NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Significant accounting policies

The consolidated financial statements of M&T Bank Corporation (“M&T”) and subsidiaries (“the Company”) were compiled in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) using the accounting policies set forth in note 1 of Notes to Financial Statements included in the 2009 Annual Report, except as described below. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been made and were all of a normal recurring nature.

2. Acquisitions

On August 28, 2009, M&T Bank, M&T’s principal banking subsidiary, entered into a purchase and assumption agreement with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) to assume all of the deposits and acquire certain assets of Bradford Bank (“Bradford”), Baltimore, Maryland. As part of the transaction, M&T Bank entered into a loss-share arrangement with the FDIC whereby M&T Bank will be reimbursed by the FDIC for most losses it incurs on the acquired loan portfolio. The transaction has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at estimated fair value on the acquisition date. Assets acquired totaled approximately $469 million, including $302 million of loans, and liabilities assumed aggregated $440 million, including $361 million of deposits. In accordance with GAAP, M&T Bank recorded an after-tax gain on the transaction of $18 million ($29 million before taxes) during the third quarter of 2009. There was no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded in connection with this transaction. The Bradford acquisition transaction did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated statement of position or results of operations.

On May 23, 2009, M&T acquired all of the outstanding common stock of Provident Bankshares Corporation (“Provident”), a bank holding company based in Baltimore, Maryland, in a stock-for-stock transaction. Provident Bank, Provident’s banking subsidiary, was merged into M&T Bank on that date. The results of operations acquired in the Provident transaction have been included in the Company’s financial results since May 23, 2009. Provident common shareholders received .171625 shares of M&T common stock in exchange for each share of Provident common stock, resulting in M&T issuing a total of 5,838,308 common shares with an acquisition date fair value of $273 million. In addition, based on the merger agreement, outstanding and unexercised options to purchase Provident common stock were converted into options to purchase the common stock of M&T. Those options had an estimated fair value of $1 million. In total, the purchase price was approximately $274 million based on the fair value on the acquisition date of M&T common stock exchanged and the options to purchase M&T common stock. Holders of Provident’s preferred stock were issued shares of new Series B and Series C Preferred Stock of M&T having substantially identical terms. That preferred stock and warrants to purchase common stock associated with the Series C Preferred Stock added $162 million to M&T’s stockholders’ equity.

The Provident transaction has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed and consideration exchanged were recorded at estimated fair value on the acquisition date. Assets acquired totaled $6.3 billion, including $4.0 billion of loans and leases (including approximately $1.7 billion of commercial real estate loans, $1.4 billion of consumer loans, $700 million of commercial loans and leases and $300 million of residential real estate loans) and $1.0 billion of investment securities. Liabilities assumed were $5.9 billion, including $5.1 billion of deposits. The transaction added $436 million to M&T’s stockholders’ equity, including $280 million of common equity and $156 million of preferred equity. In connection with the acquisition, the Company recorded $332 million of goodwill and $63 million of core deposit intangible. The core deposit intangible is being amortized over seven years using an accelerated method. The acquisition of Provident

expanded the Company’s presence in the Mid-Atlantic area, gave the Company the second largest deposit share in Maryland, and tripled the Company’s presence in Virginia.

In many cases, determining the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities required the Company to estimate cash flows expected to result from those assets and liabilities and to discount those cash flows at appropriate rates of interest. The most significant of these determinations related to the fair valuation of acquired loans. For such loans, the excess of cash flows expected at acquisition over the estimated fair value is recognized as interest income over the remaining lives of the loans. The difference between contractually required payments at acquisition and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition reflects the impact of estimated credit losses and other factors, such as prepayments. In accordance with GAAP, there was no carry-over of Provident’s previously established allowance for credit losses. Subsequent decreases in the expected cash flows require the Company to evaluate the need for additions to the Company’s allowance for credit losses. Subsequent improvements in expected cash flows generally result in the recognition of additional interest income over the then remaining lives of the loans.

In conjunction with the Provident acquisition, the acquired loan portfolio was accounted for at fair value as follows:


	May 23, 2009
	(in thousands)
Contractually required principal and interest at acquisition	$	5,465,167
Contractual cash flows not expected to be collected		(832,115	)

Expected cash flows at acquisition		4,633,052
Interest component of expected cash flows		(595,685	)

Basis in acquired loans at acquisition — estimated fair value	$	4,037,367

Interest income on acquired loans for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 was approximately $39 million and $78 million, respectively, and for the period from the date of acquisition to June 30, 2009 was $19 million. The outstanding principal balance and the carrying amount of these loans that is included in the consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2010 is as follows:


	(in thousands)
Outstanding principal balance	$	3,529,278
Carrying amount		3,322,344

Receivables (including loans and investment securities) obtained in the acquisition of Provident for which there was specific evidence of credit deterioration as of the acquisition date and for which it was probable that the Company would be unable to collect all contractually required principal and interest payments represent less than .25% of the Company’s assets and, accordingly, are not considered material.

In connection with the Provident transaction, the Company incurred merger-related expenses for professional services and other temporary help fees associated with the conversion of systems and/or integration of operations; costs related to branch and office consolidations; costs related to termination of existing Provident contractual arrangements for various services; initial marketing and promotion expenses designed to introduce M&T Bank to Provident’s

The following table discloses the impact of Provident (excluding the impact of merger-related expenses) since the acquisition on May 23, 2009 through the end of the second quarter of 2009. The table also presents certain pro forma information for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009 as if Provident had been acquired on January 1, 2009. These results combine the historical results of Provident into the Company’s consolidated statement of income and, while certain adjustments were made for the estimated impact of certain fair valuation adjustments and other acquisition-related activity, they are not indicative of what would have occurred had the acquisition taken place on January 1, 2009. In particular, no adjustments have been made to eliminate the amount of Provident’s provision for credit losses of $42 million or the impact of other-than-temporary impairment losses recognized by Provident of $87 million in 2009 that would not have been necessary had the acquired loans and investment securities been recorded at fair value as of the beginning of 2009. Furthermore, expenses related to systems conversions and other costs of integration are included in the 2009 periods in which such costs were incurred.

Additionally, the Company expects to achieve further operating cost savings and other business synergies as a result of the acquisition which are not reflected in the pro forma amounts that follow.

Gross realized gains and losses from sales of investment securities were not significant during the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009. The Company recognized $22 million and $49 million of pre-tax other-than-temporary impairment losses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. Approximately $12 million of the losses recognized in the second quarter of 2010 related to American Depositary Shares of Allied Irish Banks, p.l.c. (“AIB ADSs”) which were obtained in M&T’s acquisition of Allfirst Financial Inc. in 2003. The remaining losses in 2010 related to certain privately issued residential mortgage-backed securities and collateralized debt obligations backed by pooled trust preferred securities. The impairment charges related to the AIB ADSs were recognized due to mounting credit and other losses incurred by AIB and significant dilution of AIB common shareholders based on the Irish government’s significant ownership position. Other-than-temporary impairment losses on investment securities of $25 million and $57 million (pre-tax) were recognized by the Company for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and related to privately issued residential mortgage-backed securities. The impairment charges related to the privately issued residential mortgage-backed securities in the 2010 and 2009 periods were recognized in light of deterioration of housing values in the residential real estate market and a rise in delinquencies and charge-offs of underlying mortgage loans collateralizing those securities. The other-than-temporary impairment losses represent management’s estimate of credit losses inherent in the securities considering projected cash flows using assumptions of delinquency rates, loss severities, and other estimates of future collateral performance. The following table displays changes in credit losses for debt securities recognized in earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009.

The Company owned 369 individual investment securities with aggregate gross unrealized losses of $480 million at June 30, 2010. Approximately $412 million of the unrealized losses pertained to privately issued residential mortgage-backed securities with a cost basis of $2.0 billion. The Company also had $58 million of unrealized losses on trust preferred securities issued by financial institutions and securities backed by trust preferred securities issued by financial institutions and other entities having a cost basis of $171 million. Based on a review of each of the securities in the investment securities portfolio at June 30, 2010, with the exception of the aforementioned securities for which other-than-temporary impairment losses were recognized, the Company concluded that it expected to recover the amortized cost basis of its investment. As of June 30, 2010, the Company does not intend to sell nor is it anticipated that it would be required to sell any of its impaired investment securities. At June 30, 2010, the Company has not identified events or changes in circumstances which may have a significant adverse effect on the fair value of the $466 million of cost method investment securities.

Except for consumer and residential mortgage loans that are considered smaller balance homogenous loans and are evaluated collectively, the Company considers a loan to be impaired for purposes of applying GAAP when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement or the loan is delinquent 90 days, or for purchased impaired loans when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all cash flows expected at acquisition plus additional cash flows expected to be collected arising from changes in estimates after acquisition. Regardless of loan type, the Company considers a loan to be impaired if it qualifies as a troubled debt restructuring. Impaired loans are classified as either nonaccrual or as loans renegotiated at below market rates, with the exception of acquired impaired loans which continue to accrete income in accordance with GAAP. Loans less than 90 days delinquent are deemed to have an insignificant delay in payment and are generally not considered impaired. Impairment of a loan is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s observable market price, or the fair value of collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.

The recorded investment in loans considered impaired for purposes of applying GAAP was $1.1 billion and $1.3 billion at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. The recorded investment in loans considered impaired for which there was a related valuation allowance for impairment included in the allowance for credit losses and the amount of such impairment allowance were $856 million and $214 million, respectively, at June 30, 2010 and $1.1 billion and $244 million, respectively, at December 31, 2009. The recorded investment in loans considered impaired for which there was no related valuation allowance for impairment was $262 million and $234 million at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

5. Borrowings

The Company had $1.2 billion of fixed and floating rate junior subordinated deferrable interest debentures (“Junior Subordinated Debentures”) outstanding at June 30, 2010 which are held by various trusts that were issued in connection with the issuance by those trusts of preferred capital securities (“Capital Securities”) and common securities (“Common Securities”). The proceeds from the issuances of the Capital Securities and the Common Securities were used by the trusts to purchase the Junior Subordinated Debentures. The Common Securities of each of those trusts are wholly owned by M&T and are the only class of each trust’s securities possessing general voting powers. The Capital Securities represent preferred undivided interests in the assets of the corresponding trust.

5. Borrowings, continued

Under the Federal Reserve Board’s current risk-based capital guidelines, the Capital Securities are includable in M&T’s Tier 1 capital. The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 was signed into law on July 21, 2010. One of its provisions is for a three-year phase-in related to the exclusion of trust preferred capital securities from Tier 1 capital for large financial institutions, including M&T. That phase-in period begins on January 1, 2013.

Holders of the Capital Securities receive preferential cumulative cash distributions unless M&T exercises its right to extend the payment of interest on the Junior Subordinated Debentures as allowed by the terms of each such debenture, in which case payment of distributions on the respective Capital Securities will be deferred for comparable periods. During an extended interest period, M&T may not pay dividends or distributions on, or repurchase, redeem or acquire any shares of its capital stock. In the event of an extended interest period exceeding twenty quarterly periods for $350 million of Junior Subordinated Debentures due January 31, 2068, M&T must fund the payment of accrued and unpaid interest through an alternative payment mechanism, which requires M&T to issue common stock, non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock or warrants to purchase common stock until M&T has raised an amount of eligible proceeds at least equal to the aggregate amount of accrued and unpaid deferred interest on the Junior Subordinated Debentures due January 31, 2068. In general, the agreements governing the Capital Securities, in the aggregate, provide a full, irrevocable and unconditional guarantee by M&T of the payment of distributions on, the redemption of, and any liquidation distribution with respect to the Capital Securities. The obligations under such guarantee and the Capital Securities are subordinate and junior in right of payment to all senior indebtedness of M&T.

The Capital Securities will remain outstanding until the Junior Subordinated Debentures are repaid at maturity, are redeemed prior to maturity or are distributed in liquidation to the Trusts. The Capital Securities are mandatorily redeemable in whole, but not in part, upon repayment at the stated maturity dates (ranging from 2027 to 2068) of the Junior Subordinated Debentures or the earlier redemption of the Junior Subordinated Debentures in whole upon the occurrence of one or more events set forth in the indentures relating to the Capital Securities, and in whole or in part at any time after an optional redemption prior to contractual maturity contemporaneously with the optional redemption of the related Junior Subordinated Debentures in whole or in part, subject to possible regulatory approval. In connection with the issuance of 8.50% Enhanced Trust Preferred Securities associated with $350 million of Junior Subordinated Debentures maturing in 2068, M&T entered into a replacement capital covenant that provides that neither M&T nor any of its subsidiaries will repay, redeem or purchase any of the Junior Subordinated Debentures due January 31, 2068 or the 8.50% Enhanced Trust Preferred Securities prior to January 31, 2048, with certain limited exceptions, except to the extent that, during the 180 days prior to the date of that repayment, redemption or purchase, M&T and its subsidiaries have received proceeds from the sale of qualifying securities that (i) have equity-like characteristics that are the same as, or more equity-like than, the applicable characteristics of the 8.50% Enhanced Trust Preferred Securities or the Junior Subordinated Debentures due January 31, 2068, as applicable, at the time of repayment, redemption or purchase, and (ii) M&T has obtained the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board, if required.

Including the unamortized portions of purchase accounting adjustments to reflect estimated fair value at the acquisition dates of the Common Securities of various trusts, the Junior Subordinated Debentures associated with Capital Securities had financial statement carrying values of $1.2 billion at each of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

(a)		Shares were issued as part of the Troubled Asset Relief Program — Capital Purchase Program of the U.S. Department of Treasury (“U.S. Treasury”). Cash proceeds were allocated between the preferred stock and a ten-year warrant to purchase M&T common stock (Series A — 1,218,522 common shares at $73.86 per share, Series C — 407,542 common shares at $55.76 per share). Dividends, if declared, will accrue and be paid quarterly at a rate of 5% per year for the first five years following the original 2008 issuance dates and thereafter at a rate of 9% per year. The agreement with the U.S. Treasury contains limitations on certain actions of M&T, including the payment of quarterly cash dividends on M&T’s common stock in excess of $.70 per share, the repurchase of its common stock during the first three years of the agreement, and the amount and nature of compensation arrangements for certain of the Company’s officers.

(b)		Shares were assumed in the Provident acquisition and a new Series B Preferred Stock was designated. In the aggregate, the shares of Series B Preferred Stock will automatically convert into 433,148 shares of M&T common stock on April 1, 2011, but shareholders may elect to convert their preferred shares at any time prior to that date. Dividends, if declared, are payable quarterly in arrears at a rate of 10% per year.

(c)		Shares were assumed in the Provident acquisition and a new Series C Preferred Stock was designated.

GAAP defines unvested share-based awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) as participating securities that shall be included in the computation of earnings per common share pursuant to the two-class method. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company issued stock-based compensation awards in the form of restricted stock and restricted stock units, which, in accordance with GAAP, are considered participating securities.

Stock-based compensation awards, warrants to purchase common stock of M&T and preferred stock convertible into shares of M&T stock representing approximately 10.7 million and 15.2 million common shares during the three-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and 11.3 million and 15.1 million common shares during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, were not included in the computations of diluted earnings per common share because the effect on those periods would have been antidilutive.

10. Derivative financial instruments

As part of managing interest rate risk, the Company enters into interest rate swap agreements to modify the repricing characteristics of certain portions of the Company’s portfolios of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The Company designates interest rate swap agreements utilized in the management of interest rate risk as either fair value hedges or cash flow hedges. Interest rate swap agreements are generally entered into with counterparties that meet established credit standards and most contain master netting and collateral provisions protecting the at-risk party. Based on adherence to the Company’s credit standards and the presence of the netting and collateral provisions, the Company believes that the credit risk inherent in these contracts is not significant as of June 30, 2010.

The net effect of interest rate swap agreements was to increase net interest income by $11 million and $10 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $22 million and $17 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

10. Derivative financial instruments, continued

The Company utilizes commitments to sell residential and commercial real estate loans to hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value of real estate loans held for sale. Such commitments have generally been designated as fair value hedges. The Company also utilizes commitments to sell real estate loans to offset the exposure to changes in fair value of certain commitments to originate real estate loans for sale.

Derivative financial instruments used for trading purposes included interest rate contracts, foreign exchange and other option contracts, foreign exchange forward and spot contracts, and financial futures. Interest rate contracts entered into for trading purposes had notional values of $12.4 billion and $13.9 billion at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. The notional amounts of foreign currency and other option and futures contracts entered into for trading purposes aggregated $680 million and $608 million at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

In addition, the Company also has commitments to sell and commitments to originate residential and commercial real estate loans that are considered derivatives. The Company designates certain of the commitments to sell real estate loans as fair value hedges of real estate loans held for sale. The Company also utilizes commitments to sell real estate loans to offset the exposure to changes in the fair value of certain commitments to originate real estate loans for sale. As a result of these activities, net unrealized pre-tax gains related to hedged loans held for sale, commitments to originate loans for sale and commitments to sell loans were approximately $22 million and $20 million at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. Changes in unrealized gains and losses are included in mortgage banking revenues and, in general, are realized in subsequent periods as the related loans are sold and commitments satisfied.

The aggregate fair value of derivative financial instruments in a net liability position at June 30, 2010 for which the Company was required to post collateral was $280 million. The fair value of collateral posted for such instruments was $274 million.

The Company’s credit exposure with respect to the estimated fair value as of June 30, 2010 of interest rate swap agreements used for managing interest rate risk has been substantially mitigated through master netting agreements with trading account interest rate contracts with the same counterparties as well as counterparty postings of $58 million of collateral with the Company.

11. Variable interest entities and asset securitizations

Effective January 1, 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) amended accounting guidance relating to the consolidation of variable interest entities to eliminate the quantitative approach previously required for determining the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. The amended guidance instead requires a reporting entity to qualitatively assess the determination of the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity based on whether the reporting entity has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the variable interest entity’s economic performance and has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the variable interest entity that could potentially be significant to the variable interest entity. The amended guidance requires ongoing reassessments of whether the reporting entity is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity.

Also effective January 1, 2010, the FASB amended accounting guidance relating to accounting for transfers of financial assets to eliminate the exceptions for qualifying special-purpose entities from the consolidation guidance and the exception that permitted sale accounting for certain mortgage securitizations when a transferor has not surrendered control over the transferred assets. The recognition and measurement provisions of the amended guidance were required to be applied prospectively. Additionally, beginning January 1, 2010, the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity is no longer relevant for accounting purposes. Therefore, formerly qualifying special-purpose entities had to be re-evaluated for consolidation in accordance with applicable consolidation guidance, including the new accounting guidance relating to the consolidation of variable interest entities discussed in the previous paragraph.

11. Variable interest entities and asset securitizations, continued

In 2002 and 2003, the Company transferred approximately $1.9 billion of one-to-four family residential mortgage loans to qualified special-purpose trusts in two non-recourse securitization transactions. In exchange for the loans, the Company received cash, no more than 88% of the resulting securities, and the servicing rights to the loans. Through December 31, 2009, all of the retained securities were classified as investment securities available for sale as the qualified special-purpose trusts were not included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Effective January 1, 2010, the Company determined that it was the primary beneficiary of both securitization trusts under the amended consolidation rules considering its role as servicer and its retained subordinated interests in the trusts. As a result, beginning January 1, 2010, the Company has included the one-to-four family residential mortgage loans that were included in the two non-recourse securitization transactions in its consolidated financial statements. The effect of that consolidation on January 1, 2010 was to increase loans receivable by $424 million, decrease the amortized cost of available-for-sale investment securities by $360 million (fair value of $355 million), and increase borrowings by $65 million. The transition adjustment at January 1, 2010 as a result of the Company’s adoption of the new accounting requirements was not significant. In the second quarter of 2010, the 2002 securitization trust was terminated as the Company exercised its right to purchase the underlying mortgage loans pursuant to the clean-up call provisions of the qualified special-purpose trust. At June 30, 2010, the carrying value of the loans in the remaining securitization trust was $302 million. The outstanding principal amount of mortgage-backed securities issued by the qualified special-purpose trust was $305 million at June 30, 2010 and the principal amount of such securities held by the Company was $260 million. The remainder of the outstanding mortgage-backed securities were held by parties unrelated to M&T. Because the transaction was non-recourse, the Company’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its association with the trust at June 30, 2010 is limited to realizing the carrying value of the loans less the $45 million carrying value of the mortgage-backed securities outstanding to third parties.

In the first quarter of 2009, the Company securitized approximately $141 million of one-to-four family residential mortgage loans in guaranteed mortgage securitizations with Fannie Mae. The Company recognized no gain or loss on the transactions as it retained all of the resulting securities. Such securities were classified as investment securities available for sale. The Company expects no material credit-related losses on the retained securities as a result of the guarantees by Fannie Mae.

Other variable interest entities in which the Company holds a variable interest are described below.

M&T has a variable interest in a trust that holds AIB ADSs for the purpose of satisfying options to purchase such shares for certain employees. The trust purchased the AIB ADSs with the proceeds of a loan from an entity subsequently acquired by M&T. Proceeds from option exercises and any dividends and other earnings on the trust assets are used to repay the loan plus interest. Option holders have no preferential right with respect to the trust assets and the trust assets are subject to the claims of M&T’s creditors. The trust has been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. As a result, included in investment securities available for sale were 591,813 AIB ADSs with a carrying value of approximately $1 million and $2 million at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. Outstanding options granted to employees who have continued service with M&T totaled 184,350 and 189,450 at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. All outstanding options were fully vested and exercisable at both June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009. The options expire at

various dates through October 2011. The AIB ADSs are included in available for sale investment securities and have a fair value and an amortized cost of $1 million at June 30, 2010. An other-than-temporary impairment charge of $12 million was recognized during the second quarter of 2010 on the AIB ADSs due to adverse developments impacting AIB, including significant dilution of AIB common shareholders and further deterioration of AIB’s financial condition.

