Pursuant to the Merger, each issued and outstanding share of SunTrust common stock was exchanged for 1.295 shares of BB&T common stock. The closing price of BB&T common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the effective date of the Merger was $54.24. As a result of the Merger, the reporting person no longer beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, any shares of SunTrust common stock.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, each outstanding SunTrust phantom stock unit automatically converted into a BB&T phantom stock unit in respect of shares of BB&T common stock, with the underlying number of shares of BB&T common stock determined as set forth in the Merger Agreement. Each BB&T phantom stock unit is subject to the same terms and conditions (including service-based vesting terms) as applied to the corresponding SunTrust phantom stock unit immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger.

Each BB&T time-vested restricted stock unit is subject to the same terms and conditions (including vesting terms) as applied to the corresponding SunTrust time-vested restricted stock unit immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger.
