JOHN R. CIULLA PRESIDENT AND CEO OF WEBSTER has approximately $65 billion in assets, $44 billion in loans, and $53 billion in deposits based on balances as of December 31, 2021 and operates 202 financial centers in the Northeast region. The new headquarters of Webster is in Stamford, Connecticut, and Webster will have a continued multi-campus presence in the greater New York City area and Waterbury, Connecticut. “The completion of the merger with Webster brings the best of our banks together, promising an elevated experience for our clients and colleagues as the financial services industry evolves,” said Executive Chairman Jack L. Kopnisky of the newly combined bank. “We

are also excited to bring together a combined board of directors with a diversity of experiences and backgrounds, which exemplifies our dedication to enhancing long-term value for our shareholders.” In connection with the merger, the Webster Board of Directors appointed seven new directors, all former directors of Sterling: Jack L. Kopnisky, Executive Chairman, Webster Financial Corporation; Mona Aboelnaga Kanaan; John P. Cahill; James J. Landy; Maureen B. Mitchell; Richard L. O’Toole; and William E. Whiston. Both Webster and Sterling clients will continue to bank as they normally do at their existing banking centers and through Webster’s and Sterling’s websites and mobile applications. At the effective time of the merger on January 31, 2022, each share of Sterling common stock was converted into the right to receive 0.4630 of a share of Webster common stock, with Sterling shareholders receiving cash in lieu of fractional shares.

In addition, each share of 6.50% Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A, of Sterling (“Sterling series A preferred stock”) was converted into the right to receive a share of 6.50% Series G Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock of Webster (“Webster series G preferred stock”) at the effective time of the merger. Each outstanding Sterling depositary share representing a 1/40th interest in a share of Sterling series A preferred stock was converted into a Webster depositary share (NYSE: WBS-PrG) representing a 1/40th interest in a share of Webster series G preferred stock. J.P. Morgan Securities, LLC acted as lead financial advisor to Webster and rendered a fairness opinion to the Webster Board. Piper Sandler & Co. also rendered a fairness opinion to the Webster Board. Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz served as legal counsel to Webster. Citigroup Global Markets Inc. acted as lead financial advisor to Sterling and rendered a fairness opinion to the Sterling Board. Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, Inc. also rendered a fairness

Origins Of The Heart-Shaped Chocolate Box Hearts abound on February 14, and few symbols (and gifts) are more widely associated with a holiday than heartshaped boxes of chocolate are with Valentine’s Day. Chocolates became trendy in the mid-19th century when the first chocolate bar was made by British company J.S. Fry & Sons by combining cacao powder with sugar and cacao butter to make a rich, melt-in-your-mouth treat that was markedly different than the gritty and greasy drinking chocolate that was losing popularity

in Europe. Within a few years, competitor Cadbury introduced the first box of chocolates. It was called the “Fancy Box” and it didn’t take long to become wildly popular. The marriage of chocolate and heartshaped boxes seemed a natural progression, but the National Valentine Collectors Association says that heart-shaped boxes actually predate chocolate boxes. Various heartshaped vessels, including “betrothal pendants” and silver boxes in the shape of hearts, were popularized

a century earlier. There even were heart-shaped porcelain boxes as well as ones for sewing. Having already introduced a chocolate box, Richard Cadbury marketed the first Valentine’s Day box in 1861. It was filled with delicious chocolates, and later could be saved as a keepsake to store special notes or other mementos, according to the North American Packaging Association. Furthermore, the gift fit with Victorian sensibilities in that it was demurely suggestive, NPR reports. Its introduction

coincided perfectly with Valentine’s Day, which also soared in popularity around the same time. Giving chocolate on Valentine’s Day also proved popular in North America. The American chocolate company Hershey’s introduced its Hershey’s Kisses in 1907, and in 1912 the Whitman’s Sampler arrived. In the 1920s, Russell Stover unveiled their own heart-shaped boxes, which today still include the “Red Foil Heart” and the “Secret Lace Heart.” Russell Stover has since become the No. 1

boxed chocolate brand in the United States. Today, more than 36 million heart-shaped boxes holding 58 million pounds of chocolate are

sold each year, reports the education resource SoftSchools. They have become a quintessential symbol of Valentine’s Day celebrations.

Tricks To Keep Floral Arrangements Fresh Who doesn’t enjoy receiving a fresh bouquet of flowers on a special occasion? Flowers traditionally are given for Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, anniversaries, and other special events. While a beautiful bouquet can make a lovely gift, fresh flowers have finite lasting power. Recipients of floral arrangements need not fret. Various strategies can help prolong the life of freshly cut flowers. Florists employ certain tricks to keep cut flowers fresh longer. In fact, that’s a person’s best bet to keep cut flowers fresh — purchasing arrangements from knowledgeable florists who have done their part to ensure flower longevity.

it: making a fresh cut in the trunk of the tree. The same concept applies to floral arrangements. Use a sharp scissor or pruning shears to cut about one inch from the bottom of each stem at a 45-degree angle. Continue this process every three days or so. The 45-degree angle prevents the stem from squishing during the cut and enables it to absorb more water.