As described in note 5, M&T has issued Junior Subordinated Debentures payable to various trusts that have issued Capital Securities. M&T owns the common securities of those trust entities. The Company is not considered to be the primary beneficiary of those entities and, accordingly, the trusts are not included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. At June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company included the Junior Subordinated Debentures as “long-term borrowings” in its consolidated balance sheet. The Company has recognized $34 million in other assets for its “investment” in the common securities of the trusts that will be concomitantly repaid to M&T by the respective trust from the proceeds of M&T’s repayment of the Junior Subordinated Debentures associated with Capital Securities described in note 5.

The Company has invested as a limited partner in various real estate partnerships that collectively had total assets of approximately $1.1 billion and $1.0 billion at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. Those partnerships generally construct or acquire properties for which the investing partners are eligible to receive certain federal income tax credits in accordance with government guidelines. Such investments may also provide tax deductible losses to the partners. The partnership investments also assist the Company in achieving its community reinvestment initiatives. As a limited partner, there is no recourse to the Company by creditors of the partnerships. However, the tax credits that result from the Company’s investments in such partnerships are generally subject to recapture should a partnership fail to comply with the respective government regulations. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss of its investments in such partnerships was $238 million, including $77 million of unfunded commitments, at June 30, 2010 and $246 million, including $89 million of unfunded commitments, at December 31, 2009. The Company has not provided financial or other support to the partnerships that was not contractually required. Management currently estimates that no material losses are probable as a result of the Company’s involvement with such entities. In accordance with the accounting provisions for variable interest entities, the Company, in its position as limited partner, does not direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the partnerships and therefore, the partnership entities are not included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

12. Fair value measurements

GAAP permits an entity to choose to measure eligible financial instruments and other items at fair value. The Company has not made any fair value elections at June 30, 2010.

Pursuant to GAAP, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A three-level hierarchy exists in GAAP for fair value measurements based upon the inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability.

12. Fair value measurements, continued

	•		Level 1 — Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

	•		Level 2 — Valuation is determined from quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active or by model-based techniques in which all significant inputs are observable in the market.

	•		Level 3 — Valuation is derived from model-based and other techniques in which at least one significant input is unobservable and which may be based on the Company’s own estimates about the assumptions that market participants would use to value the asset or liability.

When available, the Company attempts to use quoted market prices in active markets to determine fair value and classifies such items as Level 1 or Level 2. If quoted market prices in active markets are not available, fair value is often determined using model-based techniques incorporating various assumptions including interest rates, prepayment speeds and credit losses. Assets and liabilities valued using model-based techniques are classified as either Level 2 or Level 3, depending on the lowest level classification of an input that is considered significant to the overall valuation. The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured on a recurring basis at estimated fair value.

Trading account assets and liabilities

Trading account assets and liabilities consist primarily of interest rate swap agreements and foreign exchange contracts with customers who require such services with offsetting trading positions with third parties to minimize the Company’s risk with respect to such transactions. The Company generally determines the fair value of its derivative trading account assets and liabilities using externally developed pricing models based on market observable inputs and therefore classifies such valuations as Level 2. Prices for certain foreign exchange contracts are more observable and therefore have been classified as Level 1. Mutual funds held in connection with deferred compensation arrangements have also been classified as Level 1 valuations. Valuations of investments in municipal and other bonds can generally be obtained through reference to quoted prices in less active markets for the same or similar securities or through model-based techniques in which all significant inputs are observable and, therefore, such valuations have been classified as Level 2.

Investment securities available for sale

The majority of the Company’s available-for-sale investment securities have been valued by reference to prices for similar securities or through model-based techniques in which all significant inputs are observable and, therefore, such valuations have been classified as Level 2. Certain investments in mutual funds and equity securities are actively traded and therefore have been classified as Level 1 valuations.

Trading activity in privately issued mortgage-backed securities has been limited. The markets for such securities were generally characterized by a sharp reduction of non-agency mortgage-backed securities issuances, a significant reduction in trading volumes and extremely wide bid-ask spreads, all driven by the lack of market participants. Although estimated prices were generally obtained for such securities, the Company was significantly restricted in the level of market observable assumptions used in the valuation of its privately issued mortgage-backed securities portfolio. Specifically, market assumptions regarding credit adjusted cash flows and liquidity influences on discount rates

were difficult to observe at the individual bond level. Because of the inactivity in the markets and the lack of observable valuation inputs, the Company has classified the valuation of privately issued mortgage-backed securities as Level 3.

In April 2009, the FASB issued new accounting rules that provided guidance for estimating fair value when the volume and level of trading activity for an asset or liability have significantly decreased. The Company has concluded that there has been a significant decline in the volume and level of activity in the market for privately issued mortgage-backed securities. Therefore, the Company supplemented its determination of fair value for many of its privately issued mortgage-backed securities by obtaining pricing indications from two independent sources at June 30, 2010. However, the Company could not readily ascertain that the basis of such valuations could be ascribed to orderly and observable trades in the market for privately issued residential mortgage-backed securities. As a result, the Company also performed internal modeling to estimate the cash flows and fair value of 144 of its privately issued residential mortgage-backed securities with an amortized cost basis of $1.7 billion at June 30, 2010. The Company’s internal modeling techniques included discounting estimated bond-specific cash flows using assumptions about cash flows associated with loans underlying each of the bonds, including estimates about the timing and amount of credit losses and prepayments. In estimating those cash flows, the Company used assumptions as to future delinquency, defaults and loss rates, including assumptions for further home price depreciation. Differences between internal model valuations and external pricing indications were generally considered to be reflective of the lack of liquidity in the market for privately issued mortgage-backed securities given the nature of the cash flow modeling performed in the Company’s assessment of value. To determine the point within the range of potential values that was most representative of fair value under current market conditions for each of the 144 bonds, the Company computed values based on judgmentally applied weightings of the internal model valuations and the indications obtained from the average of the two independent pricing sources. Weightings applied to internal model valuations generally ranged from zero to 40% depending on bond structure and collateral type, with prices for bonds in non-senior tranches generally receiving lower weightings on the internal model results and senior bonds receiving a higher model weighting. Weighted-average reliance on internal model pricing for the bonds modeled was 37% with a 63% average weighting placed on the values provided by the independent sources. The Company concluded its estimate of fair value for the $1.7 billion of privately issued residential mortgage-backed securities to approximate $1.5 billion, which implies a weighted-average market yield based on reasonably likely cash flows of 9.25%. Other valuations of privately issued residential mortgage-backed securities were determined by reference to independent pricing sources without adjustment.

Included in collateralized debt obligations are securities backed by trust preferred securities issued by financial institutions and other entities. Given the severe disruption in the credit markets and lack of observable trade information, the Company could not obtain pricing indications for many of these securities from its two primary independent pricing sources. The Company, therefore, performed internal modeling to estimate the cash flows and fair value of its portfolio of securities backed by trust preferred securities at June 30, 2010. The modeling techniques included discounting estimated cash flows using bond-specific assumptions about defaults, deferrals and prepayments of the trust preferred securities underlying each bond. The estimation of cash flows included assumptions as to future collateral defaults and related loss severities. The resulting cash flows were then discounted by reference to market yields observed in the single-name trust preferred securities market. At June 30, 2010, the total amortized cost and fair value of securities backed by trust preferred securities issued by financial institutions and other entities was $99 million and $118 million, respectively. Privately issued mortgage-backed securities and

securities backed by trust preferred securities issued by financial institutions and other entities constituted all of the available-for-sale investment securities classified as Level 3 valuations as of June 30, 2010.

Real estate loans held for sale

The Company utilizes commitments to sell real estate loans to hedge the exposure to changes in fair value of real estate loans held for sale. The carrying value of hedged real estate loans held for sale includes changes in estimated fair value during the hedge period. Typically, the Company attempts to hedge real estate loans held for sale from the date of close through the sale date. The fair value of hedged real estate loans held for sale is generally calculated by reference to quoted prices in secondary markets for commitments to sell real estate loans with similar characteristics and, accordingly, such loans have been classified as a Level 2 valuation.

Commitments to originate real estate loans for sale and commitments to sell real estate loans

The Company enters into various commitments to originate real estate loans for sale and commitments to sell real estate loans. Such commitments are considered to be derivative financial instruments and, therefore, are carried at estimated fair value on the consolidated balance sheet. The estimated fair values of such commitments were generally calculated by reference to quoted prices in secondary markets for commitments to sell real estate loans to certain government-sponsored entities and other parties. The fair valuations of commitments to sell real estate loans generally result in a Level 2 classification. The estimated fair value of commitments to originate real estate loans for sale are adjusted to reflect the Company’s anticipated commitment expirations. Estimated commitment expirations are considered a significant unobservable input, which results in a Level 3 classification. The Company includes the expected net future cash flows related to the associated servicing of the loan in the fair value measurement of a derivative loan commitment. The estimated value ascribed to the expected net future servicing cash flows is also considered a significant unobservable input contributing to the Level 3 classification of commitments to originate real estate loans for sale.

Interest rate swap agreements used for interest rate risk management

The Company utilizes interest rate swap agreements as part of the management of interest rate risk to modify the repricing characteristics of certain portions of its portfolios of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The Company generally determines the fair value of its interest rate swap agreements using externally developed pricing models based on market observable inputs and therefore classifies such valuations as Level 2. The Company has considered counterparty credit risk in the valuation of its interest rate swap assets and has considered its own credit risk in the valuation of its interest rate swap liabilities.

The Company is required, on a nonrecurring basis, to adjust the carrying value of certain assets or provide valuation allowances related to certain assets using fair value measurements.

Loans

Loans are generally not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Periodically, the Company records nonrecurring adjustments to the carrying value of loans based on fair value measurements for partial charge-offs of the uncollectible portions of those loans. Nonrecurring adjustments also include certain impairment amounts for collateral-dependent loans when establishing the allowance for credit losses. Such amounts are generally based on the fair value of the underlying collateral supporting the loan and, as a result, the carrying value of the loan less the calculated valuation amount does not necessarily represent the fair value of the loan. Real estate collateral is typically valued using appraisals or other indications of value based on recent comparable sales of similar properties or assumptions generally observable in the marketplace and the related nonrecurring fair value measurement adjustments have generally been classified as Level 2, unless significant adjustments have been made to the valuation that are not readily observable by market participants. Estimates of fair value used for other collateral supporting commercial loans generally are based on assumptions not observable in the marketplace and therefore such valuations have been classified as Level 3. Loans subject to nonrecurring fair value measurement were $664 million at June 30, 2010, ($378 million and $286 million of which were classified as Level 2 and Level 3, respectively) and $632 million at June 30, 2009 ($303 million and $329 million of which were classified as Level 2 and Level 3, respectively). Changes in fair value recognized for partial charge-offs of loans and loan impairment reserves on loans held by the Company on June 30, 2010 were decreases of $64 million and $125 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, and on loans held by the Company on June 30, 2009 were decreases of $157 million and $238 million for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively.

Capitalized servicing rights

Capitalized servicing rights are initially measured at fair value in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. The Company utilizes the amortization method to subsequently measure its capitalized servicing assets. In accordance with GAAP, the Company must record impairment charges, on a nonrecurring basis, when the carrying value of certain strata exceed their estimated fair value. To estimate the fair value of servicing rights, the Company considers market prices for similar assets, if available, and the present value of expected future cash flows associated with the servicing rights calculated using assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future servicing income and expense. Such assumptions include estimates of the cost of servicing loans, loan default rates, an appropriate discount rate, and prepayment speeds. For purposes of evaluating and measuring impairment of capitalized servicing rights, the Company stratifies such assets based on the predominant risk characteristics of the underlying financial instruments that are expected to have the most impact on projected prepayments, cost of servicing and other factors affecting future cash flows associated with the servicing rights. Such factors may include financial asset or loan type, note rate and term. The amount of impairment recognized is the amount by which the carrying value of the capitalized servicing rights for a stratum exceed estimated fair value. Impairment is recognized through a valuation allowance. The determination of fair value of capitalized servicing rights is considered a Level 3 valuation. At June 30, 2010, $18 million of capitalized servicing rights had a carrying value equal to their fair value. The change in fair value of capitalized servicing rights recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 was a decrease of $2 million. At June 30, 2009,

$30 million of capitalized servicing rights had a carrying value equal to their fair value. Changes in fair value of capitalized servicing rights recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 were increases of $13 million and $18 million, respectively.

Assets taken in foreclosure of defaulted loans

Assets taken in foreclosure of defaulted loans are primarily comprised of commercial and residential real property and are generally measured at the lower of cost or fair value less costs to sell. The fair value of the real property is generally determined using appraisals or other indications of value based on recent comparable sales of similar properties or assumptions generally observable in the marketplace, and the related nonrecurring fair value measurement adjustments have generally been classified as Level 2. Assets taken in foreclosure of defaulted loans subject to nonrecurring fair value measurement were $127 million and $21 million at June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009, respectively. Changes in fair value recognized for those foreclosed assets held by the Company at June 30, 2010 were $16 million and $21 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. Changes in fair value recognized for those foreclosed assets held by the Company at June 30, 2009 were $21 million and $22 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively.

Disclosures of fair value of financial instruments

With the exception of marketable securities, certain off-balance sheet financial instruments and one-to-four family residential mortgage loans originated for sale, the Company’s financial instruments are not readily marketable and market prices do not exist. The Company, in attempting to comply with the provisions of GAAP that require disclosures of fair value of financial instruments, has not attempted to market its financial instruments to potential buyers, if any exist. Since negotiated prices in illiquid markets depend greatly upon the then present motivations of the buyer and seller, it is reasonable to assume that actual sales prices could vary widely from any estimate of fair value made without the benefit of negotiations. Additionally, changes in market interest rates can dramatically impact the value of financial instruments in a short period of time. Additional information about the assumptions and calculations utilized follows.

The carrying amounts and calculated estimates of fair value for financial instrument assets (liabilities) are presented in the following table:

12. Fair value measurements, continued

The following assumptions, methods and calculations were used in determining the estimated fair value of financial instruments not measured at fair value in the consolidated balance sheet.

Cash and cash equivalents, interest-bearing deposits at banks, short-term borrowings, accrued interest receivable and accrued interest payable

Due to the nature of cash and cash equivalents and the near maturity of interest-bearing deposits at banks, short-term borrowings, accrued interest receivable and accrued interest payable, the Company estimated that the carrying amount of such instruments approximated estimated fair value.

Investment securities

Estimated fair values of investments in readily marketable securities were generally based on quoted market prices. Investment securities that were not readily marketable were assigned amounts based on estimates provided by outside parties or modeling techniques that relied upon discounted calculations of projected cash flows or, in the case of other investment securities, which include capital stock of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York, at an amount equal to the carrying amount.

Loans and leases

In general, discount rates used to calculate values for loan products were based on the Company’s pricing at the respective period end and included appropriate adjustments for expected credit losses. A higher discount rate was assumed with respect to estimated cash flows associated with nonaccrual loans. Projected loan cash flows were adjusted for estimated credit losses. However, such estimates made by the Company may not be indicative of assumptions and adjustments that a purchaser of the Company’s loans and leases would seek.

Deposits

Pursuant to GAAP, the estimated fair value ascribed to noninterest-bearing deposits, savings deposits and NOW accounts must be established at carrying value because of the customers’ ability to withdraw funds immediately. Time deposit accounts are required to be revalued based upon prevailing market interest rates for similar maturity instruments. As a result, amounts assigned to time deposits were based on discounted cash flow calculations using prevailing market interest rates based on the Company’s pricing at the respective date for deposits with comparable remaining terms to maturity.

The Company believes that deposit accounts have a value greater than that prescribed by GAAP. The Company feels, however, that the value associated with these deposits is greatly influenced by characteristics of the buyer, such as the ability to reduce the costs of servicing the deposits and deposit attrition which often occurs following an acquisition.

Long-term borrowings

The amounts assigned to long-term borrowings were based on quoted market prices, when available, or were based on discounted cash flow calculations using prevailing market interest rates for borrowings of similar terms and credit risk.

Interest rate swap agreements used for interest rate risk management

The estimated fair value of interest rate swap agreements used for interest rate risk management represents the amount the Company would have expected to receive or pay to terminate such agreements.

Other commitments and contingencies

As described in note 13, in the normal course of business, various commitments and contingent liabilities are outstanding, such as loan commitments, credit guarantees and letters of credit. The Company’s pricing of such financial instruments is based largely on credit quality and relationship, probability of funding and other requirements. Loan commitments often have fixed expiration dates and contain termination and other clauses which provide for relief from funding in the event of significant deterioration in the credit quality of the customer. The rates and terms of the Company’s loan commitments, credit guarantees and letters of credit are competitive with other financial institutions operating in markets served by the Company. The Company believes that the carrying amounts, which are included in other liabilities, are reasonable estimates of the fair value of these financial instruments.

The Company does not believe that the estimated information presented herein is representative of the earnings power or value of the Company. The preceding analysis, which is inherently limited in depicting fair value, also does not consider any value associated with existing customer relationships nor the ability of the Company to create value through loan origination, deposit gathering or fee generating activities.

Many of the estimates presented herein are based upon the use of highly subjective information and assumptions and, accordingly, the results may not be precise. Management believes that fair value estimates may not be comparable between financial institutions due to the wide range of permitted valuation techniques and numerous estimates which must be made. Furthermore, because the disclosed fair value amounts were estimated as of the balance sheet date, the amounts actually realized or paid upon maturity or settlement of the various financial instruments could be significantly different.

In the normal course of business, various commitments and contingent liabilities are outstanding. The following table presents the Company’s significant commitments. Certain of these commitments are not included in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

Financial guarantees and indemnification contracts		1,759,008		1,633,549

Commitments to sell real estate loans		979,309		1,239,001

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to customers, generally having fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses that may require payment of a fee. Standby and commercial letters of credit are conditional commitments issued to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Standby letters of credit generally are contingent upon the failure of the customer to perform according to the terms of the underlying contract with the third party, whereas commercial letters of credit are issued to facilitate commerce and typically result in the commitment being funded when the underlying transaction is consummated between the customer and a third party. The credit risk associated with commitments to extend credit and standby and commercial letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved with extending loans to customers and is subject to normal credit policies. Collateral may be obtained based on management’s assessment of the customer’s creditworthiness.

Financial guarantees and indemnification contracts are oftentimes similar to standby letters of credit and include mandatory purchase agreements issued to ensure that customer obligations are fulfilled, recourse obligations associated with sold loans, and other guarantees of customer performance or compliance with designated rules and regulations. Included in financial guarantees and indemnification contracts are loan principal amounts sold with recourse in conjunction with the Company’s involvement in the Federal National Mortgage Association Delegated Underwriting and Servicing program. The Company’s maximum credit risk for recourse associated with loans sold under this program totaled approximately $1.5 billion and $1.3 billion at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

Since many loan commitments, standby letters of credit, and guarantees and indemnification contracts expire without being funded in whole or in part, the contract amounts are not necessarily indicative of future cash flows.

13. Commitments and contingencies, continued

The Company utilizes commitments to sell real estate loans to hedge exposure to changes in the fair value of real estate loans held for sale. Such commitments are considered derivatives and along with commitments to originate real estate loans to be held for sale are generally recorded in the consolidated balance sheet at estimated fair market value.

The Company has an agreement with the Baltimore Ravens of the National Football League whereby the Company obtained the naming rights to a football stadium in Baltimore, Maryland. Under the agreement, the Company is obligated to pay $5 million per year through 2013 and $6 million per year from 2014 through 2017.

The Company also has commitments under long-term operating leases.

The Company reinsures credit life and accident and health insurance purchased by consumer loan customers. The Company also enters into reinsurance contracts with third party insurance companies who insure against the risk of a mortgage borrower’s payment default in connection with certain mortgage loans originated by the Company. When providing reinsurance coverage, the Company receives a premium in exchange for accepting a portion of the insurer’s risk of loss. The outstanding loan principal balances reinsured by the Company were approximately $91 million at June 30, 2010. Assets of subsidiaries providing reinsurance that are available to satisfy claims totaled approximately $73 million at June 30, 2010. The amounts noted above are not necessarily indicative of losses which may ultimately be incurred. Such losses are expected to be substantially less because most loans are repaid by borrowers in accordance with the original loan terms. Management believes any reinsurance losses that may be payable by the Company will not be material to the Company’s consolidated financial position.

The Company is contractually obligated to repurchase previously sold residential mortgage loans that do not ultimately meet investor sale criteria related to underwriting procedures or loan documentation. When required to do so, the Company may reimburse loan purchasers for losses incurred or may repurchase certain loans. The Company reduces residential mortgage banking revenues by an estimate for losses related to its obligations to loan purchasers. The amount of those charges is based on the volume of loans sold, the level of reimbursement requests received from loan purchasers and estimates of losses that may be associated with previously sold loans. At June 30, 2010, management believes that any remaining liability arising out of the Company’s obligation to loan purchasers is not material to the Company’s consolidated financial position.

M&T and its subsidiaries are subject in the normal course of business to various pending and threatened legal proceedings in which claims for monetary damages are asserted. Management, after consultation with legal counsel, does not anticipate that the aggregate ultimate liability arising out of litigation pending against M&T or its subsidiaries will be material to the Company’s consolidated financial position, but at the present time is not in a position to determine whether such litigation will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations in any future reporting period.

