Cautionary Statement

See pages 60 through 63 of the Corporations 2006 Annual Report to Shareholders for
the Cautionary Statement. Those pages are incorporated herein by reference. This Form 10-K contains statements relating to future results of the Corporation that are considered forward-looking statements. 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: the impact of technological innovations and the ability to recover quickly from unexpected events on our ability to compete;
adequacy of owned and leased facilities; and litigation results. These forward-looking statements, and other forward-looking statements contained in other public disclosures of the Corporation, which make reference to the cautionary factors
contained, or incorporated, in this Form 10-K, are based on assumptions that involve risks and uncertainties and that are subject to change based on various important factors (some of which are beyond the Corporations control). Actual
results may differ materially from those expressed or implied as a result of these risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the following:

The nature of any new capital accords to be adopted by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and implemented by the U.S. federal bank regulatory agencies will affect the Corporations future capital requirements.

Uncertainties inherent in the litigation and litigation settlement process.

Such forward-looking statements are also subject to risks and uncertainties identified in the information incorporated by reference under Item 7 of this Form 10-K.

All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which such statements are made, and the Corporation undertakes no obligation to update any statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on
which such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Description of Business

Mellon Financial Corporation (Mellon) is a global financial services company headquartered
in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, with approximately $5.5 trillion in assets under management, custody or administration, including $995 billion under management. For a further discussion of Mellons products and services, see Nature
of operations in Note 1 of Notes to Financial Statements in our 2006 Annual Report to Shareholders, which paragraphs are incorporated herein by reference. See Available Information on page 1 of this Report for a
description of how to access financial and other information regarding Mellon.

On Dec. 3, 2006, Mellon entered into an agreement to merge with The
Bank of New York Company, Inc., which would create an asset servicer with, on a pro forma basis, more than $17 trillion in assets under custody and administration, $8 trillion in assets under corporate trusteeship and over
$1.1 trillion in assets under management at Dec. 31, 2006.

Under the terms of the merger agreement, a new company will be formed to be called
The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation, in which Mellon shareholders will receive one share of common stock for each share of Mellon common stock outstanding on the closing date and The Bank of New York shareholders will receive
..9434 shares of common stock for each share of The Bank of New York common stock outstanding on the closing date. Mellon and The Bank of New York have entered into reciprocal stock option agreements for 19.9% of each others outstanding
common stock. Additional information on these stock option agreements is presented in Mellons 2006 Annual Report to Shareholders in Note 30 of Notes to Financial Statements, which is incorporated herein by reference.

The board of directors of each company has adopted a resolution recommending the adoption of the merger agreement by its respective shareholders, and each party has
agreed to put these matters before their respective shareholders for consideration. Subject to satisfaction of various conditions of closing, the merger is currently expected to close early in the third quarter of 2007.

We were originally formed as a holding company for Mellon Bank, N.A. (Mellon Bank), which has its
executive offices in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. With its predecessors, Mellon Bank has been in business since 1869. In addition to Mellon Bank, our banking subsidiaries include Mellon Trust of New England, National Association, headquartered in
Boston, Massachusetts; Mellon United National Bank, headquartered in Miami, Florida; and Mellon 1stBusiness Bank,
National Association, headquartered in Los Angeles, California. They engage in trust and custody activities, investment management services, banking services and various securities-related activities. The deposits of the banking subsidiaries are
insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) to the extent provided by law.

We divide our businesses into five business
sectors: Mellon Asset Management; Private Wealth Management; Asset Servicing; Payment Solutions & Investor Services; and Other. We serve two distinct major types of clients:



| |  |  | Financial institutions, corporations and government bodies
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | High net worth individuals
| | - |  | --------------------------

Discontinued operations

As
discussed in Note 4 of Notes to Financial Statements in Mellons 2006 Annual Report to Shareholders, Mellon is reporting results using the discontinued operations method of accounting. This Note is incorporated herein by reference. All
information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including all supplemental information, reflects continuing operations unless otherwise noted.

Supervision and Regulation

Mellon and its bank subsidiaries are subject to an extensive system of banking laws and regulations
that are intended primarily for the protection of the customers and depositors of Mellons bank subsidiaries rather than holders of Mellons securities. These laws and regulations govern such areas as permissible activities, reserves,
loans and investments, and rates of interest that can be charged on loans. Similarly, our subsidiaries engaged in investment advisory and other securities related activities are subject to various U.S. federal and state laws and regulations that are
intended to benefit clients of investment advisors and shareholders in mutual funds rather than holders of Mellons securities. In addition, Mellon and its subsidiaries are subject to general U.S. federal laws and regulations and to the laws
and regulations of the states or countries in which we conduct our businesses. Described below are the material elements of selected laws and regulations applicable to Mellon and its subsidiaries. The descriptions are not intended to be complete and
are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the statutes and regulations described. Changes in applicable law or regulation, and in their application by regulatory agencies, cannot be predicted, but they may have a material
effect on the business and results of Mellon and its subsidiaries.

