited funds. Service charges on deposit accounts are transaction-based fees that are recognized at the point in time when the performance obligation is satisfied. The contracts have no significant impact of variable consideration and no significant financing components.

The following table presents non-interest income, segregated by revenue streams in-scope and out-of-scope for the periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

Cass Information Systems, Inc. ("Cass" or the "Company") provides payment and information processing services to large manufacturing, distribution, and retail enterprises across the United States. The Company’s services include freight invoice rating, payment processing, auditing, and the generation of accounting and transportation information. Cass also processes and pays facility-related invoices, which include electricity and gas as well as waste and telecommunications expenses, and is a provider of telecom expense management solutions. Cass solutions include integrated payments, a B2B payment platform for clients that require an agile fintech partner. Additionally, the Company offers a church management software solution and an on-line platform to provide generosity services for faith-based and non-profit organizations. The Company’s bank subsidiary, Cass Commercial Bank (the “Bank”), supports the Company’s payment operations. The Bank also provides banking services to its target markets, which include privately held businesses in the St. Louis metropolitan area and restaurant franchises and faith-based ministries within the United States.

In general, Cass is compensated for its information processing services through service fees, transactional level payment services, and investment of account balances generated during the payment process. Both the number of transactions processed and the dollar volume processed are therefore key metrics followed by management. The Bank earns most of its revenue from net interest income.

Various factors will influence the Company’s revenue and profitability, such as changes in the general level of interest rates, which has a significant effect on net interest income; industry-wide factors, such as the willingness of large corporations to outsource key business functions, the general level of transportation costs, deregulation of energy costs, and consolidation of telecommunication providers; and economic factors that include the general level of economic activity, the ability to hire and retain qualified staff, and the growth and quality of the Bank’s loan portfolio. For a more detailed discussion of the Company’s revenue drivers and factors that impact the Company’s results of operation and financial condition generally, see Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K.

Recent Industry Developments

The transportation industry continues to experience a decline in overall freight rates caused by an ongoing freight recession. The freight recession adversely affects the number of freight transactions and dollar amount of invoices processed. Partially as a result, the Company's transportation invoice and dollar volumes declined 3.5% and 9.8%, respectively during the first six months of 2024 as compared to the same period in 2023. Transportation dollar volumes are key to the Company’s revenue as higher volumes generally lead to an increase in payment float, which generates interest income, as well as an increase in payments in advance of funding, which generates financial fees.

As a result of rising inflation, the Federal Reserve has increased the Federal Funds rate. The increase in the Federal Funds rate has contributed to a slight increase in the Company's net interest margin. Inflation has also had the impact of increasing operating expenses, such as compensation expense.

2024 Items of Note

Net interest income for the second quarter of 2024 decreased $84,000, or 0.5%, as compared to the same period in 2023. The decrease in net interest income was attributable to a decline in average interest-earning assets of $52.3 million, or 2.6%. The Company had fewer funds to invest due to the loss of approximately $100.0 million of balances in February 2024 as a result of a cyber attack experienced by large client in the Company's CassPay division. CassPay offers solutions such as integrated payments, a B2B payment platform for clients. The Company does not expect these payment volumes and related balances from this client to return.

Despite the decline in average accounts and drafts payable during the quarter, the Company’s liquidity position and balance sheet remains strong. The Company maintained average short-term investments of $265.3 million during the second quarter of 2024. In addition, all of the Company's investment securities are classified as available-for-sale and there were no outstanding borrowings at June 30, 2024.

Included in other operating expenses for the second quarter of 2024 are $2.1 million of reserves and other losses on outstanding receivables in addition to $1.3 million related to estimated late fees to be incurred on facility transactions. See Note 7, "Commitments and Contingencies" for further information on the reserves and other losses. The late fees were

mostly driven by a check processing delay with our third-party vendor, the same client that incurred a cyber attack, as described above.

Also, on July 16, 2024, the Company approved an Amendment providing for the termination of its noncontributory defined-benefit pension plan. The Company expects to record one-time termination expenses of approximately $5.0 million through operating expense related to the plan termination. The expense related to the termination is expected to be incurred during the fourth quarter of 2024 and first quarter of 2025 as the plan liabilities are settled. The successful termination of the plan is expected to reduce run rate operating expense by approximately $1.0 million on an annual basis.

Fee Revenue and Other Income

The Company’s fee revenue is derived mainly from transportation and facility processing and financial fees. As the Company provides its processing and payment services, it is compensated by service fees which are typically calculated on a per-item basis, discounts received for services provided to carriers and by the accounts and drafts payable balances generated in the payment process which can be used to generate interest income. Processing volumes, average payments in advance of funding, and fee revenue were as follows:

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is the difference between interest earned on loans, investments, and other earning assets and interest expense on deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income is a significant source of the Company’s revenues. The following table summarizes the changes in tax-equivalent net interest income and related factors:

*Presented on a tax-equivalent basis assuming a tax rate of 21% for both 2024 and 2023.

Second quarter of 2024 compared to second quarter of 2023:

The decrease in net interest income is primarily due to the decrease in average earning assets of $52.3 million, or 2.6%, partially offset by an increase in the net interest margin to 3.32%, as compared to 3.25% in the same quarter last year. The yield on interest-earning assets increased 43 basis points from 3.98% to 4.41% while the cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 46 basis points from 2.89% to 3.35%.

Average loans decreased $36.4 million, or 3.4%, to $1.04 billion. The decrease in average loans was primarily due to the Company opting to be more selective in booking new loans as a result of a decline in average deposits. The average yield on loans increased 44 basis points to 5.26%.

Average investment securities decreased $96.0 million, or 12.8%, to $653.7 million. The Company has not offset maturities and sales of investment securities with new purchase volume primarily due to the decline in average funding sources. The average yield on taxable investment securities increased 25 basis points to 2.88% and the average yield on tax-exempt investment securities increased 7 basis points to 2.75% driven by purchases of investment securities at current market interest rates and maturities and sales of securities at below market interest rates.

Average short-term investments, consisting of interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions and federal funds sold, increased $80.1 million, or 43.2%, to $265.3 million. The increase is primarily a result of the sale and maturities of investment securities and the decline in average loans, partially offset by a decrease in average funding sources. The average yield on short-term investments increased 40 basis points to 4.95%, primarily due to higher average short-term interest rates when comparing the periods. The majority of these short-term investments are held at the Federal Reserve Bank.

The average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased $129.0 million, or 25.3%, to $638.3 million. Average non-interest-bearing demand deposits decreased $145.6 million, or 26.3%, to $407.1 million. The Company has experienced a migration of client funds from non-interest bearing to interest-bearing driven by the higher interest rate environment. The average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits increased 47 basis points to 3.35% due to higher average short-term interest rates when comparing the periods.

Average accounts and drafts payable decreased $52.3 million, or 5.0%, to $996.9 million. The decrease in average accounts and drafts payable was primarily reflective of a cyber event at a client, as described above, which decreased average balances approximately $100.0 million as well as the decrease in transportation dollar volumes of 6.5%, partially offset by an increase in facility dollar volume of 10.1%.

First half of 2024 compared to first half of 2023:

The decrease in net interest income is primarily due to the decrease in average earning assets of $75.5 million, or 3.6%, partially offset by the increase in the net interest margin to 3.29%, as compared to 3.24% in the prior year. The yield on

Table of Contents

interest-earning assets increased 43 basis points from 3.91% to 4.34% while the cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 80 basis points from 2.52% to 3.32%.

Average loans decreased $48.2 million, or 4.5%, to $1.03 billion. The decrease in average loans was primarily due to the Company opting to be more selective in booking new loans as a result of a decline in average deposits. The average yield on loans increased 44 basis points to 5.16%.

