Item 5.02.    Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
 
As previously disclosed, on August 2, 2015, PartnerRe Ltd. ("PartnerRe") entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Exor N.V., Pillar Ltd. and, solely with respect to certain sections of the Merger Agreement, EXOR S.p.A. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each PartnerRe performance share unit ("PSU") that is outstanding as of the date of the closing of the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the "Closing") will, in accordance with the terms of such awards, become fully vested and settled as if maximum performance had been achieved. In consideration of the PSU treatment set forth in the Merger Agreement, on February 24, 2016, the Compensation & Management Development Committee of the Board of Directors of PartnerRe resolved, in its discretion and as permitted under the terms of the PartnerRe Amended and Restated Employee Equity Plan, that any outstanding PSUs that become vested on March 1, 2016 will vest and settle as if maximum performance had been achieved, without regard to the actual performance level achieved during the applicable performance period or the actual date of the Closing.