14. Segment information

Reportable segments have been determined based upon the Company’s internal profitability reporting system, which is organized by strategic business unit. Certain strategic business units have been combined for segment information reporting purposes where the nature of the products and services, the type of customer and the distribution of those products and services are similar. The

14. Segment information, continued

reportable segments are Business Banking, Commercial Banking, Commercial Real Estate, Discretionary Portfolio, Residential Mortgage Banking and Retail Banking.

The financial information of the Company’s segments was compiled utilizing the accounting policies described in note 22 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2009. The management accounting policies and processes utilized in compiling segment financial information are highly subjective and, unlike financial accounting, are not based on authoritative guidance similar to GAAP. As a result, the financial information of the reported segments is not necessarily comparable with similar information reported by other financial institutions. As also described in note 22 to the Company’s 2009 consolidated financial statements, neither goodwill nor core deposit and other intangible assets (and the amortization charges associated with such assets) resulting from acquisitions of financial institutions have been allocated to the Company’s reportable segments, but are included in the “All Other” category. The Company does, however, assign such intangible assets to business units for purposes of testing for impairment.

Intersegment revenues are included in total revenues of the reportable segments. The elimination of intersegment revenues is included in the determination of “All Other” total revenues.

15. Relationship with Bayview Lending Group LLC and Bayview Financial Holdings, L.P.

In 2007 M&T invested $300 million to acquire a 20% minority interest in Bayview Lending Group LLC (“BLG”), a privately-held company that, together with its affiliates, specializes in securitizing loans and servicing real estate loans and other assets. M&T recognizes income from BLG using the equity method of accounting.

Bayview Financial Holdings, L.P. (together with its affiliates, “Bayview Financial”), a privately-held specialty mortgage finance company, is BLG’s majority investor. In addition to their common investment in BLG, the Company and Bayview Financial conduct other business activities with each other. The Company has purchased loan servicing rights for small balance commercial mortgage loans from BLG and Bayview Financial having outstanding principal balances of $5.6 billion and $5.5 billion at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. Amounts recorded as capitalized servicing assets for such loans totaled $33 million at June 30, 2010 and $40 million at December 31, 2009. Capitalized servicing rights at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 also included $13 million and $17 million, respectively, for servicing rights that were purchased from Bayview Financial related to residential mortgage loans with outstanding principal balances of $3.9 billion at June 30, 2010 and $4.1 billion at December 31, 2009. Revenues from servicing residential and small balance commercial mortgage loans purchased from BLG and Bayview Financial were $12 million and $13 million during the quarters ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $24 million and $26 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. M&T Bank provided $5 million and $34 million of credit facilities to Bayview Financial at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, of which $5 million and $24 million were outstanding at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. In addition, at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company held $27 million and $25 million, respectively, of collateralized mortgage obligations in its available-for-sale investment securities portfolio that were securitized by Bayview Financial. Finally, the Company held $333 million and $352 million of similar investment securities in its held-to-maturity portfolio at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

16. Relationship of M&T and AIB

AIB received 26,700,000 shares of M&T common stock on April 1, 2003 as a result of M&T’s acquisition of a subsidiary of AIB on that date. Those shares of common stock owned by AIB represented 22.4% of the issued and outstanding shares of M&T common stock on June 30, 2010. While AIB maintains a significant ownership in M&T, the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization between M&T and AIB (“Reorganization Agreement”) includes several provisions related to the corporate governance of M&T that provide AIB with representation on the M&T and M&T Bank boards of directors and key board committees and certain protections of its rights as a substantial M&T shareholder. In addition, AIB has rights that facilitate its ability to maintain its proportionate ownership position in M&T.

- 46 -

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED

16. Relationship of M&T and AIB, continued

With respect to AIB’s right to have representation on the M&T and M&T Bank boards of directors and key board committees, for as long as AIB holds at least 15% of M&T’s outstanding common stock, AIB is entitled to designate four individuals, reasonably acceptable to M&T, on both the M&T and M&T Bank boards of directors. In addition, one of the AIB designees to the M&T board of directors will serve on each of the Executive; Nomination, Compensation and Governance; and Audit and Risk committees. Also, as long as AIB holds at least 15% of M&T’s outstanding common stock, neither the M&T nor the M&T Bank board of directors may consist of more than 28 directors without the consent of the M&T directors designated by AIB. AIB will continue to enjoy these rights if its holdings of M&T common stock drop below 15%, but not below 12%, so long as AIB restores its ownership percentage to 15% within one year. In the event that AIB holds at least 10%, but less than 15%, of M&T’s outstanding common stock, AIB will be entitled to designate at least two individuals on both the M&T and M&T Bank boards of directors and, in the event that AIB holds at least 5%, but less than 10%, of M&T’s outstanding common stock, AIB will be entitled to designate one individual on both the M&T and M&T Bank boards of directors. M&T also has the right to appoint one representative to the AIB board while AIB remains a significant shareholder.

There are several other corporate governance provisions that serve to protect AIB’s rights as a substantial M&T shareholder and are embodied in M&T’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws. These protections include an effective consent right in connection with certain actions by M&T, such as amending M&T’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws in a manner inconsistent with AIB’s rights, engaging in activities not permissible for a bank holding company or adopting any shareholder rights plan or other measures intended to prevent or delay any transaction involving a change in control of M&T. AIB has the right to limit, with the agreement of at least one non-AIB designee on the M&T board of directors, other actions by M&T, such as reducing M&T’s cash dividend policy such that the ratio of cash dividends to net income is less than 15%, acquisitions and dispositions of significant amounts of assets, and the appointment or election of the chairman of the board of directors or the chief executive officer of M&T. The protective provisions described above will cease to be applicable when AIB no longer owns at least 15% of M&T’s outstanding common stock, calculated as described in the Reorganization Agreement.

In an effort to raise its capital position to meet new Irish government-mandated capital requirements, AIB announced in March 2010 that it plans to sell its ownership interest in M&T by the end of 2010.

Item 2.		Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Overview

Net income for M&T Bank Corporation (“M&T”) in the second quarter of 2010 was $189 million or $1.46 of diluted earnings per common share, compared with $51 million or $.36 of diluted earnings per common share in the corresponding quarter of 2009. During the first quarter of 2010, net income totaled $151 million or $1.15 of diluted earnings per common share. Basic earnings per common share were $1.47 in the recent quarter, compared with $.36 in the year-earlier quarter and $1.16 in the initial quarter of 2010. The after-tax impact of acquisition and integration-related expenses (included herein as merger-related expenses) associated with M&T’s May 23, 2009 acquisition of Provident Bankshares Corporation (“Provident”) was $40 million ($66 million pre-tax) or $.35 of basic and diluted earnings per common share in the second quarter of 2009. There were no merger-related expenses in the first or second quarter of 2010. For the first six months of 2010, net income totaled $340 million or $2.61 of diluted earnings per common share, compared with $115 million or $.85 of diluted earnings per common share in the similar 2009 period. Basic earnings per common share for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were $2.63 and $.85, respectively. The after-tax impact of merger-related expenses associated with Provident was $42 million ($69 million pre-tax) or $.37 of basic and diluted earnings per common share during the six-month period ended June 30, 2009.

The annualized rate of return on average total assets for M&T and its consolidated subsidiaries (“the Company”) in the recently completed quarter was 1.11%, compared with .31% in the second quarter of 2009 and .89% in the first quarter of 2010. The annualized rate of return on average common stockholders’ equity was 9.67% in the second quarter of 2010, compared with 2.53% in the year-earlier quarter and 7.86% in the initial quarter of 2010. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2010, the annualized rates of return on average assets and average common stockholders’ equity were 1.00% and 8.78%, respectively, compared with .35% and 3.06%, respectively, in the first half of 2009.

The condition of the residential real estate marketplace and the U.S. economy has had a significant impact on the financial services industry as a whole, and specifically on the financial results of the Company. A pronounced downturn in the residential real estate market that began in early 2007 has resulted in significantly lower residential real estate values and higher delinquencies and charge-offs of loans, including loans to builders and developers of residential real estate. In addition, the U.S. economy was in recession during 2008 and 2009, and high unemployment continues to hinder any significant recovery. As a result, the Company experienced higher than historical levels of delinquencies and charge-offs related to its commercial loan and commercial real estate loan portfolios during 2009 and in 2010 as well. Investment securities backed by residential and commercial real estate have reflected substantial unrealized losses during the real estate downturn due to a lack of liquidity in the financial markets and anticipated credit losses. Many financial institutions, including the Company, have taken charges for those unrealized losses that were deemed to be other than temporary.

Reflected in the Company’s second quarter 2010 results were $14 million of after-tax other-than-temporary impairment charges ($22 million before taxes) on certain available-for-sale investment securities, reducing diluted earnings per common share by $.11. Specifically, $12 million (pre-tax) of such charges related to American Depositary Shares of Allied Irish Banks, p.l.c. (“AIB ADSs”) obtained in M&T’s 2003 acquisition of Allfirst Financial Inc. (“Allfirst”) and $10 million (pre-tax) related to certain privately issued collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”) backed by residential real estate loans and collateralized debt obligations (“CDOs”) backed by pooled

- 48 -

trust preferred securities. However, because those investment securities were previously reflected at fair value on the consolidated balance sheet, the impairment charges did not reduce stockholders’ equity.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) amended generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in June 2009 relating to: (1) the consolidation of variable interest entities to eliminate the quantitative approach previously required for determining the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity; and (2) accounting for transfers of financial assets to eliminate the exceptions for qualifying special-purpose entities from the consolidation guidance and the exception that permitted sale accounting for certain mortgage securitizations when a transferor has not surrendered control over the transferred assets. The amended guidance became effective as of January 1, 2010. The recognition and measurement provisions of the amended guidance were applied to transfers that occur on or after the effective date. Additionally, beginning January 1, 2010, the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity is no longer relevant for accounting purposes. Therefore, formerly qualifying special-purpose entities must now be evaluated for consolidation in accordance with applicable consolidation guidance, including the new accounting guidance relating to the consolidation of variable interest entities.

In accordance with the new accounting requirements, effective January 1, 2010 the Company included in its consolidated financial statements one-to-four family residential mortgage loans that were included in non-recourse securitization transactions using qualified special trusts. The effect of that consolidation as of January 1, 2010 was to increase residential real estate loans by $424 million, decrease the amortized cost of available-for-sale investment securities by $360 million (fair value of $355 million as of January 1, 2010), and increase borrowings by $65 million. Information concerning those loans is included in note 11 of Notes to Financial Statements.

On May 23, 2009, M&T completed the acquisition of Provident, a bank holding company based in Baltimore, Maryland. Provident Bank, Provident’s banking subsidiary, was merged into M&T Bank, M&T’s principal bank subsidiary, on that date. The results of operations acquired in the Provident transaction have been included in the Company’s financial results since May 23, 2009. Provident common shareholders received .171625 shares of M&T common stock in exchange for each share of Provident common stock, resulting in M&T issuing a total of 5,838,308 common shares in connection with the acquisition. In addition, based on the merger agreement, outstanding and unexercised options to purchase common stock of Provident converted to options to purchase the common stock of M&T. The fair value of those options was approximately $1 million. In total, the purchase price was approximately $274 million based on the fair value on the acquisition date of M&T common stock exchanged and the fair value of the options to purchase M&T common stock. Holders of Provident’s preferred stock were issued shares of new Series B and Series C Preferred Stock of M&T having substantially identical terms. That preferred stock added $156 million to M&T’s stockholders’ equity. The Series B Preferred Stock has a preference value of $27 million, pays non-cumulative dividends at a rate of 10%, and is convertible into 433,148 shares of M&T common stock. The Series C Preferred Stock has a preference value of $152 million, pays cumulative dividends at a rate of 5% through November 2013 and 9% thereafter, and is held by the U.S. Department of Treasury under the Troubled Asset Relief Program — Capital Purchase Program.

The transaction has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. Accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded by M&T at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. Assets acquired totaled $6.3 billion, including $4.0 billion of loans and leases (including approximately $1.7 billion of commercial real estate loans, $1.4 billion of consumer loans, $700 million of commercial loans and leases and $300 million of residential real estate loans) and $1.0 billion of investment

- 49 -

securities. Liabilities assumed were $5.9 billion, including $5.1 billion of deposits. The transaction added $436 million to M&T’s stockholders’ equity, including $280 million of common equity and $156 million of preferred equity. In connection with the acquisition, the Company recorded $332 million of goodwill and $63 million of core deposit intangible. The core deposit intangible is being amortized over seven years using an accelerated method. The acquisition of Provident expanded the Company’s presence in the Mid-Atlantic area, gave the Company the second largest deposit share in Maryland, and tripled the Company’s presence in Virginia.

Application of the acquisition method requires that acquired loans be recorded at fair value and prohibits the carry-over of the acquired entity’s allowance for credit losses. Determining the fair value of the acquired loans required estimating cash flows expected to be collected on the loans. The impact of estimated credit losses on all acquired loans was considered in the estimation of future cash flows used in the determination of estimated fair value as of the acquisition date.

Merger-related expenses associated with the acquisition of Provident incurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 totaled $66 million ($40 million after tax effect) and $69 million ($42 million after tax effect), respectively. Such expenses were for professional services and other temporary help fees associated with the conversion of systems and/or integration of operations; costs related to branch and office consolidations; costs related to termination of existing Provident contractual arrangements for various services; initial marketing and promotion expenses designed to introduce M&T Bank to Provident’s customers; severance and incentive compensation costs; travel costs; and printing, supplies and other costs of commencing operations in new markets and offices. Additional information about the acquisition of Provident is provided in note 2 of Notes to Financial Statements.

The Company’s financial results for the second quarter of 2009 were adversely impacted by certain notable events. During that quarter, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) announced that it would levy a special assessment on insured financial institutions to rebuild the Deposit Insurance Fund. That special assessment amounted to $33 million ($20 million after tax effect, or $.17 of diluted earnings per common share). Also during 2009’s second quarter, other-than-temporary impairment charges of $25 million (pre-tax) were recorded on certain privately issued CMOs backed by residential real estate loans and CDOs backed by pooled trust preferred securities of financial institutions. Such securities are held in the Company’s available-for-sale investment securities portfolio. Those charges reduced net income and diluted earnings per common share by $15 million and $.13, respectively.

During the first quarter of 2010, the Company recognized other-than-temporary impairment charges of $27 million ($16 million after taxes, or $.14 of diluted earnings per common share) that were recorded on certain privately issued CMOs. Those securities, which are secured by residential real estate loans, are also held in the Company’s available-for-sale investment securities portfolio.

Recent Legislative Developments

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) was signed into law on July 21, 2010. This new law will significantly change the current bank regulatory structure and affect the lending, deposit, investment, trading and operating activities of financial institutions and their holding companies, and will fundamentally change the system of oversight described in Part I, Item 1 of M&T’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 under the caption “Supervision and Regulation of the Company.” The Dodd-Frank Act requires various federal agencies to adopt a broad range of new implementing rules and

- 50 -

regulations, and to prepare numerous studies and reports for Congress. The federal agencies are given significant discretion in drafting the implementing rules and regulations, and, as a result, many of the details and much of the impact of the Dodd-Frank Act may not be known for many months or years. The Dodd-Frank Act, however, could have a material adverse impact either on the financial services industry as a whole, or on M&T’s business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.

The Dodd-Frank Act broadens the base for Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance assessments. Assessments will now be based on the average consolidated total assets less tangible equity capital of a financial institution. The Dodd-Frank Act also permanently increases the maximum amount of deposit insurance for banks, savings institutions and credit unions to $250,000 per depositor, retroactive to January 1, 2009, and non-interest bearing transaction accounts have unlimited deposit insurance through December 31, 2013.

The legislation also requires that publicly traded companies give stockholders a non-binding vote on executive compensation and “golden parachute” payments, and authorizes the Securities and Exchange Commission to promulgate rules that would allow stockholders to nominate their own candidates using a company’s proxy materials. The Dodd-Frank Act also directs the Federal Reserve Board to promulgate rules prohibiting excessive compensation paid to bank holding company executives, regardless of whether the company is publicly traded or not.

The Dodd-Frank Act establishes a new Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection with broad powers to supervise and enforce consumer protection laws. The Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection has broad rule-making authority for a wide range of consumer protection laws that apply to all banks and savings institutions, including the authority to prohibit “unfair, deceptive or abusive” acts and practices. The Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection has examination and enforcement authority over all banks and savings institutions with more than $10 billion in assets. The Dodd-Frank Act also weakens the federal preemption rules that have been applicable for national banks and gives state attorneys general the ability to enforce federal consumer protection laws.

In addition, the Dodd-Frank Act, among other things:

	•		Amends the Electronic Fund Transfer Act (EFTA) to, among other things, give the Federal Reserve the authority to issue rules which are expected to limit debit-card interchange fees;

	•		Applies the same leverage and risk-based capital requirements that apply to insured depository institutions to most bank holding companies which, among other things, will, after a three-year phase-in period which begins January 1, 2013, remove trust preferred securities as a permitted component of a holding company’s Tier 1 capital;

	•		Provides for an increase in the FDIC assessment for depository institutions with assets of $10 billion or more and increases the minimum reserve ratio for the deposit insurance fund from 1.15% to 1.35%;

	•		Imposes comprehensive regulation of the over-the-counter derivatives market, which would include certain provisions that would effectively prohibit insured depository institutions from conducting certain derivatives businesses in the institution itself;

	•		Repeals the federal prohibitions on the payment of interest on demand deposits, thereby permitting depository institutions to pay interest on business transaction and other accounts;

- 51 -

	•		Provides mortgage reform provisions regarding a customer’s ability to repay, restricting variable-rate lending by requiring the ability to repay to be determined for variable-rate loans by using the maximum rate that will apply during the first five years of a variable-rate loan term, and making more loans subject to provisions for higher cost loans, new disclosures, and certain other revisions; and

	•		Creates a financial stability oversight council that will recommend to the Federal Reserve increasingly strict rules for capital, leverage, liquidity, risk management and other requirements as companies grow in size and complexity.

The environment in which banking organizations will operate after the financial crisis, including legislative and regulatory changes affecting capital, liquidity, supervision, permissible activities, corporate governance and compensation, changes in fiscal policy and steps to eliminate government support for banking organizations, may have long-term effects on the business model and profitability of banking organizations that cannot now be foreseen. Many aspects of the Dodd-Frank Act are subject to rulemaking and will take effect over several years, making it difficult to anticipate the overall financial impact on M&T, its customers or the financial industry more generally. Provisions in the legislation that affect deposit insurance assessments, payment of interest on demand deposits and interchange fees could increase the costs associated with deposits as well as place limitations on certain revenues those deposits may generate. Provisions in the legislation that revoke the Tier 1 capital treatment of trust preferred securities and otherwise require revisions to the capital requirements of M&T and M&T Bank could require M&T and M&T Bank to seek other sources of capital in the future.

The potential impact of new rules relating to overdraft fee practices is included herein under the heading “Other Income.”

Supplemental Reporting of Non-GAAP Results of Operations

As a result of business combinations and other acquisitions, the Company had intangible assets consisting of goodwill and core deposit and other intangible assets totaling $3.7 billion at each of June 30, 2010, June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2009. Included in such intangible assets was goodwill of $3.5 billion at each of those respective dates. Amortization of core deposit and other intangible assets, after tax effect, was $9 million during each of the second quarters of 2010 and 2009 ($.07 per diluted common share and $.08 per diluted common share, respectively) and $10 million ($.08 per diluted common share) in the first quarter of 2010. For each of the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, amortization of core deposit and other intangible assets, after tax effect, totaled $19 million ($.16 per diluted common share and $.17 per diluted common share, respectively).

M&T consistently provides supplemental reporting of its results on a “net operating” or “tangible” basis, from which M&T excludes the after-tax effect of amortization of core deposit and other intangible assets (and the related goodwill, core deposit intangible and other intangible asset balances, net of applicable deferred tax amounts) and gains and expenses associated with merging acquired operations into the Company, since such items are considered by management to be “nonoperating” in nature. Although “net operating income” as defined by M&T is not a GAAP measure, M&T’s management believes that this information helps investors understand the effect of acquisition activity in reported results.

- 52 -

Net operating income was $198 million in the second quarter of 2010, compared with $101 million in the similar 2009 quarter. Diluted net operating earnings per common share for the recent quarter were $1.53, compared with $.79 in the second quarter of 2009. Net operating income and diluted net operating earnings per common share were $161 million and $1.23, respectively, in the initial quarter of 2010. For the first half of 2010, net operating income and diluted net operating earnings per common share were $359 million and $2.77, respectively, compared with $176 million and $1.39, respectively, in the corresponding 2009 period.

Net operating income expressed as an annualized return on average tangible assets was 1.23% in the recent quarter, compared with .64% in the year-earlier quarter and 1.00% in the first 2010 quarter. Net operating income expressed as an annualized return on average tangible common equity was 20.36% in the recently completed quarter, compared with 12.08% and 17.34% in the quarters ended June 30, 2009 and March 31, 2010, respectively. For the first six months of 2010, net operating income represented an annualized return on average tangible assets and average tangible common stockholders’ equity of 1.11% and 18.89%, respectively, compared with .57% and 10.76%, respectively, in the six-month period ended June 30, 2009.

Reconciliations of GAAP amounts with corresponding non-GAAP amounts are provided in table 2.

