Section 5. Additional Agreements Relating to Free Writing Prospectuses. (a) The Company represents and agrees that, other than the final term sheet prepared and filed pursuant to Section 4(a) hereof and the Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses listed on Schedule III hereto, without the prior consent of the Representatives, it has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Securities that would constitute a “free writing prospectus” as defined in Rule 405. (b) Each Underwriter represents and agrees that, without the prior consent of the Company and the Representatives, except for the final term sheet prepared and filed pursuant to Section 4(a) hereof or term sheet containing customary pricing terms, it has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Securities that would constitute an “issuer free writing prospectus”, as defined by Rule 433, or that would otherwise constitute a “free writing prospectus” as defined by Rule 405 that would be required to be filed with the Commission.

13 (c) Any free writing prospectus the use of which has been consented to by the Company and the Representatives (including the final term sheet prepared and filed pursuant to Section 4(a) hereof) is listed on Schedule III hereto. (d) The Company has complied and will comply with the requirements of Rule 433 applicable to any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, including timely filing with the Commission or retention where required and legending. (e) The Company agrees that if at any time following issuance of an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus any event occurred or occurs as a result of which such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus would conflict with the information in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Final Prospectus or would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances then prevailing, not misleading, the Company will give prompt notice thereof to the Representatives and, if requested by the Representatives, will prepare and furnish without charge to each Underwriter an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or other document which will correct such conflict, statement or omission. Section 6. Conditions to the Obligations of the Underwriters. The obligations of the Underwriters to purchase the Securities shall be subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties on the part of the Company contained herein as of the Execution Time and the Closing Date, to the accuracy of the statements of the Company made in any certificates pursuant to the provisions hereof, to the performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder and to the following additional conditions: (a) If filing of the Final Prospectus, or any supplement thereto, is required pursuant to Rule 424(b), the Final Prospectus, and any such supplement, shall have been filed in the manner and within the time period required by Rule 424(b); the final term sheet contemplated by Section 4(a) hereof and any other material required to be filed by the Company pursuant to Rule 433(d) shall have been filed in the manner and within the time period required by Rule 433 and no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement shall have been issued and no proceedings for that purpose shall have been instituted or threatened. (b) The Company shall have furnished to the Representatives the opinion of Alicia G. Powell, Deputy General Counsel and Corporate Secretary of the Company, dated the Closing Date (which opinion may be relied upon by Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP, counsel for the Underwriters, as to matters of Pennsylvania law), to the effect that: (i) the Company is a corporation duly incorporated and is presently subsisting as a corporation under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania with all requisite corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and to conduct its business as described in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, except for such power and authority the absence of which would not have a material adverse effect on the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries taken as a whole or materially and adversely affect its ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement, the

14 Deposit Agreement and the Securities, and the Company is duly registered as a bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended; (ii) PNC Bank is validly organized and existing as a national banking association in good standing under the laws of the United States, with all requisite power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and conduct its business as described in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, except for such power and authority the absence of which would not have a material adverse effect on PNC Bank; (iii) The shares of Preferred Stock represented by the Depositary Shares being delivered to the Underwriters at the Closing Date have been duly authorized and, when issued and delivered as provided in this Agreement, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and will have the rights set forth in the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended to the Closing Date; (iv) The Depositary Shares being delivered to the Underwriters at the Closing Date have been duly authorized and, when issued and delivered against payment therefor as provided in this Agreement, will be duly and validly issued and will be entitled to the rights under, and the benefits of, the Deposit Agreement; (v) all the outstanding shares of capital stock of PNC Bank have been duly and validly authorized and issued and (except as provided in 12 U.S.C. § 55) are fully paid and nonassessable, and all outstanding shares of capital stock of PNC Bank are owned by the Company either directly or through wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company free and clear of any perfected security interest and, to the knowledge of such counsel after due inquiry, any other security interests, claims, liens or encumbrances; (vi) the Company’s authorized equity capitalization, if set forth in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, is as set forth in the Final Prospectus; the Securities conform in all material respects to the description thereof contained in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus; and, if the Securities are to be listed on any stock exchange, authorization therefor has been given, subject to official notice of issuance and evidence of satisfactory distribution, or the Company has filed a preliminary listing application and all required supporting documents with respect to the Securities with such stock exchange and nothing has caused such counsel to believe that the Securities will not be authorized for listing, subject to official notice of issuance and evidence of satisfactory distribution and the satisfaction of other requirements which counsel reasonably believes will be satisfied in due course; (vii) this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company;

15 (viii) neither the issuance and sale of the Securities nor the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement and the Deposit Agreement nor consummation of any other of the transactions contemplated herein nor the fulfillment of the terms hereof will: (A) violate the Articles of Incorporation or By-laws of the Company or PNC Bank or (B) constitute a violation or breach of or default under any material provision of any material indenture or other material agreement or instrument known to such counsel and to which the Company or PNC Bank is a party, or (C) violate any judgment, order or decree known to such counsel applicable to the Company or PNC Bank of any court or federal or state regulatory or governmental agency having jurisdiction over the Company or PNC Bank; except in (B), or (C) above, with respect to violations, breaches or defaults that would not have a material adverse effect on the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries taken as a whole, or PNC Bank; (ix) to the best knowledge of such counsel, there are no actions, suits, proceedings or investigations pending or threatened against the Company or PNC Bank in any court or before or by an arbitrator or governmental authority of a character required to be disclosed in the Registration Statement which are not disclosed in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, and to the best of such counsel’s knowledge, there is no franchise, contract or other document of a character required to be described in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Final Prospectus, or to be filed as an exhibit, which is not described or filed as required; and the statements included or incorporated in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus describing any legal proceedings or material contracts or agreements relating to the Company or any of its subsidiaries fairly summarize such matters in all material respects; (x) the Registration Statement has become effective under the Act; any required filing of the Basic Prospectus, any Preliminary Final Prospectus and the Final Prospectus, and any supplements thereto, pursuant to Rule 424(b) has been made in the manner and within the time period required by Rule 424(b); any required filing of any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus pursuant to Rule 433(d) has been made in the manner and within the time period required by Rule 433; to the best knowledge of such counsel, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, as amended, or any notice under Rule 401(g)(2) that would prevent its use, has been issued, no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or threatened, and the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus and each amendment thereof or supplement thereto made by the Company prior to the date of such opinion as of their respective issue dates (other than the financial statements and other financial information contained or incorporated therein, and that part of the Registration Statement that constitutes the Statement of Eligibility and Qualification of Trustee (Form T-1) under the Trust Indenture Act, as to which such counsel need express no opinion) comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable requirements of that Act and the Exchange Act and the respective rules and

16 regulations thereunder; and nothing has come to the attention of such counsel that has caused such counsel to believe that at the Effective Date the Registration Statement contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; that the Pricing Disclosure Package as of the Applicable Time contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or that the Final Prospectus as of its date and as of the Closing Date included or includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading except that such counsel does not express any opinion or belief as to (a) the financial statements or schedules or other data of a financial nature included or incorporated therein, (b) that part of the Registration Statement that constitutes the Statement of Eligibility and Qualification of Trustee (Form T-1) under the Trust Indenture Act, and (c) regulatory actions of the applicable regulatory authorities that are not otherwise disclosed by such regulatory authorities. In connection with the foregoing, the Underwriters acknowledge and understand that the character of determinations involved in the process of preparing the Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus (including any documents incorporated by reference) are such that such counsel need not assume any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the Registration Statement or the Final Prospectus (including any documents incorporated by reference) except as expressly set forth herein; (xi) no consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or governmental agency or body is required for the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein, except such as have been obtained under the Act and such as may be required under the blue sky laws of any jurisdiction in connection with the purchase and distribution of the Securities by the Underwriters and such other approvals (specified in such opinion) as have been obtained; (xii) the Company is not and, after giving effect to the offering and sale of the Securities and the application of the proceeds thereof as described in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, will not be an “investment company” or an entity “controlled” by an “investment company”, as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act; (xiii) no holders of securities of the Company have rights to the registration of such securities under the Registration Statement; (xiv) the statements set forth in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus under the captions “Description of Preferred Stock” and “Description of Depositary Shares”, insofar as they purport to describe the provisions of the laws and documents referred to therein, fairly summarize in all material respects the matters described therein; and

17 (xv) the Deposit Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company, and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms (except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, readjustment of debt, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, or general equity principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing). In rendering such opinion, such counsel will opine only as to matters involving the application of the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or the United States and may rely (A) as to matters involving the application of laws of any jurisdiction other than the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or the United States, to the extent deemed proper and specified in such opinion, upon the opinion of other counsel of good standing believed to be reliable and who are reasonably satisfactory to counsel for the Underwriters, except that it will not be required that such counsel obtain an opinion of New York counsel as to matters of New York law in order to render such opinion or that such counsel express an opinion as to matters arising under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and matters of federal law arising under the laws of the United States of America, and (B) as to matters of fact, to the extent deemed proper, on certificates or representations of responsible officers of the Company and public officials. References to the Final Prospectus in this paragraph (b) include any supplements thereto at the Closing Date. (c) The Representatives shall have received an opinion of McGuireWoods LLP, counsel to the Company, dated the Closing Date, substantially to the effect that: (i) the discussion set forth in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus under the caption “Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations”, in so far as it relates to matters of U.S. federal income tax laws, subject to the qualifications, exceptions, assumptions and limitations described therein, fairly summarizes in all material respects the matters set forth therein. (d) The Representatives shall have received from Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP, counsel for the Underwriters, an opinion and disclosure letter, dated the Closing Date, with respect to the issuance and sale of the Securities, the Registration Statement, and other related matters as the Representatives may reasonably require, and the Company shall have furnished to such counsel such documents as they reasonably request for the purpose of enabling them to pass upon such matters. (e) The Company shall have furnished to the Representatives a certificate of the Company, signed by the Chairman of the Board, the President, a Vice Chairman of the Board or any Executive Vice President, Senior Vice President, Vice President or Assistant Vice President and the principal financial or accounting officer of the Company, dated the Closing Date, to the effect that the signers of such certificate have carefully examined the

18 Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package, the Final Prospectus, any supplement to the Final Prospectus and this Agreement and that: (i) the representations and warranties of the Company in this Agreement are true and correct on and as of the Closing Date, with the same effect as if made on the Closing Date, and the Company has complied with all the agreements and satisfied all the conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied at or prior to the Closing Date; (ii) no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened; and (iii) since the date of the most recent consolidated financial statements included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement thereto), (i) there has been no material adverse change in the condition (financial or other), earnings, business or properties of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business, (ii) the Company and its subsidiaries have not incurred any liability or obligation that is material to the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and (iii) the Company has not purchased any of its outstanding capital stock except pursuant to its share repurchase programs and employee benefit plans in the ordinary course of business, and has not declared, paid or otherwise made any dividend or distribution of any kind of its capital stock other than ordinary and customary dividends, except, in each case as set forth in or contemplated in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package (exclusive of any supplement thereto) and the Final Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement thereto). (f) PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP shall have furnished to the Representatives letters (which may refer to letters previously delivered to the Representatives), dated as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date, in form and substance satisfactory to the Representatives, confirming that they are independent accountants within the meaning of the Act and the Exchange Act and the respective applicable published rules and regulations thereunder and stating in effect that: (i) in their opinion the audited consolidated financial statements audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP included or incorporated in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus and reported on by them comply in form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Act and the Exchange Act and the related published rules and regulations; (ii) on the basis of a reading of the latest unaudited consolidated financial statements made available by the Company and its subsidiaries;

