MBNA Sets Board Moves Executive pay cuts
MBNA Corp. said in its proxy statement Monday that it is making changes to its board of directors and executive pay packages, a little over a week after a published report on those and other issues.
A spokesman for the country's second-largest credit card issuer, Jim Donohue, said Monday that it had retained a recruitment firm to help it fill two board seats that will be vacated soon.
MBNA also said it will freeze senior executives' salaries this year and cut annual bonuses. It will not grant any stock options - with the possible exception of new hires - and it will limit restricted stock awards. The Wilmington, Del., company did not give the size of any of the reductions.
Mr. Donohue said the changes were not prompted by the March 7 New York Times report.
That article said that former chief executive officer Charles M. Cawley, who retired at yearend, fought with the board over executive compensation and worries about excessive cronyism between the board and the founders.
According to the proxy statement, Norma Lerner, the widow of MBNA co-founder and longtime CEO Alfred Lerner, will step down from the board in May at the company's annual meeting. In addition to owning 15,000 shares directly, Ms. Lerner is co-executor of the Alfred Lerner Trust, which owns 86 million shares, or 6.7% of MBNA.
Also leaving the board is Michael Rosenthal, a professor of English and comparative literature at Columbia University and the former associate dean of Mr. Lerner's alma mater, Columbia College. Mr. Rosenthal sold 222,106 shares (most of his stock) on March 9. According to Mr. Donohue, both Mr. Rosenthal and Ms. Lerner decided in February to retire from the board.
A third director, Stuart L. Markowitz, a physician of internal medicine, filed last week to sell 185,000 shares, nearly one-third of his stock. Mr. Donohue said the move was unrelated to the board changes.
Mr. Cawley received $7.5 million in cash compensation, $27.3 million in restricted shares, $10.2 million worth of stock options, and $517,000 in other compensation last year, according to the proxy statement. By contrast, Kenneth I. Chenault, the CEO of American Express Co., received total compensation of $17.1 million.
According to the proxy statement, Mr. Cawley reimbursed more than $900,000 to MBNA for expenses including the cost of a part-time personal assistant, security equipment installed at his home, and personal automobile maintenance provided by MBNA employees.
Besides Ms. Lerner and Mr. Rosenthal, the current board members are: CEO Bruce Hammonds; Mr. Markowitz; James H. Berick, 70, a retired partner with the law firm Squire, Sanders & Dempsey LLP; Benjamin R. Civiletti, 68, chairman of the Venable LLP law firm; William L. Jews, 52, CEO of Blue Cross Blue Shield of Delaware; William B. Milstead, 63, retired partner of Ernst & Young LLP; and Randolph D. Lerner, 42, chairman of the corporation and son of the late Mr. Lerner.
Michael Vinciquerra, an analyst at Raymond James & Associates called MBNA "a fantastic company, but … a bit of a black box."
David Hendler of CreditSights Inc. said that MBNA's annual report, which was also filed Monday, seems more forthcoming than usual.

Obama enlists job-cutting CEOs as advisers
President Barack Obama will meet today with members of a dream team of supposed employment experts to help tackle the nation's jobs problem dubbed the President's Council on Jobs and Competitiveness.
Those on the roster, perhaps, might not be the best to go to find ways to add to the workforce.
The President's Council was created back in January to tackle the jobs problem back when the unemployment rate was only 9.0 percent. Nearly a year later the employment epidemic is still crushing the American economy and hopes of millions of citizens who are without work. The members of his council, however, are largely CEOs and other executives who have managed to cut thousands of jobs from their own major corporations, all the while increasing profits for themselves.
Why would President Obama enlist execs who have notoriously taken away jobs from thousands of Americans? Many members of his council have also contributed as much as legally possible to his campaigns.
Big names from big corporations pepper the personnel of the council, which is led by chair Jeffrey Immelt from General Electric. Last year the Institute for Policy Studies reported that as CEO of GE, Immelt laid off 3,568 employees during the recent recession, all the while earning $5.58 million for himself. After those layoffs, Obama rewarded GE with $210 in stimulus funds as part of the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. And, of course, Immelt has been rewarded with a cushy title on the President's Council. While President Obama will look for Immelt on ways to create jobs, perhaps the commander-in-chief should consider enlisting others with a bigger background in hiring and not firing.
Elsewhere on the President's Council is Comcast Corp. CEO Brian Roberts, whose company was the top corporate source for contributions thus far in Obama's 2012 election bid. American Express CEO Kenneth I. Chenault also sits on the council, though he recently revealed plans to cut 1,500 jobs at a North Carolina plant, signaling one of the largest layoffs in the area in ages.
Other names on the list including execs from Centerbridge Partners, Pritzker Realty Group and UBS Americas , which together have contributed almost $3 million to Obama's last and current presidential campaign.
"Nobody should expect this group to come up with innovative ways of investing in the American workforce and generating not only more jobs but higher wages," Robert Reich, Labor secretary under Bill Clinton, tells The Los Angeles Times. "That's just not what these big companies do."
Boeing's Jim McNerney also will advise Obama, though perhaps he is better qualified to help raise a few bucks than bring on board new jobs. Boeing announced that they would cut 1,100 jobs this year - almost all in one location - all the while showing a 20 percent increase in profits.
Though Congress will meet this week to vote on Obama's American Jobs Act, experts predict that the bill is far from likely to be passed. Meanwhile the unemployment rate remains at 9.1 percent.

"President Barack Obama will convene top executives from Silicon Valley, Wall Street, and a number of other industries on Friday in a first-of-its kind cybersecurity "summit" taking place as the government and corporate executives each struggle to adjust to persistent and sophisticated breaches.
Mr. Obama will be joined at the Stanford University event by top officials at the Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Secret Service, and Federal Bureau of Investigation. The officials will call on companies to share more information with the government in an effort to combat future cyberattacks, a plea officials have made for months with limited success."
