<p style="margin-top: 6px; text-indent: 4%; margin-bottom: 0px;"><font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2">In November 2010, we announced a global multi-year program designed to enhance service excellence and innovation, deliver increased efficiencies in our operating model and position us for accelerated growth. The program includes operational and information technology enhancements and targeted cost initiatives, including planned reductions in force and a plan to reduce our occupancy costs. We initiated the first reduction in force in December 2010, and we expect the reduction in staff to be substantially completed by the end of 2011. In connection with this and other actions taken to consolidate real estate, we recorded aggregate restructuring charges of $<font class="_mt">156</font> million in our 2010 consolidated statement of income. </font></p>
<p style="margin-top: 6px; text-indent: 4%; margin-bottom: 0px;"><font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2">Of the aggregate restructuring charges, $<font class="_mt">105</font> million consisted of employee-related costs, including severance, a portion of which will be paid in a lump sum or over a defined period, and a portion of which will provide related benefits and outplacement services for approximately <font class="_mt">1,400</font> employees identified for involuntary termination in connection with the plan. The severance-related costs included $<font class="_mt">12</font> million related to acceleration of equity-based compensation expense. The remaining $<font class="_mt">51</font> million related to actions taken in 2010 to reduce our occupancy costs through consolidation of real estate. </font></p>
<p style="margin-top: 6px; text-indent: 4%; margin-bottom: 0px;"><font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2">In December 2010, approximately <font class="_mt">550</font> employees were involuntarily terminated and left State Street. The following table presents the activity in the related balance sheet reserve for 2010. </font></p>