19 carrying out certain specified procedures (but not an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards) which would not necessarily reveal matters of significance with respect to the comments set forth in such letter; a reading of the minutes of the meetings of the shareholders and directors of the Company and the audit and executive committees thereof and inquiries of certain officials of the Company who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters of the Company and its subsidiaries as to transactions and events subsequent to the date of the most recent audited consolidated financial statements in or incorporated in the Final Prospectus, nothing came to their attention which caused them to believe that: (1) any unaudited consolidated financial statements included or incorporated in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus do not comply in form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and with the published rules and regulations of the Commission with respect to the consolidated financial statements included or incorporated in quarterly reports on Form 10-Q under the Exchange Act; and said unaudited consolidated financial statements are not in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a basis substantially consistent with that of the audited consolidated financial statements included or incorporated in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus; or (2) with respect to the period subsequent to the date of the most recent audited or unaudited consolidated financial statements incorporated in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, there were, at a specified date not more than five business days prior to the date of the letter, any increases in borrowed funds of the Company and its subsidiaries or any changes in the capital stock (defined as each of the individual dollar amounts of preferred stock, common stock, and capital surplus) of the Company or the stockholders’ equity of the Company as compared with the amounts shown on the most recent consolidated balance sheet incorporated in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, or for the period from the date of the most recent audited or unaudited consolidated financial statements incorporated in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus to such specified date there were any decreases, as compared with the corresponding period in the preceding year, in total or per share amounts of consolidated net income of the Company or consolidated net interest income except in all instances for changes or decreases set forth in such letter, in which case the letter shall be accompanied by an explanation by the Company as to the significance thereof unless said explanation is not deemed necessary by the Representatives; (iii) they have performed certain other specified procedures as a result of which they determined that certain information of an accounting, financial or statistical nature (which is limited to accounting, financial or

20 statistical information derived from the general accounting records of the Company and its subsidiaries) set forth in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, including the information included in the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A)” included or incorporated in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and the information included or incorporated in Items 1, 5, 6 and 7 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the most recent fiscal year incorporated in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and Final Prospectus, or incorporated in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and Final Prospectus, agrees with the accounting records of the Company and its subsidiaries, excluding any questions of legal interpretation; and (iv) on the basis of a reading of the pro forma financial statements included or incorporated in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus; inquiries of certain officials of the Company who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters of the Company and its subsidiaries as to the basis for their determination of the pro forma adjustments and whether such pro forma financial statements comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of Rule 11-02 of Regulation S-X; and proving the arithmetic accuracy of the application of the pro forma adjustments to the historical amounts in such pro forma financial statements, nothing came to their attention which caused them to believe that such pro forma financial statements do not comply as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements of Rule 11-02 of Regulation S-X and that the pro forma adjustments have not been properly applied to the historical amounts in the compilation of such pro forma financial statements. References to the Final Prospectus in this paragraph (f) include any supplement thereto at the date of the letter. (g) On or subsequent to the Applicable Time or, if earlier, the dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement (exclusive of any amendment thereof), the Pricing Disclosure Package (exclusive of any supplement thereof) and the Final Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement thereto), there shall not have been (i) any adverse change specified in the letter referred to in paragraph (f) of this Section 6, or (ii) any change, or any development involving a prospective change, in or affecting the business or properties of the Company and its subsidiaries the effect of which, in any case referred to in clause (i) or (ii) above, is, in the judgment of the Representatives, so material and adverse as to make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or the delivery of the Securities as contemplated by the Registration Statement (exclusive of any amendment thereof), the Pricing Disclosure Package (exclusive of any supplement thereto) and the Final Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement thereto).

21 (h) On or subsequent to the Applicable Time, there shall not have been any decrease in the ratings of any of the Company’s debt securities by any “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” (as such term is defined in Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act), or any public announcement that any such organization has under surveillance or review the ratings of any of the Company’s debt securities (other than an announcement with positive implications of a possible upgrading, and no implication of a possible downgrading, of such rating), and if, in any such case, the effect thereof in the judgment of the Representatives makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the purchase of the Securities. (i) Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall have furnished to the Representatives such further information, certificates and documents as the Representatives may reasonably request in connection with the offering of the Securities. If any of the conditions specified in this Section 6 shall not have been fulfilled when and as provided in this Agreement, or if any of the opinions and certificates mentioned above or elsewhere in this Agreement shall not be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters, this Agreement and all obligations of the Underwriters hereunder may be canceled at, or at any time prior to, the Closing Date by the Representatives. Notice of such cancellation shall be given to the Company in writing or by telephone or telegraph confirmed in writing. Section 7. Reimbursement of Underwriters’ Expenses. If the sale of the Securities provided for herein is not consummated because any condition to the obligations of the Underwriters set forth in Section 6 hereof is not satisfied, because of any termination pursuant to Section 10 hereof or because of any refusal, inability or failure on the part of the Company to perform any agreement herein or comply with any provision hereof other than by reason of a default by any of the Underwriters, the Company will reimburse the Underwriters severally upon demand for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) that shall have been incurred by them in connection with the proposed purchase and sale of the Securities. In no event shall the Company be liable to the Underwriters for loss of anticipated profits from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Section 8. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter and their affiliates that participate or are alleged to have participated in the offering of the Securities and each person who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other Federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the registration statement for the registration of the Securities as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, or in the Basic Prospectus, any Preliminary Final Prospectus, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Final Prospectus, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d)

22 or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for use in connection with the preparation thereof, or that part of the Registration Statement constituting the “Statement of Eligibility and Qualification of Trustee” (Form T-1) under the Trust Indenture Act. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have. (b) Each Underwriter severally and not jointly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, its officers who sign the Registration Statement, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to each Underwriter, but only with reference to written information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for use in the preparation of the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which any Underwriter may otherwise have. The Company acknowledges that (i) the statements set forth in the second-to-last paragraph of the cover page, and, under the heading “Underwriting (Conflicts of Interest)”, (ii) the list of Underwriters and their respective participation in the sale of the Securities, (iii) the sentences related to discounts and commissions and (iv) the paragraphs related to stabilization and syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids in any Preliminary Final Prospectus or the Final Prospectus constitute the only information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the several Underwriters for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity. (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability hereunder to the extent it is not materially prejudiced as a result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 8. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein, and to the extent that it may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, that if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or

23 other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense of such action and approval by the indemnified party of such counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the next preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (plus any local counsel), approved by the Representatives in the case of paragraph (a) of this Section 8, representing the indemnified parties under such paragraph (a) who are parties to such action), (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action or (iii) the indemnifying party has authorized the employment of counsel for the indemnified party at the expense of the indemnifying party; and except that, if clause (i) or (iii) is applicable, such liability shall be only in respect of the counsel referred to in such clause (i) or (iii). No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this Section 8 (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party. (d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 8 is unavailable, the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters severally and not jointly, on the other hand, shall contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending same) to which the Company and one or more of the Underwriters may be subject in proportion to the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Securities, such that the Underwriters are responsible for that portion represented by the percentage that the underwriting discount bears to the sum of such discount and the purchase price of the Securities specified in Schedule I hereto and the Company is responsible for the balance; provided, however, that in no case shall any Underwriter (except as may be provided in any agreement among underwriters relating to the offering of the Securities) be responsible for any amount in excess of the underwriting discount applicable to the Securities purchased by such Underwriter hereunder. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters severally, on the other, shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not

24 only such relative benefits as described in the immediately preceding sentence but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages and liabilities as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the Company on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 8, each person who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of the Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, each officer of the Company who shall have signed the Registration Statement and each director of the Company shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph (d). Any party entitled to contribution will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action, suit or proceeding against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made against another party or parties under this paragraph (d), notify such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission to so notify such party or parties shall not relieve the party or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any other obligation it or they may have hereunder or otherwise than under this paragraph (d). Section 9. Default by an Underwriter. If any one or more Underwriters shall fail to purchase and pay for any of the Depositary Shares agreed to be purchased by such Underwriter or Underwriters hereunder and such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations under this Agreement, the remaining Underwriters shall be obligated severally to take up and pay for (in the respective proportions which the number of Depositary Shares set forth opposite their names in Schedule II hereto bears to the total number of Depositary Shares set forth opposite the names of all the remaining Underwriters) the Depositary Shares which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase; provided, however, that in the event that the total number of Depositary Shares which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase shall exceed 10% of the total number of Depositary Shares set forth in Schedule II hereto, the remaining Underwriters shall have the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any, of the Depositary Shares, and if such non-defaulting Underwriters do not purchase all the Depositary Shares, this Agreement will terminate without liability to any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company. In the event of a default by any Underwriter as set forth in this Section 9, the Closing Date shall be postponed for such period, not exceeding seven days, as the Representatives shall determine in order that the required changes in the

25 Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter of its liability, if any, to the Company and any non-defaulting Underwriter for damages occasioned by its default hereunder. Section 10. Termination. This Agreement shall be subject to termination in the absolute discretion of the Representatives, by notice given to the Company prior to delivery of and payment for the Securities, if prior to such time (i) trading in the Company’s Common Stock shall have been suspended by the Commission or The New York Stock Exchange or trading in securities generally on The New York Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ Global Market shall have been suspended or limited or minimum prices shall have been established on such exchange, (ii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared either by Federal, New York State or Pennsylvania authorities, (iii) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war or other calamity or crisis, economic or otherwise or (iv) a material disruption has occurred in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United States, the effect of which on the financial markets of the United States or any foreign jurisdiction in which the Securities are to be marketed is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Representatives, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of the Securities. Section 11. Recognition of the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes. (a) In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer from such Underwriter of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement, and any such interest and obligation, were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. (b) In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate of such Underwriter becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Underwriter are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. For purposes of this Section 11, “BHC Act Affiliate” has the meaning assigned to the term “affiliate” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. § 1841(k). “Covered Entity” means any of the following: (i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b); (ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or (iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b). “Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable. “U.S. Special Resolution Regime” means each of (i) the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the

26 regulations promulgated thereunder and (ii) Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder. Section 12. Representations and Indemnities to Survive. The respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the Company or its officers and of the Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or the Company or any of the officers, directors or controlling persons referred to in Section 8 hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities. The provisions of Sections 7 and 8 hereof shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement. Section 13. Absence of Fiduciary Duty. The Company acknowledges and agrees that (i) the purchase and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company, on the one hand, and the several Underwriters, on the other, (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading to such transaction each Underwriter is acting solely as a principal and not the agent or fiduciary of the Company, (iii) no Underwriter has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company with respect to the offering contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Underwriter has advised or is currently advising the Company on other matters) or any other obligation to the Company except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement and (iv) the Company has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate. The Company agrees that it will not claim that the Underwriters, or any of them, has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to the Company, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

All communications hereunder will be in writing and effective only on receipt, and, if sent to the Representatives, will be mailed, delivered or transmitted by any standard form of telecommunication, at the address specified in Schedule I hereto; or, if sent to the Company, will be mailed, delivered or transmitted by any standard form of telecommunication to it at The Tower at PNC Plaza, 300 Fifth Avenue, 6th Floor, Pittsburgh, PA 15222-2401, attention of the Executive Vice President and Controller of the Company. Section 15. Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the officers and directors and controlling persons referred to in Section 8 hereof, and no other person will have any right or obligation hereunder. Section 16. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

SCHEDULE III 1. The Final Term Sheet filed pursuant to Section 4(a) of this Agreement

Exhibit 3.1 1 STATEMENT WITH RESPECT TO SHARES OF 6.200% FIXED-RATE RESET NON-CUMULATIVE PERPETUAL PREFERRED STOCK, SERIES V OF THE PNC FINANCIAL SERVICES GROUP, INC. The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (the “Corporation”), in accordance with the provisions of Section 1522(c) of the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law of 1988, does hereby certify: The Capital Committee of the Board of Directors of the Corporation, in accordance with the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, of the Corporation, the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Corporation and applicable law, adopted the following resolution on August 16, 2022 creating a series of 12,500 shares of Preferred Stock of the Corporation designated as “6.200% Fixed-Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series V”: “NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that pursuant to the authority granted to and vested in the Capital Committee by the Board of Directors on August 11, 2022, the Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series V, par value $1.00 per share, of the Corporation established by the Board of Directors by resolution on August 11, 2022 shall be designated as the “6.200% Fixed-Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series V” and the Capital Committee hereby fixes and determines the designations, voting rights, preferences, redemption rights, qualifications, privileges, limitations, restrictions and special or relative rights thereof as set forth below: RIGHTS AND PREFERENCES Section 1. Designation. A series of Preferred Stock designated the “6.200% Fixed-Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series V” (hereinafter called the “Series V Preferred Stock”) shall be established and the authorized number of shares that shall constitute such series shall be 12,500 shares, $1.00 par value per share and having a liquidation preference of $100,000 per share. The number of shares constituting Series V Preferred Stock may be increased from time to time in accordance with law up to the maximum number of shares of Preferred Stock authorized to be issued under the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation, as amended, less all shares at the time authorized of any other series of Preferred Stock. Shares of Series V Preferred Stock will be dated the date of issue, which shall be referred to herein as the “original issue date”. Shares of outstanding Series V Preferred Stock that are redeemed, purchased or otherwise acquired by the Corporation, or converted into another series of Preferred Stock, shall be cancelled and shall revert to authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock undesignated as to series. Section 2. Ranking. The shares of Series V Preferred Stock shall rank: (a) senior, as to dividends and upon liquidation, dissolution and winding up, to the Common Stock, and to any other class or series of capital stock of the Corporation now or hereafter authorized, issued or outstanding that, by its terms, does not expressly provide that it ranks pari passu with the Series V Preferred Stock as to dividends and upon liquidation, dissolution and winding up, as the case may be (collectively, “Series V Junior Securities”); and (b) on a parity, as to dividends and upon liquidation, dissolution and winding up, with the Series B Preferred Stock, Series O Preferred Stock, Series P Preferred Stock, Series R Preferred Stock, Series S Preferred Stock, Series T Preferred Stock and Series U Preferred Stock and with any other class or series of capital stock of the Corporation now or hereafter authorized, issued or outstanding that, by its terms, expressly provides that it ranks pari passu with the Series V Preferred Stock as to dividends and upon liquidation, dissolution and winding up, as the case may be (collectively, “Series V Parity Securities”). The Corporation may authorize and issue additional shares of Series V Junior Securities and Series V Parity Securities without the consent of the holders of Series V Preferred Stock.

