<div style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; TEXT-ALIGN: left">"As part of a larger Strategic Plan, this necessary and difficult effort will create a financial services and technology company that is stronger, nimbler, and better equipped within the marketplace," said Damian Kozlowski, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We believe we can substantially lower our operating run rate by 20% to 25% without significantly affecting revenue and, ultimately, have a healthy operating leverage with double-digit business revenue and single-digit expense growth. We also believe we can take these actions without negatively impacting our remediation efforts or operating model controls. We express our sincere gratitude for the contributions of the employees affected by job eliminations and are committed to supporting them with important transitional information and resources."</div>
