          (c) An Eligible Employee must make his Deferral Election for a Bonus payable with respect to a

Deferred Bonus Agreement between the Eligible Employee and his Employer.

          (b) A Participant’s Deferred Bonus Agreement shall specify whether the Deferred Bonus

          (c) A Participant’s Deferred Bonus Agreement shall specify whether the referred Bonus
thereunder (and Deemed Earnings thereon) shall be paid (or shall commence to be paid) at (i)

ARTICLE IV

ACCOUNTS

     4.1 Maintenance of Accounts. The Plan Administrator shall establish a bookkeeping account (an
“Account”) for each Participant. The amount of such Deferred Bonus shall be credited to such
Participant’s Account as of the Deferral Date.

     4.2 Deemed Earnings. Accounts will be credited with Deemed Earnings on the same basis
accounts are credited with investment returns under the Retirement Savings Plan.

     4.3 Deemed Investment Portfolio.

          (a) Participant shall designate, at the time and in the manner prescribed by the Plan
Administrator, the Investment Option or Options, in which his Deferred Bonus shall be deemed to be

          (b) A Participant may elect, at the time and in the manner prescribed by the Plan
Administrator, to transfer some or all of his Account balance among the Investment Options within
his or

-3-

 

her Deemed Investment Portfolio. Each such transfer must be made in an integral multiple of
one percent of the Account balance, at the time of the transfer, in the Investment Option from
which amount is transferred. The foregoing notwithstanding, a Participant may not change a prior
allocation to his M&T Bank Corporation Stock Deemed Investment Account other than to add to such
Account.

          (c) If the Plan Administrator determines to cease offering an Investment Option or Options,
each Participant shall elect, at the time and in the manner prescribed by the Plan Administrator,
to invest the portion of his Account and future Contributions, which otherwise would have been

Options.

          (d) Any direction to the Participant pursuant to this section 4.3 is advisory only and the
Plan Administrator reserves to itself the right to refuse any direction given by a Participant.

          (e) If a Participant fails to give the Plan Administrator a direction with respect to the
investment of his or her Account, the Plan Administrator shall deem the Participant to have
directed investment to a money market or equivalent fund.

     4.4 M&T Bank Corporation Stock Deemed Investment Account. A Participant’s M&T Bank Corporation
Deemed Investment Account shall be credited with the number of deemed or hypothetical shares of M&T
Bank Corporation Common Stock in the same manner such shares would be determined under the
Retirement Savings Plan. In the event of any change in corporate capital capitalization, such as a
stock split, or a corporate transaction, such as any merger, consolidation, separation, including a
spin-off, or other distribution of stock or property of the Employer, any reorganization (whether
or not such reorganization comes within the definition of such term in Section 368 of the Code) or
any partial or complete liquidation of the Employer, such change or adjustment shall be made in the
number and class of hypothetical shares of M&T Bank Corporation Common Stock held in a
Participant’s M&T Bank Corporation Stock Deemed Investment Account as may be determined under the
Retirement Savings Plan.

     4.5 Separate Accounting. Within a Participant’s Account, the Plan Administrator shall account
separately for each of the Participant’s Deferred Bonuses. Such accounting shall conform to
regulations and other guidance issued by the Department of the Treasury with respect to the
maintenance of separate accounts for Pre-2005 Deferred Bonuses and Post-2004 Deferred Bonuses so as
to preclude the application of Section 409A of the Code to Pre-2005 Deferred Bonuses and Deemed
Earnings.