2 Section 3. Dividends. (a) Holders of Series V Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee of the Board of Directors, out of assets legally available for the payment of dividends under Pennsylvania law, non-cumulative cash dividends for each quarterly Series V Dividend Period (as defined below) based on the liquidation preference of the Series V Preferred Stock of $100,000 per share at the following dividend rates (as applicable, the “Dividend Rate”): (i) from the original issue date to, but excluding, September 15, 2027 (the “First Reset Date”) at a fixed rate per annum of 6.200%. (ii) from and including the First Reset Date, during each Reset Period (as defined below), at a rate per annum equal to the five-year U.S. Treasury rate as of the most recent Reset Dividend Determination Date (as defined below) plus a spread of 3.238%. A “Series V Dividend Period” means the period from and including a Series V Dividend Payment Date (as defined below) to, but excluding, the next Series V Dividend Payment Date, except that the initial Series V Dividend Period will commence on and include the original issue date of the Series V Preferred Stock. (b) For any Reset Period beginning on or after the First Reset Date, the “five-year U.S. Treasury rate” will be determined by the calculation agent as the average of the yields on actively traded U.S. treasury nominal/non-inflation-indexed securities adjusted to constant maturity, for five-year maturities, for the five Business Days (as defined below) preceding the applicable Reset Dividend Determination Date appearing (or, if fewer than five Business Days so appear, for such number of Business Days appearing) in the most recently published H.15 (as defined below) as of 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on the applicable Reset Dividend Determination Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Corporation or its designee (which may be an affiliate of the Corporation), after consulting with the Corporation, determines on the relevant Reset Dividend Determination Date that the then-current Reference Rate (as defined below) (which as of the original issue date of the Series V Preferred Stock is the five-year U.S. Treasury rate) cannot be determined in the manner then applicable for such Reference Rate (a “Rate Substitution Event”), the Corporation or such designee, after consulting with the Corporation, may determine whether there is an industry-accepted successor rate to the then-current Reference Rate (such industry-accepted successor rate, the “Replacement Rate”). If the Corporation or such designee, after consulting with the Corporation, determines there is such a Replacement Rate, then the Replacement Rate will replace the then-current Reference Rate for all purposes relating to the Series V Preferred Stock (including the Dividend Rate) on such Reset Dividend Determination Date and thereafter. In addition, if a Replacement Rate is selected, the Corporation or its designee (which may be an affiliate of the Corporation), after consulting with the Corporation, may then adopt and make changes to (i) the Reset Date, the Reset Period, the Reset Dividend Determination Date, the day count convention, the Business Day convention, the definition of Business Day and the rounding conventions to be used and (ii) any other relevant methodology or definition for calculating such Replacement Rate, including any spread or adjustment factor needed to make such Replacement Rate comparable to the then-current Reference Rate (which as of the original issue date of the Series V Preferred Stock is the five-year U.S. Treasury rate), in each case in a manner that is substantially consistent with industry-accepted practices for the use of such Replacement Rate (the “Adjustments”). If the Corporation or its designee (which may be an affiliate of the Corporation), after consulting with the Corporation, determines that there is no such Replacement Rate, then the Reference Rate for the applicable Reset Dividend Determination Date will be deemed to be the same rate determined for the prior Reset Dividend Determination Date or, in the case of the first Reset Dividend Determination Date, 2.962%. “H.15” means the daily statistical release designated as such, or any successor publication, published by the Federal Reserve or any successor. “Reference Rate” means, initially, the five-year U.S. Treasury rate; provided that if a Rate Substitution Event has occurred with respect to the five-year U.S. Treasury rate or the then-current Reference Rate, then “Reference Rate” means the applicable Replacement Rate. A “Reset Date” means the First Reset Date and each date falling on the fifth anniversary of the preceding Reset Date. If any Reset Date falls on a date that is not a Business Day, such Reset Date will not be adjusted. A “Reset Period” means the period from and including the First Reset Date to, but excluding, the next following Reset Date, and thereafter each successive period from and including each Reset Date to, but excluding, the next following Reset Date. A “Reset Dividend Determination Date” means, in respect of any Reset Period, the day falling three Business Days prior to the first day of such Reset Period.

3 In the event that the Corporation issues additional shares of Series V Preferred Stock after the original issue date, dividends on such shares will accrue from the original issue date if such shares are issued prior to the first Series V Dividend Payment Date and otherwise will accrue from the date on which such shares are issued (if it is a Series V Dividend Payment Date) or the Series V Dividend Payment Date next preceding the date on which such shares are issued. (c) If declared by the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee of the Board of Directors, the Corporation will pay dividends on the Series V Preferred Stock quarterly in arrears on March 15, June 15, September 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on December 15, 2022 (each, a “Series V Dividend Payment Date”). If any date on which dividends would otherwise be payable is not a Business Day, then the Series V Dividend Payment Date will be the next Business Day without any adjustment to the amount of dividends paid. A “Business Day” means any day except a Saturday, a Sunday or a legal holiday in the City of New York or the City of Pittsburgh on which banking institutions are authorized or obligated by law, regulation or executive order to close. (d) Dividends will be payable to holders of record of Series V Preferred Stock as they appear on the Corporation’s stock register on the applicable record date, which shall be the 15th calendar day before the applicable Series V Dividend Payment Date, or such other record date, not exceeding 30 calendar days before the applicable Series V Dividend Payment Date, as shall be fixed by the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee of the Board of Directors. (e) Dividends payable on the Series V Preferred Stock will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30- day months. Dollar amounts resulting from that calculation will be rounded to the nearest cent, with one-half cent being rounded upwards. Dividends on the Series V Preferred Stock will cease to accrue on the redemption date, if any, unless the Corporation defaults in the payment of the redemption price of the Series V Preferred Stock called for redemption. (f) The applicable Dividend Rate for each Reset Period from and including the First Reset Period will be determined by the calculation agent, as of the applicable Reset Dividend Determination Date. Promptly upon such determination, the calculation agent will notify the Corporation of the Dividend Rate for the Reset Period. Any calculation or determination by the calculation agent with respect to the Dividend Rate will be made in the calculation agent’s sole discretion and will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error. (g) Any determination, decision or selection that may be made by the Corporation or its designee (which may be an affiliate of the Corporation), after consulting with the Corporation, pursuant to the provisions of the Series V Preferred Stock set forth herein (including provisions relating to a Rate Substitution Event, such as any determination with respect to tenor, rate or adjustment, or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date, and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or make or refrain from making any selection) will be made in the Corporation’s or such designee’s sole discretion, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, shall become effective without consent from the holders of Series V Preferred Stock or any other party. (h) Dividends on the Series V Preferred Stock will not be cumulative. If the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee of the Board of Directors does not declare a dividend on the Series V Preferred Stock in respect of a Series V Dividend Period, then no dividend shall be deemed to have accrued for such Series V Dividend Period, be payable on the applicable Series V Dividend Payment Date or be cumulative, and the Corporation will have no obligation to pay any dividend for that Series V Dividend Period, whether or not the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee of the Board of Directors declares a dividend for any future Series V Dividend Period with respect to the Series V Preferred Stock, the Corporation’s Common Stock, or any other class or series of the Corporation’s Preferred Stock. (i) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, dividends on the Series V Preferred Stock shall not be declared, paid or set aside for payment to the extent such act would cause the Corporation to fail to comply with the laws and regulations applicable thereto, including applicable regulatory capital rules. (j) During a Series V Dividend Period, so long as any share of Series V Preferred Stock remains outstanding, unless, in each case, the full dividends for the preceding Series V Dividend Period on all outstanding shares of Series V Preferred Stock have been declared and paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof has been set aside: (1) no dividend shall be declared or paid or set aside for payment, and no distribution shall be declared or made or set aside for payment, on any Series V Junior Securities (other than (i) a dividend payable solely in Series V Junior Securities or (ii) any dividend in connection with the implementation of a shareholders’ rights plan, or the redemption or repurchase of any rights under any such plan); (2) no shares of Series V Junior Securities shall be repurchased, redeemed or otherwise acquired for consideration by the Corporation, directly or indirectly (other than (i) as a result of a reclassification of Series V Junior Securities for or into other Series V Junior Securities, (ii) the exchange or conversion of one share of Series V Junior Securities for or into another share of Series V Junior

4 Securities, (iii) through the use of the proceeds of a substantially contemporaneous sale of other shares of Series V Junior Securities, (iv) purchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of Series V Junior Securities in connection with any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of employees, officers, directors or consultants, (v) purchases of shares of Series V Junior Securities pursuant to a contractually binding requirement to buy Series V Junior Securities existing prior to the preceding Series V Dividend Period, including under a contractually binding stock repurchase plan, or (vi) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of Series V Junior Securities pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such securities or the security being converted or exchanged), nor shall any monies be paid to or made available for a sinking fund for the redemption of any such securities by the Corporation; and (3) no shares of Series V Parity Securities shall be repurchased, redeemed or otherwise acquired for consideration by the Corporation other than pursuant to pro rata offers to purchase all, or a pro rata portion, of Series V Preferred Stock and such Series V Parity Securities, except by conversion into or exchange for Series V Junior Securities. (k) When dividends are not paid in full upon the shares of Series V Preferred Stock and any Series V Parity Securities, all dividends declared upon shares of Series V Preferred Stock and any Series V Parity Securities will be declared on a proportional basis so that the amount of dividends declared per share will bear to each other the same ratio that accrued dividends for the then-current Series V Dividend Period per share on the Series V Preferred Stock, and accrued dividends, including any accumulations, on any Series V Parity Securities, bear to each other. (l) Subject to the foregoing, and not otherwise, dividends (payable in cash, stock or otherwise), as may be determined by the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee of the Board of Directors, may be declared and paid on the Common Stock and any other class or series of capital stock ranking equally with or junior to Series V Preferred Stock from time to time out of any assets legally available for such payment, and the holders of Series V Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to participate in any such dividend. Section 4. Liquidation. (a) Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, holders of Series V Preferred Stock are entitled to receive out of assets of the Corporation available for distribution to stockholders, after satisfaction of liabilities of creditors and depositors and subject to the rights of holders of any securities ranking senior to Series V Preferred Stock, before any distribution of assets is made to holders of Common Stock or any Series V Junior Securities, a liquidating distribution in the amount of the liquidation preference of $100,000 per share, plus any declared and unpaid dividends, without accumulation of any undeclared dividends. Holders of Series V Preferred Stock will not be entitled to any other amounts from the Corporation after they have received their full liquidating distribution. (b) In any such distribution, if the assets of the Corporation are not sufficient to pay the liquidation preferences plus declared and unpaid dividends in full to all holders of Series V Preferred Stock and all holders of any Series V Parity Securities, the amounts paid to the holders of Series V Preferred Stock and to the holders of all Series V Parity Securities will be paid pro rata in accordance with the respective aggregate liquidating distribution owed to those holders. If the liquidation preference plus declared and unpaid dividends has been paid in full to all holders of Series V Preferred Stock and all holders of any Series V Parity Securities, the holders of Series V Junior Securities shall be entitled to receive all remaining assets of the Corporation according to their respective rights and preferences. (c) For purposes of this section, neither the merger or consolidation of the Corporation with any other entity, including a merger or consolidation in which the holders of Series V Preferred Stock receive cash, securities or property for their shares, nor the sale, lease or exchange of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation for cash, securities or other property, shall constitute a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation. Section 5. Redemption. (a) The Series V Preferred Stock is not subject to any mandatory redemption, sinking fund or other similar provisions. The Corporation may redeem the Series V Preferred Stock at its option, in whole or in part, from time to time, on any Series V Dividend Payment Date on or after the First Reset Date, at a redemption price equal to $100,000 per share, plus any declared and unpaid dividends, without accumulation of any undeclared dividends. Neither the holders of Series V Preferred Stock nor the holders of depositary shares will have the right to require the redemption or repurchase of the Series V Preferred Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation may redeem shares of the Series V Preferred Stock at any time within 90 days following the occurrence of a Regulatory Capital Treatment Event (as defined below), in whole but not in part, at a redemption price equal to $100,000 per share, plus any declared and unpaid dividends and an amount equal to the partial dividend that would have accrued from the prior scheduled Series V Dividend Payment Date to the redemption date. A “Regulatory Capital Treatment Event” means the good faith determination by the Corporation that as a result of (i) any amendment to, or change in, the laws or regulations of the United States or any political subdivision of or in the United States that is enacted or becomes effective after the initial issuance of any share of Series V Preferred Stock; (ii) any proposed change in those laws or regulations that is announced after the initial issuance of any share of Series V Preferred Stock; or (iii) any official administrative

