Such statements are not historical facts and include expressions about management’s confidence and strategies and management’s expectations about new and existing programs and products, acquisitions, relationships, opportunities, taxation, technology, market conditions and economic expectations.

Such forward-looking statements involve certain risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from such forward-looking statements. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: weakness or a decline in the economy, mainly in New Jersey, New York, Florida and Alabama, as well as an unexpected decline in commercial real estate values within our market areas; the diversion of management's time on any remaining issues related to the USAB merger integration; the inability to realize expected cost savings and synergies from the merger of USAB with Valley in the amounts or in the timeframe anticipated; the inability to retain USAB’s customers and employees; less than expected cost reductions and revenue enhancement from Valley's cost reduction plans including its earnings enhancement program called "LIFT"; higher or lower than expected income tax expense or tax rates, including increases or decreases resulting from the impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and other changes in tax laws, regulations and case law; damage verdicts or settlements or restrictions related to existing or potential litigations arising from claims of breach of fiduciary responsibility, negligence, fraud, contractual claims, environmental laws, patent or trade mark infringement, employment related claims, and other matters; the loss of or decrease in lower-cost funding sources within our deposit base may adversely impact our net interest income and net income; cyber attacks, computer viruses or other malware that may breach the security of our websites or other systems to obtain unauthorized access to confidential information, destroy data, disable or degrade service, or sabotage our systems; results of examinations by the OCC, the FRB, the CFPB and other regulatory authorities, including the possibility that any such regulatory authority may, among other things, require us to increase our allowance for credit losses, write-down assets, reimburse customers, change the way we do business, or limit or eliminate certain other banking activities; changes in accounting policies or accounting standards, including the new authoritative accounting guidance (known as the current expected credit loss (CECL) model) which may increase the required level of our allowance for credit losses after adoption on January 1, 2020; our inability or determination not to pay dividends at current levels, or at all, because of inadequate future earnings, regulatory restrictions or limitations, changes in our capital requirements or a decision to increase capital by retaining more earnings; higher than expected loan losses within one or more segments of our loan portfolio; unanticipated loan delinquencies, loss of collateral, decreased service revenues, and other potential negative effects on our business caused by severe weather or other external events; unexpected significant declines in the loan portfolio due to the lack of economic expansion, increased competition, large prepayments, changes in regulatory lending guidance or other factors; and the failure of other financial institutions with whom we have trading, clearing, counterparty and other financial relationships. A detailed discussion of factors that could affect our results is included in our SEC filings, including the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. We undertake no duty to update any forward-looking statement to conform the statement to actual results or changes in our expectations. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. 2

Branch Transformation Update  Valley is embarking on a multi-year transformation of its retail network to create a branch infrastructure that is more reflective of current trends and adaptive to future activity within our present and prospective target markets. We are striving to achieve a more relevant branch network that enhances relative share of our footprint. Our customer experience will place a greater importance on service, sales and advisory, and provide a more efficient platform for transactions.

Branch Transformation Update  We have identified 74 branches (out of 177) within our New Jersey & New York footprints that are operating at levels that we deem sub-optimal based on deposit balances and/or operating costs.  We expect to consolidate approximately 20 branches between now and the end of 1Q19.  We anticipate the first round of closures to reduce annualized operating expense by approximately $9 million (includes the estimated interest expense impact to substitute any temporary deposit attrition)  The remaining branches will undergo tailored action plans to improve profitability via new staffing models (size, training & personnel) and targeted deposit/revenue campaigns.  Should the remaining branches not reach levels of improved profitability they will be re-evaluated for consolidation along the associated timeline (refer to slide 11).