Taxable-equivalent Net Interest Income

Taxable-equivalent net interest income rose 13% to $573 million in the second quarter of 2010 from $507 million in the year-earlier quarter. The significant improvement was predominantly the result of a 41 basis point (hundredths of one percent) widening of the Company’s net interest margin, or taxable-equivalent net interest income expressed as an annualized percentage of average earning assets. Taxable-equivalent net interest income totaled $562 million in the first quarter of 2010. The recent quarter’s increase from the initial 2010 quarter resulted from a 6 basis point widening of the net interest margin, partially offset by a $520 million, or 1%, decline in average earning assets. The improvement in the net interest margin was largely attributable to an 8 basis point increase in the yields on loans.

For the first six months of 2010, taxable-equivalent net interest income was $1.14 billion, 18% higher than $960 million in the similar period of 2009. That increase was predominantly attributable to a 50 basis point widening of the Company’s net interest margin due to lower rates paid on deposits and long-term borrowings. Higher average earning assets, which rose $1.7 billion or 3% from $58.4 billion in the first half of 2009 to $60.1 billion in the first six months of 2010 also contributed to the rise. The growth in average earning assets was the result of assets obtained in the acquisition of Provident, which at the May 23, 2009 acquisition date totaled approximately $5.1 billion and which added approximately $2 billion to average earning assets in the second quarter of 2009.

Average loans and leases rose $724 million, or 1%, to $51.3 billion in the second quarter of 2010 from $50.6 billion in the year-earlier quarter. Included in average loans and leases in the recent quarter were loans obtained in the acquisition transactions related to Provident and to Bradford Bank (“Bradford”). M&T Bank assumed all of the deposits and acquired certain assets of Bradford in an agreement with the FDIC which was effective on August 28, 2009. Loans associated with Provident totaled $4.0 billion on the May 23, 2009 acquisition date and loans associated with Bradford totaled $302 million on the August 28, 2009 closing date of that transaction. In total, the acquired loans consisted of approximately $700 million of commercial loans, $1.8 billion of commercial real estate loans, $400 million of residential real estate loans and $1.4 billion of consumer loans. Including the impact of the acquired loan balances, commercial loans and leases averaged $13.1 billion in the second

- 53 -

quarter of 2010, down $971 million or 7% from $14.1 billion in the year-earlier quarter. That decline was the result of generally lower demand for commercial loans. Average commercial real estate loans rose $1.0 billion, or 5%, to $20.8 billion in the recent quarter from $19.7 billion in 2009’s second quarter. That increase was predominantly due to the impact of loans obtained in the acquisition of Provident. Average outstanding residential real estate loans increased $391 million, or 7%, to $5.7 billion in the second quarter of 2010, as compared with the $5.3 billion averaged in the year-earlier quarter. Included in that portfolio were loans held for sale, which averaged $363 million in the recent quarter, compared with $720 million in the second quarter of 2009. Also reflected in average residential real estate loans in the second quarter of 2010 were $359 million of loans related to the January 1, 2010 implementation of the new accounting requirements as previously discussed. Excluding such loans and loans held for sale, average residential real estate loans increased $388 million from the second quarter of 2009 to the second quarter of 2010, due in part to the loans obtained in the 2009 acquisition transactions. Average consumer loans totaled $11.8 billion in the recent quarter, up $264 million, or 2%, from $11.5 billion in the year-earlier period. That growth was due to loans obtained from Provident and Bradford (largely home equity loans and lines of credit) and higher outstanding balances of home equity lines of credit, partially offset by a decline in average outstanding automobile loans.

Average loan balances in the recent quarter declined $670 million, or 1%, from the first quarter of 2010. Average outstanding commercial loan and lease balances declined $312 million, or 2%, from 2010’s initial quarter, largely due to sluggish loan demand. The average outstanding balances of commercial real estate loans and residential real estate loans were each modestly lower in the recent quarter as compared with the first quarter of 2010. Average consumer loans declined $161 million, or 1%, from 2010’s first quarter, largely due to certain out-of-footprint portions of the consumer loan portfolio that have been allowed to decline where the Company decided it does not want to pursue growth due to competitive loan pricing and economic conditions in those areas. Such loans include out-of-footprint automobile loans and home equity loans. The accompanying table summarizes quarterly changes in the major components of the loan and lease portfolio.

For the first six months of 2010, average loans and leases totaled $51.6 billion, $1.9 billion or 4% above $49.7 billion in the first six months of 2009. Loans obtained in the 2009 acquisition transactions were the predominant factor for that increase, partially offset by sluggish borrower demand for loans.

The investment securities portfolio averaged $8.4 billion in the second quarter of 2010, compared with $8.5 billion and $8.2 billion in the year-earlier quarter and first quarter of 2010, respectively. The slight decline in such securities from the second quarter of 2009 reflects maturities and paydowns of mortgage-backed securities, maturities of federal agency notes and

- 54 -

the impact of adopting the new accounting rules on January 1, 2010 as already noted, largely offset by purchases of mortgage-backed securities issued by the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”) during the recent quarter (approximately $340 million) and the initial 2010 quarter (approximately $960 million), and the full-quarter impact of investment securities obtained in the Provident acquisition. As compared with the first quarter of 2010, the higher average balance of investment securities reflects the impact of the noted purchases of mortgage-backed securities, partially offset by maturities and paydowns of similar securities. For the first six months of 2010 and 2009, average investment securities were $8.3 billion and $8.5 billion, respectively.

The investment securities portfolio is largely comprised of residential mortgage-backed securities and CMOs, debt securities issued by municipalities, capital preferred securities issued by certain financial institutions, and shorter-term U.S. Treasury and federal agency notes. When purchasing investment securities, the Company considers its overall interest-rate risk profile as well as the adequacy of expected returns relative to the risks assumed, including prepayments. In managing its investment securities portfolio, the Company occasionally sells investment securities as a result of changes in interest rates and spreads, actual or anticipated prepayments, credit risk associated with a particular security, or as a result of restructuring its investment securities portfolio following completion of a business combination.

The Company regularly reviews its investment securities for declines in value below amortized cost that might be characterized as “other than temporary.” An other-than-temporary impairment charge of $22 million (pre-tax) was recognized in the second quarter of 2010. Approximately $12 million of that charge related to AIB ADSs and $10 million related to certain privately issued CMOs and CDOs held in the Company’s available-for-sale investment securities portfolio. The AIB ADSs were obtained in the 2003 acquisition of Allfirst and are held to satisfy options to purchase such shares granted by Allfirst to certain employees. Factors contributing to the impairment charge related to the AIB ADSs included mounting credit and other losses incurred by AIB, the issuance of AIB common stock in lieu of dividend payments on certain preferred stock issuances held by the Irish government resulting in significant dilution of AIB common shareholders, and recent public announcements by Irish government officials suggesting that increased government support, which could further dilute AIB common shareholders, may be necessary. Poor economic conditions, high unemployment and depressed real estate values are significant factors contributing to the recognition of the other-than-temporary impairment charges as related to the CMOs and CDOs. Other-than-temporary impairment charges of $25 million (pre-tax) and $27 million (pre-tax) were recognized during the second quarter of 2009 and the initial quarter of 2010, respectively. Those charges related to the Company’s available-for-sale portfolio of privately issued residential CMOs. Based on management’s assessment of future cash flows associated with individual investment securities, as of June 30, 2010 the Company concluded that the remaining declines associated with the rest of the investment securities portfolio were temporary in nature. A further discussion of fair values of investment securities is included herein under the heading “Capital.” Additional information about the investment securities portfolio is included in notes 3 and 12 of Notes to Financial Statements.

Other earning assets include deposits at banks, trading account assets, federal funds sold and agreements to resell securities. Those other earning assets in the aggregate averaged $157 million in the recent quarter, compared with $235 million and $211 million in the second quarter of 2009 and the first quarter of 2010, respectively. The amounts of investment securities and other earning assets held by the Company are influenced by such factors as demand for loans, which generally yield more than investment securities and other earning assets, ongoing repayments, the level of deposits, and management of balance sheet size and resulting capital ratios.

- 55 -

As a result of the changes described herein, average earning assets totaled $59.8 billion in the second quarter of 2010, compared with $59.3 billion in the corresponding quarter of 2009. Average earning assets were $60.3 billion in the initial quarter of 2010, and aggregated $60.1 billion and $58.4 billion during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

The most significant source of funding for the Company is core deposits, which are comprised of noninterest-bearing deposits, interest-bearing transaction accounts, savings deposits and domestic time deposits under $100,000. The Company’s branch network is its principal source of core deposits, which generally carry lower interest rates than wholesale funds of comparable maturities. Certificates of deposit under $100,000 generated on a nationwide basis by M&T Bank, National Association (“M&T Bank, N.A.”), a wholly owned bank subsidiary of M&T, are also included in core deposits. Average core deposits aggregated $43.4 billion in the second quarter of 2010, compared with $38.2 billion in the corresponding quarter of 2009 and $42.9 billion in the initial 2010 quarter. The 2009 acquisition transactions added $3.8 billion of core deposits on the respective acquisition dates. Excluding deposits obtained in those transactions, the growth in core deposits since the second quarter of 2009 was due, in part, to the lack of attractive alternative investments available to the Company’s customers resulting from lower interest rates and from the economic environment in the U.S. The low interest rate environment has resulted in a shift in customer savings trends, as average time deposits have continued to decline, while average noninterest-bearing deposits and savings deposits have increased. The following table provides an analysis of quarterly changes in the components of average core deposits. For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, core deposits averaged $43.2 billion and $36.5 billion, respectively.

Domestic time deposits of $100,000 or more, deposits originated through the Company’s offshore branch office, and brokered deposits provide additional sources of funding for the Company. Domestic time deposits over $100,000, excluding brokered certificates of deposit, averaged $1.7 billion in the second quarter of 2010, compared with $2.7 billion in the year-earlier quarter and $1.8 billion in the initial quarter of 2010. Offshore branch deposits, primarily comprised of accounts with balances of $100,000 or more, averaged $972 million, $1.5 billion and $1.2 billion for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2010, June 30, 2009 and March 31, 2010, respectively. Average brokered time deposits totaled $709 million in the recently completed quarter, compared with $697 million in the year-earlier quarter and $785 million in the first quarter of 2010. The Company also had brokered NOW and brokered money-market deposit accounts which in the aggregate averaged $1.2 billion during the second quarter of 2010, compared with $842 million and $678 million during the corresponding quarter of 2009 and the first quarter of 2010, respectively. The higher level of such deposits in the recent quarter was the result of demand for such deposits, largely resulting from continued uncertain economic markets and the desire of brokerage firms to earn reasonable yields while ensuring that customer deposits were fully insured. Offshore branch deposits and brokered deposits have been used by the Company as alternatives to short-term borrowings. Additional amounts of offshore branch deposits or brokered deposits may be added in the future depending on market conditions, including demand by customers and other

- 56 -

investors for such deposits, and the cost of funds available from alternative sources at the time.

The Company also uses borrowings from banks, securities dealers, various Federal Home Loan Banks (“FHLBs”), the Federal Reserve and others as sources of funding. Short-term borrowings averaged $1.8 billion in the recent quarter, compared with $3.2 billion in the second quarter of 2009 and $2.4 billion in the first quarter of 2010. Included in average short-term borrowings were unsecured federal funds borrowings, which generally mature on the next business day, that averaged $1.6 billion in each of the second quarters of 2010 and 2009, compared with $2.1 billion in the first quarter of 2010. Overnight federal funds borrowings have historically represented the largest component of the Company’s short-term borrowings and are obtained from a wide variety of banks and other financial institutions. Average short-term borrowings during the recent quarter included $8 million of borrowings from the FHLB of New York and the FHLB of Atlanta, compared with $902 million in the year-earlier quarter and $100 million in the first quarter of 2010. Also included in short-term borrowings were secured borrowings with the Federal Reserve through their Term Auction Facility (“TAF”). Borrowings under the TAF averaged $604 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2009, while there were no such outstanding borrowings during the quarters ended March 31 and June 30, 2010. The need for short-term borrowings from the FHLBs and the Federal Reserve has diminished with the continued growth in the Company’s core deposits.

Long-term borrowings averaged $9.5 billion in the second quarter of 2010, compared with $11.5 billion in the similar quarter of 2009 and $10.2 billion in the initial 2010 quarter. Included in average long-term borrowings were amounts borrowed from the FHLBs of $4.4 billion and $6.5 billion in the second quarters of 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $5.1 billion in the first quarter of 2010, and subordinated capital notes of $1.9 billion in each of those quarters. Junior subordinated debentures associated with trust preferred securities that were included in average long-term borrowings were $1.2 billion in each of the two most recent quarters, compared with $1.1 billion in the quarter ended June 30, 2009. Information regarding trust preferred securities and the related junior subordinated debentures is provided in note 5 of Notes to Financial Statements. Also included in long-term borrowings were agreements to repurchase securities, which averaged $1.6 billion during each of the second quarters of 2010 and 2009 and the first quarter of 2010. The agreements have various repurchase dates through 2017, however, the contractual maturities of the underlying securities extend beyond such repurchase dates.

Changes in the composition of the Company’s earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, as described herein, as well as changes in interest rates and spreads, can impact net interest income. Net interest spread, or the difference between the taxable-equivalent yield on earning assets and the rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities, was 3.59% in the second quarter of 2010, compared with 3.15% in the year-earlier quarter. The yield on earning assets during the recent quarter was 4.63%, up one basis point from 4.62% in the second quarter of 2009, while the rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities decreased 43 basis points to 1.04% from 1.47% in the second quarter of 2009. In the first quarter of 2010, the net interest spread was 3.55%, the yield on earning assets was 4.59% and the rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities was 1.04%. The 44 basis point improvement in spread from the second quarter of 2009 to the recent quarter was due largely to declines in the rates paid on deposits and long-term borrowings. Those lower rates reflected the impact of the stagnant economy and the Federal Reserve’s monetary policies on both short-term and long-term interest rates. In addition, the Federal Open Market Committee noted in early 2010 that low rates of resource utilization, subdued inflation trends, and stable inflation expectations were likely to warrant exceptionally low levels of the federal funds rate for an extended period of time. The 4 basis point improvement in spread from the first quarter of 2010 to the second quarter of 2010 was largely attributable to higher yields earned

- 57 -

on loans. For the first six months of 2010, the net interest spread was 3.57%, an increase of 55 basis points from the corresponding 2009 period. The yield on earning assets and the rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities were 4.61% and 1.04%, respectively, in the first half of 2010, compared with 4.63% and 1.61%, respectively, in the similar period of 2009.

Net interest-free funds consist largely of noninterest-bearing demand deposits and stockholders’ equity, partially offset by bank owned life insurance and non-earning assets, including goodwill and core deposit and other intangible assets. Net interest-free funds averaged $14.3 billion in the recent quarter, compared with $11.3 billion in the second quarter of 2009 and $13.7 billion in the initial quarter of 2010. The rise in net interest-free funds in the two most recent quarters as compared with the second quarter of 2009 was largely the result of higher average balances of noninterest-bearing deposits. Such deposits averaged $13.6 billion, $10.5 billion and $13.3 billion in the quarters ended June 30, 2010, June 30, 2009 and March 31, 2010, respectively. In connection with the Provident and Bradford transactions, the Company added noninterest-bearing deposits totaling $946 million at the respective acquisition dates. During the first six months of 2010 and 2009, average net interest-free funds aggregated $14.0 billion and $10.4 billion, respectively. Goodwill and core deposit and other intangible assets averaged $3.7 billion during each of the quarters ended June 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010, compared with $3.5 billion during the quarter ended June 30, 2009. The cash surrender value of bank owned life insurance averaged $1.5 billion in the two most recent quarters, and $1.3 billion during the second quarter of 2009. Increases in the cash surrender value of bank owned life insurance are not included in interest income, but rather are recorded in “other revenues from operations.”

The contribution of net interest-free funds to net interest margin was .25% in the recent quarter, compared with .28% and .23% in the second quarter of 2009 and the initial 2010 quarter, respectively. That contribution for the first half of the year was .24% in 2010 and .29% in 2009. The decline in the contribution to net interest margin ascribed to net interest-free funds in the 2010 periods as compared with the 2009 periods resulted largely from the impact of lower interest rates on interest-bearing liabilities used to value such contribution.

Reflecting the changes to the net interest spread and the contribution of interest-free funds as described herein, the Company’s net interest margin was 3.84% in the recent quarter, improved from 3.43% in the year-earlier quarter and 3.78% in the first quarter of 2010. During the first six months of 2010 and 2009, the net interest margin was 3.81% and 3.31%, respectively. Future changes in market interest rates or spreads, as well as changes in the composition of the Company’s portfolios of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities that result in reductions in spreads, could adversely impact the Company’s net interest income and net interest margin.

Management assesses the potential impact of future changes in interest rates and spreads by projecting net interest income under several interest rate scenarios. In managing interest rate risk, the Company has utilized interest rate swap agreements to modify the repricing characteristics of certain portions of its portfolios of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Periodic settlement amounts arising from these agreements are generally reflected in either the yields earned on assets or the rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities. The notional amount of interest rate swap agreements entered into for interest rate risk management purposes was approximately $1.0 billion at June 30, 2010 and $1.1 billion at each of June 30, 2009, December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010. Under the terms of those swap agreements, the Company received payments based on the outstanding notional amount of the swap agreements at fixed rates and made payments at variable rates. Those swap agreements were designated as fair value hedges of certain fixed rate time deposits (except at the recent quarter-end, when there were none outstanding) and long-term borrowings. There were no interest rate swap agreements designated as cash flow hedges at those respective dates.

- 58 -

In a fair value hedge, the fair value of the derivative (the interest rate swap agreement) and changes in the fair value of the hedged item are recorded in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet with the corresponding gain or loss recognized in current earnings. The difference between changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap agreements and the hedged items represents hedge ineffectiveness and is recorded in “other revenues from operations” in the Company’s consolidated statement of income. In a cash flow hedge, unlike in a fair value hedge, the effective portion of the derivative’s gain or loss is initially reported as a component of other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified into earnings when the forecasted transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the gain or loss is reported in “other revenues from operations” immediately. The amounts of hedge ineffectiveness recognized during the quarters ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 and the quarter ended March 31, 2010 were not material to the Company’s results of operations. The estimated aggregate fair value of interest rate swap agreements designated as fair value hedges represented gains of approximately $111 million, $64 million, $67 million and $54 million at June 30, 2010, June 30, 2009, March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. The significant rise in fair value of those interest rate swap agreements at June 30, 2010 as compared with the prior quarter-ends resulted from lower interest rates at the recent quarter-end. The fair values of such swap agreements were substantially offset by changes in the fair values of the hedged items. The changes in the fair values of the interest rate swap agreements and the hedged items primarily result from the effects of changing interest rates and spreads. The Company’s credit exposure as of June 30, 2010 with respect to the estimated fair value of interest rate swap agreements used for managing interest rate risk has been substantially mitigated through master netting arrangements with trading account interest rate contracts with the same counterparty as well as counterparty postings of $58 million of collateral with the Company.

The weighted-average rates to be received and paid under interest rate swap agreements currently in effect were 6.33% and 2.36%, respectively, at June 30, 2010. The average notional amounts of interest rate swap agreements entered into for interest rate risk management purposes, the related effect on net interest income and margin, and the weighted-average interest rates paid or received on those swap agreements are presented in the accompanying table. Additional information about the Company’s use of interest rate swap agreements and other derivatives is included in note 10 of Notes to Financial Statements.

As a financial intermediary, the Company is exposed to various risks, including liquidity and market risk. Liquidity refers to the Company’s ability to ensure that sufficient cash flow and liquid assets are available to satisfy current and future obligations, including demands for loans and deposit withdrawals, funding operating costs, and other corporate purposes. Liquidity risk arises whenever the maturities of financial instruments included in assets and liabilities differ. M&T’s banking subsidiaries have access to additional funding sources through borrowings from the FHLB of New York, lines of credit with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, and other available borrowing facilities. The Company has, from time to time, issued subordinated capital notes to provide liquidity and enhance regulatory capital ratios. Such notes qualify for inclusion in the Company’s total capital as defined by Federal regulators.

The Company has informal and sometimes reciprocal sources of funding available through various arrangements for unsecured short-term borrowings from a wide group of banks and other financial institutions. Short-term federal funds borrowings were $2.0 billion, $817 million and $2.1 billion at June 30, 2010, June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2009, respectively. In general, these borrowings were unsecured and matured on the following business day. As already noted, offshore branch deposits and brokered deposits have been used by the Company as alternatives to short-term borrowings. Offshore branch deposits also generally mature on the next business day and totaled $551 million at June 30, 2010 and $1.1 billion at each of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2009. Outstanding brokered time deposits at June 30, 2010, June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2009 were $662 million, $1.2 billion and $868 million, respectively. At June 30, 2010, the weighted-average remaining term to maturity of brokered time deposits was 20 months. Certain of these brokered time deposits have provisions that allow for early redemption. The Company also has brokered NOW and brokered money-market deposit accounts which

- 60 -

aggregated $1.5 billion, $799 million and $618 million at June 30, 2010, June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

The Company’s ability to obtain funding from these or other sources could be negatively impacted should the Company experience a substantial deterioration in its financial condition or its debt ratings, or should the availability of short-term funding become restricted due to a disruption in the financial markets. The Company attempts to quantify such credit-event risk by modeling scenarios that estimate the liquidity impact resulting from a short-term ratings downgrade over various grading levels. Such impact is estimated by attempting to measure the effect on available unsecured lines of credit, available capacity from secured borrowing sources and securitizable assets. In addition to deposits and borrowings, other sources of liquidity include maturities of investment securities and other earning assets, repayments of loans and investment securities, and cash generated from operations, such as fees collected for services.

