SPECIAL RETENTION, SEPARATION AND NON-COMPETE AGREEMENT AND RELEASE

Exhibit 10.10.1

SPECIAL RETENTION, SEPARATION AND NON-COMPETE AGREEMENT AND RELEASE

This Special Retention, Separation and Non-Compete Agreement and Release (“Agreement”) is made by and between ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (“you” or “your”) and Capital One Financial Corporation, including any of its subsidiaries (referred to collectively as “Capital One”) effective as of October 15, 2012.

Reason for Agreement

You and Capital One desire to set forth the final terms relating to your continued employment with Capital One, your role with Capital One during that time, and your separation therefrom. In exchange for your execution of this Agreement and your agreement to execute a “Supplemental General Release” after your Termination Date (as defined below) (which form of agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit A), Capital One will continue your employment through the Termination Date, subject to the terms below, and will provide severance payments and benefits and the Non-Compete Consideration as described herein. Your separation from service with Capital One will be effective on the Termination Date.

Your Provision of Services to Capital One

You shall continue as Capital One’s Chief Risk Officer through June 1, 2013 and a non-executive senior advisor (“Senior Advisor”) from such date through April 1, 2014. The period during which you serve as a Senior Advisor is referred to herein as the “Advisory Period”. Capital One reserves the right to remove you as Chief Risk Officer prior to June 1, 2013, in Capital One’s sole discretion. For the avoidance of doubt, Capital One shall not terminate your employment without Cause (as defined in the Change of Control Employment Agreement between you and Capital One dated as of March 1, 2010 (the “Change in Control Agreement”)). Your employment with Capital One shall end on the earliest of (i) April 1, 2014, (ii) your resignation, (iii) when Capital One terminates your employment for Cause, or (iv) upon your death or your Disability (as defined in the Change in Control Agreement) (the date of your termination, the “Termination Date”).

During the Advisory Period, you agree that you shall make yourself available for consultation with Capital One’s chief executive officer (“CEO”), chief risk officer (“CRO”), and such other individuals as directed by the CEO, the CRO or others per the CEO or the CRO’s request, to provide advice and counsel. During the Advisory Period, (i) it is anticipated that you will provide services to Capital One at a rate of no less than fifty percent (50%) of the average level of bona fide services you performed for Capital One over the 36-month period immediately preceding the commencement of the Advisory Period, and (ii) you will not accept employment with or otherwise provide services to any other person or entity during the Advisory Period unless otherwise agreed in writing by the CEO. You will not be required to be at Capital One’s offices to provide the Advisory Services except when deemed reasonably necessary by the CEO or the CRO.

Consideration for Signing this Agreement and Exhibit A

If you agree to the terms set forth in this Agreement, specifically, but without limitation, your agreement to the provisions under “General Release of Claims”, “Non-Solicitation of Employees” and “Non-Compete”, Capital One will continue your employment from the date hereof through the Termination Date as described above. You will be entitled to continue to receive standard compensation items (cash salary, RSU salary, equity grants, etc.) and employee benefits consistent with compensation and benefit programs offered to Executive Committee members through the Termination Date. Your salary (including salary RSU grants) through the Termination Date shall be no less than the value of your current salary. Employee benefits for which you shall be entitled to participate through the Termination Date include, but are not limited to, use of a company car, annual health screenings, health insurance and participation in retirement plans (i.e., the Associate Savings Plan and the Voluntary Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan) pursuant to the terms of such plans and programs.

In addition, your equity grants for the 2012 and 2013 performance years, to be granted in 2013 and 2014, will be awarded pursuant to the terms of Capital One’s compensation program in effect for Executive Committee members at the applicable time, subject to the Termination Date not occurring before the

applicable date of grant. Your total target equity award amounts will be no less than the target amounts previously communicated to you in your compensation statement for 2012. The actual awards shall be determined by Capital One’s Board of Directors or Compensation Committee in its discretion consistent with Capital One’s compensation programs applicable to Executive Committee members. Equity awards will continue to vest in accordance with their terms and unless the terms of an award provide otherwise, any unvested equity awards will be forfeited on the Termination Date. Any vested equity awards will pay out according to their terms.

