## Corporate Governance 

Fifth Third Bancorp is committed to maintaining strong corporate governance practices. As measured by RiskMetrics Group, Fifth Third’s Governance Risk Indicators (GRId) classify Audit, Board Structure, Compensation and Shareholder Rights as Low Concern, the best possible rating. 

Fifth Third’s board is controlled by a majority of independent outsiders. In May of 2010, Fifth Third appointed William Isaac to the role of chairman of 

the board. Mr. Isaac brings a wealth of experience to the board, having spent his career in the banking industry and serving as Chairman of the FDIC from 1981 to 1985. The addition of a non-executive chairman to the board of directors improves our already strong corporate governance practices and provides support to the executive leadership team.
