WILMINGTON TRUST CORPORATION

SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN

Article I

Purpose and Effective Date

          The Wilmington Trust Corporation Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan is the former
Wilmington Trust Company Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan as amended and adopted by
Wilmington Trust Corporation. The purpose of this Plan is to provide supplemental retirement
benefits to certain senior management officers of the Company selected for Membership by the
Company’s Board of Directors. Benefits provided by this Plan are intended to supplement benefits
provided by the Wilmington Trust Pension Plan. This Plan is intended to be an Excess Benefit Plan
as defined in Section 3(36) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 to the extent
that it provides benefits for selected employees in excess of the limitations on contributions and
benefits imposed by section 415 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 on plans to which that section
applies. To the extent that the Plan is not an Excess Benefit Plan this Plan is an unfunded
deferred compensation plan for a select group of management or highly-compensated employees of
Company within the meaning of Sections 201(2), 301(a) and 401(a) of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”) This Plan and its attendant Trust were effective January 1, 1989 and
the Plan was amended from time to time; most recently, effective October 18, 2008.

reduction under the Wilmington Trust Best Plan to the extent such amount is not included in
taxable income, and reduced by (i) any imputed amounts under the Code, and regulations issued
pursuant thereto, and (ii) amounts attributable to moving and travel expenses, and tuition

Restricted Stock for purposes of this Plan shall be the closing price of the Company’s common stock
on the national exchange on which the Company’s common stock is traded on the date that such
Restricted Stock is granted to a Participant. The restrictions on the Restricted Stock shall not
be taken into account when determining the Value of a Participant’s Restricted Stock for purposes
of this Plan. If a Participant subsequently forfeits any of the Restricted Stock granted to Him or
her, the Value of the forfeited Restricted Stock as of the date of grant shall be deducted from the
Participant’s Compensation in the year in which the Restricted Stock that is forfeited was granted
to the Participant.

     In the year in which a Participant’s employment terminates, any bonuses or incentive payments
(other than the Value of Restricted Stock) paid to the Participant after the Participant’s
employment terminates shall be attributed to the Participant’s last month of employment. Vacation

compensation purposes.

thereafter. If an Employee who is participating in the Plan is removed from participation in the
Plan by the Board for any reason other than Termination for Cause under Section 3.02(b) and is then
designated by the Board to participate in the Plan once again, the Board may, at its sole and
absolute discretion, count the Years of Service during the period that the Employee was not a
Participant in the Plan after being removed by the Board from participation in the Plan and before
being designated by the Board to re-commence participation in the Plan.

Article III

Eligibility for and Forfeiture of Plan Participation

     3.01. Commencement of Participation. An Employee shall become a Participant in this
Plan if designated for participation by the Board, in its sole and absolute discretion. The Board
shall document the selection of an Employee as a Participant in the Plan by a written resolution of
the Board. An Employee who has terminated participation in the Plan pursuant to Section 3.02(a) of
this Plan may, at the sole and absolute discretion of the Board, be re-designated for participation
in the Plan. If the Board re-designates an Employee for participation in the Plan, the Board may,
pursuant to Section 2.17 of the Plan, grant to such Employee credit for the Years of Service
following the Employee’s termination of participation and before the Employee’s re-commencement of
participation in the Plan.

     3.02. Termination for Cause.

          (a) For any Reason. A Participant shall cease to be a Participant but shall retain any
right to benefits the Participant has earned under the Plan until such participation ends if the
Board, in its sole discretion, determines that the Employee shall no longer participate in the Plan
for any reason other than for Cause as provided in paragraph (b) of this Section 3.02, including
but not limited to if the duties and responsibilities of the Employee’s position with the Company
no longer warrant the Employee’s participation in the Plan.

          (b) For Cause. A Participant shall cease to be a Participant and shall forfeit the
right to any benefits under this Plan if the employment of the Participant with the Company is
terminated for Cause. For purposes of this Plan, a Participant’s employment is terminated for
Cause if the Participant (a) engaged in gross misconduct, dishonesty, or deliberate and
premeditated acts against the interest of the Company, (b) is convicted of a felony whether related
or unrelated to employment by the Company, or (c) repeatedly and substantially failed to

3

 

perform the Participant’s obligations and duties of employment after written or oral demands
for such performance are given to the Participant by the Company.

     3.03. Competition with Company. Participation in this Plan shall also cease and all
rights to any benefits under this Plan shall be forfeited when a Participant, after Early, Normal,
or Postponed Retirement, becomes an employee, officer or a director of a competitor of the Company
without consent of the Board. The Board in its sole and absolute discretion shall determine if
another entity or person is a “competitor” for the purposes of this section.

