FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
KEYCORP TO REDEEM TRUST PREFERRED SECURITIES
CLEVELAND, Aug. 2 KeyCorp (NYSE: KEY) announced today that it has submitted a redemption notice to the property trustee for each trust listed below, which will result in the redemption of the trust preferred securities identified below on the redemption date specified for each security.
These redemptions are consistent with an updated capital plan submitted to the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the Federal Reserve) on June 10, 2011, which provided for one additional capital action related to the redemption of certain trust preferred securities. On August 1, 2011, the Federal Reserve informed us that it had no objection to our updated capital plan. The redemptions will be funded with existing available cash.

Union State Capital Trust I |
9.580% Capital Securities | $ | 20,000,000 | 908470AC1 | 9/1/2011 |
The holders of trust preferred securities for Union State Capital Trust I will receive 102.874% of the principal amount.
The action we are announcing today to redeem certain trust preferred securities is part of our overall capital and liability management strategy, said Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Beth Mooney. Keys strong tier 1 common capital and the changing treatment of trust preferred securities as qualifying tier 1 capital under Dodd-Frank and the Basel III proposals make this decision appropriate at this time.
Mooney continued: All of the securities called for redemption today were callable under their existing arrangements. We will continue to evaluate other securities for redemption when appropriate.