ARTICLE V

PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

     5.1 General Rule. Except as provided in the following sentence or in Section 5.2 hereof or as
otherwise provided in this Section 5.1, the amount standing to the Participant’s Account shall be
paid to the Participant (or, in the event of the Participant’s death, his beneficiary) on the last
day of the calendar quarter next following the Anniversary Date of the scheduled payment elected in
the Participant’s Deferred Bonus Agreement or Agreements. Payments on account of Retirement shall
commence on the last day of the calendar quarter next following Retirement. Such payments shall be
paid in the form or forms elected in such Agreement or Agreements. If a Participant terminates his
employment with the Employer for any reason other than Retirement, the Plan Administrator, in its
sole discretion, may direct, a single sum payment of the total amount standing to the Participant’s
Account that is attributable solely to Pre-2005 Deferred Bonuses and the accretions thereon. The
foregoing notwithstanding, the Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, may direct a single sum
payment of the total amount standing to the Participant’s Account or some lesser amount if such
payment is permitted under regulations or other guidance issued by the Secretary of the Treasury.

-4-

 

     5.2 Withdrawals for Unforeseeable Emergency. If the Participant experiences an Unforeseeable
Emergency, the Participant may request the Plan Administrator to make a distribution of all or a
portion of the Account that is attributable to both Pre-2005 Deferred Bonuses and Post-2004
Deferred Bonuses and the accretions thereon. The amount distributed with respect to the
Unforeseeable Emergency shall not exceed the amounts necessary to satisfy the emergency plus the
amount necessary to pay taxes reasonably anticipated as a result of the distribution, after taking
into account the extent to which such hardship is or may be relieved through reimbursement or
compensation by insurance or otherwise by liquidation of the Participant’s assets (to the extent
such liquidation would not itself cause severe financial hardship). Such withdrawal shall first be
made from Pre-2005 Bonus Deferrals and only after such amounts are exhausted, shall a withdrawal be
made from Post-2004 Bonus Deferrals. The determination of whether a Participant has incurred an
Unforeseeable Emergency shall be made by the Plan Administrator in accordance with its
interpretation of the foregoing rules.

     5.3 Payment. The payment to a Participant with respect to a Deferred Bonus (and Deemed
Earnings thereon) shall be made in cash by the Participant’s last Employer in the year with respect
to which the Bonus deferred was payable; provided, however, that (a) if such Employer is owned
directly or indirectly by a bank, the payment shall be made by such bank and (b) payment from a
Participant’s M&T Bank Corporation Stock Deemed Investment Account shall be made in M&T Bank
Corporation Common Stock (except to the extent that payment in M&T Bank Corporation Common Stock
would result in a fractional share, in which case the amount that would constitute a fractional
share shall be paid in cash, based on the closing price of a share of M&T Bank Corporation Common
Stock on the New York Stock Exchange, or such other principal securities exchange on which the
shares of Common Stock are traded if such shares are no longer traded on the New York Stock
Exchange, on the Valuation Date immediately preceding the date of payment). Payments of a
Participant Account which (x) is not being paid in a single payment and (y) contains a M&T Bank
Corporation Stock Deemed Investment Account as well as other amounts in the Account, shall be made
in both cash and M&T Bank Corporation Common Stock pro rata in accordance with the values of the
Participant’s M&T Bank Corporation Stock Deemed Investment Account and the balance of the
Participant’s Account.

     5.4 In the case of a Participant who is a “Specified Employee” a payment of that portion of
the Account attributable to Post-2004 Deferred Bonuses and the accretions thereon made on account
of separation from service may not be made before the date which is six months after the date of
separation from service (or, if earlier, the date of death of the Participant). For purposes of
this Section 5.4 “separation from service” shall be construed consistent with guidance issued by
the Department of the Treasury. For purposes of this Section 5.4, a “specified employee” is a key
employee as defined in Section 416 (i) of the Code (without regard to paragraph (5) thereof).

     5.5 Tax Withholding. The Plan Administrator may make such provisions and take such steps as
it may deem necessary or appropriate for the reporting and withholding by the Employers of all
Federal, state, local or other taxes required by law to be withheld or reported with respect to
deferrals and payments under this Plan, including, without limitation, in the discretion of the
Plan Administrator, (a) requiring the Participant (or Beneficiary, as the case may be) to pay, or
provide for payment of, the amount of any such taxes, (b) deducting any such taxes from any amount
otherwise payable to the Participant or Beneficiary in cash, including amounts payable under this
Plan, or (c) reducing the number of shares of M&T Bank Corporation Common Stock otherwise payable
under this Plan by an amount (based on the closing price of such shares on the Valuation Date
immediately preceding the date the shares would otherwise have been paid) equal to the amount of
any such taxes.