Average investment securities decreased $96.1 million, or 12.5%, to $674.3 million. The average yield on taxable investment securities increased 20 basis points to 2.79% and the average yield on tax-exempt investment securities declined 3 basis points to 2.72%. The Company has not offset maturities and sales of investment securities with new purchase volume primarily due to the decline in average funding sources. The increase in the average yield on taxable investment securities was driven by purchases of investment securities at current market interest rates and maturities and sales of securities at below market interest rates.

Average short-term investments, consisting of interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions and federal funds sold, increased $68.8 million, or 28.7%, to $308.7 million. The increase is primarily a result of the decline in average investment securities and loans, partially offset by a decrease in average funding sources. The average yield on short-term investments increased 64 basis points to 5.02%, primarily due to higher average short-term interest rates when comparing the periods. The majority of these short-term investments are held at the Federal Reserve Bank.

The average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased $85.0 million, or 15.5%, to $635.0 million. Average non-interest-bearing demand deposits decreased $125.7 million, or 22.7%, to $427.5 million. The Company has experienced a migration of client funds from non-interest bearing to interest-bearing driven by the higher interest rate environment. The average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits increased 82 basis points to 3.32% due to higher average short-term interest rates when comparing the periods.

Average accounts and drafts payable decreased $55.7 million, or 5.2%, to $1.02 billion. The decrease in average accounts and drafts payable was primarily reflective of a cyber event experienced by a client, as described above, which decreased average balances approximately $100.0 million as well as the decrease in transportation dollar volumes of 9.8%, partially offset by an increase in facility dollar volumes of 4.8%.

Provision and Allowance for Credit Losses and Allowance for Unfunded Commitments

The Company recorded a provision for credit losses and off-balance sheet credit exposures of $400,000 for the second quarter of 2024 and release of credit losses of $120,000 in second quarter of 2023. The Company recorded a provision for credit losses and off-balance sheet credit exposures of $495,000 for the first half of 2024 and release of credit losses of $460,000 in first half of 2023.The amount of the provision for (release of) credit losses is derived from the Company’s quarterly Current Expected Credit Loss (“CECL”) model. The amount of the provision for (release of) credit losses will fluctuate as determined by these quarterly analyses. The provision for credit losses in the second quarter and first half of 2024 was driven by an increase in total loans of $47.7 million, or 4.7%, as compared to December 31, 2023.

The Company experienced no loan charge-offs in the second quarter of 2024 and 2023. The ACL was $13.6 million at June 30, 2024 and $13.1 million at December 31, 2023. The ACL represented 1.28% of outstanding loans at June 30, 2024 and 1.29% of outstanding loans at December 31, 2023. The allowance for unfunded commitments was $82,000 at June 30, 2024 and $132,000 at December 31, 2023. There were no nonperforming loans outstanding at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

The ACL has been established and is maintained to estimate the lifetime expected credit losses in the loan portfolio. An ongoing assessment is performed to determine if the balance is adequate. Charges or credits are made to expense based on changes in the economic forecast, qualitative risk factors, loan volume, and individual loans. For loans that are individually evaluated, the Company uses two impairment measurement methods: 1) the present value of expected future cash flows and 2) collateral value.

The Company also utilizes ratio analyses to evaluate the overall reasonableness of the ACL compared to its peers and required levels of regulatory capital. Federal and state regulatory agencies review the Company’s methodology for maintaining the ACL. These agencies may require the Company to adjust the ACL based on their judgments and interpretations about information available to them at the time of their examinations.

Second quarter of 2024 compared to second quarter of 2023:

Personnel expenses increased $425,000, or 1.4%. Salaries and commissions increased $642,000, or 2.7%, primarily as a result of merit increases. Share-based compensation decreased $435,000, reflecting the Company's financial performance and the impact on performance-based restricted stock between the periods.

Equipment expense increased $239,000, or 13.7%, partially due to an increase in depreciation expense related to technology initiatives throughout our lines of business.

Other operating expenses increased $2.9 million, or 40.9%. Included in other operating expenses for the second quarter of 2024 are $2.1 million of reserves and other losses on outstanding receivables in addition to $1.3 million related to estimated late fees to be incurred on facility transactions. The late fees were mostly driven by a check processing delay with our third-party vendor, the same client that experienced a cyber attack, as described above.

First half of 2024 compared to first half of 2023:

Personnel expenses increased $1.0 million, or 1.7%. Salaries and commissions increased $2.0 million, or 4.4%, primarily as a result of merit increases. Share-based compensation decreased $1.2 million, reflecting the Company's financial performance and the impact on performance-based restricted stock between the periods.

Equipment expense increased $470,000, or 13.8%, partially due to an increase in depreciation expense related to technology initiatives throughout our lines of business.

Other operating expenses increased $2.4 million, or 16.1% for the same reasons as described for the quarterly variance above, partially offset by lower levels of outside service expense as technology initiatives are completed.

Financial Condition

Total assets at June 30, 2024 were $2.28 billion, a decrease of $196.0 million, or 7.9%, from December 31, 2023.

The Company experienced a decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $148.7 million, or 39.9%, during the first half of 2024. The change in cash and cash equivalents reflects the Company’s daily liquidity position and is primarily affected by changes in funding sources, mainly accounts and drafts payable and deposits, cash flows in and out of loans, investments securities and payments in advance of funding.

The investment securities portfolio decreased $86.3 million, or 13.8%, during the first half of 2024. The decrease is due to sales of $25.0 million and maturities of $103.6 million, partially offset by purchases of $47.0 million.

Loans increased $47.7 million, or 4.7%, from December 31, 2023. The Company experienced growth in its franchise restaurant and equipment finance loan portfolios during the first half of 2024.

Payments in advance of funding increased $15.7 million, or 7.9%. from December 31, 2023 due to timing of funding.

-31-

Table of Contents

Accounts and drafts receivable from customers decreased $32.2 million, or 29.1%, from December 31, 2023. The decrease is solely due to timing of customer funding.

Total deposits at June 30, 2024 were $1.01 billion, a decrease of $128.5 million, or 11.3%, from December 31, 2023. The decrease is primarily due to timing as well as seasonal tax and compensation payments of Bank clients.

Accounts and drafts payable at June 30, 2024 were $996.8 million, a decrease of $74.5 million, or 7.0%, from December 31, 2023. The decrease in accounts and drafts payable was primarily reflective of a cyber event at a client which decreased average balances approximately $100.0 million. Accounts and drafts payable will fluctuate from period-end to period-end due to the payment processing cycle, which results in lower balances on days when payments clear and higher balances on days when payments are issued. For this reason, average balances are generally a more meaningful measure of accounts and drafts payable.

Total liabilities at June 30, 2024 were $2.05 billion, a decrease of $196.1 million, or 8.7%, from December 31, 2023, reflective of the decrease in deposits and accounts and drafts payable.

Total shareholders’ equity at June 30, 2024 was $229.9 million, a $116,000 increase from December 31, 2023. The increase in shareholders’ equity is a result of the first half of 2024 net income of $11.6 million, partially offset by dividends paid of $8.2 million, the repurchase of Company stock of $1.1 million, and an increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss of $2.2 million primarily related to the fair value of available-for-sale investment securities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The discipline of liquidity management as practiced by the Company seeks to ensure that funds are available to fulfill all payment obligations relating to invoices processed as they become due and meet depositor withdrawal requests and borrower credit demands while at the same time maximizing profitability. This is accomplished by balancing changes in demand for funds with changes in supply of funds. Primary liquidity to meet demand is provided by short-term liquid assets that can be converted to cash, maturing securities and the ability to obtain funds from external sources. The Company's Asset/Liability Committee has direct oversight responsibility for the Company's liquidity position and profile. Management considers both on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet items in its evaluation of liquidity.