Regulated Entities of the Corporation

Mellon is regulated as a bank holding company and a financial holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended by the 1999 financial modernization
legislation known as the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (the BHC Act). As such, it is subject to the supervision of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the Federal Reserve Board). In general, the BHC Act limits the
business of bank holding companies that are financial holding companies to banking, managing or controlling banks, performing certain servicing activities for subsidiaries, and as a result of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act amendments to the BHC Act,
engaging in any activity, or acquiring and retaining the shares of any company engaged in any activity, that is either (1) financial in nature or incidental to such financial activity (as determined by the Federal Reserve Board in consultation
with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the OCC)) or (2) complementary to a financial activity and does not pose a substantial risk to the safety and soundness of depository institutions or the financial system generally
(as solely determined by the Federal Reserve Board). Activities that are financial in nature include securities underwriting and dealing, insurance underwriting and making merchant banking investments in commercial and financial companies. They also
include activities that the Federal Reserve Board had determined, by order or regulation in effect prior to the enactment of the BHC Act, to be so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto.

In order for a bank holding company to engage in the broader range of activities that are permitted by the BHC Act for bank holding companies that are
also financial holding companies, (1) all of its depository institutions must be well-capitalized and well-managed and (2) it must file a declaration with the Federal Reserve Board that it elects to be a financial holding
company. In addition, to commence any new activity permitted by the BHC Act and to acquire any company engaged in any new activities permitted by the BHC Act, each insured depository institution of the financial holding company must have
received at least a satisfactory rating in its most recent examination under the Community Reinvestment Act.

Mellons national bank
subsidiaries are subject to primary supervision, regulation and examination by the OCC. Mellon Securities Trust Company, The Dreyfus Trust Company and Mellon Trust of New York are New York trust companies and are supervised by the New York State
Department of

Banking. Mellon Trust of California is a California trust company and is supervised by the State of California Department of
Financial Institutions. Mellon Trust of Washington is a Washington trust company and is supervised by the Division of Banks of the Washington State Department of Financial Institutions.

Mellons non-bank subsidiaries engaged in securities related activities are regulated by the SEC. We operate a number of broker-dealers that engage in securities underwriting and other broker-dealer activities.
These companies are registered broker-dealers and members of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (the NASD), a securities industry self-regulatory organization.

Certain of our subsidiaries are registered investment advisors under the Investment Advisors Act of 1940 (the 40 Act) and, as such, are supervised by
the SEC. They are also subject to various U.S. federal and state laws and regulations and to the laws of any countries in which they conduct business. These laws and regulations generally grant supervisory agencies broad administrative powers,
including the power to limit or restrict the carrying on of business for failure to comply with such laws and regulations. Our subsidiaries advise both public investment companies which are registered with the SEC under the 40 Act, including
the Dreyfus/Founders family of mutual funds, and private investment companies which are not so registered under the 40 Act. The shares of most investment companies advised by our subsidiaries are qualified for sale in all states in the U.S.
and the District of Columbia, except for investment companies that offer products only to residents of a particular state or of a foreign country and except for certain investment companies which are exempt from such registration or qualification.

Certain of Mellons United Kingdom incorporated subsidiaries are authorized to conduct investment business in the U.K. pursuant to the U.K. Financial
Services and Markets Act 2000 (FSMA 2000). Their investment management advisory activities and their sale and marketing of retail investment products are regulated by the Financial Services Authority (FSA). In addition to
broad supervisory powers, the FSA may discipline the businesses it regulates. Disciplinary powers include the power to temporarily or permanently revoke the authorization to carry on regulated business following a breach of FSMA 2000 and/or
regulatory rules, the suspension of registered employees and censures and fines for both regulated businesses and their registered employees. Certain U.K. investment funds, including Mellon Investment Funds, an open-ended investment company with
variable capital advised by U.K. regulated subsidiaries of the Corporation, are registered with the FSA and are offered for retail sale in the U.K.

Certain of Mellons public finance activities are regulated by the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board. Mellon Bank and certain of the Corporations other subsidiaries are registered with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission
(the CFTC) as commodity pool operators or commodity trading advisors and, as such, are subject to CFTC regulation.

The types of activities in
which the foreign branches of our banking subsidiaries and our international subsidiaries may engage are subject to various restrictions imposed by the Federal Reserve Board. Those foreign branches and international subsidiaries are also subject to
the laws and regulatory authorities of the countries in which they operate.

