Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Committee and the Participants of the Retirement

Savings Plan of Pershing LLC

New York, New York

 

We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits of the Retirement Savings Plan of Pershing LLC as of December 31, 2003, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the period May 1, 2003 to December 31, 2003. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the auditing standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan at December 31, 2003, and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for the period May 1, 2003, to December 31, 2003, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

 

Our audit was performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedule of assets (held at end of year) as of December 31, 2003 is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan’s management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

THE RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN OF PERSHING LLC

 

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

 

General Information - The Retirement Savings Plan of Pershing LLC (the “Plan”) is a defined contribution plan sponsored by The Bank of New York Company, Inc. (the “Company”), which is intended to meet the requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”). The Plan provides employees with an opportunity to invest a portion of their annual compensation, augmented by matching Company contributions, to provide financial security during their working careers and additional income in their retirement.

 

On May 1, 2003, the Company acquired Credit Suisse First Boston’s Pershing unit. The Plan was established as of May 1, 2003 by the Company for domestic employees of Pershing LLC and its participating affiliates, collectively (“Pershing”).

 

Administration - The Plan is administered by the Benefits Committee (the “Committee”), which is appointed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company to supervise the administration of the Plan.

 

Participation - Under the terms of the Plan, each employee (as defined) becomes eligible to participate in the Plan after completing 30 days of service. A part time employee whose principal place of employment is in the U.S. shall become a Participant on the first day following completion of one year of service. Pershing employees who were previously participants in the Employees’ Savings and Retirement Plan of Credit Suisse First Boston (“CSFB Plan”) as of May 1, 2003 were eligible to become participants of the Plan immediately. Participants in the CSFB Plan had a choice to rollover their balances into the Plan or leave their balances in the CSFB Plan. Approximately $147.9 million of the balances from the CSFB Plan were transferred to the Plan and credited to the Employee’s Account.

 

Contributions - Employees may voluntarily contribute up to 20% of their total compensation (as defined) to the Plan. Total compensation for Plan purposes is limited to $200,000 for 2003 and includes salary paid beginning with the date of the employee’s enrollment and subsequent periods during which the employee is eligible to participate in the Plan.

 

There are two types of contributions made to the plan by the Company: (1) the “Retirement Contribution” and (2) the “Non-discretionary Contribution” or “Matching Contribution”.

 

Retirement Contribution - All employees are eligible for the annual retirement contribution. The employee must be employed by Pershing on December 31st of each year in order to receive that year’s retirement contribution. The contribution is based on the amount of base salary paid to the employee during the plan year and years of service up to 10% of the employee’s base salary.

 

Non-Discretionary Contribution or Matching Contribution - Pershing will make a contribution to the employee’s account for a particular year, provided the employee is employed on December 31st of that year. The amount of this contribution depends on the employee’s eligibility group (as defined).

 

4


Group 1 Eligible Employees – Participants who are managing directors will receive a contribution equal to 6% of base salary earned while eligible for the Plan, to a maximum of $12,000 for 2003, reduced by the amount of Pershing’s retirement contribution to the employee’s account for such year if the employee was hired on or after January 1, 2000 by the Company or a predecessor company.

 

Group 2 Eligible Employees – Participants who are not Group 1 employees will receive a matching contribution equal to 100% of their contributions, up to $3,000 for 2003. Group 2 employer matching contribution becomes fully vested upon completion of three years of service. Retirement contribution vests upon completion of five years of service.

 

Pre-tax contributions are always 100% vested.

 

To satisfy the deferred compensation rules of Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as amended (the “Code”), contributions are limited to the extent necessary to reduce the actual deferral percentage for the affected highly compensated group, as defined by the Code. The maximum individual salary deferral contribution per participant for each Plan year is $12,000 in 2003, and will increase each year by $1,000 until it reaches $15,000 in 2006, as provided in the Internal Revenue Code.

 

Participants’ Accounts – The participant’s account is credited with the applicable amount of Company contributions and any voluntary contributions made by the participant. Payments with respect to a participant’s interest under the Plan are charged to the participant’s account. The account is also credited with the proportionate share of any investment earning’s and any increase or decrease in the fair market value of the investment fund or funds in which he or she participates.

