Please see page 36 for additional information. Summary Pro Forma Balance Sheet Increases our share of NYC’s multi-family lending market Leverages our mortgage banking platform and Astoria’s residential mortgage lending expertise Extends our longstanding record of credit quality and capital strength (dollars in billions) December 31, 2015 NYCB Pro Forma (a) Change Assets $50.3 $66.1 31.3% Loans, net 38.0 48.9 28.6 Multi-Family Loans 26.0 29.9 15.2 Total Deposits 28.4 37.6 32.1 Wholesale Borrowings 15.4 19.3 25.5 Stockholders’ Equity 5.9 8.0 35.2 Tangible Common Stockholders’ Equity (b) 3.5 4.5 29.3 Reflecting its in-market nature and our extensive expertise in post-merger integration and restructuring, the Astoria merger presents maximal opportunities for revenue enhancement while minimizing risk. Capitalizes on Complementary Business Models Provides immediate scale to leverage compliance-related costs Expedites our ability to comply with LCR requirements Validates our extensive preparations for SIFI status Facilitates our Transition to SIFI Status Provides Ample Opportunities for Continued Earnings and Capital Growth Post-merger sale of $1+ billion of acquired assets to reduce credit risk, enhance liquidity, and fund investments in HQLAs Acquired real estate has embedded value

The Astoria merger is expected to enhance our asset and funding mix. NYCB Astoria Pro Forma (a) Total HFI Loans: $37.8 bn Yield on Loans: 3.97% NYCB Astoria Pro Forma (a) Total Deposits: $28.4 bn Cost of I-B Deposits: 0.62% Total HFI Loans: $11.1 bn Yield on Loans: 3.51% Total HFI Loans: $48.6 bn Yield on Loans: 3.86% Total Deposits: $9.1 bn Cost of I-B Deposits: 0.41% Total Deposits: $37.6 bn Cost of I-B Deposits: 0.58% Pro forma deposit and loan data is based on our balances and Astoria’s at 12/31/15 and includes purchase accounting adjustments.

We expect the Astoria merger to provide multiple opportunities to drive profitable, sustainable, long-term asset growth. The Pro Forma Company is Primed for Strong Core Asset Growth Results in greater on-balance sheet capacity to support loan production Highly liquid residential mortgage loan portfolio provides the flexibility to manage our asset mix Stronger capital formation and multiple sources of funding and liquidity are available to support growth Growth Levers More loans to be retained in portfolio once SIFI threshold is exceeded ($3.2 billion of loans sold from 3Q 2014 through 1Q 2016 to manage our assets under $50 billion) Expected sale of acquired (higher-risk) assets to support loan growth going forward Facilitates the continuation of our growth-through-acquisition strategy Results Earnings growth Higher operating leverage Improved risk profile Enhanced returns for investors

De-risking our balance sheet is expected to strengthen our financial performance both before and after the merger. Balance Sheet Repositioning Strategies In 4Q 2015, we prepaid $10.4 billion of primarily puttable wholesale borrowings with an average cost of 3.16% and replaced them with a like amount of wholesale borrowings with fixed maturities and an average cost of 1.58%. While the prepayment of wholesale borrowings resulted in a one-time after-tax debt repositioning charge of $546.8 million in 4Q 2015, it is expected to reduce our annual interest expense by ~ $100 million after-tax beginning in 2016. Upon completion of the merger, the terms on $1.5 billion of short-term borrowings will be extended, reducing our interest rate sensitivity. We also expect to sell $1+ billion of Astoria’s non-performing and higher-risk assets at the close. Benefits of De-Risking: Eliminates puttable risk Improves NPV and NII interest rate sensitivity ratios Reduces exposure to rising interest rates Enhances both liquidity and asset quality Financial Benefits Expected in FY 16 from 4Q 15 Repositioning: EPS accretion: ~ 10% Net Interest Margin: ~ 35 bps Net Interest Income: ~ $165 million Net Income: ~ $100 million

Enhancing our capital management strategy has strengthened our capital measures and is expected to facilitate further growth. Completed on 11/4/15, our common stock offering: Immediately supported our tangible stockholders’ equity and Tier 1 common equity; and Exceeded by $87.3 million the impact on capital of the one-time after-tax balance sheet repositioning charge incurred in 4Q 2015. Adjusting our quarterly cash dividend to $0.17 per share positioned us for sustainable long-term capital growth while still providing our investors with an attractive yield. Dividend declared on 4/20/16 provided a yield of 4.3%. Capital retention served to minimize the dilution from our 4Q 2015 capital raise. Building capital will facilitate the execution of our growth-through-acquisition strategy going forward, and provide the flexibility to maximize future value-enhancing capital deployment strategies. Enhancements to Our Capital Management Strategy Increased Capital Generation 12-month bps of Capital Generation

Following enactment of the Dodd-Frank Act, we began allocating significant resources towards SIFI preparedness. The degree to which we have already leveraged the cost of SIFI compliance is reflected in the ~ 700-basis point increase in our efficiency ratio since the enactment of Dodd-Frank. The merger will provide the additional scale to leverage the remaining SIFI compliance costs. We expect the merger to bring us well beyond the current SIFI threshold. Preparing for SIFI Status NYCB Efficiency Ratio Prior to and Since Dodd-Frank SIFI Compliance Key infrastructure investments to date include: Enhanced ERM and corporate governance frameworks Bottom-up capital planning and stress testing capabilities Substantial expansion of regulatory compliance staff Remaining costs of SIFI compliance include LCR, CCAR reporting, and Living Will

As we continue to grow, we would expect our total payout ratio to be more consistent with the total payout ratio for our SIFI peers. Dividends Approved in 2015 Share Repurchases Approved in 2015