Subject to your eligibility, if you execute the Supplemental General Release after your termination of employment from Capital One (but within the time specified in the Supplemental General Release), you shall receive the applicable severance and benefits set forth in the Capital One Financial Corporation Executive Severance Plan (the “Severance Plan”), pursuant to the terms of the Severance Plan in place on the date you execute this Agreement (estimated to be approximately $1,283,850 million of cash severance, the “Release of Claims Payment”).

Attorneys’ Fees

Capital One will reimburse, or directly pay, reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by you in connection with the drafting and negotiation of this Agreement in the amount up to $25,000.

General Release of Claims

In consideration of the payments and other benefits provided for in this Agreement, which you agree is good, valuable, adequate and sufficient consideration under this Agreement, you acknowledge and agree that, you and your agents, representatives, and heirs, do hereby fully release (i.e., give up) and forever discharge Capital One and its parent, subsidiary and affiliated corporations, organizations and entities, including without limitation CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION, CAPITAL ONE SERVICES, INC., CAPITAL ONE SERVICES, LLC, CAPITAL ONE, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, CAPITAL ONE AUTO FINANCE, INC., CAPITAL ONE BANK (USA), NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, CHEVY CHASE BANK, F.S.B. and each of them, and all of their respective past, present and future affiliates, partners, joint ventures, stockholders, predecessors, successors, assigns, insurers, officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, attorneys and independent contractors of all such released corporations, organizations and entities, as well as their employee benefit plans, and the trustees, administrators, fiduciaries and insurers of such plans (collectively, the “Released Parties”), and each of them, jointly and severally, from any and all claims, causes of action, charges, suits, controversies, and demands of any kind, whether known or unknown, whether for injunctive relief, back pay, fringe benefits, reinstatement, reemployment, or compensatory, punitive or any other kind of damages, which you ever have had in the past or presently have against the Released Parties through the date of this Agreement, arising from or relating to your employment with Capital One or the termination of that employment or any circumstances related thereto.

Types of Claims Waived

Such claims, causes of action, charges or similar actions include but are not limited to claims arising under or relating to employment, employment contracts, employee benefits or purported employment discrimination or violations of civil rights of whatever kind or nature, including without limitation all claims arising under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Civil Rights Acts of 1866 and/or 1871, 42 U.S.C. Section 1981, the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (“ADEA”), the Family Medical Leave Act, Executive Order 11246, the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, any state human rights act, or any other applicable federal, state or local employment statute, law or ordinance. Except as provided herein, all claims for incentive compensation awards under any Capital One plan or payroll practice, along with any claims under any state wage and hour laws, are specifically subject to this release of claims. You further agree that you will not file or permit to be filed, initiated or prosecuted on your behalf any such claim this Agreement purports to waive.

Claims Not Waived

Notwithstanding the preceding provision or any other provision of the Agreement, your agreement to the provisions under “General Release of Claims” is not intended to prohibit you from bringing an action to challenge the validity of your release of claims under the ADEA.

This Agreement is not intended to interfere with your right to file a charge with an administrative agency in connection with any claim you believe you may have against any of the Released Parties. However, by executing this Agreement, you hereby waive the right to recover, and agree not to seek any damages, remedies or other relief for yourself personally in any proceeding you may bring before such agency or in any proceeding brought by such agency on your behalf. This Agreement is also not intended to apply to claims under ERISA Section 502(a)(1)(B) for benefits that are vested and accrued (other than claims for severance and severance-related benefits) under any qualified employee benefit plan of Capital One pursuant to the terms of any such plan or to claims under any other compensation or employee benefit plan of Capital One for accrued and vested benefits pursuant to the terms of any such plan.

Further, you understand that you are not releasing your rights under this Agreement, that any claims which cannot be lawfully waived are excluded from this Agreement and that by executing this Agreement you are not waiving any such claims.

Likewise, you are not releasing any rights or claims that may arise after the date on which you sign this Agreement. In addition, while this Agreement requires you to waive any and all claims against Capital One arising under workers’ compensation laws (e.g., claims of retaliation for filing a workers’ compensation claim), it is not intended to prohibit you from filing in good faith for and from receiving any workers’ compensation benefits from Capital One’s workers’ compensation carrier for compensable injuries incurred during your employment. Accordingly, pursuit of any such workers’ compensation benefits with Capital One’s workers’ compensation carrier will not be considered a violation of this Agreement.

