Item 9B. OTHER INFORMATION

(a) On Feb. 23, 2024, the Human Resources and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation (the “Corporation”) amended and restated the Executive Severance Plan (the “ESP”), effective March 1, 2024. The ESP maintains the same severance components and

formula. Updates are to the “Pro-Rata Annual Incentive Award” that is provided under the ESP for the year of termination that is revised to include eligibility for a full pro-rated amount of such award (cash and deferred), to align the ESP’s definition of “Cause” with the definition for such term in the participant’s most recently granted equity award agreement, and to effectuate certain other changes. The foregoing summary of the amendments is qualified in its entirety by reference to the amended and restated ESP, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.30 and incorporated herein by reference.

(b) Certain of our officers or directors have made elections to participate in, and are participating in, our dividend reinvestment plan, employee stock purchase plan and 401(k) plan, and have made, and may from time to time make, elections to have shares withheld to cover withholding taxes or pay the exercise price of stock awards, which may be designed to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act or may constitute non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangements (as defined in Item 408(c) of Regulation S-K).
