materially from the results anticipated or projected include, but

savings, synergies and other benefits from the Taylor Capital
merger and our other merger and acquisition activities might not be
realized within the anticipated time frames or at all; (2) the
credit risks of lending activities, including changes in the level
and direction of loan delinquencies and write-offs and changes in
estimates of the adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease
losses, which could necessitate additional provisions for loan
losses, resulting both from loans we originate and loans we acquire
from other financial institutions; (3) results of examinations by
the Office of Comptroller of Currency, the Federal Reserve Board,
the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and other regulatory
authorities, including the possibility that any such regulatory
authority may, among other things, require us to increase our

competitive pressures among depository institutions; (5) interest
rate movements and their impact on customer behavior, net interest
margin and the value of our mortgage servicing rights; (6) the
possibility that our mortgage banking business may increase
volatility in our revenues and earnings and the possibility that
the profitability of our mortgage banking business could be
significantly reduced if we are unable to originate and sell
mortgage loans at profitable margins or if changes in interest
rates negatively impact the value of our mortgage servicing rights;
(7) the impact of repricing and competitors pricing initiatives on
loan and deposit products; (8) fluctuations in real estate values;
(9) the ability to adapt successfully to technological changes to
meet customers needs and developments in the market-place; (10) the
possibility that our security measures might not be sufficient to
mitigate the risk of a cyber attack or cyber theft, and that our
security measures might not protect us from systems failures or
interruptions; (11) our ability to realize the residual values of
our direct finance, leveraged, and operating leases; (12) our
ability to access cost-effective funding; (13) changes in financial
markets; (14) changes in economic conditions in general and in the
Chicago metropolitan area in particular; (15) the costs, effects