This Supplemental Release is also not intended to apply to claims under ERISA Section 502(a)(1)(B) for benefits that are vested and accrued (other than claims for severance and severance-related benefits) under any qualified employee benefit plan of Capital One pursuant to the terms of any such plan or to claims under any other compensation or employee benefit plan of Capital One for accrued and vested benefits pursuant to the terms of any such plan.

Further, you understand that you are not releasing your rights under this Supplemental Release, that any claims which cannot be lawfully waived are excluded from this Supplemental Release and that by executing this Supplemental Release you are not waiving any such claims. In addition, you are not releasing any rights you may have to indemnification under applicable corporate law, under the by-laws or certificate of incorporation of Capital One or any of its affiliates or as an insured under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy now or previously in force, or any rights you may have under Capital One’s equity award plans or rights as a stockholder of Capital One.

Likewise, you are not releasing any rights or claims that may arise after the date on which you sign this Supplemental Release. In addition, while this Supplemental Release requires you to waive any and all claims against Capital One arising under workers’ compensation laws (e.g., claims of retaliation for filing a workers’ compensation claim), it is not intended to prohibit you from filing in good faith for and from receiving any workers’ compensation benefits from Capital One’s workers’ compensation carrier for compensable injuries incurred during your employment. Accordingly, pursuit of any such workers’ compensation benefits with Capital One’s workers’ compensation carrier will not be considered a violation of this Supplemental Release.

Exhibit B

NON-COMPETITION AGREEMENT

This Non-Compete Agreement (“Agreement”) is made by and between ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (“You” or “Your”) and Capital One Financial Corporation, including any of its subsidiaries (referred to collectively as “Capital One”) effective as of October 15, 2012. This Agreement supersedes the current Non-Competition Agreement between you and Capital One, dated as of January 1, 2009 and amended as of March 1, 2010 (the “Prior NCA”), which shall no longer be in effect.

1. Legitimate Business Interest. You have been employed in a senior leadership role at Capital One since 1996, including service as Chief Credit Officer from October 2002 through June 2006, and Chief Risk Officer since June 2006. You acknowledge and agree that you have had access to Capital One’s Trade Secrets and other Confidential Information (as those terms are defined in the Confidentiality, Work Product and Non-Solicitation of Employee Agreement effective as of November 10, 2008 (the “CWP Agreement”)), and have developed relationships with Capital One’s customers and business partners. Most significantly, you acknowledge and agree that, as Chief Risk Officer, you are a Named Executive Officer responsible for overseeing, among other things, Capital One’s credit, compliance, operational and enterprise risk management functions, and you have had access to some of the most sensitive and business critical Trade Secrets and Confidential Information that Capital One possesses, including information relating to general business strategies and credit risk models and related risk management and business strategies, that would cause immediate, substantial and irreparable harm to Capital One if disclosed to or used on behalf of a competitor.

2. Non-Compete Consideration. In consideration for your undertakings hereunder, Capital One shall provide you the following payments and benefits (the “Non-Compete Consideration”):

(a) Capital One will pay you $1,426,500, which is consistent with the penultimate sentence of paragraph 2(a) of the Prior NCA (the “Initial NCA Payment”), as modified to comply with Section 409A of the Code (i.e., with (i) an amount equal to the two times the limitation in effect under section 401(a)(17) of the Internal Revenue Code as in effect on the Termination Date, payable within 30 days following the second anniversary of the Termination Date and (ii) the balance paid to you six (6) months and one day following the Termination Date). In addition, Capital One shall pay you $5.3 million in 36 equal monthly installments commencing in the month following the second anniversary of the Termination Date (the “Additional NCA Payment”). In the event of your death during the Non-Competition Period, your designated beneficiary (which shall be your then-current spouse if you have not designated a beneficiary in writing) shall be entitled to receive any unpaid payments under this paragraph, which shall be paid in a lump sum within 60 days after your death.

(b) In the event you elect “COBRA” coverage, Capital One will assume the cost of the employer’s portion of the monthly premium and the 2% COBRA administrative fee for each month you are enrolled through the end of the eighteenth month following the Termination Date (the “COBRA Period”), and you will pay the remaining balance of the COBRA premium directly to the COBRA administrator. Should you become covered under another party’s health insurance plan between your Termination Date and the end of the COBRA Period, such payments by Capital One shall immediately be terminated. You agree to notify Capital One immediately of the date that you become eligible to receive health insurance coverage from another party. In addition, if you remain eligible for COBRA through the end of the eighteen (18) month period following your Termination Date or if you die before the end of such period while still eligible for COBRA, Capital One will permit you or your surviving spouse to continue to purchase health coverage on the same basis as COBRA enrollees until the fifth anniversary of your Termination Date (and your surviving spouse to continue such coverage through such fifth anniversary if you die before such anniversary).

