Aug. 2, 2011 -- KeyCorp announced today that it has submitted a redemption notice to the property trustee for each trust listed below, which will result in the redemption of the trust preferred securities identified below on the redemption date specified for each security. These redemptions are consistent with an updated capital plan submitted to the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve") on June 10, 2011, which provided for one additional capital action related to the redemption of certain trust preferred securities. On August 1, 2011, the Federal Reserve informed us that it had no objection to our updated capital plan. The redemptions will be funded with existing available cash.

With that announcement, KeyCorp also indicated a desire to further enhance its tier 1 common equity capital through this additional offer. In connection with the Trust Preferred Exchange Offer, for each Trust Preferred Security of KeyCorp Capital V, KeyCorp Capital VI, KeyCorp Capital VIII, KeyCorp Capital IX and KeyCorp Capital X (collectively, the "Capital Trusts") accepted in accordance with the terms of the Trust Preferred Exchange Offer, KeyCorp will issue a number of its common shares that will be fixed according to an exchange ratio, which will be announced by us prior to 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on Monday, August 3, 2009.

Average VWAP means the arithmetic average of VWAP, as displayed under the heading Bloomberg VWAP on Bloomberg Page KEY < equity > AQR (or its equivalent or successor page if such page is unavailable), for the five consecutive trading day pricing period, which is currently expected to end on and include the Pricing Date of July 31, 2009. For each Trust Preferred Security of Capital V, KeyCorp Capital VI, KeyCorp Capital VIII, and KeyCorp Capital IX tendered after 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on Tuesday, July 21, 2009 but prior to the expiration date of the Trust Preferred Exchange Offer (and not subsequently withdrawn), KeyCorp will issue a number of its common shares equal to the quotient of $20.75 divided by the Average VWAP.

The Average VWAP and the exchange ratios will be announced in a press release before the opening of NYSE trading on Monday, August 3, 2009. This information also will be available at www.key.com/exchangeoffers and from D.F. King & Co., Inc., the information agent. The Trust Preferred Exchange Offer will expire at 11:59 p.m. New York City time, on Tuesday, August 4, 2009, unless extended or earlier terminated by KeyCorp. Trust Preferred Securities that are tendered may be withdrawn at any time prior to expiration. To receive the consideration in the Trust Preferred Exchange Offer, holders must validly tender and not withdraw their securities prior to such expiration date.
