Corporation Law (the &#147;DGCL&#148;) provides for the indemnification of officers and directors of corporations in terms sufficiently broad to permit the indemnification of the officers and directors of the Company from liabilities (including
reimbursement of expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act under certain circumstances. Section&nbsp;102(b)(7) of the DGCL permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation shall not be
personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i)&nbsp;for any breach of the director&#146;s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders,
(ii)&nbsp;for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii)&nbsp;in respect of certain unlawful dividend payments or stock redemptions or repurchases, or (iv)&nbsp;for any
transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Article XI of the Company&#146;s Restated Certificate of
Incorporation, as amended, and Section&nbsp;6.6 of the Company&#146;s Amended and Restated Bylaws (the &#147;bylaws&#148;), as amended, provide, in general, for mandatory indemnification of directors and officers to the extent permitted by law,
against liability incurred by them in proceedings instituted or threatened against them by third parties, or by or on behalf of the Company itself, relating to the manner in which they performed their duties unless they have been guilty of willful
misconduct or of a knowing violation of the criminal law. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As permitted by the DGCL, Article XI of the Company&#146;s Restated Certificate
of Incorporation provides that, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL or decisional law, no director shall be personally liable to the Company or to its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of his or her fiduciary duty as a director.
The effect of this provision in the Restated Certificate of Incorporation is to eliminate the rights of the Company and its stockholders (through stockholders&#146; derivative suits on behalf of the Company) to recover monetary damages against a
director for breach of fiduciary duty as a director thereof (including breaches resulting from negligent or grossly negligent behavior) except in the situations described in clauses (i)-(iv), inclusive, above. These provisions will not alter the
liability of directors under federal securities laws. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company&#146;s bylaws provide that the Company shall indemnify any person who

such action, suit or proceeding, provided that the Company shall indemnify such person in connection with any such action, suit or proceeding initiated by such person only if authorized by the Board of Directors of the Company or brought to enforce
certain indemnification rights. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The bylaws also provide that indemnification provided for in the bylaws shall not be deemed exclusive of

purchase and maintain insurance to protect itself and any such person against any such expenses, liability and loss, whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify such person against such expenses, liability or loss under the DGCL.

INTRODUCTION
This Registration Statement on Form S-8 is filed by Capital One Financial Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Registrant" or
the "Company"), relating to an additional 15,000,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock, par value $0.01 (the "Common Stock"), to be issued under the Capital One Financial Corporation 2004 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended
and restated (the "2004 Plan"). The Company previously filed a Form S-8 (File No. 333-117920) registering 8,000,000 shares of Common Stock under the 2004 Plan on August 4, 2004, a Form S-8 (File No. 333-136281) registering
an additional 12,000,000 shares of Common Stock under the 2004 Plan on August 3, 2006 and a Form S-8 (File No. 333-158664) registering an additional 20,000,000 shares of Common Stock under the 2004 Plan on April 20, 2009 (together,
the "Prior Registration Statement").
As discussed more fully in the Company's definitive proxy materials for the
Company's 2014 Annual Stockholder Meeting, the 15,000,000 shares of Common Stock registered on this Form S-8 will be added to the reserve of shares available under the 2004 Plan pursuant to the amendment and restatement thereof.
This Registration Statement relates to securities of the same class as that to which the Prior Registration Statement relates, and is
submitted in accordance with General Instruction E to Form S-8 regarding Registration of Additional Securities. Pursuant to Instruction E of Form S-8, the contents of the Prior Registration Statement are incorporated herein by reference and made
part of this Registration Statement, except as amended hereby.
PART II
INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
Item 3.
Incorporation of Documents by Reference
The following documents, which have previously
been filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), are incorporated by reference herein and shall be deemed
to be a part hereof:
(1) The Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, filed with the
Commission on February 27, 2014;
(2) The Company's Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on February 3,
2014, March 26, 2014 and April 24, 2014; and
(3) The Description of the Company's Common Stock on amendment no. 1 to Form
8-A, dated October 17, 1994.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company is not incorporating any document or information deemed to
have been furnished and not filed in accordance with the Commission's rules.
In addition, all documents filed by the Company
pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement which indicates that all securities offered hereby have been sold or which deregisters all such
securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement and made part hereof from their respective dates of filing (such documents, and the documents listed above,
being hereinafter referred to as "Incorporated Documents"); provided, however, that the documents listed above or subsequently filed by the Company pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14
and 15(d) of the Exchange Act in each year during which the offering made by this Registration Statement is in effect prior to the filing with the Commission of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K covering such year shall cease to be
Incorporated Documents or be incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement from and after the filing of such Annual Report. The Company's Exchange Act file number with the Commission is 001-13300.
Any statement contained in an Incorporated Document shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration Statement
to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any other subsequently filed Incorporated Document modifies or supersedes such statement. Any statement contained herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this
Registration Statement to the extent that a statement contained in any subsequently filed Incorporated Document modifies or supersedes such statement. Any such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or
superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.
Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Section 145 of the Delaware General
Corporation Law (the "DGCL") provides for the indemnification of officers and directors of corporations in terms sufficiently broad to permit the indemnification of the officers and directors of the Company from liabilities (including
reimbursement of expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act under certain circumstances. Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation shall not be
personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders,
(ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) in respect of certain unlawful dividend payments or stock redemptions or repurchases, or (iv) for any
transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
Article XI of the Company's Restated Certificate of
Incorporation, as amended, and Section 6.6 of the Company's Amended and Restated Bylaws (the "bylaws"), as amended, provide, in general, for mandatory indemnification of directors and officers to the extent permitted by law,
against liability incurred by them in proceedings instituted or threatened against them by third parties, or by or on behalf of the Company itself, relating to the manner in which they performed their duties unless they have been guilty of willful
misconduct or of a knowing violation of the criminal law.
As permitted by the DGCL, Article XI of the Company's Restated Certificate
of Incorporation provides that, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL or decisional law, no director shall be personally liable to the Company or to its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of his or her fiduciary duty as a director.
The effect of this provision in the Restated Certificate of Incorporation is to eliminate the rights of the Company and its stockholders (through stockholders' derivative suits on behalf of the Company) to recover monetary damages against a
director for breach of fiduciary duty as a director thereof (including breaches resulting from negligent or grossly negligent behavior) except in the situations described in clauses (i)-(iv), inclusive, above. These provisions will not alter the
liability of directors under federal securities laws.
The Company's bylaws provide that the Company shall indemnify any person who
was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or
proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative by reason of the fact that such person is or was, at any time during which the bylaw is in effect (whether or not such person
continues to serve in such capacity at the time any indemnification or advancement of expenses pursuant hereto is sought or at the time any proceeding relating thereto exists or is brought), a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or
is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of any other corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including an employee benefit plan maintained or sponsored by the
Company), against all expenses, liability and loss (including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes and penalties, and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such person in connection with
such action, suit or proceeding, provided that the Company shall indemnify such person in connection with any such action, suit or proceeding initiated by such person only if authorized by the Board of Directors of the Company or brought to enforce
certain indemnification rights.
The bylaws also provide that indemnification provided for in the bylaws shall not be deemed exclusive of
any other rights to which the indemnified party may be entitled; that any right of indemnification or protection provided under the bylaws shall not be adversely affected by any amendment or modification of the bylaws; and that the Company may
purchase and maintain insurance to protect itself and any such person against any such expenses, liability and loss, whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify such person against such expenses, liability or loss under the DGCL.
In addition to the above, the Company may enter into one or more agreements with any person to provide for indemnification greater or
different than that which is provided for in the Restated Certificate of Incorporation or the bylaws.
