SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and the documents incorporated herein and therein by reference contain certain
forward-looking statements, including certain plans, expectations, goals, projections, and statements, which are subject to numerous assumptions,
risks, and uncertainties. Statements that do not describe historical or current facts, including statements about our 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 Exchange Act, 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: (1) worsening of credit quality performance
due to a number of factors such as the underlying value of collateral that could prove less valuable than otherwise assumed and assumed cash flows
that may be worse than expected; (2) changes in economic, political, or industry conditions, uncertainty in U.S. fiscal and monetary policy,
including the interest rate policies of the Federal Reserve, volatility and disruptions in global capital and credit markets; (3) movements in interest
rates; (4) competitive pressures on product pricing and services; (5) success, impact, and timing of our business strategies, including market
acceptance of any new products or services implementing our "Fair Play" banking philosophy; (6) changes in accounting policies and principles
and the accuracy of our assumptions and estimates used to prepare our financial statements; (7) extended disruption of vital infrastructure; (8) the
final outcome of significant litigation or adverse legal developments in the proceedings; (9) 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 Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the
Federal Reserve, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau; (10) the outcome of judicial and
regulatory decisions regarding practices in the residential mortgage industry, including among other things, the processes followed for foreclosing
residential mortgages; (11) the possibility that the proposed acquisition of FirstMerit Corporation does not close when expected or at all because
required regulatory approvals are not received or other conditions to the closing are not satisfied on a timely basis or at all; (12) the possibility that
the anticipated benefits of the acquisition of 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 us and FirstMerit Corporation or as a result of the strength of the economy and competitive factors in
the areas where we and FirstMerit Corporation do business; (13) the possibility that the acquisition of FirstMerit Corporation may be more
expensive to complete than anticipated, including as a result of unexpected factors or events; (14) diversion of management's attention from
ongoing business operations and opportunities as a result of the acquisition of FirstMerit Corporation; (15) potential adverse reactions or changes to
business or employee relationship, including those resulting from the announcement or completion of the acquisition of FirstMerit Corporation;
(16) and our ability to complete the acquisition and integration of FirstMerit Corporation successfully. 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
Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2016 and June 30, 2016, and documents subsequently filed by us with the SEC.

Final Prospectus Supplement
Recent Developments
On January 25, 2016, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with FirstMerit Corporation
("FirstMerit"), an Ohio corporation and the parent company of FirstMerit Bank, N.A. ("FirstMerit Bank"), and West Subsidiary Corporation
("Merger Sub"), an Ohio corporation and our wholly-owned subsidiary, under which FirstMerit will merge into Huntington in a stock and
cash transaction expected to be valued at approximately $3.4 billion based on the closing share price of Huntington common stock on the day
preceding the announcement. The Merger Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub
will merge with and into FirstMerit, with FirstMerit as the surviving corporation in the merger (the "Merger"). As soon as reasonably
practicable thereafter, FirstMerit will merge with and into Huntington, with Huntington as the surviving corporation. Immediately following
the merger of FirstMerit into Huntington, or at such later time as we may determine in our sole discretion, FirstMerit's wholly-owned bank
subsidiary, FirstMerit Bank, will merge with and into the Bank, with the Bank as the surviving entity.


S-1
Table of Contents
FirstMerit is a diversified financial services company headquartered in Akron, Ohio, with reported assets of approximately $26.2 billion
as of June 30, 2016, and 359 banking offices and 400 ATM locations in Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, Illinois, and Pennsylvania. FirstMerit
provides a complete range of banking and other financial services to consumers and businesses through its core operations. Principal affiliates
include: FirstMerit Bank and FirstMerit Mortgage Corporation.
Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, shareholders of FirstMerit will receive 1.72 shares of Huntington common stock and $5.00 in
cash for each share of FirstMerit common stock. Additionally, each share of 5.875% Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A,
without par value, of FirstMerit will be converted into the right to receive a share of a newly created series of preferred stock of Huntington
having such rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers, and limitations and restrictions, taken as a whole, not materially less favorable
to such holders than such FirstMerit preferred stock. On June 13, 2016, the shareholders of Huntington approved the issuance of shares of
Huntington common stock in connection with the Merger, and the shareholders of FirstMerit approved the Merger Agreement. In connection
with the Merger, Huntington and FirstMerit announced the divestiture of 13 Ohio branches primarily in the Canton and Ashtabula markets to
First Commonwealth Bank. On July 29, 2016, Huntington received regulatory approval for the Merger from the Federal Reserve. The
transaction is expected to be completed in the 2016 third quarter, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including
approval of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency for the merger of FirstMerit Bank with and into the Bank.
This offering of notes is not conditioned on the consummation of the Merger.