5 decision or judicial decision or administrative action or other official pronouncement interpreting or applying those laws or regulations that is announced after the initial issuance of any share of Series V Preferred Stock, there is more than an insubstantial risk that the Corporation will not be entitled to treat the full liquidation value of the shares of Series V Preferred Stock then outstanding as “additional Tier 1 capital” (or its equivalent) for purposes of the capital adequacy guidelines of the Federal Reserve (or, as and if applicable, the capital adequacy guidelines or regulations of any appropriate successor federal banking regulator or agency), as then in effect and applicable, for as long as any share of Series V Preferred Stock is outstanding. Redemption of the Series V Preferred Stock is subject to compliance with applicable regulatory capital rules, including any applicable approvals. (b) If shares of Series V Preferred Stock are to be redeemed, the notice of redemption shall be given by first class mail to the holders of record of Series V Preferred Stock to be redeemed, mailed not less than 5 calendar days nor more than 30 calendar days prior to the date fixed for redemption thereof (provided that if the depositary shares representing Series V Preferred Stock are held in book-entry form through The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), the Corporation may give such notice in any manner permitted by DTC). Each notice of redemption will include a statement setting forth: (i) the redemption date; (ii) the number of shares of Series V Preferred Stock to be redeemed and, if less than all the shares held by such holder are to be redeemed, the number of shares of Series V Preferred Stock to be redeemed from such holder; (iii) the redemption price; (iv) the place or places where the certificates evidencing shares of Series V Preferred Stock are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price; and (v) that dividends on the shares of Series V Preferred Stock to be redeemed will cease to accrue on the redemption date. If notice of redemption of any shares of Series V Preferred Stock has been duly given and if the funds necessary for such redemption have been set aside by the Corporation for the benefit of the holders of any shares of Series V Preferred Stock so called for redemption, then, on and after the redemption date, dividends will cease to accrue on such shares of Series V Preferred Stock, such shares of Series V Preferred Stock shall no longer be deemed outstanding and all rights of the holders of such shares will terminate, except the right to receive the redemption price plus (A) in the case of any optional redemption, any declared and unpaid dividends, without accumulation of any undeclared dividends, or (B) in the case of a Regulatory Capital Treatment Event, any declared and unpaid dividends and an amount equal to the partial dividend that would have accrued from the prior scheduled Series V Dividend Payment Date to the redemption date. (c) In case of any redemption of only a portion of the shares of Series V Preferred Stock at the time outstanding, the shares to be redeemed shall be selected either pro rata, by lot or in such other manner as the Corporation may determine to be equitable. Section 6. Voting Rights. (a) Except as provided below or as expressly required by law, the holders of Series V Preferred Stock shall have no voting power, and no right to vote on any matter at any time, either as a separate series or class or together with any other series or class of shares of capital stock, and shall not be entitled to call a meeting of such holders for any purpose, nor shall they be entitled to participate in any meeting of the holders of the Common Stock. (b) So long as any shares of Series V Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of at least two-thirds of all of the shares of Series V Preferred Stock at the time outstanding, voting separately as a class, shall be required to: (i) authorize, increase the authorized amount of or issue shares of any class or series of stock ranking senior to the Series V Preferred Stock with respect to payment of dividends or the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, or issue any obligation or security convertible into or evidencing the right to purchase any class or series of stock ranking senior to the Series V Preferred Stock with respect to payment of dividends or the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation; (ii) amend the provisions of the Corporation’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, so as to adversely affect the powers, preferences, privileges or rights of Series V Preferred Stock, taken as a whole, provided, however, that any increase in the amount of the authorized or issued shares of Series V Preferred Stock or authorized common or preferred stock or the creation and issuance, or an increase in the authorized or issued amount, of other series of Preferred Stock ranking equally with or junior to Series V Preferred Stock with respect to the payment of dividends (whether such dividends are cumulative or non-cumulative) or the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation will not be deemed to adversely affect the powers, preferences, privileges or rights of Series V Preferred Stock; or (iii) consolidate with or merge into any other entity unless the shares of Series V Preferred Stock outstanding at the time of such consolidation or merger remain outstanding or, in the case of any such merger or consolidation with respect to which the Corporation is not the surviving entity, are converted into or exchanged for preference securities having such rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers, taken as a whole, as are not materially less favorable to the holders thereof than the rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers of the Series V Preferred Stock, taken as a whole. The foregoing voting provisions will not apply if, at or prior to the time when the act with respect to which such vote would otherwise be required shall be effected, all outstanding shares of Series V Preferred Stock shall have been redeemed or called for redemption upon proper notice and sufficient funds shall have been set aside by the Corporation for the benefit of the holders of Series V Preferred Stock to effect such redemption. (c) If the Corporation fails to pay, or declare and set apart for payment, dividends on outstanding shares of Series V Preferred Stock or any other series of Preferred Stock for six quarterly dividend periods, or their equivalent, whether or not consecutive, the number of directors of the Corporation shall be increased by two at the Corporation’s first annual meeting of the shareholders held thereafter, and at such meeting and at each subsequent annual meeting until cumulative dividends payable for all past dividend periods and continuous noncumulative dividends for at least one year on all outstanding shares of Preferred Stock entitled thereto shall have

6 been paid, or declared and set apart for payment, in full, the holders of Series V Preferred Stock shall have the right, voting as a class with holders of any other equally ranked series of Preferred Stock that have similar voting rights, to elect such two additional members of the Board of Directors to hold office for a term of one year. Upon such payment, or such declaration and setting apart for payment, in full, the terms of the two additional directors so elected shall forthwith terminate, and the number of directors of the Corporation shall be reduced by two, and such voting right of the holders of Series V Preferred Stock shall cease, subject to an increase in the number of directors of the Corporation as described above and revesting of such voting right in the event of each and every additional failure in the payment of dividends for six quarterly dividend periods, or their equivalent, whether or not consecutive, as described above. Section 7. Conversion Rights. The holders of Series V Preferred Stock shall not have any rights to convert such shares into shares of any other class or series of securities of the Corporation. Section 8. Preemptive Rights. The holders of Series V Preferred Stock will have no preemptive rights with respect to any shares of the Corporation’s capital stock or any of its other securities convertible into or carrying rights or options to purchase any such capital stock. Section 9. Certificates. The Corporation may at its option issue shares of Series V Preferred Stock without certificates. Section 10. Transfer Agent. The duly appointed transfer agent for the Series V Preferred Stock shall be Computershare Trust Company, N.A. The Corporation may, in its sole discretion, remove the transfer agent in accordance with the agreement between the Corporation and the transfer agent; provided that the Corporation shall appoint a successor transfer agent who shall accept such appointment prior to the effectiveness of such removal. Upon any such removal or appointment, the Corporation shall send notice thereof by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the holders of Series V Preferred Stock. Section 11. Registrar. The duly appointed registrar for the Series V Preferred Stock shall be Computershare Trust Company, N.A. The Corporation may, in its sole discretion, remove the registrar in accordance with the agreement between the Corporation and the registrar; provided that the Corporation shall appoint a successor registrar who shall accept such appointment prior to the effectiveness of such removal.

ARTICLE II APPOINTMENT OF DEPOSITARY; BOOK-ENTRY SYSTEM; FORM OF AND TRANSFER OF RECEIPTS; DEPOSIT OF SERIES V PREFERRED STOCK; EXECUTION AND DELIVERY, TRANSFER, SURRENDER AND REDEMPTION OF RECEIPTS Section 2.1 Appointment of Depositary. The Corporation hereby appoints Computershare and Trust Company, collectively, as Depositary for the Series V Preferred Stock, and each of Computershare and Trust Company hereby accepts such appointment as Depository for the Series V Preferred Stock, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Deposit Agreement. Section 2.2 Book-Entry System; Form and Transfer of Receipts. The Corporation and the Depositary shall make application to DTC for acceptance of all of the Receipts for its book-entry settlement system. The Corporation hereby appoints the Depositary acting through any authorized officer thereof as its attorney-in-fact, with full power to delegate, for purposes of executing any agreements, certifications or other instruments or documents necessary or desirable in order to effect the acceptance of such Receipts for DTC eligibility. So long as the Receipts are eligible for book-entry settlement with DTC, unless otherwise required by law, all Depositary Shares with book-entry settlement through DTC shall be represented by a single receipt (the “DTC Receipt”), which shall be deposited with DTC (or its designee) evidencing all such Depositary Shares and registered in the name of the nominee of DTC (initially expected to be Cede & Co.). The Depositary or such other entity as is agreed to by DTC may hold the DTC Receipt as custodian for DTC. Ownership of beneficial interests in the DTC Receipt shall be shown on, and the transfer of such ownership shall be effected through, records maintained by (i) DTC or its nominee for such DTC Receipt or (ii) institutions that have accounts with DTC. The DTC Receipt shall bear such legend or legends as may be required by DTC in order for it to accept the Depositary Shares for its book-entry settlement system. If DTC subsequently ceases to make its book-entry settlement system available for the Receipts, the Corporation may instruct the Depositary regarding making other arrangements for book-entry settlement. If the Receipts are not eligible for book-entry form, the Depositary shall provide written instructions to DTC to deliver the DTC Receipt to the Depositary for cancellation and the Corporation shall instruct the Depositary to deliver to the beneficial owners of the Depositary Shares previously evidenced by the DTC Receipt definitive Receipts in physical form evidencing such Depositary Shares.

