ITEM 3.03. MATERIAL MODIFICATION TO RIGHTS OF SECURITY HOLDERS.

On July 29, 2019, M&T Bank Corporation (“M&T”) filed a certificate of amendment (the “Certificate of Amendment”) with the New York State Department of State establishing the rights, preferences, privileges, qualifications, restrictions and limitations of a new series of its preferred stock designated as the Perpetual 5.0% Fixed-Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series G, par value $1.00 per share (the “Series G Preferred Stock”). The Certificate of Amendment was filed in connection with an Underwriting Agreement, dated July 23, 2019 (the “Underwriting Agreement”), with Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, RBC Capital Markets, LLC and UBS Securities LLC as representatives of the several underwriters named in Schedule A thereto (the “Underwriters”), under which M&T agreed to sell to the Underwriters 400,000 depositary shares (the “Depositary Shares”) each representing a 1/10th interest in a share of the Series G Preferred Stock.

The Series G Preferred Stock ranks senior to the common stock of M&T, equally with M&T’s outstanding Series A, C, E and F preferred stock, and at least equally with each other series of preferred stock M&T may issue (except for any senior capital stock that may be issued with the requisite consent of the holders of the Series G Preferred Stock and all parity stock), with respect to payments of dividends and distributions of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up.

Under the terms of the Series G Preferred Stock, the ability of M&T to pay dividends on, make distributions with respect to, or to redeem, purchase or acquire, or make a liquidation payment on its common stock or any preferred stock ranking on a parity with or junior to the Series G Preferred Stock, is subject to restrictions in the event that M&T does not declare dividends on the Series G Preferred Stock for the most recently completed dividend period, or, in the case of a liquidation payment, does not pay to holders of the Series G Preferred Stock the stated amount of $10,000 per share, plus any declared and unpaid dividends, without accumulation of any undeclared dividends.

The terms of the Series G Preferred Stock are more fully described in the Certificate of Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. This summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Certificate of Amendment.

ITEM 5.03. AMENDMENTS TO ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION OR BYLAWS; CHANGE IN FISCAL YEAR.

On July 29, 2019, M&T filed with the New York State Department of State the Certificate of Amendment for the purpose of fixing the designations, preferences, limitations and relative rights of the Series G Preferred Stock. The Certificate of Amendment became effective immediately upon filing, and the public offering of the Depositary Shares representing an interest in the Series G Preferred Stock was completed on July 30, 2019 (as described below).

Holders of the Series G Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by M&T’s board of directors or any duly authorized committee of M&T’s board, out of assets legally available for payment, noncumulative cash dividends based on the stated amount of $10,000 per share of Series G Preferred Stock (equivalent to $1,000 per Depositary Share). If declared by M&T’s board of directors or any duly authorized committee of M&T’s board, M&T will pay dividends on the Series G Preferred Stock through the redemption date of the Series G Preferred Stock, if any, (i) during the period from the issue date of the Series G Preferred Stock to, but excluding, August 1, 2024 (the “Initial Fixed Rate Period”), semi-annually, in arrears, on February 1 and August 1 of each year, beginning on February 1, 2020, and (ii) during the period from August 1, 2024 through the redemption date of the Series G Preferred Stock, if any (the “Dividend Reset Period”), semi-annually, in arrears, on February 1 and August 1 of each year, beginning on August 1, 2024 (each such day on which dividends are payable, a “dividend payment date”). The period from and including any dividend payment date to but excluding the next dividend payment date is referred to as a “dividend period.”

Dividends on the Series G Preferred Stock will accrue from the original issue date at a rate equal to (i) 5.000% per annum for each dividend period during the Initial Fixed Rate Period and (ii) the five-year U.S. Treasury Rate as of the most recent dividend determination date (as described in the Certificate of Amendment) plus a spread of 3.174% per annum for each dividend period during the Dividend Reset Period.

Upon the payment of any dividends on the Series G Preferred Stock, holders of Depositary Shares will receive a related proportionate payment. Dividends on shares of the Series G Preferred Stock will not be cumulative. Dividends on the Series G Preferred Stock will not be declared, paid or set aside for payment to the extent such act would cause M&T to fail to comply with applicable laws and regulations, including applicable capital adequacy guidelines.

The Series G Preferred Stock is perpetual and has no maturity date. M&T may redeem the Series G Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, from time to time, on any dividend payment date on or after August 1, 2024, or, in whole but not in part, at any time within 90 days following a regulatory capital treatment event (subject to limitations described in the Certificate of Amendment), in each case at a redemption price equal to $10,000 per share (equivalent to $1,000 per Depositary Share), together with an amount equal to any dividends that have been declared but not paid prior to the redemption date.

The Series G Preferred Stock has voting rights only with respect to amending M&T’s certificate of incorporation to authorize or increase stock ranking senior to the Series G Preferred Stock, certain changes in terms of the Series G Preferred Stock, certain dividend non-payments and as otherwise required by applicable law. Holders of Depositary Shares must act through Wilmington Trust, National Association, the depositary for the Depositary Shares, to exercise any voting rights of the Series G Preferred Stock.

