ITEM 5.02
DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS.

On November 10, 2015, the Governance, Compensation and Nominating Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Comerica Incorporated (“Comerica”) approved a new form of senior executive long-term performance restricted stock ("SELTPP") unit award agreement and a new form of non-qualified stock option agreement that will be used for future grants to executive officers of SELTPP units and non-qualified stock options, respectively. The Committee made certain technical updates to these award agreements, including (1) revisions to the SELTPP unit award agreement related to changes to the Financial Accounting Standards Board's concept of "extraordinary items" and (2) revisions to the non-qualified stock option agreement to treat options granted in the calendar year of retirement the same way that other options are treated in the case of retirement, which will ease administration of Comerica's long-term incentive plan.

The new form of SELTPP unit award agreement and new form of non-qualified stock option agreement are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 , respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference. The description in this Current Report on Form 8-K of the new forms of agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the attached exhibits.
