FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS



FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This document contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Statements regarding potential future share repurchases and future dividends are forward-looking statements. Also, any statement that does not describe historical or current facts is a forward-looking statement. These statements often include the words “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “plans,” “goals,” “targets,” “initiatives,” “potentially,” “probably,” “projects,” “outlook” or similar expressions or future conditional verbs such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” and “could.”

Forward-looking statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of management, and on information currently available to management. Our statements speak as of the date hereof, and we do not assume any obligation to update these statements or to update the reasons why actual results could differ from those contained in such statements in light of new information or future events. We caution you, therefore, against relying on any of these forward-looking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees or assurances of future performance. While there is no assurance that any list of risks and uncertainties or risk factors is complete, important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include the following, without limitation:
Negative economic and political conditions that adversely affect the general economy, housing prices, the job market, consumer confidence and spending habits which may affect, among other things, the level of nonperforming assets, charge-offs and provision expense;
The rate of growth in the economy and employment levels, as well as general business and economic conditions, and changes in the competitive environment;
Our ability to implement our business strategy, including the cost savings and efficiency components, and achieve our financial performance goals;
Our ability to meet heightened supervisory requirements and expectations;
Liabilities and business restrictions resulting from litigation and regulatory investigations;
Our capital and liquidity requirements (including under regulatory capital standards, such as the U.S. Basel III capital rules) and our ability to generate capital internally or raise capital on favorable terms;
The effect of changes in interest rates on our net interest income, net interest margin and our mortgage originations, mortgage servicing rights and mortgages held for sale;
Changes in interest rates and market liquidity, as well as the magnitude of such changes, which may reduce interest margins, impact funding sources and affect the ability to originate and distribute financial products in the primary and secondary markets;
The effect of changes in the level of checking or savings account deposits on our funding costs and net interest margin;
Financial services reform and other current, pending or future legislation or regulation that could have a negative effect on our revenue and businesses, including the Dodd-Frank Act and other legislation and regulation relating to bank products and services;
A failure in or breach of our operational or security systems or infrastructure, or those of our third party vendors or other service providers, including as a result of cyber-attacks; and
Management’s ability to identify and manage these and other risks.
In addition to the above factors, we also caution that the actual amounts and timing of any future common stock dividends or share repurchases will be subject to various factors, including our capital position, financial performance, capital impacts of strategic initiatives, market conditions and regulatory and accounting considerations, as well as any other factors that our Board of Directors deems relevant in making such a determination. Therefore, there can be no assurance that we will repurchase shares or pay any dividends to holders of our common stock, or as to the amount of any such repurchases or dividends.

More information about factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements can be found in the “Risk Factors” section in Part I, Item 1A. of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

The following MD&A is intended to assist readers in their analysis of the accompanying unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements and supplemental financial information. It should be read in conjunction with the unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to the unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q, as well as other information contained in this document and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.
Key Performance Metrics Used by Management and Non-GAAP Financial Measures
As a banking institution, we manage and evaluate various aspects of our results of operations and our financial condition. We evaluate the levels and trends of the line items included in our balance sheet and statement of operations, as well as various financial ratios that are commonly used in our industry. We analyze these ratios and financial trends against our own historical performance, our budgeted performance and the financial condition and performance of comparable banking institutions in our region and nationally.
The primary line items we use in our key performance metrics to manage and evaluate our statement of operations include net interest income, noninterest income, total revenue, provision for credit losses, noninterest expense, net income and net income available to common stockholders. The primary line items we use in our key performance metrics to manage and evaluate our balance sheet data include loans and leases, securities, allowance for credit losses, deposits, borrowed funds and derivatives.
We consider various measures when evaluating our performance and making day-to-day operating decisions, as well as evaluating capital utilization and adequacy, including:
Return on average common equity, which we define as annualized net income available to common stockholders divided by average common equity;
Return on average tangible common equity, which we define as annualized net income available to common stockholders divided by average common equity excluding average goodwill (net of related deferred tax liability) and average other intangibles;
Return on average total assets, which we define as annualized net income divided by average total assets;
Return on average total tangible assets, which we define as annualized net income divided by average total assets excluding average goodwill (net of related deferred tax liability) and average other intangibles;
Efficiency ratio, which we define as the ratio of our total noninterest expense to the sum of net interest income and total noninterest income. We measure our efficiency ratio to evaluate the efficiency of our operations as it helps us monitor how costs are changing compared to our income. A decrease in our efficiency ratio represents improvement;
Operating leverage, which we define as the percent change in total revenue, less the percent change in noninterest expense;
Net interest margin, which we calculate by dividing annualized net interest income for the period by average total interest-earning assets, is a key measure that we use to evaluate our net interest income; and
Common equity tier 1 capital ratio, which represents CET1 capital divided by total risk-weighted assets as defined under the U.S. Basel III Standardized approach.

CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

This document contains non-GAAP financial measures denoted as “Underlying” results. Underlying results for any given reporting period exclude certain items that may occur in that period which Management does not consider indicative of the Company’s on-going financial performance. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors because they are used by our Management to evaluate our operating performance and make day-to-day operating decisions. In addition, we believe our Underlying results in any given reporting period reflect our on-going financial performance and increase comparability of period-to-period results, and accordingly, are useful to consider in addition to our GAAP financial results.
Other companies may use similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures that are calculated differently from the way we calculate such measures. Accordingly, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by such companies. We caution investors not to place undue reliance on such non-GAAP financial measures, but to consider them with the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our results reported under GAAP.
Non-GAAP measures are denoted throughout the MD&A by the use of the term Underlying and/or are followed by an asterisk (*). For additional information regarding our non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations, see “—Key Performance Metrics, Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliations” included in this Report.

Net income available to common stockholders of $435 million increased $10 million, or 2%, compared to $425 million in second quarter 2018, driven by 8% revenue growth, with 4% growth in net interest income and 19% growth in noninterest income.
On an Underlying basis,* net income available to common stockholders of $440 million increased $15 million, or 4%, from second quarter 2018.
Total revenue of $1.6 billion increased $119 million, or 8%, from second quarter 2018, reflecting strength in noninterest income and increased net interest income.
Net interest income of $1.2 billion increased $45 million, or 4%, compared to $1.1 billion in second quarter 2018, driven by growth in interest earning assets and stable net interest margin.
Net interest margin of 3.20% remained stable compared to second quarter 2018, reflecting higher interest-earning asset yields given higher short-term interest rates and continued mix shift towards higher-yielding assets, offset by an increase in funding costs tied to higher rates and growth.
Net interest margin on a fully taxable-equivalent basis of 3.21% decreased by one basis point, compared to 3.22% in second quarter 2018.

CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Average loans and leases of $117.8 billion increased $4.9 billion, or 4%, from $112.9 billion in second quarter 2018, reflecting a $3.3 billion increase in commercial loans and leases and a $1.6 billion increase in retail loans.
Average deposits of $123.2 billion increased $8.0 billion, or 7%, from $115.1 billion in second quarter 2018, reflecting growth in term deposits, savings and checking with interest, partially offset by a reduction in money market accounts and demand deposits.
Noninterest income of $462 million increased $74 million, or 19%, from second quarter 2018, driven by growth in mortgage banking fees, capital market fees, trust and investment services fees and card fees.
Noninterest expense of $951 million increased $76 million, or 9%, compared to $875 million in second quarter 2018, reflecting the impact of our investments in growth initiatives, partially offset by lower other operating expense, largely tied to a reduction in FDIC insurance and advertising expense.
On an Underlying basis,* noninterest expense increased $69 million, or 8%, from second quarter 2018.
The efficiency ratio increased to 58.4% from 58.0% in second quarter 2018, and operating leverage declined 1% from second quarter 2018, both primarily driven by the impact of notable items and Acquisitions.
On an Underlying basis,* the efficiency ratio of 58.0% remained stable with second quarter 2018, despite a 38 basis point drag related to Acquisitions.
On an Underlying basis,* operating leverage was stable despite a 68 basis point drag related to Acquisitions.
Provision for credit losses of $97 million increased $12 million, or 14%, from $85 million in second quarter 2018, reflecting 4% average loan growth, continued seasoning in retail growth portfolios and several idiosyncratic losses in commercial, with key metrics continuing to reflect strong credit quality.
ROTCE of 12.8% decreased slightly from 12.9% in second quarter 2018 as an approximately 50 basis point drag from higher equity value, given the benefit on securities valuations from lower long-term rates, offset the benefit of profitability growth.
On an Underlying basis,* ROTCE of 12.9% was stable with second quarter 2018.
Tangible book value per common share of $30.88 increased 12% from second quarter 2018. Fully diluted average common shares outstanding decreased 6%, or 26.8 million shares, over the same period.
First Half 2019 compared with First Half 2018 - Key Highlights
Net income of $892 million increased 10% from $813 million in the first half of 2018, with earnings per diluted common share of $1.86, up 13% from $1.65 per diluted common share over the first half of 2018. ROTCE of 12.9% improved from 12.3% in the first half of 2018.
There were $9 million after-tax, or $0.02 per diluted common share, of notable items in the first half of 2019 tied to integration costs related to Acquisitions. There were no notable items in the first half of 2018.

CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
Net Interest Income
Net interest income is our largest source of revenue and is the difference between the interest earned on interest-earning assets (generally loans, leases and investment securities) and the interest expense incurred in connection with interest-bearing liabilities (generally deposits and borrowed funds). The level of net interest income is primarily a function of the difference between the effective yield on our average interest-earning assets and the effective cost of our interest-bearing liabilities. These factors are influenced by the pricing and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities which, in turn, are impacted by external factors such as local economic conditions, competition for loans and deposits, the monetary policy of the FRB and market interest rates. For further discussion, refer to “—Market Risk — Non-Trading Risk,” included in this Report and “—Risk Governance” as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

(1) Balances are net of certain short-term receivables associated with reverse repurchase agreements, as applicable. Interest expense includes the full cost of the repurchase agreements and certain hedging costs.
(2) Beginning in the first quarter of 2019, borrowed funds balances and the associated interest expense are classified based on original maturity. Prior periods have been adjusted to conform with the current period presentation.
(3) In the first quarter of 2019, we changed the method of calculating our net interest margin to equal net interest income, annualized based on the number of
days in the period, divided by average total interest-earning assets. Prior periods have been adjusted to conform with the current period presentation.
(4) Net interest income and net interest margin is presented on a fully taxable-equivalent (“FTE”) basis using the federal statutory tax rate of 21%. In the fully taxable-equivalent presentation of net interest income and net interest margin, interest income on tax-exempt assets is increased to make it fully equivalent to interest income earned on taxable assets. The FTE impact is predominantly attributable to commercial loans for the periods presented.

CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Quarter-To-Date Results: Net interest income of $1.2 billion increased $45 million, or 4%, from second quarter 2018, given 4% growth in interest-earning assets and stable net interest margin.
Net interest margin of 3.20% was stable with second quarter 2018, reflecting higher interest-earning asset yields given higher short-term interest rates and continued mix shift toward more attractive risk-adjusted return portfolios. These results were offset by higher funding costs and the impact of lower long-term rates on securities premium amortization. Net interest margin on an FTE basis of 3.21% was also stable compared to 3.22% in second quarter 2018. Average interest-earning asset yields of 4.30% increased 30 basis points from 4.00% in second quarter 2018, and average interest-bearing liability costs of 1.54% increased 40 basis points from 1.14% in second quarter 2018.
Average interest-earning assets of $146.3 billion in second quarter 2019 increased $5.8 billion, or 4%, from second quarter 2018, driven by a $4.9 billion, or 4% increase in loans and leases. Commercial loans and leases increased $3.3 billion, or 6%, while retail loans increased $1.6 billion, or 3%. Results also reflected a $1.0 billion increase in loans held for sale, primarily driven by the impact of the FAMC acquisition. Commercial loan results reflected strength in commercial and industrial loans, driven by geographic, product and client-focused expansion strategies as well as strength in commercial real estate, partially offset by planned reductions in commercial leases. Retail loan growth was driven by mortgage, unsecured and education finance, partially offset by a planned reduction in auto and lower home equity.
Second quarter 2019 average deposits of $123.2 billion increased $8.0 billion, or 7%, from second quarter 2018, reflecting growth in term, savings and checking with interest. These results were partially offset by a decline in money market accounts and demand deposits.
Average borrowed funds of $13.2 billion decreased $2.3 billion, or 15%, from second quarter 2018, driven by a $2.5 billion decrease in long-term borrowings reflecting improved funding mix from deposit growth, partially offset by an increase in federal funds purchased and repurchase agreements. Total borrowed funds costs of $106 million decreased $3 million from second quarter 2018. The total borrowed funds cost of 3.20% increased 42 basis points from 2.78% in second quarter 2018 due to an increase in short-term rates and a mix shift to long-term senior debt.

CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Year-To-Date Results: Net interest income of $2.3 billion increased $114 million, reflecting 5% average interest-earning asset growth and a two basis point increase in net interest margin.
Net interest margin of 3.22% increased two basis points compared to 3.20% in the first half of 2018, driven by higher interest-earning asset yields given higher short-term interest rates and continued mix shift toward more attractive risk-adjusted return portfolios. These results were partially offset by higher funding costs and the impact of lower long-term rates on securities premium amortization. Net interest margin on an FTE basis of 3.23% also increased two basis points compared to 3.21% in the first half of 2018. Average interest-earning asset yields of 4.32% increased 39 basis points from 3.93% in the first half of 2018, while average interest-bearing liability costs of 1.54% increased 49 basis points from 1.05% in the first half of 2018.
Average interest-earning assets of $145.9 billion increased $6.3 billion, or 5%, from the first half of 2018, driven by a $4.2 billion increase in average commercial loans and leases and a $1.5 billion increase in average retail loans, partially offset by a $197 million decrease in average investments and interest-bearing cash and due from banks and deposits in banks. Commercial loan growth was driven by commercial and commercial real estate. Retail loan growth was driven by residential mortgage, education, credit cards and other retail.
Average deposits of $121.8 billion increased $7.5 billion from the first half of 2018, reflecting growth in term deposits, checking with interest, and savings. Total interest-bearing deposit costs of $595 million increased $269 million, or 83%, from $326 million in the first half of 2018, primarily due to rising rates.
Average total borrowed funds of $14.3 billion decreased $1.3 billion from the first half of 2018, reflecting a decrease in other short-term borrowed funds and a decrease in long-term borrowed funds, partially offset by an increase in federal funds purchased and repurchase agreements. Total borrowed funds costs of $229 million increased $28 million from the first half of 2018. The total borrowed funds cost of 3.19% increased 62 basis points from 2.57% in the first half of 2018 due to an increase in short-term rates and a mix shift to long-term senior debt.

(1) Includes net impairment losses recognized in earnings on available for sale debt securities, bank-owned life insurance income and other income.

Quarter-To-Date Results: Noninterest income increased $74 million from second quarter 2018, driven by increased mortgage banking fees, trust and investment fees, capital market fees, and card fees, including the impact of Acquisitions.
Year-To-Date Results: Noninterest income increased $131 million from the first half of 2018, driven by higher mortgage banking fees and higher trust and investment services fees driven by acquisitions. Strength in capital markets fees and foreign exchange and interest rate products revenues, reflected the benefit of investments to broaden and enhance our capabilities. Other income reflected higher leasing income and asset dispositions tied to balance sheet optimization and efficiency initiatives.

CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS


Quarter-To-Date Results: Noninterest expense increased $76 million from second quarter 2018, driven by an increase in salaries and employee benefits, which included the impact of annual merit increases, revenue based incentives and a severance charge, as well as an increase in equipment and software expense. These results reflected the impact of investments in growth initiatives, partially offset by lower other operating expense, largely tied to a reduction in FDIC insurance and advertising expense. Underlying noninterest expense* increased $69 million, or 8%.
Year-To-Date Results: Noninterest expense increased $130 million, or 7%, from the first half of 2018 reflecting an increase in salaries and employee benefits given the impact of annual merit increases, revenue-based incentives and investments in growth initiatives. First half 2019 results included an increase in equipment and software expense, which also reflected investments in growth initiatives. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in other operating expense tied to a reduction in FDIC insurance premiums. Underlying noninterest expense* increased $118 million, or 7%.
Provision for Credit Losses            
CHART-02.JPG
The provision for loan and lease losses is the result of a detailed analysis performed to estimate an appropriate and adequate ACL. The total provision for credit losses includes the provision for loan and lease losses as well as the provision for unfunded commitments. Refer to “—Analysis of Financial Condition — Allowance for Credit Losses and Nonperforming Assets” for more information.
Quarter-To-Date Results: The provision for credit losses increased $12 million from second quarter 2018, due to 4% average loan growth, continued expected seasoning in retail growth portfolios and several idiosyncratic losses in commercial, with key credit metrics continuing to reflect strong credit quality and a $9 million ACL release in second quarter 2019 compared to a $9 million ACL build in second quarter 2018. Second quarter net charge-offs of $106 million were $30 million higher than second quarter 2018, reflecting a small number of idiosyncratic losses in commercial and expected seasoning in retail growth portfolios.
Year-To-Date Results: The provision for credit losses increased $19 million from the first half of 2018, largely related to 5% average loan growth, several idiosyncratic commercial losses and expected seasoning in retail growth portfolios, partially offset by continued improvement in underlying credit quality. In the first half of 2019, results reflected a $13 million ACL release, compared to a $17 million ACL build in the first half of 2018. Net charge-offs for the first half of 2019 of $195 million were $49 million higher than the first half of 2018.

Income Tax Expense
CHART-DA.JPG
Quarter-To-Date Results: Income tax expense increased $3 million from second quarter 2018. The effective income tax rate in second quarter 2019 decreased 72 basis points to 21.9% from second quarter 2018, driven by second quarter 2019 net discrete income tax benefits of $5 million.
Year-To-Date Results: Income tax expense increased $17 million from the first half of 2018. The effective income tax rate in the first half of 2019 decreased to 22.1% from 22.6% in the first half of 2018, driven by a reduction in non-deductible FDIC premiums.

For a description of non-core assets, see “—Analysis of Financial Condition — Allowance for Credit Losses and Nonperforming Assets — Non-Core Assets.”


We have two business operating segments: Consumer Banking and Commercial Banking. Segment results are derived by specifically attributing managed assets, liabilities, capital and related revenues, provision for credit losses and expenses. Non-segment operations are classified as Other, which includes corporate functions, the Treasury function, the securities portfolio, wholesale funding activities, intangible assets not directly allocated to a business operating segment, community development, non-core assets (including legacy Royal Bank of Scotland Group plc aircraft loan and leasing), and other unallocated assets, liabilities, capital, revenues, provision for credit losses, expenses and income tax expense. In addition, Other includes goodwill not directly allocated to a business operating segment and any associated goodwill impairment charges. For impairment testing purposes, we allocate all goodwill to our Consumer Banking and/or Commercial Banking reporting units. There have been no significant changes in our methodologies used to allocate items to our business operating segments as described in “—Results of Operations — Business Operating Segments” to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Quarter-To-Date Results: Consumer Banking net interest income increased $40 million, or 5%, from second quarter 2018, driven by the benefit of a $2.8 billion increase in average loans led by residential mortgage, unsecured personal and education loans. Noninterest income increased $49 million from second quarter 2018, driven by higher mortgage banking fees and higher trust and investment fees including the impact of Acquisitions. Noninterest expense increased $57 million, or 9%, from second quarter 2018, reflecting higher salaries and benefits and outside services including the impact of Acquisitions. Provision for credit losses of $78 million increased $12 million, or 18%, reflecting higher net charge-offs due to seasoning in growth portfolios.
Year-To-Date Results: Consumer Banking net interest income increased $95 million, or 6%, from the first half of 2018, driven by the benefit of a $2.5 billion increase in average loans led by residential mortgage, unsecured personal and education loans. Noninterest income increased $74 million from the first half of 2018, driven by higher mortgage banking fees and higher trust and investment fees including the impact of Acquisitions. Noninterest expense increased $101 million, or 8%, from the first half of 2018, reflecting higher salaries and benefits and outside services including the impact of Acquisitions. Provision for credit losses of $145 million increased $7 million, or 5%, reflecting higher net charge-offs due to seasoning in growth portfolios.

Quarter-To-Date Results: Commercial Banking net interest income of $371 million decreased $5 million, or 1%, from $376 million in second quarter 2018, driven by higher deposit costs and mix. Noninterest income of $149 million increased $9 million, or 6%, from $140 million in second quarter 2018, reflecting higher capital market fees, foreign exchange and interest rate product fees and letter of credit and loan fees. Noninterest expense of $217 million increased $17 million, or 9%, from $200 million in second quarter 2018, largely driven by the impact of increased headcount due to strategic initiatives and higher indirect expenses. Provision for credit losses increased $16 million from second quarter 2018 due to higher net charge-offs.     
Year-To-Date Results: Commercial Banking net interest income of $743 million increased $10 million, or 1%, from $733 million in the first half of 2018, reflecting a $4.3 billion increase in average loans and leases, partially offset by higher deposit costs and mix. Noninterest income of $299 million increased $34 million, or 13%, from $265 million in the first half of 2018, reflecting higher capital market, interest rate product, and capital markets fees. Noninterest expense of $426 million increased $18 million, from $408 million in the first half of 2018, driven by higher salaries and employee benefit expense. Provision for credit losses of $46 million increased $41 million from the first half of 2018, driven by higher net charge-offs.

Quarter-To-Date Results: Other net interest income increased $10 million from second quarter 2018 driven by FTP, partially offset by higher funding and swap costs and non core run-off. Noninterest income was up $16 million primarily due to higher leasing income. Results also reflected an ACL release of $9 million in second quarter 2019, compared to an ACL build of $9 million in second quarter 2018.
Year-To-Date Results: Other net interest income increased $9 million from the first half of 2018 driven by FTP, partially offset by higher funding and swap costs and non-core run-off.

The fair value of the AFS debt portfolio of $21.7 billion at June 30, 2019 increased $1.8 billion from $19.9 billion at December 31, 2018 due to lower period-end interest rates that decreased net unrealized losses on mortgage-backed securities by $625 million, net portfolio additions, and securities transferred from HTM to AFS upon the adoption of ASU 2017–12, Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. The decline in the fair value of the HTM debt portfolio of $600 million was primarily attributable to securities transferred from HTM to AFS upon the adoption of ASU 2017–12, partially offset by a transfer of $192 million of securities from AFS to HTM. For further detail see Note 1 "Basis of Presentation" to our unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 — Financial Statements, included in this Report.

As of June 30, 2019, the portfolio’s average effective duration was 3.3 years compared with 4.4 years as of December 31, 2018, as lower long-term rates drove an increase in both actual and projected securities prepayment speeds. We manage our securities portfolio duration and convexity risk through asset selection and securities structure, and maintain duration levels within risk appetite in the context of the broader interest rate risk in the banking book framework and limits.

The securities portfolio includes high-quality, highly-liquid investments reflecting our ongoing commitment to maintaining appropriate contingent liquidity levels and pledging capacity. U.S. government-guaranteed notes and GSE-issued mortgage-backed securities represent 96% of the fair value of the debt securities portfolio holdings. Holdings backed by mortgages dominate our portfolio and facilitate our ability to pledge them to the FHLB for collateral purposes. For further discussion of the liquidity coverage ratios, see “Regulation and Supervision — Liquidity Standards” in Part I — Business, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

(1) SBA loans we service for others of $18 million are not included above. These loans represent the government guaranteed portion of SBA loans sold to outside investors as of June 30, 2019. There were no SBA loans we serviced for others at December 31, 2018.
(2) Mortgage loans we service for others of $72.5 billion and $69.6 billion at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, are not included above.
(3) LHFS totaling $2.2 billion and $1.3 billion at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, are not included above.
Strength in commercial loans, driven by geographic, product and client-focused expansion strategies as well as strength in commercial real estate drove an increase in total loans and leases of $178 million from $116.7 billion as of December 31, 2018, partially offset by planned reductions in commercial leases. Retail loans were relatively stable, as growth in education, residential mortgage, other retail and credit card were offset by execution against planned reductions in auto and run-off in the home equity portfolio.
Allowance for Credit Losses and Nonperforming Assets
The ACL, which consists of an ALLL and a reserve for unfunded lending commitments, is created through charges to the provision for credit losses in order to provide appropriate reserves to absorb future estimated credit losses in accordance with GAAP. For further information on our processes to determine our ACL, see “—Critical Accounting Estimates — Allowance for Credit Losses” and Note 5 “Allowance for Credit Losses, Nonperforming Assets, and Concentrations of Credit Risk” to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 and Note 4 "Allowance for Credit Losses, Nonperforming Assets, and Concentrations of Credit Risk" to our unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 — Financial Statements, included in this Report.
The ACL totaled $1.3 billion at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The ALLL represented 1.05% of loans and leases and 159% of nonperforming loans and leases as of June 30, 2019, compared with 1.06% and 156%, as of December 31, 2018, respectively. As of June 30, 2019, there were no material changes in assumptions or estimation techniques compared with prior periods that impacted the determination of the current period’s reserves.
Overall credit quality has remained strong in the first half of 2019. Nonperforming loans and leases of $770 million as of June 30, 2019 decreased $27 million from December 31, 2018, reflecting a $45 million decrease in retail nonperforming loans driven by a decrease in real estate secured portfolios. Second quarter 2019 net charge-offs of $106 million increased $30 million, or 39%, from $76 million in second quarter 2018. Second quarter 2019 annualized net charge-offs of 36 basis points of average loans and leases was up nine basis points from second quarter 2018. First half of 2019 net charge-offs of $195 million increased $49 million, or 34%, from $146 million in the first half of 2018. First half of 2019 annualized net charge-offs of 33 basis points of average loans and leases was up seven basis points from the first half of 2018.
Commercial Loan Asset Quality
Our commercial loan and lease portfolio consists of traditional commercial loans, commercial leases and commercial real estate loans. The portfolio is predominantly focused on customers in our footprint and adjacent

states in which we have a physical presence where our local delivery model provides for strong client connectivity. Additionally, we also do business in certain specialized industry sectors on a national basis.
For commercial loans and leases, we utilize regulatory classification ratings to monitor credit quality. For more information on regulatory classification ratings, see “—Allowance for Credit Losses and Nonperforming Assets — Commercial Loan Asset Quality” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. See Note 4 "Allowance for Credit Losses, Nonperforming Assets, and Concentrations of Credit Risk" to our unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 — Financial Statements, included in this Report.
As of June 30, 2019, nonperforming commercial loans and leases of $219 million increased $18 million from $201 million as of December 31, 2018. Total commercial nonperforming loans were 0.4% of the commercial loan portfolio as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. Total commercial loan and lease net charge-offs of $33 million and $57 million for second quarter and the first half of 2019, respectively, compared to net charge-offs of $12 million and $9 million for second quarter and the first half of 2018, respectively. The commercial loan and lease portfolio’s annualized net charge-off rate of 23 and 20 basis points for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, compared to a net charge-off rate of nine and three basis points for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.

Total commercial criticized loans and leases of $2.7 billion at June 30, 2019 were compared to $2.8 billion at December 31, 2018. Commercial real estate criticized balances of $418 million, or 3.2% of the commercial real estate portfolio, decreased from $500 million, or 3.8%, as of December 31, 2018. Commercial real estate accounted for 15.7% of total criticized loans as of June 30, 2019, compared to 17.6% as of December 31, 2018.
Retail Loan Asset Quality
For retail loans, we primarily utilize payment and delinquency status to regularly review and monitor credit quality trends. Historical experience indicates that the longer a loan is past due, the greater the likelihood of future credit loss. The largest portion of the retail portfolio is represented by borrowers located in the New England, Mid-Atlantic and Midwest regions, although we have continued to lend selectively in areas outside the footprint primarily in the auto finance, education lending and unsecured portfolios.

Retail net charge-off rate increased to 0.49% for second quarter 2019, an increase of five basis points from second quarter 2018, driven by continued seasoning in the unsecured portfolios. Retail asset quality was stable with a net charge-off rate of 0.47% for the first half of 2019 and 2018.
Troubled Debt Restructurings
TDR is the classification given to a loan that has been restructured in a manner that grants a concession to a borrower experiencing financial hardship that we would not otherwise make. TDRs typically result from our loss mitigation efforts and are undertaken in order to improve the likelihood of recovery and continuity of the relationship. Our loan modifications are handled on a case by case basis and are negotiated to achieve mutually agreeable terms that maximize loan collectability and meet our borrower’s financial needs. The types of concessions include interest rate reductions, term extensions, principal forgiveness and other modifications to the structure of the loan that fall outside our lending policy. Depending on the specific facts and circumstances of the customer, restructuring can involve loans moving to nonaccrual, remaining on nonaccrual, or remaining on accrual status.
As of June 30, 2019, $686 million of retail loans were classified as TDRs, compared with $723 million as of December 31, 2018. As of June 30, 2019, $169 million of retail TDRs were in nonaccrual status with 49% current with payments, an improvement compared to $181 million in nonaccrual status with 49% current on payments at December 31, 2018. TDRs generally return to accrual status once repayment capacity and appropriate payment history can be established. TDRs are individually evaluated for impairment and loans, once classified as TDRs, remain classified as TDRs until paid off, sold or refinanced at market terms.
For additional information regarding TDRs, see “—Critical Accounting Estimates — Allowance for Credit Losses,” and Note 5 “Allowance for Credit Losses, Nonperforming Assets, and Concentrations of Credit Risk” to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 and Note 4 "Allowance for Credit Losses, Nonperforming Assets, and Concentrations of Credit Risk" to our unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 — Financial Statements, included in this Report.

(1) Beginning in the first quarter of 2019, borrowed funds balances and the associated interest expense are classified based on original maturity. Prior periods have been adjusted to conform with the current period presentation.
The net increase in other short-term borrowed funds of $148 million resulted from an increase in short-term FHLB advances.
Our advances, lines of credit, and letters of credit from the FHLB are collateralized by pledged mortgages and securities at least sufficient to satisfy the collateral maintenance level established by the FHLB. The utilized borrowing capacity for FHLB advances and letters of credit was $7.4 billion and $13.0 billion at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Our remaining available FHLB borrowing capacity was $9.0 billion and $4.8 billion at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. We can also borrow from the FRB discount window to meet short-term liquidity requirements. Collateral, including certain loans, is pledged to support this borrowing capacity. At June 30, 2019, our unused secured borrowing capacity was approximately $42.8 billion, which included unencumbered securities, FHLB borrowing capacity, and FRB discount window capacity.