The terms of the Series G Preferred Stock are more fully described in the Certificate of Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. This summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Certificate of Amendment.

ITEM 8.01. OTHER EVENTS.

On July 30, 2019, M&T completed the public offering pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement of 400,000 Depositary Shares each representing a 1/10th interest in a share of the Series G Preferred Stock. The Series G Preferred Stock has been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, by a registration statement on Form S-3ASR (File No. 333-227644).

Ladies and Gentlemen:

M&T Bank Corporation, a New York corporation (the “Company”), confirms its agreement with Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, RBC Capital Markets, LLC and UBS Securities LLC, as representatives (in such capacity, the “Representatives”) of the underwriters named in Schedule A hereto (collectively, the “Underwriters”, which term shall also include any underwriter substituted as hereinafter provided in Section 10 hereof), with respect to the sale by the Company and the purchase by the Underwriters, acting severally and not jointly, of the respective numbers of depositary shares (“Depositary Shares”), each representing a 1/10^th interest in a share of the Company’s Perpetual Fixed-Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series G, par value $1.00 and liquidation preference $10,000 per share (the “Preferred Stock”). The aforesaid 400,000 Depositary Shares to be purchased by the Underwriters are referred to herein as the “Securities.” The shares of Preferred Stock represented by the Securities are to be deposited by the Company against delivery of depositary receipts evidencing the Securities (the “Depositary Receipts”), that are to be issued by Wilmington Trust, National

Association, acting as depositary (the “Depositary”), under a Deposit Agreement, to be dated on or about July 30, 2019 (the “Deposit Agreement”), among the Company, the Depositary and the holders from time to time of the Depositary Receipts issued thereunder. To the extent there are no additional parties listed on Schedule A other than the Representatives, the term Representatives as used herein shall mean the Underwriters, and the terms shall be construed as equivalents. The terms Representatives and Underwriters shall mean either the singular or plural as the context requires.

The Company understands that the Underwriters propose to make a public offering of the Securities as soon as the Representatives deem advisable after this Agreement has been executed and delivered.

The Company has prepared and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) an automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3ASR (File No. 333-227644) covering the offer and sale of certain securities of the Company, including the Securities, from time to time under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “1933 Act Regulations”). Such registration statement has become effective under the 1933 Act. Such registration statement, as of any time, means such registration statement as amended by any post-effective amendments thereto at such time, including the exhibits and any schedules thereto at such time, the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein at such time pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the 1933 Act and the documents otherwise deemed to be a part thereof as of such time pursuant to Rule 430B of the 1933 Act Regulations (“Rule 430B”), and is referred to herein as the “Registration Statement;” provided, however, that the “Registration Statement” without reference to a time means such registration statement as amended by any post-effective amendments thereto as of the time of the first contract of sale for the Securities, which time shall be considered the “new effective date” of the Registration Statement with respect to the Securities within the meaning of Rule 430B(f)(2), including the exhibits and schedules thereto as of such time, the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein at such time pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the 1933 Act and the documents otherwise deemed to be a part thereof as of such time pursuant to the Rule 430B. Each preliminary prospectus supplement and the base prospectus used in connection with the offering of the Securities, including the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the 1933 Act immediately prior to the Applicable Time (as defined below), are collectively referred to herein as a “preliminary prospectus.” Promptly after execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company will prepare and file a final prospectus supplement relating to the Securities in accordance with the provisions of Rule 424(b) of the 1933 Act Regulations (“Rule 424(b)”). The final prospectus supplement and the base prospectus, in the form first furnished to the Underwriters for use in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities, including the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the 1933 Act immediately prior to the Applicable Time, are collectively referred to herein as the “Prospectus.” For purposes of this Agreement, all references to the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto shall be deemed to include the copy filed with the Commission pursuant to its Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system (or any successor system) (“EDGAR”).

“Issuer General Use Free Writing Prospectus” means any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus that is intended for general distribution to investors, as evidenced by its being specified in Schedule B hereto.

Each preliminary prospectus and the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, at the time each was filed with the Commission, complied in all material respects with the requirements of the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations, and are identical to the electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S-T.

The documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, at the time the Registration Statement became effective or when such incorporated documents were filed with the Commission, as the case may be, when read together with the other information in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, as the case may be, did not, does not and will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

(d) Well-Known Seasoned Issuer. (A) At the time of filing the Registration Statement, (B) at the time of the most recent amendment thereto for the purposes of complying with Section 10(a)(3) of the 1933 Act (whether such amendment was by post-effective amendment, incorporated report filed pursuant to Sections 13 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act or form of prospectus), (C) at the time the Company or any person acting on its behalf (within the meaning, for this clause only, of Rule 163(c) of the 1933 Act Regulations) made any offer relating to the Securities in reliance on the exemption in Rule 163, and (D) at the Applicable Time, the Company was or is (as the case may be) a “well-known seasoned issuer” as defined in Rule 405 of the 1933 Act Regulations.

