ITEM 4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.

ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.

ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
Under Ohio law, Ohio corporations are authorized to indemnify directors,
officers, employees, and agents ("Covered Persons") within prescribed
limits and must indemnify them under certain circumstances. Ohio law
permits a corporation to indemnify a Covered Person against expenses,
judgments, fines, and settlements reasonably incurred in a nonderivative
suit, and against expenses reasonably incurred in a derivative suit, if the
Covered Person acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to
be in or not opposed to the best interest of the corporation. In addition,
Ohio law permits a corporation to indemnify a Covered Person in a criminal
action or proceeding, other than in a derivative suit, if the person had no
reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
Unless ordered by a court, no indemnification of expenses in a derivative
suit is authorized by Ohio law if the Covered Person is ultimately adjudged
to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his or her
duty to the corporation. However, if a Covered Person is successful on the
merits or in defense on a matter, indemnification of expenses is mandatory.
In addition, under Ohio law, a Director's expenses shall be paid by the
corporation as they are incurred, provided the Director agrees to
reasonably cooperate with the corporation and to repay the amounts advanced
if it is proved by clear and convincing evidence that the Director's action
or failure to act was done with reckless disregard for the best interests
of the corporation.
Under Ohio law, a Director is not liable for monetary damages unless it is
proved by clear and convincing evidence that the Director's action or
failure to act was undertaken with deliberate intent to cause injury to the
corporation or with reckless disregard for the best interests of the
corporation. There is, however, no comparable provision limiting the
liability of officers, employees, or agents of a corporation. The statutory
right to indemnification is not exclusive in Ohio, and is in addition to
any other rights granted to persons seeking indemnification.
The Amended and Restated Regulations of KeyCorp provide that KeyCorp shall
indemnify to the fullest extent permitted by the Ohio General Corporation
Law any person made or threatened to be made a party to any action, suit,
or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative,
by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer, or
employee of KeyCorp or of any other bank, corporation, partnership, trust,
or other enterprise for which he or she was serving as a director, officer,
or employee at the request of KeyCorp.
<PAGE> 5
KeyCorp is a party to Employment Agreements with certain of its executive
officers and is also a party to Change of Control Agreements with certain
executive officers. Generally, pursuant to the Employment Agreements and,
after a change of control (as defined), pursuant to each Change of Control
Agreement, KeyCorp has agreed to (i) indemnify the executive officer, to
the full extent permitted or authorized by the Ohio General Corporation
Law, if the executive officer is made or threatened to be made a party to
any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding by reason
of the executive officer's serving as an employee, officer, or director of
KeyCorp and/or any of its subsidiaries or is or was serving at the request
of KeyCorp or any of its subsidiaries as a director, trustee, officer, or
employee of a bank, corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise, and (ii) advance expenses incurred by the executive officer in
defending any action, suit, or proceeding commenced or threatened for any
action or failure to act as an employee, officer, or director of KeyCorp or
any of its subsidiaries. The expenses so advanced to officers and employees
of KeyCorp shall be repaid if it is ultimately determined that such
executive officer is not entitled to be indemnified. With respect to
Directors of KeyCorp, the amount of expenses paid as incurred shall be
repaid if it is determined that action or failure to act involved an act or
omission undertaken with deliberate intent to cause injury or reckless
disregard for the best interests of KeyCorp or any of its subsidiaries.
The indemnification provided under the Employment Agreements and each of
the Change of Control Agreements shall continue after the executive officer
has ceased to be an executive officer, and shall inure to the benefit of
the heirs, executors, and administrators of the executive officer.
Under the terms of directors' and officers' liability and reimbursement
insurance policy, directors and officers of KeyCorp are insured against
certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities
Act.
ITEM 7. EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED.
Not applicable.
ITEM 8. EXHIBITS.
The Exhibits to this Registration Statement are listed in the Exhibit Index
on page 8, and are incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS.
(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement;
<PAGE> 6
(i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act;
(ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising
after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the
most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually
or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the
information set forth in the Registration Statement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume
of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities
offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any
deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum
offering range may be reflected in the form of a prospectus filed
with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the
changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent
change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the
"Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective
Registration Statement;
(iii) to include any material information with respect to the
plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration
Statement or any material change to such information in the
Registration Statement;
provided, however, that clauses (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if
the registration statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8, and the information
required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those clauses is
contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by KeyCorp
pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are
incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain
unsold at the termination of the offering.
(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of
KeyCorp's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange
Act that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall
be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities
offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of
KeyCorp pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, KeyCorp has
been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such
liabilities (other than the payment by KeyCorp of expenses incurred or paid
by a director, officer, or controlling person of KeyCorp in the successful
defense of any action, suit, or proceeding) is asserted by such director,
officer, or
<PAGE> 7
controlling person in connection with the securities being registered,
KeyCorp will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been
settled by the controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by
the final adjudication of such issue.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act, KeyCorp certifies that
it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements
for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to
be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in
the City of Cleveland, State of Ohio, on this 19th day of January, 1999.