risks faced by us described below and elsewhere in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus.
Risks Related to the Notes
The notes are our obligations and not obligations of our subsidiaries and will be structurally subordinated to the claims of our subsidiaries'
creditors.
The notes are exclusively our obligations and not those of our subsidiaries. We are a holding company that conducts substantially all of our
operations through our bank and non-bank subsidiaries. As a result, our ability to make payments on the notes will depend primarily upon the
receipt of dividends and other distributions from our subsidiaries. If we do not receive sufficient cash dividends and other distributions from our
subsidiaries, it is unlikely that we will have sufficient funds to make payments on the notes.
Our subsidiaries are separate and distinct legal entities. Our subsidiaries have no obligation to pay any amounts due on the notes or to provide
us with funds to pay our obligations on the notes, whether by dividends, distributions, loans or other payments. In addition, any dividend payments,
distributions, loans or advances to us by our subsidiaries in the future will require the generation of future earnings by our subsidiaries and may
require regulatory approval. There are statutory and regulatory limitations on the payment of dividends by the Bank to us, as well as by us to our
stockholders. The Bank may not, without prior regulatory approval, pay a dividend in an amount greater than its undivided profits. If the Bank is
unable to make dividend payments to us and sufficient capital is not otherwise available, we may not be able to make principal and interest
payments on our debt, including the notes.
In addition, our right to participate in any distribution of assets of any of our subsidiaries upon the subsidiary's liquidation or otherwise will
generally be subject to the prior claims of creditors of that subsidiary. Your ability as a holder of the notes to benefit indirectly from that
distribution also will be subject to these prior claims. The notes are not guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries. As a result, the notes will be
structurally subordinated to all existing and future liabilities and obligations of our subsidiaries, including deposits, which means that our
subsidiaries' creditors will be paid from our subsidiaries' assets before holders of the notes would have any claims to those assets. Therefore, you
should look only to our assets for payments on the notes. At June 30, 2016, the aggregate amount of all debt and other liabilities of our subsidiaries,
including deposits, was approximately $64.0 billion. Our subsidiaries may incur additional debt and liabilities in the future, all of which would
rank structurally senior to the notes.
The notes will be effectively junior to all of our and our subsidiaries' secured indebtedness.
The notes will be effectively subordinated to any of the existing and future secured debt we or our subsidiaries may incur, to the extent of the
value of the assets securing such debt. In the event that we are declared bankrupt, become insolvent or are liquidated or reorganized, any debt that
ranks ahead of the notes will be entitled to be paid in full from our assets before any payment may be made with respect to the notes. Holders of
the notes will participate ratably with all holders of our unsecured indebtedness that is deemed to be of the same ranking as the notes, and
potentially with all of our other general creditors, based upon the respective amounts owed to each holder or creditor, in our remaining assets. In
any of the foregoing events, we may not

have sufficient assets to pay amounts due on the notes. As a result, if holders of the notes receive any payments, they may receive less, ratably,
than holders of secured indebtedness.
There are limited covenants in the indenture pursuant to which we will issue the notes.
Neither we nor any of our subsidiaries is restricted from incurring additional debt or other liabilities, including additional senior debt, under
the indenture pursuant to which we will issue the notes. If we incur additional debt or liabilities, our ability to pay our obligations on the notes
could be adversely affected. We expect to incur, from time to time, additional debt and other liabilities. In addition, we are not restricted under the
indenture from granting security interests over our assets, except to the extent described under "Description of Notes--Merger, Consolidation or
Sale of Assets" and "Description of Notes--Certain Covenants" in this prospectus supplement, or from paying dividends or issuing or repurchasing
our securities.
In addition, there are no financial covenants in the indenture. You are not protected under the indenture in the event of a highly leveraged
transaction, reorganization, a default under our existing indebtedness, restructuring, merger or similar transaction that may adversely affect you,

Final Prospectus Supplement
except to the extent described under "Description of Notes--Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets" and "Description of Notes--Certain
Covenants" included in this prospectus supplement.
The notes are not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
The notes are not savings accounts, deposits or other obligations of a bank and are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
or any other governmental agency or instrumentality.
You may be unable to sell the notes because there is no public trading market for the notes.
The notes are a new issue of securities with no established trading market. The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange or included
in any automated quotation system. Consequently, the notes will be relatively illiquid and you may be unable to sell your notes. Although the
representatives of the underwriters have advised us that, following completion of the offering of the notes, one or more of the underwriters currently
intend to make a secondary market in the notes, they are not obligated to do so and may discontinue any market-making activities at any time
without notice. Accordingly, a trading market for the notes may not develop or any such market may not have sufficient liquidity.
If a trading market for the notes develops, changes in our credit ratings or the debt markets could adversely affect the liquidity and market
price of the notes.
If a trading market develops, the liquidity and prices of the notes will depend on many factors, including: (i) our credit ratings with major
credit rating agencies; (ii) the prevailing interest rates being paid by other companies similar to us; (iii) our financial condition, financial
performance and future prospects; and (iv) the overall condition of the financial markets.
The condition of the financial markets and prevailing interest rates have fluctuated significantly in the past and may fluctuate in the future.
Such fluctuations could have an adverse effect on the liquidity and price of the notes.
In addition, credit rating agencies periodically review their ratings and ratings methodologies for the companies that they follow, including us
and the Bank. A negative change in ratings or outlook could have an adverse effect on the liquidity and price of the notes.
A credit rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be revised, suspended or withdrawn by the credit rating
agency at any time.

Risks Related to the Merger
Regulatory approvals for the acquisition of FirstMerit may not be received, may take longer than expected, or may impose conditions that are
not presently anticipated or that could have an adverse effect on the combined company following the acquisition.
Before our acquisition of FirstMerit (the "FirstMerit acquisition") may be completed, we and FirstMerit must obtain approval from the
Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. Other approvals, waivers, or consents from regulators may also be required. An adverse development in
either party's regulatory standing or the factors considered by relevant governmental authorities could result in an inability to obtain approval or
delay receipt of required approvals. The relevant governmental entities may impose conditions, limitations, obligations or restrictions on the
conduct of the combined company's business or require branch divestitures or changes to the terms of the FirstMerit acquisition. There can be no
assurance that relevant government entities will not impose conditions, limitations, obligations or restrictions and that such conditions, limitations,
obligations or restrictions will not have the effect of delaying the completion of the FirstMerit acquisition, imposing material additional costs on or
materially limiting the revenues of the combined company following the FirstMerit acquisition or otherwise reduce the anticipated benefits of the
FirstMerit acquisition. Additionally, the completion of the FirstMerit acquisition is conditioned on the absence of certain orders, injunctions or
decrees by any court or regulatory agency of competent jurisdiction that would prohibit or make illegal the completion of the FirstMerit acquisition.
The success of the FirstMerit acquisition and integration of Huntington and FirstMerit will depend on a number of uncertain factors.
The success of the FirstMerit acquisition will depend on a number of factors, including, without limitation:

· our ability to integrate the business acquired from FirstMerit Bank in the FirstMerit acquisition (which we refer to as the "acquired

business") into the Bank's current operations;

· our ability to limit the outflow of deposits held by our new customers in the acquired business and to successfully retain and manage