(e) Company Not Ineligible Issuer. (A) At the earliest time after the filing of the Registration Statement that the Company or another offering participant made a bona fide offer (within the meaning of Rule 164(h)(2) of the 1933 Act Regulations) of the Securities, (B) as of the date of this Agreement (with such date being used as the determination date for purposes of this clause (B)) and (C) at the Applicable Time, the Company was not and is not an “ineligible issuer” (as defined in Rule 405), without taking account of any determination by the Commission pursuant to Rule 405 that it is not necessary that the Company be considered an ineligible issuer.

(g) Financial Statements; Non-GAAP Financial Measures. The financial statements of the Company included in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, together with the related schedules and notes, present fairly the financial position of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries at the dates indicated and the statement of income, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries for the periods specified; said financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods involved. Any financial statements of businesses or properties acquired or proposed to be acquired, if any, included in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus present fairly the information set forth therein, have been prepared in conformity with GAAP applied on a consistent basis and otherwise have been prepared in accordance with the financial statement requirements of Rule 3-05 or Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X, as applicable.

Any pro forma financial statements and the related notes thereto included in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus present fairly the information shown therein, have been prepared in accordance with the Commission’s rules and guidelines with respect to pro forma financial statements and have been properly compiled on the bases described therein, and the assumptions used in the preparation thereof are reasonable and the adjustments used therein are appropriate to give effect to the transactions and circumstances referred to therein. Except as included therein, if any, no historical or pro forma financial statements or supporting schedules are required to be included in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus under the 1933 Act, the 1933 Act Regulations, the 1934 Act or the 1934 Act Regulations. All disclosures contained in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, if any, regarding “non-GAAP financial measures” (as such term is defined by the rules and regulations of the Commission) comply in all material respects with Regulation G under the 1934 Act and Item 10 of Regulation S-K under the 1933 Act (in each case as in effect when such disclosures were made), to the extent applicable.

(h) No Material Adverse Change. Except as described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, (A) there has been no material adverse change in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business affairs or business prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries considered as one enterprise, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business (a “Material Adverse Change”), (B) there have been no transactions entered into by the Company or any of its subsidiaries, other than those in the ordinary course of business, which are material with respect to the Company and its subsidiaries considered as one enterprise, and (C) except for regular dividends on the Company’s capital stock in amounts per share that are

6

consistent with past practice or as approved by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or the appropriate Federal Reserve Bank and repurchases of the Company’s common stock in accordance with its publicly disclosed Stock Repurchase Program (including additional repurchases authorized thereunder and publicly disclosed), there has been no dividend or distribution of any kind declared, paid or made by the Company on any class or series of its capital stock.

(i) Good Standing of the Company. The Company has been duly organized and is existing as a corporation under the laws of the State of New York and has all requisite power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties, to conduct its business as described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus and to enter into and perform its obligations under, and to consummate the transactions contemplated in, the Operative Documents. The Company is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required, whether by reason of the ownership or leasing of property or the conduct of business, except where the failure so to qualify or to be in good standing would not, singly or in the aggregate, result in a material adverse effect (A) in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business affairs or business prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries considered as one enterprise, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, or (B) on the ability of the Company to enter into and perform its obligations under, or consummate the transactions contemplated in, the Operative Documents (a “Material Adverse Effect”). The Company is duly registered as a bank holding company and a financial holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. The Company has furnished to the Representatives complete and correct copies of the Charter and By-Laws and all amendments thereto, and, except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, no change thereto is contemplated or has been authorized or approved by the Company or its stockholders.

(j) Good Standing of Subsidiaries. Each “significant subsidiary” of the Company (as such term is defined in Rule 1-02 of Regulation S-X) (each, a “Significant Subsidiary” and, collectively, the “Significant Subsidiaries”) has been duly organized and is validly existing and, if applicable, in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or other organization, has all requisite power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties, to conduct its business as described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus and is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required, whether by reason of the ownership or leasing of property or the conduct of business, except where the failure to so qualify or to be in good standing would not, singly or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect. Except as described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of or other equity interests in each Significant Subsidiary have been duly authorized and validly issued, are fully paid and non-assessable (subject, in the case of any Significant Subsidiary that is a New York banking corporation or national bank, to Section 114 of the New York Banking Law or 12 U.S.C. § 55, respectively) and are owned by the Company, directly or through subsidiaries, free and clear of any security interest, mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance, claim or equity. None of the outstanding shares of capital stock of or other equity interests in any Significant Subsidiary

