State Street Corporation (NYSE:STT) Files An 8-K Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

Item 5.02.

Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of
Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory
Arrangements of Certain Officers.
At State Street Corporation’s annual meeting of shareholders held
on May 17, 2017, State Street’s shareholders approved the 2017
Stock Incentive Plan (the Plan). The purpose of the Plan is to
advance the interests of State Streets shareholders by enhancing
State Streets ability to attract, retain and motivate persons who
are expected to make important contributions to State Street and by
providing such persons with equity ownership opportunities and
performance-based incentives that are intended to better align the
interests of such persons with those of State Streets shareholders.
The Plan, among other things, allows for the issuance of up to
8,300,000 shares of State Streets common stock, plus up to an
additional 28,500,000 shares of State Streets common stock, which
is equal to the sum of (1) the number of shares of common stock
reserved for issuance under State Streets 2006 Equity Incentive
Plan that remained available for grant immediately prior to the
annual meeting and (2) the number of shares of common stock subject
to awards granted under the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan that,
following the annual meeting, may expire, terminate or be otherwise
surrendered, canceled, forfeited or repurchased by State Street at
their original issuance price to a contractual repurchase right
(subject, in the case of incentive stock options, to any
limitations of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended).
The Plan had previously been approved by State Street’s Board of
Directors, and its effectiveness was subject to shareholder
approval. The provisions of the Plan are described in the proxy
statement for State Street’s 2017 annual meeting under Item 4 –
Approval of The 2017 Stock Incentive Plan, which description is
attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and
incorporated herein by reference. The description of the Plan is
qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the
Plan, a copy of which is attached to this Current Report on Form
8-K as Exhibit 99.2 and incorporated herein by reference. >
Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
On May 17, 2017, State Street Corporation held its annual meeting
of shareholders. 351,696,933 shares of State Streets common stock
were represented in person or by proxy at the meeting, representing
approximately 92% of the 381,657,541 shares of State Streets common
stock outstanding as of the close of business on March 10, 2017,
the record date for the meeting. The following matters were voted
on at the meeting:
the election of ten director nominees;
the approval of an advisory proposal on executive
compensation;
the recommendation, by an advisory proposal, for the
frequency of future advisory proposals on executive
compensation;
the approval of the 2017 Stock Incentive Plan; and
the ratification of the selection of Ernst Young LLP as State
Streets independent registered public accounting firm for the
year ending December 31, 2017.
The shareholders voted to elect the ten director nominees, to
