CIT GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES – NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include financial information related to CIT Group Inc. and its majority owned subsidiaries, including CIT Bank (collectively, “CIT” or the “Company”), and those variable interest entities (“VIEs”) where the Company is primary beneficiary. CIT is a bank holding company and provides commercial financing and leasing products and other services to small and middle market companies in a wide variety of industries.

On November 1, 2009, CIT Group Inc. (“Predecessor CIT”) and CIT Group Funding Company of Delaware LLC (“Delaware Funding” and together with Predecessor CIT, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”). As a result of the Debtors’ emergence from bankruptcy and implementation of the Modified Second Amended Prepackaged Reorganization Plan of Debtors (the “Plan”) on December 10, 2009 (the “Emergence Date”), CIT Group Inc. (“Successor CIT”) became a new reporting entity for financial reporting purposes, effective December 31, 2009 (the “Convenience Date”), with a new basis in identifiable assets and liabilities assumed, a new capital structure and no retained earnings or accumulated losses. Predecessor CIT’s Consolidated Statements of Operation for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 are not comparable to the consolidated financial statements for the respective 2010 periods and are presented separately from Successor CIT. See the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 (Form 10-K), Note 1 and Note 2 for additional Fresh Start Accounting (“FSA”) and reorganization information.

The terms “CIT” and “Company”, when used with respect to periods commencing after emergence from bankruptcy, are references to Successor CIT and when used with respect to periods prior to emergence, are references to Predecessor CIT. These references include subsidiaries of Successor CIT or Predecessor CIT, unless otherwise indicated or the context requires otherwise.

The consolidated financial statements include effects of adopting FSA upon emergence from bankruptcy, as required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). In applying FSA, the Company designated December 31, 2009 as a convenience date (the (“Convenience Date”) for recording fair value adjustments to assets, liabilities and equity. Accretion and amortization of certain FSA adjustments are included in the Statement of Operations for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2010.

These consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q, do not include all information and note disclosures required by GAAP. The financial statements in this Form 10-Q have not been audited by an independent registered public accounting firm in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (U.S.), but in the opinion of management include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of CIT’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows in accordance with GAAP. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Form 10-K.

On January 1, 2010, the Company implemented new consolidation accounting guidance related to VIEs. The new guidance eliminated the concept of qualified special purpose entities (“QSPEs”) that were previously exempt from consolidation, and introduced a new framework for determining the primary beneficiary of a VIE. The primary beneficiary of a VIE is required to consolidate the assets and liabilities of the VIE. Under the new guidance, the primary beneficiary is the party that has both (1) the power to direct the activities of an entity that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance; and (2) through its interests in the VIE, the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Consolidation eliminated the retained interest and increased Cash ($105 million), Loans ($821 million), Allowance for loan losses ($40 million), Long-term borrowings ($738 million), and Other liabilities ($17 million) as of January 1, 2010. Equity decreased by approximately $14 million as of January 1, 2010.

CIT GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES – NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Assets held in an agency or fiduciary capacity are not included in the consolidated financial statements. The Company accounts for investments in companies for which it owns a voting interest of 20 percent to 50 percent and for which it has an ability to exercise significant influence over operations and financial decisions using the equity method of accounting. These investments are included in Other Assets and the Company’s proportionate share of net income or loss is included in Other Income.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. Some of the more significant estimates include: fresh start accounting fair values; valuation of deferred tax assets; lease residual values and depreciation of operating lease equipment; and allowance for loan losses. Additionally, where applicable, policies conform to accounting and reporting guidelines prescribed by bank regulatory authorities.

On July 16, 2009, the FDIC and the Utah Department of Financial Institutions (the “UDFI”) each issued cease and desist orders to CIT Bank (together, the “Orders”). The Orders were in connection with the diminished liquidity of Predecessor CIT. CIT Bank, without admitting or denying any allegations made by the FDIC and UDFI, consented and agreed to the issuances of the Orders.

On August 12, 2009, CIT entered into a Written Agreement with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The Company continues to provide required periodic reports relating to: corporate governance, credit risk management, capital, liquidity and funds management, business trends, as appropriate, and the allowance for loan losses methodology.

Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-06,Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures(Topic 820). This update enhances disclosures about (1) different classes of assets and liabilities measured at fair value, (2) valuation techniques and inputs used, (3) transfers between Levels 1, 2, and 3, and (4) activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Except for the detailed Level 3 rollforward disclosures, this guidance was adopted and did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statement disclosures. Disclosure of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2010.

In July 2010, the Company adoptedAccounting Standards Update 2010-18, Effect of a Loan Modification When the Loan Is Part of a Pool That Is Accounted for as a Single Asset(Topic 310) which provides guidance concerning whether an individual loan that is part of a pool of loans accounted for as a single asset should be removed from the pool upon modifications that would otherwise qualify as a troubled debt restructuring. The adoption of this update did not materially impact the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

In July 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-20,Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses, which provides guidance that will require enhanced disclosures surrounding the credit characteristics of the Company’s loan portfolio. Under the new guidance, the Company will be required to disclose its accounting policies, the methods it uses to determine the components of the allowance for credit losses, and qualitative and quantitative information about the credit risk inherent in the loan portfolio, including additional information on certain types of loan modifications. For the Company, the new disclosures are effective for the 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The new disclosures on the rollforward of the allowance for credit losses and the new disclosures about troubled debt modifications are effective for the first quarter 2011 Form 10-Q. The adoption of this guidance will affect CIT’s disclosures of loans and not its financial condition or results of operations.

CIT GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES – NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 2 – PRIOR PERIOD REVISIONS

In preparing the consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2010, the Company discovered and corrected immaterial errors that impacted the 2010 first and second quarter results and had a de minimis impact on the post-emergence December 31, 2009 balance sheet. The net effect of these errors was an understatement of pre-tax income totaling $34.3 million and $22.5 million for the quarters ended June 30 and March 31, 2010, respectively, and goodwill totaling $15.7 million at December 31, 2009. While the adjustments were primarily related to the complexities of FSA and the accounting for the related activity, some other errors were identified as well. While these errors did not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a material misstatement of the Company’s previously issued consolidated financial statements, correcting these items in the third quarter would have been material to the third quarter results. Accordingly, management has revised in this filing and will revise in its 2010 Form 10-K and its subsequent quarterly filings on Form 10-Q, its previously reported December 31, 2009 balance sheet and March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2010 Consolidated Statements of Operations. All comparison to those periods and year to date 2010 reflect the revised amounts.

⁽¹⁾ As noted in the Company’s June 30, 2010 Form 10-Q, in the 2010 second quarter the Company corrected certain 2010 first quarter accretion-related errors associated with performing loans in the Corporate Finance and Transportation Finance segments. In connection with these revisions, $10.9 million of accretion income that had been incorrectly reported in the second quarter is now correctly reported in the first quarter. In addition, these revisions include corrections of certain other accretion-related errors identified in the quarter ended September 30, 2010, associated with an additional group of Corporate Finance segment loans for which accretion income had not been correctly recorded in the quarters ended March 31 and June 30, 2010.

⁽²⁾ Interest expense on long-term borrowings has been revised to correct the duplicative recognition of certain interest charges in the quarters ended March 31 and June 30, 2010.

⁽³⁾ Interest on deposits has been revised to remove amortization of capitalized broker deposit fees that should have been written off at December 31, 2009 in conjunction with the application of FSA.

⁽⁴⁾ The Provision for credit losses has been revised principally to correct the inappropriate utilization of approximately $35 million of non-accretable discount in the first quarter of 2010 to offset loan impairments that should have been charged to provision for credit losses in that quarter, as well as reverse approximately $10 million of impairment charges taken in the second quarter of 2010 that should not have been recognized after re-establishing the aforementioned non-accretable discount.

⁽⁵⁾ Other income has been revised upward in the first and second quarters of 2010 to record fees earned on a Vendor Finance liquidating portfolio that had been incorrectly deferred.

⁽⁶⁾ Other income has been increased in the first quarter of 2010, and decreased in the second quarter, to correct errors in the recording of gains on certain asset sales as well as gains associated with certain derivative financial instruments.

⁽⁷⁾ Provision for income taxes was increased as a result of recording these adjustments.

⁽¹⁾ The outstanding loan balance has been revised principally to correct the understatement of accretion in the first and second quarters of 2010.

⁽²⁾ The allowance for loan losses has been revised to correct the inappropriate utilization of non-accretable discount in the first quarter of 2010, as discussed in footnote 4 to the previous table, revised Consolidated Statement of Operations.

(3) Revisions to Goodwill correspond to a correction of an understatement of loans at fair value in FSA as well as a correction of erroneously capitalized broker deposit fees that should have been charged off at December 31, 2009. As stockholders' equity was stated at fair value at December 31, 2009, as required by FSA, the net effect of the aforementioned corrections was an adjustment to Goodwill.

These revisions to Goodwill include an additional $12 million correction as compared to the correction described in the Company’s October 26, 2010 Earnings Release included in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed that same date.

⁽⁴⁾ Other assets decreased due to the write-off of fees.

⁽⁵⁾ Accumulated earnings increased due to the adjustment to net income in the first and second quarters.

There was no impact to the Company’s actual cash balances as a result of these adjustments, and the adjustments do not change the net cash flows from operating, investing, or financing activities.

The following table contains information about impaired finance receivables and the related reserve for credit losses. The Company excludes consumer loans and small-ticket loan and lease receivables that have not been modified in a troubled debt restructuring, as well as short-term factoring receivables, from its impaired finance receivables disclosures as charge-offs are typically determined and recorded for such loans when they are more than 150-180 days past due. For purposes of this presentation, finance receivables that were identified as impaired at the Convenience Date and impaired loans identified in 2010 are presented separately below. The Company is applying the income recognition and disclosure guidance in ASC 310-30 (Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality) to loans considered impaired in FSA. The net investment of loans under the guidance of ASC 310-30 was $1,040.3 million at September 30, 2010.

The Company’s policy is to review finance receivables greater than $500,000 that are placed on non-accrual status for impairment. Consumer loans and small-ticket loan and lease receivables that have not been modified in a troubled debt restructuring, as well as short-term factoring receivables, are excluded from impaired finance receivables in the table above, but are included in reported non-accrual balances. The following table sets forth non-performing assets, which includes non-accrual loans and assets received in satisfaction of loans (repossessed assets). Non-accrual loans include loans greater than $500,000 that are individually evaluated and determined to be impaired, and loans less than $500,000 that are delinquent (generally for more than 90 days). The table excludes approximately $24 million of non-accrual loans that are classified as held for sale.

Secured Borrowings

Set forth below are borrowings and pledged assets primarily owned by consolidated special purpose entities. Creditors of these special purpose entities received ownership and/or security interests in the assets. These special purpose entities are intended to be bankruptcy remote so that such assets are not available to creditors of CIT or any affiliates of CIT. These transactions do not meet accounting requirements for sales treatment and are recorded as secured borrowings. Except as otherwise noted, pledged assets listed below are not included in the collateral available to lenders under the Amended First Lien Facility, Series A Notes or Series B Notes described below.

Secured Credit Facility and Expansion Credit Facility

In 2009, CIT entered into the Secured Credit Facility and Expansion Credit Facility (the “First Lien Facilities”). During 2010 CIT repaid $4.5 billion of the First Lien Facilities. In August 2010, CIT refinanced the remaining $3 billion by amending the First Lien Facilities. The refinanced $3 billion of first lien debt (the “Amended First Lien Facility”), which was accounted for as a modification, matures in August 2015 and carries an interest rate of LIBOR + 4.50% with a 1.75% LIBOR floor. Interest expense will include amortization of the FSA discount and costs that were capitalized such as the prepayment fees and underwriting expenses that were associated with the debt refinanced, as computed on a level yield method.

The Amended First Lien Facility is generally secured by a first lien on substantially all U.S. assets that are not otherwise pledged to secure the borrowings of special purpose entities as described above under “Secured Borrowings”, 65% of the voting and 100% of the non-voting stock of first-tier foreign subsidiaries, 100% of the stock of CIT Aerospace International (except one nominee share) and between 44% and 65% of certain other non-U.S., non-regulated subsidiaries.

In conjunction with the August refinancing, certain existing covenants were amended. The Amended First Lien Facility is subject to a collateral coverage covenant (based on CIT’s book value in accordance with GAAP) of 2.5x the outstanding loan balance, which is tested quarterly and upon the transfer, disposition or release of certain collateral. The Amended First Lien Facility also contains a number of additional covenants, some of which do not impose restrictions on the Company if CIT continues to maintain a collateral coverage ratio of 2.75x or greater.