Dividend Restrictions

Mellon is a legal entity separate and distinct from its bank and other subsidiaries. Our principal sources of funds to make capital contributions or loans to our bank and
other subsidiaries, to pay service on our own debt, to honor our guarantees of debt issued by Mellon Funding Corporation or of trust-preferred securities issued by a trust or to pay dividends on our own equity securities, are dividends and interest
from our subsidiaries. Various federal and state statutes and regulations limit the amount of dividends that may be paid to us by our bank subsidiaries without regulatory approval. For a further discussion of restrictions on dividends, see the first
three paragraphs of Note 24 of Notes to Financial Statements in Mellons 2006 Annual Report to Shareholders, which paragraphs are incorporated herein by reference.

If, in the opinion of the applicable federal regulatory agency, a depository institution under its jurisdiction is engaged in or
is about to engage in an unsafe or unsound practice (which, depending on the financial condition of the bank, could include the payment of dividends), the regulator may require, after notice and hearing, that the bank cease and desist from such
practice. The OCC and the FDIC have indicated that the payment of dividends would constitute an unsafe and unsound practice if the payment would deplete a depository institutions capital base to an inadequate level. Moreover, under the Federal
Deposit Insurance Act, as amended (the FDI Act), an insured depository institution may not pay any dividends if the institution is undercapitalized or if the payment of the dividend would cause the institution to become undercapitalized.
In addition, the federal bank regulatory agencies have issued policy statements which provide that FDIC-insured depository institutions and their holding companies should generally pay dividends only out of their current operating earnings.

The ability of Mellons bank subsidiaries to pay dividends to Mellon may also be affected by various minimum capital requirements for banking
organizations, as described below. In addition, Mellons right to participate in the assets or earnings of a subsidiary are subject to the prior claims of creditors of the subsidiary.

Transactions with Affiliates

There are certain restrictions on the
ability of Mellon and certain of its non-bank affiliates to borrow from, and engage in other transactions with, its bank subsidiaries and on the ability of such bank subsidiaries to pay dividends to Mellon. In general, these restrictions require
that any extensions of credit must be secured by designated amounts of specified collateral and are limited, as to any one of Mellon or such non-bank affiliates, to 10% of the lending banks capital stock and surplus, and, as to Mellon and all
such non-bank affiliates in the aggregate, to 20% of such lending banks capital stock and surplus. These restrictions, other than the 10% of capital limit on covered transactions with any one affiliate, are also applied to transactions between
national banks and their financial subsidiaries. In addition, certain transactions with affiliates must be on terms and conditions, including credit standards, that are substantially the same, or at least as favorable to the institution, as those
prevailing at the time for comparable transactions involving other non-affiliated companies or, in the absence of comparable transactions, on terms and conditions, including credit standards, that in good faith would be offered to, or would apply
to, non-affiliated companies.

Unsafe and Unsound Practices

The OCC has authority under the Financial Institutions Supervisory Act to prohibit national banks from engaging in any activity which, in the OCCs opinion, constitutes an unsafe or unsound practice in conducting their businesses. The
Federal Reserve Board has similar authority with respect to us and our non-bank subsidiaries, including Mellon Securities Trust Company, a member of the Federal Reserve System.

Deposit Insurance

Substantially all deposits of our bank subsidiaries are insured up to applicable limits by the
Deposit Insurance Fund (DIF) of the FDIC and are subject to deposit insurance assessments to maintain the DIF. Our bank subsidiaries paid no deposit insurance assessments on their deposits under the risk-based assessment system utilized
by the FDIC through Dec. 31, 2006. In November 2006, the FDIC adopted a new risk-based insurance assessment system effective Jan. 1, 2007 designed to tie what banks pay for deposit insurance more closely to the risks they pose. The FDIC
also adopted a new base schedule of rates that the FDIC can adjust up or down, depending on the needs of the DIF, and set initial premiums for 2007 that range from 5 cents per $100 of domestic deposits in the lowest risk category to
43 cents per $100 of domestic deposits for banks in the highest risk category. The new assessment system is expected to result in increased annual assessments on the deposits of our bank subsidiaries of 5 to 7 basis points (each basis
point representing one-hundredth of one percent) per $100 of domestic deposits. An FDIC credit available to our bank subsidiaries for prior contributions is expected to offset the

---

assessments for 2007 and will offset some of the assessments for the next several years. Significant increases in the insurance
assessments of our bank subsidiaries will increase our costs once the credit is fully utilized or otherwise disposed of. In addition, the Deposit Insurance Fund Act of 1996 authorizes the Financing Corporation (FICO) to impose
assessments on DIF assessable deposits in order to service the interest on FICOs bond obligations. The amount assessed on individual institutions by FICO is in addition to the amount, if any, paid for deposit insurance under the FDICs
risk-related assessment rate schedule. FICO assessment rates may be adjusted quarterly to reflect a change in assessment base. The FICO annual assessment rate for the fourth quarter of 2006 was 1.24 cents per $100 of deposits and decreases
to 1.22 cents for the first quarter of 2007.

