Additional information on these plans is presented in Note 17 – Employee Benefit Plans to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation’s 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K. As a result of the Merrill Lynch acquisition, the Corporation assumed the obligations related to the plans of Merrill Lynch. These plans include a terminated U.S. pension plan, non-U.S. pension plans, nonqualified pension plans and postretirement plans. The non-U.S. pension plans vary based on the country and local practices. In 1988, Merrill Lynch purchased a group annuity contract that guarantees the payment of benefits vested under the terminated U.S. pension plan. The Corporation, under a supplemental agreement, may be responsible for, or benefit from actual experience and investment performance of the annuity assets. The Corporation contributed $0 and $120 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, under this agreement. Additional contributions may be required in the future under this agreement.   Net periodic benefit cost of the Corporation’s plans for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 included the following components.   <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" align="center"> <tr> <td width="75%"></td> <td valign="bottom" width="2%"></td> <td></td> <td></td> <td></td> <td

pension plans and $116 million to its postretirement health and life plans. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Corporation contributed $106 million and $29 million to these plans. The Corporation does not expect to be required to contribute to its qualified pension plans during the rest of 2010. During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Corporation issued approximately 191 million restricted stock units to certain employees under the Key Associate Stock Plan. These awards generally vest in three equal annual installments beginning one year from the grant date. Vested restricted stock units will be settled in cash unless the Corporation authorizes settlement in common shares. The awards contain clawback provisions which permit the Corporation to cancel all or a portion of the award under specified circumstances. The compensation cost for cash-settled awards and awards subject to certain clawback provisions is accrued over the vesting period and adjusted to fair value based upon changes in the share price of the Corporation’s common stock. The compensation cost for the remaining awards is fixed and based on the share price of the common stock on the date of grant, or the date upon which settlement in common stock has been authorized. The Corporation hedges its exposure to variability in the expected cash flows for unvested awards using a combination of economic and cash flow hedges as described in Note 4 – Derivatives.   </div> NOTE 13 – Pension, Postretirement and Other Employee Plans The Corporation sponsors noncontributory trusteed pension plans that cover substantially false false false Description containing the entire pension and other postretirement benefits disclosure as a single block of text.
