SUNTRUST BANKS, INC.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
based on the number of additional shares and the market value of the shares on date of delivery with an
offset to additional paid in capital. Since, under the terms of the contract SunTrust will not issue
additional common shares, there will be no additional impact on diluted shares until the transaction is
settled in March 2007.

follows:

The Company’s income from international operations, before provision for income taxes, was not
significant. Additionally, the tax effect of unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale,
unrealized gains and losses on certain derivative financial instruments, and other comprehensive income
related to certain employee benefit plans were recorded in other comprehensive income and had no
effect on income tax expense (see Note 23 “Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income,” to the
Consolidated Financial Statements.)
A reconciliation of the expected income tax expense at the statutory federal income tax rate of 35% to
the Company’s actual income tax expense and effective tax rate for the past three years is as follows:
