 No. of Restricted Stock Units: Up to 355,410 
  
 THIS AGREEMENT, dated May 17, 2004, between CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL
CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (“Capital One”), and Richard D. Fairbank (“you”), is made pursuant and subject to the provisions of Capital One’s 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). All terms used herein
that are defined in the Plan shall have the same meaning given them in the Plan unless they are otherwise defined herein. 
  
 WHEREAS, Section 4 of the Capital One Financial Corporation 1994 Stock Incentive Plan Incentive Stock Award Agreement, dated December 15, 2003, between
Capital One and you (the “Incentive Stock Agreement”) provides that in the event the stockholders of Capital One authorize and approve a stock incentive plan permitting the issuance of restricted stock units prior to March 31, 2007, then
the Incentive Stock Agreement will be cancelled and replaced by an award agreement providing for the issuance of Restricted Stock Units; 
  
 WHEREAS, at Capital One’s Annual Meeting held on April 29, 2004, Capital One’s stockholders authorized and approved the Plan; and 
  
 WHEREAS, Article 8 of the Plan provides for the award from time to time in
the discretion of the Capital One Board of Directors’ Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of Restricted Stock Units, the vesting and issuance of which may be subject to certain service, performance or other conditions as
determined by the Committee; 
  
 W I T
N E S S E T H : 
  
 1. Cancellation of Incentive Agreement. Capital One and you acknowledge that, effective as of May [    ], 2004, the Incentive Stock Agreement shall be cancelled, including all of Capital One’s and your rights
and obligations thereunder, pursuant to the terms and conditions thereof. 
  
 2. Grant of Units. Pursuant and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan, Capital One hereby grants to you a target award of 236,940 Restricted Stock Units and a maximum
award of 355,410 Restricted Stock Units (the “Units”). 

 3. Non-Transferability. Subject to the provisions of Section 4 hereof, the right to receive some
or all of the Units and the underlying Shares related thereto shall not be assignable or transferable, or otherwise alienated, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered, under any circumstances. Any purported or attempted assignment, transfer,
alienation, pledge, hypothecation or encumbrance of such rights or of the Units or the underlying Shares related thereto prior to their issuance to you shall be null and void and shall result in the immediate forfeiture of such rights or Units
(including the underlying Shares related thereto) and cancellation of this Agreement. 
  
 4. Vesting and Settlement of Units. 
  
 (a) Vesting. Except as provided in subsections 4(b) and 4(c) below and subject to Section 6 below, a number of the Units shall, to the extent not previously vested or forfeited as provided herein, vest on March
31, 2007 (the “Vesting Date”) as set forth in Appendix A hereto based upon Capital One’s fully diluted earnings per share compound growth rate for the three-year period from January 1, 2004 through December 31, 2006 (the
“Performance Period”), compared to the fully diluted earnings per share compound growth rate of the companies listed on Appendix B hereto during the Performance Period, as certified by the Committee following the end of the Performance
Period. With respect to any Units which have vested on the Vesting Date, the underlying Shares related thereto shall be issued to you, in settlement of such vested Units, on the first day of Capital One’s taxable year immediately following the
taxable year in which your employment with Capital One is terminated for any reason (the “Settlement Date”). 
  
 All Units (including your rights thereto and to the underlying Shares related thereto) that do not vest on or before the Vesting Date, as provided in this
Section 4, to the extent not previously forfeited as provided herein, shall immediately be forfeited as of such date. 
  
 (b) Effect of Termination of Employment. Except as otherwise provided in subsections 4(b)(i) or 4(b)(ii) below, upon your termination of employment
with Capital One for any reason prior to the end of the Performance Period, all Units (including your rights thereto and to the underlying Shares related thereto), to the extent not previously vested as provided herein, shall immediately be
forfeited as of the date of such termination. 
  