Under the FDI Act, insurance of deposits may be terminated by the FDIC upon a finding that the
institution has engaged in unsafe and unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations or has violated any applicable law, regulation, rule, order or condition imposed by a banks federal regulatory agency.

Liability of Commonly Controlled Institutions and Related Matters

The FDI Act contains a cross-guarantee provision that could result in any insured depository institution owned by Mellon being assessed for losses incurred by the FDIC in connection with assistance
provided to, or the failure of, any other insured depository institution owned by the Corporation. Also, under the BHC Act and Federal Reserve Board policy, we are expected to act as a source of financial and managerial strength to each of our bank
subsidiaries and to commit resources to support each such bank in circumstances where such bank might not be in a financial position to support itself.

Any capital loans by a bank holding company to any of its bank subsidiaries are subordinate in right of payment to deposits and to certain other indebtedness of such bank subsidiaries. In the event of a bank holding companys
bankruptcy, any commitment by the bank holding company to a federal bank regulatory agency to maintain the capital of a subsidiary bank will be assumed by the bankruptcy trustee and entitled to a priority of payment.

In addition, under the National Bank Act, if the capital stock of a national bank is impaired by losses or otherwise, the OCC is authorized to require payment of the
deficiency by assessment upon the banks shareholders, pro rata, and to the extent necessary, if any such assessment is not paid by any shareholder after three months notice, to sell the stock of such shareholder to make good the deficiency.

Regulatory Capital

The Federal Reserve Board and the
OCC have substantially similar risk-based capital and leverage ratio guidelines for banking organizations. The guidelines are intended to ensure that banking organizations have adequate capital given the risk levels of their assets and off-balance
sheet financial instruments.

The risk-based capital ratio is determined by classifying assets and certain off-balance sheet financial instruments into
weighted categories, with higher levels of capital being required for those categories perceived as representing greater risk. Under the capital guidelines, a banking organizations total capital is divided into tiers. Tier I
capital consists of (1) common equity, (2) qualifying noncumulative perpetual preferred stock, (3) for bank holding companies but not banks, a limited amount of qualifying cumulative perpetual preferred stock and
(4) minority interests in the equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries (including, for bank holding companies but not banks, trust-preferred securities), less goodwill and certain other intangible assets. Not more than 25% of qualifying
Tier I capital may consist of cumulative perpetual preferred stock, trust-preferred securities and other so-called restricted core capital elements. Commencing Dec. 31, 2003, we deconsolidated the statutory business trusts
which have issued trust-preferred securities. As a result, the junior subordinated debentures held by the trusts are now reported on our consolidated balance sheet. The Federal Reserve Board has confirmed the

PART I(continued)



---

continued qualification of trust-preferred securities as Tier I capital for bank holding companies notwithstanding the
change in accounting treatment. Tier II capital consists of hybrid capital instruments, perpetual debt, mandatory convertible debt securities, a limited amount of subordinated debt, preferred stock that does not qualify as
Tier I capital, a limited amount of the allowance for loan and lease losses and a limited amount of unrealized gains on equity securities. Tier III capital consists of qualifying unsecured subordinated debt. The sum of
Tier II and Tier III capital may not exceed the amount of Tier I capital.

The risk-based capital guidelines include capital charges for equity
investments in nonfinancial companies. The guidelines require a series of marginal capital charges on covered equity investments that increase with the level of those investments as a percentage of Tier I capital. With certain exceptions,
including investments grandfathered under the guidelines, the guidelines require that Mellon and its bank subsidiaries deduct from Tier I capital the appropriate percentage set out below:

| |  | >25%                                                                                                  |  |  |  | 25%                                                                                             |  | 

The risk-based capital requirements identify concentration of credit risk and certain risks arising from
non-traditional activities, and the management of those risks, as important factors to consider in assessing an institutions overall capital adequacy. In addition, the risk-based capital guidelines incorporate a measure for market risk in
foreign exchange and commodity activities and in the trading of debt and equity instruments. The market risk-based capital guidelines require banking organizations with large trading activities to maintain capital for market risk in an amount
calculated by using the banking organizations own internal value-at-risk models, subject to parameters set by the regulators.