     3.04. Board Discretion. The Board shall have broad, sole and absolute discretion in
making any determination under Sections 2.17, 3.01, 3.02, and 3.03 hereof.

     3.05. Change in Control.

          a. Nonforfeitability Upon Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Article III, Article VII, or any other portion of this Plan, when a Change in
Control (as defined below) occurs, rights to receive benefits under this Plan for each Employee who
is a Participant in the Plan on the date such change occurs shall become fixed and 100% vested and
shall not be subsequently divested by the Board. All discretion of the Board regarding the payment
of benefits under this Plan shall be eliminated upon such Change in Control or ownership. This
Section 3.05 shall not be considered to create in the Plan Participants any greater rights in the
assets of the Company or the Trust than the Participants had before the Change in Control occurred.

          b. Change in Control Defined. For purposes of this Section 3.05, a “Change in Control”
shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events, directly or indirectly or in one or more
series of transactions:

	 	(1)	 	A consolidation or merger of Wilmington Trust
Company (“Bank”) or Wilmington Trust Corporation (“Parent”) with any
third party (which includes a single person or entity or a group of
persons or entities acting in concert) not wholly-owned, directly or
indirectly, by Bank or Parent (a “Third Party”), unless Bank or Parent
is the entity surviving that merger or consolidation;
	 
	 	(2)	 	A transfer of all or substantially all of the
assets of Bank or Parent to a Third Party or a complete liquidation or
dissolution of Bank or Parent;
	 
	 	(3)	 	A Third Party, without the prior approval of
Bank’s or Parent’s Board, as the case may be, directly or indirectly,
through one or more subsidiaries or transactions:

	 	(a)	 	Acquires beneficial ownership of
15% or more of any class of Bank’s or Parent’s voting stock;
	 
	 	(b)	 	Acquires irrevocable proxies
representing 15% or more of any class of Bank’s or Parent’s
voting stock;

4

 

	 	(c)	 	Acquires any combination of
beneficial ownership of voting stock and irrevocable proxies
representing 15% or more of any class of Bank’s or Parent’s
voting stock;
	 
	 	(d)	 	Acquires the ability to control
in any manner the election of a majority of Bank’s or Parent’s
Board; or
	 
	 	(e)	 	Acquires the ability to directly
or indirectly exercise a controlling influence over the
management or policies of Bank or Parent;

	 	(4)	 	Any election of persons to Parent’s Board which
causes a majority of Parent’s Board to consist of persons other than
(a) persons who were members of Parent’s Board on January 1, 2000
and/or (b) persons who were nominated for election as members of
Parent’s Board by Parent’s Board (or a committee thereof) at a time
when the majority of the Parent’s Board (or that committee) consisted
of persons who were members of Parent’s Board on January 1, 2000;
provided, however, that any person nominated for election by Parent’s
Board (or a committee thereof), a majority of whom are persons
described in clauses (a) and/or (b), or are persons who were themselves
nominated by that Board (or a committee thereof), shall for this
purpose be deemed to have been nominated by a Board composed of persons
described in clause (a) above; or
	 
	 	(5)	 	A determination is made by any regulatory
agency supervising Bank or Parent that a “change in control,” as
defined in the banking, insurance or securities laws or regulations
then applicable to Bank or Parent, has occurred.

Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, a Change in Control shall not include any of
the events described above if they (i) are related to or occur in connection with the appointment
of a receiver or conservator for Bank or Parent, provision of assistance under Section 13(c) of the
Federal Deposit Insurance Act (the “FDI Act”), the approval of a supervisory merger, a
determination that Bank is in default as defined in Section 3(x) of the FDI Act, insolvent or in an
unsafe or unsound condition to transact business or the suspension, removal and/or temporary or
permanent prohibition by a regulatory agency of a member of the Board from participation in the
conduct of Bank’s or Parent’s business; or (ii) are the result of a Third Party inadvertently
acquiring beneficial ownership of or irrevocable proxies for or a combination of both for 15% or
more of any class of Bank’s or Parent’s voting stock, and that Third Party as promptly as
practicable thereafter divests itself of the beneficial ownership of or irrevocable proxies for a
sufficient number of shares so that Third Party no longer has beneficial ownership or irrevocable
proxies or a combination of both for 15% or more of any class of Bank’s or Parent’s voting stock.

Trust in such amounts and at such times as, in its sole discretion, it deems necessary.

