Each series of preferred stock has a liquidation value and redemption price per share of $1,000, plus any declared and unpaid dividends. All preferred stock, with the exception of Series A, has no stated maturity and redemption is solely at the option of the Company. Under current rules, any redemption of the preferred stock is subject to prior approval of the FRB.
Preferred Series A Stock issued and outstanding
Each share of the Series A Preferred Stock is non-voting and may be converted at any time, at the option of the holder, into 83.668 shares of common stock of Huntington, which represents an approximate initial conversion price of $11.95 per share of common stock. Since April 15, 2013, at the option of Huntington, the Series A Preferred Stock is subject to conversion into Huntington’s common stock at the prevailing conversion rate if the closing price of Huntington’s common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price for 20 trading days during any 30 consecutive trading-day period. To exercise this right, a notice of mandatory conversion or issuance of a press release must be published by Huntington with the conversion date being no later than 20 days after providing the notice of conversion.
Preferred Series B Stock issued and outstanding
Dividends on the Preferred B Stock will be non-cumulative and payable quarterly in arrears, when, as and if authorized by the Company's board of directors or a duly authorized committee of the board and declared by the Company, at a floating rate equal to three-month LIBOR plus a spread of 2.70% per year on the liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, equivalent to $25 per depositary share. The dividend payment dates will be the fifteenth day of each January, April, July and October, commencing on January 15, 2012, or the next business day if any such day is not a business day.
The Preferred B Stock is perpetual and has no maturity date. Huntington may redeem the Preferred B Stock at its option, (i) in whole or in part, from time to time, on any dividend payment date on or after January 15, 2017 or (ii) in whole but not in part, within 90 days following a regulatory capital treatment event, in each case, at a redemption price equal to $1,000 per share (equivalent to $25 per depositary share), plus any declared and unpaid dividends and, in the case of a redemption following a regulatory capital treatment event, the pro-rated portion of dividends, whether or not declared, for the dividend period in which the such redemption occurs. If Huntington redeems the Preferred B Stock, the depositary will redeem a proportional number of depositary shares. Neither the holders of Preferred B Stock nor holders of depositary shares will have the right to require the redemption or repurchase of the Preferred B Stock. Any redemption of the Preferred B Stock is subject to Huntington's receipt of any required prior approval by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.
Preferred Series C Stock issued and outstanding
Dividends on the Preferred C Stock will be non-cumulative and payable quarterly in arrears, when, as and if authorized by the Company's board of directors or a duly authorized committee of the board and declared by the Company, at an annual rate of 5.875% per year on the liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, equivalent to $25 per depositary share. The dividend payment dates will be the fifteenth day of each January, April, July and October, commencing on October 15, 2016, or the next business day if any such day is not a business day.

If Huntington redeems the Preferred C Stock, the depositary will redeem a proportional number of depositary shares. Neither the holders of Preferred C Stock nor holders of depositary shares will have the right to require the redemption or repurchase of the Preferred C Stock or the depositary shares. Any redemption of the Preferred C Stock is subject to Huntington's receipt of any required prior approval by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

Dividends on the Preferred D Stock will be non-cumulative and payable quarterly in arrears, when, as and if authorized by the Company's board of directors or a duly authorized committee of the board and declared by the Company, at an annual rate of 6.25% per year on the liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, equivalent to $25 per depositary share. The dividend payment dates will be the fifteenth day of each January, April, July and October, commencing on July 15, 2016, or the next business day if any such day is not a business day.
The Preferred D Stock is perpetual and has no maturity date.

Any redemption of the Preferred D Stock is subject to Huntington's receipt of any required prior approval by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.