Certain customers of the Company obtain financing through the issuance of variable rate demand bonds (“VRDBs”). The VRDBs are generally enhanced by letters of credit provided by M&T Bank. M&T Bank oftentimes acts as remarketing agent for the VRDBs and, at its discretion, may from time-to-time own some of the VRDBs while such instruments are remarketed. When this occurs, the VRDBs are classified as trading assets in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. Nevertheless, M&T Bank is not contractually obligated to purchase the VRDBs. The value of VRDBs in the Company’s trading account totaled $22 million and $74 million at June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $19 million at December 31, 2009. The total amount of VRDBs outstanding backed by M&T Bank letters of credit was $1.9 billion at each of June 30, 2010, June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2009. M&T Bank also serves as remarketing agent for most of those bonds.

The Company enters into contractual obligations in the normal course of business which require future cash payments. Such obligations include, among others, payments related to deposits, borrowings, leases and other contractual commitments. Off-balance sheet commitments to customers may impact liquidity, including commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit, commercial letters of credit, financial guarantees and indemnification contracts, and commitments to sell real estate loans. Because many of these commitments or contracts expire without being funded in whole or in part, the contract amounts are not necessarily indicative of future cash flows. Further discussion of these commitments is provided in note 13 of Notes to Financial Statements.

M&T’s primary source of funds to pay for operating expenses, shareholder dividends and treasury stock repurchases has historically been the receipt of dividends from its banking subsidiaries, which are subject to various regulatory limitations. Dividends from any banking subsidiary to M&T are limited by the amount of earnings of the banking subsidiary in the current year and the two preceding years. For purposes of that test, at June 30, 2010 approximately $1.3 billion was available for payment of dividends to M&T from banking subsidiaries. These historic sources of cash flow have been augmented in the past by the issuance of trust preferred securities and senior notes payable. Information regarding trust preferred securities and the related junior subordinated debentures is included in note 5 of Notes to Financial Statements. M&T also maintains a $30 million line of credit with an unaffiliated commercial bank, of which there were no borrowings outstanding at June 30, 2010 or at December 31, 2009.

Management closely monitors the Company’s liquidity position on an ongoing basis for compliance with internal policies and believes that available sources of liquidity are adequate to meet funding needs anticipated in the normal course of business. Management does not anticipate engaging in

- 61 -

any activities, either currently or in the long-term, for which adequate funding would not be available and would therefore result in a significant strain on liquidity at either M&T or its subsidiary banks.

Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in the market prices and/or interest rates of the Company’s financial instruments. The primary market risk the Company is exposed to is interest rate risk. Interest rate risk arises from the Company’s core banking activities of lending and deposit-taking, because assets and liabilities reprice at different times and by different amounts as interest rates change. As a result, net interest income earned by the Company is subject to the effects of changing interest rates. The Company measures interest rate risk by calculating the variability of net interest income in future periods under various interest rate scenarios using projected balances for earning assets, interest-bearing liabilities and derivatives used to hedge interest rate risk. Management’s philosophy toward interest rate risk management is to limit the variability of net interest income. The balances of financial instruments used in the projections are based on expected growth from forecasted business opportunities, anticipated prepayments of loans and investment securities, and expected maturities of investment securities, loans and deposits. Management uses a “value of equity” model to supplement the modeling technique described above. Those supplemental analyses are based on discounted cash flows associated with on- and off-balance sheet financial instruments. Such analyses are modeled to reflect changes in interest rates and provide management with a long-term interest rate risk metric.

The Company’s Risk Management Committee, which includes members of senior management, monitors the sensitivity of the Company’s net interest income to changes in interest rates with the aid of a computer model that forecasts net interest income under different interest rate scenarios. In modeling changing interest rates, the Company considers different yield curve shapes that consider both parallel (that is, simultaneous changes in interest rates at each point on the yield curve) and non-parallel (that is, allowing interest rates at points on the yield curve to vary by different amounts) shifts in the yield curve. In utilizing the model, market-implied forward interest rates over the subsequent twelve months are generally used to determine a base interest rate scenario for the net interest income simulation. That calculated base net interest income is then compared to the income calculated under the varying interest rate scenarios. The model considers the impact of ongoing lending and deposit-gathering activities, as well as interrelationships in the magnitude and timing of the repricing of financial instruments, including the effect of changing interest rates on expected prepayments and maturities. When deemed prudent, management has taken actions to mitigate exposure to interest rate risk through the use of on- or off-balance sheet financial instruments and intends to do so in the future. Possible actions include, but are not limited to, changes in the pricing of loan and deposit products, modifying the composition of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and adding to, modifying or terminating existing interest rate swap agreements or other financial instruments used for interest rate risk management purposes.

- 62 -

The accompanying table as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 displays the estimated impact on net interest income from non-trading financial instruments in the base scenario described above resulting from parallel changes in interest rates across repricing categories during the first modeling year.

The Company utilized many assumptions to calculate the impact that changes in interest rates may have on net interest income. The more significant of those assumptions included the rate of prepayments of mortgage-related assets, cash flows from derivative and other financial instruments held for non-trading purposes, loan and deposit volumes and pricing, and deposit maturities. In the scenarios presented, the Company also assumed gradual changes in interest rates during a twelve-month period of 100 and 200 basis points, as compared with the assumed base scenario. In the event that a 100 or 200 basis point rate change cannot be achieved, the applicable rate changes are limited to lesser amounts such that interest rates cannot be less than zero. The assumptions used in interest rate sensitivity modeling are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the Company cannot precisely predict the impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income. Actual results may differ significantly from those presented due to the timing, magnitude and frequency of changes in interest rates and changes in market conditions and interest rate differentials (spreads) between maturity/repricing categories, as well as any actions, such as those previously described, which management may take to counter such changes. The changes to projected net interest income resulting from rising interest rates from December 31, 2009 to June 30, 2010 were largely due to the projected balance sheet’s funding mix having a higher concentration of core deposits, with less concentration in short-term, floating rate wholesale borrowings. Nevertheless, in light of the uncertainties and assumptions associated with the process, the amounts presented in the table are not considered significant to the Company’s past or projected net interest income.

Changes in fair value of the Company’s financial instruments can also result from a lack of trading activity for similar instruments in the financial markets. That impact is most notable on the values assigned to the Company’s investment securities. Information about the fair valuation of such securities is presented herein under the heading “Capital” and in notes 3 and 12 of Notes to Financial Statements.

The Company engages in trading activities to meet the financial needs of customers, to fund the Company’s obligations under certain deferred compensation plans and, to a limited extent, to profit from perceived market opportunities. Financial instruments utilized in trading activities consist predominantly of interest rate contracts, such as swap agreements, and forward and futures contracts related to foreign currencies, but have also included forward and futures contracts related to mortgage-backed securities and investments in U.S. Treasury and other government securities, mortgage-backed securities and mutual funds, and as previously described, a limited number of VRDBs. The Company generally mitigates the foreign currency and interest rate risk associated with trading activities by entering into offsetting trading positions. The amounts of gross and net trading positions, as well as the type of trading activities conducted by the Company, are subject to a well-defined series of potential loss exposure limits established by management and approved by M&T’s Board of Directors. However, as with any non-government guaranteed financial instrument,

- 63 -

the Company is exposed to credit risk associated with counterparties to the Company’s trading activities.

The notional amounts of interest rate contracts entered into for trading purposes totaled $12.4 billion at June 30, 2010, compared with $14.9 billion and $13.9 billion at June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2009, respectively. The notional amounts of foreign currency and other option and futures contracts entered into for trading purposes aggregated $680 million, $681 million and $608 million at June 30, 2010, June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2009, respectively. Although the notional amounts of these trading contracts are not recorded in the consolidated balance sheet, the fair values of all financial instruments used for trading activities are recorded in the consolidated balance sheet. The fair values of all trading account assets and liabilities totaled $488 million and $380 million, respectively, at June 30, 2010, $495 million and $354 million, respectively, at June 30, 2009, and $387 million and $302 million, respectively, at December 31, 2009. Included in trading account assets were assets related to deferred compensation plans totaling $33 million at June 30, 2010, $31 million at June 30, 2009 and $36 million at December 31, 2009. Changes in the fair value of such assets are recorded as “trading account and foreign exchange gains” in the consolidated statement of income. Included in “other liabilities” in the consolidated balance sheet at each of June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009 were $35 million of liabilities related to deferred compensation plans, while at December 31, 2009 $38 million of such liabilities related to deferred compensation plans. Changes in the balances of such liabilities due to the valuation of allocated investment options to which the liabilities are indexed are recorded in “other costs of operations” in the consolidated statement of income.

Given the Company’s policies, limits and positions, management believes that the potential loss exposure to the Company resulting from market risk associated with trading activities was not material, however, as previously noted, the Company is exposed to credit risk associated with counterparties to transactions related to the Company’s trading activities. Additional information about the Company’s use of derivative financial instruments in its trading activities is included in note 10 of Notes to Financial Statements.

Provision for Credit Losses

The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses that in management’s judgment is adequate to absorb losses inherent in the loan and lease portfolio. A provision for credit losses is recorded to adjust the level of the allowance as deemed necessary by management. The provision for credit losses in the second quarter of 2010 was $85 million, compared with $147 million in the year-earlier quarter and $105 million in the initial quarter of 2010. For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, the provision for credit losses was $190 million and $305 million, respectively. While the Company has experienced some improvement in its credit quality metrics during the first half of 2010, the levels of the provision since late 2007 have been higher than historical levels, reflecting a pronounced downturn in the U.S. economy, which entered recession in late-2007, and significant deterioration in the residential real estate market that began in early-2007 and continued through the recently completed quarter. Declining real estate valuations and higher levels of delinquencies and charge-offs have significantly affected the quality of the Company’s residential real estate loan portfolio. Specifically, the Company’s Alt-A residential real estate loan portfolio and its residential real estate builder and developer loan portfolio experienced the majority of the credit problems related to the turmoil in the residential real estate market place. As a result of higher unemployment levels and the recessionary economy, the Company also experienced increased levels of consumer and commercial loan charge-offs over the past two years.

- 64 -

Loans acquired in connection with the Provident and Bradford transactions were recorded at fair value with no carry-over of any previously recorded allowance for credit losses. Determining the fair value of the acquired loans required estimating cash flows expected to be collected on the loans and discounting those cash flows at current interest rates. The excess of cash flows expected at acquisition over the estimated fair value is recognized as interest income over the remaining lives of the loans. The difference between contractually required payments at acquisition and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition reflects estimated future credit losses and other contractually required payments that the Company does not expect to collect. The Company regularly evaluates the reasonableness of its cash flow projections. Any decreases to the expected cash flows require the Company to evaluate the need for an additional allowance for credit losses and could lead to charge-offs of acquired loan balances. Any significant increases in expected cash flows generally result in additional interest income to be recognized over the then-remaining lives of the loans.

Net loan charge-offs were $82 million in the recent quarter, compared with $138 million in the year-earlier quarter and $95 million in the first quarter of 2010. Net charge-offs as an annualized percentage of average loans and leases were .64% in 2010’s second quarter, compared with 1.09% and .74% in the quarters ended June 30, 2009 and March 31, 2010, respectively. Net charge-offs for the six-month period ended June 30 aggregated $176 million in 2010 and $238 million in 2009, representing .69% and .96%, respectively, of average loans and leases. A summary of net charge-offs by loan type follows:

Net charge-offs of commercial loans and leases in the second quarter of 2010 declined from the year-earlier quarter as a result of a $33 million partial charge-off of an unsecured loan to a single customer in the commercial real estate sector that was recognized in 2009’s second quarter. Included in net charge-offs of commercial real estate loans were net charge-offs of loans to residential homebuilders and developers of $17 million for each of the quarters ended June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009, and $22 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2010. Included in net charge-offs of residential real estate loans were net charge-offs of Alt-A first mortgage loans of $9 million in the second quarter of 2010, compared with $14 million and $8 million

- 65 -

during the quarters ended June 30, 2009 and March 31, 2010, respectively. Also reflected in residential real estate loan charge-offs were charge-offs of construction loans of $1 million in each of the first two quarters of 2010, compared with $12 million in the second quarter of 2009. The higher charge-offs in 2009’s second quarter reflected updated property appraisals and the delinquency status of the loans. Included in net charge-offs of consumer loans and leases were net charge-offs during the quarters ended June 30, 2010, June 30, 2009 and March 31, 2010, respectively, of: indirect automobile loans of $7 million, $14 million and $10 million; recreational vehicle loans of $6 million, $6 million and $7 million; and home equity loans and lines of credit, including Alt-A second lien loans, of $8 million, $9 million and $9 million. Including both first and second lien mortgages, net charge-offs of Alt-A loans totaled $10 million, $16 million and $9 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2010, June 30, 2009 and March 31, 2010, respectively.

Nonaccrual loans totaled $1.09 billion or 2.13% of total loans and leases outstanding at June 30, 2010, compared with $1.11 billion or 2.11% at June 30, 2009, $1.33 billion or 2.56% at December 31, 2009, and $1.34 billion or 2.60% at March 31, 2010. The continuing turbulence in the residential real estate market place has resulted in deteriorating real estate values and increased delinquencies, both for loans to consumers and loans to builders and developers of residential real estate. The depressed state of the U.S. economy has resulted in generally higher levels of nonaccrual loans. The decline in nonaccrual loans from December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010 to June 30, 2010 was largely due to recent quarter payments made by a borrower that operates retirement communities and a borrower that is a consumer finance and credit insurance company, and the transfer to real estate and other foreclosed assets during the recent quarter of $98 million of collateral related to a commercial real estate loan that was placed in nonaccrual status during the fourth quarter of 2009.

Accruing loans past due 90 days or more were $203 million or .40% of total loans and leases at each of June 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010, compared with $155 million or .29% at June 30, 2009, and $208 million or .40% at December 31, 2009. Those loans included $188 million, $144 million, $193 million and $195 million at June 30, 2010, June 30, 2009, December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010, respectively, of loans guaranteed by government-related entities. Such guaranteed loans included one-to-four family residential mortgage loans serviced by the Company that were repurchased to reduce associated servicing costs, including a requirement to advance principal and interest payments that had not been received from individual mortgagors. Despite the loans being purchased by the Company, the insurance or guarantee by the applicable government-related entity remains in force. The outstanding principal balances of the repurchased loans are fully guaranteed by government-related entities and totaled $171 million, $138 million, $176 million and $179 million at June 30, 2010, June 30, 2009, December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010, respectively. Loans past due 90 days or more and accruing interest that were guaranteed by government-related entities also included foreign commercial and industrial loans supported by the Export-Import Bank of the United States that totaled $12 million at June 30, 2010, compared with $3 million at June 30, 2009, $13 million at December 31, 2009 and $11 million at March 31, 2010.

Loans obtained in the 2009 acquisition transactions that were impaired at the date of acquisition were recorded at estimated fair value and are generally delinquent in payments, but, in accordance with GAAP the Company continues to accrue interest income on such loans based on the estimated expected cash flows associated with the loans. The carrying amount of such loans was $62 million at June 30, 2010, or approximately .1% of total loans.

In an effort to assist borrowers, the Company has modified the terms of select loans secured by residential real estate, largely from the Company’s portfolio of Alt-A loans. Included in loans outstanding, at June 30, 2010 were

- 66 -

$307 million of modified loans, of which $118 million were classified as nonaccrual. The remaining modified loans have demonstrated payment capability consistent with the modified terms and, accordingly, were classified as renegotiated loans and were accruing interest at June 30, 2010. Loan modifications included such actions as the extension of loan maturity dates (generally from thirty to forty years) and the lowering of interest rates and monthly payments. The objective of the modifications was to increase loan repayments by customers and thereby reduce net charge-offs. In accordance with GAAP, the modified loans are included in impaired loans for purposes of determining the allowance for credit losses. Modified residential real estate loans totaled $259 million as of June 30, 2009, of which $107 million were in nonaccrual status, and $292 million as of December 31, 2009, of which $108 million were in nonaccrual status.

Commercial loans and leases classified as nonaccrual totaled $248 million at June 30, 2010, $294 million at June 30, 2009, $322 million at December 31, 2009 and $325 million at March 31, 2010. The decline in such loans during the recent quarter reflects payments related to a single borrower that operates retirement communities and the payoff of a $37 million loan to a consumer financial credit insurance company.

Nonaccrual commercial real estate loans totaled $471 million at June 30, 2010, $448 million at June 30, 2009, $638 million at December 31, 2009 and $641 million at March 31, 2010. The decrease in such loans at June 30, 2010 as compared with December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010 reflects the removal from this category of a loan collateralized by real estate in New York City that initially was placed on nonaccrual status in the fourth quarter of 2009. Following a $7 million charge-off, the remaining $98 million of the loan’s carrying value was transferred to “Real Estate and Other Foreclosed Assets” in the recent quarter. Also contributing to the lower level of nonperforming commercial real estate loans at June 30, 2010 as compared with the two prior quarter-ends were decreases in such loans to residential homebuilders and developers, reflecting payments received of $44 million and charge-offs of $17 million. Information about the location of nonaccrual and charged-off loans to residential real estate builders and developers as of and for the three-month period ended June 30, 2010 is presented in the accompanying table.

levels of residential real estate loans classified as nonaccrual and to the level of charge-offs, largely in the Company’s Alt-A loans. Included in residential real estate loans classified as nonaccrual were Alt-A loans, which totaled $112 million, $124 million, $112 million and $114 million at June 30, 2010, June 30, 2009, December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010, respectively. Residential real estate loans past due 90 days or more and accruing interest totaled $172 million at June 30, 2010, compared with $138 million a year earlier, and $178 million and $181 million at December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010, respectively. A substantial portion of such amounts related to guaranteed loans repurchased from government-related entities. Information about the location of nonaccrual and charged-off residential real estate loans as of and for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 is presented in the accompanying table.

Nonaccrual consumer loans totaled $86 million at each of June 30, 2010 and 2009, compared with $91 million at December 31, 2009 and $92 million at March 31, 2010. As a percentage of consumer loan balances outstanding, nonaccrual consumer loans were .73% at June 30, 2010, compared with .71% a year earlier, .75% at December 31, 2009 and .78% at March 31, 2010. Included in nonaccrual consumer loans at June 30, 2010, June 30, 2009, December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010 were indirect automobile loans of $30 million, $28 million, $39 million and $35 million, respectively; recreational vehicle loans of $13 million, $14 million, $15 million and $16 million, respectively; and outstanding balances of home equity loans and lines of credit of $38 million, $38 million, $33 million and $37 million, respectively. Consumer loans delinquent 30-89 days at June 30, 2010 totaled $114 million, compared with $133 million a year earlier, $141 million at December 31, 2009 and $108 million at March 31, 2010. Consumer loans past due 90 days or more and accruing interest totaled $4 million at each of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 and $3 million at each of June 30, 2009 and March 31, 2010. Information about the location of nonaccrual and charged-off home equity loans and lines of credit as of and for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 is presented in the accompanying table.

Real estate and other foreclosed assets were $193 million at June 30, 2010, compared with $90 million at June 30, 2009 and $95 million at each of December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010. The increase in the recent quarter reflects the $98 million addition of the previously noted commercial real estate property located in New York City. Excluding that property, at June 30, 2010 the Company’s holding of residential real estate-related properties comprised 95% of the remaining foreclosed assets.

Management regularly assesses the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses by performing ongoing evaluations of the loan and lease portfolio, including such factors as the differing economic risks associated with each loan category, the financial condition of specific borrowers, the economic environment in which borrowers operate, the level of delinquent loans, the value of any collateral and, where applicable, the existence of any guarantees or indemnifications. Management evaluated the impact of changes in interest rates and overall economic conditions on the ability of borrowers to meet repayment obligations when quantifying the Company’s exposure to credit losses and assessing the adequacy of the Company’s allowance for such losses as of each reporting date. Factors also considered by management when performing its assessment, in addition to general economic conditions and the other factors described above, included, but were not limited to: (i) the impact of declining residential real estate values in the Company’s portfolio of loans to residential real estate builders and developers; (ii) the repayment performance associated with the Company’s portfolio of Alt-A residential mortgage loans; (iii) the concentration of commercial real estate loans in the Company’s loan portfolio, particularly the large concentration of loans secured by properties

- 70 -

in New York State, in general, and in the New York City metropolitan area, in particular; (iv) the amount of commercial and industrial loans to businesses in areas of New York State outside of the New York City metropolitan area and in central Pennsylvania that have historically experienced less economic growth and vitality than the vast majority of other regions of the country; and (v) the size of the Company’s portfolio of loans to individual consumers, which historically have experienced higher net charge-offs as a percentage of loans outstanding than other loan types. The level of the allowance is adjusted based on the results of management’s analysis.