 

Investment Programs - Participants can invest in one or more of over two hundred professionally managed mutual funds. There are a wide variety of investment choices such as stable value, international, indexed, bond, and growth funds. The Plan investment options are arranged in four groups: Core Investment Options, Asset Allocation/Life Strategy Funds, Index Funds and Extended Options.

 

Core Investment Options – represent six funds for investors who are less experienced but comfortable with choosing investment options from a variety of styles.

 

Asset Allocation/Life Strategy Funds - provide a professionally managed mix of investments diversified across asset classes.

 

Index Funds – Index Funds closely track specific market indices, offering investors cost-effective exposure to markets and sectors.

 

Extended Options – represents a wide array of investment styles. These investment options are generally for more experienced investors who seek a more focused approach to investing.

 

The Plan is intended to qualify under Section 404 (c) of ERISA.

 

Withdrawals from the Plan – The vested value of the Participant’s account will be payable upon termination of employment. The account will be valued as of the next valuation date following a distribution request. The account value will then be paid as a lump sum distribution. The participant may elect to have the total vested value of the account remain in the Plan until normal

retirement date, however, account balances less than $5,000 will be automatically distributed in cash three months after termination of employment if a distribution has not been requested.

 

If the Participant dies, payments will be made to the designated beneficiary. If the Participant is married, the spouse is automatically the beneficiary, unless the participant designated an alternate beneficiary, which is consented to by the Participant’s spouse as witnessed by a plan representative or notary public. If the Participant is not married, and if no beneficiary was designated, payments go directly to the Participant’s estate.

 

Subject to certain limitations, a participant may also withdraw all or part of his or her account that is fully vested upon attainment of age 59½ or in the event of total disability.

 

In the case of extreme hardship (as defined in “the Plan”), a participant may be able to withdraw a portion or all of his or her contributions to the Plan. The Committee has discretionary power to approve certain such a withdrawal.

 

Loans to Participants –Loans from the Plan must be repaid over one to five years for a regular loan and one to ten years for a primary residence loan. The interest rate is based on a reasonable market rate (based on the prime rate) as determined by the Committee. Loans will be repaid by deducting a set amount of principal and interest from each of the Participant’s paycheck. The Participant cannot borrow against the value of their Retirement Contribution and earnings even if they are vested. The participant may borrow up to 50% of the total vested value of the account with a minimum loan amount of $500 and a maximum of $50,000.

 

Amendment, Suspension and Termination - The Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) may amend or terminate the Plan, in whole or in part, at any time. No such amendment or termination, however, may have the effect of diverting any part of the Fund to any purpose other than for the exclusive benefit of the participants. Likewise, an amendment or termination may not reduce the interest of any participant in the trust fund accrued prior to such amendment. The Board may, however, make such amendments, of retroactive effect if necessary, as required or advisable to comply with the provisions of the Code and ERISA pertaining to savings plans and trusts.

 

Although it is contemplated that the Plan will be a continuing program, the Board may, prior to the end of any year, suspend the Plan by omitting Pershing’s contribution for such year. In the event of such suspension, all provisions of the Plan other than those relating to Pershing’s contribution for the year or years of suspensions shall continue in effect.

 

In the event of termination, the Plan and the trust agreement may be kept in effect by the Board with respect to the contributions already made to the Plan, or the trust agreement may be terminated. If the trust agreement is terminated, assets of the trust fund shall be converted into cash and such cash shall be distributed to the participants in proportion to their respective interests.

 

Additional information regarding participants’ rights is provided in the Summary Plan Description.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The following is a summary of the more significant accounting policies of the Plan:

 

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Investment Valuation - The Plan’s investments are held by Fidelity as Trustee and are reported at fair value. Loans to participants are valued at their outstanding principal balances.

 

Investment Transactions and Investment Income - Investment transactions are recognized on the trade date of the purchase or sale. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis.

 

Administrative Expenses – Certain administrative and investment services are paid for by the Plan. Other minimal custodial fees are paid for by The Bank of New York Company, Inc.

 

Tax Status – The Plan has (applied for but has) not received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service stating that the Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”). However, the Plan administrator believes that the Plan is designed to comply with and is operating in accordance with the requirements in the Code, and, therefore, believes the Plan is qualified and the related trust is exempt from taxation.