ARTICLE VI

BENEFICIARIES

     Each Participant may designate from time to time any person or persons, natural or otherwise,
as his Beneficiary or Beneficiaries to whom benefits under Section 5.1 are to be paid in the event
of his death. Each Beneficiary designation shall be made in a manner prescribed by the Plan
Administrator and shall be effective only when filed with the Plan Administrator during the
Participant’s lifetime. Each Beneficiary designation filed with the Plan Administrator shall
revoke all Beneficiary designations previously made by the Participant. The revocation of a
Beneficiary designation shall not require the consent of any designated Beneficiary. Payment to a
Beneficiary shall be made in the form or forms elected in the Participant’s Deferred Bonus
Agreement or Agreements, provided that such payment shall be made in a single payment if a request
for such a single payment is made by the Beneficiary and approved by the Plan Administrator.

ARTICLE VII

ADMINISTRATION

     7.1 General. The Plan Administrator shall be charged with the administration of this Plan.
The Plan Administrator shall have all such powers as may be necessary to discharge its duties
relative to the administration of this Plan, including by way of illustration and not limitation,
discretionary authority to interpret and construe this Plan, to decide any dispute arising
hereunder, to determine the right of any individual with respect to participation herein, to
determine the right of any Participant with respect to benefits payable under this Plan and to

operation of this Plan as it, in its sole discretion, may from time to time deem advisable. The
Plan Administrator shall not be liable to any person for any action taken or omitted in connection
with the interpretation and administration of this Plan unless attributable to willful misconduct
or lack of good faith. The Plan Administrator shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon all
tables, valuations, certificates, opinions and reports furnished by any actuary, accountant,
controller, counsel or other person employed or engaged by the Plan Administrator or an Employer
with respect to this Plan. The Plan Administrator, if an individual, or the members thereof if the
Plan Administrator is a Committee, shall not participate in any action or determination regarding
solely his or their own benefits payable hereunder. Except as provided in Section 7.3 hereof,
decisions of the Plan Administrator made in good faith shall be final, conclusive and binding upon
all parties.

Claimant, a statement of the specific reasons for the denial of the claim, references to the

needed material or information and why such material or information is necessary, and an
explanation of the claims review procedure as set forth herein. In addition, the written notice

          (b) the date on which the Claimant’s request was filed with the Plan Administrator; provided,
however, that the date on which the Claimant’s request for review was in fact filed with the Plan
Administrator shall control in the event that the date of the actual filing is later than the date
stated by the Claimant pursuant to this clause (b);

          (c) the specific portions of the denial of his claim which the Claimant requests the Plan
Administrator to review;

Administrator should reverse its previous denial of his claim for benefits and accept his claim as
made; and any written material (included as exhibits) which the Claimant desires the Plan
Administrator to examine in its consideration of his position as stated pursuant to clause (d).
Within 60 days of the date determined pursuant to clause (b) (or, if special circumstances require
an extension of time, within 120 days of such date), the Plan Administrator shall conduct a full
and fair review of the decision denying the Claimant’s claim for benefits and shall deliver, to the
Claimant in writing, its decision. Such written decision shall set forth, in a manner calculated
to be understood by the Claimant, a statement of the specific reasons for the decision, including
references to the specific provisions of this Plan which were relied upon. The decision will be
final and binding on all persons concerned.

judgment, such amendment or termination is necessary or desirable. Any such amendment or
termination shall be made in writing by the Board or its designee, if applicable, and shall be
effective as of the date specified in such document. No amendment or termination of this Plan
shall directly or indirectly deprive any Participant or Beneficiary of all or any portion of the

discretion, either to have the Employers make a single payment, at the time of such termination, of

Employer or by the merger or consolidation of an Employer into or with any other corporation or
other entity, but it shall be continued with respect to such Employer or its successor after such
sale, merger or consolidation only if and to the extent that the transferee, purchaser or successor
entity agrees to continue this Plan. In the event this Plan is not continued with respect to such
Employer or its successor by the transferee, purchaser or successor entity, then it shall terminate
with respect to such Employer or its successor subject to the provisions of Section 8.1 hereof.