Management cautiously and conservatively evaluated the allowance for credit losses as of June 30, 2010 in light of (i) lower residential real estate values and higher levels of delinquencies of residential real estate loans; (ii) the recession-like weak economic conditions in many of the markets served by the Company; (iii) continuing weakness in industrial employment in upstate New York and central Pennsylvania; (iv) the significant subjectivity involved in commercial real estate valuations for properties located in areas with stagnant or low growth economies; and (v) the amount of loan growth experienced by the Company. Considerable concerns exist about economic conditions in both national and international markets; the level and volatility of energy prices; a weakened housing market; the troubled state of financial and credit markets; Federal Reserve positioning of monetary policy; high levels of unemployment, which has caused consumer spending to slow; the underlying impact on businesses’ operations and abilities to repay loans as consumer spending slowed; continued stagnant population growth in the upstate New York and central Pennsylvania regions; and continued uncertainty about possible responses to state and local government budget deficits. Although the U.S. economy experienced recession and weak economic conditions during recent years, as compared with other areas of the country, the impact of those conditions was not as pronounced on borrowers in the traditionally slower growth or stagnant regions of upstate New York and central Pennsylvania. Approximately one-half of the Company’s loans are to customers in New York State and Pennsylvania. Home prices in upstate New York and central Pennsylvania were largely unchanged in 2009, in contrast to declines in values in other regions of the country. Therefore, despite the conditions, as previously described, the most severe credit issues experienced by the Company have been centered around residential real estate, including loans to builders and developers of residential real estate, in areas other than New York State and Pennsylvania. In response, the Company has conducted detailed reviews of all loans to residential real estate builders and developers that exceeded $2.5 million. Those credit reviews often resulted in commencement of intensified collection efforts, including instances of foreclosure. During 2009, the Company experienced increases in nonaccrual commercial loans, largely the result of a small number of large relationships, and in nonaccrual commercial real estate loans, largely due to builders and developers of residential real estate loans and one large loan in New York City. The Company utilizes an extensive loan grading system which is applied to all commercial and commercial real estate loans. On a quarterly basis, the Company’s loan review department reviews all commercial and commercial real estate loans greater than $350,000 that are classified as Special Mention or worse. Meetings are held with loan officers and their managers, workout specialists and Senior Management to discuss each of the relationships. Borrower-specific information is reviewed, including operating results, future cash flows, recent developments and the borrower’s outlook, and other pertinent data. The timing and extent of potential losses, considering collateral valuation and other factors, and the Company’s potential courses of action are reviewed. To the extent that these loans are collateral-dependent, they are evaluated based on the fair value of the loan’s collateral as estimated at or near the financial statement date. As the quality of a loan deteriorates to the point of classifying the loan as Special Mention, the process of obtaining updated collateral valuation information is usually initiated, unless it is not considered warranted given

- 71 -

factors such as the relative size of the loan, the characteristics of the collateral or the age of the last valuation. In those latter cases, when current appraisals may not yet be available, prior appraisals are utilized with adjustments, as deemed necessary, for estimates of subsequent declines in value as determined by line of business and/or loan workout personnel in the respective geographic regions. Those adjustments are reviewed and assessed for reasonableness by the Company’s loan review department. Accordingly, for real estate collateral securing larger commercial and commercial real estate loans, estimated collateral values are based on current appraisals and estimates of value. For non-real estate loans, collateral is assigned a discounted estimated liquidation value and, depending on the nature of the collateral, is verified through field exams or other procedures. In assessing collateral, real estate and non-real estate values are reduced by an estimate of selling costs. With regard to residential real estate loans, the Company expanded its collections and loan work-out staff and further refined its loss identification and estimation techniques by reference to loan performance and house price depreciation data in specific areas of the country where collateral that was securing the Company’s residential real estate loans was located. For residential real estate loans, including home equity loans and lines of credit, the excess of the loan balance over the net realizable value of the property collateralizing the loan is charged-off when the loan becomes 150 days delinquent. That charge-off is based on recent indications of value from external parties.

Factors that influence the Company’s credit loss experience include overall economic conditions affecting businesses and consumers generally, but also residential and commercial real estate valuations, in particular, given the size of the real estate loan portfolios. Reflecting the factors and conditions as described herein, the Company has experienced historically high levels of nonaccrual loans and net charge-offs of real estate-related loans, particularly in the Company’s portfolios of residential real estate loans, including first and second lien Alt-A mortgage loans, and loans to builders and developers of residential real estate. The Company has also experienced increases in nonaccrual commercial real estate loans. Commercial real estate valuations can be highly subjective, as they are based upon many assumptions. Such valuations can be significantly affected over relatively short periods of time by changes in business climate, economic conditions, interest rates and, in many cases, the results of operations of businesses and other occupants of the real property. Similarly, residential real estate valuations can be impacted by housing trends, the availability of financing at reasonable interest rates, and general economic conditions affecting consumers.

Management believes that the allowance for credit losses at June 30, 2010 was adequate to absorb credit losses inherent in the portfolio as of that date. The allowance for credit losses was $895 million, or 1.75% of total loans and leases at June 30, 2010, compared with $855 million or 1.62% a year earlier, $878 million or 1.69% at December 31, 2009 and $891 million or 1.73% at March 31, 2010. The ratio of the allowance to total loans at each of those dates reflects the impact of loans obtained in the acquisition of Provident and, except for June 30, 2009, loans obtained in the Bradford transaction that have been recorded at estimated fair value based on estimated future cash flows expected to be received on those loans. Those cash flows reflect the impact of expected defaults on customer repayment performances. As a result, and as required by GAAP, there was no carry-over of the allowance previously recorded by Provident and Bradford. Accordingly, although general in nature, the allowance for credit losses is predominantly intended to provide for losses inherent in the Company’s legacy loans (that is, total loans excluding loans acquired in the Provident and Bradford transactions). The allowance for credit losses applicable to legacy loans expressed as a percentage of such loans was 1.86% at each of June 30 and March 31, 2010, compared with 1.76% and 1.83% at June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2009, respectively. The level of the allowance

- 72 -

reflects management’s evaluation of the loan and lease portfolio as described herein. Should the various credit factors considered by management in establishing the allowance for credit losses change and should management’s assessment of losses inherent in the loan portfolio also change, the level of the allowance as a percentage of loans could increase or decrease in future periods. The ratio of the allowance for credit losses to nonaccrual loans was 82% at June 30, 2010, compared with 77% a year earlier, 66% at December 31, 2009 and 67% at March 31, 2010. Given the Company’s general position as a secured lender and its practice of charging off loan balances when collection is deemed doubtful, that ratio and changes in that ratio are generally not an indicative measure of the adequacy of the Company’s allowance for credit losses, nor does management rely upon that ratio in assessing the adequacy of the allowance. The level of the allowance reflects management’s evaluation of the loan and lease portfolio as of each respective date.

Other Income

Other income totaled $274 million in the second quarter of 2010, little changed from $272 million in the year-earlier quarter, but 6% higher than $258 million in the first quarter of 2010. Reflected in such income were net losses on investment securities (including other-than-temporary impairment losses) of $22 million in the recent quarter, $24 million in 2009’s second quarter and $26 million in the initial quarter of 2010. Other-than-temporary impairment charges of $22 million were recognized in the recent quarter related to a $12 million write-down of AIB ADSs, which were obtained in M&T’s acquisition of Allfirst in 2003, and $10 million of charges related to certain of the Company’s privately issued residential mortgage-backed CMOs and CDOs backed by pooled trust preferred securities. In the second quarter of 2009 and in the first quarter of 2010, other-than-temporary impairment losses of $25 million and $27 million, respectively, were recorded on certain of the Company’s privately issued CMO holdings. Excluding gains and losses on bank investment securities (including other-than-temporary impairment losses), other income aggregated $296 million in each of the second quarters of 2010 and 2009, compared with $284 million in the first quarter of 2010. As compared with 2009’s second quarter, higher service charges on deposit accounts during the recent quarter, largely due to the impact of the 2009 acquisitions, were offset by declines in mortgage banking revenues and trading account and foreign exchange gains and higher losses from M&T’s pro-rata share of the operating results of Bayview Lending Group, LLC (“BLG”). As compared with the initial quarter of 2010, higher mortgage banking revenues and service charges on deposit accounts contributed to the improvement in the recent quarter.

Mortgage banking revenues were $47 million in the recently completed quarter, down 11% from $53 million in the year-earlier quarter, but up 14% from $41 million in the first quarter of 2010. Mortgage banking revenues are comprised of both residential and commercial mortgage banking activities. The Company’s involvement in commercial mortgage banking activities includes the origination, sales and servicing of loans under the multifamily loan programs of Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.

Residential mortgage banking revenues, consisting of realized gains from sales of residential mortgage loans and loan servicing rights, unrealized gains and losses on residential mortgage loans held for sale and related commitments, residential mortgage loan servicing fees, and other residential mortgage loan-related fees and income, were $36 million in the second quarter of 2010, compared with $42 million in the corresponding 2009 period and $29 million in the initial 2010 quarter. The decline in residential mortgage banking revenues in the recent quarter as compared with the second quarter of 2009 was largely attributable to a 26% decline in origination volumes that was partially offset by wider margins associated with that activity. The increase in residential

- 73 -

mortgage banking revenues in the recent quarter as compared with the first quarter of 2010 reflects a 12% increase in origination volumes and the realization of wider margins.

New commitments to originate residential mortgage loans to be sold were approximately $1.1 billion in the recent quarter, compared with $1.5 billion and $1.0 billion in the second quarter of 2009 and the initial 2010 quarter, respectively. Similarly, closed residential mortgage loans originated for sale to other investors were approximately $1.0 billion in the two most recent quarters, compared with $1.8 billion during the three-month period ended June 30, 2009. Realized gains from sales of residential mortgage loans and loan servicing rights and recognized net unrealized gains and losses attributable to residential mortgage loans held for sale, commitments to originate loans for sale and commitments to sell loans totaled to a gain of $15 million in the recently completed quarter, compared with gains of $20 million in the second quarter of 2009 and $8 million in the initial 2010 quarter.

The Company is contractually obligated to repurchase previously sold loans that do not ultimately meet investor sale criteria related to underwriting procedures or loan documentation. When required to do so, the Company may reimburse loan purchasers for losses incurred or may repurchase certain loans. Since early 2007 when the Company recognized a $6 million charge related to declines in market values of previously sold residential real estate loans that the Company could have been required to repurchase, the Company has regularly reduced residential mortgage banking revenues by an estimate for losses related to its obligations to loan purchasers. The amount of those charges varies based on the volume of loans sold, the level of reimbursement requests received from loan purchasers and estimates of losses that may be associated with previously sold loans. That variability has not had a material impact on the Company’s results of operations and management believes that any liability arising out of the Company’s obligation to loan purchasers as of June 30, 2010 is not material to the Company’s consolidated financial position. Nevertheless, in recent quarters the Company has received increased requests from loan purchasers for reimbursement. The Company has considered those requests in assessing the estimated impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Revenues from servicing residential mortgage loans for others were $20 million in each of the three-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010, and $21 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2009. Included in servicing revenues were amounts related to purchased servicing rights associated with small balance commercial mortgage loans which totaled $7 million in the two most recent quarters, compared with $8 million in the second quarter of 2009.

Residential mortgage loans serviced for others totaled $21.4 billion at June 30, 2010, compared with $21.2 billion at June 30, 2009, $21.7 billion at March 31, 2010 and $21.4 billion at December 31, 2009, including the small balance commercial mortgage loans noted above of approximately $5.6 billion at June 30, 2010, $5.8 billion at each of June 30, 2009 and March 31, 2010, and $5.5 billion at December 31, 2009. Capitalized residential mortgage servicing assets, net of a valuation allowance for impairment, were $124 million at June 30, 2010, compared with $148 million a year earlier, $133 million at March 31, 2010 and $141 million at December 31, 2009. The valuation allowance for possible impairment of residential mortgage servicing assets totaled $2 million, $4 million and $50 thousand at June 30, 2010, June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2009, respectively. There was no valuation allowance at March 31, 2010. Included in capitalized residential mortgage servicing assets were $33 million at June 30, 2010, $49 million at June 30, 2009, $36 million at March 31, 2010 and $40 million at December 31, 2009 of purchased servicing rights associated with the small balance commercial mortgage loans noted above. Servicing rights for the small balance commercial mortgage loans were purchased from BLG or its affiliates. In addition, at June 30, 2010, capitalized servicing rights included $13 million for servicing rights for $3.9 billion of residential real

- 74 -

estate loans that were purchased from affiliates of BLG. Additional information about the Company’s relationship with BLG and its affiliates is provided in note 15 of Notes to Financial Statements.

Loans held for sale that are secured by residential real estate aggregated $450 million at June 30, 2010, $720 million at June 30, 2009 and $530 million at December 31, 2009. Commitments to sell loans and commitments to originate loans for sale at pre-determined rates were $833 million and $684 million, respectively, at June 30, 2010, $1.3 billion and $910 million, respectively, at June 30, 2009, and $936 million and $631 million, respectively, at December 31, 2009. Net unrealized gains on residential mortgage loans held for sale, commitments to sell loans, and commitments to originate loans for sale were $19 million and $21 million at June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $15 million at December 31, 2009. Changes in such net unrealized gains are recorded in mortgage banking revenues and resulted in net increases in revenues of $5 million in the recent quarter and net decreases in revenues of $1 million in each of the second quarter of 2009 and the first quarter of 2010.

Commercial mortgage banking revenues were $11 million in each of the second quarters of 2010 and 2009, and $12 million in the first quarter of 2010. Included in such amounts were revenues from loan origination and sales activities of $7 million in the recent quarter, compared with $8 million in each of the second quarter of 2009 and the initial 2010 quarter. Commercial mortgage loan servicing revenues were $4 million in each of the first and second quarters of 2010 and $3 million in the second quarter of 2009. Capitalized commercial mortgage servicing assets totaled $37 million and $28 million at June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $33 million at December 31, 2009. Commercial mortgage loans serviced for other investors totaled $7.6 billion, $6.9 billion and $7.1 billion at June 30, 2010, June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2009, respectively, and included $1.5 billion, $1.2 billion and $1.3 billion, respectively, of loan balances for which investors had recourse to the Company if such balances are ultimately uncollectible. Commitments to sell commercial mortgage loans and commitments to originate commercial mortgage loans for sale were $146 million and $121 million, respectively, at June 30, 2010, $156 million and $75 million, respectively, at June 30, 2009 and $303 million and $180 million, respectively, at December 31, 2009. Commercial mortgage loans held for sale at June 30, 2010 and 2009 were $25 million and $81 million, respectively, and $123 million at December 31, 2009.

Service charges on deposit accounts aggregated $129 million in the second quarter of 2010, compared with $112 million in the corresponding 2009 quarter and $120 million in the first quarter of 2010. Contributing to the rise in such fees from the second quarter of 2009 were service charges on deposit accounts obtained in the 2009 acquisition transactions and higher debit card fees resulting from increased transaction volumes. The increase from the immediately preceding quarter related to consumer deposit service charges and reflects traditional first quarter seasonal declines in customer transaction volumes. The Federal Reserve and other bank regulators have adopted regulations requiring expanded disclosure of overdraft and other fees assessed to consumers and have issued guidance that allows consumers to elect to not be subject to fees for certain deposit account transactions which began July 1, 2010 for new customers and begins August 15, 2010 for pre-existing customers. The Company has engaged in an outreach program to customers, particularly those who are frequent users of overdraft services, to ensure they understand such services and to allow them the opportunity to continue to receive those services. Nevertheless, at the present time, although the Company cannot predict the extent to which customers will elect to not avail themselves of the respective deposit account services, it is reasonable to expect that certain customers will decline such services and that service charges on deposit accounts could decline in the third quarter of 2010. Based on current estimates, that decline could be ten to fifteen percent as compared with the recent quarter’s service charge revenue.

Trust income totaled $30 million in the second quarter of 2010, compared with $32 million and $31 million in the similar 2009 quarter and the first quarter of 2010, respectively. The Company has experienced lower levels of trust income over the last two years, reflecting lower balances in proprietary mutual funds and fee waivers by the Company in order to continue to pay customers a yield on their investments in proprietary money-market mutual funds. Those waived fees totaled approximately $4 million, $2 million and $5 million during the three-month periods ended June 30, 2010, June 30, 2009 and March 31, 2010, respectively. Brokerage services income, which includes revenues from the sale of mutual funds and annuities and securities brokerage fees, totaled $13 million in each of the second quarters of 2010 and 2009 and in the first quarter of 2010. Trading account and foreign exchange activity resulted in gains of $4 million and $8 million during the second quarters of 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $5 million in the initial 2010 quarter. The lower revenues in the two most recent quarters as compared with the second quarter of 2009 were largely attributable to net decreases in the market values of trading account assets held in conjunction with deferred compensation arrangements.

Including other-than-temporary impairment losses, during the second quarter of 2010 the Company recognized losses on investment securities of $22 million, compared with losses of $24 million in the year-earlier quarter and losses of $26 million in the first quarter of 2010. Other-than-temporary impairment charges of $22 million, $25 million and $27 million were recorded in the quarters ended June 30, 2010, June 30, 2009 and March 31, 2010, respectively. Each reporting period, the Company reviews its investment securities for other-than-temporary impairment. For equity securities, such as the Company’s holding of AIB ADSs, the Company considers various factors to determine if the decline in value is other than temporary, including the duration and extent of the decline in value, the factors contributing to the decline in fair value, including the financial condition of the issuer as well as the conditions of the industry in which it operates, and the prospects for a recovery in fair value of the equity security. For debt securities, the Company analyzes the creditworthiness of the issuer or reviews the credit performance of the underlying collateral supporting the bond. For debt securities backed by pools of loans, such as privately issued mortgage-backed securities, the Company estimates the cash flows of the underlying loan collateral using forward-looking assumptions of default rates, loss severities and prepayment speeds. Estimated collateral cash flows are then utilized to estimate bond-specific cash flows to determine the ultimate collectibility of the bond. If the present value of the cash flows indicates that the Company should not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of a bond or if the Company intends to sell the bond or it more likely than not will be required to sell the bond before recovery of its amortized cost basis, an other-than-temporary impairment loss is recognized. If an other-than-temporary impairment loss is deemed to have occurred, the investment security’s cost basis is adjusted, as appropriate for the circumstances. Additional information about other-than-temporary impairment losses is included herein under the heading “Capital.”

M&T’s share of the operating results of BLG in each of the two most recent quarters was a loss of $6 million, compared with a loss of $207 thousand in the second quarter of 2009. The operating losses of BLG in the respective quarters reflect the disruptions in the privately issued mortgage-backed securities market and higher provisions for losses associated with securitized loans and other loans held by BLG, and costs associated with severance and certain lease terminations incurred by BLG as it downsized its operations. Despite the credit and liquidity disruptions that began in 2007, BLG had been successfully securitizing and selling significant volumes of small-balance commercial real estate loans until the first quarter of 2008. In response to the illiquidity in the marketplace since that time, BLG reduced its originations activities, scaled back its workforce and made use of its

- 76 -

contingent liquidity sources. As a result of past securitization activities, BLG is entitled to cash flows from mortgage assets that it owns or that are owned by its affiliates and is also entitled to receive distributions from affiliates that provide asset management and other services. Accordingly, the Company believes that BLG is capable of realizing positive cash flows that could be available for distribution to its owners, including M&T, despite a lack of positive GAAP-earnings. In assessing M&T’s investment in BLG for other-than-temporary impairment at June 30, 2010, with respect to BLG’s commercial mortgage origination and securitization activities, the Company conservatively projected no further securitization activities. With respect to mortgage assets held by BLG and its affiliates, M&T estimated future cash flow from those assets using various assumptions for future defaults and loss severities to arrive at an expected amount of cash flow that BLG would be required to distribute to M&T. As of June 30, 2010, the weighted-average assumption of projected default percentage on the underlying mortgage loan collateral supporting those mortgage assets was 32% and the weighted-average loss severity assumption was 60%. Lastly, M&T considered different scenarios of projected cash flows that could be generated by the asset management and servicing operations of BLG’s affiliates. BLG is contractually entitled to participate in any distributions from those affiliates. Such estimates were derived from company-provided forecasts of financial results and through discussions with their senior management with respect to longer-term projections of growth in assets under management and asset servicing portfolios. M&T then discounted the various projections using discount rates that ranged from 8% to 17%. Upon evaluation of those results, management concluded that M&T’s investment in BLG was not other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2010. Nevertheless, if BLG is not able to realize sufficient cash flows for the benefit of M&T, the Company may be required to recognize an other-than-temporary impairment charge in a future period for some portion of the $234 million book value of its investment in BLG. Information about the Company’s relationship with BLG and its affiliates is included in note 15 of Notes to Financial Statements.

Other revenues from operations totaled $79 million in each of the two most recent quarters, compared with $77 million in the second quarter of 2009. Included in other revenues from operations were the following significant components. Letter of credit and other credit-related fees totaled $26 million in the second quarter of 2010, $28 million in the second quarter of 2009, and $29 million in the first quarter of 2010. Tax-exempt income from bank owned life insurance, which includes increases in the cash surrender value of life insurance policies and benefits received, totaled $14 million in the second quarter of 2010, $13 million in the year-earlier quarter and $12 million in the first quarter of 2010. Revenues from merchant discount and credit card fees were $12 million, $10 million and $11 million in the three-month periods ended June 30, 2010, June 30, 2009 and March 31, 2010, respectively. Insurance-related sales commissions and other revenues totaled $9 million in the second quarter of 2010, compared with $12 million in the corresponding 2009 quarter and $11 million in the initial 2010 quarter. No other revenue source contributed more than $5 million to “other revenues from operations” in any of the quarterly periods discussed herein.

Other income rose 5% to $531 million in the first six months of 2010 from $504 million in the first half of 2009. Reflected in other income were net losses on bank investment securities (including other-than-temporary impairment losses) of $49 million in 2010 and $56 million in 2009. Excluding gains and losses from bank investment securities (including other-than-temporary impairment losses), other income aggregated $580 million and $560 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. That improvement was attributable to increases in service charges on deposit accounts, largely the result of accounts obtained in the 2009 acquisition transactions, letter of credit and other credit-related fees and income from bank owned life insurance, partially offset by declines in revenues from

- 77 -

providing mortgage banking and trust services and higher losses from M&T’s investment in BLG.