The balance of liquid assets consists of cash and cash equivalents, which include cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions, federal funds sold and money market funds. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $223.7 million at June 30, 2024, a decrease of $148.7 million, or 39.9%, from December 31, 2023. At June 30, 2024, these assets represented 9.8% of total assets and are the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ primary source of liquidity to meet future expected and unexpected loan demand, depositor withdrawals or reductions in accounts and drafts payable.

Secondary sources of liquidity include the investment portfolio and borrowing lines. Total investment securities were $540.8 million at June 30, 2024, a decrease of $86.3 million from December 31, 2023. These assets represented 23.7% of total assets at June 30, 2024. Of the total portfolio, 8.2% mature in one year, 24.1% mature in one to five years, and 67.7% mature in five or more years.

The Bank has unsecured lines of credit at six correspondent banks to purchase federal funds up to a maximum of $83.0 million in aggregate. As of June 30, 2024, the Bank also has secured lines of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank of $193.1 million collateralized by mortgage loans. The Company also has secured lines of credit from three banks up to a maximum of $250.0 million in aggregate collateralized by investment securities. There were no amounts outstanding under any line of credit as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023.

The deposits of the Company's banking subsidiary have historically been stable, consisting of a sizable volume of core deposits related to customers that utilize other commercial products of the Bank, including CassPay and faith-based customers. The accounts and drafts payable generated by the Company has also historically been a stable source of funds. The Company is part of the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service (“CDARS”) and Insured Cash Sweep (“ICS”) deposit placement programs. Time deposits include $49.0 million of CDARS deposits and interest-bearing demand deposits include $154.9 million of ICS deposits. These programs offer the Bank’s customers the ability to maximize Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance coverage. The Company uses these programs to retain or attract deposits from existing customers.

Net cash flows provided by operating activities were $20.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, compared to $17.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $3.5 million. Net cash flows from investing and financing activities fluctuate greatly as the Company actively manages its investment and loan portfolios and

customer activity influences changes in deposit and accounts and drafts payable balances. Other causes for the changes in these account balances are discussed earlier in this report. Due to the daily fluctuations in these account balances, the analysis of changes in average balances, also discussed earlier in this report, can be more indicative of underlying activity than the period-end balances used in the statements of cash flows. Management anticipates that cash and cash equivalents, maturing investments and cash from operations will continue to be sufficient to fund the Company’s operations and capital expenditures in 2024, which are estimated to range from $10 million to $12 million.

Net income plus amortization of intangible assets, net amortization of premium/discount on investment securities and depreciation of premises and equipment was $16.3 million and $19.0 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, a decrease of $2.6 million. The first half of 2024 reflected lower net income of $2.6 million and higher depreciation of $296,000, which was partially offset by a decrease in net amortization of premium/discount on investment securities of $305,000. The net amortization of premium/discount on investment securities is dependent on the type of securities purchased and changes in the prevailing market interest rate environment.

Other factors impacting the $3.5 million increase in net cash provided by operating activities include:

•An increase in other operating activities, net of $2.5 million, primarily due to changes in various other assets and liabilities;

•A smaller increase in accounts receivable of $2.2 million; and

•A change in the increase (decrease) of the current income tax liability of $1.6 million and

•A change in the provision for (release of) credit losses of $1.0 million primarily due to changes in loans outstanding during the respective periods.

These factors were partially offset by a decrease in stock compensation expense of $1.2 million.

The Company faces market risk to the extent that its net interest income and fair market value of equity are affected by changes in market interest rates. For information regarding the market risk of the Company’s financial instruments, see Item 3, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.”

There are several trends and uncertainties that may impact the Company’s ability to generate revenues and income at the levels that it has in the past. Those that could significantly impact the Company include the general levels of interest rates, business activity, inflation, and energy costs as well as new business opportunities available to the Company. For more detailed information on these trends and uncertainties and how they can generally affect the Company’s available liquidity, see Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity” in the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K.

As a bank holding company, the Company and the Bank are subject to capital requirements administered by state and federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines, and, for banks, prompt correct action regulations, involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weighting, and other factors. In addition, the calculation of all types of regulatory capital is subject to deductions and adjustments specified in the regulations. For example, as allowed under the Basel III Capital Rules, the Company has elected to opt-out of the requirement to include most components of accumulated other comprehensive income in common equity Tier 1 capital. For more information on these regulatory requirements, including the Basel III Capital Rules and capital classifications, see Item 1, "Business-Supervision and Regulation" and Item 8, Note 2, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of the Company's 2023 Form 10-K.

Impact of New and Not Yet Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2023, the FASB issued 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements - Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC's Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative ("ASU 2023-06"). This ASU amends the ASC to incorporate certain disclosure requirements from SEC Release No. 33-10532 - Disclosure Update and Simplification that was issued in 2018.

The effective date for each amendment will be the date on which the SEC's removal of that related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K becomes effective, with early adoption prohibited. ASU 2023-06 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.

In November 2023, the FASB issued 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 820): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures ("ASU 2023-07"). This ASU expands segment disclosure requirements for public entities to require disclosure of significant segment expenses and other segment items on an annual and interim basis and to provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment's profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after

December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. ASU 2023-07 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09"). This ASU requires public business entities to disclose in their rate reconciliation table additional categories of information about federal, state, and foreign income taxes and to provide more details about the reconciling items in some categories if items meet a quantitative threshold. It also requires all entities to disclose income taxes paid, net of refunds, disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign taxes for annual periods and to disaggregate the information by jurisdiction based on a quantitative threshold, among other things. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, though early adoption is permitted. ASU 2023-09 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company has prepared the consolidated financial statements in this report in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates have been generally accurate in the past, have been consistent and have not required any material changes. There can be no assurances that actual results will not differ from those estimates. The accounting policy that requires significant management estimates and is deemed critical to the Company’s results of operations or financial position has been discussed with the Audit and Risk Committee of the Board of Directors and is described below.

Allowance for Credit Losses. The Company performs periodic and systematic detailed reviews of its loan portfolio to determine management’s estimate of the lifetime expected credit losses. Although these estimates are based on established methodologies for determining allowance requirements, actual results can differ significantly from estimated results. These policies affect both segments of the Company. The impact and associated risks related to these policies on the Company’s business operations are discussed in the “Provision and Allowance for Credit Losses and Allowance for Unfunded Commitments” section of this report.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As described in the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company manages its interest rate risk through measurement techniques that include gap analysis and a simulation model. As part of the risk management process, asset/liability management policies are established and monitored by management.

The following table summarizes simulated changes in net interest income versus unchanged rates over the next 12 months as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.


	% change in projected net interest income
		June 30, 2024		December 31, 2023
+200 basis points		9.4	%	14.7	%
+100 basis points		5.7	%	6.5	%
Flat rates		—	%	—	%
-100 basis points		(1.0)	%	(3.2)	%
-200 basis points		(2.3)	%	(6.0)	%

The Company is generally asset sensitive as average interest-earning assets of $1.96 billion for the second quarter of 2024 greatly exceeded average interest-bearing liabilities of $638.3 million. The table above on the projected impact of interest rate shocks results from a static balance sheet at June 30, 2024.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company’s management, under the supervision and with the participation of the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report and concluded that, as of such date, these controls and procedures were effective.