CIT GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES – NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Series A and B Notes

The Series A Notes and Series B Notes (“Second Lien Notes”) are generally secured by second-priority security interests in substantially all the assets securing the Amended First Lien Facility. The Series B Notes are further secured by Delaware Funding’s pledge of inter-company notes issued by CIT Financial Ltd., which are the primary assets of CIT Group Funding Company of Delaware LLC (“Delaware Funding”).

The Second Lien Notes Indentures also limit the ability of the Company, Delaware Funding and the Company’s restricted subsidiaries to make certain payments or investments, incur indebtedness (including guarantees), issue preferred stock, incur liens, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, pay dividends, sell assets, and enter into transactions with affiliates.

In late October and early November 2010, CIT redeemed the $1.4 billion of the 10.25% Series B Second Lien Notes that mature from 2013 through 2016 at a redemption price of 103.5% of the aggregate principal amount redeemed. After these redemptions, approximately $0.8 billion of Series B Notes maturing in 2017 remain outstanding.

Further information on Long-term Borrowings can be found in the Company’s 2009 Form 10-K.

NOTE 5 – DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The hedge strategy currently employed by the Company relates to currency risk management of investments in foreign operations. The Company utilizes cross-currency swaps and foreign currency forward contracts to effectively convert U.S. dollar denominated debt to a foreign currency. These transactions are classified as either foreign currency net investment hedges, or foreign currency cash flow hedges, with resulting gains and losses reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income, a separate component of equity. For hedges of foreign currency net investment positions the “forward” method is applied whereby effectiveness is assessed and measured based on the amounts and currencies of the individual hedged net investments versus the notional amounts and underlying currencies of the derivative contract. For those hedging relationships where the critical terms of the entire debt instrument and the derivative are identical, and the credit-worthiness of the counterparty to the hedging instrument remains sound, there is an expectation of no hedge ineffectiveness so long as those conditions continue to be met. The net interest differential is recognized on an accrual basis as an adjustment to other income or as interest expense to correspond with the hedged position.

See the Company’s Form 10-K Note 1 for a further description of its derivative transaction policies.

Due to the reorganization (see Note 1) none of the Company’s derivatives entered into prior to December 31, 2009 qualify for hedge accounting. The Company continues to reassess hedge requirements and is reestablishing counterparty relationships to facilitate hedging where economically appropriate. New derivative instruments are cash collateralized.

A financing facility with Goldman Sachs International (GSI) is structured as a total return swap (TRS), under which amounts available for advances are accounted for as a derivative. Estimated fair value of the derivative is based on a hypothetical transfer value, considering current market conditions and other factors. At September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the estimated fair value was not significant.

Assumptions used in valuing financial instruments as of September 30, 2010 are the same as disclosed in Note 12 of Form 10-K.

The net carrying value of lease finance receivables not subject to fair value disclosure totaled $5.2 billion at September 30, 2010.

NOTE 7 – INCOME TAXES

CIT’s tax provision of $64.2 million for the quarter and $187.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, equated to 32.9% and 30.9% effective tax rates, respectively, compared with 3.1% and 0.4% for the respective 2009 periods. The effective tax rate is primarily reflective of expenses recognized as income from certain international operations and valuation allowances recorded against U.S. losses.

Included in the third quarter and year to date 2010 tax provisions are $7.7 million and $31.2 million of tax expense related primarily to changes in liabilities for uncertain tax positions and valuation allowances against international deferred tax assets recorded in the previous quarters of 2010. The Company anticipates that it is reasonably possible that the total unrecognized tax benefits will decrease due to the settlement of audits and the expiration of statutes of limitation prior to September 30, 2011 in the range of $10-25 million.

CIT GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES – NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As of December 31, 2009, we had federal net operating losses (NOL’s) of $7.2 billion prior to cancellation of indebtedness income. As a result of the Company’s emergence from bankruptcy, federal NOL carry forwards were reduced due to cancellation of indebtedness income to approximately $2.6 billion, which will expire from 2027 through 2029. The Company has not finalized its assessment of the tax effects of bankruptcy emergence, and estimates are subject to revision. Based on the disclosures made with the 2009 consolidated federal income tax return, the Company could have significant future benefits, which have not been recorded in the financial statements and would represent an uncertain tax position.

CIT’s reorganization in 2009 constituted an ownership change under Section 382 of the Code, which places an annual dollar limit on the use of NOL carry forwards. There are two relief provisions for limitations on NOL usage in Chapter 11 bankruptcy. Under one relief provision, Sec. 382(l)(5), the Company would not have had any limitation on our use of NOL carry forwards, but the amount of the NOL would have been calculated without taking into account deductions for certain interest expense with respect to notes that were exchanged for equity, effectively reducing the Company’s NOL by more than $1 billion. In addition, if the Company had undergone an ownership change within two years of the reorganization, our remaining NOL carry forwards, if any, would have been entirely eliminated. To reduce this risk, the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation had been amended to include restrictions on trading of the Company’s Common Stock. Under the second relief provision, Sec. 382(l)(6), the amount of NOL the Company may use annually is limited to the product of a prescribed rate of return applied against the value of equity immediately after any ownership change. Based on an equity value determined by the Company’s opening stock price on December 10, 2009, the Company estimates its NOL usage would be limited to $230 million per annum. However, under Sec. 382(l)(6), there is no reduction in the amount of the NOL for certain interest expense and the requirement to eliminate unused NOL carry forwards upon a change of ownership within two years of the reorganization does not apply.

With the filing of the 2009 consolidated federal tax return, CIT elected to apply IRC Sec. 382(l)(6) to the net operating losses and other tax assets that the Company had prior to its emergence from bankruptcy on December 10, 2009. In light of the Company’s election to apply Sec. 382(l)(6), the restrictions on trading of the Company’s Common Stock included in its Certificate of Incorporation no longer have any force or effect. The election to apply Sec. 382(l)(6) was made to preserve the greatest amount of tax attributes.

Excluding FSA adjustments, which are not included in the calculation of U.S. taxable income, third quarter 2010 U.S. results was a pre-tax loss of approximately $1.1 billion ($ 2.1 billion year to date), which will increase, net of book / tax differences, the Company’s total U.S. NOL carry forwards. Net operating losses arising post emergence are not subject to Section 382 limitations.

NOTE 8 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Total comprehensive income was $142.2 million for the quarter and $419.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, versus comprehensive losses of $1.0 billion and $2.9 billion before preferred stock dividends in the comparable periods in the prior year. The following table details the components of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss, net of tax:

NOTE 9 – REGULATORY CAPITAL

The Company and CIT Bank are each subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”) and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). See Form 10-K for details on requirements.

21

CIT GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES – NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require that the Company and CIT Bank each maintain minimum amounts and ratios of Total and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier 1 capital to average assets, subject to any agreement with regulators to maintain higher capital levels. In connection with becoming a bank holding company in December 2008, the Company committed to a minimum Total Risk Based Capital Ratio of 13%. In connection with converting to a Utah state bank in December 2008, CIT Bank committed to maintaining for three years a Tier 1 Leverage Ratio of at least 15%.

The calculation of the Company’s regulatory capital ratios are subject to review and consultation with the Federal Reserve Bank, which may result in refinements to amounts reported at September 30, 2010.

Financing Commitments

Financing commitments, referred to as loan commitments, or lines of credit, are agreements to lend to customers, subject to the customers’ compliance with contractual obligations. In addition to the amounts in the preceding table, if customers are in compliance with contractual obligations, CIT has committed to fund an additional $1.1 billion as of September 30, 2010. As these commitments are not typically fully drawn, may expire unused, be reduced or cancelled at the customer’s request and require the customer to be in compliance with certain conditions, total commitment amounts do not necessarily reflect actual future cash flow requirements.

At September 30, 2010, substantially all financing commitments were senior facilities, with approximately 46% secured by equipment or other assets and the remainder comprised of unsecured facilities relying upon cash-flow or enterprise value. The vast majority of these commitments are syndicated transactions. CIT is lead agent in 36% of the facilities. Most of our undrawn and available financing commitments are in Corporate Finance with an average facility balance of $4.2 million. The top ten undrawn commitments totaled $412 million.

The table above excludes unused cancelable lines of credit to customers in connection with select third-party vendor programs, which may be used solely to finance additional product purchases. These uncommitted lines of credit can be reduced or canceled by CIT at any time without notice. Management’s experience indicates that customers related to vendor programs typically exercise their line of credit only when they need to purchase new products from a vendor and do not seek to exercise their entire available line of credit at any point in time.

Letters of Credit

In the normal course of meeting the needs of clients, CIT sometimes enters into agreements to provide financing and letters of credit. Standby letters of credit obligate the issuer of the letter of credit to pay the beneficiary if a client on whose behalf the letter of credit was issued does not meet its obligation. These financial instruments generate fees and involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of amounts recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. To minimize potential credit risk, CIT generally requires collateral and in some cases additional forms of credit support from the client.

Deferred Purchase Agreements

A Deferred Purchase Agreement (“DPA” or “DPAs”) is provided in conjunction with factoring, whereby CIT provides a client with credit protection for trade receivables without purchasing the receivables. The trade terms are generally sixty days or less. If the client’s customer is unable to pay an undisputed receivable solely as the result of credit risk, then CIT purchases the receivable from the client. The outstanding amount of DPAs is the maximum potential exposure that CIT would be required to pay under all DPAs. This maximum amount would only occur if all receivables subject to DPAs default in the manner described above, thereby requiring CIT to purchase all such receivables from the DPA clients.

The maximum potential exposure amount has increased primarily as the result of the increased seasonal volume of receivables submitted to CIT from clients that have been in DPAs for some time and is generally not the result of CIT’s entering into new DPAs with new clients or existing factoring clients. The methodology used to determine the liability recorded for the DPAs is similar to the methodology used to determine the reserve for credit losses associated with the finance receivables, which reflects embedded losses based on various factors, including expected losses reflecting our internal customer and facility credit ratings. CIT had a liability recorded in Other Liabilities related to the DPAs that totaled $5.0 million and $7.8 million at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

Purchase and Funding Commitments

CIT’s firm purchase commitments relate predominantly to purchases of commercial aircraft and rail equipment. Commitments to purchase new commercial aircraft are with Airbus Industries and The Boeing Company. Aerospace equipment purchases are contracted for specific models, using baseline aircraft specification at fixed prices, which reflect discounts from fair market purchase prices prevailing at the time of commitment. The delivery price of an aircraft may change depending on final specifications. Equipment purchases are recorded at delivery date. Commitment amounts in the preceding table are based on contracted purchase prices less pre-delivery payments to date and exclude buyer furnished equipment selected by the lessee. Pursuant to existing contractual commitments, 77 aircraft remain to be purchased. Lease commitments are in place for the 16 aircraft to be delivered over the next twelve months. Commitments exclude unexercised options to purchase aircraft. Aircraft deliveries are scheduled periodically through 2018. Other manufacturing purchase commitments relate to rail equipment; there were no rail purchase commitments at September 30, 2010.

NOTE 11 – CONTINGENCIES

In accordance with ASC 450 (formerly SFAS 5), the Company establishes accruals for litigation and regulatory matters when those matters present loss contingencies that both are probable and can be reasonably estimated. Once established, accruals are adjusted from time to time, as appropriate, in light of additional information. In view of the inherent unpredictability of litigation and regulatory matters, particularly where the damages sought are substantial or indeterminate, the investigations or proceedings are in the early stages, or the matters involve novel legal theories or a large number of parties, the Company does not believe that an aggregate range of reasonably possible losses (defined by the relevant accounting literature to include all potential losses other than those deemed “remote”) can be determined for asserted and probable unasserted claims as of September 30, 2010. The Company cannot state with certainty the timing or ultimate resolution of litigation and regulatory matters.

Subject to the foregoing, it is the opinion of the Company’s management, based on current knowledge, after consultation with counsel, and after taking into account available insurance coverage and its current accruals, that the eventual outcome of such matters would not be likely to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition of the Company. Nonetheless, given the substantial or indeterminate amounts sought in certain of these matters, and the inherent unpredictability of such matters, an adverse outcome in certain of these matters could, from time to time, have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or cash flows in particular quarterly or annual periods.

ITEM 2.	—	Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
		and
ITEM 3.	—	Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

OVERVIEW

CIT Group Inc. is a bank holding company that provides financing and leasing capital principally for small businesses and middle market companies worldwide. We serve a wide variety of industries and offer vendor, equipment, commercial and structured financing products, as well as factoring and management advisory services. CIT is the parent of CIT Bank, a state-chartered bank in Utah. We operate primarily in North America, with locations in Europe, Latin America and Asia. CIT, which became a bank holding company (“BHC”) in 2008, has been providing financial solutions to its clients since its formation in 1908.

