| Q: | What happens if holders of Comerica common stock do not approve, by                                                                                          
 non-binding, advisory vote, the merger-related compensation arrangements for Comerica’s named executive officers (i.e., the Comerica compensation proposal)? |

A:The votes on the proposal to approve the merger-related compensation arrangements for Comerica’s named executive officers are separate and apart from the votes to approve the other proposals being presented at the Comerica special meeting, including the Comerica merger proposal. Because the vote to approve the Comerica compensation proposal is advisory in nature only, it will not be binding upon Comerica in the first merger. Accordingly, the merger-related compensation will be paid to Comerica’s named executive officers to the extent payable in accordance with the terms of their compensation agreements and other contractual arrangements even if the holders of Comerica common stock do not approve the Comerica compensation proposal.

 separate packages of proxy materials. A vote cast as a Fifth Third voting shareholder will not count as a vote cast as a holder of Comerica common stock, and a vote cast as a holder of Comerica common stock will not count as a vote cast as a Fifth 
 Third voting shareholder. Therefore, please submit separate proxies for your voting shares of Fifth Third stock and your shares of Comerica common stock.                                                                                               |