Exhibit 10.1 Restricted Stock Award Agreement Form 2023 Omnibus Plan EMPLOYEE.docx EXHIBIT A CASS INFORMATION SYSTEMS, INC. 2023 OMNIBUS STOCK AND PERFORMANCE COMPENSATION PLAN RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT Participant Name: Date of Grant: Number of Restricted Shares subject to this Award: We are pleased to inform you that, as an employee or director of Cass Information Systems, Inc. (“Cass” or “the Company”) or one of its Subsidiaries, you are granted an Award of Restricted Shares (“Shares”) under the Cass Information Systems, Inc. 2023 Omnibus Stock and Performance Compensation Plan (the “Plan”). Each Share under this Award represents one share of Cass common stock, $0.50 par value per share. This Award Agreement is subject to your acceptance as provided in Section 1 below and the terms and conditions that follow in this Award Agreement. The date of the Award evidenced by this Award Agreement (the “Date of Grant”) is set forth above. The terms and conditions of this Award Agreement, including non-standard provisions permitted by the Plan, are set forth below. 1. Acceptance of Award. This Award Agreement is to be accepted by signing your name on the signature page of this Award Agreement and causing it to be delivered to the Secretary of Cass, 12444 Powerscourt Drive, Suite 550, St. Louis, MO 63131, before 4:30 p.m. Central time on the 30th day after the Date of Grant. If the Secretary does not receive your properly signed copy of this Award Agreement before the time and date specified in the previous sentence, then, despite anything else provided in this Agreement, this Award will be void as if it was never awarded to you and will be of no effect. Your signing and timely delivering of this Award Agreement will evidence your acceptance on the terms and conditions stated in this Award Agreement. 2. Vesting and Forfeiture of Restricted Stock a. Vesting of Time-Based Restricted Shares. With respect to forty percent (40%) of your Award Shares covering ___ Shares (“Time-Based Restricted Shares”) will vest and become immediately transferrable on ______________ (“Vesting Date”), which is three years from the date of grant (“Restriction Period”), if you remain employed through the Vesting Date, the Restriction Period will lapse with respect to applicable Time-Based Restricted Shares and Cass shall deliver the Shares to you effective three years from the date of grant. Cass shall deliver the Shares to you as explained in Section 3 of this Award Agreement. b. Vesting of Performance-Based Restricted Shares. With respect to sixty percent (60%) of your Award Shares covering ___ Shares, (“Performance-Based Restricted Shares”), such Shares will vest and immediately become transferrable on _______________ (“Vesting Date”) in an amount, if any, based on the achievement of the performance goals set forth in Section 2.b.(i)-(iv) below. Any Performance-

2 Based Restricted Shares which do not become vested because of the failure to achieve these performance goals for the Performance Period shall be forfeited. i. The percentage of Performance-Based Restricted Shares shall vest based on achievement of earnings per share (“EPS”) and return on equity (“ROE”) goals over the Performance Period described below, as indicated in the table below. Each factor will be weighted 50% in determining the total percentage of Shares earned. Performance Period: Beginning ____________________ (Three Years) Ending ____________________ 50% Threshold 100% Target 150% Maximum Earnings per Share (EPS) $____ $____ $____ Return on Equity (ROE) __% __% __% ii. The percentage earned related to EPS goals shall be determined based on the cumulative EPS for the 3 year Performance Period. 100% will be earned if the Company achieves target performance, 50% shall be earned if the Company achieves threshold performance and a maximum of 150% of the shares shall be earned if the Company achieves maximum or better performance. Performance that falls between threshold and target or target and maximum performance shall be interpolated between the respective percentages. Any performance that falls below threshold will result in 0% earned attributable to EPS performance. iii. The percentage earned related to ROE goals shall be based on the average ROE measured by calculating the average of each of the calendar year’s annual average ROE calculations over the 3 year Performance Period. 100% will be earned if the Company achieves target performance, 50% shall be earned if the Company achieves threshold performance and a maximum of 150% of the Shares will be earned if the Company achieves maximum or better performance. Performance that falls between threshold and target or target and maximum performance shall be interpolated between the respective percentages. Any performance that falls below threshold will result in 0% earned attributable to ROE performance. iv. A weighting of 50% will be applied to each of the percentages earned related to EPS and ROE performance to determine the total percentage earned. The number of Shares earned will then be determined by taking the number of Performance-Based Restricted Shares awarded, stated in Section 2.b., multiplied by the total percentage earned. Any resulting partial shares will be rounded to the nearest whole share.

3 v. EPS and average ROE shall be determined based on generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and may be adjusted for extraordinary items as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors. Extraordinary items shall mean extraordinary, unusual and/or non-recurring items, including but not limited to: restructuring or restructuring-related charges, gains or losses attributable to the disposition of a business or major asset, resolution and/or settlement of litigation and other legal proceedings or any other such income or expense related item that the Board of Directors has determined to be of an unusual or extraordinary nature. vi. Unless previously forfeited or transferred on account of your death, Total Disability or a Change in Control, the Restriction Period will lapse with respect to the applicable Performance-Based Restricted Shares earned, as described in Sections 2.b (i) – (v), and Cass shall deliver the Shares to you effective on the Vesting Date, which is three years from the date of grant, subject to the determination of performance results by the Board of Directors. In the event delays are experienced in determining the performance results beyond the Vesting Date, once such results are in fact determined, vesting shall occur retroactively back to the Vesting Date. Cass shall deliver the Shares to you as described in Section 3 of this Award Agreement. 3. Issuance of Restricted Shares a. Time-Based Restricted Shares shall be held in book entry form on the books of Cass’s depository (or another institution specified by Cass) subject to the restrictions of this Award Agreement until such time the Shares have Vested, as explained in Section 2.a. or vest as a result of your death, Total Disability or a Change in Control, as explained in Section 4.a. As soon as practicable following the lapse of restriction provisions and subsequent Vesting of Shares, Cass shall give transfer instructions to the institution holding the Shares in book entry form so that the Shares are transferred to you or your designated beneficiary, if applicable, without restriction. You hereby (i) acknowledge that Shares may be held in book entry form on the books of Cass’s depository (or another institution specified by Cass), (ii) irrevocably authorize Cass to take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to effect a transfer or cancellation of the record ownership of any such Unvested Shares that are forfeited in accordance with this Award Agreement, (iii) agree to take such other actions as Cass may reasonably request to accomplish the forfeiture of any Unvested Shares that are forfeited under this Award Agreement, and (iv) authorize Cass to cause such Shares to be cancelled or transferred in the event they are forfeited pursuant to this Award Agreement. For the purposes of this Award Agreement, “Unvested Shares” shall mean these shares that were not yet vested pursuant to the terms of this Award Agreement. b. Performance-Based Restricted Shares shall not be issued until such time the Performance Period has ended and the Board of Directors have determined the performance results and number of shares earned, as described in Section 2.b (2.b.i)

