The existence of the above provisions could potentially result in Fifth Third being less attractive to a potential acquiror, or result in Fifth Third shareholders receiving less for their shares of Fifth Third common stock than otherwise might be available if there is a takeover attempt. The OGCL has eliminated dissenters’ rights in connection with the above corporate actions if the shares of the corporation for which a stockholder would make a demand are listed on a national securities exchange and no proceedings are underway to delist the shares. Therefore, none of the Fifth Third shareholders who own shares of Fifth Third stock listed on a national securities exchange could exercise dissenter’s rights with respect to such shares unless, and until, such shares would be delisted. Description of Fifth Third Preferred Stock The Fifth Third board of directors has the right to adopt amendments to the Fifth Third articles of incorporation in respect of any unissued or treasury shares of the Fifth Third preferred stock and fix or change: (1) the division of such shares of the Fifth Third preferred stock into series and the designation and authorized number of shares of each series; (2) the dividend rate; (3) whether dividend rights shall be cumulative or non-cumulative;(4) the dates of payment of dividends and the dates from which they are cumulative; (5) liquidation price; (6) redemption rights and price; (7) sinking fund requirements; and (8) conversion rights; and restrictions on the issuance of such shares or any series thereof. 144
