Use of Proceeds
In consultation with our banking regulators, we may notify the U.S. Department of the Treasury (the "U.S. Treasury") of our
intent to repurchase the 3,000,000 shares of our Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B (the "Series B
Preferred Stock") and/or the warrant to purchase up to 14,516,129 shares of our common stock ($0.01 par value) (the
"Warrant"), both purchased by the U.S. Treasury under the Capital Purchase Program (the "CPP") under the Troubled Asset
Relief Program (the "TARP"). If we repurchase the Series B Preferred Stock and/or the Warrant, we may use the net proceeds
of the offering of the Notes to fund a portion of the repurchase price. If we do not use the net proceeds of the offering for that
purpose, we will use them for general corporate purposes, which may include contributing some portion of the net proceeds
to the capital of our subsidiaries who in turn will use contributed amounts for their general corporate purposes.
Recent Development
Supervisory Capital Assessment Program
As part of the U.S. federal government's Financial Stability Plan, on February 25, 2009, the U.S. Treasury announced
preliminary details regarding the Capital Assistance Program (the "CAP"), which, according to the U.S. Treasury, is designed
to restore confidence throughout the financial system that the largest U.S. banking institutions will have a sufficient capital
cushion for larger than expected potential future losses, should they occur due to a more severe economic environment, and
to support lending to creditworthy borrowers. Pursuant to the CAP, the capital needs of major U.S. banking institutions are
being evaluated to determine whether an additional capital buffer would be warranted and, if warranted, the U.S. Treasury
committed to make capital available to eligible institutions if they were unable to raise the necessary capital through private
sources.
To implement the CAP, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Federal Reserve Banks, the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation, and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency commenced a review of the capital needs
of the largest U.S. banking institutions. This review is called the Supervisory Capital Assessment Program (the "SCAP"). The
SCAP review process involved a forward-looking capital assessment, or "stress test", of all domestic bank holding companies
with assets of more than $100 billion at December 31, 2008, which includes us. The stress test is intended to estimate credit
losses, revenues and reserve needs for each of these bank holding companies in 2009 and 2010 under two macroeconomic
scenarios, one reflecting a consensus expectation for the depth and duration of the recession and a second more adverse
scenario that was designed to reflect a recession that is longer and more severe than consensus expectations. Based on the
SCAP review, regulatory supervisors are making a determination as to the extent to which a bank holding company would
need to augment its capital, whether through additional capital or a change in the composition of its capital, in order to
establish a suitable buffer against higher than expected losses and ensure that the bank holding company would remain
sufficiently capitalized over the next two years and be able to lend to creditworthy borrowers should such losses materialize
or if faced with a more adverse macroeconomic scenario.
On April 24, 2009, the Federal Reserve Board released a white paper describing the process and methodologies employed by
federal bank supervisory agencies with respect to the SCAP. The white paper states that the initial assessment of capital
needs for participating institutions was conveyed to such institutions in late April 2009. We, like all bank holding companies
participating in the SCAP, are subject to broad confidentiality provisions that prohibit us from disclosing information
regarding the SCAP and any information we have received relating to any initial assessments of our capital requirements. As
a result, we cannot provide you with any information relating to the initial assessment of our capital that we received as part
of the SCAP review process. We expect to receive our final SCAP assessment in May 2009. Pursuant to the SCAP, a bank
holding company that has been directed to augment its capital would have six months to raise additional capital or change the
composition of its capital and would be permitted to raise the capital through private sources or, alternatively, the U.S.
Treasury would make the necessary capital available through the issuance to the U.S. Treasury of mandatory convertible
preferred stock available under the CAP.
Information related to the SCAP is available on the website of the Federal Reserve Board at www.federalreserve.gov.

Risk Factors
An investment in our securities is subject to certain risks. Before you decide to invest in the Notes, you should consider the
risk factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, the other documents
incorporated by reference into this pricing supplement or the accompanying prospectus supplement and prospectus, and the
additional risk factor set forth below.
Legislative and regulatory actions taken now or in the future to address the current liquidity and credit crisis in the
financial industry may significantly affect our financial condition, results of operation, liquidity or stock price.
Current economic conditions, particularly in the financial markets, have resulted in government regulatory agencies and
political bodies placing increased focus on and scrutiny of the financial services industry. The U.S. government has
intervened on an unprecedented scale, responding to what has been commonly referred to as the financial crisis. In addition
to the CPP under the TARP announced last fall and the new CAP announced this spring, the U.S. government has taken steps
that include enhancing the liquidity support available to financial institutions, establishing a commercial paper funding
facility, temporarily guaranteeing money market funds and certain types of debt issuances, and increasing insurance on bank
deposits, and the U.S. Congress, through the Emergency Economy Stabilization Act of 2008 and the American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act of 2009, has imposed a number of restrictions and limitations on the operations of financial services firms
participating in the federal programs.
These programs subject us and other financial institutions who participate in them to additional restrictions, oversight and
costs that may have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations or the price of our common
stock. In addition, new proposals for legislation continue to be introduced in the U.S. Congress that could further
substantially increase regulation of the financial services industry and impose restrictions on the operations and general
ability of firms within the industry to conduct business consistent with historical practices, including as relates to
compensation, interest rates, the impact of bankruptcy proceedings on consumer real property mortgages and otherwise.
Federal and state regulatory agencies also frequently adopt changes to their regulations and/or change the manner in which
existing regulations are applied. We cannot predict the substance or impact of pending or future legislation, regulation or the
application thereof. Compliance with such current and potential regulation and scrutiny may significantly increase our costs,
impede the efficiency of our internal business processes, require us to increase our regulatory capital and limit our ability to
pursue business opportunities in an efficient manner.
