CAUTION REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This communication contains certain forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, certain plans, expectations, goals,
projections, and statements, which are not historical facts and are subject to numerous assumptions, risks, and uncertainties.
Statements that do not describe historical or current facts, including statements about beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking
statements. Forward-looking statements may be identified by words such as expect, anticipate, believe, intend, estimate, plan, target,
goal, or similar expressions, or future or conditional verbs such as will, may, might, should, would, could, or similar variations. The
forward-looking statements are intended to be subject to the safe harbor provided by Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, Section
21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
While there is no assurance that any list of risks and uncertainties or risk factors is complete, below are certain factors which could
cause actual results to differ materially from those contained or implied in the forward-looking statements: changes in general economic,
political, or industry conditions; uncertainty in U.S. fiscal and monetary policy, including the interest rate policies of the Federal Reserve
Board; volatility and disruptions in global capital and credit markets; movements in interest rates; competitive pressures on product
pricing and services; success, impact, and timing of our business strategies, including market acceptance of any new products or
services implementing our “Fair Play” banking philosophy; the nature, extent, timing, and results of governmental actions, examinations,
reviews, reforms, regulations, and interpretations, including those related to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer
Protection Act and the Basel III regulatory capital reforms, as well as those involving the OCC, Federal Reserve, FDIC, and CFPB; the
possibility that the anticipated benefits of the merger with FirstMerit Corporation are not realized when expected or at all, including as a
result of the impact of, or problems arising from, the integration of the two companies or as a result of the strength of the economy and
competitive factors in the areas where we do business; diversion of management’s attention from ongoing business operations and
opportunities; potential adverse reactions or changes to business or employee relationships, including those resulting from the
completion of the merger with FirstMerit Corporation; our ability to complete the integration of FirstMerit Corporation successfully; and
other factors that may affect our future results. Additional factors that could cause results to differ materially from those described above
can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 and our subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form
10-Q, including for the quarters ended March 31, 2016, June 30, 2016, and September 30, 2016, each of which is on file with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and available in the “Investor Relations” section of our website,
http://www.huntington.com, under the heading “Publications and Filings” and in other documents we file with the SEC.
All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and are based on information available at that time. We do not
assume any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect circumstances or events that occur after the date the forward-
looking statements were made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events except as required by federal securities laws. As
forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties, caution should be exercised against placing undue reliance on
such statements.
