Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

On April 12, 2022, The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation ("BNY Mellon" or the "Company") held its Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Annual Meeting"). At the Annual Meeting, each nominee for director was elected by a majority of votes cast (proposal 1). In addition, stockholders approved, on an advisory basis, the 2021 compensation of BNY Mellon's named executive officers (proposal 2); and ratified the appointment of KPMG LLP as BNY Mellon's independent registered public accountants for the year ending December 31, 2022 (proposal 3). The stockholders did not approve the stockholder proposal regarding stockholder requests to call a special meeting (proposal 4). Each of these matters is described in detail in BNY Mellon's definitive proxy statement, dated March 1, 2022, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Abstentions and broker non-votes were counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum was present, but were not treated as votes cast, did not have the effect of a vote for or against a director's election, for or against a ratification, or for or against the stockholder proposal, and were not counted in determining the number of votes required for approval or election.

The results were as follows:

1. The election of 11 directors for a term expiring at the end of our 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders:
