                               EXERCISE OF OPTION

     Section 3.1 Exercisability of Option. The Option shall become exercisable

                                       3

<PAGE>

the provisions of this Agreement.

     Section 3.2 Manner of Exercise. The Option may be exercised, in whole or in
part, by delivering written notice to the Committee in such form as the
Committee may require from time to time. Such notice shall specify the number of
shares of Stock subject to the Option as to which the Option is being exercised,
and shall be accompanied by full payment of the Option Price of the shares of
Stock as to which the Option is being exercised. Payment of the Option Price may
be made either in cash or shares of Stock (including shares of Stock acquired
upon the exercise of an option) having a total Fair Market Value on the Exercise
Date equal to the Option Price multiplied by the number of shares of Stock as to
which the Option is being exercised. The Option may be exercised only in
multiples of whole shares and no partial shares shall be issued. The minimum
number of shares of Stock for which the Option may be exercised shall be the
lesser of one hundred (100) shares or the entire number of shares for which the
Option is exercisable on the Exercise Date. If, as of the third Anniversary
Date, the total number of shares as to which the Option is exercisable includes
a partial share, the Option for such partial share, whether or not previously
designated by the Committee as an Incentive Stock Option, shall be deemed to be
a non-Incentive Stock Option. On the first date, on or after the third
Anniversary Date, that the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock equals or
exceeds the Option Price, Grantee shall be deemed to have simultaneously
exercised the Option for such partial share and to have sold same to MBC for
such Fair Market Value. MBC shall remit to Grantee, in payment of the purchase
price for such partial share, the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of
such partial share over the Option Price.

     Section 3.3 Issuance of Shares and Payment of Cash upon Exercise. Upon
exercise of the Option, in whole or in part, in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement, and upon payment of the Option Price for the shares of Stock as
to which the Option is exercised, MBC shall issue to Grantee the number of
shares of Stock so paid for, in the form of fully paid and non-assessable Stock.

     Section 3.4 Loan or Guaranty. Solely at the discretion of the Committee,
and upon Grantee's written request, MBC may, but shall not be required to,
assist Grantee in the exercise of the Option by making a loan to Grantee or by
guaranteeing a third-party loan to Grantee. Such a loan or guaranty shall be
conditioned upon prior receipt by the Committee of satisfactory assurances of
Grantee's net worth and repayment ability. Subject to Regulation U of the
Federal Reserve Board, any such loan or guaranty may be in an amount up to one
hundred percent (100%) of the Option Price of the shares of Stock as to which
the Option is being exercised. All loans shall bear interest at a rate
determined by the Committee based upon loans of similar maturity, but in no
event shall the interest rate be less than the rate necessary to avoid the
imputation of interest or original issue discount under the provisions of the
Code. All other terms of any loan or guaranty (including terms of repayment)
shall be established by the Committee, subject to Regulation U of the Federal
Reserve Board and all other applicable federal and state laws and regulations.

         Section 4.1 Termination of Employment For Reason Other Than Death,
Disability or Retirement. The Option granted to Grantee shall terminate with
respect to any shares of Stock as to which the Option has not been exercised as

reason other than Grantee's death, disability or retirement, whether or not the
Option was exercisable on such date.

         Section 4.2 Upon Grantee's Death. In the event that upon Grantee's date
of death any portion of the Option is exercisable, then Grantee's executor,
personal representative or the person to whom the Option shall have been
transferred by will or the laws of descent and distribution, as the case may be,
may exercise all or any part of the portion of the Option exercisable as of the
date of death, provided such exercise occurs within twelve (12) months after the
date Grantee dies, but not later than the end of the stated term of the Option.
Upon Grantee's death, the portion of the Option, if any, that has not become
exercisable as of the date of Grantee's death shall terminate on the date of
Grantee's death.

