Severance and personnel-related costs or credits include severance, employee retention, payments related to
change-in-control provisions of employment contracts, outplacement services and other benefits associated with
employee termination or reversals of previously estimated amounts, which typically occur in corporate support
and data processing functions. Occupancy and equipment charges or credits represent merger-related and
restructuring costs or gains associated with lease terminations, obsolete equipment write-offs, and the sale of
duplicate facilities and equipment. Credits may result when obsolete properties or equipment are sold for more
than originally estimated. Other merger-related and restructuring charges or credits include expenses necessary
to convert and combine the acquired branches and operations of merged companies, direct media advertising
related to the acquisitions, asset and supply inventory write-offs, litigation accruals, and other similar charges.
In conjunction with the consummation of an acquisition and the completion of other requirements, BB&T
typically accrues certain merger-related expenses related to estimated severance and other personnel costs, costs
to terminate lease contracts, costs related to the disposal of duplicate facilities and equipment, costs to terminate
data processing contracts and other costs associated with an acquisition. The following tables present a summary
of activity with respect to BB&T’s merger and restructuring accruals. These tables include costs reflected as
expenses, as presented in the table above, and certain accruals recorded through purchase accounting
adjustments.
