Compensation Actually Paid (CAP) has been calculated based on the requirements and methodology set forth in the applicable SEC rules (Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K). The CAP calculation includes the end-of-year value of awards granted within the fiscal year, the change in fair value from prior year-end of vested awards and the change in the fair value of unvested awards granted in prior years, regardless of if, when or at which intrinsic value they will actually vest. To calculate CAP the following amounts were deducted from and added to the total compensation number shown in the Summary Compensation Table (SCT).

​
(i)
Benefit accruals were discontinued in the defined benefit (DB) pension plans in 2007; therefore, their service cost subsequent to this date is zero. The DB pension plans have not been amended during 2025 to change the value of the benefits provided under the plans; therefore, there is no prior service cost in this period.
​
(ii)
Fair value is determined in a manner consistent with that disclosed in our consolidated financial statements. Fair value or change in fair value, as applicable, of equity awards was determined by reference to:
​
▪
For RSU awards (excluding PRSUs), closing price on applicable year-end date(s) or, in the case of vesting dates, the actual vesting price.
​
▪
For PRSUs awarded from 2019 onwards (which include a relative TSR performance condition in addition to a relative ROE performance condition), the fair value was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model multiplied by an estimate of the probable payout percentage as of the applicable year-end dates, or, in the case of vesting awards, the actual vesting price and outcome.
​
▪
For stock options, a Black Scholes value as of the applicable year-end or vesting date, determined based on the same methodology as used to determine grant date fair value but using the closing stock price on the applicable revaluation date as the current market price and with an expected term set using an elapsed term approach. This approach estimates expected term by subtracting the amount of time that has elapsed (between the grant and subsequent valuation dates) from the initial grant-date expected term estimate divided by the percentage change between the option’s strike price and the stock price at the valuation date. Volatility (based on historical and implied volatilities), risk-free rates and dividend yield are determined as of the revaluation date based on the expected term.
▪
For PSO awards (which include a Total TSR performance condition as outlined on page 65), the fair value was estimated using a Black Scholes value as the PSO awards hit the hurdle price on February 12, 2024 and as a result, a Monte Carlo simulation was no longer an applicable valuation method.
​
(iii)
Vested awards have met the requisite service period as well as achieved the performance and market conditions, if applicable.
​
(3)
Reflects cumulative TSR. It shows the growth of a $100 investment on December 31, 2020, including the reinvestment of all dividends.
​
(4)
Peer TSR reflects the TSR of the S&P Financials Index, the industry index peer group reported in the Company’s Stock Performance Graph in the Annual Report.
​
(5)
ROE is calculated for the relevant periods by dividing the (i) net income for the period by (ii) average shareholders’ equity for the period.

Compensation Actually Paid vs. Total Shareholder Return
Approximately 73% of CEO (PEO) total compensation and on average 54% of total compensation for non-PEO NEOs is composed of long-term incentive awards that are tied to the future performance of the Company, including stock price and positive cumulative net income. As a result, the changes in CAP year-over-year are in line with TSR and net income.

Compensation Actually Paid vs. Company Selected Measure
ROE is a key financial metric in both the Company’s AIA and LTIA programs because it aligns the interests of the executives with shareholders. In addition, sustaining a strong ROE is a key driver of long-term value creation.
[MISSING IMAGE: lc_paidequity-pn.jpg]
       
Total Shareholder Return Vs Peer Group
The Company’s five-year cumulative TSR is well above the companies included in the S&P Financials Index and the Company’s TSR has been above that of the S&P Financials Index in each year during that four-year period.

Equity Grant Policy
The CBC maintains a Policy Regarding Granting of Equity Awards (Equity Grant Policy). Under our Equity Grant Policy, the CBC approves annual grants of equity awards to executive officers and certain other executives at a Committee meeting, effective three trading days after we have publicly announced our financial results for the most recently ended fiscal year, or if such date is on or prior to the fourth Monday of January, then the trading day following the fourth Monday of January (Annual Grant Date). In addition to the annual grants of equity awards, equity awards may be granted at other times during the year to newly hired or promoted colleagues, and in other special circumstances. The Equity Grant Policy provides that only the CBC may approve such “off-cycle” grants of equity awards to executive officers and certain other executives effective as of  (1) the last trading day of April, July and October and (2) such day that is the Annual Grant Date (each, an off-cycle Grant Date).
Where awards are denominated by value, the number of shares subject to the award is determined using the closing price of our common stock on the NYSE on the applicable grant date. For stock option grants, the exercise price is the closing price of our common stock on the NYSE on the applicable grant date. Beginning with awards granted in 2026, the CBC redesigned the long-term incentive program to no longer grant stock options. We do not time the release of material nonpublic information based on equity award grant dates or for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation.
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, we granted Stock Options to our NEOs on the Annual Grant Date in accordance with the terms of our Equity Grant Policy. Given we issued a Current Report on Form 8-K announcing certain executive team changes within one business day following these Stock Option grants, we are providing the following tabular disclosure regarding the timing of such Stock Option grants in accordance with Item 402(x) of Regulation S-K.
