    </p>
    <p>
      WESTBURY, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 17, 2016--New York Community
      Bancorp, Inc. (NYSE:NYCB) (the &#8220;Company&#8221;) today announced that it has
      moved the date of its 2016 Annual Meeting of Shareholders from Thursday,
      June 2nd to Tuesday, June 7th.
    </p>
    <p>
      In connection with the five-day postponement, the date of record for
      voting at the Annual Meeting has been moved from April 7th to April
      12th. In addition, the proxy materials for the Annual Meeting will be
      mailed on or about April 28th, rather than on or about April 22nd, as
      originally announced.
    </p>
    <p>
      The Annual Meeting still will be held at the Sheraton LaGuardia East
      Hotel in Flushing, New York, beginning at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Daylight
      Time.
    </p>
    <p>
      The purpose of the postponement is to avoid having the proxy materials
      for the Company&#8217;s Annual Meeting of Shareholders outstanding at the same
      time as the proxy materials for the Company&#8217;s Special Meeting of
      Shareholders on April 26th, which is being held in relation to the
      pending merger with Astoria Financial Corporation.