Under the risk-based
capital guidelines of the Federal Reserve Board application to bank holding companies and the OCC application to national banks, the required minimum ratio of Total capital (the sum of Tier I, Tier II and Tier III capital)
to risk-adjusted assets (including certain off-balance sheet items, such as standby letters of credit) is currently 8%. The required minimum ratio of Tier I capital to risk-adjusted assets is 4%. At Dec. 31, 2006, Mellons Total
capital and Tier I capital to risk-adjusted assets ratios were 18.54% and 12.14%, respectively.

The U.S. federal bank regulatory agencies
risk-based capital guidelines are based upon the 1988 capital accord of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (the BIS). The BIS is a committee of central banks and bank supervisors/regulators from the major industrialized countries
that develops broad policy guidelines that each countrys supervisors can use to determine the supervisory policies they apply. The BIS has been working for a number of years on revisions to the 1988 capital accord and in June 2004
released the final version of its proposed new capital framework, with an update in November 2005 (BIS II). BIS II provides two approaches for setting capital standards for credit risk  an internal ratings-based approach tailored
to individual institutions circumstances (which for many asset classes is itself broken into a foundation approach and an advanced or A-IRB approach, the availability of which is subject to additional
restrictions) and a standardized approach that bases risk weightings on external credit assessments to a much greater extent than permitted in existing risk-based capital guidelines. BIS II also would set capital requirements for operational risk
and refine the existing capital requirements for market risk exposures.

The U.S. banking and thrift agencies are developing proposed revisions to their
existing capital adequacy regulations and standards based on BIS II. In September 2006, the agencies issued a notice of proposed rulemaking setting forth a definitive proposal for implementing BIS II in the U.S. that would apply only to
internationally active banking organizations  defined as those with consolidated total assets of $250 billion or more or consolidated on-balance sheet foreign exposures of $10 billion or

more  that other U.S. banking organizations could elect but would not be required to apply. The proposal is based on the
A-IRB approach to credit risk in BIS II and also includes capital requirements for operational risk based upon BIS IIs advanced measurement approach, or AMA, for addressing operational risk. In December 2006,
the agencies issued a notice of proposed rulemaking describing proposed amendments to their existing risk-based capital guidelines to make them more risk-sensitive, generally following aspects of the standardized approach of BIS II. These
latter proposed amendments, often referred to as BIS I-A, would apply to banking organizations that are not internationally active banking organizations subject to the A-IRB approach for credit risk and the AMA approach for operational
risk applicable to internationally active banking organizations and do not opt in to these approaches. The agencies previously had issued advance notices of proposed rulemaking on both proposals (in August 2003 regarding the A-IRB
approach of BIS II for internationally active banking organizations and in October 2005 regarding BIS II).

The comment periods for both of the
agencies notices of proposed rulemakings expire on March 26, 2007. The agencies have indicated their intent to have the A-IRB provisions for internationally active U.S. banking organizations first become effective in March 2009 and that
those provisions and the BIS I-A provisions for others will be implemented on similar timeframes.

Mellon currently is not an internationally active
banking organization (as defined) and has not made a determination as to whether, as a stand-alone institution, it would opt to apply the A-IRB provisions for credit risk and the AMA provisions for operational risk applicable to internationally
active U.S. banking organizations once they become effective. If the pending merger of Mellon and The Bank of New York is consummated as expected, the entity resulting from the merger will be an internationally active banking organization.

The Federal Reserve Board also requires bank holding companies to comply with minimum Leverage ratio guidelines. The Leverage ratio is the ratio of a bank
holding companys Tier I capital to its total consolidated quarterly average assets (as defined for regulatory purposes), net of the loan loss reserve, goodwill and certain other intangible assets. The guidelines require a minimum Leverage
ratio of 3% for bank holding companies that either have the highest supervisory rating or have implemented the Federal Reserve Boards risk-adjusted measure for market risk. All other bank holding companies are required to maintain a minimum
Leverage ratio of 4%. The Federal Reserve Board has not advised us of any specific minimum Leverage ratio applicable to us. At Dec. 31, 2006, our Leverage ratio was 9.06%.

The Federal Reserve Boards capital guidelines provide that banking organizations experiencing internal growth or making acquisitions are expected to maintain strong capital positions substantially above the
minimum supervisory levels, without significant reliance on intangible assets. Also, the guidelines indicate that the Federal Reserve Board will consider a tangible Tier I leverage ratio in evaluating proposals for expansion or new
activities. The tangible Tier I leverage ratio is the ratio of a banking organizations Tier I capital (excluding intangibles) to total assets (excluding intangibles).

Prompt Corrective Action

The FDI Act requires federal banking regulators to take prompt corrective action with
respect to depository institutions that do not meet minimum capital requirements. The FDI Act identifies the following capital tiers for financial institutions: well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly
undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized.