ARTICLE IX

MISCELLANEOUS

     9.1 No Effect on Employment Rights. Nothing contained herein will confer upon any Participant
the right to be retained in the service of an Employer nor limit the right of an Employer to
discharge or otherwise deal with Participants without regard to the existence of this Plan.

-7-

 

     9.2 Plan Unfunded. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the benefits offered
hereunder shall constitute nothing more than unfunded, unsecured promises by each Employer to
pay the amounts that such Employer is obligated to pay under this Plan. No provision shall at any
time be made with respect to segregating any assets of any Employer for payment of any amounts
hereunder. No Participant, Beneficiary or any other person shall have any interest in any
particular assets of the Employers by reason of the right to receive a benefit under this Plan, and
any such Participant, Beneficiary or other person shall have only the rights of a general unsecured
creditor of the Employer obligated to make payments to the Participant under this Plan. Nothing
contained in this Plan shall constitute a guaranty by the Employers or any other entity or person
that the assets of any Employer will be sufficient to pay any amount hereunder. All expenses and
fees incurred in the administration of this Plan shall be paid by the Employers.

     9.3 Binding on Employers, Employees and Their Successors. This Plan shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the Employers, their successors and assigns and each Participant and his
heirs, executors, administrators and legal representatives. In the event of the merger or

of the assets of an Employer shall be transferred to another corporation, the successor corporation
resulting from the merger or consolidation, or the transferee of such assets, as the case may be,
shall, as a condition to the consummation of the merger, consolidation or sale, assume the
obligations of such Employer hereunder as of the date of such merger, consolidation or transfer and
shall be substituted for such Employer hereunder.

assign, pledge, encumber or charge prior to such receipt shall be void; and the Employers shall not
be liable in any manner for or subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities, torts or engagements
of any person entitled to any benefit under this Plan.

Administrator will make available for inspection by any Participant a copy of the rules and

the State of New York to the extent that such laws are not preempted by ERISA.

     9.7 Incapacity of Recipient. In the event a Participant or Beneficiary is declared
incompetent and a guardian, conservator or other person legally charged with the care of his person
or of his estate is appointed, any amounts to which such Participant or Beneficiary is entitled
under this Plan shall be paid to such guardian, conservator or other person legally charged with
the care of his person or his estate. Except as provided herein, when the Plan Administrator, in
its sole discretion, determines that a Participant or Beneficiary is unable to manage his financial
affairs, the Plan Administrator may direct the Employer, or Employers responsible for payment to
make payments to any person for the benefit of such Participant or Beneficiary.

     9.8 Unclaimed Benefit. Each Participant shall keep the Plan Administrator informed of his
current address. The Plan Administrator shall not be obligated to search for the whereabouts of
any person. If the location of a Participant is not made known to the Plan Administrator within

payment may be made as though the Participant had died at the end of the three-year period. If,
within one additional year

after such three-year period has elapsed, or, within three years after the actual death of a Participant, whichever occurs first, the Plan Administrator is unable to
locate the Beneficiary of the Participant, the Participant and his Beneficiary shall forfeit all
rights to any payments under this Plan.

required hereunder shall be deemed delivered to the Employers or the Plan Administrator as the case
may be: (a) on the date it is personally delivered to the Plan Administrator (with a copy to the

for any reason, such illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining provisions of this
Plan. This Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal or invalid provision had never
been contained herein.

shall be construed and enforced so as to maintain compliance with the transition guidance set forth