The Parent Company’s long-term borrowed funds as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 included principal balances of $2.0 billion for each period, respectively, and unamortized deferred issuance costs and/or discounts of ($4) million and ($5) million, respectively. The banking and other subsidiaries’ long-term borrowed funds as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 included principal balances of $9.5 billion and $14.0 billion, respectively, with unamortized deferred issuance costs and/or discounts of ($17) million and ($14) million, respectively, and hedging basis adjustments of $43 million and ($66) million, respectively. See Note 9 "Derivatives" to our unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 — Financial Statements, included in this Report for further information about our hedging of certain long-term borrowed funds.
CAPITAL AND REGULATORY MATTERS
As a bank holding company and a financial holding company, we are subject to regulation and supervision by the FRB. Our banking subsidiary, CBNA, is a national banking association whose primary federal regulator is the OCC. Our regulation and supervision continues to evolve as the legal and regulatory frameworks governing our operations continue to change. The current operating environment reflects heightened regulatory expectations around many regulations including consumer compliance, the Bank Secrecy Act, anti-money laundering compliance,

34

CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

and increased internal audit activities. For more information, see “Regulation and Supervision” in Part I, Item 1 — Business included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Dodd-Frank Act
The Dodd-Frank Act regulates many aspects of the financial services industry and addresses among other things, systemic risk, capital adequacy, deposit insurance assessments, consumer financial protection, derivatives and securities markets, restrictions on an insured bank’s transactions with its affiliates, lending limits and mortgage lending practices.
In light of the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief and Consumer Protection Act (“EGRRCPA”) amendments to the Dodd Frank Act and subsequent tailoring Notices of Proposed Rulemaking, the FRB provided us relief in a February 5, 2019 letter from all regulatory requirements, including disclosure requirements, related to supervisory stress testing and company-run stress testing for the 2019 stress test cycle and provided related relief from certain capital planning and regulatory reporting requirements that would otherwise apply in the 2019 stress test cycle. In addition, we were not required to submit a capital plan to the FRB for 2019 or participate in the 2019 CCAR. We remain subject to the requirement to develop and maintain an annual capital plan that is reviewed and approved by our Board of Directors (or one of its committees) and the FRB has not objected to our maximum planned capital actions for the period beginning July 1, 2019 and ending June 30, 2020. During this four-quarter period ending June 30, 2020, the FRB has not objected to capital distributions up to the amount that would have allowed us to remain above all minimum capital requirements in 2018 CCAR, adjusted for any changes in our regulatory capital ratios since the FRB acted on our 2018 capital plan.
Under Section 165 of the Dodd-Frank Act, as amended by EGRRCPA, a bank holding company with total consolidated assets of $100 billion or more, such as us, must currently submit a periodic resolution plan to the FRB and FDIC providing for the company’s strategy for rapid and orderly resolution in the event of its material financial distress or failure. On May 14, 2019, the FRB and the FDIC published a joint Notice of Proposed Rulemaking to modify the Resolution Plan Rule that would, among other things, adjust the scope of application, submission timeframe, and plan content requirements. Until the FRB and FDIC adopt the proposal in the form of a final rule, the current Resolution Plan Rule continues to apply, including the next submission date, which is December 31, 2019 for us. However, on July 26, 2019, the FRB and FDIC jointly announced the extension of the next resolution plan submission date for 15 domestic banks, including us, from December 31, 2019, to July 1, 2021, or such other date that may be specified when the FRB and FDIC adopt the final rule.
Under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, the FDIC has separately implemented a resolution planning rule that currently requires insured depository institutions of $50 billion or more in total assets, such as CBNA, to periodically submit a resolution plan. CBNA submitted its most recent resolution plan to the FDIC in July 2018. On April 22, 2019, the FDIC published an Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking concerning how to tailor and improve its rule requiring certain insured depository institutions to submit resolution plans.
On June 27, 2019, our Board of Directors authorized common share repurchases of up to $1.275 billion over the four-quarter period beginning July 1, 2019. The timing and exact amount of future share repurchases will depend on various factors, including capital position, financial performance and market conditions.
For additional discussion of the Dodd-Frank Act and EGRRCPA requirements and their related application, see “Regulation and Supervision” in Part 1, Item 1 - Business and “—Capital and Regulatory Matters” to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.
Capital Framework
Under the current U.S. Basel III capital framework, we and our banking subsidiary must meet the following specific minimum requirements: CET1 capital ratio of 4.5%, tier 1 capital ratio of 6.0%, total capital ratio of 8.0%, and tier 1 leverage ratio of 4.0%.
In July 2019, the FRB and the other federal banking regulators jointly announced the finalization of a proposal to simplify regulatory capital treatment for MSRs, certain deferred tax assets arising from temporary differences (“DTAs”) and investments in the capital of unconsolidated financial institutions, pursuant to EGRRCPA. Effective for us on April 1, 2020, the final rule will result in a change to the individual CET1 deduction threshold for these assets from 10% to 25%, elimination of the aggregate deduction threshold for these assets of 15%, assignment of a 250% risk weight for any MSRs or DTAs not deducted from CET1 capital, and assignment of an exposure category risk weight for investments in the capital of unconsolidated financial institutions not deducted from CET1 capital.

CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

A capital conservation buffer (“CCB”) is imposed on top of the following three minimum risk-based capital ratios: CET1 capital, tier 1 capital and total capital. As of January 1, 2019, the CCB reached its fully phased-in level of 2.5%. On April 10, 2018, the FRB issued a proposal designed to create a single, integrated capital requirement by combining the quantitative assessment of firms’ capital plans with the CCB requirement. If adopted, the proposal would change the way in which the minimum risk capital ratios are calculated by replacing the current static 2.5% CCB with a stress capital buffer requirement.
For additional discussion of the U.S. Basel III capital framework and its related application, see “Regulation and Supervision” in Part 1, Item 1 - Business included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

At June 30, 2019, our CET1 capital, tier 1 capital and total capital ratios were 10.5%, 11.3% and 13.4%, respectively, as compared with 10.6%, 11.3%, and 13.3%, respectively, as of December 31, 2018. The CET1 capital ratio decreased as $2.7 billion of risk-weighted asset (“RWA”) growth, the impact of the capital actions described in “—Capital Transactions” below, and an increase in goodwill and intangibles related to Acquisitions, were partially offset by net income for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The tier 1 capital ratio increased as the changes in the CET1 capital ratio were more than offset by the issuance of preferred stock as described further in “—Capital Transactions” below. The total capital ratio increased due to the changes in CET1 and tier 1 capital ratios. At June 30, 2019, our CET1 capital, tier 1 capital and total capital ratios were 353 basis points, 285 basis points and 288 basis points, respectively, above their regulatory minimums plus the capital conservation buffer. All ratios remained well above the U.S. Basel III minima.
Regulatory Capital Ratios and Capital Composition
CET1 capital under U.S. Basel III Standardized rules totaled $14.6 billion at June 30, 2019, and increased $144 million from $14.5 billion at December 31, 2018, as net income for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was partially offset by the impact of common share repurchases, dividends and an increase in goodwill and intangibles related to Acquisitions. Tier 1 capital at June 30, 2019 totaled $15.8 billion, reflecting a $437 million increase from $15.3 billion at December 31, 2018, driven by the changes in CET1 capital and the issuance of preferred stock. At June 30, 2019, we had $1.1 billion of fixed-to-floating non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock issued and outstanding, an increase of $293 million from $840 million at December 31, 2018, given the first quarter 2019 issuance of 300,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock that qualified as additional tier 1 capital. Total capital of $18.6 billion at June 30, 2019, increased $425 million from December 31, 2018, driven by the changes in CET1 and tier 1 capital.
RWA totaled $138.9 billion at June 30, 2019, based on U.S. Basel III Standardized rules, up $2.7 billion from December 31, 2018. The increase was driven by loans held for sale, the creation of a right-of-use asset in conjunction with the adoption of ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), higher derivative valuations, and growth in multi-family and education loans and commercial commitments. The increases were partially offset by a decrease in commercial loans and run-off in the home equity portfolio.

As of June 30, 2019, the tier 1 leverage ratio was 10.1%, reflecting an increase of 10 basis points from 10.0% at December 31, 2018. The increase was driven by the change in tier 1 capital level noted above, partially offset by a $2.9 billion increase in quarterly adjusted average assets.

Capital Adequacy Process
Our assessment of capital adequacy begins with our risk appetite and risk management framework. This framework provides for the identification, measurement and management of material risks. There have been no significant changes to our capital adequacy risk appetite and risk management framework as described in “—Capital and Regulatory Matters” to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.
Capital Transactions
The following capital actions were completed by the Company during the six months ended June 30, 2019:
Issued $300 million, or 300,000 shares, of 6.350% fixed-to-floating rate non-cumulative perpetual Series D Preferred Stock (the “Series D Preferred Stock”), par value of $25.00 per share with a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, with net proceeds of $292 million;
Declared quarterly common stock dividends of $0.32 per share for first and second quarters of 2019, aggregating to $297 million;
Declared a semi-annual dividend of $27.50 per share on the 5.500% fixed-to-floating rate non-cumulative perpetual Series A Preferred Stock, aggregating to $7 million;
Declared a semi-annual dividend of $30.00 per share on the 6.000% fixed-to-floating rate non-cumulative perpetual Series B Preferred Stock, aggregating to $9 million;
Declared quarterly dividends of $15.94 per share for the first and second quarters of 2019 on the 6.375% fixed-to-floating rate non-cumulative perpetual Series C Preferred Stock, aggregating to $9 million;
Declared quarterly dividends of $11.82 per share for the first quarter of 2019 and $15.88 per share for the second quarter of 2019 on the 6.350% fixed-to-floating rate non-cumulative perpetual Series D Preferred Stock, aggregating to $8 million; and
Repurchased $320 million of our outstanding common stock.

CBNA’s CET1 capital totaled $15.2 billion at June 30, 2019, up $3.2 billion from $12.0 billion at December 31, 2018. The increase was primarily driven by the net impact of the merger of Citizens Bank of Pennsylvania (“CBPA”) into CBNA effective January 2, 2019, and net income for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase was partially offset by dividend payments to the Parent Company and an increase in goodwill and intangibles related to Acquisitions. Total capital was $17.6 billion at June 30, 2019, an increase of $3.4 billion from $14.3 billion at December 31, 2018, driven by the change in CET1 capital and an increase in ACL, primarily attributable to the merger.
CBNA’s RWA totaled $138.6 billion at June 30, 2019, an increase of $25.0 billion from December 31, 2018, driven by approximately $22 billion resulting from the merger of CBPA into CBNA. In addition, the increase in RWA was driven by loans held for sale, the creation of a right-of-use asset in conjunction with the adoption of ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), higher derivative valuations and growth in multifamily loans, education loans and commercial commitments. The increases were partially offset by a decrease in commercial loans and run-off in the home equity portfolio.
As of June 30, 2019, CBNA’s tier 1 leverage ratio decreased 11 basis points to 9.7% from 9.9% at December 31, 2018, primarily driven by a $33.9 billion increase in quarterly adjusted average assets that drove a 240 basis point decline in the ratio, partially offset by a $3.2 billion increase in tier 1 capital that drove a 229 basis point increase in the ratio. These movements were primarily attributable to the merger of CBPA into CBNA.
LIQUIDITY
Liquidity is defined as our ability to meet our cash-flow and collateral obligations in a timely manner, at a reasonable cost. An institution must maintain operating liquidity to meet its expected daily and forecasted cash-flow requirements, as well as contingent liquidity to meet unexpected (stress scenario) funding requirements. As noted earlier, reflecting the importance of meeting all unexpected and stress-scenario funding requirements, we identify and manage contingent liquidity (consisting of cash balances at the FRB, unencumbered high-quality and liquid securities, and unused FHLB borrowing capacity). Separately, we also identify and manage asset liquidity as a subset of contingent liquidity (consisting of cash balances at the FRB and unencumbered high-quality securities). We consider the effective and prudent management of liquidity to be fundamental to our health and strength. We manage liquidity at the consolidated enterprise level and at each material legal entity, including at the Parent Company and CBNA level.
Parent Company Liquidity
Our Parent Company’s primary sources of cash are (i) dividends and interest received from CBNA as a result of investing in bank equity and subordinated debt and (ii) externally issued preferred stock and senior and subordinated debt. Uses of cash include the following: (i) routine cash flow requirements as a bank holding company, including periodic share repurchases and payments of dividends, interest and expenses; (ii) needs of subsidiaries, including CBNA, for additional equity and, as required, its need for debt financing; and (iii) support for extraordinary funding requirements when necessary. To the extent that the Parent Company has relied on wholesale borrowings, uses also include payments of related principal and interest.
On January 29, 2019, the Parent Company issued $300 million, or 12,000,000 depositary shares, each representing a 1/40th interest in a share of its 6.350% fixed-to-floating rate non-cumulative perpetual Series D Preferred Stock, par value of $25.00 per share with a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (equivalent to $25

CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

per depositary share). For further information, see Note 11 "Stockholders’ Equity" to our unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 — Financial Statements, included in this Report.
On July 25, 2019, the Parent Company issued $500 million in seven-year 2.850% fixed-rate senior notes.
During the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Parent Company declared and paid dividends on common stock of $148 million and $107 million, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Parent Company declared dividends on preferred stock of $18 million. No dividends were declared on preferred stock during the three months ended June 30, 2018. During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Parent Company declared and paid dividends on common stock of $297 million and $215 million, respectively, and declared dividends on preferred stock of $33 million and $7 million, respectively.
During three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Parent Company repurchased $120 million and $150 million of its outstanding common stock, respectively. During six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Parent Company repurchased $320 million and $325 million of its outstanding common stock, respectively.
Our Parent Company’s cash and cash equivalents represent a source of liquidity that can be used to meet various needs and totaled $1.2 billion as of June 30, 2019 compared with $911 million as of December 31, 2018. The Parent Company’s double-leverage ratio (the combined equity investment in Parent Company subsidiaries divided by Parent Company equity) is a measure of reliance on equity cash flows from subsidiaries to fund Parent Company obligations. At June 30, 2019, the Parent Company’s double-leverage ratio was 97.9%.
CBNA Liquidity
In the ordinary course of business, the liquidity of CBNA is managed by matching sources and uses of cash. The primary sources of bank liquidity include (i) deposits from our consumer and commercial customers; (ii) payments of principal and interest on loans and debt securities; and (iii) wholesale borrowings, as needed, and as described under “—Liquidity Risk Management and Governance.” The primary uses of bank liquidity include (i) withdrawals and maturities of deposits; (ii) payment of interest on deposits; (iii) funding of loans and related commitments; and (iv) funding of securities purchases. To the extent that CBNA has relied on wholesale borrowings, uses also include payments of related principal and interest. For further information on CBNA’s outstanding debt, see Note 8 "Borrowed Funds" to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1— Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of this Report.
As CBNA’s major businesses involve taking deposits and making loans, a key role of liquidity management is to ensure that customers have timely access to funds from deposits and for loans. Liquidity management also involves maintaining sufficient liquidity to repay wholesale borrowings, pay operating expenses and support extraordinary funding requirements when necessary.
On February 14, 2019, CBNA issued $1.5 billion in senior notes, consisting of $700 million in three-year fixed-rate notes, $300 million in three-year floating-rate notes, and $500 million in seven-year fixed-rate notes.
Liquidity Risk
We define liquidity risk as the risk that an entity will be unable to meet its payment obligations in a timely manner, at a reasonable cost. Liquidity risk can arise due to contingent liquidity risk and/or funding liquidity risk.
Contingent liquidity risk is the risk that market conditions may reduce an entity’s ability to liquidate, pledge and/or finance certain assets and thereby substantially reduce the liquidity value of such assets. Drivers of contingent liquidity risk include general market disruptions as well as specific issues regarding the credit quality and/or valuation of a security or loan, issuer or borrower and/or asset class.
Funding liquidity risk is the risk that market conditions and/or entity-specific events may reduce an entity’s ability to raise funds from depositors and/or wholesale market counterparties. Drivers of funding liquidity risk may be idiosyncratic or systemic, reflecting impediments to operations and/or damaged market confidence.
Factors Affecting Liquidity
Given the composition of assets and borrowing sources, contingent liquidity risk at CBNA would be materially affected by such events as deterioration of financing markets for high-quality securities (e.g., mortgage-backed securities and other instruments issued by the GNMA, FNMA and the FHLMC), by any inability of the FHLBs to provide collateralized advances and/or by a refusal of the FRB to act as lender of last resort in systemic stress.
Similarly, given the structure of its balance sheet, the funding liquidity risk of CBNA would be materially affected by an adverse idiosyncratic event (e.g., a major loss, causing a perceived or actual deterioration in its

39

CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

financial condition), an adverse systemic event (e.g., default or bankruptcy of a significant capital markets participant), or a combination of both. Consequently, and despite ongoing exposure to a variety of idiosyncratic and systemic events, we view our contingent liquidity risk and our funding liquidity risk to be relatively modest.
An additional variable affecting our access to unsecured wholesale market funds and to large denomination (i.e., uninsured) customer deposits is the credit ratings assigned by such agencies as Moody’s, Standard & Poor’s and Fitch. The following table presents our credit ratings:

On July 31, 2019, Fitch announced an upgrade to CFG’s short-term issuer default rating from F2 to F1, an upgrade to CBNA’s short-term issuer default rating from F2 to F1, and an upgrade to CBNA’s short-term deposit rating from F2 to F1.
Changes in our public credit ratings could affect both the cost and availability of our wholesale funding. As a result, and in order to maintain a conservative funding profile, our banking subsidiary continues to minimize reliance on unsecured wholesale funding. At June 30, 2019, our wholesale funding consisted primarily of secured borrowings from the FHLBs collateralized by high-quality residential mortgages, and term debt issued by the Parent Company and CBNA.
Existing and evolving regulatory liquidity requirements, such as the LCR, represent another key driver of systemic liquidity conditions and liquidity management practices. The FRB, the OCC, and the FDIC regularly evaluate our liquidity as part of the overall supervisory process. In addition we are subject to existing and evolving regulatory liquidity requirements, some of which are subject to further rulemaking, guidance and interpretation by the applicable federal regulators. For further discussion, see “Regulation and Supervision — Financial Regulatory Reform” and “—Liquidity Requirements” in Part I, Item 1 — Business, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.    
The LCR was developed to ensure banks have sufficient high-quality liquid assets to cover expected net cash outflows over a 30-day liquidity stress period. We are designated as a modified LCR financial institution under the final rule published by U.S. federal banking regulators and were compliant beginning in January 2017. We remain fully compliant with the LCR as of June 30, 2019.
Liquidity Risk Management and Governance
Liquidity risk is measured and managed by the Funding and Liquidity unit within our Treasury unit in accordance with policy guidelines promulgated by our Board and the Asset Liability Committee. In managing liquidity risk, the Funding and Liquidity unit delivers regular and comprehensive reporting, including current levels versus threshold limits for a broad set of liquidity metrics and early warning indicators, explanatory commentary relating to emerging risk trends and, as appropriate, recommended remedial strategies.
Our Funding and Liquidity unit’s primary goal is to deliver and otherwise maintain prudent levels of operating liquidity (to support expected and projected funding requirements), and contingent liquidity (to support unexpected funding requirements resulting from idiosyncratic, systemic, and combination stress events, and regulatory liquidity requirements) in a timely manner from stable and cost-efficient funding sources.

40

CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

We seek to accomplish this goal by funding loans with stable deposits; by prudently controlling dependence on wholesale funding, particularly short-term unsecured funding; and by maintaining ample available liquidity, including a contingent liquidity buffer of unencumbered high-quality loans and securities. As of June 30, 2019:
Core deposits continued to be our primary source of funding and our consolidated period end loan-to-deposit ratio, which excludes loans held for sale, was 94.2%;
Our cash position (which is defined as cash balance held at the FRB) totaled $2.0 billion;
Contingent liquidity was $31.3 billion, consisting of unencumbered high-quality liquid securities of $20.3 billion, unused FHLB capacity of $9.0 billion, and our cash position of $2.0 billion. Asset liquidity (a component of contingent liquidity) was $22.3 billion consisting of our cash position of $2.0 billion and unencumbered high-quality liquid securities of $20.3 billion;
Available discount window capacity, defined as available total borrowing capacity from the FRB based on identified collateral, is secured by non-mortgage commercial and retail loans and totaled $13.5 billion. Use of this borrowing capacity would be considered only during exigent circumstances; and
For a summary of our sources and uses of cash by type of activity for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, see the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows in Part I, Item 1 — Financial Statements, included in this Report.
The Funding and Liquidity unit monitors a variety of liquidity and funding metrics and early warning indicators and metrics, including specific risk thresholds limits. These monitoring tools are broadly classified as follows:
Current liquidity sources and capacities, including cash at the FRBs, free and liquid securities and available and secured FHLB borrowing capacity;
Liquidity stress sources, including idiosyncratic, systemic and combined stresses, in addition to evolving regulatory requirements such as the LCR; and
Current and prospective exposures, including secured and unsecured wholesale funding and spot and cumulative cash-flow gaps across a variety of horizons.
Further, certain of these metrics are monitored individually for CBNA and for our consolidated enterprise on a daily basis, including cash position, unencumbered securities, asset liquidity, and available FHLB borrowing capacity. In order to identify emerging trends and risks and inform funding decisions, specific metrics are also forecasted over a one-year horizon.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
Our unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements, which are included in this Report, are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to establish accounting policies and make estimates that affect amounts reported in our audited Consolidated Financial Statements.
An accounting estimate requires assumptions and judgments about uncertain matters that could have a material effect on our unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements. Estimates are made using facts and circumstances known at a point in time. Changes in those facts and circumstances could produce results substantially different from those estimates. Our most significant accounting estimates relate to the determination of the ACL

41

CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

and the fair value of MSRs. For additional information regarding these accounting estimates and their related application, see “—Critical Accounting Estimates” to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. No material changes were made to these critical accounting policies or estimates during the six months ended June 30, 2019.
RISK GOVERNANCE
We are committed to maintaining a strong, integrated, and proactive approach to the management of all risks to which we are exposed in pursuit of our business objectives. A key aspect of our Board’s responsibility as the main decision making body is setting our risk appetite to ensure that the levels of risk that we are willing to accept in the attainment of our strategic business and financial objectives are clearly understood.
To enable our Board to carry out its objectives, it has delegated authority for risk management activities, as well as governance and oversight of those activities, to a number of Board and executive management level risk committees. The Executive Risk Committee (“ERC”), chaired by the Chief Risk Officer, is responsible for oversight of risk across the enterprise and actively considers our inherent material risks, analyzes our overall risk profile and seeks confirmation that the risks are being appropriately identified, assessed and mitigated. Reporting to the ERC are the following additional committees covering specific areas of risk: Compliance and Operational Risk Committee, Model Risk Committee, Credit Policy Committee, Asset Liability Committee, Business Initiatives Review Committee, and the Conduct and Ethics Committee.
There have been no significant changes in our risk governance practices, risk framework, risk appetite, or credit risk as described in “—Risk Governance” to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.
MARKET RISK
Market risk refers to potential losses arising from changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, equity prices, commodity prices and/or other relevant market rates or prices. Modest market risk arises from trading activities that serve customer needs, including hedging of interest rate and foreign exchange risk. As described below, more material market risk arises from our non-trading banking activities, such as loan origination and deposit-gathering. We have established enterprise-wide policies and methodologies to identify, measure, monitor and report market risk. We actively manage both trading and non-trading market risks.
Non-Trading Risk
We are exposed to market risk as a result of non-trading banking activities. This market risk is substantially composed of interest rate risk, as we have no direct currency or commodity risk and de minimis equity risk. We also have market risk related to capital markets loan originations, as well as the valuation of our MSRs. There have been no significant changes in our sources of interest rate risk, interest rate risk practices, risk framework, metrics or assumptions as described in “—Market Risk — Non-Trading Risk” to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.
The table below reports net interest income exposures against a variety of interest rate scenarios. Our policies involve measuring exposures as a percentage change in net interest income over the next year due to either instantaneous or gradual parallel changes in rates relative to the market implied forward yield curve. As the following table illustrates, our balance sheet is asset sensitive; net interest income would benefit from an increase in interest rates, while exposure to a decline in interest rates is within limit. While an instantaneous and severe shift in interest rates was used in this analysis, we believe that any actual shift in interest rates would likely be more gradual and would therefore have a more modest impact.

Given broad expectations the FRB would cut interest rates, we reduced asset sensitivity to mitigate the potential impact of declining rates. Asset sensitivity against a 200 basis point gradual increase in rates was 2.9% at June 30, 2019, a decrease from 4.9% at December 31, 2018. Additionally, we have reduced our short-term interest rate exposure (six months and under) to approximately 25%, with the remainder in the intermediate to long tenors of the curve. The risk position can be affected by changes in interest rates which impact the repricing sensitivity or beta of the deposit base as well as the cash flows on prepayable assets. The risk position is managed within our risk limits, and long term view of interest rates through occasional adjustments to securities investments, interest rate swaps and mix of funding.
We use a valuation measure of exposure to structural interest rate risk, Economic Value of Equity (“EVE”), as a supplement to net interest income simulations. EVE complements net interest income simulation analysis as it estimates risk exposure over a long-term horizon. EVE measures the extent to which the economic value of assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet instruments may change in response to fluctuations in interest rates. This analysis is highly dependent upon assumptions applied to assets and liabilities with non-contractual maturities. The change in value is expressed as a percentage of regulatory capital.
We use interest rate swap contracts to manage the interest rate exposure to variability in the interest cash flows on our floating-rate assets and floating-rate wholesale funding, and to hedge market risk on fixed-rate capital markets debt issuances. The table below summarizes the related hedging activities.

Capital Markets
A key component of our capital markets activities is the underwriting and distribution of corporate credit facilities to partially finance mergers and acquisitions transactions for our clients. We have a rigorous risk management process around these activities, including a limit structure capping our underwriting risk, our potential loss, and sub limits for specific asset classes.  Further, the ability to approve underwriting exposure is delegated only to senior level individuals in the credit risk management and capital markets organizations with each transaction adjudicated in a formal committee meeting.

Mortgage Servicing Rights    
We have market risk associated with the value of MSRs, which are impacted by various types of inherent risks, including risks related to duration, basis, convexity, volatility and yield curve. We have elected to account for the MSRs acquired from FAMC or originated after December 31, 2018 at fair value while maintaining a lower of cost or market approach on our non-FAMC MSRs originated before December 31, 2018.
As part of our overall risk management strategy relative to the fair market value of the MSRs acquired from FAMC or originated after December 31, 2018, we enter into various free-standing derivatives, such as interest rate swaps, interest rate swaptions, interest rate futures, and forward contracts to purchase mortgage-backed securities to economically hedge the changes in fair value. As of June 30, 2019, the fair value of these MSRs was $531 million and the total notional amount of related derivative contracts was $11.5 billion. Gains and losses on MSRs and the related derivatives used for hedging are included in mortgage banking fees on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, our non-FAMC MSRs originated on or before December 31, 2018 had a book value of $189 million and $221 million, respectively, and were carried at the lower of cost or market. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, these MSRs had a fair value of $193 million and $243 million, respectively, which exceeded the carrying value at those dates. Depending on the interest rate environment, economic hedges may be used to protect the market value of these MSRs.
As with our traded market risk based activities, earnings at-risk excludes the impact of MSRs. MSRs are captured under our single price risk management framework that is used for calculating a management value at risk that is consistent with the definition used by banking regulators, as defined below.
Trading Risk
We are exposed to market risk primarily through client facilitation activities including derivatives and foreign exchange products as well as underwriting and market making activities. Exposure is created as a result of changes in interest rates and related basis spreads and volatility, foreign exchange rates, and credit spreads on a select range of interest rates, foreign exchange, commodities, corporate bonds and secondary loan instruments. These trading activities are conducted through CBNA and CCMI. There have been no significant changes in our market risk governance, market risk measurement, or market risk practices including VaR, stressed VaR, sensitivity analysis, stress testing, or VaR model review and validation as described in “—Market Risk — Trading Risk” to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Market Risk Regulatory Capital
The U.S. banking regulators’ “Market Risk Rule” covers the calculation of market risk capital and substantially modified the determination of market risk-weighted assets and implemented a more risk sensitive methodology for the risk inherent in certain trading positions categorized as “covered positions.” For the purposes of the Market Risk Rule, all of our client facing trades and associated hedges need to maintain a low risk profile to qualify, and do qualify, as “covered positions.” For the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, we were not subject to the reporting threshold under the Market Risk Rule. As a result, the $634 million and $767 million of calculated market risk-weighted assets as of June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, were not included in our risk-weighted assets. As such, our covered trading activities were risk-weighted under U.S. Basel III Standardized credit risk rules. While not subject to the determination requirements of market risk-weighted assets, we nevertheless comply with the Market Risk Rule’s other requirements. The internal management VaR measure is calculated based on the same population of trades that is utilized for regulatory VaR. The following table presents the results of our modeled and non-modeled measures for regulatory capital calculations:

VaR Backtesting
Backtesting is one form of validation of the VaR model and is run daily. The Market Risk Rule requires a comparison of our internal VaR measure to the actual net trading revenue (excluding fees, commissions, reserves, intra-day trading and net interest income) for each day over the preceding year (the most recent 250 business days). Any observed loss in excess of the VaR number is taken as an exception. The level of exceptions determines the multiplication factor used to derive the VaR and SVaR-based capital requirement for regulatory reporting purposes, when applicable. We perform sub-portfolio backtesting as required under the Market Risk Rule, and as approved by our banking regulators, for interest rate, credit spread, and foreign exchange positions. The following graph shows our daily net trading revenue and total internal, modeled VaR for the twelve months ended June 30, 2019.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements, including the Notes thereto of Citizens Financial Group, Inc., have been prepared in accordance with GAAP interim reporting requirements, and therefore do not include all information and Notes included in the audited Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP. These unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. The Company’s principal business activity is banking, conducted through its banking subsidiary, Citizens Bank, National Association.
The unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and subsidiaries in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The Company has evaluated its unconsolidated entities and does not believe that any entity in which it has an interest, but does not currently consolidate, meets the requirements to be consolidated as a variable interest entity. The unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near-term relate to the determination of the ACL and the fair value of MSRs.
Significant Accounting Policies
For further information regarding the Company’s significant accounting policies, see Note 1 “Basis of Presentation” to the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Pronouncement
Summary of Guidance
Effects on Financial Statements
Derivatives and Hedging

Issued August 2017
Reduces the complexity and operational burdens of the current hedge accounting model and portrays more clearly the effects of hedge accounting in the financial statements.

