2014 RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT GRANT AGREEMENT

THIS RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT GRANT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of the date in the box above labeled “Date of Grant” by Huntington Bancshares Incorporated, a Maryland corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Company”), and is hereby communicated to the employee named in the box above (the “Employee”). Undefined capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in the Company’s 2012 Long-Term Incentive Plan as may be amended from time to time (the “Plan”).

WHEREAS, the Company maintains the Plan.

WHEREAS, pursuant to Article 8 of the Plan, the Committee may grant awards of Restricted Stock Units to employees, and have such grants settled in shares of the Company’s common stock, without par value (“Shares”).

WHEREAS, the Company desires to compensate the Employee with a grant of Restricted Stock Units for the Employee’s future services to the Company.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, the Company grants the Employee an Award of Restricted Stock Units under the following terms and conditions:

The Company, by authority of the Committee, hereby grants to the Employee an Award of the number of Restricted Stock Units identified above (the “Grant”) to be issued in accordance with all of the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan. The Restricted Stock Units will be a bookkeeping entry (the “RSU Account”), and each Restricted Stock Unit shall be equivalent to one Share. All terms and conditions set forth in the Plan are deemed to be incorporated herein in their entirety.

		Huntington Bancshares Incorporated Restricted Stock Unit Grant Agreement

The number of Restricted Stock Units granted pursuant to this Agreement shall be credited to the Employee’s RSU Account. Each RSU Account shall be maintained on the books of the Company until full payment of the balance thereof has been made to the Employee (or the Employee’s beneficiaries if the Employee is deceased). No funds shall be set aside or earmarked for any RSU Account, which shall be purely a bookkeeping device.

(a) Except as provided in this Agreement, the Employee’s Restricted Stock Units shall vest as follows:

(1) If the Employee is continuously employed by the Company through the third anniversary of the Date of Grant, 50% of the Employee’s Restricted Stock Units in the Employee’s Restricted Stock Unit Account will vest on such date.

(2) If the Employee is continuously employed by the Company through the fourth anniversary of the Date of Grant, the remaining 50% of the Employee’s Restricted Stock Units in the Employee’s Restricted Stock Unit Account will vest on such date.

(3) Notwithstanding any provision in items (1)-(2) above, if on December 31^st before the applicable vesting date described above, the Company’s Tier 1 Common Equity Ratio is less than the goal set forth in the Company’s Capital Management Policy (currently 7.00%), the Employee’s Restricted Stock Units that otherwise would have vested on such date shall instead vest on the first applicable anniversary of the Date of Grant after the December 31^st in which the Company’s Tier 1 Common Equity Ratio is greater than or equal to the goal set forth in the Company’s Capital Management Policy. However, if the Company’s Tier 1 Common Equity Ratio remains less than the goal set forth in the Company’s Capital Management Policy for a period of two continuous years after the otherwise applicable vesting date described in items (1)-(2) above, the Employee shall not vest in that 1/2 share of the Restricted Stock Units and shall instead forfeit such Restricted Stock Units.

(b) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, if, on or after the date that is six months after the Date of Grant, and before the fourth anniversary of the Date of Grant, the Employee’s employment or service with the Company terminates because of a Permitted Termination, the Employee shall vest in a prorated number of Shares (with any fractional Shares rounded up to the next whole number) equal to the number of Restricted Stock Units subject to Grant times one of the following two fractions, as applicable:

(1) If the Employee terminates service on or before the third anniversary of the Date of Grant, the numerator of the fraction shall be the number, which in no event shall be greater than 36, of all full and partial months (with partial months being counted as full months) that passed beginning with the month that contains the Date of Grant and ending with the month in which the Employee’s termination occurred. The denominator of the fraction shall be 72.

(2) If the Employee terminates service after the third anniversary of the Date of Grant but before the fourth anniversary of the Date of Grant, the numerator of the fraction shall be the number, which in no event shall be greater than 12, of all full and partial months (with partial months being counted as full months) that passed beginning with the month that contains the third anniversary of the Date of Grant and ending with the month in which the Employee’s termination occurred. The denominator of the fraction shall be 24. The number of shares in which the Employee vests under this subsection (b)(2) shall vest in addition to the number of shares previously vested under subsection (a)(1) above.

For purposes of this Agreement, a “Permitted Termination” means (i) the Employee’s employment or service with the Company terminates due to Retirement, Disability, or death or (ii) the Company terminates the Employee without Cause (as defined in Section 2.5 of the Plan).

(a) If, before the fourth anniversary of the Date of Grant, or if later, the applicable anniversary of the Date of Grant described in Section 3(a)(3) of this Agreement immediately following the December 31^st in which the Company’s Tier 1 Common Equity Ratio is greater than or equal to the goal set forth in the Company’s Capital Management Policy, the Employee’s employment or service with the Company is terminated for any reason other than a Permitted Termination, all of the Employee’s unvested RSUs and any unvested cash dividends shall be forfeited.

(b) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Committee may cause the Employee to forfeit all unvested RSUs and require repayment of any amount previously paid under this Agreement in accordance with the terms of the Huntington Bancshares Incorporated Recoupment/Clawback Policy (“the Policy”), any other applicable policy of the Company, and any other applicable laws and regulations. The Policy is available on the Risk Management and Corporate Policy home page of the Huntington intranet.

(c) This RSU grant is subject to acceptance of all the terms, conditions and limitations of the Plan. The Plan may be amended from time to time, including but not limited to provisions on tax withholding and forfeiture. This RSU grant is subject to such rules and regulations that the Committee may adopt for administration of the Plan, and to all applicable laws, rules and regulations, and to such approvals by any governmental agencies or national securities exchanges as may be required.