7

were issued in violation of the preemptive or similar rights of any securityholder of such Significant Subsidiary or any other entity. The only subsidiaries of the Company are (A) the subsidiaries listed under the caption “Subsidiaries” contained in Part I, Item I of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 and (B) certain other subsidiaries which, considered in the aggregate as a single subsidiary, do not constitute a “significant subsidiary” within the meaning of Rule 1-02 of Regulation S-X. The deposit accounts of each of Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company and Wilmington Trust, National Association (each, a “Bank Subsidiary,” and, collectively, the “Bank Subsidiaries”) are insured up to the applicable limits by the Deposit Insurance Fund of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) to the fullest extent permitted by law and the rules and regulations of the FDIC, and no proceeding for the revocation or termination of such insurance is pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, contemplated.

to the Registration Statement declared effective by the Commission as soon as possible if the Company is not eligible to file an automatic shelf registration statement at such time, provided that the Company shall not file or use any such amendment or supplement to which the Representatives or counsel for the Underwriters shall reasonably object.

(c) Filing or Use of Amendments or Supplements. The Company has given the Representatives written notice of any filings made pursuant to the 1934 Act or 1934 Act Regulations within 48 hours prior to the Applicable Time and will give the Representatives and written notice of its intention to file or use any amendment to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement to the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, whether pursuant to the 1933 Act, the 1933 Act Regulations, the 1934 Act or the 1934 Act Regulations or otherwise, from the Applicable Time to the later of (i) the time when a prospectus relating to the Securities is no longer required by the 1933 Act (without giving effect to Rule 172) to be delivered in connection with sales of the Securities and (ii) the Closing Time, and will furnish the Representatives with copies of any such amendment or supplement a reasonable amount of time prior to such proposed filing or use, as the case may be, and will not file or use any such amendment or supplement to which the Representatives or counsel for the Underwriters shall reasonably object.

The signed copies of the Registration Statement and each amendment thereto furnished to the Underwriters will be identical to the electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S-T.

(e) Delivery of Prospectuses. The Company has delivered to each Underwriter, without charge, as many copies of each preliminary prospectus as such Underwriter reasonably requested, and the Company hereby consents to the use of such copies for purposes permitted by the 1933 Act.

The Prospectus and any amendments or supplements thereto furnished to the Underwriters will be identical to the electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S-T.

(f) Certificate of Incorporation. Prior to the Closing Time, the Company shall file the Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of New York, accompanied by all fees required to be paid therewith, and cause the Restated Certificate Amendment, as amended by the Certificate of Amendment, to become effective at or prior to the Closing Time.

19

(g) Blue Sky Qualifications. The Company will use its best efforts, in cooperation with the Underwriters, to qualify the Securities for offering and sale under the applicable securities laws of such states and non-U.S. jurisdictions as the Representatives may designate and to maintain such qualifications in effect so long as required to complete the distribution of the Securities; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to file any general consent to service of process or to qualify as a foreign corporation or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction in which it is not so qualified or to subject itself to taxation in respect of doing business in any jurisdiction in which it is not otherwise so subject.

(h) Earnings Statements. The Company will timely file such reports pursuant to the 1934 Act as are necessary in order to make generally available to its securityholders as soon as practicable an earnings statement for the purposes of, and to provide to the Underwriters the benefits contemplated by, the last paragraph of Section 11(a) of the 1933 Act.

(i) Restriction on Sale of Securities. During a period of 30 days from the date of this Agreement, the Company will not, without the prior written consent of the Representatives, (i) directly or indirectly, offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase or otherwise transfer or dispose of any shares of preferred stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for preferred stock or file any registration statement under the 1933 Act with respect to any of the foregoing or (ii) enter into any swap or any other agreement or any transaction that transfers, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, the economic consequence of ownership of preferred stock, whether any such swap or transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of preferred stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise.

(j) Reporting Requirements. The Company, during the period when a prospectus relating to the Securities is (or, but for the exception afforded by Rule 172, would be) required by the 1933 Act to be delivered in connection with sales of the Securities, will file all documents required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to the 1934 Act within the time periods required by, and each such document will meet the requirements of, the 1934 Act and 1934 Act Regulations.

(k) Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses. The Company agrees that, unless it obtains the prior written consent of the Representatives, and each of the Underwriters, severally and not jointly, agree with the Company that, unless it obtains the prior written consent of the Company, it will not make any offer relating to the Securities that would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or that would otherwise constitute a “free writing prospectus,” or a portion thereof, required to be filed by the Company with the Commission or retained by the Company under Rule 433; provided that the Representatives will be deemed to have consented to the Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses listed on Schedule C hereto and any “road show that is a written communication” within the meaning of Rule 433(d)(8)(i) that has been reviewed by the Representatives. The Company represents that it has treated or agrees that it will treat each such

20

free writing prospectus consented to, or deemed consented to, by the Representatives as an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and that it has complied and will comply with the applicable requirements of Rule 433 with respect thereto, including timely filing with the Commission where required, legending and record keeping. If at any time following issuance of an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus there occurred or occurs an event or condition as a result of which such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus conflicted or would conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus or included or would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or would omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances existing at that subsequent time, not misleading, the Company will promptly notify the Representatives in writing and will promptly amend or supplement, at its own expense, such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus to eliminate or correct such conflict, untrue statement or omission.