Modifies current requirements to facilitate the application of hedge accounting to partial-term hedges, hedges of prepayable financial instruments, and other strategies. Adoption of these optional changes would occur on a prospective basis.

Requires the effects of fair value hedges to be classified in the same income statement line as the earnings effect of the hedged item. Adoption of this change will occur on a prospective basis.

Requires all effects of cash flow hedges to be deferred in other comprehensive income until the hedged cash flows affect earnings. Periodic hedge ineffectiveness will no longer be recognized in earnings. Adoption of this change will occur on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption.
The Company adopted the new standard on January 1, 2019 under the modified retrospective method.

Adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

Required disclosures are included in Note 9 “Derivatives”.

Summary of Guidance
Effects on Financial Statements
Leases

Issued February 2016


Requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability for all leases with a lease term of greater than one year.

Requires lessees and lessors to classify most leases using principles similar to existing lease accounting, but eliminates the “bright line” classification tests.

Requires that for finance leases, a lessee recognize interest expense on the lease liability separately from the amortization of the right-of-use asset in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, while for operating leases, such amounts should be recognized as a combined expense.

Requires expanded disclosures about the nature and terms of lease agreements.

Provides the option to adopt using either a modified cumulative-effect approach wherein the guidance is applied to all periods presented, or through a cumulative-effect adjustment beginning in the period of adoption.

Requires companies with land easements to assess whether the easement meets the definition of a lease before applying other accounting guidance.
The Company adopted the new standard under the modified retrospective approach on January 1, 2019, which is applicable to both its leasing finance business as well as property and equipment leases in which Citizens is lessee.

Adoption resulted in a cumulative-effect adjustment of $12 million, net of taxes, to retained earnings related to leases in which Citizens is lessee.

Adoption resulted in the recognition of a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability of $734 million and $749 million, respectively in its Consolidated Balance Sheet for non-cancelable operating lease agreements.

Required lessor disclosures are included in Note 3 “Loans and Leases” and required lessee disclosures are included in Note 6 “Leases”.
Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement

Issued August 2018
Requires implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract be deferred and recognized over the term of the arrangement if those costs would be capitalized in a software licensing arrangement.

Requires amortization expense be presented in the same income statement line item as the related hosting service arrangement expense.

Permits adoption prospectively for all implementation costs incurred after adoption or retrospectively through a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the beginning of the first period presented.

The Company prospectively adopted the new standard on January 1, 2019.

Adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

Summary of Guidance
Effects on Financial Statements
Financial Instruments - Credit Losses

Issued June 2016

Replaces existing incurred loss impairment guidance and establishes a single allowance framework for financial assets carried at amortized cost (including securities HTM), which will reflect management’s estimate of credit losses over the full remaining expected life of the financial assets.

Amends existing impairment guidance for securities AFS to incorporate an allowance, which will allow for reversals of impairment losses in the event that the credit of an issuer improves.

Requires a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the reporting period of adoption.



Required effective date: January 1, 2020.

A company-wide, cross-discipline governance structure is in place to implement the new standard. The Company is currently finalizing key interpretive issues, revising policies, procedures and related internal controls, and completing the development, configuration and validation of loss forecasting models to meet the requirements of the new guidance. The implementation team is also in the process of assessing forecast accuracy, qualitative factors, how the reasonable and supportable forecast period will be determined and documented, as well as the impacts of that decision in different parts of the credit cycle.

Analytical testing of the models was completed and parallel testing started in the second quarter of 2019.

The Company expects the standard will result in earlier recognition of credit losses and an overall increase in the ACL, as it will cover estimated credit losses over the full remaining expected life of loans and commitments and will consider future reasonable and supportable changes in macroeconomic conditions. Since the magnitude of the increase in the Company’s ACL will be impacted by economic conditions, forecasted economic conditions, credit quality and trends in the Company’s portfolio at the time of adoption, the quantitative impact cannot yet be reasonably estimated.

Based on the credit quality of our existing debt securities portfolio, the Company does not expect the allowance for credit losses for HTM and AFS debt securities to be significant.

Disclosure Requirements - Fair Value Measurements

Issued August 2018
Amends disclosure requirements on fair value measurements.

The guidance eliminates requirements for certain disclosures that are no longer considered relevant or cost beneficial, requires new disclosures and modifies existing disclosures that are expected to enhance the usefulness of the financial statements.

Prospective application is required for new disclosure requirements.

Retrospective application is required for all other amendments for all periods presented.

Required effective date: January 1, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not intend to adopt this guidance prior to the required effective date.

Adoption is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

Citizens does not currently have the intent to sell these impaired debt securities, and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell these debt securities prior to recovery of their amortized cost bases. Citizens has determined that credit losses are not expected to be incurred on the remaining agency and non-agency MBS identified with unrealized losses as of June 30, 2019. The unrealized losses on these debt securities reflect non-credit-related factors such as changing interest rates and market liquidity. Therefore, Citizens has determined that these debt securities are not other-than-temporarily impaired. Any subsequent increases in the valuation of impaired debt securities will not impact their recorded cost bases.

Certain lease agreements include rental payments based on an index or are adjusted periodically for inflation. The Company does not have lease agreements which contain lease and nonlease components.
A lessee is evaluated from a credit perspective using the same underwriting standards and procedures as for a loan borrower. A lessee is expected to make rental payments based on its cash flows and the viability of its operations. Leases are usually not evaluated as collateral-based transactions, and therefore the lessee’s overall financial strength is the most important credit evaluation factor.

NOTE 4 - ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES, NONPERFORMING ASSETS, AND CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK
The ACL consists of the ALLL and the reserve for unfunded commitments. It is adjusted through a provision for credit losses that is charged to earnings, based on the Company’s quarterly evaluation of the loan and lease portfolio and related commitments, and is reduced by net charge-offs and the ALLL associated with sold loans. See Note 5 “Allowance for Credit Losses, Nonperforming Assets, and Concentrations of Credit Risk” to the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, for a detailed discussion of the ALLL reserve methodology and estimation techniques.
On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews and refines its estimate of the ACL, taking into consideration changes in portfolio size and composition, historical loss experience, internal risk ratings, current economic conditions, industry performance trends and other pertinent information. As of June 30, 2019, there were no material changes in assumptions or estimation techniques compared with prior periods that impacted the determination of the current period’s ALLL and the reserve for unfunded lending commitments.

Troubled Debt Restructurings
TDR is the classification given to a loan that has been restructured in a manner that grants a concession to a borrower experiencing financial hardship that we would not otherwise make. For additional information on regulatory classification ratings, see Note 5 “Allowance for Credit Losses, Nonperforming Assets, and Concentrations of Credit Risk” to the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

(2) Includes modifications that consist of multiple concessions, one of which is a maturity extension (unless one of the other concessions was an interest rate reduction).
(3) Includes modifications other than interest rate reductions or maturity extensions, such as lowering scheduled payments for a specified period of time, principal forgiveness, and capitalizing arrearages. Also included are the following: deferrals, trial modifications, certain bankruptcies, loans in forbearance and prepayment plans. Modifications can include the deferral of accrued interest resulting in post modification balances being higher than pre-modification.
The net change to ALLL resulting from modifications of loans for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was $2 million and $1 million, respectively. The net change to ALLL resulting from modifications of loans for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was $4 million and $2 million, respectively. Charge-offs may also be recorded on TDRs. Citizens recorded $1 million of charge-offs resulting from the modification of loans in the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, and $2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.
    A payment default refers to a loan that becomes 90 days or more past due under the modified terms. Loan data includes loans meeting the criteria that were paid off in full, charged off, or sold prior to June 30, 2019 and 2018. For commercial loans, recorded investment in TDRs that defaulted within 12 months of their modification date for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 were $1 million and $17 million, respectively, and $1 million and $20 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. For retail loans, there were $10 million and $10 million of loans which defaulted within 12 months of their restructuring date for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and there were $19 million of loans which defaulted within 12 months of their restructuring date for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.

Concentrations of Credit Risk
Most of the Company’s lending activity is with customers located in the New England, Mid-Atlantic and Midwest regions. Generally, loans are collateralized by assets including real estate, inventory, accounts receivable, other personal property and investment securities. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, Citizens had a significant amount of loans collateralized by residential and commercial real estate. There were no significant concentration risks within the commercial loan or retail loan portfolios. Exposure to credit losses arising from lending transactions may fluctuate with fair values of collateral supporting loans, which may not perform according to contractual agreements. The Company’s policy is to collateralize loans to the extent necessary; however, unsecured loans are also granted on the basis of the financial strength of the applicant and the facts surrounding the transaction.
Certain loan products, including residential mortgages, home equity loans and lines of credit, and credit cards, have contractual features that may increase credit exposure to the Company in the event of an increase in interest rates or a decline in housing values. These products include loans that exceed 90% of the value of the underlying collateral (high LTV loans), interest-only and negative amortization residential mortgages, and loans with low introductory rates. Certain loans have more than one of these characteristics. The following tables present balances of loans with these characteristics:

NOTE 5 - MORTGAGE BANKING
The Company sells residential mortgages to GSEs and other parties, who may issue securities backed by pools of such loans. The Company retains no beneficial interests in these sales, but may retain the servicing rights for the loans sold. The Company is obligated to subsequently repurchase a loan if the purchaser discovers a representation or warranty violation such as noncompliance with eligibility or servicing requirements, or customer fraud that should have been identified in a loan file review.

(1) Reported in mortgage banking fees on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

In connection with the August 1, 2018 acquisition of FAMC, the Company began maintaining two separate classes of MSRs which, at the time of initial capitalization, were differentiated by how the risk associated with valuation changes of the MSRs was being managed. The acquired FAMC portfolio is accounted for under the fair value method while the Company’s MSR portfolio held before the FAMC acquisition is accounted for under the amortization method. Beginning January 1, 2019, all of the Company’s newly originated MSRs are accounted for under the fair value method. The Company implemented an active hedging strategy to manage the risk associated with changes in the value of the MSR portfolio accounted for under the fair value method, which includes the purchase of freestanding derivatives. Depending on the interest rate environment, economic hedges may be used to protect the market value of MSRs accounted for under the amortization method. Any changes in fair value during the period for MSRs carried under the fair value method, as well as amortization and impairment of MSRs under the amortization method, are recorded in mortgage banking fees in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The following table summarizes changes in MSRs recorded using the amortization method for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.

CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)


The fair value of MSRs is estimated by using the present value of estimated future net servicing cash flows, taking into consideration actual and expected mortgage loan prepayment rates, discount rates, contractual servicing fee income, servicing costs, default rates, ancillary income, and other economic factors, which are determined based on current market interest rates. The valuation does not attempt to forecast or predict the future direction of interest rates.
The sensitivity analyses below present the impact to current fair value of an immediate 50 basis point and 100 basis point adverse change in key economic assumptions and the decline in fair value if the respective adverse change was realized. These sensitivities are hypothetical, with the effect of a variation in a particular assumption on the fair value of the MSRs calculated independently without changing any other assumption. In reality, changes in one factor may result in changes in another (e.g., changes in interest rates, which drive changes in prepayment rates, could result in changes in the discount rates), which may amplify or counteract the sensitivities. The primary risk inherent in the Company’s MSRs is an increase in prepayments of the underlying mortgage loans serviced, which is dependent upon movements in market interest rates.

Citizens accounts for derivatives in its mortgage banking operations at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as derivative assets or derivative liabilities, depending on whether the derivative had a positive (asset) or negative (liability) fair value as of the balance sheet date. The Company’s mortgage banking derivatives include commitments to originate mortgages held for sale, certain loan sale agreements, and other financial instruments that meet the definition of a derivative. Refer to Note 9 "Derivatives" for additional information.
NOTE 6 - LEASES
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception and records a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability. A right-of-use asset represents the value of the Company’s contractual right to use an underlying leased asset and a lease liability represents the Company’s contractual obligation to make payments on the same underlying leased asset. Operating and finance lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of the lease payments over the non-cancelable lease term. As most of the Company’s leases do not specify an implicit rate, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the lease commencement date to determine the present value of the lease payments. The Company evaluates right-of-use assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable.

In its normal course of business, the Company leases both equipment and real estate, including office and branch space. Lease terms predominantly range from one year to ten years and may include options to extend the lease, terminate the lease, or purchase the underlying asset at the end of the lease. Certain lease agreements include rental payments based on an index or are adjusted periodically for inflation. The Company has lease

agreements that contain lease and non-lease components and for certain real estate leases, these components are accounted for as a single lease component.

Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and are recognized in occupancy expense in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations on a straight-line basis over the remaining lease term. The Company may also enter into subleases with third parties for certain leased real estate properties that are no longer occupied.

NOTE 7 - VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
Citizens is involved in various entities that are considered VIEs, including investments in limited partnerships that sponsor affordable housing projects, limited liability companies that sponsor renewable energy projects and lending to special purpose entities. Citizens’ maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement with these entities is limited to the balance sheet carrying amount of its equity investment and outstanding principal balance of loans to special purpose entities.

Low Income Housing Tax Credit Partnerships
The purpose of the Company’s equity investments is to assist in achieving the goals of the Community Reinvestment Act and to earn an adequate return of capital. LIHTC partnerships are managed by unrelated general partners that have the power to direct the activities which most significantly affect the performance of the partnerships. Citizens is therefore not the primary beneficiary of any LIHTC partnerships. Accordingly, Citizens does not consolidate these VIEs and accounts for these investments in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Citizens applies the proportional amortization method to account for its LIHTC investments. Under the proportional amortization method, the Company applies a practical expedient and amortizes the initial cost of the investment in proportion to the tax credits received in the current period as compared to the total tax credits expected to be received over the life of the investment. The amortization and tax benefits are included as a component of income tax expense. The tax credits received are reported as a reduction of income tax expense (or an increase to income tax benefit) related to these transactions.

