Credit Ratings Update
Our senior unsecured ratings have been gradually improving
since 2010:
Moodys:
Ba1
Negative Outlook
S&P:
B+
Stable Outlook
Fitch:
B+
Positive Outlook
Feb, 2011:  Fitch raised our senior unsecured rating by one
notch to B+
July, 2011: S&P raised our senior unsecured rating by one notch
to B+
As the P.R. economy stabilizes and our credit metrics improve,
we should see upward pressure on the ratings

TARP Capital Accounting Overview
In 2009, we exchanged $935 million in perpetual preferred shares
we issued to the US Treasury in
2008, for perpetual trust-preferred securities (“Trups”) with the same terms and conditions
The coupon remained unchanged at 5%, stepping up to 9% in 12-2013
Under GAAP, the Trups were marked to market resulting in a gain of approximately $485.3 million
million which was taken into retained earnings in 8-2009
the discount rate assumed for the valuation was 16%
the book value of the Trups was written down to approximately $416M million
The discount is being amortized throughout a 30-year period using the level-yield method to result
in an effective cost of 16% of book value
In  2011, the interest expense booked related to the Trups was $72.5 million:
Coupon payment of $46.8 million
Discount amortization of $25.7 million
The effective cost was 16% of the average book value, or 7.8% of
the par amount of $935 million
The outstanding discount as of 12-31-2011, was approximately $466 million
