 Cautionary note regarding forward-looking statements  This presentation contains forward-looking statements about Independent Bank Corporation. Statements that are not historical or current facts, including statements about beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements and are based on the information available to, and assumptions and estimates made by, management as of the date hereof. These forward-looking statements cover, among other things, anticipated future revenue and expenses and the future plans and prospects of Independent Bank Corporation. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, and important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated. The COVID-19 pandemic is adversely affecting Independent Bank Corporation, its customers, counterparties, employees, and third-party service providers, and the ultimate extent of the impacts on its business, financial position, results of operations, liquidity, and prospects is uncertain. Continued deterioration in general business and economic conditions or turbulence in domestic or global financial markets could adversely affect Independent Bank Corporation’s revenues and the values of its assets and liabilities, reduce the availability of funding from certain financial institutions, lead to a tightening of credit, and increase stock price volatility. In addition, changes to statutes, regulations, or regulatory policies or practices could affect Independent Bank Corporation in substantial and unpredictable ways. Independent Bank Corporation’s results could also be adversely affected by changes in interest rates; further increases in unemployment rates; deterioration in the credit quality of its loan portfolios or in the value of the collateral securing those loans; deterioration in the value of its investment securities; legal and regulatory developments; litigation; increased competition from both banks and non-banks; changes in the level of tariffs and other trade policies of the United States and its global trading partners; changes in customer behavior and preferences; breaches in data security; failures to safeguard personal information; effects of mergers and acquisitions and related integration; effects of critical accounting policies and judgments; and management’s ability to effectively manage credit risk, market risk, operational risk, compliance risk, strategic risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk and reputation risk. Certain risks and important factors that could affect Independent Bank Corporation's future results are identified in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and other reports filed with the SEC, including among other things under the heading “Risk Factors” in such Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 HighlightsInterest rate sensitivity profile of the loan and securities portfolios, in combination with a low cost core deposit base, positions us as slightly asset sensitive.Net interest income decreased $0.7 million, or 2.3%, in 1Q’21 vs. 4Q’20 due primarily to a $3.0 million decrease in interest income that was partially offset by a $2.3 million decrease in interest expense on deposits. Net interest margin was 3.05% during the first quarter of 2021, compared to 3.63% in the year-ago quarter and 3.12% in the fourth quarter of 2020.  Yields, NIM and Cost of Funds (%)  Net Interest Income ($ in Millions)   Net Interest Margin/Income  16 
 

 Linked Quarter Analysis  17  1Q’21 NIM Changes  Linked Quarter Average Balances and FTE Rates  Yield on average interest-earning assets declined 30 basis points.Yield on PPP round 1 loans decreased 48 basis points due to a decline in fee accretion. Commercial loan yields net of PPP declined 34 basis points compared to the prior quarter. A combination of change in mix and lower yields on new volume loans is the primary driver. Continued growth in liquid assets combined with declining investment yields negatively impacted the net interest margin by 7 basis points (IBD growth 2 bps, investment growth 4 bps, investment yield 1 bps) in Q1’21.Funding costs decreased by 7 basis points (funding cost 0.03%, deferred hedge loss 0.04%) in Q1’21.  1Q’21 Highlights  Q4'20  3.12%        Decline in cost of funds  0.07%  Discount accretion on commercial loans  -0.02%  Accelerated amortization of loss on derivatives   0.16%  Decline in earning asset yields (growth and mix)  -0.29%        Q1'21  3.05% 
 

 Strong Non-interest Income  18  Diverse sources of non-interest income – representing 46.6% of operating revenue in 1Q’21.1Q’21 interchange income of $3.0 million compared to $2.5 million in the prior year quarter. This increase is due to an increase in transaction volume. COVID-19 has adversely impacted service charges on deposits. In addition, we have suspended certain electronic banking fees due to the enhanced need for customers to access this channel.Mortgage banking: $12.8 million in net gains on mortgage loans in 1Q’21 vs. $8.8 million in the year ago quarter. A combination of higher sales volumes and stronger profit margins led to this increase.$509.0 million in mortgage loan originations in 1Q’21 vs. $311.1 million in 1Q’20 and $502.5 million in 4Q’20.1Q’21 mortgage loan servicing includes a $4.6 million ($0.17 per diluted share, after tax) increase in fair value adjustment due to price compared to a dcrease of $5.9 million ($0.21 per diluted share, after tax) in the year ago quarter.       Source: Company documents.  $26.4M  2021 1Q’21 Non-interest Income (millions)  Non-interest Income Trends ($M)  Highlights