 (i) If your employment with Capital One terminates due to your death or Disability prior to the end of the Performance Period, then 236,940 Units will immediately vest on the date of your death or Disability, as applicable, and, subject to
Section 6 below, the underlying Shares related thereto will be issued to you, your estate, or the person or persons to whom the rights under this Agreement shall have passed by will or the laws of descent or distribution, in settlement of such
vested Units, on the Settlement Date. The remaining unvested Units (including your rights thereto and to the underlying Shares related thereto) shall immediately be forfeited as of the date of your death or Disability, as applicable; 
  
 (ii) If your employment with Capital One terminates due to
your Retirement prior to the end of the Performance Period, then the number of Units which will vest on the Vesting Date will be equal to the product of (x) the number of Units that would have vested had you remained employed until the end of the

  

 2 

 Performance Period, determined in accordance with Section 4(a) above, and (y) a fraction, the numerator
of which is the number of days from January 1, 2004 through the date of your Retirement and the denominator of which is 1095. The remaining unvested Units (including your rights thereto and to the underlying Shares related thereto) shall immediately
be forfeited as of the Vesting Date. All Units which vest pursuant to this Section 4(b)(ii) shall be settled, subject to Section 6 below, in Shares issued to you on the Settlement Date. 
  
 For purposes of this Section 4, it shall not be considered a termination of employment if you are placed by Capital One or
any Subsidiary on military or sick leave or such other type of leave of absence that the Committee in its sole discretion considers as continuing the employment relationship intact. 
  
 (c) Effect of Change of Control. If a Change of Control of Capital One occurs prior to the end of the Performance
Period, then 236,940 Units shall, to the extent not previously forfeited as provided herein, immediately vest and, subject to Section 6 below, the underlying Shares related thereto will be issued to you, in settlement of such vested Units, as soon
as reasonably practicable following the date of such Change of Control and the remaining unvested Units (including your rights thereto and to the underlying Shares related thereto) shall immediately be forfeited as of the date of such Change of
Control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event a Change of Control of Capital One occurs during the period commencing on the Vesting Date and ending on the Settlement Date, subject to Section 6 below, the Shares underlying
such vested Units shall be issued to you, in settlement of such vested Units, as soon as reasonably practicable following the date of such Change of Control. 
  
 (d) Acceleration of Settlement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Committee may accelerate the date of settlement of any Units
granted hereunder which have vested pursuant to Section 4(a) or 4(b) hereof. 
  
 5. Modification and Waiver. Except as provided in the Plan and this Agreement with respect to determinations of the Board or the Committee and subject to the Committee’s right to amend the Plan, neither
this Agreement nor any provision hereof can be changed, modified, amended, discharged, terminated or waived orally or by any course of dealing or purported course of dealing, but only by an agreement in writing signed by you and Capital One;
provided, that changes, modifications and amendments not detrimental to you may be made in writing signed only by Capital One. No such agreement shall extend to or affect any provision of this Agreement not expressly changed, modified, amended,
discharged, terminated or waived or impair any right consequent on such a provision. The waiver of or failure to enforce any breach of this Agreement shall not be deemed to be a waiver or acquiescence in any other breach thereof. 
  
 6. Tax Withholding. If you become subject to withholding under
applicable tax laws, you agree to pay Capital One the amount required to be withheld by one or more of the following methods: 
  

	 	(a)	by cash or check payment; 

  

 3 

	 	(b)	if the Units have vested and the underlying Shares related thereto have been issued to you pursuant to Section 4 hereof, by instructing the Plan administrator to sell that number of
Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld and to deliver the proceeds thereof to Capital One; or 

  

	 	(c)	by such other methods as Capital One may make available from time to time. 

  
 7. Changes in Capital Structure. In the event of changes in the capital structure of Capital One or other corporate events or transactions,
appropriate adjustments in the number of the Units and the underlying Shares related thereto issuable to you, the performance conditions set forth in Section 4(a) hereof, or both, shall be made, as provided in Article 4 of the Plan or as the
Committee in its sole discretion otherwise deems appropriate. 
  
 8. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, excluding any conflicts or choice of law rule or principle. 
  
 9. Conflicts. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of the Plan as in effect on the Date of Grant and
the provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of the Plan shall govern. All references herein to the Plan shall mean the Plan as in effect on the date hereof. 
  
 10. Bound by Plan. In consideration of the grant of the Units, you agree that you will comply with such conditions as
the Board and the Committee may impose on the Units and the underlying Shares related thereto and be bound by the terms of the Plan. 
  