         Section 4.3 Termination of Employment By Reason of Disability. In the
event that Grantee ceases to be an employee of MBC or an Affiliate by reason of
Disability, the portion of the Option, if any, that has become exercisable as of
the date of Disability may be exercised in whole or in part at any time on or
after the date of Disability, but not later than the end of the stated term of
the Option or as otherwise provided by the

                                       6

<PAGE>

provisions of Section 4.2 of this Agreement. Upon Grantee's termination of
employment by reason of Disability, the portion of the Option, if any, that has
not become exercisable as of the date of Disability shall terminate on the date
of Disability.

         Section 4.4  Termination of Employment By Reason of Retirement.

                  (a)      Early Retirement.

                           (i)      Exercisable  Portion of Option.  In the
event that Grantee ceases to be an employee of MBC or an Affiliate by reason of
Retirement at any time prior to Grantee's Normal Retirement Date, the portion of
the Option, if any, that has become exercisable as of the date of Retirement may
be exercised in whole or in part at any time on or after the date of Retirement,
but not later than the end of the stated term of the Option or as otherwise
provided by the provisions of Section 4.2 of this Agreement.

                           (ii)     Non-exercisable  Portion of Option.  In the
event that Grantee ceases to be an employee of MBC or an Affiliate by reason of
Retirement at any time prior to Grantee's Normal Retirement Date, the portion of
the Option, if any, that has not become exercisable as of the date of Retirement
shall terminate on the date of Retirement.

                  (b)      Normal Retirement.

                           (i)      Exercisable  Portion of Option.  In the
event that Grantee ceases to be an employee of MBC or an Affiliate by reason of
Retirement on or after Grantee's Normal Retirement Date, the portion of the
Option, if any, that has become exercisable as of the date of Retirement may be
exercised in whole or in part at any time on or after the date of Retirement,
but not later than the end of the stated term of the

                                       7

<PAGE>

Option or as otherwise provided by the provisions of Section 4.2 of this
Agreement.

                     (ii)     Non-exercisable  Portion of Option.  In the event
that upon the occurrence of Grantee's Retirement on or after Grantee's Normal
Retirement Date all or a portion of the Option has not become exercisable solely
because one (1) or more of the first three (3) Anniversary Dates have not
occurred (hereinafter referred to as the "Remaining Portion"), then such
Remaining Portion shall become exercisable upon the date of Retirement. In all
cases, the Remaining Portion shall not include any portion of the Option that
has terminated pursuant to other provisions of this Agreement. The Remaining
Portion of the Option that becomes exercisable on such Retirement date may be
exercised in whole or in part at any time thereafter, but not later than the end
of the stated term of the Option or as otherwise provided by the provisions of
Section 4.2 of this Agreement.

                                    ARTICLE 5

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

         Section 5.1 Non-Guarantee of Employment. Nothing in the Plan or this
Agreement shall be construed as a contract of employment between MBC (or an
Affiliate) and Grantee, or as a contractual right of Grantee to continue in the
employ of MBC or an Affiliate, or as a limitation of the right of MBC or an
Affiliate to discharge Grantee at any time.

         Section 5.2 No Rights of Stockholder. Grantee shall not have any of the
rights of a stockholder with respect to the shares of Stock that may be issued
upon the exercise of the Option until such shares of Stock have been issued to
him upon the due exercise of the Option.

         Section 5.3 Notice of Disqualifying Disposition. If Grantee makes a
disposition (as that term is defined in (S)424(c) of the Code) of any shares of
Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option within two
(2) years of the Grant Date or within one (1) year after the shares of Stock are
transferred to Grantee, Grantee shall notify the Committee of such disposition
in writing.

         Section 5.4 Withholding Taxes. MBC or any Affiliate shall have the
right to deduct from any compensation or any other payment of any kind
(including withholding the issuance of shares of Stock) due Grantee the amount
of any federal, state or local taxes required by law to be withheld as the
result of the exercise of the Option or the disposition (as that term is defined
in (S)424(c) of the Code) of shares of Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise
of the Option. In lieu of such deduction, MBC may require Grantee to make a cash
payment to MBC or an Affiliate equal to the amount required to be withheld. If
Grantee does not make such payment when requested, MBC may refuse to issue any
Stock certificate under the Plan until arrangements satisfactory to the
Committee for such payment have been made.

