. At that point, the right to elect additional directors terminates and the terms of office of the two additional directors so elected will terminate immediately, and the
number of directors will be reduced by two and such voting rights of the holders of new Fifth Third preferred stock and any Voting Parity Securities will cease, subject to any increase in the number of directors as described above due to the
revesting of such voting rights in the event of each and every additional failure in the payment of dividends or six quarterly dividend periods, or their equivalent, whether or not consecutive, as described above.

The holders of new Fifth Third preferred stock, together with holders of any Voting Parity Securities, voting together as a class, may remove any director

preferred stock participating in the votes described above will be in proportion to the liquidation preference of such share.

In addition, at the time the series is deemed a class of voting securities,