 11. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon, enforceable against, and inure to the benefit of you and your legatees, distributees and
personal representatives, and Capital One and its successors and assigns. 
  
 You represent that you are familiar with the terms of the Plan and have had the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Units and the underlying
Shares related thereto. As a condition of this award and your right to receive the Units and the underlying Shares related thereto, you must sign this Agreement and return at least one copy to Capital One’s Human Resources Department. By doing
so, you confirm the accuracy of the statement set forth in the first sentence of this paragraph and evidence your acceptance of and agreement to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and the Plan.

 CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION 
 1999 Non-Employee Directors Stock Incentive Plan 
 Nonstatutory Stock Option Agreement 
  
 No. of Shares Subject to Option:
                 
  
 THIS AGREEMENT, dated                     ,
20     between CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and
                     (“Optionee”), is made pursuant and subject to the provisions of the Company’s 1999 Non-Employee Directors
Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), and all capitalized terms used herein that are defined in the Plan shall have the same meaning given them in the Plan unless they are otherwise defined herein: 
  
 W I T N E S S E
T H : 
  
 1. Grant of Option. Pursuant and
subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, this Agreement and the Election executed by Optionee (the “Election”), the Committee has granted to Optionee, effective
                    , 20     (the “Date of Grant”), the right and option to purchase from the Company
(the “Option”) all or any part of an aggregate of                         
(            ) shares of Company Stock at the purchase price per share of
                         ($            ) (the
“Option Price”), being not less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per share of the Common Stock on the Date of Grant, such Option to be exercisable as hereinafter provided. 
  
 In satisfaction of a condition of the grant of the Option, Optionee has agreed to forgo that amount of compensation from the
Company that Optionee has designated in the Election, in the form and manner designated in the Election. 
  
 The Option evidenced hereby is intended to be a nonstatutory stock option that does not receive special tax treatment under Section 422 of
the Internal Revenue Code. 
  
 2. Terms and Conditions. The
Option evidenced by this Agreement is subject to the following terms and conditions: 
  
 (a) Expiration Date. The Option shall expire on                          (ten years
from the Date of Grant), unless earlier terminated as provided for herein. 
  
 (b) Transferability. 
  
 (i) Except as provided in the following sentence, the Option shall be nontransferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and, during the lifetime of Optionee, may be exercised only by Optionee.
Notwithstanding the previous sentence, the Option shall be transferable to (1) the spouse, children, or grandchildren of Optionee (“Immediate Family Members”), (2) a trust or trusts for the exclusive benefit 

  

 
of Optionee and/or such Immediate Family Members, or (3) a partnership in which Optionee and/or such Immediate Family Members are the only partners; provided
that (w) there is no consideration for any such transfer, (x) in the event of such transfer, the Option is exercisable, during the original transferee’s lifetime, only by the transferee or by his or her guardian or legal representative, (y)
following such transfer, Optionee retains no interest or reversion in the Option (or the underlying shares upon exercise) and has no right to alter or amend the Option or revoke the transfer, and (z) subsequent transfer of the Option (excluding
transfers by will or by the laws of descent and distribution) is prohibited. Following transfer, the Option shall continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable to the Option immediately before transfer (including terms
and conditions based on the status of Optionee as a director of the Company); provided that, where appropriate, all references in this Agreement to “Optionee” shall be deemed to refer to the transferee. 
  
 (ii) Promptly upon transfer of the Option, the Optionee
shall deliver written notice of the transfer to the Company’s Human Resources Department at the Company’s Goochland, Virginia office. That written notice shall identify the transferee and the effective date of the transfer. 
  
 (iii) If the sale to the transferee of the Company Stock
issuable upon exercise of the Option is not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Company, in its sole discretion, may condition such sale upon such terms and requirements as it deems appropriate to comply with applicable law.