 Adoption of CECL   24  Adopted CECL on January 1, 2021 as allowed under the CARES Act extension. CECL day 1 adjustment to the ACL of $11.7 million which was within our disclosed range of $10.5 million to $12.5.Reserve for unfunded lending commitments increased $1.5 million.Retained earnings decreased $10.3 million. Allowance for credit losses (ACL) totaled $46.8 million at March 31, 2021. 1.68% of total portfolio loans 1.83% of total portfolio loans net of PPP loansQ1’21 provision for credit losses was a credit of $0.5 million.CECL Model Details:Discounted cash flow model with fourteen loan segments.Probability of default and loss given default based on long-term average for commercial loans and regression for mortgage and installment loans.Regression uses one year forecast / with immediate reversion to mean driven primarily by unemployment.Unemployment data: median of Bloomberg survey: 6.3% Q1, falls to 5.1% at the end of the one year forecast.Q factors: economic shock, forbearance activity, and loans in high risk industries.   Provision for Credit Losses Detail  Highlights 
 

 2021 Outlook Update  Category  Outlook  Lending  Continued growthLoan payoffs related to the Paycheck Protection Program will make loan growth challenging in 2021. IBCP goal of low (1%) single digit overall loan growth (5% - 7% excluding PPP impact), primarily supported by increases in commercial loans, mortgage loans and consumer loans. This growth forecast also assumes an improving Michigan economy.Q1 Update: Total loans increased $50.5 million (1.85%) in Q1’21. PPP round two loan production of $128.2 million is primarily responsible for the increase in total loans. PPP round one loans decreased $63.8 million due to loan forgiveness from the SBA. Commercial loans net of PPP production was a decrease of $5.6 million.   Net Interest Income  Growth driven primarily by higher average earning assetsIBCP goal of approximately 0.5% increase in net interest income (NII) over 2020. Expect the net interest margin (NIM) to trend lower (0.10% - 0.15%) in 2021 compared to full-year 2020. Primary driver is a reduction in earing asset yield. The forecast assumes no changes in the target federal funds rate in 2021 and long-term interest rates up very slightly over year end 2020 levels. Q1 Update: 1Q’21 net interest income was $0.1 million (0.31%) higher than the prior year quarter. The net interest margin was 3.05% for the quarter down 0.07% from the linked quarter and 0.58% from the prior year quarter. This primary driver of the decrease in the net interest margin is a higher allocation to lower yielding assets (mix), lower yields on new volume loans, lower yields on securities and slower accretion of PPP fees.   Provision for Credit Losses  Steady asset quality metricsVery difficult area to forecast. Future provision levels under CECL will be particularly sensitive to loan growth and mix, projected economic conditions, watch credit levels and loan default volumes. The allowance as a percentage of total loans was at 1.30% at 12/31/20. The initial (effective 1/1/20210) CECL adjustment is now expected to be approximately $10.5 million to $12.5 million. This CECL adjustment is still subject to certain final review procedures that will be completed in 1Q’21. A full year 2021 provision (expense) for credit losses of approximately 0.25% to 0.35% of average total portfolio loans would not be unreasonable.Q1 Update: The impact from our CECL adoption was an increase to our beginning of the year allowance for credit losses of $11.7 million which was within our disclosed range of $10.5 million to 12.5 million. The provision for credit losses was a credit of $0.5 million in the first quarter. If credit quality trends persist it is likely the full year provision for the ACL will be below our forecasted range of 0.25% to 0.35% of average total portfolio loans.   Non-interest Income  IBCP forecasted 2021 quarterly range of $13 million to $16 million with the total for the year down 30% to 35% from 2020 actual of $80.7 millionExpect mortgage loan origination volumes in 2021 to be down by approximately 30%. Expect overall mortgage banking revenues (gain on sale and mortgage loan servicing) to decline in 2020 due to lower volume as well as margin on loans sold. Expect service charges on deposits and interchange income in 2021 to be collectively comparable to 2020 (i.e. a decline in servicing charges on deposits due to lower NSF fees to be largely offset by an increase in interchange income). Q1 Update: Non-interest income totaled $26.4 million in Q1’21. Mortgage loan production as well as net gain on sale of mortgages was stronger than forecasted. Mortgage loans servicing added $5.2 million in non-interest income in Q1’21. The mortgage loan pipeline continues to be strong although refinance activity is slowing down.   Non-interest Expenses  IBCP forecasted 2021 quarterly range of $28.5 to $29.5 million with the total for the year down (4%-6%) from the 2020 actual of $122.4 million.Expect total compensation and employee benefits to be lower in 2021 compared to 2020 due primarily to a reduction in incentive compensation. Most other categories of non-interest expense expected to have small (1% to 2%) increases.Q1 Update: Total non-interest expense was $30.0 million in the first quarter, outside our $28.5 to $29.5 million targeted quarterly range. An increase in the accrual for incentive based compensation due to a higher than anticipated payout level is the primary driver of the increase in expense. Non-interest expense net of compensation and employee benefits is down $0.7 million from the prior year quarter.   Income Taxes  Approximately a 20% effective income tax rate in 2021. This assumes a 21% statutory federal corporate income tax rate during 2021. Q1 Update: Q1’21 actual effective income tax rate of 18.8%.  Share Repurchases  2021 share repurchase authorization at approximately 5% of outstanding shares. Expect total share repurchases in 2021 at the mid-point of this authorization.Q1 Update: The company repurchased 180,667 at an average price of $19.93 in 1Q’21.   25
