Cautionary Statement

This report may contain forward-looking statements about Fifth Third Bancorp and/or the company as combined acquired

entities within the meaning of Sections 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 175 promulgated thereunder,

and 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 3b-6 promulgated thereunder, that involve inherent

risks and uncertainties. This report may contain certain forward-looking statements with respect to the financial condition,

results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and

business of Fifth Third Bancorp and/or the combined company

including statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words or phrases such as “believes,”

“expects,”

“anticipates,”

“plans,”

“trend,”

“objective,”

“continue,”

“remain”

or similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as “will,”

“would,”

“should,”

“could,”

“might,”

“can,”

“may”

or similar expressions. There are a number of important factors

that could cause future

results to differ materially from historical performance and these forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such a

difference include, but are not limited to: (1) general economic

conditions, either national or in the states in which Fifth Third,

one or more acquired entities and/or the combined company do business, are less favorable than expected; (2) political

developments, wars or other hostilities may disrupt or increase volatility in securities markets or other economic conditions; (3)

changes in the interest rate environment reduce interest margins; (4) prepayment speeds, loan origination and sale volumes,

charge-offs and loan loss provisions; (5) our ability to maintain required capital levels and adequate sources of funding and

liquidity; (6) changes and trends in capital markets; (7) competitive pressures among depository institutions increase

significantly; (8) effects of critical accounting policies and judgments; (9) changes in accounting policies or procedures as may

be required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other

regulatory agencies; (10) legislative or regulatory changes or

actions, or significant litigation, adversely affect Fifth Third, one or more acquired entities and/or the combined company or the

businesses in which Fifth Third, one or more acquired entities and/or the combined company are engaged; (11) ability to

maintain favorable ratings from rating agencies; (12) fluctuation of Fifth Third’s stock price; (13) ability to attract and retain key

personnel; (14) ability to receive dividends from its subsidiaries; (15) potentially dilutive effect of future acquisitions on current

shareholders' ownership of Fifth Third; (16) effects of accounting or financial results of one or more acquired entity; (17)

difficulties in combining the operations of acquired entities; (18) ability to secure confidential information through the use of

computer systems and telecommunications network; and (19) the impact of reputational risk created by these developments on

such matters as business generation and retention, funding and liquidity. Additional information concerning factors that could

cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements is available in the

Bancorp’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, filed with the United States Securities and

Exchange Commission (SEC). Copies of this filing are available at no cost on the SEC’s Web site at www.sec.gov

or on Fifth

Third’s web site at www.53.com. Fifth Third undertakes no obligation to release revisions to these forward-looking statements

or reflect events or circumstances after the date of this report.