On November 1, 2009, CIT Group Inc. and CIT Group Funding Company of Delaware LLC filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. Both companies emerged on December 10, 2009 after cancelling the preferred and common stock of CIT Group Inc. and discharging their obligations to holders of certain senior debt, junior subordinated debt and equity units in exchange for issuing new senior notes (Series A and Series B) and new common stock of CIT Group Inc. The terms “CIT” and “Company”, when used with respect to periods commencing after emergence from bankruptcy, are references to Successor CIT and when used with respect to periods prior to emergence, are references to Predecessor CIT. These references include subsidiaries of Successor CIT or Predecessor CIT, unless otherwise indicated or the context requires otherwise. Financial information about Successor CIT reflects the impact of fresh start accounting (“FSA”) unless otherwise indicated.

Additional information regarding the Company, including a description of its 2009 restructuring and its stated 2010 priorities and performance expectations, can be found in Item 7 and Item 7A Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

In the following discussion, we use financial terms that are relevant to our business. You can find a glossary of these terms in Item 1. Business Overview in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2010, the Company discovered and corrected immaterial errors that impacted the 2010 first and second quarter results and had a de minimis impact on the post-emergence December 31, 2009 balance sheet. The net effect of these errors was an understatement of pre-tax income totaling $34.3 million and $22.5 million for the quarters ended June 30 and March 31, 2010, respectively, and goodwill totaling $15.7 million at December 31, 2009. While the adjustments were primarily related to the complexities of FSA and the accounting for the related activity, some other errors were identified as well. While these errors did not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a material misstatement of the Company's December 31, 2009 balance sheet or the consolidated financial statements for the first or second quarters, correcting these items in the third quarter would have been material to the third quarter results. Accordingly, management has revised in this filing and will revise in its 2010 Form 10-K and its subsequent quarterly filings on Form 10-Q, its previously reported December 31, 2009 balance sheet and March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2010 consolidated financial statements. All comparisons to those periods and year to date 2010 reflect the revised amounts.

The Company has revised its goodwill adjustment in the December 31, 2009 Consolidated Balance Sheet from the amount released in the Company’s October 26, 2010 Earnings Release and Current Report on Form 8-K filing. The impact of this correction was a $12 million increase in goodwill and decrease in loans. There was no impact on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW

During the quarter, we continued to execute on the strategic priorities outlined earlier in the year while providing financing to small businesses and middle market companies. We substantially completed the build out of our senior corporate leadership team and are in the midst of our 2011 and longer-term strategic planning processes.

We have made significant progress paying down high cost debt and re-accessing the capital markets for cost-efficient financing. Through September 30, 2010, we have paid down $4.5 billion of the $7.5 billion of high cost first lien debt we had at emergence and refinanced the remaining $3.0 billion at a significantly reduced cost and extended the maturity. In October and November 2010, we redeemed the $1.4 billion of second lien 10.25% Series B notes maturing in 2013 through 2016. We raised over $2.7 billion of new secured debt in 2010 across a variety of asset classes, including trade and vendor receivables, aircraft and other leased equipment. These bank and capital market financings have all been at attractive rates, with costs averaging approximately 4% including amortization of related fees.

We continue to make progress optimizing our asset portfolio. We have sold over $4.5 billion (pre-FSA) of non-strategic assets year-to-date including operations in Australia, asset-based loans in Canada, a liquidating Vendor Finance consumer portfolio, and student loans. In aggregate, these sales have occurred at prices above our FSA-adjusted carrying values and provided liquidity for the aforementioned debt repayments.

We continue to work on the issues cited in our Written Agreement with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Much of these efforts focus on enhancing our overall risk and credit management policies, procedures and practices. While we remain focused on expenses and driving operating efficiencies, we are equally committed to further investing in the risk management and control functions.

Our year-to-date financial results reflect these accomplishments. The balance sheet contracted, reflecting our pro-active efforts to optimize the portfolio and refinance our debt. We increased capital, with Tier One and Total Capital Ratios improved to 18.7% and 19.6%, respectively, at September 30, 2010, up from 17.5% and 18.2% at June 30, 2010. We also built loan loss reserves and had cash in excess of $11 billion at quarter end. We reported net income of $418 million for the first three quarters of 2010, due in large part to greater than expected FSA accretion mostly stemming from accelerated asset prepayments. Importantly, our new business initiatives are taking hold with new lending commitments and funded volumes increasing sequentially each quarter.

Management’s discussion and analysis focuses primarily on sequential trends as prior year comparisons to Predecessor CIT lack relevance given the impact of FSA. Comparisons to the prior year are summarized in Discussion of Results in Comparison to 2009.

Selected financial information for the first three quarters of 2010 is presented in the table below:

	September 30, 2010	June 30, 2010	March 31, 2010
Net income (in millions)	$131.5	$171.4	$115.4
Diluted earnings per common share	$  0.66	$   0.85	$  0.58
Book value per common share	$44.09	$43.34	$ 42.70
Tangible book value per common share	$42.14	$41.23	$ 40.42

In the third quarter, net income decreased sequentially as lower interest expense, provision for credit losses, and operating expenses were offset by a decline in interest income and fewer recoveries on assets charged-off prior to 2010. In aggregate, pre-tax benefits from FSA-related items of $266 million were down approximately $150 million from the second quarter, primarily due to lower asset levels, slower customer prepayments, and the repayment of high cost debt. The earnings contributed to an increase in book value per common share and tangible book value per common share.

38

Net finance revenue¹ (which includes operating lease rentals and depreciation) decreased $110 million from the second quarter as the revenue impact of a $2.7 billion reduction in average earning assets more than offset the interest savings from reducing high-cost debt. As a percentage of average earning assets, net finance revenue in the third quarter was 3.28%, down from 4.12% in the second quarter, and included a 2.62% benefit from FSA. Excluding FSA and the effect of prepayment penalties on high-cost debt in both quarters, margin was 0.92%, up 23 basis points from the second quarter, as the reduction in funding costs was partially offset by the lower asset yields that resulted from a change in the composition of interest-earning assets and lower yield-related fees. Our net finance revenue continues to be adversely impacted by the high level of debt cost and non-accrual loans.

Other income (excluding operating lease rentals) decreased from the second quarter primarily due to lower recoveries on receivables charged-off prior to the adoption of FSA $52 million in the third quarter, down from $113 million in the second quarter. Results also reflect slightly higher factoring commissions on seasonal volume build.

We continued to reduce operating expenses to better correspond to the lower asset base. Operating expenses decreased from the second quarter reflecting lower employee costs. Headcount declined 5% from June 30, 2010 to approximately 3,800. We recorded $6 million of restructuring charges in the third quarter for facility consolidation and severance costs and expect further restructuring charges of approximately $40 million in the fourth quarter relating to exiting office space.

We continued to increase funding to small and middle-market customers as new business volume was sequentially higher each quarter in 2010. CIT Bank continues to actively originate new loans, as approximately 35% of the total U.S. funded volume was underwritten by CIT Bank, up from almost 15% in the second quarter. During the third quarter, the Bank originated one aerospace loan secured by aircraft. In the fourth quarter, the Bank will begin to originate U.S. receivables for the Lenovo program of Vendor Finance.

Portfolio optimization continued; our finance and leasing asset portfolio was reduced by almost 5% during the quarter reflecting strategic sales and net portfolio collections. We sold $1.5 billion (before FSA discounts) of non-core assets, which included a $0.6 billion liquidating consumer portfolio in Vendor Finance, $0.6 billion in Corporate Finance, $0.2 billion of other Vendor assets and approximately $100 million of Transportation equipment.

Assets held for sale at September 30, 2010 include the private student loan portfolio, a pool of government-guaranteed student loans and certain energy-related Corporate Finance assets. In October, we signed agreements to sell the private student loan portfolio of approximately $143 million (post-FSA) and a $320 million (post-FSA) energy asset.

Total cash rose to $11.2 billion at September 30, 2010, consisting of $6.5 billion at the bank holding company (“BHC”), $1.6 billion at CIT Bank, $1.5 billion at operating subsidiaries, and $1.6 billion in restricted cash. There are certain limitations on the use of CIT Bank cash, such as funding transactions originated only at the Bank. Restricted cash consists of $0.8 billion for securitizations, $0.6 billion held in cash sweep accounts and $0.2 billion of cash collateral securing letters of credit and other restricted balances.

Proceeds from asset sales and net portfolio collections enabled the paydown of over $2.5 billion of debt during the quarter, including $1.5 billion of high-cost first lien debt. We have repaid a total of $4.5 billion of first lien debt in 2010 and refinanced the remaining $3 billion at a lower cost and a later maturity date. In October and November 2010, we redeemed the $1.4 billion of 10.25% Series B Notes that mature from 2013 through 2016 using cash at the BHC.

We are developing access to more cost-efficient funding sources to support lending to our small business and middle market customers. During the 2010 third quarter we funded several aircraft through the facility we have, which is guaranteed by the European Export Credit Agency (“ECA”). This transaction, when combined with first half financings, aggregates to over $2.7 billion of total new fundings.

Credit trends showed signs of stabilization, as the amount of net charge-offs and non-accrual loans each decreased modestly from the second quarter. Though down in amount, the corresponding ratios as a percentage of finance receivables increased from the prior quarter due to continued portfolio contraction. The reduction in non-accrual loans was driven largely by improvement in Corporate Finance, which was partially offset by an increase in Trade Finance. These credit metrics, which are after the application of FSA, include asset marks and other FSA-related items. Reported net charge-offs of $101 million for the third quarter, down from $106 million in the second quarter, do not reflect recoveries on pre-FSA charge-offs recorded in other income, which were $52 million in the third quarter and $113 million in the second quarter.

Management also evaluates credit performance using credit metrics that exclude the impact of FSA. On this basis, gross charge-offs were $233 million, down $19 million from the second quarter, while non-accrual loans of $2.6 billion decreased $447 million from the second quarter, including a decline of $195 million due to student loans that were reclassified to held for sale. New inflows into non-accrual loans decreased significantly on a pre-FSA basis from the preceding two quarters.

The allowance for loan losses increased to $397 million from $328 million at June 30, 2010 reflecting increases to specific reserves on impaired loans and to non-specific reserves. Although credit metrics showed signs of stabilization in the third quarter, we built reserves for incremental deterioration beyond the FSA discount on pre-emergence loans. The provision for credit losses decreased from the second quarter, as the build in non-specific reserves was partially offset by the reversal of reserves related to the liquidating Vendor Finance consumer portfolio that was sold.

Vendor Finance, Transportation Finance and Trade Finance results improved from the second quarter, while Corporate Finance and Consumer results declined.

• Corporate Finance new business activity continued to improve with increases in both committed and funded loan volume. Funded loan volume increased 29% from the second quarter, which reflected a more than doubling of volume underwritten at CIT Bank. We were awarded agency roles and continue to build our pipeline for new deals. Earnings declined sequentially, primarily due to lower FSA accretion benefits on slower portfolio prepayments, reduced gains on asset sales, and fewer recoveries on loans charged-off prior to the adoption of FSA. Operating expenses improved from the prior quarter as headcount declined 6%. Financing and leasing assets declined by $711 million from June 30, 2010 as new volume was more than offset by asset sales and collections.

• Transportation Finance continued to perform well, as our commercial air fleet remains effectively fully utilized and our rail fleet utilization improved to 94% from 93%. During the third quarter, six new aircraft valued at $0.2 billion were delivered and placed with carriers. Four of eight aircraft leased to a bankrupt foreign-based airline were returned, 3 of which were redeployed, and an agreement has been signed for return of the remaining four aircraft. Lease commitments are in place for all 16 aircraft to be delivered over the next twelve months. Rail revenue increased as utilization improved on modest increases in activity across most major car types, and rents improved on usage-based contracts. Earnings rose slightly from the second quarter, as the benefits of higher gains on asset sales and lower operating expenses were largely offset by a higher provision for credit losses and the impact of FSA that dampened net operating lease rental income.

• Trade Finance results reflect the benefit of the financing facility that was established at the end of the second quarter and higher commissions. Third quarter factored volume increased to $7 billion, from $6.3 billion in the second quarter, reflecting normal seasonal trends. Factoring commissions improved modestly, as the increased volume was slightly offset by a modest reduction in rates charged.