4 – (2.b.v). As soon as practicable following the determination of results, lapse of restrictions and subsequent vesting of Shares, Cass shall provide instructions to the depository institution (or other institution specified by Cass) to issue to recipient Shares earned in book entry form without restriction. The delivery of Shares in the event of a Death, Total Disability or a Change of Control is set forth in Section 4 below. 4. Effect of Death, Total Disability or Change of Control. a. Time-Based Restricted Shares. If you die while in the employment or service of Cass or its Subsidiaries, the Restriction Period will lapse with respect to all outstanding Time-Based Restricted Shares and Cass shall deliver the Shares subject to this Award Agreement to your Designated Beneficiary or as provided in Section 6.e. if a Beneficiary has not been designated, has died or cannot be located. Subsequently, such Shares shall not be subject to forfeiture after your death. If you become Totally Disabled or a Change of Control occurs, that results in termination of service, while you are employed by or in the service of Cass or its Subsidiaries, the Restriction Period will lapse with respect to all outstanding Time-Based Restricted Shares and Cass shall deliver the Shares subject to this Award Agreement to you. Subsequently, such Shares shall not be subject to forfeiture after the occurrence of your Total Disability or a Change of Control occurs, that results in termination of service and such shares shall be delivered in the same manner as provided in this Section 2. b. Performance-Based Restricted Shares. If you die or become Totally Disabled while in the employment or service of Cass or its Subsidiaries, all outstanding Performance-Based Restricted Shares shall vest in accordance with the normal terms of this Award Agreement as described in Section 2.b. In the case of your death Cass shall deliver the Shares that have vested to your Designated Beneficiary or as provided in Section 6.e. if a Beneficiary has not been designated, has died or cannot be located. If a Change in Control occurs that results in termination of employment during the Performance Period, all outstanding Performance-Based Restricted Shares will immediately vest and restrictions shall lapse at the Target Performance level and Cass shall deliver the shares to the recipient as explained in Section 3.b. as if the Restriction Period has ended. 5. Termination of Employment. If your employment or service with Cass or any of its Subsidiaries terminates, as described in Section 7, prior to the vesting of Shares in accordance with Section 2 other than by reason of your death, Total Disability, after a Change of Control or Normal Retirement, as described in Section 9, you shall forfeit all such Shares. 6. Restrictions. In association with the other terms of this Agreement and in accordance with the Plan, the Shares shall be subject to the following restrictions: a. Neither (i) the Shares or any interest in them, (ii) the right to vote the Shares, (iii) the right to receive dividends on the Shares, or (iv) any other rights under this Agreement may be sold, transferred, donated, exchanged, pledged, hypothecated, assigned, or otherwise transferred, alienated or encumbered, by operation of law or

5 otherwise, until (and then only to the extent of) the Shares are delivered to you or, in the event of your death, your Designated Beneficiary or Beneficiaries or testamentary transferee or transferees. b. You shall have, with respect to the Time-Based Restricted Shares, all of the rights of a holder of Shares, including the right to vote such Shares and to earn any cash dividends thereon, except as otherwise provided in the Plan. Additional Shares of Cass common stock resulting from adjustments under Section XII of the Plan with respect to Shares subject to this Agreement shall be treated as additional Shares subject to the same restrictions and other terms of this Award Agreement. Cash dividends accrued on Unvested Shares shall be retained by Cass until the underlying Shares have vested and restrictions lifted and shall be payable subject to fulfillment of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Such dividends are taxable to you as compensation income, and not dividend income, and are deductible by Cass or its Subsidiaries for income tax purposes as compensation income. c. You shall have, with respect to the Performance-Based Shares, none of the rights of a holder of Shares, including the right to vote such Shares and to earn any cash dividends thereon, until such shares have vested and restrictions lifted. Additional Shares of Cass common stock resulting from adjustments under Section XII of the Plan with respect to Shares subject to this Agreement shall be treated as additional Shares subject to the same restrictions and other terms of this Agreement. d. During your lifetime, Shares shall only be delivered to you. Any Shares transferred in accordance with this Agreement shall continue to be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Any transfer permitted under this Agreement shall be promptly reported in writing to Cass’s Secretary. e. You may designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries (“Designated Beneficiary or Beneficiaries”) on the Designated Beneficiary form attached to this Agreement to receive Shares which vest on your death. If you do not complete the Beneficiary Designation form or if, after your death, your Designated Beneficiary or Beneficiaries has or have died or cannot be located, Shares which become vested on your death shall be transferred in accordance with your will or, if you have no will, in accordance with the terms of the Plan. 7. Effect of Other Causes of Termination of Employment. If your employment or service with Cass or any of its Subsidiaries terminates, as described in this Section 7, prior to the vesting of Shares in accordance with Section 2, you shall forfeit all such Unvested Shares: a. You voluntarily or involuntarily terminate employment without eligibility for Normal Retirement, as described in Section 9 of this Award Agreement. b. Your employment or service by a Subsidiary of Cass shall be considered terminated on the date that the company for which you are employed or serve is no longer a Subsidiary of Cass, for reasons other than a Change in Control.

6 c. Notwithstanding anything in this Award Agreement to the contrary, if your employment or service with Cass or a Subsidiary is Terminated for Cause, you shall forfeit all Shares for no consideration, including any Shares that have vested in accordance with Section 2. 8. Transfer of Employment; Leave of Absence. A transfer of your employment from Cass to a Subsidiary or vice versa, or from one Subsidiary to another, without an intervening period, shall not be deemed a termination of employment. If you are granted an authorized leave of absence, you shall be deemed to have remained in the employ or service of the company by which you are employed or of which you serve as a director during such leave of absence. 9. Normal Retirement. Provided you complete one of service after the Date of Grant under this Award Agreement or the Committee waives this one-year service requirement consistent with the limitations set forth in Section 5.4 of the Plan, you shall be eligible for normal retirement upon your voluntary resignation after reaching age 65 with a minimum of 5 years of service (“Normal Retirement”). Upon satisfying the age and service conditions for Normal Retirement, all Shares granted in this Award Agreement shall no longer be subject to forfeiture, though such Shares shall not become fully transferrable until the Vesting Date at the end of the applicable Restriction Period or Performance Period described in Section 2 of this Award Agreement. 10. Tax Matters. a. Federal Income tax withholding (and state and local income tax withholding, if applicable) may be required with respect to the taxation of income realized when restrictions are removed from the Shares or in the event you make the Section 83(b) election described in Section 22. You agree to deliver to Cass only the amounts the Committee determines should be withheld, provided, however, that you may pay a portion or all of such withholding taxes by electing to have (i) Cass withhold a portion of the Shares that would otherwise be delivered to you or (ii) you can deliver to Cass Shares that you have owned for at least six months, in either case, having a Fair Market Value (as of the date that the amount of taxes is to be withheld) in the sum of the amount to be withheld plus reasonable expenses of selling such Shares, and provided further that your election shall be irrevocable and subject to the approval of the Committee. b. You should consult with your tax advisor regarding the tax consequences of receiving shares and making the Section 83(b) election described in Section 22. 11. Employment and Service. Nothing contained in this Award Agreement or the Plan shall confer any right to continue in the employ or other service of Cass or any of its Subsidiaries or limit in any way the right of Cass or a Subsidiary to change your compensation or other benefits or to terminate your employment or other service with or without Cause. 12. Listing: Securities Considerations. Despite anything else in this Award Agreement, if at any time the Board determines, in its sole discretion, the listing, registration or qualification (or an updating of any such document) of the Shares issuable under this Agreement is necessary on any securities exchange or under any federal or state securities

7 or blue sky law, or that the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with the issuance of the Shares, or the removal of any restrictions imposed on such Shares, such Shares shall not be issued, in whole or in part, or the restrictions on the Shares removed, unless such listing, registration, qualifications, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to Cass. 13. Clawback Policy. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, in the event Cass materially restates its financial statements, the Compensation Committee shall have the discretion to rescind, revoke, adjust or otherwise modify the award. Such action will be taken consistent with the Compensation Committee’s governing Clawback Policy, a copy of which is available from the Secretary of Cass upon request. For the avoidance of doubt, the Compensation Committee may take such action against any Participant regardless of whether the Participant is a current or former Executive Officer. 14. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding on the parties to this Agreement and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives and successors. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, whenever the term “you” is used in any provision of this Agreement under circumstances where the provision appropriately applies to the heirs, executors, administrators, or legal representatives to whom Shares may be transferred by the Beneficiary Designation, will or the laws of descent and distribution, the term “you” shall be deemed to include such person or persons. 15. Plan Provisions Govern. a. This award is subject to the terms, conditions, restrictions and other provisions of the Plan as if all those provisions were set forth in their entirety in this Award Agreement. If any provision of this Award Agreement conflicts with a provision of the Plan, the Plan provision shall control. b. You acknowledge that a copy of the Plan and a prospectus summarizing the Plan was distributed or made available to you and that you were advised to review that material before entering into this Award Agreement.