No LIHTC investment impairment losses were recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Renewable Energy Entities
The Company’s investments in renewable energy entities provide benefits from a return generated by government incentives plus other tax attributes that are associated with tax ownership (e.g., tax depreciation). As a tax equity investor, Citizens does not have the power to direct the activities which most significantly affect the performance of these entities and therefore is not the primary beneficiary of any renewable energy entities. Accordingly, Citizens does not consolidate these VIEs and accounts for these investments in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Lending to Special Purpose Entities
Citizens provides lending facilities to third-party sponsored special purpose entities. Because the sponsor for each respective entity has the power to direct how proceeds from the Company are utilized, as well as maintains responsibility for any associated servicing commitments, Citizens is not the primary beneficiary of these entities. Accordingly, Citizens does not consolidate these VIEs on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the lending facilities had aggregate unpaid principal balances of $848 million and $613 million, respectively, and undrawn commitments to extend credit of $660 million and $584 million, respectively.

Advances, lines of credit, and letters of credit from the FHLB are collateralized by pledged mortgages and pledged securities at least sufficient to satisfy the collateral maintenance level established by the FHLB. The utilized borrowing capacity for FHLB advances and letters of credit was $7.4 billion and $13.0 billion at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The Company’s available FHLB borrowing capacity was $9.0 billion and $4.8 billion at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Citizens can also borrow from the FRB discount window to meet short-term liquidity requirements. Collateral, including certain loans, is pledged to support this borrowing capacity. At June 30, 2019, the Company’s unused secured borrowing capacity was approximately $42.8 billion, which includes unencumbered securities, FHLB borrowing capacity, and FRB discount window capacity.

NOTE 9 - DERIVATIVES
In the normal course of business, Citizens enters into a variety of derivative transactions in order to meet the financing needs of its customers and to reduce its own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. These transactions include interest rate swap contracts, interest rate options, foreign exchange contracts, residential loan commitment rate locks, interest rate future contracts, swaptions, forward commitments to sell to-be-announced mortgage securities (“TBAs”), forward sale contracts and purchase options. The Company monitors the results of each transaction to ensure that management’s intent is satisfied. The Company does not use derivatives for speculative purposes.
The Company’s derivative instruments are recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. Information regarding the valuation methodology and inputs used to estimate the fair value of the Company’s derivative instruments is described in Note 13 "Fair Value Measurements" to the Company’s unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2019 and Note 19 “Fair Value Measurements” to the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

(1) The notional or contractual amount of interest rate derivatives and foreign exchange contracts is the amount upon which interest and other payments under the contract are based. For interest rate contracts, the notional amount is typically not exchanged. Therefore, notional amounts should not be taken as the measure of credit or market risk, as they do not measure the true economic risk of these contracts.
(2) Amounts represent the impact of enforceable master netting agreements that allow the Company to net settle positive and negative positions.

CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)


The Company’s derivative transactions are internally divided into three sub-groups: institutional, customer and residential loan. Citizens has certain derivative transactions which are designated as fair value or cash flow hedges, described as follows:
Derivatives Designated As Hedging Instruments
The Company’s institutional derivatives portfolio qualifies for hedge accounting treatment. This includes interest rate swaps that are designated as highly effective fair value and cash flow hedging relationships. The Company formally documents at inception all hedging relationships, as well as risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking various accounting hedges. Additionally, Citizens monitors the effectiveness of its hedge relationships during the duration of the hedge relationship. The methods utilized to assess hedge effectiveness vary based on the type of item being hedged. The Company discontinues hedge accounting treatment when it is determined that a derivative is not expected to be, or has ceased to be, effective as a hedge and then reflects changes in fair value in earnings after termination of the hedge relationship.
Fair Value Hedges
Citizens has outstanding interest rate swap agreements to manage the interest rate exposure on its medium-term borrowings as well as certain fixed rate residential mortgages. The changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument and changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability attributable to the hedged risk are recorded in the same income statement line in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The following table reflects the change in fair value of interest rate contracts, designated as fair value hedges, as well as the change in fair value of the related hedged items attributable to the risk being hedged, included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations:

(1)The balance reported for long-term borrowed funds includes ($3) million of cumulative hedging adjustments recorded on discontinued fair value hedging relationships.
Cash Flow Hedges
Citizens has outstanding interest rate swap agreements designed to hedge a portion of the Company’s floating rate assets and liabilities. All of these swaps have been deemed as highly effective cash flow hedges. The entire change in the fair value of the interest rate swap included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness is recorded in OCI and reclassified from OCI to current period earnings (interest income or interest expense) in the same period that the hedged item affects earnings. During the next 12 months, there are $11 million in pre-tax net losses on derivative instruments included in OCI expected to be reclassified to net interest income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. This amount could differ from amounts actually recognized due to changes in interest rates, hedge de-designations, and the addition of other hedges subsequent to June 30, 2019.

CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)


During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, there were no gains or losses reclassified from OCI to current period earnings (other income) associated with the discontinuance of the Company’s cash flow hedges because it was probable that the original forecasted transaction would no longer occur by the end of the originally specified time period.

Derivatives Not Designated As Hedging Instruments
Economic Hedges
The Company’s customer derivatives are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. These include interest rate and foreign exchange derivative contracts that are designed to meet the hedging and financing needs of the Company’s customers. The mark-to-market gains and losses associated with the customer derivatives are mitigated by mark-to-market gains and losses on interest rate and foreign exchange derivative contracts transacted. Citizens also purchases interest rate floors primarily to hedge the exposure related to customer deposit products that have embedded minimum interest rate guarantees. Citizens utilizes interest rate floors in non-qualifying hedging relationships.
The Company’s residential loan derivatives (including residential loan commitments and forward sales contracts) are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. Citizens also uses derivatives to hedge the risk of changes in the fair value of its residential MSR portfolio. Certain residential MSRs are accounted for at fair value with changes in the fair value influenced primarily by changes in interest rates. Derivatives used to hedge the value of residential MSRs include TBAs, AFS securities, interest rate swaptions, interest rate futures and interest rate swaps.

Commitments to Extend Credit
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to customers in accordance with conditions contractually agreed upon in advance. Generally, the commitments have fixed expiration dates or termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of these commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the contract amounts are not necessarily indicative of future cash requirements.
In first quarter 2019, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase education loans on a quarterly basis beginning with first quarter 2019 and ending with fourth quarter 2019. The total minimum and maximum amount of the aggregate purchase principal balance of loans under the terms of the agreement are $600 million and $1.0 billion, respectively, and the remaining maximum principal purchase commitment is $700 million as

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)


of June 30, 2019.
The Company’s commercial loan trading desk provides ongoing secondary market support and liquidity to its clients. Unsettled loan trades (i.e., loan purchase contracts) represent firm commitments to purchase loans from a third party at an agreed-upon price. Principal amounts associated with unsettled commercial loan trades are off-balance sheet commitments until delivery of the loans has taken place. The principal balances of unsettled commercial loan trade purchases and sales were $106 million and $114 million, respectively, at June 30, 2019 and $68 million and $161 million, respectively, at December 31, 2018.
Letters of Credit
Letters of credit in the table above reflect commercial, standby financial and standby performance letters of credit. Standby letters of credit, both financial and performance, are issued by the Company for its customers. They are used as conditional guarantees of payment to a third party in the event the customer either fails to make specific payments (financial) or fails to complete a specific project (performance). The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of counterparty nonperformance in connection with the above instruments is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments, net of the value of collateral held. Generally, letters of credit are collateralized by cash, accounts receivable, inventory or investment securities. Credit risk associated with letters of credit is considered in determining the appropriate amounts of reserves for unfunded commitments. Standby letters of credit and commercial letters of credit are issued for terms of up to ten years and one year, respectively.
Other Commitments
Citizens has additional off-balance sheet arrangements that are summarized below:
Marketing Rights - During 2003, Citizens entered into a 25-year agreement to acquire the naming and marketing rights of a baseball stadium in Pennsylvania.
Loans sold with recourse - Citizens is an originator and servicer of residential mortgages and routinely sells such mortgage loans in the secondary market and to GSEs. In the context of such sales, the Company makes certain representations and warranties regarding the characteristics of the underlying loans and, as a result, may be contractually required to repurchase such loans or indemnify certain parties against losses for certain breaches of those representations and warranties. The Company also sells the government guaranteed portion of certain SBA loans to outside investors, for which it retains the servicing rights.
Risk Participation Agreements - RPAs are guarantees issued by the Company to other parties for a fee, whereby the Company agrees to participate in the credit risk of a derivative customer of the other party. The current amount of credit exposure is spread out over 83 counterparties. RPAs generally have terms ranging from one year to five years; however, certain outstanding agreements have terms as long as nine years.
Contingencies
The Company operates in a legal and regulatory environment that exposes it to potentially significant risks. A certain amount of litigation ordinarily results from the nature of the Company’s banking and other businesses. The Company is a party to legal proceedings, including class actions. The Company is also the subject of investigations, reviews, subpoenas, and regulatory matters arising out of its normal business operations, which, in some instances, relate to concerns about fair lending, unfair and/or deceptive practices, mortgage-related issues, and mis-selling of certain products. In addition, the Company engages in discussions with relevant governmental and regulatory authorities on a regular and ongoing basis regarding various issues, and any issues discussed or identified may result in investigatory or other action being taken. Litigation and regulatory matters may result in settlements, damages, fines, penalties, public or private censure, increased costs, required remediation, restrictions on business activities, or other impacts on the Company.
In these disputes and proceedings, the Company contests liability and the amount of damages as appropriate. Given their complex nature, and based on the Company's experience, it may be years before some of these matters are finally resolved. Moreover, before liability can be reasonably estimated for a claim, numerous legal and factual issues may need to be examined, including through potentially lengthy discovery and determination of important factual matters, and by addressing novel or unsettled legal issues relevant to the proceedings in question. The Company cannot predict with certainty if, how, or when such claims will be resolved or what the eventual settlement, fine, penalty or other relief, if any, may be, particularly for claims that are at an early stage in their development or where claimants seek substantial or indeterminate damages. The Company recognizes a provision for a claim when, in the opinion of management after seeking legal advice, it is probable that a liability exists and the amount

89

CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)


of loss can be reasonably estimated. In many proceedings, however, it is not possible to determine whether any loss is probable or to estimate the amount of any loss.
Based on information currently available, the advice of legal counsel and other advisers, and established reserves, management believes that the aggregate liabilities, if any, potentially arising from these proceedings will not have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements.
NOTE 13 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Citizens measures or monitors many of its assets and liabilities on a fair value basis. Fair value is used on a recurring basis for assets and liabilities for which fair value is the required or elected measurement basis of accounting. Additionally, fair value is used on a nonrecurring basis to evaluate assets for impairment or for disclosure purposes. Nonrecurring fair value adjustments typically involve the application of lower of cost or market accounting or write-downs of individual assets. Citizens also applies the fair value measurement guidance to determine amounts reported for certain disclosures in this Note for assets and liabilities that are not required to be reported at fair value in the financial statements.
Fair Value Option
Citizens elected to account for residential mortgage LHFS and certain commercial and commercial real estate LHFS at fair value. For these LHFS, the aggregate fair value approximates the aggregate unpaid principal balance. For more information on the election of the fair value option for these assets see Note 19 “Fair Value Measurements,” to the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is also used on a nonrecurring basis to evaluate certain assets for impairment or for disclosure purposes. Examples of nonrecurring uses of fair value include MSRs accounted for by the amortization method and loan impairments for certain loans and leases. For more information on the valuation techniques utilized to measure nonrecurring fair value see Note 19 “Fair Value Measurements,” to the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

The information presented in the “Market Risk” section of Part I, Item 2 — Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The Company maintains a set of disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in management's evaluation pursuant to Rules13a-15(d) or 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act during the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Amended and Effective as of April 25, 2019
    
The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Citizens Financial Group, Inc. (the “Company”) has approved this director compensation policy (this “Policy”), which establishes compensation to be paid to each Non-Employee Director (as defined in the Citizens Financial Group, Inc. 2014 Non-Employee Directors Compensation Plan (the “Plan”)), as an inducement to obtain and retain the services of persons qualified to serve as members of the Board. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Policy will have the meanings set forth in the Plan.

This Policy is subject to annual review by the Compensation and Human Resources Committee of the Board (the “Committee”) to confirm continued alignment between the compensation of the Company’s Non-Employee Directors, the Company’s business and its shareholders’ interests, and to ensure that the Company’s director compensation program is competitive with those of its peers. During the course of its review, the Committee may consider the annual retainer, lead director and committee chair retainers, meeting fees and other benefits offered to Non-Employee Directors and payable under this Policy. The Committee may amend, revise, suspend, discontinue or terminate this Policy at any time.

The elements of compensation for the Company’s Non-Employee Directors below are expressed as annual amounts.

On the date of each annual general meeting of stockholders of the Company, each Non-Employee Director who at such meeting is elected to serve on the Board or whose term is scheduled to continue at least through the date of the next such meeting of stockholders will receive an annual award of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) pursuant to and subject to the Plan (and any applicable award agreement thereunder). The number of shares of Company common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”) covered by the annual RSU award will be determined by dividing $130,000 by the closing price of a share of Common Stock on the grant date. Each annual award will vest 100% on the earlier to occur of the first anniversary of the grant date or the Company’s next scheduled annual general meeting of stockholders, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and applicable award agreement thereunder.
Any Non-Employee Director who commences service on the Board on a date other than the date of the Company’s annual general meeting of stockholders will receive on such start date a pro-rated annual award, with the number of shares of Common Stock covered by such award determined by dividing (i) the product of $130,000 and a fraction, the numerator of which is 365 minus the number of days that have elapsed between the date of such meeting and such start date, and the denominator of which is 365, by (ii) the closing price of a share of Common Stock on such start date.

(b)    Holders of options and other types of awards granted by a company acquired by the Company or with which the Company combines are eligible for grants of Substitute Awards under the Plan to the extent permitted under applicable regulations of any stock exchange on which the Company is listed.
Section 4.    Administration.
(a)    Administration of the Plan. The Plan shall be administered by the Committee, which shall be appointed by the Board. All decisions of the Committee shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties, including the Company, its shareholders, Participants and any Beneficiaries thereof. The Committee may issue rules and regulations for administration of the Plan. It shall meet at such times and places as it may determine.
(b)    Composition of Committee. To the extent necessary or desirable to comply with Applicable Laws and other applicable regulatory regimes, any action by the Committee shall require the approval of Committee members who are (i) independent, within the meaning of and to the extent required by applicable rulings and interpretations of the applicable stock market or exchange on which the Shares are quoted or traded; (ii) a non-employee Director within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act; and (iii) an outside Director pursuant to Section 162(m) of the Code. The Board may designate one or more Directors as alternate members of the Committee who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any meeting of the Committee. To the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, including under Section 157(c) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Committee may delegate to one or more officers of the Company the authority to grant Options and SARs or other Awards in the form of Share rights, except that such delegation shall not be applicable to any Award for a Person then covered by Section 16 of the Exchange Act, and the Committee may delegate to one or more committees of the Board (which may consist

5
    


of solely one Director) the authority to grant all types of Awards, in accordance with Applicable Laws.