• Vendor Finance earnings improved, reflecting the benefits of asset sales as well as lower credit and operating costs. Portfolio yields remained consistent and volume increased despite the impact of the sale of the Australia and New Zealand business at the end of the second quarter. We funded $542 million of new business volume in the quarter, reflecting increases across many programs and regions. We also expanded Lenovo Financial Services to Western Europe. Total financing and leasing assets declined by approximately $1 billion, reflecting asset sales and collection activity. During the quarter we sold over $800 million of assets, including the liquidating consumer portfolio, the sale of which reduced credit loss reserve needs and lowered the current quarter provision for credit losses.

40

• Consumer Finance results were negatively impacted by the transfer to assets held for sale of our private student loan portfolio and a pool of government-guaranteed loans, sales of which are anticipated to close during the fourth quarter. This transfer of $400 million of loans ($895 million pre-FSA) resulted in a $195 million decline of the pre-FSA non-accrual loans and a corresponding reduction in FSA discount of $486 million. We continue to manage the remaining $8.4 billion liquidating portfolio of government-guaranteed student loans.

Business trends are discussed further in “Results by Business Segment”.

Discussion of Results in Comparison to 2009

The following discussion highlights certain year-over-year results. However, FSA adjustments reflected in 2010 impact the usefulness and comparability of year-over-year comparisons.

Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2010, of $131.5 million, improved from the prior year loss of $1.1 billion, primarily due to increased other revenue and a lower provision for credit losses, as the prior year results included $701.8 million provision for credit losses and a charge of $285 million related to the change in fair value of a derivative that was subsequently terminated in October 2009. In contrast, 2010 results included $129 million in asset sale gains and $52 million in recoveries on pre-emergence charge-offs reported in other revenue. The 2010 provision for credit losses declined $537 million from the prior year, largely due to FSA discount reducing reported charge-offs in the current year. The current period results also benefitted from $266 million in net accretion of FSA adjustments as discussed previously. Net finance revenue margins (including net operating lease income) prior to FSA and excluding current period prepayment charges on debt repayments were 0.92% versus 0.35% in 2009, reflecting some benefit from the repayment of the high cost debt issued in the reorganization.

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, of $418.3 million, improved from the prior year loss of $3.2 billion, reflecting the same trends and factors that drove the third quarter comparison. In addition, 2009 results included goodwill and intangible assets impairment charges of $692 million. The provision for credit losses in 2010 was $1.2 billion below 2009. In contrast to the third quarter trend, net finance margin was down, as 2010 net finance revenue margins prior to FSA and excluding current period prepayment charges were 0.76% versus 0.86% in the prior year.

FRESH START ACCOUNTING

Upon emergence from bankruptcy, CIT adopted FSA. As a result, assets, liabilities and equity were reflected in our financial statements at fair value at December 31, 2009. FSA adjustments are reflected in 2010 and December 31, 2009 ending balances, while accretion and amortization of certain FSA adjustments are reflected in operating results for 2010. Because the FSA accretion and amortization adjustments are reflected in 2010 and not 2009, year over year comparisons are not on the same basis, therefore comparisons throughout this document are primarily on a sequential basis.

The following table presents FSA adjustments by balance sheet caption:

In addition to the FSA accretion on loans’ recorded in interest income ($332 million in the third quarter, $1.2 billion year to date), the accretable balance declined as a result of asset sales and transfers to held for sale. The decline in non-accretable balance in the third quarter is primarily due to loans transferred to available for sale; the decrease also reflects charge-offs, prepayments, asset sales and transfer of loan non-accretable discount to accretable discount. The following table summarizes the impact of accretion and amortization of fresh start accounting adjustments on the Consolidated Statement of Operations:

Due to market conditions, there has been a high level of loan prepayments, especially during the first half of 2010, resulting in higher accretion of interest income than was anticipated. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, the accretion income related to prepayments of loans was $101.5 million and $387.0 million, respectively, primarily related to Corporate Finance, and was included in interest income.

Net finance revenue decreased $110 million from the second quarter as the revenue impact of a $2.7 billion contraction in average earning assets more than offset the interest savings from reducing high cost debt. Although down sequentially, high debt costs remain a contributing factor in the low margin rate. During 2010, we prepaid approximately $4.5 billion of our high cost first lien debt and refinanced the remaining $3 billion at a lower cost and with a later maturity date. In addition, in October and November 2010 we redeemed $1.4 billion of the $2.1 billion 10.25% Series B Second Lien Notes, representing those that mature from 2013 through 2016.

Reported net finance revenue was down 84 basis points from the second quarter as the funding cost savings were more than offset by a 111 basis point drop in asset yields. Asset yield declines were driven by a 73 basis points reduction due to lower accretion, with the balance reflecting lower yield-related fees and product shift as we have proportionately fewer vendor finance assets and higher yielding cash flow loans. Partially offsetting the decline in asset yield was a 27 basis point improvement in our average funding cost largely due to the first lien pay-down and refinancing.

As detailed in the following table, net finance revenue as a percentage of AEA for the 2010 periods includes significant favorable impact from net accretion and lower depreciation as a result of FSA.

Exclusive of FSA benefits and prepayment fees on the first lien debt, margin increased from the second quarter largely reflecting the benefit from the first lien pay-down. Prepayment fees were $29 million this quarter, down from $45 million in the second quarter on lower debt prepayments.

Net operating lease revenue included an FSA benefit of $37 million in the current quarter ($117 million year-to-date) as lower depreciation helped offset reduced rental income on operating leases. Before FSA adjustments, net operating lease revenue increased slightly. Net operating lease revenue is primarily generated from aircraft and rail transportation portfolios. Utilization remained strong in aerospace and all of the new aircraft scheduled for delivery over the next twelve months from our order book are placed on lease. Rail utilization rates improved from last quarter to 94% on modest increases in activity across most major car types, and rents improved on usage-based contracts. Market rents are improving modestly but renewal rates remain below expiring rates. See “Concentrations –Operating Leases”.

CREDIT METRICS

Management analyzes credit trends both before and after FSA in order to provide comparability with our longer-term credit trends (which included pre-emergence / historical accounting) and credit trends experienced by other market participants.

Our credit metrics showed signs of stabilization in the third quarter, as the amount of net charge-offs and non-accrual loans each decreased modestly from the second quarter. Though down in amount, the corresponding ratios as a percentage of finance receivables increased from the prior quarter due to continued portfolio contraction. The allowance for loan losses increased from June 30, 2010, as we established additional specific reserves on impaired loans, and additional non-specific reserves, which were partially offset by the reversal of reserves related to a liquidating Vendor Finance consumer portfolio that was sold during the third quarter.

Allowance for Loan Losses and Provision for Credit Losses

As a result of adopting FSA, the allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2009 was eliminated and effectively recorded as discounts on loans as part of the fair value of finance receivables. A portion of the discount attributable to embedded credit losses is recorded as non-accretable discount and is utilized as such losses occur, primarily on impaired, non-accrual loans. Any incremental deterioration of loans in this group will result in incremental provisions or charge-offs. Improvements or increases in forecasted cash flows in excess of the non-accretable discount will reduce any allowance on the loan established after emergence from bankruptcy. Once such allowance (if any) has been reduced and the account is returned to accruing status, all of the non-accretable discount will be reclassified to accretable discount and will be recorded as finance income over the remaining life of the account. Recoveries on pre-emergence (2009 and prior) charge-offs are reflected in other income, and totaled $52 million and $209 million for the third quarter and nine months.

For performing pre-emergence loans, an allowance for loan losses is established to the extent the net carrying value (after FSA discount) is not deemed to be recoverable.

At September 30, 2010, the $397 million allowance for loan losses reflects provisions for the first nine months of 2010 of $636 million less post FSA net charge-offs of $283 million and also includes $23 million remaining in reserves for securitized loans brought on-balance sheet in conjunction with the new accounting pronouncement related to consolidation of VIEs adopted on January 1, 2010. For the third quarter, the allowance for loan losses increased $69 million, as the provision for credit losses exceeded net charge-offs in excess of FSA discount. The provision declined from the prior two quarters due to the reversal of Vendor Finance liquidating consumer portfolio reserves. The allowance for loan losses was 1.48% of finance receivables at September 30, 2010, up from 1.13% at the end of the prior quarter.

The following table summarizes the components of the provision and allowance recorded in 2010:

The decline in other non-specific reserves reflects the reversal of reserves following the sale of the liquidating Vendor Finance consumer portfolio.

The allowance for loan losses is intended to provide for losses inherent in the portfolio based on estimates of the ultimate outcome of collection efforts, realization of collateral values, and other pertinent factors such as estimation risk related to performance in prospective periods. We may make adjustments to the allowance depending on general economic conditions and specific industry weakness or trends in our portfolio credit metrics, including non-accrual loans and charge-off levels and realization rates on collateral.

46

Our allowance for loan losses includes: (1) specific reserves for impaired loans, (2) non-specific reserves for estimated losses inherent in non-impaired loans based on historic loss experience and our estimates of projected loss levels and (3) a qualitative adjustment to the reserve for economic risks, industry and geographic concentrations and other factors. Our policy is to recognize losses through charge-offs when there is high likelihood of loss after considering the borrower’s financial condition and underlying collateral and guarantees and the finalization of collection activities.

The following table presents detail on our allowance for loan losses including charge-offs and recoveries:

(2)	Recoveries for the three months ended September 30, June 30, and March 31, 2010, respectively do not include $51.8 million, $113.1 million and $44.0 million and for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 do not include $208.9 million of recoveries on accounts that were charged-off pre-FSA, which are included in Other Income.

In addition to the reserves shown above, the non-accretable discount established in FSA is available to offset future contractual losses on individual loans. Management analyzes the amount of coverage on a pre-FSA basis by combining the non-accretable discount balance and the allowance for loan losses. A total of $980 million, comprised of remaining non-accretable discount of $583 million and the allowance for loan losses of $397 million, is available to cover losses. On this basis, total coverage represented 3.35% of pre-FSA finance receivables, down from 4.64% at the end of the prior quarter. The decline from last quarter reflects the utilization of approximately $400 million in non-accretable discount related to assets held for sale in conjunction with the anticipated sale of the private student loan portfolio. For the commercial portfolio, total reserves on this basis were 4.72% of pre-FSA receivables, down from 4.80% at June 30, 2010.

The increase from the prior quarter in Vendor Finance gross charge-offs after FSA was driven principally by smaller balance loans where the FSA discounts were established on a portfolio basis. Vendor Finance charge-off trends also reflected acceleration of charge-offs at earlier delinquency stages (from 180 days to 150 days) in selected portfolios. We continue to refine the timing of recognition of charge-offs, however such refinements are already considered in the allowance for loan losses. As mentioned previously, both the pre- and post-FSA 2010 amounts exclude recoveries on pre-emergence charge-offs which are reported in Other Income.

Non-accrual loans, both including and excluding FSA discounts, were down from the second quarter, as reductions in Corporate Finance and Vendor Finance were offset by increases in Trade Finance and Transportation Finance. The Transportation Finance increase was due to the addition of one secured loan to a commercial airline, while the Trade Finance increase reflected the addition of a few accounts. The decline in Consumer relates to a transfer of a private student loan portfolio to held for sale. The level of new non-accrual loan inflow decreased significantly compared to the prior two quarters on a pre-FSA basis, most notably in Corporate Finance. Losses on non-accrual loans are first applied against discounts and thus do not reduce post FSA loan balances to the same extent as pre-FSA balances.

Loans at September 30, 2010 include $515.0 million ($688.1 million exclusive of FSA discount) of modifications deemed to be troubled debt restructurings (TDR’s). Approximately 49% of the TDR modifications were deferral of principal or interest payments. Additionally, $328.3 million, exclusive of FSA discount, of modified loans were deemed to not be TDR’s, with approximately 38% of these balances on non-accrual. These balances are further detailed in the following table.

The decrease in non-accretable discounts during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 is largely due to prepayments, asset sales and transfer of non-accretable discount to accretable discount. The accelerated decline during the third quarter related to the transfer of a consumer portfolio of private student loans to held for sale.

Other income (excluding operating lease rentals) decreased from the second quarter primarily due to lower recoveries on receivables charged-off prior to the adoption of FSA.

Rental income on operating leaseswas relatively unchanged on flat asset levels and includes FSA amortization of $29.7 million and $88.3 million for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively. See“Net Finance Revenues”and“Financing and Leasing Assets –Results by Business Segment”and“Concentrations –Operating Leases”.

Recoveries of pre-FSA charge-offsreflects repayments or other workout resolutions on loans charged off prior to the adoption of FSA. These recoveries are recorded as other income, not as a reduction to provision for loan losses.