Severability. If any term or provision of this Award Agreement, or the application of this Award Agreement to any person or circumstance, shall at any time or to any extent be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect as written, both parties intend for any court construing this Award Agreement to modify or limit that provision so as to render it valid and enforceable to the fullest extent allowed by law. Any provision that is not susceptible of reformation shall be ignored so as to not affect any other term or provision of this Award Agreement, and the remainder of this Award Agreement, or the application of that term or provision to persons of circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby and each term and provision of this Award Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. 18.

Any oral or written agreements, representations, warranties, written inducements, or other communications with respect to the subject matter contained in this Award Agreement made before the signing of this Award Agreement shall be void and ineffective for all purposes. 19.

(“Cass” or “the Company”) or one of its Subsidiaries, you are granted an Award of Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) under the Cass Information Systems, Inc. 2023 Omnibus Stock and Performance Compensation Plan (the “Plan”). Each RSU under this Award is equivalent to one share of Cass common stock (“Stock”), $0.50 par value per share. This Award Agreement is subject to your acceptance as provided in Section 1 below and the terms and conditions that follow in this Award Agreement. The date of the Award evidenced by this Award Agreement (the “Date of Grant”) is set forth above. The terms and conditions of this Award Agreement, including non-standard provisions permitted by the Plan, are set forth below. 1. Acceptance of Award. This Award Agreement is to be accepted by signing your name on the signature page of this Award Agreement and causing it to be delivered to the Secretary of Cass, 12444 Powerscourt Drive, Suite 550, St. Louis, MO 63131, before 4:30 p.m. Central time on the 30th day after the Date of Grant. If the Secretary does not receive your properly signed copy of this Award Agreement before the time and date specified in the previous sentence, then, despite anything else provided in this Award Agreement, this Award will be void as if it was never awarded to you and will be of no effect. Your signing and timely delivering of this Award Agreement will evidence your acceptance on the terms and conditions stated in this Award Agreement. 2. Vesting and Forfeiture of RSUs. a. Vesting of Time-Based RSUs. With respect to forty percent (40%) of your Award covering ___ RSUs (“Time-Based RSUs”) will fully vest on ______________ (“Vesting Date”), which is three years from the date of grant (“Restriction Period”); provided you remain employed through the Vesting Date. The Time-Based RSUs will be settled as explained in Section 3 of this Award Agreement. b. Vesting of Performance-Based RSUs. With respect to sixty percent (60%) of your Award covering ___ Shares, (“Performance-Based RSUs”), such RSUs will vest on _______________ (“Vesting Date”) in an amount, if any, based on the achievement of the performance goals set forth in Section 2.b.(i)-(iv) below. Any Performance-Based RSUs which do not become vested because of the failure to achieve these performance goals for the Performance Period shall be forfeited.

2 i. The percentage of Performance-Based RSUs shall vest based on achievement of earnings per share (“EPS”) and return on equity (“ROE”) goals over the Performance Period described below, as indicated in the table below. Each factor will be weighted 50% in determining the total percentage of RSUs earned. Performance Period: Beginning ____________________ (Three Years) Ending ____________________ 50% Threshold 100% Target 150% Maximum Earnings per Share (EPS) $____ $____ $____ Return on Equity (ROE) __% __% __% ii. The percentage earned related to EPS goals shall be determined based on the cumulative EPS for the 3 year Performance Period. 100% will be earned if the Company achieves target performance, 50% shall be earned if the Company achieves threshold performance and a maximum of 150% of the RSUs shall be earned if the Company achieves maximum or better performance. Performance that falls between threshold and target or target and maximum performance shall be interpolated between the respective percentages. Any performance that falls below threshold will result in 0% earned attributable to EPS performance. iii. The percentage earned related to ROE goals shall be based on the average ROE measured by calculating the average of each of the calendar year’s annual average ROE calculations over the 3 year Performance Period. 100% will be earned if the Company achieves target performance, 50% shall be earned if the Company achieves threshold performance and a maximum of 150% of the RSUs will be earned if the Company achieves maximum or better performance. Performance that falls between threshold and target or target and maximum performance shall be interpolated between the respective percentages. Any performance that falls below threshold will result in 0% earned attributable to ROE performance. iv. A weighting of 50% will be applied to each of the percentages earned related to EPS and ROE performance to determine the total percentage earned. The number of RSUs earned will then be determined by taking the number of Performance-Based RSUs awarded, stated in Section 2.b., multiplied by the total percentage earned. Any resulting partial RSUs will be rounded to the nearest whole share. v. EPS and average ROE shall be determined based on generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and may be adjusted for extraordinary

3 items as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors. Extraordinary items shall mean extraordinary, unusual and/or non-recurring items, including but not limited to: restructuring or restructuring-related charges, gains or losses attributable to the disposition of a business or major asset, resolution and/or settlement of litigation and other legal proceedings or any other such income or expense related item that the Board of Directors has determined to be of an unusual or extraordinary nature. vi. Unless previously forfeited or transferred on account of your death, Total Disability or a Change in Control, the Restriction Period will end with respect to the applicable Performance-Based RSUs earned, as described in Sections 2.b (i) – (v), and Cass shall deem the Performance-Based RSUs fully vested effective on the Vesting Date, which is three years from the date of grant, subject to the determination of performance results by the Board of Directors. In the event delays are experienced in determining the performance results beyond the Vesting Date, once such results are in fact determined, vesting shall occur retroactively back to the Vesting Date. Cass shall settle the RSUs as described in Section 3 of this Award Agreement. 3. Issuance of Shares. RSUs shall mean a nonvoting unit of measurement which is deemed for bookkeeping purposes to be equivalent to one outstanding share of Cass common stock, $0.50 par value per share, solely for purposes of the Plan or this Award Agreement. The RSUs shall be used solely as a device for the determination of the number of shares of Stock to be issued as soon as reasonably practicable following your separation from service as an Employee. The RSUs shall not be treated as property or as a trust of any kind. RSUs shall be a bookkeeping entry subject to the restrictions of this Award Agreement until such time the RSUs have vested, as explained in Section 2. For purposes of this Award Agreement, “separation from service” shall have the meaning set forth under Section 409A of the Code. Any Performance-Based RSUs shall not be settled until such time that the Performance Period has ended and the Board of Directors have determined the performance results and number of RSUs earned, as described in Section 2.b. The delivery of shares of Stock in settlement of any RSUs in the event of a Death, Total Disability or a Change of Control is set forth in Section 4 below. 4. Effect of Death, Total Disability or Change of Control. a. Time-Based RSUs. If you die while in the service of Cass or its Subsidiaries, your Time-Based RSUs shall become immediately vested and Cass shall deliver the shares of Stock in settlement of the Time-Based RSUs subject to this Award Agreement to your Designated Beneficiary, or as provided in Section 5.d. if a Beneficiary has not been designated, has died, or cannot be located. Subsequently, such RSUs shall not be subject to forfeiture after your death. If you become Totally Disabled or a Change of Control occurs, that results in termination of service, while you are in the service of Cass or its Subsidiaries, your Time-Based RSUs shall become immediately vested and Cass shall deliver the shares of Stock in settlement