Rules adopted by the federal banking agencies provide that an institution is deemed to be: well
capitalized if the banking institution has a Total risk-based capital ratio of 10.0% or greater, a Tier I risk-based capital ratio of 6.0% or greater, and a Leverage ratio of 5.0% or greater, and the institution is not subject to an
order, written agreement, capital directive, or prompt corrective action directive to meet and maintain a specific level for any capital measure; adequately capitalized if the institution has a Total risk-based capital ratio of 8.0% or
greater, a Tier I risk-based capital ratio of 4.0% or

greater, and a Leverage ratio of 4.0% or greater (or a Leverage ratio of 3.0% or greater if the institution is rated
composite 1 in its most recent report of examination, subject to appropriate Federal banking agency guidelines), and the institution does not meet the definition of a well capitalized institution; undercapitalized if the institution
has a Total risk-based capital ratio that is less than 8.0%, a Tier I risk-based capital ratio that is less than 4.0% or a Leverage ratio that is less than 4.0% (or a Leverage ratio that is less than 3.0% if the institution is rated
composite 1 in its most recent report of examination, subject to appropriate Federal banking agency guidelines) and the institution does not meet the definition of a significantly undercapitalized or critically undercapitalized institution;
significantly undercapitalized if the institution has a Total risk-based capital ratio that is less than 6.0%, a Tier I risk-based capital ratio that is less than 3.0%, or a Leverage ratio that is less than 3.0% and the institution
does not meet the definition of a critically undercapitalized institution; and critically undercapitalized if the institution has a ratio of tangible equity to total assets that is equal to or less than 2.0%. The FDI Act imposes
progressively more restrictive constraints on operations, management and capital distributions, depending on the capital category in which an institution is classified.

At Dec. 31, 2006, all of our bank subsidiaries were well capitalized based on the ratios and guidelines noted above. A banks capital category, however, is determined solely for the purpose of applying the
prompt corrective action rules and may not constitute an accurate representation of the banks overall financial condition or prospects.

The
appropriate federal banking agency may, under certain circumstances, reclassify a well capitalized insured depository institution as adequately capitalized. The appropriate agency is also permitted to require an adequately capitalized or
undercapitalized institution to comply with the supervisory provisions as if the institution were in the next lower category (but not treat a significantly undercapitalized institution as critically undercapitalized) based on supervisory information
other than the capital levels of the institution.

The FDI Act provides that an institution may be reclassified if the appropriate federal banking agency
determines (after notice and opportunity for hearing) that the institution is in an unsafe or unsound condition or deems the institution to be engaging in an unsafe or unsound practice.

Anti-Money Laundering and the USA Patriot Act

A major focus of governmental policy on financial institutions in
recent years has been aimed at combating money laundering and terrorist financing. The USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 (the USA Patriot Act) substantially broadened the scope of U.S. anti-money laundering laws and regulations by imposing
significant new compliance and due diligence obligations, creating new crimes and penalties and expanding the extra-territorial jurisdiction of the U.S. The U.S. Treasury Department has issued and, in some cases, proposed a number of implementing
regulations which apply various requirements of the USA Patriot Act to financial institutions such as Mellons bank, broker-dealer and investment adviser subsidiaries and mutual funds and private investment companies advised or sponsored by our
subsidiaries. Those regulations impose obligations on financial institutions to maintain appropriate policies, procedures and controls to detect, prevent and report money laundering and terrorist financing and to verify the identity of their
customers. Certain of those regulations impose specific due diligence requirements on financial institutions that maintain correspondent or private banking relationships with non-U.S. financial institutions or persons. Failure of a financial
institution to maintain and implement adequate programs to combat money laundering and terrorist financing could have serious legal and reputational consequences for the institution.

Depositor Preference Statute

Under federal law, depositors and certain claims for administrative expenses and
employee compensation against an insured depository institution would be afforded a priority over other general unsecured claims against such an institution, including federal funds and letters of credit, in the liquidation or other
resolution of such an institution by any receiver.

Privacy

The privacy
provisions of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act generally prohibit financial institutions, including Mellon, from disclosing nonpublic personal financial information of consumer customers to third parties for certain purposes (primarily marketing) unless
customers have the opportunity to opt out of the disclosure. The Fair Credit Reporting Act restricts information sharing among affiliates and was amended in December 2003 to further restrict affiliate sharing of information for marketing
purposes.

Community Reinvestment Act

The Community
Reinvestment Act requires banks to help serve the credit needs of their communities, including credit to low and moderate income individuals and geographies. Should Mellon or its bank subsidiaries fail to adequately serve these communities,
potential penalties could be imposed, including regulatory denials to expand branches, relocate, add subsidiaries and affiliates, expand into new financial activities and merge with or purchase other financial institutions.