Mortgage banking revenues were $89 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2010, 19% below $109 million in the year-earlier period. Residential mortgage banking revenues declined to $65 million in the first half of 2010 from $90 million in the first six months of 2009. New commitments to originate residential mortgage loans to be sold were $2.1 billion and $3.6 billion during the first six months of 2010 and 2009, respectively. Closed residential mortgage loans originated for sale to other investors during the first six months of 2010 totaled $2.0 billion, compared with $3.5 billion in the corresponding 2009 period. Realized gains from sales of residential mortgage loans and loan servicing rights and recognized unrealized gains and losses on residential mortgage loans held for sale, commitments to originate loans for sale and commitments to sell loans totaled to gains of $23 million and $47 million during the first six months of 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Revenues from servicing residential mortgage loans for others were $40 million and $41 million for the first half of 2010 and 2009, respectively. Included in such amounts were revenues related to purchased servicing rights associated with the previously noted small balance commercial mortgage loans of $14 million and $15 million for the first six months of 2010 and 2009, respectively. Commercial mortgage banking revenues totaled $23 million and $19 million during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. That increase reflected higher origination activity in the first half of 2010.

Service charges on deposit accounts totaled $249 million and $214 million during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. That improvement resulted largely from the impact of the 2009 acquisition transactions and increased debit card fees resulting from higher transaction volumes. Trust income decreased 9% to $61 million in the first half of 2010 from $67 million a year earlier, and brokerage services income declined 10% to $26 million during the first six months of 2010 from $29 million in the corresponding 2009 period. The declines in trust and brokerage services income were largely attributable to lower fees for providing services that are tied to the performance of bond and equity markets. Reflected in trust income were $10 million and $2 million of fee waivers during the first six months of 2010 and 2009, respectively, related to proprietary money-market mutual funds. Trading account and foreign exchange activity resulted in gains of $8 million and $9 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. M&T’s investment in BLG resulted in losses of $12 million and $4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Investment securities gains and losses totaled to losses of $49 million and $56 million for the first six months of 2010 and 2009, respectively. Included in those amounts were other-than-temporary impairment losses of $49 million and $57 million during the first two quarters of 2010 and 2009, respectively. Other revenues from operations were $159 million in the first six months of 2010 and $137 million in the similar 2009 period. Included in other revenues from operations during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were letter of credit and other credit-related fees of $54 million and $49 million, respectively, income from bank owned life insurance of $26 million and $23 million, respectively, merchant discount and credit card fees of $22 million and $20 million, respectively, and insurance-related sales commissions and other revenues of $20 million and $18 million, respectively.

Other Expense

Other expense totaled $476 million in the second quarter of 2010, down 16% from $564 million in the year-earlier quarter and 3% below $489 million in the initial quarter of 2010. Included in those amounts are expenses considered by management to be “nonoperating” in nature consisting of

- 78 -

amortization of core deposit and other intangible assets of $15 million in each of the second quarters of 2010 and 2009, and $16 million in the first quarter of 2010, and merger-related expenses of $66 million in the three-month period ended June 30, 2009. There were no merger-related expenses in the first or second quarters of 2010. Exclusive of these nonoperating expenses, noninterest operating expenses totaled $461 million in the recent quarter, compared with $482 million in the second quarter of 2009 and $473 million in the first quarter of 2010. The major factor in the lower level of operating expenses in the recent quarter as compared with the year-earlier quarter was a decline in FDIC assessments resulting from the special assessment levied on financial institutions by the FDIC during 2009’s second quarter. Also contributing to the improvement were lower costs related to the foreclosure process for residential real estate properties. Partially offsetting those factors were higher levels of personnel and occupancy expenses related to the operations acquired from Provident and a $13 million reduction of the allowance for impairment of capitalized residential mortgage servicing rights in the second quarter of 2009. In comparison, a $2 million addition to the impairment allowance was recognized during the recent quarter. Contributing to the decline in operating expenses in the recent quarter as compared with the initial 2010 quarter were lower personnel costs from seasonally higher first quarter stock-based compensation, payroll-related taxes and contributions for retirement savings plan benefits associated with incentive compensation payments.

Other expense for the first six months of 2010 aggregated $965 million, down 4% from $1.0 billion in the similar period of 2009. Included in those amounts are expenses considered to be “nonoperating” in nature consisting of amortization of core deposit and other intangible assets of $31 million in each of the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, and merger-related expenses of $69 million in the first two quarters of 2009. Exclusive of these nonoperating expenses, noninterest operating expenses for the first half of 2010 increased 3% to $934 million from $903 million in the corresponding 2009 period. The most significant factors for that increase were costs associated with the acquired operations of Provident. Table 2 provides a reconciliation of other expense to noninterest operating expense.

Salaries and employee benefits expense totaled $246 million in the recent quarter, compared with $250 million in the second quarter of 2009 and $264 million in the initial 2010 quarter. As noted in table 2, merger-related salaries and benefits costs were $9 million in the second quarter of 2009. Those expenses consisted predominantly of severance expense for Provident employees. Exclusive of those merger-related expenses, salaries and employee benefits expense increased 2% in the recent quarter as compared with a year earlier. The decline in salaries and benefit expenses from the first to the second quarter of 2010 reflected decreased costs for stock-based compensation, payroll-related taxes and contributions for retirement savings plan benefits associated with annual incentive compensation payments made in the first quarter of each year. Salaries and employee benefits expense were $510 million and $499 million in the first six months of 2010 and 2009, respectively. Exclusive of merger-related expenses, salaries and employee benefits expense rose 4% to $510 million in the first half of 2010 from $491 million in the similar 2009 period. That increase reflects the impact of operations associated with the May 23, 2009 acquisition of Provident.

The Company, in accordance with GAAP, has accelerated the recognition of compensation costs for stock-based awards granted to retirement-eligible employees and employees who will become retirement-eligible prior to full vesting of the award. As a result, stock-based compensation expense during the first quarters of 2010 and 2009 included $7 million and $9 million, respectively, that would have been recognized over the normal four-year vesting period if not for the accelerated expense recognition provisions of GAAP. That acceleration had no effect on the value of stock-based compensation awarded to employees. Salaries and benefits expense included stock-based compensation of $12 million, $11 million and $20 million during

- 79 -

the quarters ended June 30, 2010, June 30, 2009 and March 31, 2010, and $32 million and $33 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The number of full-time equivalent employees was 13,022 at June 30, 2010, 14,187 at June 30, 2009, 13,639 at December 31, 2009 and 13,226 at March 31, 2010.

Excluding the nonoperating expense items described earlier from each period, nonpersonnel operating expenses were $215 million in the recent quarter, compared with $241 million in the second quarter of 2009 and $209 million in the initial three months of 2010. On the same basis, such expenses were $424 million and $412 million during the first six months of 2010 and 2009, respectively. The decline in nonpersonnel operating expenses in 2010’s second quarter as compared with the year-earlier quarter was due largely to lower FDIC assessments, attributable to the FDIC’s $33 million special assessment as of June 30, 2009. Also contributing to the lower level of expenses in the recent quarter was a $20 million decline in costs related to foreclosed residential real estate properties, reflecting second quarter 2009 write-downs of the carrying values of some properties resulting from lower appraised values. Partially offsetting those factors was a recent quarter $2 million addition to the valuation allowance for capitalized residential mortgage servicing rights, compared with a partial reversal of such allowance of $13 million in the second quarter of 2009. The 3% increase in nonpersonnel operating expenses in the recent quarter as compared with the initial quarter of 2010 was largely due to higher costs for professional services. The higher level of nonpersonnel operating expenses in the first half of 2010 as compared with the corresponding period of 2009 reflects the impact of the operations obtained in the Provident acquisition. Also contributing to the higher level of nonpersonnel operating expenses in 2010 was a $2 million addition to the valuation allowance for capitalized residential mortgage servicing rights, compared with partial reversals of that allowance aggregating $18 million in the first half of 2009. Partially offsetting those factors was a $20 million decline in expenses related to foreclosed residential real estate properties.

The efficiency ratio, or noninterest operating expenses (as defined above) divided by the sum of taxable-equivalent net interest income and noninterest income (exclusive of gains and losses from bank investment securities and gains on merger-related transactions), measures the relationship of noninterest operating expenses to revenues. The Company’s efficiency ratio was 53.1% during the recent quarter, compared with 60.0% during the year-earlier quarter and 55.9% in the first quarter of 2010. The efficiency ratios for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were 54.4% and 59.4%, respectively. Noninterest operating expenses used in calculating the efficiency ratio exclude the amortization of core deposit and other intangible assets and the merger-related expenses noted earlier, but do reflect the previously mentioned amount associated with the FDIC special assessment. If charges for amortization of core deposit and other intangible assets were included, the efficiency ratio for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2010, June 30, 2009 and March 31, 2010 would have been 54.8%, 61.9% and 57.8%, respectively, and for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 would have been 56.3% and 61.4%, respectively.

Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes for the second quarter of 2010 was $91 million, compared with $11 million and $69 million in the year-earlier quarter and first quarter of 2010, respectively. The effective tax rates were 32.5%, 18.1% and 31.3% for the quarters ended June 30, 2010, June 30, 2009 and March 31, 2010, respectively. For the first six months of 2010 and 2009, the provision for income taxes totaled $160 million and $31 million, respectively, and the effective tax rates were 32.0% and 21.1%, respectively. The effective tax rate is affected by the level of income earned that is

exempt from tax relative to the overall level of pre-tax income, the level of income allocated to the various state and local jurisdictions where the Company operates, because tax rates differ among such jurisdictions, and the impact of any large but infrequently occurring items. For example, although the merger-related expenses incurred during 2009’s second quarter are predominantly deductible for purposes of computing income tax expense, those charges had an impact on the effective tax rate because they lowered pre-tax income relative to the amounts of tax-exempt income and other permanent differences that impact the effective tax rate.

The Company’s effective tax rate in future periods will be affected by the results of operations allocated to the various tax jurisdictions within which the Company operates, any change in income tax laws or regulations within those jurisdictions, and interpretations of income tax regulations that differ from the Company’s interpretations by any of various tax authorities that may examine tax returns filed by M&T or any of its subsidiaries.

Capital

Stockholders’ equity was $8.1 billion at June 30, 2010, representing 11.89% of total assets, compared with $7.4 billion or 10.58% of total assets a year earlier and $7.8 billion or 11.26% at December 31, 2009. Included in stockholders’ equity at those dates was $600 million of Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A, and warrants to purchase M&T common stock issued on December 23, 2008 as part of the U.S. Treasury Capital Purchase Program (“CPP”). The financial statement value of that preferred stock was $576 million at June 30, 2010, $570 million at June 30, 2009 and $573 million at December 31, 2009. Provident also participated in the CPP on November 14, 2008. As a result, Provident’s $151.5 million of preferred stock related thereto was converted to M&T Fixed Rate Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series C, with warrants to purchase M&T common stock. The estimated fair value ascribed to the Series C Preferred Stock was $129 million on the May 23, 2009 acquisition date. The financial statement value of the Series C Preferred Stock was $133 million, $129 million and $131 million at June 30, 2010, June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2009, respectively. The holder of the Series A and Series C preferred stock is entitled to cumulative cash dividends of 5% per annum for five years after the date of initial issuance and 9% per annum thereafter, payable quarterly in arrears. That preferred stock is redeemable at the option of M&T, subject to regulatory approval. M&T also obtained another series of preferred stock as part of the Provident acquisition that was converted to $26.5 million of M&T Series B Mandatory Convertible Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, liquidation preference of $1,000 per share. The 26,500 shares of the Series B Preferred Stock will automatically convert into 433,148 shares of M&T common stock on April 1, 2011. The Series B Preferred Stock pays dividends at a rate of 10% per annum on the liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, payable quarterly in arrears. The estimated acquisition date fair value of the Series B Preferred Stock was approximately equal to that stock’s $26.5 million redemption value.

Common stockholders’ equity was $7.4 billion, or $61.77 per share, at June 30, 2010, compared with $6.7 billion, or $56.51 per share, at June 30, 2009 and $7.0 billion, or $59.31 per share, at December 31, 2009. Tangible equity per common share, which excludes goodwill and core deposit and other intangible assets and applicable deferred tax balances, was $31.15 at the end of the second quarter of 2010, compared with $25.17 a year earlier and $28.27 at December 31, 2009. The Company’s ratio of tangible common equity to tangible assets was 5.75% at June 30, 2010, compared with 4.49% and 5.13% at June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2009, respectively. A reconciliation of total common stockholders’ equity and tangible common equity and total assets and tangible assets as of each of those respective dates is presented in table 2.

Stockholders’ equity reflects accumulated other comprehensive income or loss, which includes the net after-tax impact of unrealized gains or losses on investment securities classified as available-for-sale, gains or losses associated with interest rate swap agreements designated as cash flow hedges, and adjustments to reflect the funded status of defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans. Net unrealized losses on available-for-sale investment securities, net of applicable tax effect, were $83 million, or $.70 per common share, at June 30, 2010, compared with similar losses of $407 million, or $3.45 per common share, at June 30, 2009 and $220 million, or $1.86 per common share, at December 31, 2009. Such unrealized losses represent the difference, net of applicable income tax effect, between the estimated fair value and amortized cost of investment securities classified as available for sale, including the remaining unamortized unrealized losses on investment securities that have been transferred to held-to-maturity classification.

Reflected in net unrealized losses at June 30, 2010 were pre tax-effect unrealized losses of $344 million on available-for-sale investment securities with an amortized cost of $1.9 billion and pre tax-effect unrealized gains of $272 million on securities with an amortized cost of $4.3 billion. The pre tax-effect unrealized losses reflect $276 million of losses on privately issued mortgage-backed securities with an amortized cost of $1.6 million and an estimated fair value of $1.4 billion (considered Level 3 valuations) and $48 million of losses on trust preferred securities issued by financial institutions having an amortized cost of $147 million and an estimated fair value of $99 million (generally considered Level 2 valuations).

The Company’s privately issued residential mortgage-backed securities classified as available for sale are generally collateralized by prime and Alt-A residential mortgage loans as depicted in the accompanying table. Information in the table is as of June 30, 2010. As with any accounting estimate or other data, changes in fair values and investment ratings may occur at any time.

Reflecting the credit stress associated with residential mortgage loans, trading activity for privately issued mortgage-backed securities has been dramatically reduced. In estimating values for such securities, the Company was significantly restricted in the level of market observable assumptions

- 82 -

used in the valuation of its privately issued mortgage-backed securities portfolio. Because of the relative inactivity and lack of observable valuation inputs, the Company classifies its privately issued mortgage-backed securities portfolio as Level 3. To assist in the determination of fair value for its privately issued mortgage-backed securities, the Company engaged two independent pricing sources at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009. In April 2009, guidance was provided by the FASB for estimating fair value when the volume and level of trading activity for an asset or liability have significantly decreased. In consideration of that guidance, the Company performed internal modeling to estimate the cash flows and fair value of 144 of its privately issued residential mortgage-backed securities with an amortized cost basis of $1.7 billion at June 30, 2010. The Company’s internal modeling techniques included discounting estimated bond-specific cash flows using assumptions about cash flows associated with loans underlying each of the bonds. In estimating those cash flows, the Company used conservative assumptions as to future delinquency, default and loss rates in order to mitigate exposure that might be attributable to the risk that actual future credit losses could exceed assumed credit losses. Differences between internal model valuations and external pricing indications were generally considered to be reflective of the lack of liquidity in the market for privately issued mortgage-backed securities. To determine the most representative fair value for each of the 144 bonds under current market conditions, the Company computed values based on judgmentally applied weightings of the internal model valuations and the indications obtained from the average of the two independent pricing sources. Weightings applied to internal model valuations were generally dependent on bond structure and collateral type, with prices for bonds in non-senior tranches generally receiving lower weightings on the internal model results and greater weightings of the valuation data provided by the independent pricing sources. As a result, certain valuations of privately issued residential mortgage-backed securities were determined by reference to independent pricing sources without adjustment. The average weight placed on internal model valuations was 37%, compared with a 63% weighting on valuations provided by the independent sources. Generally, the range of weights placed on internal valuations was between 0% and 40%. Further information concerning the Company’s valuations of privately issued mortgage-backed securities can be found in note 12 of Notes to Financial Statements.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2010 the Company recognized $22 million (pre-tax) of other-than-temporary impairment losses related to AIB ADSs with an amortized cost basis (before impairment charge) of $13 million, privately issued residential mortgage-backed securities with an amortized cost basis (before impairment charge) of $152 million and securities backed by trust preferred securities issued by financial institutions with an amortized cost basis (before impairment charge) of $5 million. In assessing impairment losses for debt securities, the Company performed internal modeling to estimate bond-specific cash flows, which considered the placement of the bond in the overall securitization structure and the remaining levels of subordination. For privately issued residential mortgage-backed securities, the model utilized assumptions about the underlying performance of the mortgage loan collateral considering recent collateral performance and future assumptions regarding default and loss severity. At June 30, 2010, projected model default percentages on the underlying mortgage loan collateral ranged from 2% to 41% and loss severities ranged from 10% to 74%. For bonds in which the Company has recognized an other-than-temporary impairment charge, the weighted-average percentage of default collateral was 24% and the weighted-average loss severity was 50%. For bonds without other-than-temporary impairment losses, the weighted-average default percentage and loss severity were 11% and 37%, respectively. Underlying mortgage loan collateral cash flows, after considering the impact of estimated credit losses, were distributed by the model to the various securities within the securitization structure to determine the timing and extent of losses at the bond-level, if any. As a

- 83 -

result of the procedures, the Company recognized pre-tax other-than-temporary impairment losses of $8 million on privately issued mortgage-backed securities during the quarter ended June 30, 2010. Despite rising levels of delinquencies and losses in the underlying residential mortgage loan collateral, given credit enhancements resulting from the structures of individual bonds, the Company has concluded that as of June 30, 2010 its remaining privately issued mortgage-backed securities were not other-than-temporarily impaired. Nevertheless, given recent market conditions, it is possible that adverse changes in repayment performance and fair value could occur in the remainder of 2010 and later years that could impact the Company’s conclusions. Management has modeled cash flows from privately issued mortgage-backed securities under various scenarios and has concluded that even if home price depreciation and current delinquency trends persist for an extended period of time, the Company’s principal losses on its privately issued mortgage-backed securities would be substantially less than their current fair valuation losses.

The AIB ADSs were obtained in the 2003 acquisition of Allfirst and are held to satisfy options to purchase such shares granted by Allfirst to certain employees. Factors contributing to the $12 million other-than-temporary impairment charge in the recent quarter related to the AIB ADSs included mounting credit and other losses incurred by AIB, the issuance of AIB common stock in lieu of dividend payments on certain preferred stock issuances held by the Irish government resulting in significant dilution of AIB common shareholders, and recent public announcements by Irish government officials suggesting that increased government support, which could further dilute AIB common shareholders, may be necessary.

At June 30, 2010, the Company also had net pre-tax unrealized losses of $9 million on $402 million of trust preferred securities issued by financial institutions, securities backed by trust preferred securities issued by financial institutions and other entities, and other debt securities (including $19 million of unrealized gains on $118 million of securities using a Level 3 valuation and $27 million of net unrealized losses on $284 million of securities classified as Level 2 valuations). Pre-tax net unrealized losses of $29 million existed on $384 million of such securities at December 31, 2009. After evaluating the expected repayment performance of financial institutions where trust preferred securities were held directly by the Company or were within the CDOs backed by trust preferred securities obtained in acquisitions, the Company recognized pre-tax other-than-temporary impairment losses of $2 million related to those securities during the quarter ended June 30, 2010.

The Company also holds municipal bonds, mortgage-backed securities guaranteed by government agencies and certain collateralized mortgage obligations securitized by Bayview Financial Holdings, L.P. (together with its affiliates, “Bayview Financial”), a privately-held specialty mortgage finance company and the majority investor of BLG, in its held-to-maturity investment securities portfolio. The Company purchased certain private placement CMOs during the third quarter of 2008 that had been securitized by Bayview Financial. Given the Company’s relationship with Bayview Financial, at that time the Company reconsidered its intention to hold other CMOs securitized by Bayview Financial with a cost basis of $385 million and a fair value of $298 million and transferred such securities from its available-for-sale investment securities portfolio to its held-to-maturity investment securities portfolio. As a result, at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company had in its held-to-maturity portfolio CMOs securitized by Bayview Financial with an amortized cost basis of $333 million and $352 million, respectively, (including the effect of $63 million and $68 million, respectively, of unamortized fair value adjustment (pre-tax) residing in accumulated other comprehensive income from the time of transfer) and a fair value of $197 million and $201 million, respectively. Given the credit enhancements within each of the individual bond structures, the Company has

- 84 -

determined that it expects to fully collect its contractual principal and interest payments on the private CMOs securitized by Bayview Financial and therefore believes such securities were not other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2010.