  
 (c) Exercise of Option. Subject to the provisions of
Section 3 below, the Option shall be exercisable only to the extent Optionee is vested in the Option and prior to the Option’s expiration. The Option shall become exercisable for one-third of the Option Shares on the first anniversary of the
Date of Grant, an additional one-third of the Option Shares on the second anniversary of the Date of Grant, and the remaining one-third of the Option Shares on the third anniversary of the Date of Grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Optionee shall
be fully vested in the Option upon (i) termination of service as a Director due to Optionee’s death or disability or (ii) a Change of Control of the Company. ( For purposes of this Agreement Change of Control shall mean: (i) the acquisition by
an individual, entity or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of 20% (or, if such shares are purchased from the
Company, 40%) or more of either (A) the then outstanding shares of common stock of the Company (the “Outstanding Company Common Stock”) or (B) the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the Company entitled to
vote generally in the election of directors (the “Company Voting Securities”), provided, however, that any acquisition by (x) the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained
by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or (y) any corporation with respect to which, immediately following such acquisition, more than 60% of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of common stock of such corporation and the combined voting
power of the then outstanding voting securities of such corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors is then beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the
beneficial owners, respectively, of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Company Voting Securities immediately prior to such acquisition in substantially the same proportion as their ownership, immediately prior to such acquisition, of the
Outstanding Company Common Stock and Company Voting Securities, as the case may be, shall not constitute a Change of Control; or (ii) individuals who constituted the Board as of January 1, 2004 (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason
to constitute at least a majority of the Board, provided that any individual becoming a director subsequent to January 1, 2004 whose appointment to fill a vacancy or to fill a new Board position or whose nomination for election by the Company’s
shareholders was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such individual
whose initial assumption of office is in connection with an actual or threatened election contest relating to the election of the Directors of the Company (as such terms are used in Rule 14a-11 of Regulation 14A promulgated under the Exchange Act);
or (iii) consummation of a reorganization, merger or consolidation (a “Business Combination”), in each case, with respect to which all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the respective beneficial owners of the
Outstanding Company Common Stock and Company Voting Securities immediately prior to such Business Combination do not in the aggregate, immediately following such Business Combination, beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 60% of,
respectively, the then outstanding shares of common stock and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, as the case may be, of the corporation resulting from such
Business Combination in substantially the same proportion as their ownership immediately prior to such Business Combination of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Company Voting Securities, as the case may be; or (iv) (A) a complete liquidation
or dissolution of the Company or (B) sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company other than to a corporation with respect to which, immediately following such sale or disposition, more than 60% of,
respectively, the then outstanding shares of common stock and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors is then beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, in the
aggregate by all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners, respectively, of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Company Voting Securities immediately prior to such sale or disposition in substantially
the same proportion as their ownership of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Company Voting Securities, as the case may be, immediately prior to such sale or disposition.) 
  
 (d) Method of Exercising and Payment for Shares. (i) The Option may be exercised by following the procedures for the
exercise of an Option as may be established from time to time by the Company or its designated agent (the “Procedures”). The Company will notify Optionee in writing of the Procedures which will specify (1) any required notification,
whether oral or written, to the Company or its designated agent; (2) the method for cash payment of the Option Price and any additional amounts to the Company or its designated agent; (3) if an Optionee elects to substitute for all or any portion of
the cash payment shares of Company Stock that an Optionee has owned for at least six months (valued at the Fair Market Value on the exercise date), the method for delivery of such shares of Company Stock to 

  

 
the Company or its designated agent; (4) if the Optionee exercises by means of a so-called “cashless exercise”, any requirements related to such
cashless exercise; and (5) any other requirements, including completion of any required tax or other forms, which must be completed prior to the exercise of the Option. The Optionee may contact the Human Resources Department at the Company’s
Goochland, Virginia office to obtain a copy of the Procedures; 
  
 (ii) The exercise date will be the date upon which all of the Procedures have been completed by the Optionee, or such later date as agreed to by the Optionee and the Company or its designated agent. 
  
 3. Termination of Service as a Director. 
  
 (a) Except as otherwise provided in subsection 3(b) below, the right of
Optionee and Optionee’s successors in interest to exercise the Option shall terminate thirty-six (36) months after the date Optionee’s ceases to serve as a Director (but not later than the expiration date of the Option period specified in
subsection 2(a) above). 
  
 (b) If Optionee dies or becomes
