        <footnote id="F2">The settlement date for the Deferred Shares was Saturday, July 17, 2013.  Under the terms of the KeyCorp Directors' Deferred Share Plan, when the settlement date falls on a weekend or holiday, the value of the Deferred Shares settled for cash will equal the closing price of KeyCorp's Common Shares on the immediately preceding business day on which the New York Stock Exchange was open (July 16, 2013).</footnote>