As of June 30, 2010, based on a review of each of the remaining securities in the investment securities portfolio, the Company concluded that the declines in the values of those securities were temporary and that any additional other-than-temporary impairment charges were not appropriate at June 30, 2010. As of that date, the Company did not intend to sell nor is it anticipated that it would be required to sell any of its impaired securities, that is where fair value is less than the cost basis of the security. The Company intends to closely monitor the performance of the privately issued mortgage-backed securities and other securities to assess if changes in their underlying credit performance or other events cause the cost basis of those securities to become other-than-temporarily impaired. However, because the unrealized losses on available-for-sale investment securities have generally already been reflected in the financial statement values for investment securities and stockholders’ equity, any recognition of an other-than-temporary decline in value of those investment securities would not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition. Any other-than-temporary impairment charge related to held-to-maturity securities would result in reductions in the financial statement values for investment securities and stockholders’ equity. Additional information concerning fair value measurements and the Company’s approach to the classification of such measurements is included in note 12 of Notes to Financial Statements.

Adjustments to reflect the funded status of defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans, net of applicable tax effect, reduced accumulated other comprehensive income by $115 million or $.96 per common share, at June 30, 2010, $174 million, or $1.47 per common share, at June 30, 2009 and $117 million or $.99 per common share, at December 31, 2009. The decrease in such adjustment at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 as compared with June 30, 2009 was predominantly the result of actual investment performance of assets held by the Company’s qualified pension plan being significantly better than that assumed for actuarial purposes. During the second quarter of 2009, the Company contributed 900,000 shares of M&T common stock having a then fair value of $44 million to the Company’s qualified defined benefit pension plan. Those shares were issued from previously held treasury stock.

Cash dividends paid on M&T’s common stock totaled approximately $84 million in each of the two most recent quarters, compared with $82 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2009, and represented a quarterly dividend payment of $.70 per common share in each of those three quarters. Common stock dividends during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were $167 million and $160 million, respectively. A cash dividend of $7.5 million, or $12.50 per share, was paid in each of the second quarters of 2010 and 2009 and in the initial 2010 quarter to the U.S. Treasury on M&T’s Series A Preferred Stock, issued on December 23, 2008. Similar dividends paid during the first half of 2010 were $15 million, compared with $12 million in the corresponding 2009 period. Cash dividends of $663 thousand and $2 million ($25.00 per share and $12.50 per share) were paid on M&T’s Series B and Series C Preferred Stock, respectively, during each of the first two quarters of 2010. Those series of preferred stock were created in connection with the Provident transaction. No similar dividends were paid during 2009’s second quarter.

The Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock during 2009 or the first half of 2010.

Federal regulators generally require banking institutions to maintain “Tier 1 capital” and “total capital” ratios of at least 4% and 8%, respectively, of risk-adjusted total assets. In addition to the risk-based

- 85 -

measures, Federal bank regulators have also implemented a minimum “Tier 1 leverage” ratio guideline of 3% of the quarterly average of total assets. As of June 30, 2010, Tier 1 capital included trust preferred securities of $1.1 billion as described in note 5 of Notes to Financial Statements and total capital further included subordinated capital notes of $1.5 billion.

The regulatory capital ratios of the Company, M&T Bank and M&T Bank, N.A., as of June 30, 2010 are presented in the accompanying table.

Segment Information

As required by GAAP, the Company’s reportable segments have been determined based upon its internal profitability reporting system, which is organized by strategic business unit. Financial information about the Company’s segments is presented in note 14 of Notes to Financial Statements.

Net income earned by the Business Banking segment totaled $27 million in the second quarter of 2010, down 14% from $31 million earned in the three months ended June 30, 2009, but 5% higher than $25 million in 2010’s first quarter. Contributing to the recent quarter’s unfavorable performance as compared with the second quarter of 2009 were a $7 million rise in the provision for credit losses, due to higher net charge-offs, and a decline in net interest income of $3 million. The lower net interest income resulted from an 83 basis point narrowing of the net interest margin on deposits offset, in part, by the impact of a $581 million increase in average deposit balances. Those unfavorable factors were partially offset by a $3 million decline in FDIC assessments and a $2 million increase in fees earned for providing deposit account services. The improvement in net income as compared with the immediately preceding quarter was predominantly due to a $3 million decline in the provision for credit losses, due to lower net charge-offs. For the first six months of 2010, the Business Banking segment’s net income declined to $52 million from $61 million in the year-earlier period. That decline was due to an $18 million increase in the provision for credit losses, resulting from higher net charge-offs of loans, offset, in part, by $3 million improvements in each of net interest income and fees earned for providing deposit account services. The increase in net interest income was the result of increases in average deposit and average loan balances of $728 million and $199 million, respectively, due in part to the impact of the Provident acquisition, partially offset by a 79 basis point narrowing of the net interest margin on deposits.

The Commercial Banking segment recorded net income of $82 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2010, 17% higher than $70 million earned in the year-earlier quarter and 6% above 2010’s first quarter net income of $77 million. As compared with the second quarter of 2009, a $12 million decrease in the provision for credit losses, mainly the result of lower net charge-offs, and an $11 million increase in net interest income, due predominately to a 29 basis point widening of the net interest margin on loans, were partially offset by a $3 million reduction in fees for providing corporate advisory services. Contributing to the recent quarter’s rise in net income as compared

- 86 -

with the first quarter of 2010 was an $8 million decline in the provision for credit losses, due to lower net charge-offs, and a $6 million rise in net interest income, the result of an 11 basis point expansion of the net interest margin on loans. Partially offsetting those favorable factors was a $3 million decrease in fees earned for providing loan syndication services. Net income for the Commercial Banking segment aggregated $158 million during the first half of 2010, a 25% increase from the $127 million earned in the six months ended June 30, 2009. Factors contributing to that increase were a $31 million improvement in net interest income, reflecting a $2.7 billion increase in average deposit balances, and a $22 million decrease in the provision for credit losses, partly due to lower net charge-offs.

The Commercial Real Estate segment contributed net income of $44 million in each of the two most recent quarters, compared with $23 million in the second quarter of 2009. The favorable performance in 2010’s second quarter as compared with the year-earlier quarter was the result of a decline in the provision for credit losses of $28 million, primarily due to lower net charge-offs, and a $10 million rise in net interest income, the result of a 21 basis point widening of the net interest margin on loans and a $704 million increase in average loan balances, which predominantly resulted from the acquisition of Provident. Partially offsetting those factors were higher foreclosure-related costs of $3 million and other noninterest expenses of $2 million. As compared with 2010’s first quarter, growth in net interest income of $3 million, the result of a 7 basis point widening of the net interest margin on loans, and a $2 million decrease in the provision for credit losses, were largely offset by a $2 million decline in mortgage banking revenues and higher foreclosure-related costs of $2 million. Net contribution for the Commercial Real Estate segment increased to $87 million for the first six months of 2010, up 32% from $66 million in the similar 2009 period. Contributing to that improvement were higher net interest income of $27 million, resulting from the combination of a 22 basis point widening of the net interest margin on loans and higher average loan balances of $1.1 billion (predominantly the result of the Provident acquisition), and a $13 million decrease in the provision for credit losses, mainly due to lower net charge-offs of loans, partially offset by $3 million increases in each of personnel and foreclosure-related costs.

The Discretionary Portfolio segment incurred net losses of $4 million, $3 million and $16 million in the quarters ended June 30, 2010, June 30, 2009, and March 31, 2010, respectively. Included in the results of each of those quarters were pre-tax OTTI charges of $10 million, $25 million and $27 million, respectively. The impairment charges recorded in this segment relate predominantly to privately issued CMOs held in the Company’s available-for-sale investment securities portfolio. Excluding the impairment losses, the decline in the recent quarter’s performance as compared with the year-earlier period resulted from a $29 million decrease in net interest income, resulting from a 43 basis point narrowing of this segment’s net interest margin, partially offset by a decrease in the provision for credit losses of $8 million, due to reduced net charge-offs. On that same basis, the recent quarter’s improved performance as compared with the initial 2010 quarter resulted from higher income from bank owned life insurance. For the first six months of 2010, the Discretionary Portfolio incurred a net loss of $20 million, compared with an $8 million net loss in 2009’s first half. Excluding the impact of impairment charges aggregating $37 million and $57 million in those respective periods, net income in 2010 was $2 million, compared with $25 million in 2009. That decline in performance reflects a $57 million decrease in net interest income, due to a 42 basis point narrowing of the net interest margin, that was partly offset by a lower provision for credit losses of $13 million, primarily due to decreased net charge-offs.

- 87 -

The Residential Mortgage Banking segment recorded net losses of $467 thousand and $11 million in the quarters ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, compared with net income of $595 thousand in the first quarter of 2010. As compared with the year-earlier quarter, factors contributing to the recent quarter’s improved results included a $21 million decline in foreclosure-related costs (the result of updated appraised values on certain previously foreclosed-upon residential real estate development projects in the 2009’s second quarter), a lower provision for credit losses of $10 million, due to lower net charge-offs of loans to builders and developers of residential real estate, and a decrease in personnel expenses of $5 million. Partially offsetting those positive factors were the impact of a $9 million partial reversal of the capitalized mortgage servicing rights valuation allowance in the second quarter of 2009 (a $2 million addition to such allowance was recorded in the recent quarter) and lower revenues from residential mortgage origination and sales activities of $5 million. When comparing the recent quarter’s performance with the first 2010 quarter, a $4 million rise in the provision for credit losses, resulting from higher net charge-offs, was partially offset by a $2 million increase in revenues from residential mortgage origination and sales activities. Net income of this segment for the first half of 2010 was $128 thousand, compared with a net loss of $5 million for the corresponding 2009 period. The main factors contributing to the improvement were a $21 million decline in the provision for credit losses, due to lower net charge-offs of loans to builders and developers of residential real estate, and a $20 million decrease in foreclosure-related expenses offset, in part, by reduced revenues relating to residential mortgage origination and sales activities of $18 million and a $13 million partial reversal of the capitalized mortgage servicing rights valuation allowance in the 2009 period, compared with a $2 million addition recorded during the 2010 period.

Net contribution from the Retail Banking segment totaled $67 million in 2010’s second quarter, 24% above $54 million earned in the second quarter of 2009 and 14% higher than $59 million in the initial quarter of 2010. Factors contributing to the higher net income as compared with 2009’s second quarter included a $15 million increase in fees earned for providing deposit account services, due in part to the Provident acquisition, a decline of $15 million in FDIC assessments, and a $5 million reduction in the provision for credit losses, primarily due to lower net charge-offs of loans. Partially offsetting those factors was a $13 million decrease in net interest income, mainly the result of a 34 basis point narrowing of the net interest margin on deposits. The improved net income as compared with the three months ended March 31, 2010 was driven by an $11 million increase in fees earned for providing deposit account services. Through June 30, net income for this segment aggregated $126 million in 2010, up 18% from $107 million in 2009. The improvement in net income was due largely to the following factors: a $32 million rise in fees earned for providing deposit account services, largely the result of the Provident acquisition; reduced FDIC assessments of $12 million; and a lower provision for credit losses of $10 million, mostly the result of a decline in net charge-offs. Offsetting those factors were a $9 million increase in each of personnel and net occupancy expenses, predominantly due to the acquired operations of Provident, and an $8 million decline in net interest income. The lower net interest income resulted from a 30 basis point narrowing of the net interest margin on deposits, offset by an 11 basis point widening of the net interest margin on loans and increases in average deposit and loan balances of $791 million and $686 million, respectively, largely due to the Provident acquisition.

The “All Other” category reflects other activities of the Company that are not directly attributable to the reported segments. Reflected in this category are the amortization of core deposit and other intangible assets resulting from the acquisitions of financial institutions, M&T’s equity in the earnings (loss) of BLG, merger-related gains and expenses resulting from acquisitions of financial institutions and the net impact of the Company’s

- 88 -

allocation methodologies for internal transfers for funding charges and credits associated with the earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities of the Company’s reportable segments and the provision for credit losses. The various components of the “All Other” category resulted in net losses of $26 million in the recently completed quarter, $113 million in the year-earlier quarter and $38 million in the first quarter of 2010. As compared with 2009’s second quarter, the lower net loss in the second quarter of 2010 was mainly due to the favorable impact from the Company’s allocation methodologies for internal transfers for funding charges and credits associated with the earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities of the Company’s reportable segments and the provision for credit losses, and merger-related costs incurred in 2009’s second quarter associated with M&T’s acquisition of Provident, which totaled $66 million (there were no merger-related costs in the recent quarter). Partly offsetting those favorable factors was the recent quarter $12 million OTTI charge related to AIB ADSs which were obtained in M&T’s acquisition of Allfirst in 2003. The recent quarter’s lower net loss as compared with the prior quarter was due to the impact of the Company’s allocation methodologies for internal transfers for funding charges and credits associated with the earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities of the Company’s reportable segments and the provision for credit losses, and a $17 million decline in personnel costs, reflecting decreased costs for stock-based compensation, payroll-related taxes and contributions to retirement savings plan benefits associated with annual incentive compensation payments made in the first quarter of each year, partially offset by the recent quarter’s OTTI charge. For the first six months of 2010, the “All Other” category recorded a net loss of $64 million, compared with a net loss of $232 million in the corresponding 2009 period. The lower net loss experienced in 2010 reflects the favorable impact from the Company’s allocation methodologies for internal transfers for funding charges and credits associated with the earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities of the Company’s reportable segments and the provision for credit losses, as well as $69 million of merger-related expenses associated with M&T’s acquisition of Provident. There were no merger-related expenses in 2010.

Recent Accounting Developments

In June 2009, the FASB amended accounting guidance relating to the consolidation of variable interest entities to eliminate the quantitative approach previously required for determining the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. The amended guidance instead requires a reporting entity to qualitatively assess the determination of the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity based on whether the reporting entity has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the variable interest entity’s economic performance and has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the variable interest entity that could potentially be significant to the variable interest entity. The amended guidance requires ongoing reassessments of whether the reporting entity is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. The amended guidance became effective as of January 1, 2010.

In June 2009, the FASB also issued amended accounting guidance relating to accounting for transfers of financial assets to eliminate the exceptions for qualifying special-purpose entities from the consolidation guidance and the exception that permitted sale accounting for certain mortgage securitizations when a transferor has not surrendered control over the transferred assets. The amended guidance became effective as of January 1, 2010. The recognition and measurement provisions of the amended guidance were applied to transfers that occur on or after the effective date. Additionally, beginning January 1, 2010, the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity is no longer relevant for accounting purposes. Therefore, formerly qualifying special-purpose entities must now be evaluated for consolidation in accordance

- 89 -

with applicable consolidation guidance, including the new accounting guidance relating to the consolidation of variable interest entities discussed in the previous paragraph.

Effective January 1, 2010, the Company included in its consolidated financial statements one-to-four family residential mortgage loans that were included in two separate non-recourse securitization transactions using qualified special trusts. The effect of that consolidation was to increase loans receivable by $424 million, decrease the amortized cost of available-for-sale investment securities by $360 million (fair value of $355 million), and increase borrowings by $65 million as of January 1, 2010. Information concerning these securitization transactions is included in note 11 of Notes to Financial Statements.

In January 2010, the FASB amended fair value measurement and disclosure guidance to require disclosure of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and the reasons for the transfers and to require separate presentation of information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. The amended guidance also clarifies existing requirements that (i) fair value measurement disclosures should be disaggregated for each class of asset and liability and (ii) disclosures about valuation techniques and inputs for both recurring and nonrecurring Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements should be provided. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements, which are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 and for interim periods within those years. The adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In March 2010, the FASB amended accounting guidance relating to a scope exception for derivative accounting to clarify that only embedded credit derivative features related to the transfer of credit risk in the form of subordination of one financial instrument to another should not be analyzed for potential bifurcation from the host contract and separate accounting as a derivative. Embedded credit derivative features in a form other than subordination do not qualify for the scope exception, even if their effects are allocated according to subordination provisions. The guidance is effective at the beginning of the first quarter beginning after June 15, 2010. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this guidance will have a significant impact on the reporting of its financial position or results of its operations.

In April 2010, the FASB issued amended accounting guidance relating to the effect of a loan modification when the loan is part of a pool that is accounted for as a single asset under the guidance for loans and debt securities acquired with deteriorated credit quality. The amended guidance requires modifications of loans that are accounted for within a pool to remain in the pool even if the modification would be considered a troubled debt restructuring. Companies are required to continue to review the pool of assets in which the modified loan is included to determine whether the pool is impaired if the expected cash flows for the pool change. The guidance is effective for prospective modifications of loans accounted for within pools occurring in the first interim or annual period ending on or after July 15, 2010. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this guidance will have a significant impact on the reporting of its financial position or results of its operations.

In July 2010, the FASB issued amended disclosure guidance relating to credit risk inherent in an entity’s portfolio of financing receivables and the related allowance for credit losses. The amended disclosures will be

- 90 -

required at two disaggregated levels. One level of disaggregation is the portfolio segment which represents the level at which an entity develops and documents a systematic method for determining its allowance for credit losses. The second level of disaggregation is the class of financing receivables which generally represents a disaggregation of a portfolio segment. The amended disclosures include a rollforward of the allowance for credit losses by portfolio segment with the ending balance further disaggregated on the basis of the impairment method, the related recorded investment in each portfolio segment, the nonaccrual status of financing receivables by class, the impaired financing receivables by class, the credit quality indicators of financing receivables at the end of the reporting period by class, the aging of past due financing receivables at the end of the reporting period by class, the nature and extent of troubled debt restructurings that occurred during the period by class and their effect on the allowance for credit losses, the nature and extent of financing receivables modified as troubled debt restructurings within the previous twelve months that defaulted during the reporting period by class and their effect on the allowance for credit losses, and the significant purchases and sales of financing receivables during the reporting period by portfolio segment. The disclosures as of the end of a reporting period are effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010 and the disclosures about activity that occurs during a reporting period are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010. Upon initial application, the disclosures are not required for earlier periods that are presented for comparative purposes. The Company intends to comply with the disclosure requirements when they become effective.

Forward-Looking Statements

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and other sections of this quarterly report contain forward-looking statements that are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the Company’s business, management’s beliefs and assumptions made by management. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions (“Future Factors”) which are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking statements.

Future Factors include changes in interest rates, spreads on earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and interest rate sensitivity; prepayment speeds, loan originations, credit losses and market values on loans, collateral securing loans and other assets; sources of liquidity; common shares outstanding; common stock price volatility; fair value of and number of stock-based compensation awards to be issued in future periods; legislation affecting the financial services industry as a whole, and M&T and its subsidiaries individually or collectively, including tax legislation; regulatory supervision and oversight, including monetary policy and capital requirements; changes in accounting policies or procedures as may be required by the FASB or other regulatory agencies; increasing price and product/service competition by competitors, including new entrants; rapid technological developments and changes; the ability to continue to introduce competitive new products and services on a timely, cost-effective basis; the mix of products/services; containing costs and expenses; governmental and public policy changes; protection and validity of intellectual property rights; reliance on large customers; technological, implementation and cost/financial risks in large, multi-year contracts; the outcome of pending and future litigation and governmental proceedings, including tax-related examinations and other matters; continued availability of financing; financial resources in the amounts, at the times and on the terms required to

- 91 -

support M&T and its subsidiaries’ future businesses; and material differences in the actual financial results of merger, acquisition and investment activities compared with M&T’s initial expectations, including the full realization of anticipated cost savings and revenue enhancements.

These are representative of the Future Factors that could affect the outcome of the forward-looking statements. In addition, such statements could be affected by general industry and market conditions and growth rates, general economic and political conditions, either nationally or in the states in which M&T and its subsidiaries do business, including interest rate and currency exchange rate fluctuations, changes and trends in the securities markets, and other Future Factors.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Incorporated by reference to the discussion contained under the caption “Taxable-equivalent Net Interest Income” in Part I, Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon their evaluation of the effectiveness of M&T’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)), Robert G. Wilmers, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, and René F. Jones, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that M&T’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2010.

(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. M&T regularly assesses the adequacy of its internal control over financial reporting and enhances its controls in response to internal control assessments and internal and external audit and regulatory recommendations. No changes in internal control over financial reporting have been identified in connection with the evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures during the quarter ended June 30, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, M&T’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

M&T and its subsidiaries are subject in the normal course of business to various pending and threatened legal proceedings in which claims for monetary damages are asserted. Management, after consultation with legal counsel, does not anticipate that the aggregate ultimate liability arising out of litigation pending against M&T or its subsidiaries will be material to M&T’s consolidated financial position, but at the present time is not in a position to determine whether such litigation will have a material adverse effect on M&T’s consolidated results of operations in any future reporting period.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

In addition to the risk factors relating to M&T that were disclosed in response to Item 1A. to Part I of Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, the following risk factor could significantly impact M&T’s operations and its financial results:

	•		Legislative actions taken now or in the future may have a significant adverse effect on M&T’s operations. A number of regulatory initiatives directed at the financial services industry have been proposed in recent months. One of those initiatives, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”), was signed into law by President Obama on July 21, 2010. The Dodd-Frank Act represents a comprehensive overhaul of the financial services industry within the United States and will require the newly created Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection and other federal agencies to implement many new rules. At this time, it is difficult to predict the extent to which the Dodd-Frank Act or the forthcoming rules and regulations will impact M&T’s business. It is expected, however, that at a minimum they will result in increased costs and therefore may adversely impact M&T’s business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.

			Another such initiative relates to the restricted ability of financial institutions to impose overdraft charges on certain customer transactions. Beginning on July 1, 2010 for new customers and August 15, 2010 for existing customers, federal rules will prohibit a financial institution from assessing a fee to complete an ATM withdrawal or one-time debit card transaction which will cause an overdraft unless the customer consents in advance. It is expected that such rules will

result in a decline in service charges on deposit accounts as discussed in more detail under the caption “Other Income” in Part I, Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”