Get Them In Water Quickly Place the flowers in a vase or other vessel with water promptly after making the cuts. Some florists like to cut the stems under water to prevent air bubbles from forming in the stems. Choose an arrangement first, then cut and place Here are some the flowers in water additional strategies to quickly. This gives fresh arrangements a good consider. chance to last awhile. Make Fresh Cuts Monitor Water In Stems Temperature Think back to the last The temperature of time you purchased a fresh Christmas tree. What the water in the vase is the key to ensuring it should coordinate with gets enough water while the flowers on display. Do on display? You guessed not use hot water or the

stems will cook. Room temperature is best for most flowers, except for blooms from bulbs that flower during cooler months, such as tulips and daffodils. They’ll be more likely to thrive in cooler water, according to Consumer Reports. Chill Your Arrangement The experts at FTD by Design tested various theories for keeping floral arrangements fresh, including adding aspirin to the water or using sugar or concoctions that contain vodka. Sugar and vinegar served as a runner-up for long-lasting blooms, but the best solution for prolonging the flowers was putting the arrangement in the refrigerator each night for roughly eight hours. Prune The Foliage Before placing cut flowers in a vase, remove extra leaves at the base of the stems that will fall underneath the water line. This helps to limit bacteria growth in the water and cuts back on foul odors. Plus,

removing foliage focuses to cut flowers, helping flowers’ energy on the arrangements thrive in main blooms rather than any home. the leaves. These steps can add life

Notable Plays In Recent Super Bowl History As the annual championship game of the National Football League, the Super Bowl is one of the world’s most watched events every year. And for good reason, as the game is never short on dramatic moments. The following are a handful of the many

notable plays in the recent history of the Super Bowl. • Malcolm Butler’s interception, Super Bowl XLIX, February 1, 2015: An epic battle between the reigning Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots effectively ended when one of the most questionable play calls in NFL history resulted in a goal-line interception by Patriots cornerback Malcolm Butler. With just 26 seconds to go and trailing 28-24, Seattle decided to pass the ball from New England’s 1-yard line. The more conventional play call would have been to hand the ball off to running back Marshawn Lynch, who had already scored a touchdown and run for more than 100

yards in the game. But Seattle chose to pass, and Russell Wilson’s throw was intercepted, resulting in the Patriots winning their first Super Bowl in a decade. • David Tyree’s catch, Super Bowl XLII, February 3, 2008: It’s fitting that this Super Bowl is widely regarded as one of the greatest upsets in Super Bowl history, as it also featured one of the most unlikely heroes in the sport’s history. With his team trailing the New England Patriots 14-10 late in the fourth quarter, New York Giant David Tyree, a little-used wide receiver and special teams stalwart, made a miraculous catch on third down, leaping into the air and pinning the ball

to his helmet. That 32-yard reception kept the eventual game-winning drive alive. The loss would mark the Patriots’ only defeat of the season. • Mike Jones’ tackle, Super Bowl XXXIV, January 30, 2000: A thrilling affair that featured a 16-point comeback from the Tennessee Titans, Super Bowl XXXIV came down to the final play of the game. With just six seconds remaining, the Titans trailed the St. Louis Rams 23-16 but had the ball at the Rams’ 10-yard line. Titans quarterback Steve McNair completed a pass to wide receiver Kevin Dyson, only to see Rams linebacker Mike Jones tackle Dyson at the 1-yard line as time expired, stopping another

Titans comeback and earning the Rams their first Super Bowl victory. • James White’s touchdown run, Super Bowl LI, February 5, 2017: While the moment itself may not be as amazing as other Super Bowl plays, it remains among the most memorable for what it represented. Trailing the Atlanta Falcons 28-3 midway through the third quarter, the New England Patriots were written off by viewers across the globe. But those eulogies proved premature, as the Patriots orchestrated the largest comeback in Super Bowl history, culminating with White’s 2-yard overtime scamper into the end zone to seal the victory for New England.

SHOW HOMELESS ANIMALS YOUR LOVE

Homeless dogs and cats have so much unconditional love to share… and your love can save their lives! Show how much you love them with a gift today. Your generosity ensures all the animals at our no-kill campus get the care they need while waiting for loving homes to call their own!

Adopt-a-Family Campaign: Help FCA spread holiday cheer to Long Island’s most vulnerable families. This program will start up again in October of 2022 with a list of families to adopt. For more information, please visit www. fcali.org or contact Craig Pinto, Chief Development Ofﬁcer at (516) 746-0350 x4320.