3 Beneficial owners of Depositary Shares through DTC will not be entitled to receive Receipts in physical, certificated form or have Depositary Shares registered in their name, except as described below. The DTC Receipt shall be exchangeable for definitive Receipts only if (i) DTC notifies the Corporation at any time that it is unwilling or unable to continue to make its book-entry settlement available for the Receipts and a successor to DTC is not appointed by the Corporation within ninety (90) days of the date the Corporation is so informed in writing, (ii) DTC notifies the Corporation at any time that it has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under applicable law and a successor to DTC is not appointed within ninety (90) days of the date the Corporation is so informed in writing, or (iii) the Corporation in its sole discretion notifies the Depositary in writing that the DTC Receipt shall be exchangeable for definitive Receipts. If beneficial owners of interests in Depositary Shares are entitled to exchange such interests for definitive Receipts as the result of an event described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of the preceding sentence, then without unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the earliest date on which such beneficial interests may be so exchanged, upon receipt by the Depositary of the DTC Receipt for cancellation and any other necessary documentation, the Depositary is hereby directed to and shall execute and deliver to the beneficial owners of the Depositary Shares previously evidenced by the DTC Receipt definitive Receipts in physical form evidencing such Depositary Shares and to make appropriate entries in the register with respect thereto. Receipts shall be in denominations of any number of whole Depositary Shares. The Corporation shall deliver to the Depositary from time to time such quantities of Receipts as the Depositary may request to enable the Depositary to perform its obligations under this Deposit Agreement. The DTC Receipts and definitive Receipts, if any, shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A annexed to this Deposit Agreement and incorporated herein by reference, with appropriate insertions, modifications and omissions, as hereinafter provided and shall be engraved or otherwise prepared so as to comply with applicable rules of any securities exchange on which the Depositary Shares are then listed. In the case of any of the events described above resulting in the issuance of definitive Receipts in exchange for the DTC Receipt, the Depository, pending the preparation of definitive Receipts and upon the written order of the Corporation delivered in compliance with Section 2.3, shall execute and deliver temporary Receipts which may be printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise substantially of the tenor of the definitive Receipts in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the persons executing such Receipts may determine (but which do not affect the rights or duties of the Depositary), as evidenced by their execution of such Receipts. If temporary Receipts are issued, the Corporation and the Depositary will cause definitive Receipts to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Receipts, the temporary Receipts shall be exchangeable by the Holder for definitive Receipts upon surrender of the temporary Receipts at an office described in the second paragraph of Section 2.3, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Receipts, the Depositary shall execute and deliver in exchange therefor definitive Receipts representing the same number of Depositary Shares as represented by the surrendered temporary Receipt or Receipts. Such exchange shall be made at the Corporation’s expense and without any charge therefor to the Holder or the Depositary. Until so exchanged, the temporary Receipts shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Deposit Agreement as definitive Receipts. Receipts shall be executed by the Depositary by the manual or facsimile signature of a duly authorized officer of the Depositary; provided that, if a Registrar for the Receipts (other than the Depositary) shall have been appointed, such Receipts shall also be countersigned by manual or facsimile signature of a duly authorized officer of such Registrar. No Receipt shall be entitled to any benefits under this Deposit Agreement or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless it shall have been executed as described in the preceding sentence. The Registrar shall record on its books each Receipt so signed and delivered as hereinafter provided. Receipts bearing the manual or facsimile signature of a duly authorized signatory of the Depositary who was at any time a proper and duly authorized signatory of the Depositary shall bind the Depositary, notwithstanding that such signatory ceased to hold such office prior to the delivery of such Receipts or did not hold such office on the date of issuance of such Receipts. Receipts may be endorsed with or have incorporated in the text thereof such legends or recitals or changes not inconsistent with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement all as may be required by the Corporation or by the Depositary and approved by the Corporation or required to comply with any applicable law or any regulation thereunder or with the rules and regulations of any securities exchange upon which the Series V Preferred Stock, the Depositary Shares or the Receipts may be listed or to conform with any usage with respect thereto, or to indicate any special limitations or restrictions to which any particular Receipts are subject.

4 Title to Depositary Shares evidenced by a Receipt which is properly endorsed or accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer, shall be transferable by delivery with the same effect as in the case of a negotiable instrument in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures; provided, however, that until transfer of any particular Receipt, it shall be registered on the books of the Registrar as provided in Section 2.4, the Depositary may, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, treat the Record Holder thereof at such time as the absolute owner thereof for the purpose of determining the person entitled to distributions of dividends or other distributions or to any notice provided for in this Deposit Agreement and for all other purposes. Section 2.3 Deposit of Series V Preferred Stock; Execution and Delivery of Receipts in Respect Thereof. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, the Corporation may from time to time deposit shares of Series V Preferred Stock under this Deposit Agreement by delivery to the Depositary, including via electronic book-entry (or in such other manner as may be agreed to by the Corporation and the Depository), of such shares of Series V Preferred Stock to be deposited, properly endorsed or accompanied, if required by the Depositary, by a duly executed instrument of transfer or endorsement, in form satisfactory to the Depositary, together with: (i) all such certifications as may be required by the Depositary in accordance with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement, (ii) an opinion of counsel to the Corporation addressed to the Depositary which it is permitted to rely upon, stating that: (1) the Depositary Shares and the Series V Preferred Stock have been registered under the Securities Act and (2) the Series V Preferred Stock, when issued and delivered against payment therefor, will be duly and validly issued and fully paid and non-assessable, (iii) an executed Officer’s Certificate attaching the Certificate of Designations and all other information required to be set forth therein which the Depository is permitted to rely upon, and (iv) a written order of the Corporation directing the Depositary to execute and deliver to, or upon the written order of, the person or persons stated in such order a Receipt or Receipts evidencing in the aggregate the number of Depositary Shares representing such deposited Series V Preferred Stock. Shares of Series V Preferred Stock that are deposited shall be held by the Depositary in an account to be established by the Depositary at the Depositary’s Office, or at such other place or places as the Depositary shall determine. As Registrar and Transfer Agent for the deposited Series V Preferred Stock, the Depositary will reflect changes in the number of shares of deposited Series V Preferred Stock held by it by notation, book-entry or other appropriate method. The Depositary shall not lend any Series V Preferred Stock deposited hereunder. Upon receipt by the Depositary of shares of Series V Preferred Stock deposited in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.3, together with the other documents required as above specified, and upon recordation of the Series V Preferred Stock on the books of the Corporation (or its duly appointed transfer agent) in the name of the Depositary or its nominee, the Depositary, subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, shall execute and deliver to or upon the order of the person or persons named in the written order delivered to the Depositary referred to in the first paragraph of this Section 2.3, a Receipt or Receipts evidencing in the aggregate the number of Depositary Shares representing the Series V Preferred Stock so deposited and registered in such name or names as may be requested by such person or persons. The Depositary shall execute and deliver such Receipt or Receipts at the Depositary’s Office or such other offices, if any, as the Depositary may designate. Delivery at other offices shall be at the risk and expense of the person requesting such delivery. Section 2.4 Registration of Transfer of Receipts. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary, as Registrar and Transfer Agent for the Receipts, shall register on its books from time to time transfers of Receipts upon any surrender thereof by the Holder in person or by a duly authorized attorney, properly endorsed or accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer and including a signature guarantee from an eligible guarantor institution participating in a signature guarantee program approved by the Securities Transfer Association, and any other evidence of authority that may be reasonably required by the Depositary (or successor Registrar or Transfer Agent), together with evidence of the payment of any applicable taxes or charges as may be required by law. Thereupon, the Depositary shall execute a new Receipt or Receipts evidencing the same aggregate number of Depositary Shares as those evidenced by the Receipt or Receipts surrendered and deliver such new Receipt or Receipts to or upon the order of the person entitled thereto. The Depositary shall not be required (a) to issue, transfer or exchange any Receipts for a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days next preceding any selection of Depositary Shares and Series V Preferred Stock to be redeemed and ending at the close of business on the day of the mailing of notice of redemption, or (b) to transfer or

5 exchange for another Receipt any Receipt called or being called for redemption in whole or in part except as provided in Section 2.9. Section 2.5 Split-ups and Combinations of Receipts; Surrender of Receipts and Withdrawal of Series V Preferred Stock. Upon surrender of a Receipt or Receipts at the Depositary’s Office or at such other offices as it may designate for the purpose of effecting a split-up or combination of such Receipt or Receipts, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary shall execute a new Receipt or Receipts in the authorized denomination or denominations requested, evidencing the aggregate number of Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipt or Receipts surrendered, and shall deliver such new Receipt or Receipts to or upon the order of the Holder of the Receipt or Receipts so surrendered. Any Holder of a Receipt or Receipts may withdraw the number of whole shares of Series V Preferred Stock and all money and other property, if any, represented thereby by surrendering such Receipt or Receipts, or Depositary Shares represented by such Receipt or Receipts, at the Depositary’s Office or at such other offices as the Depositary may designate for such withdrawals; provided, that a holder of a Receipt or Receipts may not withdraw such Preferred Stock (or money and other property, if any, represented thereby) which has previously been called for redemption; and provided further that the fee of the Depositary for the surrender of Receipts to the extent provided in Section 5.7 and all taxes and governmental charges in connection with such surrender and withdrawal of Preferred Stock have been paid in accordance with the terms of this Deposit Agreement. Thereafter, without unreasonable delay, the Depositary shall deliver to such Holder, or to the person or persons designated by such Holder as hereinafter provided, the number of whole shares of Series V Preferred Stock and all money and other property, if any, represented by the Receipt or Receipts, or Depositary Shares represented by such Receipt or Receipts, so surrendered for withdrawal, but Holders of such whole shares of Series V Preferred Stock will not thereafter be entitled to deposit such Series V Preferred Stock hereunder or to receive a Receipt evidencing Depositary Shares therefor. If a Receipt delivered by the Holder to the Depositary in connection with such withdrawal shall evidence a number of Depositary Shares in excess of the number of Depositary Shares representing the number of whole shares of Series V Preferred Stock to be withdrawn, the Depositary shall at the same time, in addition to such number of whole shares of Series V Preferred Stock and such money and other property, if any, to be so withdrawn, deliver to such Holder, or subject to Section 2.4 upon his order, a new Receipt evidencing such excess number of Depositary Shares. In no event will fractional shares of Series V Preferred Stock (or any cash payment in lieu thereof) be delivered by the Depositary or Computershare, as applicable. Delivery of the Series V Preferred Stock and money and other property, if any, being withdrawn may be made by the delivery of such certificates, documents of title and other instruments as the Depositary may deem appropriate (or in such other manner as may be agreed by the Corporation and the Depositary), which if required by the Depositary shall be properly endorsed or accompanied by proper instruments of transfer. If the Series V Preferred Stock and the money and other property, if any, being withdrawn are to be delivered to a person or persons other than the Record Holder of the related Receipt or Receipts being surrendered for withdrawal of such Series V Preferred Stock, such Holder shall execute and deliver to the Depositary a written order so directing the Depositary and the Depositary may require that the Receipt or Receipts surrendered by such Holder for withdrawal of such shares of Series V Preferred Stock be properly endorsed in blank or accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer in blank. Delivery of the Series V Preferred Stock and the money and other property, if any, represented by Receipts surrendered for withdrawal shall be made by the Depositary at the Depositary’s Office, except that, at the request, risk and expense of the Holder surrendering such Receipt or Receipts and for the account of the Holder thereof, such delivery may be made at such other place as may be designated by such Holder. Section 2.6 Limitations on Execution and Delivery, Transfer, Surrender and Exchange of Receipts. As a condition precedent to the execution and delivery, registration of transfer, split-up, combination, surrender or exchange of any Receipt, the Depositary, any of the Depositary’s Agents or the Corporation may require payment to it of a sum sufficient for the payment (or, in the event that the Depositary or the Corporation shall have made such payment, the reimbursement to it) of any charges or expenses payable by the Holder of a Receipt pursuant to Section 5.7, may require the production of evidence satisfactory to it as to the identity and genuineness of any signature (which evidence will include a signature guarantee and any other reasonable evidence of authority that may be required