         Section 5.5 Nontransferability of Option. Except as otherwise
determined by the Committee, the Option shall be nontransferable otherwise than
by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and during the lifetime of
Grantee, the Option may be exercised only by Grantee or, during the period
Grantee is under a legal disability, by Grantee's guardian or legal
representative.

                               OMNIBUS STOCK PLAN

                        RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT

     AGREEMENT, made effective as of April 29, 2002, by and between Mercantile
Bankshares Corporation, a Maryland corporation ("Company"), and Edward J. Kelly,
III ("Award Recipient"):

     WHEREAS, the Company maintains the Mercantile Bankshares Corporation 1999
Omnibus Stock Plan ("Omnibus Stock Plan") under which the Company's Compensation
Committee ("Committee") of the Board of Directors ("Board") may, among other
things, award shares of the Company's Common Stock of $2.00 par value ("Common
Stock") to such members of the Company's management team as the Committee may
determine, subject to such terms, conditions, or restrictions as the Committee
may deem appropriate; and

     WHEREAS, pursuant to the Omnibus Stock Plan, the Committee, with the
approval of the Board, has granted to the Award Recipient a restricted stock
award subject to this Agreement setting forth the terms and conditions
applicable to such award in accordance with Article 5 of the Omnibus Stock Plan;
and

     WHEREAS, the Award Recipient desires to accept said award in accordance
with the terms and provisions of the Omnibus Stock Plan and this Agreement.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants and
agreements contained herein, the Company and Award Recipient agree as follows:

1.   AWARD OF SHARES:

     Under the terms of the Omnibus Stock Plan, the Committee has granted to the
Award Recipient, and has caused to be recorded on the books of the Company, a
restricted stock award on April 29, 2002 ("Award Date"), of 6,250 shares of
Common Stock ("Award Shares") subject to the terms, conditions, and restrictions
set forth in this Agreement. The Award Recipient has paid to the Company a
purchase price of $62.50, equal to $0.01 for each Award Share granted hereunder.

2.   AWARD RESTRICTIONS:

     The Award Shares shall be nontransferable and subject to forfeiture until
such shares vest in accordance with the provisions set forth below. Subject to
Section 4 of this Agreement, the Award Shares shall become vested in three
installments at the end of three periods of time (each, a "restriction period"),
if the Award Recipient shall have been continuously employed by the Company and
its affiliate, Mercantile-Safe Deposit and Trust Company ("Merc-Safe")
throughout the applicable restriction period. The

<PAGE>

number of Award Shares which may become vested in each installment, and the
applicable restriction periods, are set forth below.

                 Number of Award                Restriction
                  Shares Vesting               Period Ending
                  --------------               -------------

                      2,084                    March 12, 2003
                      2,083                    March 12, 2004
                      2,083                    March 12, 2005
                      -----
                      6,250

     Upon the vesting of Award Shares by virtue of the lapse of the applicable
restriction period set forth above or under Section 4 of this Agreement, the
Company shall deliver to the Award Recipient (or the person or persons entitled
thereto under Section 12 of this Agreement in the event of his death) a stock
certificate covering the requisite number of vested shares registered on the
Company's books within 30 days after vesting. Upon receipt of such stock
certificate, the holder is free to hold or dispose of such certificate at will,
subject to any applicable securities laws or regulations governing
transferability of shares of the Company.

     During the applicable restriction period and prior to vesting, Award Shares
are not transferable by the Award Recipient by means of sale, assignment,
exchange, pledge, hypothecation, or otherwise (other than by will or other
instrument taking effect upon his death or the laws of descent and
distribution).

3.   STOCK CERTIFICATES:

     Prior to the vesting of the Award Shares, the stock certificate(s)
evidencing the Award Shares shall be registered on the Company's books in the
name of the Award Recipient as of the Award Date. Physical possession or custody
of such stock certificate(s) shall be retained by the Company until such time as
the shares are vested. While in its possession, the Company reserves the right
to place a legend on the stock certificate(s) restricting the transferability of
such certificate(s) and referring to the terms and conditions (including
forfeiture) approved by the Committee and applicable to the shares represented
by the certificate(s). The Award Recipient shall deliver to the Company such
number of stock powers, endorsed in blank, as the Committee shall require with
respect to the Award Shares to be held by the Company during each restriction
period.