(c)    Authority of Committee. Subject to the terms of the Plan and Applicable Laws, the Committee (or its delegate) shall have full power and authority to: (i) designate Participants; (ii) determine the type or types of Awards (including Substitute Awards) to be granted to each Participant under the Plan; (iii) determine the number of Shares to be covered by (or with respect to which payments, rights or other matters are to be calculated in connection with) Awards; (iv) determine the terms and conditions of any Award; (v) determine whether, to what extent and under what circumstances Awards may be settled or exercised in cash, Shares, other Awards, other property, net settlement, or any combination thereof, or canceled, forfeited or suspended, and the method or methods by which Awards may be settled, exercised, canceled, forfeited or suspended; (vi) determine whether, to what extent and under what circumstances cash, Shares, other Awards, other property and other amounts payable with respect to an Award under the Plan shall be deferred either automatically or at the election of the holder thereof or of the Committee; (vii) amend terms or conditions of any outstanding Awards or portion thereof, including without limitation, to accelerate the time or times at which the Award becomes vested, unrestricted or may be exercised; (viii) correct any defect, supply any omission and reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or any Award, in the manner and to the extent it shall deem desirable to carry the Plan into effect; (ix) interpret and administer the Plan and any instrument or agreement relating to, or Award made under, the Plan; (x) establish, amend, suspend or waive such rules and regulations and appoint such agents, trustees, brokers, depositories and advisors and determine such terms of their engagement as it shall deem appropriate for the proper administration of the Plan and due compliance with Applicable Laws or accounting rules and regulations; and (xi) make any other determination and take any other action that the Committee deems necessary or desirable for the administration of the Plan and due compliance with Applicable Laws or accounting rules and regulations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Board may, in its sole discretion, at any time and from time to time, grant Awards or administer the Plan. In any such case, the Board shall have all of the authority and responsibility granted to the Committee herein.

Section 5.    Shares Available for Awards.
(a)    Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 5(c) and except for Substitute Awards, the maximum number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan shall not exceed in the aggregate 51,969,949 Shares plus any Returning Shares.
(b)    If any Award is forfeited, expires, terminates, otherwise lapses or is settled for cash, in whole or in part, without the delivery of Shares, then the Shares covered by such forfeited, expired, terminated or lapsed Award shall again be available for grant under the Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, the following Shares will not again become available for issuance under the Plan: (i) any Shares withheld in respect of taxes relating to any Award; (ii) any Shares tendered or withheld to pay the exercise price of Options; (iii) any Shares not issued or delivered as a result of the net settlement of SARs; or (iv) Shares repurchased by the Company on the open market with the cash proceeds from the exercise of Options.
(c)    In the event that the Committee determines that, as a result of any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Shares or other securities), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, separation, rights offering, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase or exchange of

6
    


Shares or other securities of the Company, issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase Shares or other securities of the Company, issuance of Shares pursuant to the anti-dilution provisions of securities of the Company, or other similar corporate transaction or event affecting the Shares, or of changes in Applicable Laws, regulations or accounting principles, an adjustment is appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan, then the Committee shall, subject to compliance with Section 409A of the Code, adjust equitably (including, without limitation, by payment of cash) any or all of:
(i)    the number and type of Shares (or other securities) which thereafter may be made the subject of Awards, including the aggregate limit specified in Section 5(a) and the individual limit specified in Section 5(e);
(ii)    the number and type of Shares (or other securities) subject to outstanding Awards; and
(iii)    the grant, purchase, exercise or hurdle price with respect to any Award or, if deemed appropriate, make provision for a cash payment to the holder of an outstanding Award;
provided, however, that the number of Shares subject to any Award denominated in Shares shall always be a whole number.
(d)    Any Shares delivered pursuant to an Award may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued Shares or Shares acquired by the Company.
(e)     The following limits shall apply to the amount that may be awarded to any Participant during any calendar year, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 5(c): (i) Options and SARs that relate to no more than 1,000,000 Shares; (ii) Restricted Stock and RSUs that relate to no more than 1,000,000 Shares; (iii) Share-based Performance Awards and Other Share-Based Awards that relate to no more than 1,000,000 Shares; (iv) Share-based Deferred Awards that relate to no more than 1,000,000 Shares; (v) cash-based Deferred Awards that relate to no more than $15,000,000; and (vi) cash-based Performance Awards and Other Cash-Based Awards that relate to no more than $15,000,000.
Section 6.    Options. The Committee is authorized to grant Options to Participants with the following terms and conditions and with such additional terms and conditions, in either case not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as the Committee shall determine:
(a)    The exercise price per Share under an Option shall be determined by the Committee at the time of grant; provided, however, that, except in the case of Substitute Awards, and subject to Section 6(f), such exercise price shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant of such Option.
(b)    The term of each Option shall be fixed by the Committee but shall not exceed 10 years from the date of grant of such Option; provided that the Committee may (but shall not be required to) provide in an Award Agreement for an extension of such 10-year term in the event the exercise of the Option would be prohibited by law on the expiration date.
(c)    Subject to Section 13(i), the Committee shall determine the time or times at which an Option becomes vested and exercisable in whole or in part.

7
    


(d)    The Committee shall determine the method or methods by which, and the form or forms, including cash, Shares, other Awards, other property, net settlement, broker assisted cashless exercise or any combination thereof, having a Fair Market Value on the exercise date equal to the exercise price of the Shares as to which the Option shall be exercised, in which payment of the exercise price with respect thereto may be made or deemed to have been made.
(e)    No grant of Options may be accompanied by a tandem award of dividend equivalents or provide for dividends, dividend equivalents or other distributions to be paid on such Options.
(f)    The terms of any Incentive Stock Option granted under the Plan shall comply in all respects with the provisions of Section 422 of the Code. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to employees of the Company or of a parent or subsidiary corporation (as defined in Section 424(a) of the Code). Notwithstanding any designation as an Incentive Stock Option, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of Shares subject to a Participant’s Incentive Stock Options that become exercisable for the first time during any calendar year exceeds $100,000, such excess Options shall be treated as Non-Qualified Stock Options. For purposes of the foregoing, Incentive Stock Options shall be taken into account in the order in which they were granted, and the Fair Market Value of the Shares shall be determined as of the time of grant. No Incentive Stock Options may be issued more than ten years following the earlier of (i) the date of adoption of this Plan by the Board or (ii) the date of approval of this Plan by the Company’s shareholders. In the case of a 10% shareholder, the exercise price per Share under an Incentive Stock Option shall not be less than 110% of the Fair Market Value on the date of grant of such Incentive Stock Option and the term of such Incentive Stock Option shall not exceed five years from the date of grant of such Incentive Stock Option.

Section 7.    Stock Appreciation Rights. The Committee is authorized to grant SARs to Participants with the following terms and conditions and with such additional terms and conditions, in either case not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as the Committee shall determine:
(a)    SARs may be granted under the Plan to Participants either alone (“freestanding”) or in addition to other Awards granted under the Plan (“tandem”) and may, but need not, relate to a specific Option granted under Section 6.
(b)    The exercise or hurdle price per Share under a SAR shall be determined by the Committee; provided, however, that, except in the case of Substitute Awards, such exercise or hurdle price shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant of such SAR.
(c)    The term of each SAR shall be fixed by the Committee but shall not exceed 10 years from the date of grant of such SAR.
(d)    Subject to Section 13(i), the Committee shall determine the time or times at which a SAR may be exercised or settled in whole or in part.
(e)    Upon the exercise of a SAR, the Company shall pay to the Participant an amount equal to the number of Shares subject to the SAR multiplied by the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of one Share on the exercise date over the exercise or hurdle price of such SAR. The Company shall pay such excess in cash, in Shares valued at Fair Market Value, or any combination thereof, as determined by the Committee.

8
    


(f)    No grant of SARs may be accompanied by a tandem award of dividend equivalents or provide for dividends, dividend equivalents or other distributions to be paid on such SARs.
Section 8.    Restricted Stock and RSUs. The Committee is authorized to grant Awards of Restricted Stock and RSUs to Participants with the following terms and conditions and with such additional terms and conditions, in either case not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as the Committee shall determine:
(a)    Subject to Section 13(i), the Award Agreement shall specify the vesting schedule and, with respect to RSUs, the delivery schedule (which may include deferred delivery later than the vesting date) and whether the Award of Restricted Stock or RSUs is entitled to voting rights or any other rights. Shares of Restricted Stock and RSUs shall be subject to such restrictions as the Committee may impose, which restrictions may lapse separately or in combination at such time or times, in such installments or otherwise, as the Committee may deem appropriate.
(b)    The Committee may specify in the applicable Award Agreement that any or all dividends, dividend equivalents or other distributions, as applicable, paid on Awards of Restricted Stock or RSUs prior to vesting or settlement, as applicable, be paid either in cash or in additional Shares and either on a current or deferred basis and that such dividends, dividend equivalents or other distributions may be reinvested in additional Shares, which may be subject to the same restrictions as the underlying Awards; provided, however, that dividends, dividend equivalents or other distributions, as applicable, on Awards of Restricted Stock and RSUs with restrictions that lapse as a result of the achievement of performance conditions shall be deferred until and paid contingent upon the achievement of the applicable performance conditions.
(c)    Any Share of Restricted Stock granted under the Plan may be evidenced in such manner as the Committee may deem appropriate, including book-entry registration or issuance of a stock certificate or certificates. In the event any stock certificate is issued in respect of shares of Restricted Stock granted under the Plan, such certificate shall be registered in the name of the Participant and shall bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions and restrictions applicable to such Restricted Stock.
(d)    If, and to the extent the Committee intends that an Award granted under this Section 8 shall constitute or give rise to Section 162(m) Compensation, such Award shall be structured in accordance with the requirements of Section 9, including the performance criteria set forth therein and the Award limitation set forth in Section 5(e), and any such Award shall be considered a Performance Award for purposes of the Plan.
(e)    The Committee may provide in an Award Agreement that an Award of Restricted Stock is conditioned upon the Participant making or refraining from making an election with respect to the Award under Section 83(b) of the Code. If a Participant makes an election pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code with respect to an Award of Restricted Stock, the Participant shall be required to file promptly a copy of such election with the Company and the applicable Internal Revenue Service office.
(f)    The Committee may determine the form or forms (including cash, Shares, other Awards, other property or any combination thereof) in which payment of the amount owing upon settlement of any RSU Award may be made.

9
    


Section 9.    Performance Awards. The Committee is authorized to grant Performance Awards to Participants with the following terms and conditions and with such additional terms and conditions, in either case not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as the Committee shall determine:
(a)    Performance Awards may be denominated as a cash amount, number of Shares or a combination thereof and are Awards which may be earned upon achievement or satisfaction of performance conditions specified by the Committee. In addition, the Committee may specify that any other Award shall constitute a Performance Award by conditioning the right of a Participant to exercise the Award or have it settled, and the timing thereof, upon achievement or satisfaction of such performance conditions as may be specified by the Committee. The Committee may use such business criteria and other measures of performance as it may deem appropriate in establishing any performance conditions. Subject to the terms of the Plan, the performance goals to be achieved during any Performance Period, the length of any Performance Period, the amount of any Performance Award granted and the amount of any payment or transfer to be made pursuant to any Performance Award shall be determined by the Committee.
(b)    If the Committee intends that a Performance Award should constitute Section 162(m) Compensation for purposes of this Plan, such Performance Award shall include a pre-established formula, such that payment, retention or vesting of the Award is subject to the achievement during a Performance Period or Performance Periods, as determined by the Committee, of a level or levels of, or increases in, in each case as determined by the Committee, one or more of the following performance measures or any other performance measure reasonably determined by the Committee, with respect to the Company:
(i)    return measures (including, but not limited to, total shareholder return; return on equity; return on tangible common equity; return on tier 1 common equity; return on assets or net assets; return on risk-weighted assets; and return on capital (including return on total capital or return on invested capital));
(ii)    revenues (including, but not limited to, total revenue; gross revenue; net revenue; revenue growth; and net sales);
(iii)    income/earnings measures (including, but not limited to, earnings per share; earnings or loss (including earnings before or after interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization); gross income; net income after cost of capital; net interest income; non-interest income; fee income; net interest margin; operating income (before or after taxes); pre- or after-tax income or loss (before or after allocation of corporate overhead and bonus); pre- or after-tax operating income; net earnings; net income or loss (before or after taxes); operating margin; gross margin; and adjusted net income);
(iv)    expense measures (including, but not limited to, expenses; operating efficiencies; non-interest expense and operating/efficiency ratios; and improvement in or attainment of expense levels or working capital levels (including cash and accounts receivable));
(v)    balance sheet/risk management measures (including, but not limited to, loans; deposits; assets; tangible equity; charge-offs; net charge-offs; non-performing assets or loans; risk-weighted assets; classified assets;

10
    


criticized assets; allowance for loans and lease losses; loan loss reserves; asset quality levels; year-end cash; investments; interest-sensitivity gap levels; regulatory compliance; satisfactory internal or external audits; financial ratings; shareholders’ equity; tier 1 capital; and liquidity);
(vi)    cash flow measures (including, but not limited to, cash flow or cash flow per share (before or after dividends); and cash flow return on investment);
(vii) share price measures (including, but not limited to, share price; appreciation in and/or maintenance of share price; and market capitalization);
(viii) strategic objectives (including, but not limited to, market share; debt reduction; operating efficiencies; customer satisfaction; customer growth; employee satisfaction; research and development achievements; branding; mergers and acquisitions; succession management; people development; management retention; dynamic market response; expense reduction initiatives; reductions in costs; risk management; regulatory compliance and achievements; implementation, completion or attainment of measurable objectives with respect to research, development, commercialization, products or projects, production volume levels, acquisitions and divestitures; factoring transactions; and recruiting and maintaining personnel); and
(ix)    other measures (including, but not limited to, economic value-added models or equivalent metrics; economic profit added; gross profits; economic profit; comparisons with various stock market indices; financial ratios (including those measuring liquidity, activity, profitability or leverage); cost of capital or assets under management; and financing and other capital raising transactions (including sales of the Company’s equity or debt securities; factoring transactions; sales or licenses of the Company’s assets, including its intellectual property, whether in a particular jurisdiction or territory or globally; or through partnering transactions)).
Performance criteria may be measured on an absolute (e.g., plan or budget) or relative basis, may be established on a corporate-wide basis or with respect to one or more business units, divisions, subsidiaries or business segments, may be based on a ratio or separate calculation of any performance criteria and may be made relative to an index or one or more of the performance goals themselves. Relative performance may be measured against a group of peer companies, a financial market index or other acceptable objective and quantifiable indices, subject to Applicable Laws. Except in the case of an Award intended to qualify as Section 162(m) Compensation, if the Committee determines that a change in the business, operations, corporate structure or capital structure of the Company, or the manner in which the Company conducts its business, or other events or circumstances render the performance objectives unsuitable, the Committee may modify the performance objectives or the related minimum acceptable level of achievement, in whole or in part, as the Committee deems appropriate and equitable. Performance measures may vary from Performance Award to Performance Award and from Participant to Participant, and may be established on a stand-alone basis, in tandem or in the alternative. The Committee shall have the power to impose such other restrictions on Awards subject to this Section 9(b) as it may deem necessary or appropriate to ensure that such Awards satisfy all requirements for Section 162(m) Compensation or requirements of any Applicable Laws