Legislative Initiatives

Various legislative initiatives are from
time to time introduced in Congress. We cannot determine the ultimate effect that any such potential legislation, if enacted, would have upon our financial condition or operations.

Competition

Mellon and its subsidiaries continue to be subject to intense competition in all aspects and areas of our
businesses. Our Mellon Asset Management and Private Wealth Management business sectors experience competition from asset management firms; hedge funds; investment banking companies; bank and financial holding companies; banks, including trust banks;
brokerage firms; and insurance companies. These firms/companies can be domiciled domestically or internationally. Our Asset Servicing and Payment Solutions & Investor Services business sectors compete with domestic and foreign banks
offering institutional trust and custody products and cash management products and a wide range of technologically capable service providers, such as data processing and shareholder services firms and other firms that rely on automated data transfer
and capture services for institutional and retail customers.

Many of our competitors, with the particular exception of bank and financial holding
companies and banks, are not subject to regulation as extensive as that described under the Supervision and Regulation section and, as a result, may have a competitive advantage over Mellon and its subsidiaries in certain respects.

As part of our business strategy, we seek to distinguish ourselves from competitors by the level of service we deliver to clients. We also believe that
technological innovation is an important competitive factor and for this reason have made and continue to make substantial investments in this area. The ability to recover quickly from unexpected events is a competitive factor, and we have devoted
significant resources to this.

Employees

At Dec. 31, 2006, Mellon and its subsidiaries had approximately
16,800 employees.

Statistical Disclosure by Bank Holding Companies

The Securities Act of 1933 Industry Guide 3 and the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 Industry Guide 3 (together Guide 3), require that the following statistical disclosures be made in Annual Reports on Form 10-K filed by bank holding companies.

VIII. Replacement Capital Covenant

On Sept. 19, 2006, Mellon entered into a Replacement Capital Covenant (the RCC) in connection with the issuance by Mellon of £200,500,000 aggregate principal amount of Mellons 6.369%
junior subordinated debentures (the Junior Subordinated Debt Securities) to Mellon Capital III (the Trust) and the issuance by the Trust of £200,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Trusts 6.369%
preferred securities (the Preferred Securities). We refer to the Junior Subordinated Debt Securities and the Preferred Securities collectively as the Securities.

Mellon agreed in the RCC for the benefit of persons that buy, hold or sell a specified series of its long-term indebtedness for money borrowed, called

##### Table of Contents

PART I(continued)



---

Covered Debt in the RCC, that, on or before Sept. 5, 2056:



| |  |  | Mellon and its subsidiaries will not repay, redeem or repurchase any of the Securities, with limited exception, unless
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Mellon has obtained the prior approval of the Federal Reserve to do so if such approval is then required under the Federal Reserves capital guidelines
applicable to bank holding companies, and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the principal amount repaid or the applicable redemption or repurchase amount does not exceed specified percentages of the aggregate amount of net cash proceeds
that Mellon and its subsidiaries have received during the six months prior to delivery of notice of such repayment or redemption or the date of such repurchase from issuance of other securities specified in the RCC that, generally described, based
on current standards are expected to receive equity credit at the time of sale or issuance equal to or greater than the equity credit attributed to the Securities at the time of such repayment, redemption or repurchase; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Mellon will not pay any interest that has been deferred on the junior subordinated debt securities other than out of the net proceeds of common stock or certain
non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock that is subject to a replacement capital covenant similar to the RCC, subject to certain limitations, and Mellon will not redeem interest on the Junior Subordinated Debt Securities that it has elected to
capitalize, as permitted by the terms of such securities, except with the proceeds raised from the issuance or sale of common stock or rights to purchase common stock.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The series of long-term indebtedness for borrowed money that is the Covered Debt under the RCC as of the date of this annual report on Form 10-K is Mellons 7.995% Series B junior subordinated debentures due
Jan. 15, 2027 issued in connection with the December 1996 offering of 7.995% trust preferred securities of Mellon Capital II, CUSIP No. 58551HAA1. Each series of long-term indebtedness for money borrowed that is Covered Debt, including
Mellons 7.995% Series B junior subordinated debentures due Jan. 15, 2027, will cease to be Covered Debt on the earliest to occur of (i) the date that is two years prior to the final maturity date of such series, (ii) if Mellon
or a subsidiary elects to redeem or repurchase such series in whole or in part and after giving effect to such redemption or repurchase the outstanding principal amount of such series is less than $100,000,000, the applicable redemption or
repurchase date, and (iii) if such series meets the other eligibility requirements set forth in the RCC for Covered Debt but is not subordinated debt, then the date (if any) on which Mellon issues a series of long term indebtedness for money
borrowed that meets the eligibility requirements of the RCC but is subordinated debt. The RCC includes provisions under which a new series of Mellons long-term indebtedness for money borrowed will then be identified as and become the Covered
Debt benefiting from the RCC.

