ITEM 8.01.

OTHER EVENTS.

On December 10, 2014, the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois entered a favorable decision with respect to the status of The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation’s (“BNY Mellon”) $312 million secured loan to Sentinel Management Group, Inc. (“Sentinel”), an asset manager that filed for bankruptcy in 2007. As previously disclosed, as of September 30, 2014, BNY Mellon recorded the loan to Sentinel as a fully collateralized performing loan and accrued $28 million in interest on the reestablished loan. As a result of the favorable court decision, BNY Mellon expects that there will be no impact to its fourth quarter 2014 results of operations.

The information presented in this Current Report on Form 8-K may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements, which may be expressed in a variety of ways, including the use of future or present tense language, relate to, among other things, expectations with regard to the impact to the fourth quarter of 2014. These statements are based upon current beliefs and expectations and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties (some of which are beyond BNY Mellon’s control). Factors that could cause BNY Mellon’s results to differ materially can be found in the risk factors set forth in BNY Mellon’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 and its other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. All statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K speak only as of the date of this filing and BNY Mellon undertakes no obligation to update the information to reflect events or circumstances that arise after that date or reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by federal securities laws.