11
    


or accounting rules and regulations. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, with respect to any Award intended to be Section 162(m) Compensation, the Committee shall not be authorized to increase the amount payable under any Award to which this Section 9(b) applies upon attainment of such pre-established formula.
(c)    Settlement of Performance Awards shall be in cash, Shares, other Awards, other property, net settlement, or any combination thereof, as determined in the discretion of the Committee. The Committee shall specify the circumstances in which, and the extent to which, Performance Awards shall be paid or forfeited in the event of a Participant’s termination of service.
(d)    Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, the Committee may provide for the payment of dividend equivalents on Performance Awards either in cash or in additional Shares, subject in all cases to payment on a deferred and contingent basis based on the Participant’s earning of the Performance Shares upon achievement or satisfaction of performance conditions specified by the Committee with respect to which such dividend equivalents are paid.
(e)    Performance Awards shall be settled only after the end of the relevant Performance Period. The Committee may, in its discretion, increase or reduce the amount of a settlement otherwise to be made in connection with a Performance Award but, to the extent required by Section 162(m) of the Code, may not exercise discretion to increase any amount payable to a Covered Employee in respect of a Performance Award intended to qualify as Section 162(m) Compensation. Any settlement that changes the form of payment from that originally specified shall be implemented in a manner such that the Performance Award and other related Awards do not, solely for that reason, fail to qualify as Section 162(m) Compensation.
Section 10.    Deferred Awards. The Committee is authorized, subject to limitations under Applicable Laws, to grant to Participants Deferred Awards, which may be a right to receive Shares or cash under the Plan (either independently or as an element of or supplement to any other Award under the Plan), including, as may be required by any Applicable Laws or as determined by the Committee, in lieu of any annual bonus that may be payable to a Participant under any applicable bonus plan or arrangement. The Committee shall determine the terms and conditions of such Deferred Awards, including, without limitation, the method of converting the amount of annual bonus into a Deferred Award, if applicable, and the form, vesting, settlement, forfeiture and cancellation provisions or any other criteria, if any, applicable to such Deferred Awards. Shares underlying a Share-denominated Deferred Award, which is subject to a vesting schedule or other conditions or criteria, including forfeiture or cancellation provisions, set by the Committee shall not be issued until or following the date that those conditions and criteria have been satisfied. Deferred Awards shall be subject to such restrictions as the Committee may impose (including any limitation on the right to vote a Share underlying a Deferred Award or the right to receive any dividend, dividend equivalent or other right), which restrictions may lapse separately or in combination at such time or times, in such installments or otherwise, as the Committee may deem appropriate. The Committee may determine the form or forms (including cash, Shares, other Awards, other property or any combination thereof) in which payment of the amount owing upon settlement of any Deferred Award may be made.
Section 11.    Other Cash-Based Awards and Other Share-Based Awards. The Committee is authorized, subject to limitations under Applicable Laws, to grant to Participants Other Cash-Based Awards (either independently or as an element of or supplement to any other Award under the Plan) and Other Share-Based Awards. The Committee shall determine the terms and conditions of such Awards. Shares delivered pursuant to an Award in the nature of a

12
    


purchase right granted under this Section 11 shall be purchased for such consideration, paid for at such times, by such methods and in such forms, including cash, Shares, other Awards, other property, net settlement, broker-assisted cashless exercise or any combination thereof, as the Committee shall determine; provided that the purchase price therefore shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of such Shares on the date of grant of such right.
Section 12.    Effect of Termination of Service or a Change of Control on Awards.
(a)    The Committee may provide, by rule or regulation or in any applicable Award Agreement, or may determine in any individual case, the circumstances in which, and the extent to which, an Award may be exercised, settled, vested, paid or forfeited in the event of the Participant’s termination of service prior to the end of a Performance Period or vesting, exercise or settlement of such Award.
(b)    In the event of a Change of Control, except as otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, the Committee may provide for: (i) continuation or assumption of such outstanding Awards under the Plan by the Company (if it is the surviving corporation) or by the surviving corporation or its parent; (ii) substitution by the surviving corporation or its parent of awards with substantially the same terms and value for such outstanding Awards (in the case of an Option or SAR Award, the Intrinsic Value at grant of such Substitute Award shall equal the Intrinsic Value of the Award); (iii) acceleration of the vesting (including the lapse of any restrictions, with any performance criteria or other performance conditions deemed met at target) or right to exercise such outstanding Awards immediately prior to or as of the date of the Change of Control, and the expiration of such outstanding Awards to the extent not timely exercised by the date of the Change of Control or other date thereafter designated by the Committee; or (iv) in the case of an Option or SAR Award, cancelation in consideration of a payment in cash or other consideration to the Participant who holds such Award in an amount equal to the Intrinsic Value of such Award (which may be equal to but not less than zero), which, if in excess of zero, shall be payable upon the effective date of such Change of Control. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of a Change of Control, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, terminate any Option or SAR Awards for which the exercise or hurdle price is equal to or exceeds the per Share value of the consideration to be paid in the Change of Control transaction without payment of consideration therefor.

Section 13.    General Provisions Applicable to Awards.
(a)    Awards shall be granted for such cash or other consideration, if any, as the Committee determines; provided that in no event shall Awards be issued for less than such minimal consideration as may be required by Applicable Laws.
(b)    Awards may, in the discretion of the Committee, be granted either alone or in addition to or in tandem with any other Award or any award granted under any other plan of the Company. Awards granted in addition to or in tandem with other Awards, or in addition to or in tandem with awards granted under any other plan of the Company, may be granted either at the same time as or at a different time from the grant of such other Awards or awards.
(c)    Subject to the terms of the Plan, payments or transfers to be made by the Company upon the grant, exercise or settlement of an Award may be made in the form of cash, Shares, other Awards, other property, net settlement, or any combination thereof, as determined by the Committee in its discretion at the time of grant, and may be made in a single payment or transfer, in installments or on a deferred basis, in

13
    


each case in accordance with rules and procedures established by the Committee. Such rules and procedures may include provisions for the payment or crediting of reasonable interest on installment or deferred payments or the grant or crediting of dividend equivalents in respect of installment or deferred payments.
(d)    Except as may be permitted by the Committee (except with respect to Incentive Stock Options) or as specifically provided in an Award Agreement, (i) no Award and no right under any Award shall be assignable, alienable, saleable or transferable by a Participant otherwise than by will or pursuant to Section 13(e) and (ii) during a Participant’s lifetime, each Award, and each right under any Award, shall be exercisable only by such Participant or, if permissible under Applicable Laws, by such Participant’s guardian or legal representative. The provisions of this Section 13(d) shall not apply to any Award that has been fully exercised or settled, as the case may be, and shall not preclude forfeiture of an Award in accordance with the terms thereof.
 
(e)    A Participant may designate a Beneficiary or change a previous Beneficiary designation only at such times as prescribed by the Committee, in its sole discretion, and only by using forms and following procedures approved or accepted by the Committee for that purpose.
(f)    All certificates for Shares and/or other securities delivered under the Plan pursuant to any Award or the exercise thereof shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the Plan or Applicable Laws (including the rules, regulations and other requirements of the SEC, any stock market or exchange upon which such Shares or other securities are then quoted, traded or listed, and any applicable securities laws), and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions.
(g)    The Committee may impose restrictions on any Award with respect to non-competition, confidentiality and other restrictive covenants as it deems necessary or appropriate in its sole discretion.
(h)    The Board shall have the power to impose such additional terms, provisions and restrictions with respect to any Award as it may deem necessary or appropriate to ensure that such Awards satisfy all requirements of any Applicable Law.
(i)    Except as otherwise provided herein, each Award shall have a minimum vesting period, as applicable, of one year from the date of grant; provided, however, that the Committee may provide for earlier vesting upon a Participant’s termination of employment or service by reason of death or disability, or a Change of Control (as defined in Section 1(g)).  Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, 5% of the maximum number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan shall not be subject to the minimum vesting period described in the preceding sentence. The provisions of this Section 13(i) shall not apply to any Award granted prior to the effective date of the amendment to the Plan incorporating such provisions.
Section 14.    Amendments and Terminations.
(a)    Amendment or Termination of the Plan. Except to the extent prohibited by Applicable Laws and unless otherwise expressly provided in an Award Agreement or in the Plan, the Board may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate the Plan or any portion thereof at any time; provided, however, that no such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuation or termination shall be made

14
    


without (i) shareholder approval if such approval is required by Applicable Laws (including the rules of the stock market or exchange, if any, on which the Shares are principally quoted or traded) or (ii) subject to Section 5(c) and Section 12, the consent of the affected Participant, if such action would materially adversely affect the rights of such Participant under any outstanding Award, except (x) to the extent any such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuance or termination is made to cause the Plan to comply with Applicable Laws or accounting rules and regulations or (y) to impose any “clawback” or recoupment provisions on any Awards in accordance with Section 18. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, the Committee may amend the Plan, or create sub-plans, in such manner as may be necessary to enable the Plan to achieve its stated purposes in any jurisdiction in a tax-efficient manner and in compliance with local rules and regulations.
 
(b)    Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, each Award shall terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such action, unless otherwise determined by the Committee.
(c)    Terms of Awards. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any other provisions of this Plan, the Committee may waive any conditions or rights under, amend any terms of, or amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate any Award theretofore granted, prospectively or retroactively, without the consent of any relevant Participant or holder or Beneficiary of an Award; provided, however, that, subject to Section 5(c) and Section 12, no such action shall materially adversely affect the rights of any affected Participant or holder or Beneficiary under any Award theretofore granted under the Plan, except (x) to the extent any such action is made to cause the Plan to comply with Applicable Laws or accounting rules and regulations, or (y) to impose any “clawback” or recoupment provisions on any Awards in accordance with Section 18; provided further, that the Committee’s authority under this Section 14(c) is limited in the case of Awards subject to Section 9(b), as provided in Section 9(b). Except as provided in Section 9, the Committee shall be authorized to make adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, Awards in recognition of events (including the events described in Section 5(c)) affecting the Company, or the financial statements of the Company, or of changes in Applicable Laws or accounting principles, whenever the Committee determines that such adjustments are appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan.
(d)    No Repricing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as provided in Section 5(c), no action shall directly or indirectly, through cancellation and exchange for cash or other Awards, regrant, or any other method, reduce, or have the effect of reducing, the exercise or hurdle price of any Award established at the time of grant thereof without approval of the Company’s shareholders.
Section 15.    Miscellaneous.
(a)    No Employee, Consultant, Participant or other Person shall have any claim to be granted any Award under the Plan, and there is no obligation for uniformity of treatment of employees, Participants or holders or Beneficiaries of Awards under the Plan. The terms and conditions of Awards need not be the same with respect to each recipient. Any Award granted under the Plan shall be a one-time Award that does not constitute a promise of future grants. The Company, in its sole discretion, maintains the right to make available future grants under the Plan.

15
    


(b)    The grant of an Award shall not be construed as giving a Participant the right to be retained in the employ of, or to continue to provide services to, the Company or any Subsidiary. The receipt of any Award under the Plan is not intended to confer any rights on the receiving Participant except as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement.
(c)    Nothing contained in the Plan shall prevent the Company from adopting or continuing in effect other or additional compensation arrangements, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.
(d)    The Company shall be authorized to withhold from any Award granted or any payment due or transfer made under any Award or under the Plan or from any compensation or other amount owing to the Participant the amount (in cash, Shares, other Awards, other property, net settlement, or any combination thereof) of applicable withholding taxes due in respect of an Award, its exercise or settlement or any payment or transfer under such Award or under the Plan and to take such other action (including providing for elective payment of such amounts in cash or Shares by such Participant) as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such taxes; provided that if the Committee allows the withholding or surrender of Shares to satisfy the Participant’s tax withholding obligations, the Company shall not allow Shares to be withheld in an amount that exceeds statutory withholding rates for federal and state tax purposes, including payroll taxes.
(e)    If any provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, or as to any Person or Award, or would disqualify the Plan or any Award under any Applicable Law deemed applicable by the Committee, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to Applicable Laws, or if it cannot be so construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Committee, materially altering the intent of the Plan or the Award Agreement, such provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction, Person or Award, and the remainder of the Plan and any such Award Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
(f)    Neither the Plan nor any Award shall create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company and a Participant or any other Person. To the extent that any Person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company pursuant to an Award, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.
(g)    No fractional Shares shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan or any Award, and the Committee shall determine whether cash or other securities shall be paid or transferred in lieu of any fractional Shares, or whether such fractional Shares or any rights thereto shall be canceled, terminated or otherwise eliminated.
Section 16.    Effective Date of the Plan. The Plan shall be effective as of the Effective Date, subject to its approval by the Board and the shareholder(s) of the Company.
Section 17.    Term of the Plan. No Award shall be granted under the Plan after the earliest to occur of (i) the tenth-year anniversary of the Effective Date; (ii) the maximum number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan have been issued; or (iii) the Board terminates the Plan in accordance with Section 14(a). However, unless otherwise expressly provided in the Plan or in an applicable Award Agreement, any Award theretofore granted may extend beyond such date, and the authority of the Committee to amend, alter, adjust,

16
    


suspend, discontinue or terminate any such Award, or to waive any conditions or rights under any such Award, and the authority of the Board to amend the Plan, shall extend beyond such date.
Section 18. Cancellation or “Clawback” of Awards. The Committee shall have full authority to implement any policies and procedures necessary to comply with Applicable Laws, including but not limited to Section 10D of the Exchange Act, Section 956 of the Dodd-Frank Act and any rules promulgated thereunder and any other regulatory regimes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Committee may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws or by any applicable Company policy or arrangement, and shall, to the extent required, cancel or require reimbursement of any Awards granted to the Participant or any Shares issued or cash received upon vesting, exercise or settlement of any such Awards or sale of Shares underlying such Awards.
Section 19.    Section 409A of the Code. With respect to Awards subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Plan is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations thereunder, and the provisions of the Plan and any Award Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner that satisfies the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, and the Plan shall be operated accordingly. If any provision of the Plan or any term or condition of any Award would otherwise frustrate or conflict with this intent, the provision, term or condition shall be interpreted and deemed amended so as to avoid this conflict. Notwithstanding anything else in the Plan, if the Board considers a Participant to be a “specified employee” under Section 409A of the Code at the time of such Participant’s “separation from service” (as defined in Section 409A of the Code), and the amount hereunder is “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code, any distribution that otherwise would be made to such Participant with respect to an Award as a result of such “separation from service” shall not be made until the date that is six months after such “separation from service,” except to the extent that earlier distribution would not result in such Participant’s incurring interest or additional tax under Section 409A of the Code. If the Award includes a “series of installment payments” (within the meaning of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations), the Participant’s right to the series of installment payments shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments and not as a right to a single payment and if the Award includes “dividend equivalents” (within the meaning of Section 1.409A-3(e) of the Treasury Regulations), the Participant’s right to the dividend equivalents shall be treated separately from the right to other amounts under the Award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the tax treatment of the benefits provided under the Plan or any Award Agreement is not warranted or guaranteed, and in no event shall the Company be liable for all or any portion of any taxes, penalties, interest or other expenses that may be incurred by the Participant on account of non-compliance with Section 409A of the Code.
Section 20.    Successors and Assigns. The terms of the Plan shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and any successor entity, including any successor entity contemplated by Section 12.
Section 21.    Governing Law. The Plan and each Award Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without application of the conflicts of law principles thereof.