6 by the Depositary), and may also require compliance with such regulations, if any, as the Depositary or the Corporation may establish consistent with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement and/or applicable law and as may be required by any securities exchange on which the Series V Preferred Stock, the Depositary Shares or the Receipts may be listed. The deposit of the Series V Preferred Stock may be refused, the delivery of Receipts against Series V Preferred Stock may be suspended, the registration of transfer of Receipts may be refused and the registration of transfer, surrender or exchange of outstanding Receipts may be suspended (i) during any period when the register of stockholders of the Corporation is closed or (ii) if any such action is deemed necessary or advisable by the Depositary, any of the Depositary’s Agents or the Corporation at any time or from time to time because of any requirement of law or of any government or governmental body or commission or under any provision of this Deposit Agreement. Section 2.7 Lost Receipts, etc. In case any Receipt shall be mutilated and surrendered to the Depositary, destroyed, lost or stolen, the Depositary in its discretion may execute and deliver a Receipt of like form and tenor in exchange and substitution for such mutilated Receipt, or in lieu of and in substitution for such destroyed, lost or stolen Receipt, upon (i) the filing by the Holder thereof with the Depositary of evidence satisfactory to the Depositary of such destruction or loss or theft of such Receipt, of the authenticity thereof and of his or her ownership thereof and (ii) the Holder thereof furnishing the Depositary with an affidavit and an open penalty surety bond satisfactory to the Depositary; and (iii) the payment of any reasonable expense (including reasonable fees, charges, and expenses of the Depositary) in connection with such execution and delivery. Applicants for such substitute Receipts shall also comply with such other reasonable regulations and pay such other reasonable charges as the Depositary may prescribe and as required by Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code. Section 2.8 Cancellation and Destruction of Surrendered Receipts. All Receipts surrendered to the Depositary or any Depositary’s Agent shall be cancelled by the Depositary. Except as prohibited by applicable law or regulation, the Depositary is authorized and directed to destroy all Receipts so cancelled. Section 2.9 Redemption of Series V Preferred Stock. Whenever the Corporation shall be permitted and shall elect to redeem shares of Series V Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms of the Certificate of Designations, it shall (unless otherwise agreed to in writing with the Depositary) give or cause to be given to the Depositary or Computershare, as applicable, not less than five (5) days and not more than thirty (30) days prior to the Redemption Date (as defined below), written notice of the date of such proposed redemption of Series V Preferred Stock and of the number of such shares held by the Depositary to be so redeemed and the applicable redemption price, which notice shall be accompanied by a certificate from the Corporation stating that such redemption of Series V Preferred Stock is in accordance with the provisions of the Certificate of Designations. On the date of such redemption, provided that the Corporation shall then have paid or caused to be paid in full to Computershare the redemption price of the Series V Preferred Stock to be redeemed, plus (i) an amount equal to any declared and unpaid dividends thereon to the date fixed for redemption, or (ii) in the case of a Regulatory Capital Treatment Event (as defined in the Statement) plus any declared and unpaid dividends and an amount equal to the partial dividend that would have accrued from the prior scheduled dividend payment date up to the redemption date, thereon to the date fixed for redemption, in each case in accordance with the provisions of the Statement, the Depositary shall redeem the number of Depositary Shares representing such Series V Preferred Stock. The Depositary shall mail notice of the Corporation’s redemption of Series V Preferred Stock and the proposed simultaneous redemption of the number of Depositary Shares representing the Series V Preferred Stock to be redeemed by first-class mail, postage prepaid (or another reasonably acceptable transmission method), not less than five (5) days and not more than thirty (30) days prior to the date fixed for redemption of such Series V Preferred Stock and Depositary Shares (the “Redemption Date”), to the Record Holders of the Receipts evidencing the Depositary Shares to be so redeemed at their respective last addresses as they appear on the records of the Depositary (provided that, if the Depositary Shares are held through DTC, the Depositary shall give such notice in accordance with the procedures of DTC); but neither failure to mail any such notice of redemption of Depositary Shares to one or more such Holders nor any defect in any notice of redemption of Depositary Shares to one or more such Holders shall affect the sufficiency of the proceedings for redemption as to the other Holders. Each such notice shall be prepared by the Corporation and shall state: (i) the Redemption Date; (ii) the number of Depositary Shares to be redeemed and, if less than all the Depositary Shares held by any such Holder are to be redeemed, the number of such Depositary Shares held by such Holder to be so redeemed; (iii) the redemption

7 price; (iv) the place or places where Receipts evidencing such Depositary Shares are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price; and (v) that dividends in respect of the Series V Preferred Stock represented by such Depositary Shares to be redeemed will cease to accrue on such Redemption Date. In case less than all the outstanding Depositary Shares are to be redeemed, the Depositary Shares to be so redeemed shall be selected either pro rata or by lot. Notice having been mailed (or transmitted) by the Depositary as aforesaid, from and after the Redemption Date (unless the Corporation shall have failed to provide the funds necessary to redeem the Series V Preferred Stock evidenced by the Depositary Shares called for redemption) (i) dividends on the shares of Series V Preferred Stock so called for Redemption shall cease to accrue from and after such date, (ii) the Depositary Shares being redeemed from such proceeds shall be deemed no longer to be outstanding, (iii) all rights of the Holders of Receipts evidencing such Depositary Shares (except the right to receive the redemption price) shall, to the extent of such Depositary Shares, cease and terminate, and (iv) upon surrender in accordance with such redemption notice of the Receipts evidencing any such Depositary Shares called for redemption (properly endorsed or assigned for transfer, if the Depositary or applicable law shall so require), such Depositary Shares shall be redeemed by the Depositary at a redemption price per Depositary Share equal to 1/100th of the redemption price per share of Series V Preferred Stock so redeemed plus all money and other property, if any, represented by such Depositary Shares, including all amounts paid by the Corporation in respect of dividends in accordance with the provisions of the Statement. If fewer than all of the Depositary Shares evidenced by a Receipt are called for redemption, the Depositary or Computershare, as appropriate, will deliver to the Holder of such Receipt upon its surrender to the Depositary, together with the redemption payment, a new Receipt evidencing the Depositary Shares evidenced by such prior Receipt and not called for redemption. In any such case, the Corporation shall redeem Depositary Shares only in increments of 10 Depositary Shares and any multiple thereof. The Depositary shall, to the extent permitted by law, release or repay to the Corporation any funds deposited by or for the account of the Corporation for the purpose of redeeming any Depositary Shares that remain unclaimed at the end of three years from the applicable Redemption Date, without further action necessary on the part of the Corporation. Section 2.10 Deposits. All funds received by Computershare under this Deposit Agreement that are to be distributed or applied by Computershare in the performance of services under this Deposit Agreement (the “Funds”) shall be held by Computershare as agent for the Corporation and deposited in one or more bank accounts to be maintained by Computershare in its name as agent for the Corporation. Until paid pursuant to this Deposit Agreement, Computershare may hold or invest the Funds through such accounts in: (i) obligations of, or guaranteed by, the United States of America, (ii) commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Standard & Poor’s Global Ratings (“S&P”) or Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”), respectively, (iii) money market funds that comply with Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, or (iv) demand deposit accounts, short term certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or bankers’ acceptances, of commercial banks with Tier 1 capital exceeding $1 billion or with an average rating above investment grade by S&P (LT Local Issuer Credit Rating), Moody’s (Long Term Rating) and Fitch Ratings, Inc. (LT Issuer Default Rating) (each as reported by Bloomberg Finance L.P.). Computershare shall not bear responsibility nor liability for any diminution of the Funds that may result from any deposit or investment made by Computershare in accordance with this paragraph, including any losses, resulting from a default by any bank, financial institution or other third party. Computershare may from time to time receive interest, dividends or other earnings in connection with such deposits or investments. Computershare shall not be obligated to pay such interest, dividends or earnings to the Corporation, any Holder or any other party. ARTICLE III CERTAIN OBLIGATIONS OF HOLDERS OF RECEIPTS AND THE CORPORATION Section 3.1 Filing Proofs, Certificates and Other Information. Any Holder of a Receipt may be required from time to time to file such proof of residence, or other matters or other information, to execute such certificates and to make such representations and warranties as the Depositary or the Corporation may reasonably deem necessary or proper. The Depositary or the Corporation may withhold the delivery, or delay the registration of transfer or redemption, of any Receipt or the withdrawal of the Series V Preferred Stock represented by the Depositary Shares and evidenced by a Receipt or the distribution of any dividend or other

8 distribution or the sale of any rights or of the proceeds thereof until such proof or other information is filed or such certificates are executed or such representations and warranties are made. Section 3.2 Payment of Taxes or Other Governmental Charges. Holders of Receipts shall be obligated to make payments to Computershare of certain charges and expenses, as provided in Section 5.7. Registration of transfer of any Receipt or any withdrawal of Series V Preferred Stock and all money or other property, if any, represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt may be refused until any such payment due is made, and any dividends, interest payments or other distributions may be withheld or any part of or all the Series V Preferred Stock or other property represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt and not theretofore sold may be sold for the account of the Holder thereof (after attempting by reasonable means to notify such Holder prior to such sale), and such dividends, interest payments or other distributions or the proceeds of any such sale may be applied to any payment of such charges or expenses, the Holder of such Receipt remaining liable for any deficiency. Section 3.3 Warranty as to Series V Preferred Stock. The Corporation hereby represents and warrants that the Series V Preferred Stock, when issued, will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. Such representation and warranty shall survive the deposit of the Series V Preferred Stock and the issuance of the related Receipts. Section 3.4 Warranty as to Receipts. The Corporation hereby represents and warrants that the Receipts, when issued, will represent legal and valid interests in the Depositary Shares, and each Depositary Share will represent a 1/100th interest in a share of deposited Series V Preferred Stock. Such representation and warranty shall survive the deposit of the Series V Preferred Stock and the issuance of the Receipts. ARTICLE IV THE DEPOSITED SECURITIES; NOTICES Section 4.1 Cash Distributions. Whenever Computershare shall receive any cash dividend or other cash distribution on the Series V Preferred Stock, Computershare shall, subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2, distribute to Record Holders of Receipts on the record date fixed pursuant to Section 4.4 such amounts of such dividend or distribution as are, as nearly as practicable, in proportion to the respective numbers of Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipts held by such Holders; provided, however, that in case the Corporation or Computershare shall be required to withhold and shall withhold from any cash dividend or other cash distribution in respect of the Series V Preferred Stock an amount on account of taxes, the amount made available for distribution or distributed in respect of Depositary Shares shall be reduced accordingly. Computershare shall distribute or make available for distribution, as the case may be, only such amount, however, as can be distributed without attributing to any Holder of Receipts a fraction of one cent, and any balance not so distributable shall be held by Computershare (without liability for interest thereon) and shall be added to and be treated as part of the next sum received by Computershare for distribution to Record Holders of Receipts then outstanding. Each Holder of a Receipt shall provide the Depositary with its certified tax identification number on a properly completed Form W-8 or W-9, as may be applicable. Each Holder of a Receipt acknowledges that, in the event of non-compliance with the preceding sentence, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, may require withholding by Computershare of a portion of any of the distributions to be made hereunder. Section 4.2 Distributions Other than Cash, Rights, Preferences or Privileges. Whenever the Depositary shall receive any distribution other than cash, rights, preferences or privileges upon the Series V Preferred Stock, the Depositary shall, subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2, distribute to Record Holders of Receipts on the record date fixed pursuant to Section 4.4 such amounts of the securities or property received by it as are, as nearly as practicable, in proportion to the respective numbers of Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipts held by such Holders, in any manner that the Depositary may deem equitable and practicable for accomplishing such distribution. If in the opinion of the Depositary such distribution cannot be made proportionately among such Record Holders, or if for any other reason (including any requirement that the Corporation or the Depositary withhold an

9 amount on account of taxes) the Depositary deems, after consultation with the Corporation, such distribution not to be feasible, the Depositary may, with the approval of the Corporation, adopt such method as it deems equitable and practicable for the purpose of effecting such distribution, including the sale (at public or private sale) of the securities or property thus received, or any part thereof, in a commercially reasonable manner. The net proceeds of any such sale shall, subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2, be distributed or made available for distribution, as the case may be, by Computershare to Record Holders of Receipts as provided by Section 4.1 in the case of a distribution received in cash. The Corporation shall not make any distribution of such securities or property to the Depositary and the Depositary shall not make any distribution of such securities or property to the Holders of Receipts unless the Corporation shall have provided an opinion of counsel stating that such securities or property have been registered under the Securities Act or do not need to be registered in connection with such distributions. Section 4.3 Subscription Rights, Preferences or Privileges. If the Corporation shall at any time offer or cause to be offered to the persons in whose names the Series V Preferred Stock is recorded on the books of the Corporation any rights, preferences or privileges to subscribe for or to purchase any securities or any rights, preferences or privileges of any other nature, such rights, preferences or privileges shall in each such instance be made available by the Depositary to the Record Holders of Receipts in such manner as the Corporation shall reasonably direct, either by the issue to such Record Holders of warrants representing such rights, preferences or privileges or by such other method as may be approved by the Depositary in its discretion with the approval of the Corporation; provided, however, that (i) if at the time of issue or offer of any such rights, preferences or privileges the Depositary or the Corporation determines that it is not lawful or (after consultation with the Corporation) not feasible to make such rights, preferences or privileges available to Holders of Receipts by the issue of warrants or otherwise, or (ii) if and to the extent so instructed by Holders of Receipts who do not desire to exercise such rights, preferences or privileges, then the Depositary, in its discretion (with approval of the Corporation, in any case where the Depositary has determined that it is not feasible to make such rights, preferences or privileges available), may, if applicable laws or the terms of such rights, preferences or privileges permit such transfer, sell such rights, preferences or privileges at public or private sale, at such place or places and upon such terms as it may deem proper. The net proceeds of any such sale shall, subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2, be distributed by the Depositary to the Record Holders of Receipts entitled thereto as provided by Section 4.1 in the case of a distribution received in cash. The Corporation shall notify the Depositary whether registration under the Securities Act of the securities to which any rights, preferences or privileges relate is required in order for Holders of Receipts to be offered or sold the securities to which such rights, preferences or privileges relate, and the Corporation agrees with the Depositary that it will file promptly a registration statement pursuant to the Securities Act with respect to such rights, preferences or privileges and securities and use its best efforts and take all steps available to it to cause such registration statement to become effective sufficiently in advance of the expiration of such rights, preferences or privileges to enable such Holders to exercise such rights, preferences or privileges. In no event shall the Depositary make available to the Holders of Receipts any right, preference or privilege to subscribe for or to purchase any securities unless and until it has received written notice from the Corporation that such registration statement shall have become effective, or the Corporation shall have provided to the Depositary an opinion of counsel to the effect that the offering and sale of such securities to the Holders are exempt from registration under the provisions of the Securities Act. The Corporation shall notify the Depositary whether any other action under the laws of any jurisdiction or any governmental or administrative authorization, consent or permit is required in order for such rights, preferences or privileges to be made available to Holders of Receipts, and the Corporation agrees with the Depositary that the Corporation will use its reasonable best efforts to take such action or obtain such authorization, consent or permit sufficiently in advance of the expiration of such rights, preferences or privileges to enable such Holders to exercise such rights, preferences or privileges. The Depositary will not be deemed to have any knowledge of any item for which it is supposed to receive notification under any section of this Deposit Agreement unless and until it has received such notification in writing. Section 4.4 Notice of Dividends, etc.; Fixing Record Date for Holders of Receipts. Whenever any cash dividend or other cash distribution shall become payable or any distribution other than cash shall be made, or if rights, preferences or privileges shall at any time be offered, with respect to the Series V Preferred Stock, or whenever the Depositary shall receive notice of any meeting at which holders of the Series V Preferred Stock are entitled to vote or of which holders of the Series V Preferred Stock are entitled to notice, or