Article X

Maintenance of Accounts

     10.01. Separate Accounts. The Company shall maintain a separate account on its books
for amounts held for the benefit of each Participant in the Trust (the “Account”) which shall be
held, administered and accounted for separately for each Participant. Separate accounting records
shall be maintained so that the amount held in each Participant’s Account shall be identifiable at
all times. Each Account shall consist of, and be increased by, contributions made by the Company
which are designated by the Company as the property of such Account and shall be decreased by
distributions made therefrom. The Company shall make contributions to the Trust and credit such
Accounts from time to time in its sole discretion. In addition, the Company shall allocate and
credit the Net Income of the Trust to the Accounts of Participants on the last day of each calendar
year (the “Allocation Date”), pro rata based on the respective Account balance of each Participant
on such date. If as a result of the foregoing, all or a portion of any Net Income otherwise
allocable to the Account of any Participant on the Allocation Date cannot be so allocated, such Net
Income shall be allocated and credited to the Accounts of all other Participants pro rata, based on
the respective Account balances of each Participant on such Allocation Date (determined without
regard to the allocation of any Net Income to such Accounts on such date). For purposes of the
foregoing, Net Income shall mean the net gain or loss of the Trust from investments, as reflected
by interest payments, dividends, realized and unrealized gains and losses on securities, other
investment transactions and expenses paid from the Trust. In determining the Net Income of the
Trust as of any date, assets shall be valued on the basis of their then fair market value.

     10.02. No Interest in Assets. Nothing in Section 10.01 shall be construed as creating
any right, title or interest in or to any assets in the Trust or assets of the Company.

Article XI

Amendment and Termination of the Plan

     11.01. Board Amendment or Termination. The Board reserves the right to amend or
terminate this Plan at any time without the consent of any Participant except, however, that no
such amendment or termination will affect the irrevocability of the Trust or the Company’s
obligation to pay benefits to Participants.

Article XII

Claims Procedures

     12.01
Claims Procedure. The Company shall notify a Participant or a Participant’s
beneficiary in writing, within ninety (90) days of his or her written application for benefits, of
his or her eligibility or ineligibility for benefits under this Plan.
If the Company determines that
an Participant or a Participant’s beneficiary is not eligible for benefits or full benefits, the
notice

9

 

shall set forth (a) the specific reasons for such denial; (b) a specific reference to the
provisions of the Arrangement on which the denial is based; (c) a description of any additional
information or material necessary for the claimant to perfect his or her claim, and a description
of why it is needed; and (d) an explanation of the Arrangement’s claims review procedure and other
appropriate information as to the steps to be taken if a Participant or a Participant’s beneficiary
wishes to have the claim reviewed. If the Company determines that there are special circumstances
requiring additional time to make a decision, the Company shall notify the Participant or Participant’s
beneficiary of the special circumstances and the date by which a decision is expected to be made,
and may extend the time for up to an additional ninety (90) day period.

     12.02 Review Procedures. If a Participant or Participant’s beneficiary is determined
by the Company not to be eligible for benefits, or if a Participant
or a Participant’s beneficiary
believes that he or she is entitled to greater or different benefits, the Participant or
the Participant’s beneficiary shall have the opportunity to have
such claim reviewed by the Company by
filing a written petition for review with the  Company within sixty (60) days after receipt of the
notice issued by the Company. Said petition shall state the specific reasons which the Participant or
the Participant’s beneficiary believes entitle him or her to benefits or to greater or different
benefits. Within sixty (60) days after receipt by the Company of
the petition, the Company shall afford
the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary an opportunity to present his or her position to
the Company orally or in writing, and the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary shall have the right
to review the pertinent documents. The Company shall notify the
Participant or the Participant’s
beneficiary of its decision in writing within the sixty-day period, stating specifically the basis
of its decision, written in a manner calculated to be understood by
the Participant or the
Participant’s beneficiary and the specific provisions of the Arrangement on which the decision is
based. The Company, in its sole discretion, may elect to hold a hearing before the Board of Directors
or a hearing officer, who will make a recommendation to the Board.

     The Claims Procedures of this Article XII shall apply only to those benefits that the
Administrator determines are not Excess Benefits.

Article XIII

Miscellaneous

     13.01. Anti-Alienation. No right or claim to any portion of the benefits payable under
the Plan shall be assignable or alienable by a Participant nor shall a Participant’s benefit be
subject to garnishment, attachment, execution or levy.

conferring upon any Employee the right to continue in the employ of the Company in any capacity
whatsoever.

not limited to, the eligibility to participate in the Plan and amount of benefits payable under the
Plan. The rules, interpretations, computations, and other actions of the Board shall be binding
and conclusive on all persons.