4 of the Time-Based RSUs subject to this Award Agreement to you. Subsequently, such Stock shall not be subject to forfeiture after the occurrence of your Total Disability or a Change of Control occurs that results in termination of service and such Stock shall be delivered in the same manner as provided in this Section 4. b. Performance-Based RSUs. If you die or become Totally Disabled while in the employment or service of Cass or its Subsidiaries, all outstanding Performance- Based RSUs shall vest in accordance with the normal terms of this Award Agreement as described in Section 2.b. In the case of your death, Cass shall deliver shares of Stock with respect to any RSUs that have vested to your Designated Beneficiary or as provided in Section 6.e. if a Beneficiary has not been designated, has died or cannot be located. If a Change in Control occurs that results in termination of employment during the Performance Period, all outstanding Performance-Based RSUs will immediately vest at the Target Performance level and Cass shall deliver any shares of Stock with respect to the RSUs to the recipient as explained in Section 3 as if the Restriction Period has ended. 5. Restrictions. In association with the other terms of this Award Agreement and in accordance with the Plan and the RSUs shall be subject to the following restrictions: a. The RSU or any interest in them or any other rights under this Award Agreement may not be sold, transferred, donated, exchanged, pledged, hypothecated, assigned, or otherwise transferred, alienated or encumbered, by operation of law or otherwise, until (and then only to the extent of) the shares of Stock are delivered to you or, in the event of your death, your Designated Beneficiary or Beneficiaries or testamentary transferee or transferees. b. You shall have, with respect to RSUs, none of the rights of a holder of Stock, including the right to vote. Notwithstanding the preceding, dividends paid on Stock which are represented by RSUs will be accrued as dividend equivalents, but not paid, during the Deferral Period. Such accrued dividend equivalents will be paid in cash to you at the time the Stock, related to the vesting of RSUs, is paid to you. c. During your lifetime, Stock shall only be delivered to you. Any Stock transferred in accordance with this Award Agreement shall continue to be subject to the terms and conditions of this Award Agreement. Any transfer permitted under this Award Agreement shall be promptly reported in writing to Cass’s Secretary. d. You may designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries (“Designated Beneficiary or Beneficiaries”) on the Designated Beneficiary form attached to this Award Agreement to receive Stock for RSUs which vest on your death. If you do not complete the Beneficiary Designation form or if, after your death, your Designated Beneficiary or Beneficiaries has or have died or cannot be located, Stock for RSUs which become vested on your death shall be transferred in accordance with your will or, if you have no will, in accordance with the terms of the Plan.

5 6. Effect of Termination for Cause. Notwithstanding anything in this Award Agreement to the contrary, if your service with Cass or a Subsidiary is Terminated for Cause, you will immediately forfeit all outstanding RSUs. 7. Transfer of Service; Leave of Absence. A transfer of your employment from Cass to a Subsidiary or vice versa, or from one Subsidiary to another, without an intervening period, shall not be deemed a termination of employment. If you are granted an authorized leave of absence, you shall be deemed to have remained in the employ or service of the company by which you are employed or of which you serve as a director during such leave of absence. 8. Tax Matters. a. This Award Agreement is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code or an exemption thereunder and shall be construed and interpreted in a manner that is consistent with the requirements for avoiding additional taxes or penalties under Section 409A of the Code.

You should consult with your tax advisor regarding the tax consequences of receiving RSUs. 9. No Right to Continued Service. Nothing contained in this Award Agreement or the Plan shall confer any right to continue in the service of Cass or any of its Subsidiaries or limit in any way the right of Cass or a Subsidiary to change your compensation or other benefits or to terminate your service with or without Cause. 10. Listing: Securities Considerations. Despite anything else in this Award Agreement, if at any time the Board determines, in its sole discretion, the listing, registration or qualification (or an updating of any such document) of the shares of Stock issuable under this Award Agreement is necessary on any securities exchange or under any federal or state securities or blue sky law, or that the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with the issuance of the shares of Stock, or the removal of any restrictions imposed on the RSUs underlying such shares of Stock, such shares of Stock shall not be issued, in whole or in part, or the restrictions on the underlying RSUs removed, unless such listing, registration, qualifications, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to Cass. 11. Clawback Policy. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, in the event Cass materially restates its financial statements, the result of which is that the Award described herein would have been lesser if calculated based on restated results, the Compensation Committee shall have the discretion to rescind, revoke, adjust or otherwise modify the Award. Such action will be taken consistent with the Compensation Committee’s

6 governing Clawback Policy, a copy of which is available from the Secretary of Cass upon request.

You agree to deliver to Cass only the amounts the Committee determines should be withheld, provided, however, that you may pay a portion or all of such withholding taxes by electing to have (i) Cass withhold a portion of the Shares that would otherwise be delivered to you or (ii) you can deliver to Cass Shares that you have owned for at least six months, in either case, having a Fair Market Value (as of the date that the amount of taxes is to be withheld) in the sum of the amount to be withheld plus reasonable expenses of selling such

4 Shares, and provided further that your election shall be irrevocable and subject to the approval of the Committee. b. You should consult with your tax advisor regarding the tax consequences of receiving shares and making the Section 83(b) election described in Section 21. 10. No Right to Continued Service.

OR CASS INFORMATION SYSTEMS, INC. AMENDED AND RESTATED OMNIBUS STOCK AND PERFORMANCE COMPENSATION PLAN EXHIBIT A As described in Section 2 of this Agreement, the vesting schedule applicable to the Shares subject to this Agreement shall be as follows: 1 Year Vesting Restrictions shall lapse with respect to all Shares and such Shares shall be delivered one year from the Date of Grant.

Exhibit 10.4 Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement Form 2023 Omnibus Plan DIRECTOR.docx CASS INFORMATION SYSTEMS, INC. 2023 OMNIBUS STOCK AND PERFORMANCE COMPENSATION PLAN RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT (RSU) AWARD AGREEMENT Participant Name: Date of Grant: Number of Restricted Stock Units subject to this Award: We are pleased to inform you that, as a director of Cass Information Systems, Inc. (“Cass” or “the Company”) or one of its Subsidiaries, you are granted an Award of Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) under the Cass Information Systems, Inc. 2023 Omnibus Stock and Performance Compensation Plan (the “Plan”). Each RSU under this Award is equivalent to one share of Cass common stock (“Stock”), $0.50 par value per share. This Award Agreement is subject to your acceptance as provided in Section 1 below and the terms and conditions that follow in this Award Agreement. The date of the Award evidenced by this Award Agreement (the “Date of Grant”) is set forth above. The terms and conditions of this Award Agreement, including non-standard provisions permitted by the Plan, are set forth below. 1. Acceptance of Award. This Award Agreement is to be accepted by signing your name on the signature page of this Award Agreement and causing it to be delivered to the Secretary of Cass, 12444 Powerscourt Drive, Suite 550, St. Louis, MO 63131, before 4:30 p.m. Central time on the 30th day after the Date of Grant. If the Secretary does not receive your properly signed copy of this Award Agreement before the time and date specified in the previous sentence, then, despite anything else provided in this Award Agreement, this Award will be void as if it was never awarded to you and will be of no effect. Your signing and timely delivering of this Award Agreement will evidence your acceptance on the terms and conditions stated in this Award Agreement. 2. Deferral Election. Consistent with your prior nonrevocable deferral election, your Award will vest and be settled in shares of Stock only upon your separation from service as a Director (the “Deferral Period”). Cass shall deliver the Stock to you as explained in Section 3 of this Award Agreement. 3. Issuance of Shares. RSUs shall mean a nonvoting unit of measurement which is deemed for bookkeeping purposes to be equivalent to one outstanding share of Cass common stock, $0.50 par value per share, solely for purposes of the Plan or this Award Agreement. The RSUs shall be used solely as a device for the determination of the number of shares of Stock to be issued as soon as reasonably practicable following your separation from service as a Director. The RSUs shall not be treated as property or as a trust of any kind. RSUs shall be a bookkeeping entry subject to the restrictions of this Award Agreement until such time the RSUs have vested, as explained in Section 2. For purposes of this Award Agreement, “separation from service” shall have the meaning set forth under Section 409A of the Code.