10 whenever the Depositary and the Corporation shall decide it is appropriate, the Depositary shall in each such instance fix a record date (which shall be the same date as the record date fixed by the Corporation with respect to or otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Series V Preferred Stock) for the determination of the Holders of Receipts who shall be entitled to receive such dividend, distribution, rights, preferences or privileges or the net proceeds of the sale thereof, or to give instructions for the exercise of voting rights at any such meeting, or who shall be entitled to notice of such meeting or for any other appropriate reasons. Section 4.5 Voting Rights. Subject to the provisions of the Certificate of Designations, upon receipt of notice of any meeting at which the holders of the Series V Preferred Stock are entitled to vote, the Depositary shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, mail to the Record Holders of Receipts, determined on the record date as set forth in Section 4.4, a notice prepared by the Corporation which shall contain (i) such information as is contained in such notice of meeting and (ii) a statement that the Holders may, subject to any applicable restrictions, instruct the Depositary as to the exercise of the voting rights pertaining to the amount of Series V Preferred Stock represented by their respective Depositary Shares (including an express indication that instructions may be given to the Depositary to give a discretionary proxy to a person designated by the Corporation) and a brief statement as to the manner in which such instructions may be given. Upon the written request of the Holders of Receipts on the relevant record date, the Depositary shall endeavor insofar as practicable to vote or cause to be voted, in accordance with the instructions set forth in such requests, the maximum number of whole shares of Series V Preferred Stock represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by all Receipts as to which any particular voting instructions are received. The Corporation hereby agrees to take all reasonable action which may be deemed necessary by the Depositary in order to enable the Depositary to vote such Series V Preferred Stock or cause such Series V Preferred Stock to be voted. In the absence of specific instructions from the Holder of a Receipt, the Depositary will not vote (but, at its discretion, may appear at any meeting with respect to such Series V Preferred Stock unless directed to the contrary by the Holders of all the Receipts) to the extent of the Series V Preferred Stock represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipts of such Holder. Section 4.6 Changes Affecting Deposited Securities and Reclassifications, Recapitalizations, etc. Upon any change in par or stated value, split-up, combination or any other reclassification of the Series V Preferred Stock, subject to the provisions of the Certificate of Designations, or upon any recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation affecting the Corporation or to which it is a party, the Depositary may in its discretion with the approval of, and shall upon the written instructions of the Corporation, and (in either case) in such manner as the Depositary may deem equitable, (i) make such adjustments as are certified by the Corporation in the fraction of an interest represented by one Depositary Share in one share of Series V Preferred Stock and in the ratio of the redemption price per Depositary Share to the redemption price per share of Series V Preferred Stock, in each case as may be necessary fully to reflect the effects of such change in par or stated value, split-up, combination or other reclassification of the Series V Preferred Stock, or of such recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation and (ii) treat any securities which shall be received by the Depositary in exchange for or upon conversion of or in respect of the Series V Preferred Stock as new deposited securities so received in exchange for or upon conversion or in respect of such Series V Preferred Stock. In any such case the Corporation in its discretion may direct the Depositary to, or the Depositary may in its discretion, and with the written approval of the Corporation, execute and deliver additional Receipts or may call for the surrender of all outstanding Receipts to be exchanged for new Receipts specifically describing such new deposited securities. Anything to the contrary herein notwithstanding, Holders of Receipts shall have the right from and after the effective date of any such change in par or stated value, split-up, combination or other reclassification of the Series V Preferred Stock or any such recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation to surrender such Receipts to the Depositary with instructions to convert, exchange or surrender the Series V Preferred Stock represented thereby only into or for, as the case may be, the kind and amount of shares and other securities and property and cash into which the Series V Preferred Stock represented by such Receipts might have been converted or for which such Series V Preferred Stock might have been exchanged or surrendered immediately prior to the effective date of such transaction. Section 4.7 Delivery of Reports. The Depositary shall furnish to Holders of Receipts any reports and communications received from the Corporation which are received by the Depositary, as holder of the Series V Preferred Stock, and which the Corporation is required to furnish to the holders of the Series V Preferred Stock.

11 Section 4.8 Lists of Receipt Holders. Reasonably promptly upon request from time to time by the Corporation, at the sole expense of the Corporation, the Depositary shall furnish to it a list, as of the most recent practicable date, of the names, addresses and holdings of Depositary Shares of all registered Holders of Receipts. ARTICLE V THE DEPOSITARY, THE DEPOSITARY’S AGENTS, THE REGISTRAR AND THE CORPORATION Section 5.1 Maintenance of Offices, Agencies and Transfer Books by the Depositary; Registrar. Upon execution of this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary shall maintain at the Depositary’s Office, facilities for the execution and delivery, registration and registration of transfer, surrender and exchange of Receipts, and at the offices of the Depositary’s Agents, if any, facilities for the delivery, registration of transfer, surrender and exchange of Receipts, all in accordance with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement. The Registrar shall keep books at the Depositary’s Office for the registration and transfer of Receipts. Upon direction by the Corporation and with reasonable notice to the Registrar, the Depositary shall open its books for inspection by the Record Holders of Receipts as directed by the Corporation; provided that any Holder shall be granted such right by the Corporation only after certifying that such inspection shall be for a proper purpose reasonably related to such person’s interest as an owner of Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipts. The Registrar may close such books, at any time or from time to time, when deemed expedient by it in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder, or because of any requirement of law or any government, governmental body or commission, stock exchange or any applicable self-regulatory body. If the Receipts or the Depositary Shares evidenced thereby or the Series V Preferred Stock represented by such Depositary Shares shall be listed on one or more national securities exchanges, the Corporation will appoint a Registrar for registration of the Receipts or Depositary Shares in accordance with any requirements of such exchange. Such Registrar (which may be the Depositary if so permitted by the requirements of any such exchange) may be removed and a substitute registrar appointed by the Corporation. If the Receipts, Depositary Shares or Series V Preferred Stock are listed on one or more other securities exchanges, the Registrar will, at the request of the Corporation, arrange such facilities for the delivery, registration, registration of transfer, surrender and exchange of the Receipts, Depositary Shares or Series V Preferred Stock as may be required by law or applicable securities exchange regulation. Section 5.2 Prevention of or Delay in Performance by the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agents, the Registrar or the Corporation. Neither the Depositary nor any Depositary’s Agent nor any Registrar nor the Corporation shall incur any liability to any Holder of a Receipt if by reason of any provision of any present or future law, or regulation thereunder, of the United States of America or of any other governmental authority or, in the case of the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent or the Registrar, by reason of any provision, present or future, of the Corporation’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (including the Certificate of Designations) or by reason of any act of God or other circumstance beyond the control of the relevant party, the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, the Registrar or the Corporation shall be prevented, delayed or forbidden from, or subjected to any penalty on account of, doing or performing any act or thing which the terms of this Deposit Agreement provide shall be done or performed; nor shall the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar or the Corporation incur liability to any Holder of a Receipt (i) by reason of any nonperformance or delay, caused as aforesaid, in the performance of any act or thing which the terms of this Deposit Agreement shall provide shall or may be done or performed, or (ii) by reason of any exercise of, or failure to exercise, any discretion provided for in this Deposit Agreement except as otherwise explicitly set forth in this Deposit Agreement. Section 5.3 Obligations of the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agents, the Registrar and the Corporation. Neither the Depositary nor any Depositary’s Agent nor any Registrar nor the Corporation assumes any obligation or shall be subject to any liability under this Deposit Agreement to Holders of Receipts other than for its gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith (which gross negligence, willful misconduct, or bad faith must be determined by a final, non-appealable order, judgement, decree or ruling of a court of competent jurisdiction).

12 Notwithstanding anything in this Deposit Agreement to the contrary, neither the Depositary, nor the Depositary’s Agent nor any Registrar nor the Corporation shall be liable in any event for special, punitive, incidental, indirect or consequential losses or damages of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to loss of anticipated profit) occasioned by breach of any provision of this Deposit Agreement, even if apprised of the possibility of such damages. Further, the aggregate liability of the Depositary; any Depositary Agent; or any Registrar during any term of this Deposit Agreement with respect to, arising from, or arising in connection with this Deposit Agreement, or from all services provided or omitted to be provided under this Deposit Agreement, whether in contract, or in tort, or otherwise, is limited to, and shall not exceed, the amounts paid hereunder by the Corporation to Depositary as fees and charges, but not including reimbursable expenses. Neither the Depositary nor any Depositary’s Agent nor any Registrar nor the Corporation shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any action, suit or other proceeding in respect of the Series V Preferred Stock, the Depositary Shares or the Receipts which in its opinion may involve it in expense or liability unless indemnity satisfactory to it against all expense and liability be furnished as often as may be reasonably required. Neither the Depositary nor any Depositary’s Agent nor any Registrar nor the Corporation shall be liable for any action or any failure to act by it in reliance upon the written advice of legal counsel or accountants, or information from any person presenting Series V Preferred Stock for deposit, any Holder of a Receipt or any other person believed by it in good faith to be competent to give such information. The Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar and the Corporation may each rely and shall each be protected in acting upon or omitting to act upon any written notice, request, direction or other document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. The Depositary shall not be responsible for any failure to carry out any instruction to vote any of the shares of Series V Preferred Stock or for the manner or effect of any such vote made, as long as any such action or inaction is not taken in bad faith (which bad faith must be determined by a final, non-appealable order, judgement, decree or ruling of a court of competent jurisdiction). The Depositary undertakes, and any Registrar shall be required to undertake, to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Deposit Agreement, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Deposit Agreement against the Depositary or any Registrar. The Depositary, the Depositary’s Agents, and any Registrar may own and deal in any class of securities of the Corporation and its affiliates and in Receipts or become pecuniarily interested in any transaction in which the Corporation or its affiliates may be interested or contract with or lend money to or otherwise act as fully or freely as if it were not the Depositary, Depositary’s Agent or Registrar hereunder. The Depositary may also act as transfer agent or registrar of any of the securities of the Corporation and its affiliates. The Depositary shall not be under any liability for interest on any monies at any time received by it pursuant to any of the provisions of this Deposit Agreement or of the Receipts, the Depositary Shares or the Series V Preferred Stock nor shall it be obligated to segregate such monies from other monies held by it, except as required by law. The Depositary shall not be responsible for advancing funds on behalf of the Corporation and shall have no duty or obligation to make any payments if it has not timely received sufficient funds to make timely payments. It is intended that neither the Depositary nor any Depositary’s Agent nor the Registrar, acting as the Depositary’s Agent or Registrar, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be an “issuer” of the securities under the federal securities laws or applicable state securities laws, it being expressly understood and agreed that the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent and the Registrar are acting only in a ministerial capacity as Depositary or Registrar for the Shares; provided, however, that the Depositary agrees to comply with all information reporting and withholding requirements applicable to it under law or this Deposit Agreement in its capacity as Depositary. The Depositary, any Depositary Agent, or any Registrar will not be under any duty or responsibility to ensure compliance with any applicable federal or state securities laws in connection with the issuance, transfer or exchange of the Series V Preferred Stock, Depositary Shares or Receipts. Neither the Depositary (or its officers, directors, employees or agents) nor any Depositary’s Agent nor the Registrar makes any representation or has any responsibility as to the validity of any registration statement pursuant to which the Depositary Shares are registered under the Securities Act, the Series V Preferred Stock, the Depositary Shares or the Receipts (except for its counter-signatures thereon) or any instruments referred to therein or herein, or as to the