		Huntington Bancshares Incorporated Restricted Stock Unit Grant Agreement

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control that occurs on or after the date that is six months after the Date of Grant, the Employee shall become immediately vested in 100% of the Restricted Stock Units and any related cash dividends with respect to such Restricted Stock Units in the Employee’s RSU Account.

The Company, or its transfer agent, will convert the Restricted Stock Units in the Employee’s RSU Account into Shares and deliver the total number of Shares due to the Employee within 60 days after the date the Restricted Stock Units vest or as soon as administratively possible after such date, except as otherwise provided in Section 13 below. However, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, if, in the reasonable determination of the Company, an Employee is a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the guidance promulgated thereunder (“Code Section 409A”), then, if necessary to avoid the imposition on the Employee of excise tax and interest under Code Section 409A, the Company shall not deliver the Shares otherwise payable upon the Employee’s termination and separation of service until the date that is 30 days after 6 months following the Employee’s termination and separation of service from the Company. The delivery of the Shares shall be subject to payment of the applicable withholding tax liability as set forth in Section 8. If the Employee dies before the Company has distributed any portion of the vested Restricted Stock Units, the Company will transfer any Shares payable with respect to the vested Restricted Stock Units in accordance with the Employee’s written beneficiary designation or to the Employee’s estate if no written beneficiary designation is provided. If the Employee did not have a will, any Shares payable with respect to the vested Restricted Stock Units will be distributed in accordance with the laws of descent and distribution.

If the Employee is eligible to participate in the Huntington Bancshares Incorporated Executive Deferred Compensation Plan, or any successor thereto (the “Deferred Compensation Plan”), the Employee may defer the receipt of Shares relating to the RSUs beyond the date the Shares otherwise would be payable under this Agreement and under the rules and procedures established by the Company under the Deferred Compensation Plan. The Employee’s election to defer receipt of such Shares shall be made on a form provided by the Company, which shall specify the amount of Shares to be deferred and the distribution date for such Shares. The Employee may elect to defer receipt of such Shares until the earlier of: (i) the date of the Employee’s Separation from Service, (ii) the date of the Employee’s Retirement, or (iii) the Employee’s specified date of payment. Elections to defer will become irrevocable in accordance with the terms of the Deferred Compensation Plan and with Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Shares will not be issued and the Employee shall have no voting rights of a stockholder in the Company to the extent that the Employee has elected to defer the issuance and receipt of such Shares; provided, however, that the Employee shall continue to receive dividend equivalent credits during the period of deferral credited to the RSU Account at such times as provided in this Agreement.

The Company shall have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require the Employee to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, and local taxes, domestic or foreign, required by law or regulation to be withheld with respect to any taxable event arising as a result of this Agreement.

During any Period(s) of Restriction, the Employee shall have no right to transfer, sell, pledge, assign, or hypothecate, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, any rights with respect to the Employee’s Award of RSUs. No RSU shall be subject to execution, attachment, or similar process.

The right of the Employee or his or her beneficiary to receive a distribution hereunder shall be an unsecured claim against the general assets of the Company, and neither the Employee nor his or her beneficiary shall have any rights in or against any amounts credited to the Employee’s RSU Account or any other specific assets of the Company. All amounts credited to the Employee’s RSU Account shall constitute general assets of the Company and may be disposed of by the Company at such time and for such purposes, as it may deem appropriate.

Until the Restricted Stock Units have vested and Shares have been issued, Employee shall not have any voting rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to the Restricted Stock Units.

To the extent that cash dividends are paid on Shares after the Date of Grant and before the date the Employee receives the Shares subject to this Grant, the Employee shall receive credits of cash in a dividend bookkeeping account (the “Dividend Account”). Such cash credits shall be equal in value (based on the reported dividend rate on the date dividends were paid) to the amount of dividends paid on the Shares represented by the Restricted Stock Units in the Employee’s RSU Account. The Employee shall vest in the cash in the Dividend Account in accordance with Section 3 of the Agreement in the same manner that the Employee vests in the Restricted Stock Units held in the RSU Account. On the date that the Employee receives a distribution of Shares from the RSU Account (provided that such date is at least six months after the Date of Grant), the Employee shall also receive a distribution of the cash in the Dividend Account.

In the event of a stock split, stock dividend, spin off, merger, or other event described in Section 4.3 of the Plan, the number of Restricted Stock Units in the Employee’s RSU Account shall be adjusted in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.3 of the Plan.

The delivery of all or any of the Shares shall only be effective at such time that the issuance of such Shares will not violate any state or federal securities or other laws. The Company is under no obligation to effect any registration of Shares under the Securities Act of 1933 or to effect any state registration or qualification of the Shares. The Company may, in its sole discretion, delay the delivery of the Shares or place restrictive legends on such Shares in order to ensure that the issuance of any Shares will be in compliance with federal or state securities laws and the rules of the NASDAQ Global Select or any other exchange upon which the Company’s common stock is traded. If the Company delays the delivery of the Shares in order to ensure compliance with any state or federal securities or other laws, the Company shall deliver the Shares at the earliest date at which the Company reasonably believes that such delivery will not cause such violation, or at such other date that may be permitted under Code Section 409A.

The Grant is made under the Plan. In the event of a conflict between one or more provisions of this Agreement and one or more provisions of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall govern. A copy of the Plan is available upon request by contacting the Human Resources Department at the Company’s executive offices.

The Employee understands and agrees that this Agreement does not impact in any way the right of the Company to terminate or change the terms of the employment of Employee at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without Cause, nor confer upon any right to continue in the employ of the Company.