3. Non-Competition. For a period of five (5) years following your Termination Date (the “Non-Competition Period”), you agree that you will not serve as an employee, officer, director, principal, partner or agent for, or provide any form of consulting or advisory services to, any of the entities listed on Schedule 1, including their affiliates, subsidiaries, or successors (the “Strictly Prohibited Entities” or “SPEs”). You also agree that during the Non-Competition Period, you will not serve as an employee, officer, director, principal, partner or agent for, or provide any form of consulting or advisory service to, any entity, including its subsidiaries or affiliates, that purchases an entity or substantially all of the consumer financial services assets within the United States, United Kingdom, or Canada, of an entity listed on Schedule 1 (an “Acquisition Event”) if the acquiring entity is substituted for the selling entity as

described in the following sentence. Under an Acquisition Event, Capital One shall decide, in its sole discretion, whether the acquiring entity, including its subsidiaries or affiliates, shall be substituted for the selling entity and included on the list of Strictly Prohibited Entities. In the event you are already employed at an acquiring entity prior to an Acquisition Event, you may continue in your existing role so long as you do not engage in activities otherwise prohibited under this Agreement, including refraining from performing any services related to the acquired SPE entity or SPE assets. In addition, during the Non-Competition Period, you agree that, with the exception of the Permitted Services, you will not provide services (whether as an officer, employee, consultant or otherwise) in the United States, United Kingdom or Canada to any person or entity relating to consumer financial products or services or relating to small business lending (including, without limitation, small business credit card lending), to include, without limitation, services relating to business strategy or credit strategy (which includes, without limitation, credit modeling, analytics or techniques for the purpose of customer selection, underwriting, acquisition or management (collectively “Credit Strategy”)). You may, however, provide services unrelated to small business lending or consumer financial products or services to entities other than the Strictly Prohibited Entities.

Provided that you do not use or disclose any of Capital One’s Trade Secrets or Confidential Information, you may also engage in the following activities for any entity other than any of the Strictly Prohibited Entities:

(1) Consulting in the area of risk management processes or approaches, governance approaches, risk reporting, and risk policies and procedures. This consulting may include advising on (a) general processes and approaches to govern and establish loan loss allowances and general approaches for forecasting credit losses, (b) stress testing including general approaches for modeling revenues and losses, (c) the determination of capital levels and the allocation of capital, and (d) risk identification and supporting assessments; notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will such consulting involve advising on Credit Strategy;

(2) Consulting regarding student lending for a non-Strictly Prohibited Entity or working in any capacity for a non-Strictly Prohibited Entity affiliated student lending company;

(3) Serving as a director on the board of an entity that is not a Strictly Prohibited Entity after the second anniversary of the Termination Date; or

(4) Providing executive coaching services to any executive that does not work for a Strictly Prohibited Entity as long as such coaching does not involve topics prohibited under this Agreement.

(collectively the “Permitted Services”).

In addition, you will be allowed to engage in the following specified non-competitive activities: (1) providing government service or government consulting; and (2) providing services to or working for a merchant acquirer that is not affiliated with a Strictly Prohibited Entity, an auto dealer, a trade association or a professional association.

Subject to the process set forth below, you may request permission from Capital One to work for or provide services to (a) a non-financial services company that is engaged incidentally in consumer financial services, or (b) a third-party service provider that provides services, other than consulting or advisory services, to a Strictly Prohibited Entity or to a non-Strictly Prohibited Entity financial institution that is engaged in consumer financial services. You shall notify Capital One prior to accepting employment with or otherwise providing services to such an entity and provide a description of the services to be provided. Capital One, in its sole discretion and in good faith, shall determine within fifteen (15) business days of notification whether such services are permissible and will notify you of the determination and rationale in writing. Permission shall not be unreasonably withheld and shall be based on one or more of the following reasons (x) the services compete with or seek to displace services that Capital One provides or reasonably anticipates providing, (y) the services include assisting providers of consumer or small business-related financial services with credit strategy, credit modeling, credit scoring, credit analytics, or customer selection, acquisition, or management strategies, analytics or techniques, or (z) the services could otherwise cause competitive harm to Capital One. Granting permission to allow you to provide such services will not impact the Non-Compete Consideration to be paid.

