Bliss SVP, Director Community Development KeyBank, National Association 127 Public Square Cleveland, Ohio 44114 RE: Branch relocation – East Liberty branch KeyBank, National Association, Cleveland, Ohio OCC Control No.: 2019-CE-Relocation-308559 Dear Mr. Bliss: The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) hereby approves the application you submitted for KeyBank, National Association (Bank), to relocate its East Liberty branch from 217 North Highland Avenue, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania to the Southwest corner of Penn Avenue and Negley Avenue, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. This approval is granted based on a thorough review of all information available, including the representations and commitments made in the application and by the bank’s representatives. Based on our review, the OCC determined that approval to relocate the branch is consistent with the relevant regulatory factors set forth in 12 CFR 5.30, including applicable state law, and with the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA). This letter also authorizes the bank to establish Branch No. 148109A at the above location. I. Community Reinvestment Act In evaluating this proposed transaction, the OCC carefully considered (i) the Bank’s most recent CRA performance evaluation (PE), (ii) information available to the OCC as a result of its supervisory responsibilities, (iii) written public comments, and (iv) information provided by the Bank in response to a public comment. Based on this review, the OCC has concluded that the Bank’s record of performance under the CRA is consistent with approval of this application. The CRA requires the OCC to take into account the Bank’s record of performance in helping to meet the credit needs of its communities, including low- and moderate-income (LMI) neighborhoods, when evaluating applications to establish a new domestic branch.

    KeyCorp, Department of Justice, and Federal Reserve Board Agree on First Niagara Branch Divestitures Key to Sell 18 First Niagara Locations and $1.7 Billion in Deposits to Northwest Bank CLEVELAND, Ohio –April 28, 2016 – KeyCorp (NYSE: KEY) and First Niagara Financial Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: FNFG) announced today that they have reached an agreement with Northwest Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Northwest Bancshares, Inc. (NASDAQGS: NWBI), to sell 18 branches in the Buffalo Federal Reserve banking market totaling $1.7 billion in deposits and $0.5 billion in loans. Northwest Bank’s purchase includes all 18 branches slated for divestiture under Key’s agreements with the United States Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Federal Reserve Board, which were entered into in connection with their review of KeyCorp’s pending merger with First Niagara. Key will retain its middle market, private banking, municipal and commercial real estate client relationships within this market. The divestiture transaction is subject to the completion of the merger of KeyCorp and First Niagara, which remains subject to regulatory approvals. Northwest Bank has approximately $9 billion of total assets and has a 15-year history of operations in the Buffalo market. Since its initial public offering in 1994, Northwest has completed over 37 bank transactions including 14 branch purchases. It is expected that personnel associated with the divested locations will join Northwest Bank upon completion of the divestitures. “Today’s announcement is another important milestone for the KeyCorp and First Niagara merger, which remains on-track to close in the third quarter of this year,” said Beth Mooney, Chairman and CEO of KeyCorp.