2 4. Effect of Death, Total Disability or Change of Control. If you die while in the service of Cass or its Subsidiaries, your RSUs shall become immediately vested and Cass shall deliver the shares of Stock in settlement of the RSUs subject to this Award Agreement to your Designated Beneficiary, or as provided in Section 5.d. if a Beneficiary has not been designated, has died, or cannot be located. Subsequently, such RSUs shall not be subject to forfeiture after your death. If you become Totally Disabled or a Change of Control occurs, that results in termination of service, while you are in the service of Cass or its Subsidiaries, your RSUs shall become immediately vested and Cass shall deliver the shares of Stock in settlement of the RSUs subject to this Award Agreement to you. Subsequently, such Stock shall not be subject to forfeiture after the occurrence of your Total Disability or a Change of Control occurs that results in termination of service and such Stock shall be delivered in the same manner as provided in this Section 4. 5. Restrictions. In association with the other terms of this Award Agreement and in accordance with the Plan and the RSUs shall be subject to the following restrictions: a. The RSU or any interest in them or any other rights under this Award Agreement may not be sold, transferred, donated, exchanged, pledged, hypothecated, assigned, or otherwise transferred, alienated or encumbered, by operation of law or otherwise, until (and then only to the extent of) the shares of Stock are delivered to you or, in the event of your death, your Designated Beneficiary or Beneficiaries or testamentary transferee or transferees. b. You shall have, with respect to RSUs, none of the rights of a holder of Stock, including the right to vote. Notwithstanding the preceding, dividends paid on Stock which are represented by RSUs will be accrued as dividend equivalents, but not paid, during the Deferral Period. Such accrued dividend equivalents will be paid in cash to you at the time the Stock, related to the vesting of RSUs, is paid to you. c. During your lifetime, Stock shall only be delivered to you. Any Stock transferred in accordance with this Award Agreement shall continue to be subject to the terms and conditions of this Award Agreement. Any transfer permitted under this Award Agreement shall be promptly reported in writing to Cass’s Secretary. d. You may designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries (“Designated Beneficiary or Beneficiaries”) on the Designated Beneficiary form attached to this Award Agreement to receive Stock for RSUs which vest on your death. If you do not complete the Beneficiary Designation form or if, after your death, your Designated Beneficiary or Beneficiaries has or have died or cannot be located, Stock for RSUs which become vested on your death shall be transferred in accordance with your will or, if you have no will, in accordance with the terms of the Plan. 6. Effect of Termination for Cause. Notwithstanding anything in this Award Agreement to the contrary, if your service with Cass or a Subsidiary is Terminated for Cause, you will immediately forfeit all outstanding RSUs.

3 7. Transfer of Service; Leave of Absence. A transfer of your service from Cass to a Subsidiary or vice versa, or from one Subsidiary to another, without an intervening period, shall not be deemed a termination of service. If you are granted an authorized leave of absence, you shall be deemed to have remained in the service of the company of which you serve as a director during such leave of absence. 8. Tax Matters. a. This Award Agreement is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code or an exemption thereunder and shall be construed and interpreted in a manner that is consistent with the requirements for avoiding additional taxes or penalties under Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Cass makes no representations that the payments and benefits provided under this Award Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Code and in no event shall Cass be liable for all or any portion of any taxes, penalties, interest or other expenses that you may incur on account of non-compliance with Section 409A of the Code. b. You should consult with your tax advisor regarding the tax consequences of receiving RSUs. 9. No Right to Continued Service. Nothing contained in this Award Agreement or the Plan shall confer any right to continue in the service of Cass or any of its Subsidiaries or limit in any way the right of Cass or a Subsidiary to change your compensation or other benefits or to terminate your service with or without Cause. 10. Listing: Securities Considerations. Despite anything else in this Award Agreement, if at any time the Board determines, in its sole discretion, the listing, registration or qualification (or an updating of any such document) of the shares of Stock issuable under this Award Agreement is necessary on any securities exchange or under any federal or state securities or blue sky law, or that the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with the issuance of the shares of Stock, or the removal of any restrictions imposed on the RSUs underlying such shares of Stock, such shares of Stock shall not be issued, in whole or in part, or the restrictions on the underlying RSUs removed, unless such listing, registration, qualifications, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to Cass. 11. Clawback Policy. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, in the event Cass materially restates its financial statements, the result of which is that the Award described herein would have been lesser if calculated based on restated results, the Compensation Committee shall have the discretion to rescind, revoke, adjust or otherwise modify the Award. Such action will be taken consistent with the Compensation Committee’s governing Clawback Policy, a copy of which is available from the Secretary of Cass upon request. For the avoidance of doubt, the Compensation Committee may take such action against any Participant regardless of whether the Participant is a current or former Executive Officer.

4 12. Binding Effect. This Award Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding on the parties to this Award Agreement and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives and successors. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, whenever the term “you” is used in any provision of this Award Agreement under circumstances where the provision appropriately applies to the heirs, executors, administrators, or legal representatives to whom Stock related to the vesting of RSUs may be transferred by the Beneficiary Designation, will or the laws of descent and distribution, the term “you” shall be deemed to include such person or persons. 13. Plan Provisions Govern. a. This Award Agreement is subject to the terms, conditions, restrictions and other provisions of the Plan as if all those provisions were set forth in their entirety in this Award Agreement. If any provision of this Award Agreement conflicts with a provision of the Plan, the Plan provision shall control. b. You acknowledge that a copy of the Plan and a prospectus summarizing the Plan was distributed or made available to you and that you were advised to review that material before entering into this Award Agreement.

In the event of litigation arising in connection with this Award Agreement and/or the Plan, the parties hereto agree to submit to the jurisdiction of state and Federal courts located in Missouri. 15. Severability. If any term or provision of this Award Agreement, or the application of this Award Agreement to any person or circumstance, shall at any time or to any extent be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect as written, both parties intend for any court construing this Award Agreement to modify or limit that provision so as to render it valid and enforceable to the fullest extent allowed by law.

5 or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby and each term and provision of this Award Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. 16. Entire Agreement; Modification.

Commitments and Contingencies	6 Months Ended
Commitments and Contingencies	Jun. 30, 2024
Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	Commitments and Contingencies In the normal course of business, the Company is party to activities that contain credit, market and operational risks that are not reflected in whole or in part in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. As more fully described in the Form 10-K, such activities include traditional off-balance sheet credit-related financial instruments. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, commercial letters of credit and standby letters of credit. The Company’s maximum potential exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit, commercial letters of credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amounts of those instruments. Commitments to extend credit and letters of credit are subject to the same underwriting standards as those financial instruments included on the consolidated balance sheets. An allowance for unfunded commitments of $82,000 and $132,000 had been recorded at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. At June 30, 2024, the balances of unfunded commitments, standby and commercial letters of credit were $251.4 million, $13.7 million, and $729,000, respectively. Since some of the financial instruments may expire without being drawn upon, the total amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. On March 19, 2024, the Company filed a claim against Rubicon Technologies, Inc. ("Rubicon") for failed reimbursement of invoices that were processed and paid by the Company on Rubicon's behalf and unpaid fees for Company services that are due for invoice management services and bill pay services, together with interest and penalties related to the foregoing amounts. The Company has a receivable at June 30, 2024 for $8.1 million related to these amounts on the Company's consolidated balance sheet. T