The full text of the RCC is available as Exhibit 99.1 to Mellons current report on Form 8-K dated Sept. 20,
2006. The description of the RCC set forth above is qualified by reference to its full text.

less than 1% of this space to a third party. This property is utilized by all of our business sectors.

For additional information on Mellons premises and equipment, see Note 9 of Notes to Financial Statements in Mellons 2006 Annual Report to Shareholders,
which note is incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Various legal actions and proceedings are pending or are threatened against Mellon and our
subsidiaries and certain former subsidiaries, some of which seek relief or damages in amounts that are substantial. These actions and proceedings arise in the ordinary course of our businesses and operations and include suits relating to our
servicing, investment, mutual fund, advisory, trust, custody, shareholder services, working capital solutions, lending, collections and other activities and operations. Certain actions and proceedings relate to businesses that have been divested.
From time to time, Mellon may be involved in regulatory enforcement matters in which claims for disgorgement, the imposition of penalties and/or other remedial sanctions are possible.

As previously reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K dated Aug. 18, 2006, our bank subsidiary, Mellon Bank, entered into a settlement agreement with the United States Attorney for the Western District of
Pennsylvania that relates to the April 2001 incident in Mellons Pittsburgh IRS Processing Unit. Under the terms of the settlement, Mellon has agreed to have an independent third party monitor compliance with the terms of the agreement for a
three year period. No monetary penalties or fines were imposed by the agreement, although Mellon will reimburse the federal government for $30 thousand of costs incurred by an outside vendor. If Mellon complies with the terms of the agreement,
the U.S. Attorney will not prosecute Mellon. The agreement should not impair Mellons ability to serve as a long-standing government contractor.

As
previously reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K dated Sept. 30, 2005, Mellon Investor Services LLC (MIS), our transfer agent subsidiary, has received a Wells Notice from the Philadelphia District Office of the
SEC indicating that the staff intends to recommend that the SEC bring a civil injunctive action against MIS for violations of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 thereunder. A Wells Notice indicates that the
SECs staff has made a preliminary decision to recommend that the SEC authorize the staff to bring a civil action. However, a Wells Notice is not a formal allegation or proof of wrongdoing. The notice provides MIS the opportunity to respond
formally to the SEC staff before the staff makes a final determination whether to recommend that the SEC initiate an action.

The SEC staff has informed
MIS that its recommendation relates to MIS disclosure practices to its transfer agency (issuer) clients during the period 2001 through late 2004 concerning the receipt of fees from a search firm that performs in-depth searches for
lost shareholders. Fees received by MIS from this firm during this period aggregate to approximately $5 million. MIS believes that the SEC staff has been investigating related practices at other transfer agents. MIS has been
cooperating fully with the SEC staff in its investigation and has made a submission explaining why it believes that its conduct was lawful.

Because of the
complex nature of some of these legal actions and proceedings, it may be a number of years before such matters ultimately are resolved. After consultation with legal counsel, Mellons management believes that the aggregate liability, if any,
resulting from such pending and threatened legal actions and proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, although there could be a material effect on results of operations for
a particular period.

herein by reference. On Oct. 2, 2006, Mellon issued an aggregate of 2,800,221 shares of its common stock in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration provided in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. The shares were issued
to two of the shareholders of Walter Scott & Partners as part of the consideration for the acquisition of Walter Scott & Partners by Mellon. The shares were issued to two sophisticated investors and at the time the investors
acquired the shares, a registration statement was in effect registering the resale of the shares.

On Oct. 2, 2006, Mellon also issued an aggregate of
240,368 shares of its common stock to certain employees of Walter Scott & Partners in the form of restricted shares that will vest in increments of one-third on each of the second through fourth anniversaries of the award date, provided
that the individual remains employed by Mellon on that date. No registration was required because the shares were issued in a transaction not constituting a sale, which was effected outside the U.S. to persons not U.S. citizens or residents.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Corporations management, with the participation of its principal executive
officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness, as of Dec. 31, 2006, of the Corporations disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). Based upon their evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Corporations disclosure controls and procedures, as of
Dec. 31, 2006, were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Corporation in the reports filed or submitted by it under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the
time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms, and to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Corporation in such reports is accumulated and communicated to the Corporations management,
including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

See
pages 66 and 67 of the Corporations 2006 Annual Report to Shareholders for the Report of Management on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting and the related Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, each of which is
incorporated herein by reference.

In the ordinary course of business, the Corporation may routinely modify, upgrade and enhance its internal controls and
procedures for financial reporting. However, there was no change in the Corporations internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter
ended Dec. 31, 2006, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporations internal control over financial reporting.
