(e)   2010 Annual Incentive Compensation Award Criterion. On February 24, 2010, the Organization & Compensation Committee (the Compensation Committee) of The Chubb Corporation (Chubb) determined that the performance goal to be used for calculating 2010 annual incentive compensation awards will be Chubb’s 2010 operating income, subject to adjustment to account for the reduction in investment income attributable to Chubb’s repurchase of shares of common stock.
