IN THE MARKETS by Aaron Elstein

CIT chief exec’s exit comes a year too late efore bidding Jeffrey Peek farewell, let’s consider the Bsoon-to-be former CIT Group chief executive’s exit package. It says a lot about how the bank bailouts are NOT EXACTLY PEEK affecting executive pay. PERFORMANCE Just last year, CIT was prepared to send off Mr. Peek with a package conservatively valued at $20 million if he had to head out the door.As- suming he left for “good reason,”he was entitled to nearly $9 million in severance, plus a contin- ued salary and bonus for three years after leav- ing the company—an exceptionally generous perk, considering his annual salary was $800,000 and his 2008 “incentive pay” includ- ed $6.5 million worth of equity grants. That bloomberg news wasn’t all. Mr. Peek also stood to get an additional three years of benefits, two extra years applied to his CIT retirement plan, stock and option grants vest- ed on an accelerated schedule and, of course, outplacement services. But Mr. Peek can’t take any of it with him now. Did the board get a dose of courage and stand up to the leader who steered CIT to the brink of bank- ruptcy? Hardly.The credit goes instead to the Emergency Economic Stabi- lization Act of 2008, better known as the bank-bailout program. That law bans bailed-out banks from making any “golden parachute” payments to departing senior executives until they’ve paid back taxpayers. CIT, scram- bling to raise additional cash so it can survive, is in no position to repay its $2.3 billion in bailout funds. As a result,“all”that Mr.Peek will be left with when he leaves at year-end will be about $5 million in accrued pension benefits, a pittance compared to the riches executives of his station have been accustomed to getting. Even Ken Lewis—Bank of America’s soon-to-be-former CEO, who agreed last week to give up his 2009 pay—is slated to exit the bank in De- cember with $69 million in retirement benefits.