13 correctness of any statement made therein or herein; provided, however, that the Depositary is responsible for its representations in this Deposit Agreement. In the event the Depositary or any Registrar believes any ambiguity or uncertainty exists hereunder or in any notice, instruction, direction, request or other communication, paper or document received by the Depositary hereunder, or in the administration of any of the provisions of this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary or such Registrar shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, omitting or suffering to take any action hereunder, the Depositary or such Registrar may, in its sole discretion upon written notice to the Corporation, refrain from taking any action and shall be fully protected and shall not be liable in any way to the Corporation, any Holders of Receipts or any other person or entity for refraining from taking such action, unless the Depositary or such Registrar receives written instructions or a certificate signed by the Corporation which eliminates such ambiguity or uncertainty to the satisfaction of the Depositary or such Registrar, or which proves or establishes the applicable matter to its satisfaction. The Depositary undertakes not to issue any Receipt other than to evidence the Depositary Shares representing interests in the shares of Series V Preferred Stock that have been delivered to and are then on deposit with the Depositary. The Depositary also undertakes not to sell, except as provided herein, pledge or lend Depositary Shares or any shares of deposited Series V Preferred Stock by it as Depositary. In the event the Depositary, any Depositary Agent, or any Registrar shall receive conflicting claims, requests or instructions from any Holders of Receipts, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, the Depositary, such Depositary Agent, or such Registrar, as applicable, shall be entitled to act on such claims, requests or instructions received from the Corporation, and shall be entitled to the indemnification set forth in Section 5.6 hereof in connection with any action so taken. From time to time, the Corporation may provide the Depositary or any Registrar with instructions concerning the services performed by the Depositary under this Deposit Agreement. In addition, at any time, the Depositary or any Registrar may apply to any officer of the Corporation for instruction, and may consult with legal counsel for the Depositary or any Registrar or the Corporation with respect to any matter arising in connection with the services to be performed by the Depositary or any Registrar under this Deposit Agreement. The Depositary or such Registrar and its respective agents and subcontractors shall not be liable and shall be indemnified by the Corporation for any action taken, suffered or omitted by the Depositary or such Registrar in reliance upon any instructions from the Corporation or upon the advice or opinion of such counsel. The Depositary or any Registrar shall not be held to have notice of any change of authority of any person, until receipt of written notice thereof from the Corporation. The Depositary, any Depositary Agent, and any Registrar hereunder: (i) shall have no duties or obligations other than those specifically set forth herein (and no implied duties or obligations), or as may subsequently be agreed to in writing by the parties; (ii) shall have no obligation to make any payment hereunder unless the Corporation shall have provided the necessary federal or other immediately available funds or securities or property, as the case may be, to pay in full the amounts due and payable with respect thereto; (iii) may rely on and shall be authorized and protected in acting or omitting to act upon any certificate, instrument, opinion, notice, letter, facsimile transmission or other document or security delivered to it and believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed by the proper party or parties, and shall have no responsibility for determining the accuracy thereof; (iv) may rely on and shall be authorized and protected in acting or omitting to act upon the written, telephonic, electronic and oral instructions given in accordance with this Deposit Agreement, with respect to any matter relating to its actions as Depositary or Registrar covered by this Deposit Agreement (or supplementing or qualifying any such actions), of officers of the Company; (v) shall not be called upon at any time to advise any person with respect to the Series V Preferred Stock, Depositary Shares or Receipts;

14 (vi) except as provided for herein, shall not be liable or responsible for any recital or statement contained in any documents relating hereto or to the Series V Preferred Stock, the Depositary Shares or Receipts; and (vii) shall not be liable in any respect on account of the identity, authority or rights of the parties (other than the Depositary, any Depositary Agent, or any Registrar, as applicable) executing or delivering or purporting to execute or deliver this Deposit Agreement or any documents or papers deposited or called for under this Deposit Agreement. The rights and obligations of the Corporation, the Depositary, and the Registrar set forth in this Section 5.3 shall survive termination of this Deposit Agreement or any resignation or succession of any Depositary, Registrar or Depositary’s Agent. Section 5.4 Resignation and Removal of the Depositary; Appointment of Successor Depositary. The Depositary may at any time resign as Depositary hereunder by delivering notice of its election to do so to the Corporation, such resignation to take effect upon the appointment of a successor Depositary and its acceptance of such appointment as hereinafter provided. The Depositary may at any time be removed by the Corporation by notice of such removal delivered to the Depositary, such removal to take effect upon the appointment of a successor Depositary hereunder and its acceptance of such appointment as hereinafter provided. In case at any time the Depositary acting hereunder shall resign or be removed, the Corporation shall, within sixty (60) days after the delivery of the notice of resignation or removal, as the case may be, appoint a successor Depositary, which shall be a bank or trust company having its principal office in the United States of America and having a combined capital and surplus, along with its affiliates, of at least $50,000,000. If no successor Depositary shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 60 days after delivery of such notice, the resigning or removed Depositary may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Depositary. Every successor Depositary shall execute and deliver to its predecessor and to the Corporation an instrument in writing accepting its appointment hereunder, and thereupon such successor Depositary, without any further act or deed, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor and for all purposes shall be the Depositary under this Deposit Agreement, and such predecessor, upon payment of all sums due it and on the written request of the Corporation, shall promptly execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor all rights and powers of such predecessor hereunder, shall duly assign, transfer and deliver all right, title and interest in the Series V Preferred Stock and any moneys or property held hereunder to such successor, and shall deliver to such successor a list of the Record Holders of all outstanding Receipts and such records, books and other information in its possession relating thereto. Any entity into or with which the Depositary may be merged, consolidated or converted shall be the successor of the Depositary without the execution or filing of any document or any further act, and notice thereof shall not be required hereunder. Such successor Depositary may authenticate the Receipts in the name of the predecessor Depositary or its own name as successor Depositary. Section 5.5 Corporate Notices and Reports. The Corporation agrees that it will deliver to the Depositary, and if requested by the Corporation the Depositary will, promptly after receipt thereof, transmit to the Record Holders of Receipts, in each case at the addresses recorded in the Depositary’s books, copies of all notices and reports (including without limitation financial statements) required by law, by the rules of any national securities exchange upon which the Series V Preferred Stock, the Depositary Shares or the Receipts are listed or by the Corporation’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (including the Certificate of Designations), to be furnished to the Record Holders of Receipts. Such transmission will be at the Corporation’s expense and the Corporation will provide the Depositary with such number of copies of such documents as the Depositary may reasonably request. In addition, the Depositary will transmit to the Record Holders of Receipts at the Corporation’s expense such other documents as may be requested by the Corporation. From time to time and after the date hereof, the Company agrees that it will perform, acknowledge and deliver or cause to be performed, acknowledged and delivered all such further and other acts, documents, instruments and

15 assurances as may be reasonably required by the Depositary for the carrying out or performing by the Depositary of its obligations under the provisions of this Deposit Agreement. Section 5.6 Indemnification by the Corporation. Subject to Section 5.3, the Corporation shall indemnify the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent and any Registrar (including each of their officers, directors, agents and employees) against, and hold each of them harmless from, any loss, damage, cost, penalty, liability or expense (including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending itself) which may arise out of acts performed, suffered or omitted to be taken in connection with this Deposit Agreement and the Receipts by the Depositary, any Registrar or any of their respective agents (including any Depositary’s Agent) and any transactions or documents contemplated hereby, except for any liability arising out of gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on the respective parts of any such person or persons (which gross negligence, willful misconduct, bad faith or fraud must be determined by a final, non-appealable order, judgement, decree or ruling of a court of competent jurisdiction). The rights of the Depositary and the obligations of the Corporation set forth in this Section 5.6 shall survive termination of this Deposit Agreement and any resignation or succession of any Depositary, Registrar or Depositary’s Agent. Section 5.7 Fees, Charges and Expenses. The Corporation agrees promptly to pay the Depositary the compensation to be agreed upon with the Corporation for all services rendered by the Depositary hereunder and to reimburse the Depositary for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses) incurred by the Depositary without gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on its part (or on the part of any agent or Depositary Agent) in connection with the services rendered by it (or such agent or Depositary Agent) hereunder (which gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith must be determined by a final, non-appealable order, judgement, decree or ruling of a court of competent jurisdiction). The Corporation shall pay all charges of the Depositary in connection with the initial deposit of the Series V Preferred Stock and the initial issuance of the Depositary Shares, all withdrawals of shares of Series V Preferred Stock by owners of Depositary Shares, and any redemption or exchange of the Series V Preferred Stock at the option of the Corporation. The Corporation shall pay all transfer and other taxes and governmental charges arising solely from the existence of the depositary arrangements. All other transfer and other taxes and governmental charges shall be at the expense of Holders of Depositary Shares evidenced by Receipts. If, at the request of a Holder of Receipts, the Depositary incurs charges or expenses for which the Corporation is not otherwise liable hereunder, such Holder will be liable for such charges and expenses; provided, however, that the Depositary may, at its sole option, require a Holder of a Receipt to prepay the Depositary any charge or expense the Depositary has been asked to incur at the request of such Holder of Receipts. The Depositary shall present its statement for charges and expenses to the Corporation at such intervals as the Corporation and the Depositary may agree. ARTICLE VI AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION Section 6.1 Amendment. The form of the Receipts and any provisions of this Deposit Agreement may at any time and from time to time be amended by agreement between the Corporation and the Depositary in any respect which they may deem necessary or desirable; provided, however, that no such amendment which shall materially and adversely alter the rights of the Holders of Receipts shall be effective against the Holders of Receipts unless such amendment shall have been approved by the Holders of Receipts representing in the aggregate at least a two-thirds majority of the Depositary Shares then outstanding. Every Holder of an outstanding Receipt at the time any such amendment becomes effective shall be deemed, by continuing to hold such Receipt, to consent and agree to such amendment and to be bound by the Deposit Agreement as amended thereby. In no event shall any amendment impair the right, subject to the provisions of Sections 2.5 and 2.6 and Article III, of any owner of Depositary Shares to surrender any Receipt evidencing such Depositary Shares to the Depositary with instructions to deliver to the Holder the Series V Preferred Stock and all money and other property, if any, represented thereby, except in order to comply with mandatory provisions of applicable law or the rules and regulations of any governmental body, agency or commission, or applicable securities exchange. As a condition precedent to the Depositary’s execution of any amendment, the Corporation shall deliver to the Depositary a certificate from a duly authorized officer of the Corporation that states that the proposed amendment is in compliance with the terms of this Section 6.1.

16 Section 6.2 Termination. This Deposit Agreement may be terminated by the Company upon not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Depositary if the holders of Receipts evidencing in the aggregate not less than two-thirds of the Depositary Shares outstanding then outstanding consent to such termination, whereupon the Depositary shall deliver or make available to each holder of a Receipt, upon surrender of the Receipt held by such holder, such number of whole or fractional shares of deposited Preferred Stock as are represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt, together with any other property held by the Depositary in respect of such Receipt. This Deposit Agreement will automatically terminate if (i) all outstanding Depositary Shares shall have been redeemed pursuant to Section 2.9 or (ii) there shall have been made a final distribution in respect of the Series V Preferred Stock in connection with any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation and such distribution shall have been distributed to the Holders of Receipts representing Depositary Shares pursuant to Section 4.1 or 4.2, as applicable. Upon the termination of this Deposit Agreement, the parties hereto shall be discharged from all obligations under this Deposit Agreement except for their respective obligations under Sections 5.3, 5.6 and 5.7, and the rights of the Depositary set forth in Sections 5.3, 5.6 and 5.7 shall survive the termination of this Deposit Agreement and any resignation, removal or succession of the Depositary.