(l) DTC. The Company will cooperate with the Underwriters and use its reasonable best efforts to permit the Securities to be eligible for clearance, settlement and trading through the facilities of DTC.

SECTION 4. Payment of Expenses.

(b) Termination of Agreement. If this Agreement is terminated by the Representatives in accordance with the provisions of Section 5 or Section 9(a)(i) or (iii) hereof, the Company shall reimburse the Underwriters for all of their out-of-pocket expenses, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Underwriters.

SECTION 5. Conditions of Underwriters’ Obligations. The obligations of the several Underwriters hereunder are subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties contained herein or in certificates of any officer of the Company or any of its subsidiaries delivered pursuant to the provisions hereof, to the performance by the Company of its covenants and other obligations hereunder, and to the following further conditions:

22

securities laws of the United States, upon the opinions of counsel satisfactory to the Representatives. Such counsel may also state that, insofar as such opinion involves factual matters, they have relied, to the extent they deem proper, upon certificates of officers and other representatives of the Company and its subsidiaries and certificates of public officials.

(i) Maintenance of Rating. Since the execution of this Agreement, there shall not have been any decrease in or withdrawal of the rating of any securities of the Company or any of its subsidiaries by any “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” (as defined for purposes of Section 3(a)(62) of the 1934 Act) or any notice given of any intended or potential decrease in or withdrawal of any such rating or of a possible change in any such rating that does not indicate the direction of the possible change.

23

Prior to the Closing Time, the Company, Wilmington Trust, National Association (or another transfer agent acceptable to the Underwriters) and DTC shall have executed and delivered the Letter of Representations, dated the Closing Time, and the Securities shall be eligible for clearance, settlement and trading through the facilities of DTC.

SECTION 6. Indemnification.

(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its affiliates (as such term is defined in Rule 501(b) of the 1933 Act Regulations (each, an “Affiliate”)), selling agents, partners, officers and directors, each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act as follows:

(i) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), including any information deemed to be a part thereof pursuant to Rule 430B, or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included (A) in any preliminary prospectus,

24

any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or (B) in any materials or information provided to investors by, or with the approval of, the Company in connection with the marketing of the offering of the Securities (“Marketing Materials”), including any roadshow or investor presentations made to investors by the Company (whether in person or electronically), or the omission or alleged omission in any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or in any Marketing Materials of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

(ii) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any Governmental Entity, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission; provided that (subject to Section 6(d) hereof) any such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company;

(iii) against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by the Representatives), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any Governmental Entity, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under (i) or (ii) above;

provided, however, that this indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), including any information deemed to be a part thereof pursuant to Rule 430B, or in the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information.

(b) Indemnification of Company, Directors and Officers. Each Underwriter severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, its officers, each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense described in the indemnity contained in Section 6(a) hereof, as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), including any information deemed to be a part thereof pursuant to Rule 430B, or in the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information.

25

(c) Actions against Parties; Notification. Each indemnified party shall give notice as promptly as reasonably practicable to each indemnifying party of any action commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure to so notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability hereunder to the extent it is not materially prejudiced as a result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have otherwise than on account of this indemnity agreement. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and such indemnified party seeks or intends to seek indemnity from an indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and, to the extent that it shall elect, jointly with all other indemnifying parties similarly notified, by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that a conflict may arise between the positions of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in conducting the defense of any such action or that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assume such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of such indemnifying party’s election so to assume the defense of such action and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 6 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (together with local counsel), approved by the indemnifying party (or by the Representatives in the case of Sections 6(b) and 7 hereof), representing the indemnified parties who are parties to such action) or (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action, in each of which cases the fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any Governmental Entity, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this Section 6 or Section 7 hereof (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(d) Settlement without Consent if Failure to Reimburse. If at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by Section 6(a)(ii) effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 30 days prior to such settlement being entered into and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request (other than those fees and expenses that are being contested in good faith) prior to the date of such settlement.

26

SECTION 7. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Section 6 hereof is for any reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by such indemnified party, as incurred, (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, in connection with the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Company, on the one hand, and the total underwriting discount received by the Underwriters, on the other hand, in each case as set forth on the cover of the Prospectus, bear to the aggregate public offering price of the Securities as set forth on the cover of the Prospectus.

The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by the Underwriters, as the case may be, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 7. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section 7 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any Governmental Entity, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

27

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the underwriting discount received by such Underwriter in connection with the Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public.

