Mr. Arledge will receive severance benefits consistent with his participation in The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation Executive Severance Plan (the “Executive Severance Plan”).
Additionally, in connection with the establishment of its executive compensation program for the 2016 performance year, on February 19, 2016, the Company amended the Executive Severance Plan to reaffirm that long-term incentive compensation is not included in severance calculations (other than time-vested equity compensation, which has historically been awarded as part of the annual incentive). The Executive Severance Plan is discussed in more detail in the Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement dated March 13, 2015.
A copy of the Company’s press release relating to Mitchell Harris succeeding Mr. Arledge as CEO of the Company’s Investment Management business is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