Gains on loan and portfolio salesreflect amounts received in excess of current net asset carrying values. We sold $1.2 billion (pre-FSA) of loans including $741 million of Vendor Receivables (most of which was a liquidating consumer portfolio) and $508 million of Corporate Finance loans. Year to date, we have sold approximately $3.7 billion of loans.

Gains on sales of leasing equipmentresulted from sales volume of $293 million for the quarter and $802 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Equipment sales in the third quarter consists of $118 million of Transportation equipment including a few aircraft and some railcars, vendor equipment of $110 million and assets in Corporate Finance.

Fees, commissions and other revenueare comprised of asset management, agent and advisory fees, servicing fees, accretion and impairments, as well as income from joint ventures. Fees and commissions reflect low market activity and reduced joint venture earnings.

51

Counterparty receivable accretionprimarily reflects the accretion of a fair value mark on a receivable from Goldman Sachs International related to a secured borrowing facility. See“Other Assets/Other Liabilities”

Gains/(losses) on derivatives and foreign currency exchangereflect foreign currency exposures that were largely hedged during the third quarter.

Investment gains/(losses)primarily reflects the gain on sale of our equity interest in Care Investment Trust Inc., an externally managed real estate investment trust (REIT) formed by CIT in 2007.

Valuation allowance for assets held for salefor the quarter relates to student loans held for sale and Corporate finance loans.

Depreciation on operating lease equipmentis recognized on owned equipment over the lease term or projected economic life of the asset, whichever is shorter. FSA adjustments reduced 2010 depreciation expense by $66.5 million and $205.6 million for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively. See“Net Finance Revenues”,“Results by Business Segment”and“Concentrations – Operating Leases”.

Total salaries and general operating expenses were down from last quarter on lower compensation and benefits costs, primarily related to costs associated with an employee retention program paid in the second quarter and lower overall headcount.

52

Headcount declined approximately 5%, primarily reflecting the Australia / New Zealand business that was sold on June 30, 2010.

Provision for severance and facilities rationalization activitiesreflects our continued focus on organization efficiencies. As a result of our evaluation of office space needs and further efficiency improvements, we recorded a charge of $6 million. We expect to further vacate space during the 2010 fourth quarter and anticipate recording an additional charge of approximately $40 million.

Taxes on certain international operations and valuation allowances recorded against U.S. losses have driven the effective tax rate for the third quarter and year to date 2010. The provision for 2010 largely results from tax on the earnings in international operations. The year end 2010 effective tax rate may vary from the current rate primarily due to changes in the mix of domestic and international earnings and the impact of the valuation allowance recorded against U.S. and international deferred taxes in 2010.

Included in the third quarter 2010 and year to date tax provisions are $7.7 million and $31.2 million, respectively, of tax expense primarily related to changes in liabilities for uncertain tax positions and valuation allowances against international deferred tax assets recorded in the previous quarters of 2010. We anticipate that it is reasonably possible that the total unrecognized tax benefits will decrease due to the settlement of audits and the expiration of statute of limitations prior to September 30, 2011 in the range of $10-$25 million. The tax provision for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2009 included $34.0 million and $9.9 million, respectively, of tax benefit, primarily related to the reclassification of the deferred tax asset on the cash flow hedges unwound during the third quarter out of other comprehensive income and into continuing operations, net of changes in valuation allowances and liabilities for uncertain tax positions.

In 2009, CIT’s reorganization constituted an ownership change under Section 382 of the Code, which places an annual dollar limit on the use of NOL carry forwards. There are two relief provisions for limitations on NOL usage in Chapter 11 bankruptcy. Under one relief provision, Sec. 382(l)(5), the Company would have avoided any limitation on the use of NOL carry forwards, but the amount of the NOL would have been calculated without taking into account deductions for certain interest expense with respect to notes that were exchanged for equity, effectively reducing the Company’s NOL by more than $1 billion. In addition, if the Company had undergone an ownership change within two years of the reorganization, our remaining NOL carry forwards, if any, would have been entirely eliminated. To reduce this risk, the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation had been amended to include restrictions on trading of the Company’s Common Stock. Under the second relief provision, Sec. 382(l)(6), the amount of NOL the

53

Company may use is limited based on the value of equity immediately after any ownership change. The Company has estimated its NOL usage will be limited to $230 million per annum; however, there is no reduction in the amount of the NOL and the requirement to eliminate unused NOL carry forwards upon a change of ownership within two years of the reorganization will not apply.

With the filing of the 2009 consolidated federal tax return, we elected to apply IRC Sec. 382(l)(6) to the net operating losses and other tax assets that the Company had prior to its emergence from bankruptcy on December 10, 2009.

As of December 31, 2009, we had federal net operating losses (NOL’s) of $7.2 billion prior to cancellation of indebtedness income. As a result of the Company’s emergence from bankruptcy, federal NOL carry forwards were reduced, due to cancellation of indebtedness income, to approximately $2.6 billion, which will expire from 2027 through 2029. The Company has not finalized its assessment of the tax effects of bankruptcy emergence, and estimates are subject to revision. Based on the disclosures made with the 2009 consolidated federal income tax return, the Company could have significant future benefits, which have not been recorded in the financial statements and would represent an uncertain tax position.

FSA adjustments are excluded from the calculation of US taxable income. Excluding FSA adjustments, we anticipate significant tax losses for both the 2010 and 2011 tax years. These losses, since they were incurred post emergence, would not be subject to Section 382 limitations.

Tax Attribute Preservation Provision

The Company amended its Certificate of Incorporation prior to emergence from bankruptcy by adding a “Tax Attribute Preservation Provision” to impose certain restrictions on the transfer of the Company’s Common Stock. The Tax Attribute Preservation Provision was designed to protect the net operating losses and other tax assets that the Company had prior to its emergence from bankruptcy on December 10, 2009, if the Company elected to apply Section 382(l)(5). In light of the Company's election to apply Section 382(l)(6), the Board of Directors has determined that electing to apply Section 382(l)(5) is no longer in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, and accordingly, the Tax Attribute Preservation Provision has no further force or effect.

RESULTS BY BUSINESS SEGMENT

SeeNote 12 — Business Segment Informationfor additional details.

Certain expenses are not allocated to our operating segments and are reported in Corporate and Other. These consist primarily of: (1) provision for severance and facilities rationalization activities; (2) certain tax provisions and benefits; and (3) losses on foreign currency exposures and related items.

In 2009, Corporate and Other also includes certain funding costs not allocated to our segments. Essentially all funding costs including prepayment penalties on the first lien facilities were allocated to segments in 2010.

Corporate Finance

Corporate Finance provides financing solutions and advisory services to small and mid-size businesses in a wide array of industries, including commercial and industrial (C&I), communications, media and entertainment (CM&E), healthcare, small business lending, and energy. Revenue is generated primarily from interest earned on loans, supplemented by fees collected on other services provided, such as advisory, arrangement and collateral and administrative agent services.

Corporate Finance new business activity continued to improve with increases in both committed and funded new volume. Committed new business volume of $404 million was up 20% and funded new business volume was up 29% from the prior quarter. CIT Bank originated approximately 89% of the U.S. funded new business volume. Corporate Finance secured several agency roles and we continue to build our pipeline for new deals.

The sequential net income decline is primarily due to lower FSA accretion benefits on slower portfolio prepayments, reduced gains on asset sales, and lower recoveries on loans charged-off prior to the adoption of FSA. Credit quality is stabilizing as evidenced by a decrease in pre and post FSA charge-offs and non-accrual loans. Corporate Finance continues to further optimize its cost structure and loan portfolio by selling non-strategic assets and underperforming loans, though the pace will vary based on changes in pricing and market supply and demand. Assets sold were a combination of credit concern assets, non-performing loans, real estate and lower margin and non-strategic performing loans. Headcount has been reduced commensurate with the reduced portfolio size.

55

• Net income for the quarter decreased $115.2 million principally from lower FSA accretion benefits on slower prepayments and decreased other income due to less asset sales and lower recoveries of pre-FSA charge-offs, partially offset by lower operating expenses.

• Net finance revenue decreased as a percentage of AEA primarily due to higher loan prepayment fees in prior quarter.

• Provision for credit losses reflects higher specific reserves on certain media and energy accounts and increased non-specific reserves related to accelerating loss recognition in the small business lending portfolio. Net charge-offs continued to decrease sequentially, except in small business lending, which increased $7 million from the prior quarter. Recoveries of pre-FSA charge-offs in other income were slightly higher than current quarter charge-offs and approximate the nine month period.

• Other income is $74.9 million lower than the second quarter due to a $40 million decrease in recoveries of pre-FSA charge-offs and lower gains on asset sales.

• Operating expenses decreased from the prior quarter due to reduced headcount and lower general operating expenses as the business continues to realign its operations.

• Non-accrual loans decreased $128.7 million from June 30, 2010 as a result of the sale of non-performing loans, prepayments, collections and charge-offs. The portfolios with the largest reductions were communications, media and entertainment and commercial real estate.

• Assets declined $0.7 billion from the second quarter and $2.8 billion from December 2009 due to asset sales, continued credit line pay down by customers, and prepayments and non-renewals of existing credit lines. Asset sales in the third quarter consisted of $508 million of finance receivable sales (on a pre-FSA basis) including a large energy lease transaction and $64 million of equipment sales.

56

Transportation Finance

Transportation Finance leases primarily commercial aircraft to airline companies globally and rail equipment to North American operators, and provides other financing to these customers as well as those in the defense sector. Revenue is generated from rents collected on leased assets, and to a lesser extent from interest on loans, fees, and gains from assets sold.

Net income rose from the second quarter, as the benefits of higher gains on asset sales and lower operating and tax expenses were largely offset by a higher provision for credit losses and FSA related amortization that dampened net operating lease rental income. The Commercial Air fleet remained effectively fully utilized at September 30, 2010 and lease commitments are in place for all 16 aircraft to be delivered over the next twelve months. During the quarter, six new aircraft were delivered. Funding with secured debt was obtained for six planes delivered earlier this year. CIT Bank originated one aerospace loan transaction. Rail fleet utilization including customer commitments to lease improved from 93% to 94%. Rail lease rates and utilization have been impacted by weak freight demand and increased velocity on the rail network which have combined to generate a broad-based surplus of rail assets.

• Net finance revenue decreased from last quarter as FSA amortization increased due to the bankruptcy of an airline customer and funding costs were slightly higher. In early August 2010 a foreign-based airline to whom we have leased airplanes filed for bankruptcy protection. (Details are summarized inConcentrations -Aerospace.) Rail benefitted from higher utilization.

• The favorable earnings impact of FSA accretion is recognized over a longer time horizon in Transportation Finance as compared to other segments given the longer asset lives. FSA accretion in the quarter resulted in an increase to interest income of $19 million ($63 million year-to-date), a reduction to rental income on operating leases of $30 million from

57

amortization of lease contract intangible assets ($88 million year-to- date), and a $58 million reduction to depreciation ($175 million year-to-date).

• Other income includes $23.6 million of gains ($51.6 million year-to-date), including $19.0 million in Aerospace and $4.6 million in Rail, on $118.2 million ($270.4 million year-to-date) of aircraft and railcar equipment sales.

• 2010 year to date volume consisted primarily of the delivery of 16 commercial aircraft from our existing order book, all of which were leased. SeeNote 10 — Commitments. The order book reflects reduction of four aircraft as eight 2012 Airbus A320 Family orders were replaced with four 2012 to 2013 Airbus A330 orders.

• The provision for loan losses increased due to an increase in non-specific reserves and reserves established for one aerospace exposure. Non-accrual loans increased $22 million, primarily due to the addition of one commercial airline secured loan. There were no charge-offs during the quarter.

• Financing and leasing assets were stable at $12.0 billion as new equipment purchases (principally aircraft) were offset by equipment sales and depreciation.

58

factored volume increased to $7.0 billion, from $6.3 billion in the second quarter, reflecting normal seasonal trends. While net charge-offs declined and remain at modest levels, non-accrual loans increased to $199 million.

• Net interest income increased $10.6 million compared to the second quarter due to lower borrowing costs driven by the June securitization.

• Factoring commissions improved modestly, as the increased volume was slightly offset by a modest reduction in rates.

• The provision for credit losses was comparable with the prior quarter, and the year to date provision includes amounts for rebuilding loan loss reserves in the first quarter after the reserve was eliminated under FSA. Third quarter net charge-offs were $7.3 million compared to second quarter of $12.4 million.

• Other income reflects a decrease in recoveries on accounts charged off pre-FSA to $1.1 million in the third quarter versus $11.3 million in the second quarter.

