==Huntington Preferred Capital== Huntington Bancshares also operates Huntington Preferred Capital, a real estate investment trust (REIT). It was organized under Ohio law in 1992 and designated a REIT in 1998. Four related parties own HPCI's common stock: Huntington Capital Financing LLC; Huntington Preferred Capital II, Inc.; Huntington Preferred Capital Holdings, Inc.; and Huntington Bancshares Incorporated. All these entities are tied via ownership and/or interlocking directorships to Huntington Bancshares, directly or through Huntington National Bank. In addition to the common stock, Huntington Preferred Capital also issued two million shares of preferred stock, paying a quarterly cash dividend of $0.4925 per share. This stock is largely held by the same companies as the common stock, but a small fraction of the available shares are sold on the open market. Huntington Preferred Capital had one subsidiary, HPCLI, Inc., a taxable REIT subsidiary formed in 2001 for the purpose of holding certain assets (primarily leasehold improvements). On December 31, 2007, Huntington Preferred Capital paid common stock dividends consisting of cash and the stock of HPCLI to its common stock shareholders. After the stock dividend was paid, HPCLI became a wholly owned subsidiary of Huntington Preferred Capital Holdings, which holds all the shares of HPCLI.<ref>{{cite web| url=https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1140657/000095015207002484/l25321ae10vk.htm| title=Huntington Preferred Capital, Inc. 2017 Form 10-K Annual Report| website=U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission| access-date=April 28, 2018| archive-date=April 29, 2018| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180429024228/https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1140657/000095015207002484/l25321ae10vk.htm| url-status=live}}</ref>
