        <footnote id="F1">Each Deferred Share was the economic equivalent of one KeyCorp Common Share.  On July 27, 2013, 4,362 of Mr. Dallas's Deferred Shares were settled for cash, and the remaining 4,362 Deferred Shares were settled for an equal number of KeyCorp Common Shares.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">These shares were incorrectly reported as withheld in payment of taxes under Transaction Code &quot;F&quot; in a prior filing on July 30, 2013. The Deferred Shares, which converted into Common Shares in accordance with the exemption under Rule 16b-3, are properly reported herein under Transaction Code &quot;M&quot;.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F3">Includes approximately 269 dividend-equivalent Deferred Shares accrued through July 2013.</footnote>