• Non-performing loans increased to $199 million reflecting the addition of certain secured loans.

• Finance receivables increased $91 million to $2.6 billion from the end of the second quarter.

Vendor Finance net income improved, reflecting the benefits of asset sales as well as lower credit and operating costs. Reported volume increased modestly; excluding the impact of the June sale of Australia and New Zealand business volume rose 17%. Current quarter volume included an increase across many programs and regions, including sequential growth in 7 of our top 10 vendor programs. We also extended our Lenovo Financial Services program to Western Europe.

• Net interest income decreased due to portfolio runoff and asset sales, and net finance revenue as a percentage of AEA was impacted by an $11.5 million decrease in FSA interest accretion. Portfolio yields on a pre-FSA basis remained stable.

• Other income reflects current quarter gains on asset sales. Recoveries on accounts charged off pre-FSA decreased to $6.1 million from $15.0 million prior quarter.

• Net charge-offs increased, but non-accrual loans and delinquencies decreased from the second quarter. The prior quarter provision for credit losses included additions to reserves related to a liquidating consumer portfolio. This portfolio was sold during the third quarter and the associated reserve reversed.

• Operating expenses decreased due to portfolio and asset sales, prior quarter employee retention program costs, and efforts to streamline costs.

• Tax rates decreased as the second quarter tax provision reflects amounts required to approximate the effective tax rate on a year to date basis; tax rate is driven by the mix of taxable income between U.S. and international sources.

• Total financing and leasing assets decreased by $1 billion reflecting $851 million of sales, including the sale of a $564 million liquidating consumer portfolio, and collection activity.

Consumer

Consumer assets and results include student lending and other principally unsecured consumer loans, all of which are running off.

As of September 30, 2010, $0.3 billion of U.S. government guaranteed student loans and $0.1 billion of private loans were classified as assets held for sale. Consumer continues managing the $8.4 billion liquidating portfolio of government-guaranteed student loans. The decline in net income from last quarter is primarily driven by the gain on sale of guaranteed assets in the second quarter and the loss on the valuation of assets held for sale in the third quarter. Fresh start accounting accretion improved results from the prior year.

• Net finance revenue decreased from the prior period due to lower asset balances and timing differences on the reset of asset yields and debt costs.

• Other income reflects a lower gain on sale due to the third quarter loss on $0.4 billion of assets held for sale and a prior quarter gain on a $0.6 billion sale of student loans.

• Net charge-offs of $7.5 million were lower than the prior quarter of $9.3 million due to improvement in delinquencies on private loans.

• The student loan portfolio decreased 2% during the current quarter due to normal liquidations, but this rate will accelerate with the finalization of the sales of $400 million of assets held for sale, which are anticipated to close during the fourth quarter.

• Delinquencies increased due to changes in consumer servicing laws, which have temporarily delayed customer communications and the collection process.

Corporate and Other

Corporate and other expense in 2010 is comprised primarily of expenses not allocated to the segments, including provisions for severance and facilities rationalization activities (see Expense section for detail), losses on foreign currency exposure positions and certain tax expenses.

• Interest income consists of interest and dividend income primarily from deposits held at other depository institutions, U.S. Treasury Securities, and Mortgage Backed Securities.

• Interest expense reflects amounts not allocated to the business segments. Management has allocated interest on high cost debt to each segment, which had previously been reflected in Corporate and Other.

• Other income in the first quarter included losses on foreign currency exposures that were largely hedged by the end of the second quarter.

• Other expenses, excluding provision for severance and facilities rationalization activities and gain (loss) on debt and debt related derivative extinguishments, reflects amounts unallocated to business segments.

• Other expenses – provision for severance and facilities rationalization activities of $6.2 million reflects a facility consolidation charge and severance costs. We expect to further vacate space during the 2010 fourth quarter and anticipate recording an additional charge of approximately $40 million.

• The segments record tax expense or benefit as if they were reporting on a stand alone basis. Corporate and other results include tax adjustments to bring the tax rate to the consolidated level. The adjustment reflects the Company’s NOL position.

During 2010, we have been optimizing our portfolio of financing and leasing assets through strategic asset and portfolio sales. This activity, as well as collections and prepayments, offset sequential new business volume and previously securitized receivables brought back on balance sheet in conjunction with the adoption of new accounting guidance in the 2010 first quarter.

Vendor Relationships

In Vendor Finance, our strategic relationships with industry-leading equipment vendors are an important origination channel for our financing and leasing activities. These vendor alliances include traditional vendor finance programs, joint ventures and profit sharing structures. New business volume with our top 5 vendor partners represented approximately 59% of Vendor Finance’s total volume for the third quarter, essentially unchanged from the second quarter.

67

The Lenovo Financial Services program (LFS) program was established during the second quarter to provide a broad range of vendor end user financing solutions for Lenovo partners and customers. During the third quarter, CIT signed a letter of intent to extend LFS to Western Europe. In the fourth quarter we expect to fund Lenovo U.S. originations in CIT Bank.

We maintain longstanding relationships with Dell and Avaya in multiple international markets. During the third quarter, we sold a $564 million portfolio associated with the Dell U.S. consumer program to Dell Financial Services.

In early August 2010, a foreign-based airline to whom we have leased airplanes filed for bankruptcy protection in its home country and the U.S. As of early November, four aircraft have been returned from the carrier with three of these aircraft re-deployed, and marketing efforts underway for the fourth plane. We have also signed an agreement with the carrier for return of the remaining four aircraft.

SeeNote 10 — Commitments.

Student Lending

Consumer consists primarily of our liquidating student loan portfolio. During 2010, we sold approximately 6% of the portfolio. During the third quarter, we transferred our private student loan portfolio and a pool of government-guaranteed loans to assets held for sale. These sales are anticipated to close during the fourth quarter. We continue to manage the remaining $8.4 billion liquidating portfolio of government-guaranteed student loans.

RISK MANAGEMENT

We are subject to a variety of risks that manifest themselves in the course of our business. We consider the following to be the principal forms of risk:

• Credit risk (including lending, counterparty, and equipment and residual risk)

• Market risk (including interest rate, foreign currency and liquidity risk)

• Regulatory compliance risk (compliance with laws and regulations)

• Operational risk (operational errors or employee misfeasance or malfeasance)

Managing risk is essential to conducting our businesses and to our profitability. Our risk management processes and procedures are designed to identify and analyze important business risks, to set appropriate policies and limits, and to monitor risks and limits using administrative and information systems, along with policies and

70

programs. We continue to enhance our risk management practices, including governance, measurement and monitoring.

Our risk management policies and practices are described in detail in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

CREDIT RISK

The extension of credit, through our lending and leasing activities, is the fundamental purpose of our businesses. As such, we maintain comprehensive credit risk management practices, including credit underwriting, on-going monitoring and collections. In light of our credit performance in 2009, we are reviewing and enhancing these practices and our overall credit management infrastructure. Specifically, during the first nine months of 2010, we have focused on credit grading and problem loan identification, as well as short and long term information systems projects, to enhance our management and monitoring of our existing portfolio. In addition, we have made key staff additions and realigned credit officer reporting lines and enhanced and refined our underwriting policies and underwriting guidelines to strengthen the controls on our origination activities. While these actions have resulted in significant improvements in our credit practices, several longer term initiatives, which are currently in process, related to our credit information systems and dependent downstream processes, will need to be completed before we will be in line with market best practices.

Credit exposures are reviewed and monitored on an ongoing basis to identify, as early as possible, customers that are experiencing declining creditworthiness or financial difficulty. A two-tier risk system is utilized to capture and analyze credit risk based on probability of obligor default and loss given default. Our credit risk management practices also apply to counterparty credit exposures.

We evaluate performance of our receivables across the organization to reduce risk concentrations. We monitor concentrations by borrower, industry, geography and equipment type to reduce credit concentrations. We test for asset impairment based upon projected cash flows and relevant market data with any impairment in value charged to earnings.

We have systems, processes and expertise to manage equipment and residual risk in our leasing businesses. Our process consists of: 1) setting residual values at transaction inception; 2) systematic residual value reviews; and 3) monitoring of actual levels of residual realizations. Residual realizations, by business and product, are reviewed as part of our quarterly financial and asset quality review, both within the businesses and by senior management. Reviews for impairment are performed at least annually.

MARKET RISK

We monitor exposure to market risk by analyzing the impact of potential interest rate and foreign exchange rate changes on financial performance. We are currently implementing a vendor-supplied market risk management system to replace our internally developed system. We anticipate the system being operational by December 2010.

At September 30, 2010, the Company’s loan and lease portfolio was evenly split between fixed and floating rate. Our interest-bearing liabilities, at September 30, 2010, were approximately 80% fixed rate based, with the remainder floating rate. While the liability restructuring materially improved our liquidity, the conversion of our liabilities to largely U.S. dollar fixed rate debt, as part of the plan of reorganization, resulted in an asset sensitive position as our assets will re-price faster than our liabilities. Therefore, our net interest margin may increase if interest rates rise, or decrease should interest rates decline.

71

We evaluate and monitor risk through two primary metrics.

• Margin at Risk (MAR), which measures the impact of hypothetical changes in interest rates on net interest income over the subsequent twelve months.

• Economic Value of Equity (EVE), which measures the net economic value of equity by assessing market value of assets, liabilities and derivatives.

Although we believe that these measurements provide an estimate of our interest rate sensitivity, they do not account for potential changes in credit quality, size, composition and prepayment characteristics of our balance sheet, nor do they account for other business developments that could affect net income nor for management actions that could be taken to change our risk profile.

We have historically sought to hedge our non-dollar denominated lending and leasing activities through local currency borrowings and, to the extent such borrowings were unavailable, derivative instruments (foreign currency exchange forward contracts and cross currency swaps). Additionally, we have utilized derivative instruments to hedge our net investments in foreign operations.

The Plan of Reorganization resulted in non U.S. dollar denominated debt being exchanged for U.S. dollar debt. Most of the Company’s outstanding derivative instruments that hedged interest rate and foreign exchange rate risk were terminated. This resulted in the re-opening of foreign exchange exposures that had previously been hedged through former debt and derivative instruments. We have largely restored hedges to protect against these exposures (transactional and translational). Transactional exposure may result in income statement losses should related foreign currencies depreciate relative to the dollar or, conversely, income statement gains should the foreign currencies appreciate versus the dollar. Likewise our equity account may be similarly affected by related foreign currency movements as a result of translational exposures.

We maintain an active liquidity risk management and monitoring process, all of which is designed to ensure the availability of adequate cash resources and funding capacity to meet our obligations. Our primary sources of liquidity are cash, which is invested to ensure preservation of principal and immediate availability, secured funding programs, and the collection of cash flows from portfolio assets originated in the normal course of business.

We utilize a series of measurement tools to assess the level and adequacy of our liquidity position, liquidity conditions and trends. Approved liquidity limits and guidelines are monitored to facilitate the active management of our funding and liquidity position. Stress scenarios are developed and applied to measure the resiliency of the liquidity position, and to identify stress points requiring remedial action.

REGULATORY COMPLIANCE RISK

We manage regulatory compliance risk to ensure that programs and processes are in place to monitor and comply with banking, privacy, consumer and other key laws and regulations in each jurisdiction in which we do business and to monitor compliance with the ethical standards of the Company. When we became a bank holding company in December 2008, we became subject to a number of regulatory requirements that previously did not apply. For example, as described in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, we are subject to the Written Agreement with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, which, among other things, requires us to develop plans to enhance corporate governance, including increasing resources in audit, risk management and control functions, correct weaknesses in credit risk management, review and revise, as appropriate, the consolidated allowance for loan and lease losses methodology, and develop capital and liquidity plans. In light of these requirements, we are actively working to identify and close gaps in our regulatory compliance programs and processes. In addition, Corporate Compliance is working with business units to develop procedures to ensure that our policies are followed on a uniform basis. If we fail to identify and address these issues or otherwise comply with these requirements on a timely basis, we could be subject to significant regulatory sanctions and restrictions on our business. For more information about regulatory matters, see “Our business may be adversely affected if we do not successfully implement our project to transform our compliance, risk management, finance, treasury, operations and other areas of our business to meet the standards of a bank holding company” under Item 1A. Risk Factors in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K.

OPERATIONAL RISK

Operational risk is the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, systems or human factors, or from external events, which may result from transaction processing errors, breaches of internal controls, fraud by employees or persons outside the Company, or business interruption due to system failures or other events. Operational risk also includes legal or regulatory actions that could arise as a result of noncompliance with applicable laws and regulations. An operational event could result in losses in the form of explicit charges, increased operational costs, financial losses, damage to reputation, or foregone opportunities.

