We are proud of our long tradition of service and leadership in the legal profession and the communities in which we live and work.

We look forward to continuing our legacy of growth and achievement. Further, we are committed to fostering an enjoyable and rewarding working environment that encourages initiative, innovation, teamwork, and loyalty. We are a community of unique individuals – not just in our client base of Fortune 500 companies, small businesses, emerging organizations, and individuals, but also in our attorneys whose collective talents and creativity draw from a broad cross-section of backgrounds and outlooks. In 2025, we advanced our diversity, inclusion, and belonging, and environmental efforts through several initiatives of which we are extremely proud.

The following pages highlight our dedication to these specific areas, starting with pro bono service.

Continued Efforts Philanthropy is an important element of Snell & Wilmer’s broader commitment to corporate social responsibility. To this end, we established the Snell & Wilmer Charitable Foundation in 2002 with the goal to make a positive and direct impact on the lives of children in the communities we serve by supporting and enhancing their early education. We achieve this objective through three-year monetary grants, administered through the Arizona Community Foundation, to carefully selected nonprofit organizations in our communities. Since inception, the Snell & Wilmer Charitable Foundation has donated more than $5 million to enhance early education.

Our current grant cycle runs from 2025 to 2027 and includes 22 organizations across our communities. These organizations include AVANCE Dallas (Dallas, TX); Clayton Early Learning (Denver, CO); Special Olympics Nevada (Las Vegas, NV); PUENTE Learning Center (Los Angeles, CA); El Dorado Foundation (Los Cabos, Mexico); Public Media Group (PBS) of Southern California (Orange County, CA); Boys & Girls Club of Central Orange Coast (Orange County, CA); One Step Beyond, Inc.

For the past decade, the firm has joined together in providing gifts to military personnel stationed overseas during the holidays. The firm has supported the Air Force, Army, and Marines. In the last six years, the firm has obtained a wish list, shopped for, and shipped holiday gifts to Marines. The firm also collaborates with the Girl Scouts to ship Girl Scout cookies to troops in the spring.

In addition to the Snell & Wilmer Charitable Foundation, firm attorneys donate thousands of hours of service each year to charitable organizations and philanthropic pursuits. Many, if not most, of our lawyers are active members of charitable boards and often hold leadership positions. Through this leadership, as well as activities spearheaded by local Community Involvement Committees within our offices, our attorneys and staff participated in various community-focused volunteer and fundraising activities throughout 2025, including: For the last 20 years, Magical Builders™, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation founded

by Orange County Office Managing Partner Jon Frank and his wife, has managed the construction and renovation of dozens of charitable facilities throughout the country, including youth and teen centers, athletic fields, domestic abuse shelters, veterans’ centers, day-care facilities, homeless and poverty centers, disability centers, affordable housing hospital family living centers, academic facilities, and other projects. Magical Builders frequently work with Major League Baseball, professional sports teams, athletes, celebrities, other nonprofits, and generous companies and individuals to make a lasting impact on our communities. The organization believes that by improving the lives of children and others in need, we will greatly strengthen our communities.

DIVERSITY, INCLUSION, & BELONGING

Programs and Initiatives We believe that a diverse and inclusive workforce — which values the individual identities and experiences of all lawyers — is essential for our ability to serve our clients, our firm, and our community. The firm’s Diversity, Inclusion, & Belonging (DIB) Committee has been instrumental in spearheading and expanding a variety of programs and initiatives. They include:

First-Gen Forward Our First-Gen Forward initiative supports the firm’s firstgeneration professionals, including attorneys who are the first in their families to obtain a college or law school degree. In addition to providing resources and connections to support their integration and inclusion within the firm, the group partners with community organizations to support and encourage future first-generation professionals to pursue legal careers.

Women’s Initiative Network (WIN) WIN reflects Snell & Wilmer’s commitment to hiring, retaining, and promoting the best attorneys.

This includes efforts to ensure equal opportunity for all attorneys to succeed in our firm. Some firmwide initiatives supported by WIN, and available to all attorneys, include an alternative work arrangement program, focused mentoring based on career objectives, a holistic review and adjustment of an annual bonus target to reflect a ramp down/ramp up of hours during the months before and after an attorney’s parental leave, and a parental resource guide.

to discuss issues of concern that impact the LGBTQ+ community within and outside the firm.

Lawyers of Color (LOC) The LOC affinity group enhances the firm’s commitment to fostering an inclusive work environment based on open communication and mutual respect, enhancing business and professional development, and encouraging initiative, innovation, teamwork, and loyalty for all attorneys. The group provides opportunities for all lawyers to reflect and discuss current issues, which cultivates a supportive community within the firm.

Partnership Pathways Program This program, available to all senior associates and counsel, offers tailored programming and mentorship to promote each attorney’s individual path to partnership at Snell & Wilmer. We provide participants the opportunity to identify key demographics, skills, and traits they would like for their partnership advisor/mentor to possess, which furthers a more authentic and inclusive forum for

Law Firm Antiracism Alliance (LFAA)

SNELL & WILMER

Snell & Wilmer is one of more than 125 founding law firms participating in the LFAA. LFAA’s objective is

to leverage the resources of the private bar, in partnership with legal services organizations, to amplify the voices of communities and individuals oppressed by racism, to better utilize the law as a vehicle for change and to promote racial equity in the law. Snell & Wilmer attorneys are active participants in the legal service projects and standing committees within the LFAA.

The Snell & Wilmer Conversation Series In the wake of the challenging times we face as a nation surrounding socio-economic issues, the firm has come to appreciate the need for, and importance of, listening to others.

Additionally, one of the cornerstones of Snell & Wilmer’s credo is its long tradition of community engagement and leadership. As a result, Snell & Wilmer hosts a speaker series with prominent thought leaders, dedicated to providing a platform for closely examining these critical, evolving issues.

Military The Military Affinity Group recognizes, supports, and empowers attorneys and business professionals who are military veterans, service members, and allies.

FAR Program The FAR Program provides participants with a free Law School Admission Test (LSAT) preparation course as well as reimbursement of LSAC/CAS and law school application fees.

The FAR Program is a holistic pipeline initiative that reflects the firm’s enduring commitment to inclusion and belonging in the workplace and the legal profession. The program is designed to support students from unique backgrounds and experiences as they navigate the LSAT and the law school application process. In addition to test preparation, FAR participants are paired with mentors and take part in professional development workshops.

Marshall-Brennan Constitutional Literacy Project Snell & Wilmer was proud to pilot the Marshall-Brennan Constitutional Literacy Project non-law school chapter program in 2024. The Marshall-Brennan Constitutional Literacy Project is a nationally recognized law related education program that promotes democratic engagement, constitutional literacy, and legal advocacy by placing talented upper-level law students in high schools to teach yearlong courses in constitutional law and oral advocacy. Volunteer lawyers from our Tucson office assisted high school students in learning about constitutional law, analyzing case law, and preparing oral arguments. Students had the opportunity to demonstrate their understanding of constitutional law and refine their oral advocacy skills through participation in a local and national moot court competition. The firm sent two students and one teacher to the national competition in Washington D.C.
