Item 8.01. Other Events
On September 29, 2005, ACE received from Donald H. Neustadt his written resignation as a director of ACE. The resignation is for personal reasons, and not because of any disagreement of Mr. Neustadt with ACE on any matter related to ACE’s operations, policies, or practices. Mr. Neustadt currently serves as a consultant to ACE under a Consulting Agreement dated as of July 1, 2005. His resignation will not affect the consulting relationship.
Mr. Neustadt had served as a director of ACE since January 1987. He served as ACE’s Chief Executive Officer from November 1994 through June 30, 2004 and was employed by ACE in a non-officer capacity through June 30, 2005. Because of that employment relationship, Mr. Neustadt did not serve as a member of any committee of ACE’s board of directors.