72

To address these risks, CIT is enhancing comprehensive policies and an internal control framework designed to provide a sound operational environment and provide oversight. We have developed a loss-event database to track amounts and sources of operational losses, which will identify weaknesses and highlight corrective actions needed. Operational risk metrics are monitored by Enterprise Risk Management. Our internal audit function monitors and tests the overall effectiveness of internal control and operational systems on an ongoing basis.

SECURED BORROWINGS AND ON-BALANCE SHEET SECURITIZATION TRANSACTIONS

Secured financings have been our primary source of funding since mid-2007. These secured financing transactions do not meet accounting requirements for sale treatment and are recorded as non-recourse secured borrowings, with the assets remaining on-balance sheet. The debt associated with these transactions is collateralized by receivables or collateral values of the assets. Certain related cash balances are restricted.

SeeNote 4 — Long-Term Borrowings, and Note 13 — Summarized Financial Information of Subsidiaries.

Secured Credit Facility and Expansion Credit Facility (“First Lien Facilities”)

On July 20, 2009, CIT entered into a $3 billion Secured Credit Facility with Barclays Bank PLC and other lenders. On October 28, 2009, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries amended and restated the agreement evidencing the Secured Credit Facility to provide for an Expansion Credit Facility (collectively with the Secured Credit Facility, the “First Lien Facilities”) to expand the commitments by $4.5 billion.

During 2010 we repaid $4.5 billion ($1.5 billion in the third quarter) of the First Lien Facilities. In August we refinanced the remaining $3 billion by amending and extending the First Lien Facilities, which was accounted for as a modification. As a result, the first lien debt (the “Amended First Lien Facility”) now matures in August 2015 and carries an interest rate of LIBOR + 4.50% with a 1.75% LIBOR floor. In conjunction with the refinancing, certain existing covenants associated with the First Lien Facilities were also amended.

The Amended First Lien Facility is generally secured by a first lien on substantially all U.S. assets that are not otherwise pledged to secure the borrowings of special purpose entities as described above under “Secured Borrowings”, 65% of the voting and 100% of the non-voting stock of first-tier foreign subsidiaries, 100% of the stock of CIT Aerospace International (except one nominee share) and between 44% and 65% of certain other non-U.S., non-regulated subsidiaries. The Amended First Lien Facility is subject to a collateral coverage covenant (based on CIT’s book value in accordance with GAAP) of 2.5x the outstanding loan balance tested quarterly and upon certain transfers, dispositions or releases of collateral. The Amended First Lien Facility also contains a number of additional covenants, some of which don’t impose restrictions on the Company if CIT continues to maintain a collateral coverage ratio of 2.75x or greater. At September 30, 2010, the coverage ratio was 4.4x.

Series A and B Notes

The Series A Notes and Series B Notes (the “Second Lien Notes”) are generally secured by second-priority (second lien) security interests in substantially all the assets securing the Amended First Lien Facility. The Series B Notes are further secured by Delaware Funding’s pledge of inter-company notes issued by CIT Financial Ltd., which are the primary assets of Delaware Funding.

The Second Lien Note Indentures likewise limit the ability of the Company, Delaware Funding and the Company’s restricted subsidiaries to make certain payments or investments, incur indebtedness (including guarantees), issue preferred stock, incur liens, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, pay dividends, sell assets, and enter into transactions with affiliates.

In late October and early November 2010, CIT redeemed approximately $1.4 billion of the 10.25% Series B Second Lien Notes that mature from 2013 through 2016 using cash at the BHC. As provided under the terms of the Series

73

B Notes, the redemption price was 103.5% of the aggregate principal amount redeemed. After these redemptions, approximately $0.8 billion of Series B Notes maturing in 2017 remain outstanding.

Other Secured Borrowings

At September 30, 2010, we had other secured borrowings of $11.5 billion comprised largely of securitization financings. This amount declined from $12.4 billion and $14.3 billion at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, as borrowings on new facilities described below were more than offset by repayments on existing structures corresponding to receivable runoff.

At September 30, 2010, a total of $3,897.9 million, after fresh start accounting, of financing and leasing assets, comprised of $2,153.3 million in Corporate Finance, $615.9 million in Consumer and $1,128.7 million in commercial aerospace in Transportation Finance, were pledged in conjunction with $2,387.6 million in secured debt issued to investors under the $2,125 million Goldman Sachs International (“GSI”) facility. Amounts funded under the facility, net of cash collateral posted to GSI, totaled $1,467.9 million at September 30, 2010, as $682.5 million reported as unsecured counterparty receivable is owed to CIT from GSI for debt discount, return of collateral posted to GSI and settlements resulting from market value changes to asset-backed securities underlying the structure.

Collateral amounts required under this agreement will fluctuate with market values of the underlying securities. Actual terms of the facility, including facility usage and collateral coverage are measured on a pre-FSA basis.

We successfully entered into over $2.7 billion of new secured funding transactions during 2010, the largest of which include:

• During the 2010 third quarter we received approximately $200 million in aggregate proceeds through an existing facility guaranteed by the European Export Credit Agencies (“ECA”) secured by several Airbus aircraft that were delivered earlier this year.

• On June 25, 2010, CIT closed a $650 million committed Trade Finance conduit with Citibank, N.A. as Administrative Agent and Deutsche Bank AG, New York Branch as an additional committed lender. The revolving period expires in June 2011 and the final maturity is in August 2011.

• On June 24, 2010, CIT closed a £100 million committed UK Vendor Finance conduit with Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch as Facility Agent and committed lender. The revolving period expires in June 2011 and the final maturity is in 2018.

• On March 29, 2010, CIT closed a $1 billion committed U.S. Vendor Finance conduit with Barclays Bank PLC as Administrative Agent and three additional banks as committed lenders. The revolving period expires in March 2011 and the final maturity is in 2018.

• On March 11, 2010, CIT closed a $667 million securitization, backed by a pool of equipment leases originated by CIT Vendor Finance. The Class A notes under the securitization constitute eligible collateral under the Federal Reserve Bank of New York’s Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan Facility (TALF).

Cash Sweep and Required Cash Sweep Payments

Under the terms of the Second Lien Notes, the Company is required to use certain cash collections to repay the Amended First Lien Facility and Second Lien Notes on an accelerated basis (the “Cash Sweep”). The Company may also use amounts in the Cash Sweep Accounts for certain designated purposes. While the Amended First Lien Facility no longer contains a Cash Sweep provision, the terms of the Second Lien Notes still require Cash Sweep payments to be made in order of priority first to the Amended First Lien Facility and once all obligations under the

74

Amended First Lien Facility have been paid off in full, then to repay or redeem the Second Lien Notes (including purchases of Second Lien Notes in open market transactions, pursuant to tender offers or otherwise).

During the third quarter (prior to the amendment and extension of the First Lien Facilities), as permitted under the Second Lien Notes, CIT voluntarily used approximately $365.0 million of Cash Sweep balances to prepay the First Lien Facilities. The Cash Sweep account had a $644 million balance at the end of the third quarter, which is included in other restricted cash.

The Cash Sweep is described in detail in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Supplemental Funding and Liquidity Information

The following tables summarize significant contractual payments and contractual commitment expirations at September 30, 2010. Certain amounts in the payments table are not the same as the respective balance sheet totals as this table is before FSA, in order to better reflect projected contractual payments. Likewise, actual cash flows will vary materially from those depicted in the payments table as further explained in the table footnotes.

While collections provide a meaningful source of liquidity, the Company targets cash as its primary liquidity source. Cash liquidity is maintained to permit the Company to satisfy funding and other operating obligations, while also providing protection against unforeseen stress events such as unanticipated funding obligations, including customer line draws, or disruptions to capital markets or other funding sources. At September 30, 2010, cash was comprised of $6.5 billion at the BHC, $1.6 billion at CIT Bank, $1.5 billion at operating subsidiaries, and $1.6 billion in restricted cash.

(2)	Aerospace commitments are net of amounts on deposit with manufacturers.
(3)	The balance cannot be estimated past 2011; therefore the remaining balance is reflected in 2012.

Financing commitments declined from December 31, 2009 reflecting receivable sales. At September 30, 2010, unfunded commitments related to lead agented asset-based loans were $440 million. Financing commitments above exclude roughly $1.1 billion of commitments that were not available for draw due to requirements for collateral availability or covenant conditions existing at September 30, 2010. The Company monitors line utilization daily and updates liquidity forecasts and funding plans.

At September 30, 2010 substantially all financing commitments were senior facilities, with approximately 46% secured by equipment or other assets and the remainder relying upon cash-flow or enterprise value. The vast majority of commitments are syndicated transactions. CIT is the lead agent in 36% of the facilities. Most of our undrawn and available financing commitments are in Corporate Finance. The top ten undrawn commitments totaled $412 million.

RISK WEIGHTED ASSETS

As a BHC, capital adequacy is based upon risk-weighted asset ratios in accordance with quantitative measures established by the Federal Reserve. Under these guidelines, certain commitments and off-balance sheet transactions are assigned asset equivalent balances, and together with on-balance sheet assets, are divided into risk categories, each of which is assigned a risk weighting ranging from 0% (for example U.S. Treasury Bonds) to 100% (for example commercial loans). The reconciliations of balance sheet assets to risk-weighted assets are presented below:

⁽²⁾Includes the portion of net deferred tax assets that does not qualify for inclusion in Tier 1 capital based on the capital guidelines and the Tier 1 capital charge for nonfinancial equity investments.

⁽³⁾Banking organizations are permitted to include in Tier 2 Capital up to 45% of net unrealized pretax gains on available-for-sale equity securities with readily determinable fair values.

Regulatory capital guidelines are based on the Capital Accord of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (Basel I). We compute capital ratios in accordance with Federal Reserve capital guidelines for assessing adequacy of capital. To be well capitalized, a BHC generally must maintain Tier 1 and Total Capital Ratios of at least 6% and 10%, respectively. The Federal Reserve Board also has established minimum guidelines. The minimum ratios are: Tier 1 Capital Ratio of 4.0%, Total Capital Ratio of 8.0% and Leverage Ratio of 4.0%. In order to be considered a “well capitalized” depository institution under FDIC guidelines, CIT Bank must maintain a Tier 1 Capital Ratio of at least 6%, a Total Capital Ratio of at least 10%, and a Tier 1 Leverage Ratio of at least 5%.

Upon becoming a BHC, we committed to maintain capital ratios in excess of the “well capitalized” levels. CIT committed to maintain a Total Capital Ratio of at least 13% and CIT Bank committed to maintain a Tier 1 Leverage Capital Ratio of at least 15%.

At the above periods, both CIT and CIT Bank capital ratios were in excess of required and committed ratios.

There have been no significant changes to the methodologies and processes used in developing estimates relating to these items from what was described in our 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

78

CIT Bank

CIT Bank originated approximately 35% of the total U.S. funded volume in the third quarter, up from almost 15% in the second quarter. Committed loan volume increased to $314 million from $180 million in the second quarter, of which $226 million was funded.

The prior period revisions discussed in Note 2 also impacted CIT Bank. Net income was revised from $22 million to $23 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 and was essentially unchanged for the quarter ended June 30, 2010. The Bank reported net income of $21 million in the third quarter, down from $29 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 driven primarily by the gain on sale of government guaranteed assets last quarter. The Tier 1 Capital ratio was 57.3% and Tier 1 Leverage ratio was 22.1% at September 30, 2010. Total assets at September 30, 2010 were $7.4 billion, consisting of (a) $1.5 billion of cash, (b) $5.2 billion of loans, including $3.9 billion of consumer loans, primarily student loans and $1.3 billion of commercial loans, and (c) $0.7 billion of other assets, including $0.3 billion of investments. Deposits, primarily brokered CD’s, totaled $4.8 billion, and secured debt was $0.8 billion at September 30, 2010.