     Prior to the vesting of the Award Shares, the Award Recipient shall be
entitled to vote the Award Shares and to all other rights of a holder of Common
Stock of the Company, except that cash dividends will not be paid to the Award
Recipient but shall be withheld by the Company on the following terms. The
Company shall maintain and record a calculation of the number of additional
shares of Common Stock ("Additional Award Shares") that the Award Recipient
would own at the end of each restriction period (or at such earlier date on
which Award Shares shall become vested under Section 4 of

                                      -2-

<PAGE>

this Agreement) as if cash dividends (commencing with the dividend payable on
March 29, 2002) had been payable to the Award Recipient and had been reinvested
in Common Stock (including fractional shares) of the Company by him as a
participant in the Company's Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (as
in effect on the date hereof, or any such amended or successor plan). Upon the
vesting of the Award Shares, a certificate for the Additional Award Shares shall
be issued to the Award Recipient in the same manner as will apply to the Award
Shares and shall be deemed to be awarded as a supplemental restricted stock
award under the Omnibus Stock Plan, in consideration of the amount of cash
dividends withheld, with cash paid in lieu of any fractional Additional Award
Share. If any Award Shares do not become vested, the Additional Award Shares
attributable thereto will not be issued and no payments to the Award Recipient
with respect to such Award Share cash dividends will be made.

     Any securities or other property distributable to holders of Common Stock
of the Company, other than cash dividends, prior to the vesting of Award Shares,
shall be treated in the same way, subject to the same vesting and forfeiture
conditions, as Award Shares and shall not be distributed to the Award Recipient
unless and until such Award Shares become vested.

4.   TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT:

     If the Award Recipient's employment with the Company and Merc-Safe
terminates due to death or total and permanent disability or by reason of
involuntary termination of his employment by the Company and Merc-Safe in
violation of any employment agreement, during a restriction period, any Award
Shares which are then subject to restriction shall become fully vested as of
such date of termination of employment. If the employment of the Award Recipient
with the Company and Merc-Safe is terminated for any other reason during a
restriction period, no Award Shares which are then subject to restriction shall
become vested and such Award Shares shall be forfeited by the Award Recipient
and revert to the Company, without payment of any consideration to the Award
Recipient. The Committee shall have absolute discretion (subject to any
applicable laws) to determine whether an authorized leave of absence or absence
on military or government service or otherwise shall constitute a termination of
employment for purposes of this Agreement. The Committee shall have absolute
discretion to determine whether an Award Recipient's termination of employment
is due to total and permanent disability. The Committee may require the Award
Recipient to provide whatever evidence the Committee deems desirable to
ascertain whether the Award Recipient is totally and permanently disabled.

5.   WITHHOLDING TAXES AND TAX ELECTIONS:

     The Company or Merc-Safe shall have the right to deduct from any
compensation or any other payment of any kind (including withholding the
issuance of shares of Common Stock) due the Award Recipient the amount of any
federal, state or local taxes required by law to be withheld as a result of the
grant of the restricted stock award or the lapse of a restriction period in
whole or in part; provided, however, that the value of the

                                      -3-

<PAGE>

shares of Common Stock withheld may not exceed the statutory minimum withholding
amount required by law. In lieu of such deduction, the Company may require the
Award Recipient to make a cash payment to the Company or an Affiliate equal to
the amount required to be withheld. If the Award Recipient does not make such
payment when requested, the Company may refuse to issue any Common Stock
certificate under this Agreement until arrangements satisfactory to the
Committee for such payment have been made.

would not be in the best interests of either party, and the Award Recipient, as
a condition of the grant, agrees not to make such an election.

be final, conclusive, and binding upon the Company, the Award Recipient, and any
and all interested parties.

8.   RIGHT TO CONTINUED EMPLOYMENT:

     Nothing in the Omnibus Stock Plan or this Agreement shall be construed as a