No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

For purposes of this Section 7, each person, if any, who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act and each Underwriter’s Affiliates, selling agents, partners, officers and directors shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each director of the Company, each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company. The Underwriters’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 7 are several in proportion to the number of Securities set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule A hereto and not joint.

SECTION 8. Representations, Warranties and Agreements to Survive. All representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement, or in certificates of officers of the Company or any of its subsidiaries submitted pursuant hereto, shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or its Affiliates, partners, officers, directors and or selling agents, any person controlling any Underwriter or the Company’s officers or directors or any person controlling the Company and (ii) delivery of and payment for the Securities.

SECTION 9. Termination of Agreement.

(a) Termination. The Representatives may terminate this Agreement, by notice to the Company, at any time at or prior to the Closing Time, (i) if there has been, in the judgment of the Representatives, since the time of execution of this Agreement or since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, any Material Adverse Change, or (ii) if there has occurred any material adverse change in the financial markets in the United States or the international financial markets, any outbreak of hostilities or escalation thereof or other calamity or crisis or any change or development involving a prospective change in national or international political, financial or economic conditions, in each case the effect of which is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Representatives, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the completion of the offering of the Securities or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Securities, or (iii) if trading in any securities of the Company has been suspended or materially limited by the Commission or the New York Stock Exchange, or (iv) if trading generally on the New York Stock Exchange or in the Nasdaq Global Market has been suspended or materially limited, or minimum or maximum prices for trading have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices have been required, by any of said exchanges or by order of the Commission, FINRA or any other Governmental Entity, or (v) if a material disruption has occurred in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United States or with respect to Clearstream or Euroclear systems in Europe, or (vi) if a banking moratorium has been declared by either Federal or New York authorities.

28

(b) Liabilities. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section, such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except as provided in Section 4 hereof, and provided further that Sections 1, 6, 7, 8, 15, 16 and 17 shall survive such termination and remain in full force and effect.

SECTION 10. Default by One or More of the Underwriters. If one or more of the Underwriters shall fail at the Closing Time to purchase the Securities which it or they are obligated to purchase under this Agreement (the “Defaulted Shares”), the Representatives shall have the right, within 36 hours thereafter, to make arrangements for one or more of the non-defaulting Underwriters, or any other underwriters, to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Defaulted Shares in such amounts as may be agreed upon and upon the terms herein set forth; if, however, the Representatives shall not have completed such arrangements within such 36-hour period, then:

(i) if the number of Defaulted Shares does not exceed 10% of the number of Securities to be purchased on such date, each of the non-defaulting Underwriters shall be obligated, severally and not jointly, to purchase the full amount thereof in the proportions that their respective underwriting obligations hereunder bear to the underwriting obligations of all non-defaulting Underwriters, or

(ii) if the number of Defaulted Shares exceeds 10% of the number of Securities to be purchased on such date, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter.

No action taken pursuant to this Section 10 shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of its default.

In the event of any such default which does not result in a termination of this Agreement, the Representatives shall have the right to postpone the Closing Time for a period not exceeding seven days in order to effect any required changes in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements.

CERTIFICATE OF AMENDMENT OF THE CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION

OF

M&T BANK CORPORATION

Under Section 805 of the Business Corporation Law

The undersigned, being the President and Chief Operating Officer of M&T Bank Corporation (the “Corporation”), and the Assistant Secretary of the Corporation, do hereby certify and set forth as follows:

(1) The name of the Corporation is M&T BANK CORPORATION. The name under which the Corporation was formed is First Empire State Corporation.

(2) The certificate of incorporation of the Corporation was filed by the Department of State on the 6th day of November, 1969.

(3) The board of directors of the Corporation (the “Board of Directors”) or a duly authorized committee thereof, in accordance with the certificate of incorporation of the Corporation and applicable law, adopted resolutions on the 17th and 23rd days of July, 2019, creating a series of 40,000 shares of preferred stock of the Corporation designated as “Perpetual 5.0% Fixed-Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series G.”

(4) The certificate of incorporation is hereby amended by adding language to Article FOURTH, which recites the terms and conditions of the Perpetual 5.0% Fixed-Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series G, as follows:

10. A series of preferred stock of the Corporation be and hereby is created, and the designation of such series, the number of shares to comprise such series, the dividend rate or rates payable with respect to the shares of such series, the redemption price, the voting rights, and any other relative rights, preferences and limitations pertaining to such series, are as follows:

Section 1. Designation. The distinctive serial designation of such series is “Perpetual 5.0% Fixed-Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series G” (“Series G”). Each share of Series G shall be identical in all respects to every other share of Series G.