LEGISLATIVE DEVELOPMENTS

Dodd-Frank Act

On July 21, 2010, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act was signed into law (the “Dodd-Frank Act”). The Dodd-Frank Act implements a variety of far-reaching changes and has been called the most sweeping reform of the financial services industry since the 1930’s. Many of the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act could affect our ability to conduct our business, particularly with respect to the cost of capital, including:

• Imposition of higher prudential standards, including more stringent risk-based capital, leverage, liquidity and risk- management requirements, and numerous other requirements on “systemically significant institutions,” defined to include, among other things, all bank holding companies with assets of at least $50 billion (which would include CIT);

• Imposition of additional costs and fees, including fees to be set by the Federal Reserve and charged to “systemically significant institutions” to cover the cost of regulating such institutions and any FDIC assessment made to cover the costs of any regular or special examination of CIT Bank or its affiliates;

• Establishment of a consumer financial protection bureau with broad authority to implement new consumer protection regulations and to examine and enforce compliance with federal consumer laws;

• Prohibition of “proprietary trading” and limitation of the sponsorship of, and investment in, hedge funds and private equity funds by banking entities, including bank holding companies, such as CIT;

• Establishment of new derivatives standards to require greater transparency in over-the-counter derivatives markets and prohibiting insured depository institutions from conducting significant swaps-related activities;

• Requirement that any firm that organizes or initiates an asset-backed security transaction to retain a portion of the credit risk;

• Requirement that the SEC, the Federal Reserve and other agencies to jointly issue rules requiring enhanced reporting and regulation of incentive-based compensation structures at regulated entities, including bank holding companies, banks, registered broker-dealers, and registered investment advisors; and

• Expansion of the coverage and scope of the regulations that limit affiliate transactions within a banking organization.

Many provisions in the Dodd-Frank Act remain subject to regulatory rule-making and implementation, the effects of which are not yet known, including mandates requiring the Federal Reserve to establish compensation guidelines covering regulated financial institutions. In addition, further legislative and regulatory changes are still being considered, including the so called “bank tax” on institutions with greater than $50 billion in assets, such as CIT.

79

The provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act and any rules adopted to implement those provisions as well as any additional legislative or regulatory changes may impact the profitability of our business activities, require us to change certain of our business practices, materially affect our business model or affect retention of key personnel, require us to raise additional regulatory capital, including additional Tier 1 capital, or expose us to additional costs (including increased compliance costs). These and other changes may also require us to invest significant management attention and resources to make any necessary changes and may adversely affect our ability to conduct our business as previously conducted or our results of operations or financial condition.

Basel Committee on Banking Supervision

The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (the “Basel Committee”) provides a forum for bank supervisory authorities from over two dozen countries to cooperate on banking supervisory matters. The regulatory guidelines currently applicable to bank holding companies are based on the Capital Accord of the Basel Committee. We compute and report our capital ratios in accordance with the Basel I requirements for the purpose of assessing our capital adequacy. Bank regulators are phasing in revised regulatory capital guidelines based on the Revised Framework for the International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards issued by the Basel Committee (Basel II). CIT does not currently meet the thresholds for implementing Basel II.

On September 12, 2010 the Basel Committee announced higher global minimum capital standards (Basel III) to be phased in over the next several years. CIT will be subject to these new minimum standards, which will lead to significantly higher capital requirements, higher capital charges and more restrictive leverage and liquidity ratios for financial institutions in general. These new requirements will generally impose more restrictive eligibility requirements for Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital, including a minimum ratio of common equity to risk-based assets; more deductions from and adjustments to the common equity component of Tier 1 capital; increased capital charges for various assets and risk exposures; a more restrictive leverage ratio (Tier 1 capital to average quarterly assets) than currently applies to U.S. banks and bank holding companies; counter-cyclical measures in provisioning and restrictions on certain distributions such as dividends and discretionary bonus payments to the extent a bank or bank holding company does not maintain additional capital above the minimum requirements; and two new liquidity ratios designed to ensure that a bank or bank holding company has more highly liquid assets than expected net outflows in stressed conditions and access to more stable funding needed in stressed conditions.

(1)	Certain balances have been revised from previously reported amounts. See Note 2 – Prior Period Revisions for details.
(2)	The average balances presented are derived based on month end balances during the year. Tax exempt income was not significant in any of the years presented. Average rates are impacted by FSA accretion and amortization.
(3)	Investments are included in “Other Assets” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and do not include ‘retained interests in securitizations’ as revenues from these are part of “other income”. Average yields reflect average historical cost.
(4)	The rate presented is calculated net of average credit balances for factoring clients.
(5)	Non-accrual loans and related income are included in the respective categories.
(6)	Operating lease rental income is a significant source of revenue; therefore, we have presented the net revenues.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to use judgment in making estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. We consider accounting estimates relating to the following to be critical in applying our accounting policies:

• Assumptions and estimates recorded upon adoption of fresh start accounting

• Reserve for Credit Losses

• Impaired Loans

• Fair Value Determinations

• Lease Residual Values

• Liabilities and Tax Reserves

There have been no significant changes to the methodologies and processes used in developing estimates relating to these items from those described in our 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

INTERNAL CONTROLS

The Internal Controls Working Group is responsible for monitoring and improving internal controls and overseeing the internal controls attestation mandated by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“SARBOX”). The Committee is chaired by the Controller and includes the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Executive Vice President - Internal Audit and other senior executives in finance, legal, risk management and information technology. See Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASUREMENTS

The SEC adopted regulations that apply to public disclosure or release of material information that includes a non-GAAP financial measure. The accompanying Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk contain certain non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures are meant to provide additional information and insight regarding operating results and financial position of the business and in certain cases to provide financial information that is presented to rating agencies and other users of financial information. These measures are not in accordance with, or a substitute for, GAAP and may be different from or inconsistent with non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. See footnotes below the tables for additional explanation of non-GAAP measurements.

• adequacy of reserves for credit losses,

• risks inherent in changes in market interest rates and quality spreads,

• funding opportunities, deposit taking capabilities and borrowing costs,

• risks that the restructuring of the Company’s capital structure did not result in sufficient additional capital or improved liquidity,

Part Two—Other Information

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings

CIT is currently involved, and from time to time in the future may be involved, in a number of judicial, regulatory, and arbitration proceedings relating to matters that arise in connection with the conduct of its business. Some of these proceedings are described below. Based on currently available information, CIT believes that the results of these proceedings which are currently pending, taken together, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, but may be material to the Company’s operating results for any particular period, depending in part on its operating results for that period.

SECURITIES CLASS ACTION

In July and August 2008, two putative class action lawsuits were filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “New York District Court”) on behalf of CIT’s pre-reorganization stockholders against CIT, its former Chief Executive Officer and its former Chief Financial Officer. In August 2008, a putative class action lawsuit was filed in the New York District Court by a holder of CIT-PrZ equity units against CIT, its former CEO, former CFO and former Controller and members of its current and former Board of Directors. In May 2009, the Court consolidated these three shareholder actions into a single action and appointed Pensioenfonds Horeca & Catering as Lead Plaintiff to represent the proposed class, which consists of all acquirers of CIT common stock and PrZ preferred stock from December 12, 2006 through March 5, 2008, who allegedly were damaged, including acquirers of CIT-PrZ preferred stock pursuant to the October 17, 2007 offering of such preferred stock.

In July 2009, the Lead Plaintiff filed a consolidated amended complaint alleging violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“1934 Act”) and the Securities Act of 1933 (“1933 Act”). Specifically, it is alleged that the Company, its former CEO, former CFO, former Controller, and a former Vice Chairman violated Section 10(b) of the 1934 Act by allegedly making false and misleading statements and omissions regarding CIT’s subprime home lending and student lending businesses. The allegations relating to the Company’s student lending business are based upon the assertion that the Company failed to account in its financial statements or, in the case of the preferred stockholders, its registration statement and prospectus, for private loans to students of a helicopter pilot training school, which it is alleged were highly unlikely to be repaid and should have been written off. The allegations relating to the Company’s home lending business are based on the assertion that the Company failed to fully disclose the risks in the Company’s portfolio of subprime mortgage loans. The Lead Plaintiff also alleges that the Company, its former CEO, former CFO and former Controller and those current and former Directors of the Company who signed the registration statement in connection with the October 2007 CIT-PrZ preferred offering violated the 1933 Act by making false and misleading statements concerning the Company’s student lending business as described above.

Pursuant to a Notice of Dismissal filed on November 24, 2009, CIT Group Inc. was dismissed as a defendant from the consolidated securities action. On June 10, 2010, the Court denied the individual defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint. The action will continue as to the remaining defendants and CIT’s obligation to defend and indemnify such defendants continues. Plaintiffs seek, among other relief, unspecified damages and interest.

In February 2008, a helicopter pilot training school (the “Pilot School”) filed for bankruptcy and ceased operating. Student Loan Xpress, Inc. (“SLX”), a subsidiary of CIT engaged in the student lending business, had marketed and acquired private (non-government guaranteed) loans made to approximately 2,600 students of the Pilot School (the “Pilot School Student Loans”), totaling approximately $196.8 million in principal and accrued interest as of December 31, 2007. SLX ceased marketing and acquiring new Pilot School Student Loans in September 2007.

88

SLX voluntarily placed those students who were attending school at the time of the Pilot School’s closure “in grace” such that no payments under their loans have been required to be made and no interest on their loans has been accruing. Multiple lawsuits, including putative class action lawsuits and collective actions, have been filed against SLX and other lenders alleging, among other things, violations of state consumer protection laws.

In December 2008, SLX completed a confidential settlement of a collective action commenced by approximately 37 Pilot School students and some of their co-signers in Georgia.

SLX also reached a settlement agreement with a nationwide class of approximately 2,200 students who were in attendance at the Pilot School when it closed. The proposed settlement agreement provides for (i) discounts to students based on the number of certifications earned by such students in connection with their attendance at the pilot school, (which aggregate discount is projected to be approximately $130 million in debt and interest forgiveness); (ii) reduction in interest rates for certain students for up to 3%; (iii) payment of attorneys’ fees to class counsel; and (iv) service awards to the class representatives. In November 2009, the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida preliminarily approved the proposed settlement agreement. Objections to the settlement were filed with respect to fewer than 3% of the loans and opt-outs were received with respect to fewer than 5% of the loans. The Attorneys General of several states also engaged in a review of the impact of the Pilot School’s closure on the student borrowers and any possible role of SLX. SLX cooperated in the review and reached agreement with twelve out of fourteen Attorneys General, pursuant to which, among other things, such Attorneys General support the proposed settlement. The Court is expected to consider approval of the settlement in December 2010.

In February 2010, approximately 80 plaintiffs who had opted out of the proposed nationwide class settlement filed a collective action against SLX in Texas State Court. Among other claims, these plaintiffs allege violations of Texas’ Deceptive Trade Practices Act and aiding and abetting fraud. They seek to have the loans declared unenforceable and an award of actual damages, treble damages, punitive damages, and attorneys’ fees and costs. Discovery in the matter is ongoing.

The Company provided an allowance for credit losses in its pre-emergence financial statements for the estimate of loan forgiveness and a reserve for third party legal fees. Following emergence from bankruptcy, the allowance for credit losses was eliminated and the loans were recorded at estimated fair value in connection with the Company’s implementation of FSA. As a result of recording the loans at estimated fair value under FSA, the Company expects that it will have no additional loss with respect to the class settlement in the Florida District Court. In addition, the Company has fully accounted for the settlement in the Georgia collective action. Assuming the collective action in Texas settles within a range comparable to the other two lawsuits, the Company will have an immaterial or no additional loss on the loans which were recorded at estimated fair value under FSA.

VENDOR FINANCE BILLING AND INVOICING INVESTIGATION

In the second quarter of 2007, the office of the United States Attorney for the Central District of California requested that CIT produce the billing and invoicing histories for a portfolio of customer accounts that CIT purchased from a third-party vendor. The request was made in connection with an ongoing investigation being conducted by federal authorities into billing practices involving that portfolio. Certain state authorities, including California, have been conducting a parallel investigation. The investigations are being conducted under the Federal False Claims Act and

89

its state law equivalents. CIT is cooperating with these investigations, and substantial progress has been made towards a resolution of the investigations.

SNAP-ON ARBITRATION

On January 8, 2010, Snap-on Incorporated and Snap-on Credit LLC (“Snap-on”) filed a Demand for Arbitration alleging that CIT retained certain monies owed to Snap-on in connection with a joint venture between CIT and Snap-on that was terminated on July 16, 2009. Snap-on is alleging that CIT improperly underpaid Snap-on during the course of the joint venture, primarily related to the purchase by CIT of receivables originated and serviced by the joint venture, and is alleging damages of up to $115 million. On January 29, 2010, CIT filed its Answering Statement and Counterclaim, denying Snap-on’s allegations on the grounds that the claims are untimely, improperly initiated, or otherwise barred. CIT also alleges that Snap-on wrongfully withheld payment of proceeds due to CIT from the receivables serviced by Snap-on on behalf of CIT. CIT is claiming damages in excess of $110 million.

OTHER LITIGATION

In addition, there are various judicial, regulatory, and arbitration proceedings and government investigations in which CIT is currently involved and that have arisen in the ordinary course of business.
