Summary
This filing is an amendment (8-K/A) to a previous Current Report (8-K) filed on January 3, 2006, concerning the appointment of Frank P. Bramble, Sr. to Bank of America's Board of Directors. The purpose of this amendment is to formally state that, following a review, Bank of America has determined that there are no required disclosures regarding related party transactions between the corporation and Mr. Bramble or his immediate family. For investors, this filing provides confirmation that the board appointment of Mr. Bramble, a significant event for corporate governance, has been thoroughly reviewed from a conflict-of-interest perspective.