Section 2. Number of Shares. The number of shares of Series G shall be 40,000. Such number may from time to time be increased (but not in excess of the total number of authorized shares of Preferred Stock) or decreased (but not below the number of shares of Series G then outstanding) by the Board of Directors. Shares of Series G that are redeemed, purchased or otherwise acquired by the Corporation shall be cancelled and shall revert to authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock undesignated as to series. Each share of Series G will be identical in all respects to every other share of Series G, except that shares issued after the original issue date of the Series G (the “Original Issue Date”) may only be issued if they are fungible for U.S. federal income tax purposes with the shares of Series G issued on the Original Issue Date and dividends on such shares of Series G will accrue from the Original Issue Date if such shares are issued prior to the first Dividend Payment Date (as defined below) and otherwise dividends will accrue from the date on which such shares are issued (if a Dividend Payment Date) or the Dividend Payment Date next preceding the date on which they are issued. Any additional shares of Series G issued from time to time shall form a single series with the shares of Series G issued on the Original Issue Date; provided that if any such additional shares of Series G are not fungible for U.S. federal income tax purposes with the shares of outstanding Series G issued on the Original Issue Date, such additional shares of Series G will be issued with a separate CUSIP or other identifying number.

Section 3. Definitions. As used herein with respect to Series G:

(a) “Appropriate Federal Banking Agency” means the “appropriate Federal banking agency” with respect to the Corporation as defined in Section 3(q) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C. Section 1813(q)), or any successor provision.

(b) “Business Day” means each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday on which banking institutions in New York are not authorized or obligated by law, regulation or executive order to close.

(c) “Common Stock” means the common stock of the Corporation.

(d) “Dividend Junior Stock” means the Common Stock or any class or series of stock of the Corporation that ranks junior to the Series G in the payment of current dividends.

(e) “Dividend Parity Stock” means any other class or series of stock of the Corporation that ranks on a parity with Series G as to payment of current dividends.

(f) “Junior Stock” means the Common Stock and any other class or series of stock of the Corporation that ranks junior to Series G as to rights on liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation.

(g) “Parity Stock” means any other class or series of stock of the Corporation that ranks on a parity with Series G in the distribution of assets on any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation.

(h) “Regulatory Capital Treatment Event” means the good faith determination by the Corporation that, as a result of (i) any amendment to, or change in, the laws, rules or regulations of the United States or any political subdivision of or in the United States that is enacted or becomes effective after the initial issuance of any share of Series G; (ii) any proposed change (including any such change with a prospective effect) in those laws, rules or regulations that is announced after the initial issuance of any share of Series G (including any announced change with a prospective effect); or (iii) any official administrative decision or judicial decision or administrative action or other official pronouncement interpreting or applying those laws, rules or regulations that is announced after the initial issuance of any share of Series G, there is more than an insubstantial risk that the Corporation will not be entitled to treat the full liquidation value of the shares of Series G then outstanding as “additional tier 1 capital” (or its equivalent or successor) for purposes of the capital adequacy rules of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, Regulation Q, 12 CFR part 217, or any successor rule or regulation of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or, as and if applicable, the capital adequacy rules or regulations of any successor Appropriate Federal Banking Agency), as then in effect and applicable, while any share of Series G is outstanding.

(i) “Stated Amount” means $10,000 per share of Series G.

-2-

Section 4. Dividends.

(a) Rate. Holders of Series G shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors or any duly authorized committee of the Board of Directors, out of assets legally available for payment, non-cumulative cash dividends based on the stated amount of $10,000 per share of Series G.

If declared by the Board of Directors or any duly authorized committee of the Board of Directors, the Corporation shall pay dividends on Series G (i) during the period from the original issue date of Series G to, but excluding, August 1, 2024 (the “Initial Fixed Rate Period”), semi-annually, in arrears, on February 1 and August 1 of each year, beginning on February 1, 2020, and (ii) during the period from and including August 1, 2024 (the “First Reset Date”) through the redemption date of Series G, if any, semi-annually, in arrears, on February 1 and August 1 of each year, beginning on February 1, 2025 (the “Dividend Reset Period”); provided, however, that if any such date is not a Business Day, then such date shall nevertheless be a Dividend Payment Date but dividends on Series G, when, as and if declared, shall be paid on the next succeeding Business Day (without adjustment in the amount of dividends per share of Series G) (each date so determined in accordance with this paragraph, a “Dividend Payment Date”).

Dividends on each share of Series G shall accrue from the original issue date at a rate equal to (i) 5.000% per annum for each Dividend Period (as defined below) during the Initial Fixed Rate Period and (ii) the Five-year U.S. Treasury Rate as of the most recent Reset Dividend Determination Date (as defined below), plus 3.174% per annum, for each Dividend Period during the Dividend Reset Period during the Dividend Reset Period. The amount of dividends payable shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. Dollar amounts resulting from that calculation shall be rounded to the nearest cent, with one half cent being rounded upward.