4. Trade Secrets and Confidential Information. You agree that, other than on behalf of Capital One in the course of your employment through your Termination Date, you will not use or disclose any Capital One Trade Secrets or Confidential Information without the express written permission of Capital One, and you remain bound by the CWP Agreement. In addition, you agree that you will return all Capital One property on or before the Termination Date, or earlier upon request, and will retain no copies thereof except with the prior written consent of Capital One’s Chief Executive Officer.

5. Compliance Information and Review. During the Non-Competition Period, you agree to notify Capital One in writing of the identity of any employer or business opportunity on whose behalf you intend to perform services, together with a brief description of your intended functions, prior to accepting such employment or business opportunity. If during the Non-Competition Period, Capital One has reason to believe in good faith that you are not in compliance with Exhibit B, it may request information from you to permit it to determine whether you are otherwise in compliance with this Exhibit B. You agree to provide a response to such a request within fifteen (15) business days after receiving such a request or such longer period as the parties may agree.

6. Irreparable Harm; Injunctive Relief. You acknowledge and agree that your violation of any of the post-employment restrictions in this Exhibit B will cause immediate, substantial and irreparable harm to Capital One which cannot be adequately redressed by monetary damages alone. In the event of your violation or threatened violation of any of the post-employment restrictions in this Exhibit B, you agree that Capital One, without limiting any other legal or equitable remedies available to it, shall be entitled to seek equitable relief, including temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief, return of property, and specific performance, from any court of competent jurisdiction.

7. Acknowledgements. You acknowledge and agree that the non-competition restrictions in Section 3 are narrowly tailored, reasonable and necessary for the protection of Capital One’s legitimate business interests and that the restrictions in Section 3 will not restrict your ability to earn a livelihood following the Termination Date. You acknowledge and agree that you have been represented by sophisticated commercial counsel, and have meaningfully participated, in the negotiation and drafting of this Exhibit B, including these post-employment restrictions. Both parties acknowledge that they may not waive the Non-Compete restriction in paragraph 3 in full or the Non-Compete Consideration without mutual consent.

8. Prior Agreements. You acknowledge that this Exhibit B supersedes and replaces in its entirety the Non-Competition Agreement between you and Capital One effective as of January 1, 2009, as amended by the First Amendment to the Non-Competition Agreement effective as of March 1, 2010 (the “Prior NCA”). You further acknowledge that the CWP Agreement remains in effect pursuant to its terms, as modified by the “Non-Solicitation of Employees” section of the main body of the Agreement.

9. Court’s Right to Modify Restriction. The parties agree that if at the time enforcement is sought, a court of competent jurisdiction adjudges any terms of any provision of this Exhibit B to be void, invalid, or unenforceable, including without limitation portions of Section 3 above, such court may modify or reform such provision so that it is enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, or if such modification or reformation is not possible, shall sever the unenforceable portion of the provision, and enforce the remaining provisions of the Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that Section 3 above is void, invalid, or unenforceable, Capital One shall have no obligation to pay the Non-Compete Consideration during any period in which the court determines that Section 3 above shall not be in effect.

10. Successors and Assigns. The rights and obligations under this Exhibit B are personal to you and cannot be assigned to any party. This Exhibit B and all promises made herein shall survive the execution of this Exhibit B and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Capital One’s successors and assigns without further consent.

11. Choice of Law. This Exhibit B shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware (the state of incorporation of Capital One), without regard to its principles of conflicts of law.

12. Capitalized Terms. Capitalized terms not specifically defined in this Exhibit B have the meanings specified in the main body of the Agreement.

13. Entire Agreement; Integration. This Exhibit B does not supersede, but rather supplements, any written policies of Capital One generally applicable to employees of Capital One respecting the treatment of Confidential Information and Work Product applicable to you. The CWP Agreement shall remain in effect pursuant to its terms as modified by the “Non-Solicitation of Employees” section of the main body of the Agreement. This Exhibit B may be modified only by a writing signed by the party to be bound.