The dividend rate for each Reset Dividend Determination Date during the Dividend Reset Period will be determined by the Calculation Agent (as defined below). A “Reset Date” means the First Reset Date and each date falling on the fifth anniversary of the preceding Reset Date. Reset Dates, including the First Reset Date, will not be adjusted for Business Days. A “Reset Dividend Determination Date” means, in respect of any Reset Period, the day falling two Business Days prior to the beginning of such Reset Period. A “Reset Period” means the period from and including the commencement of the Dividend Reset Period to, but excluding, the next following Reset Date and thereafter each period from and including each Reset Date to, but excluding, the next following Reset Date. The “Five-year U.S. Treasury Rate” means, as of any Reset Dividend Determination Date, as applicable, (i) an interest rate (expressed as a decimal) determined to be the per annum rate equal to the weekly average yield to maturity for U.S. Treasury securities with a maturity of five years from the next Reset Date and trading in the public securities markets or (ii) if there is no such published U.S. Treasury security with a maturity of five years from the next Reset Date and trading in the public securities markets, then the rate will be determined by interpolation between the most recent weekly average yield to maturity for two series of U.S. Treasury securities trading in the public securities market, (A) one maturing as close as possible to, but earlier than, the Reset Date following the next succeeding Reset Dividend Determination Date, and (B) the other maturity as close as possible to, but later than, the Reset Date following the next succeeding reset dividend determination date, in each case as published in the most recent H.15 (519). If the Five-year U.S. Treasury Rate cannot be determined pursuant to the methods described in clauses (i) or (ii) above, then the Five-year U.S. Treasury Rate will be the same interest rate determined for the prior Reset Dividend Determination Date or, if this sentence is applicable with respect to the first Reset Dividend Determination Date, 1.826%. “H.15 (519)” means the weekly statistical release designated as such, or any successor publication, published by the Board of Governors of the U. S. Federal Reserve System. “The most recent H.15 (519)” means the H.15 (519) published closest in time but prior to the close of business on the second Business Day prior to the applicable Reset Date. “Calculation Agent” shall mean such bank or other entity as may be appointed by the Corporation to act as calculation agent for Series G during the Dividend Reset Period.

-3-

Each such dividend shall be paid to the holders of record of the shares of Series G as they appear on the stock register of the Corporation on the 15th calendar day preceding the applicable Dividend Payment Date or on such other record date, not more than 60 nor less than 10 days preceding the applicable Dividend Payment Date, as shall be fixed by the Board of Directors or any duly authorized committee of the Board of Directors (each, a “Dividend Record Date”). The period from and including any Dividend Payment Date to but excluding the next Dividend Payment Date is referred to herein as a “Dividend Period,” provided that the initial Dividend Period shall be the period from and including the Original Issue Date to but excluding the next Dividend Payment Date. Each Dividend Payment Date “relates” to the Dividend Period most recently ending before such Dividend Payment Date, and vice versa (with the words “related” and “relating” having correlative meanings).

(b) Dividends Noncumulative. Dividends on shares of Series G shall be not be cumulative. To the extent that any dividends payable on the shares of Series G on any Dividend Payment Date are not declared and paid, in full or otherwise, on such Dividend Payment Date, then such unpaid dividends shall not cumulate and shall cease to accrue and be payable, and the Corporation shall have no obligation to pay, and the holders of Series G shall have no right to receive after the Dividend Payment Date for such Dividend Period, dividends accrued for such Dividend Period or interest with respect to such dividends, whether or not dividends are declared for any subsequent Dividend Period with respect to Series G. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, dividends on Series G shall not be declared, paid or set aside for payment to the extent such act would cause the Corporation to fail to comply with laws and regulations applicable thereto, including applicable capital adequacy rules.

(c) Priority of Dividends. During any Dividend Period, so long as any share of Series G remains outstanding, (i) no dividend shall be paid or declared or set apart for any payment on and no distribution shall be made on any Dividend Junior Stock (other than a dividend payable solely in stock that ranks junior to the Series G in the payment of dividends and in the distribution of assets on any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation) and (ii) no shares of Dividend Junior Stock shall be purchased, redeemed or otherwise acquired for consideration by the Corporation, directly or indirectly (other than (A) as a result of (x) a reclassification of Dividend Junior Stock for or into stock that ranks junior to the Series G in the payment of dividends and in the distribution of assets on any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, or (y) the exchange or conversion of one share of Dividend Junior Stock for or into another share of stock that ranks junior to the Series G in the payment of dividends and in the distribution of assets on any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, or (B) through the use of the proceeds of a substantially contemporaneous sale of other shares of stock that ranks junior to the Series G in the payment of dividends and in the distribution of assets on any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation), unless dividends on all outstanding shares of Series G for the most recently completed Dividend Period have been declared and paid in full (or have been declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof has been set apart for such payment).

When dividends are not paid (or declared and a sum sufficient for payment thereof set aside for the benefit of the holders thereof on the applicable record date) in full upon the shares of Series G and any Dividend Parity Stock, all dividends declared upon shares of Series G and all Dividend Parity Stock shall be paid ratably to the holders of Series G and any Dividend Parity Stock, in proportion to the respective amounts of the undeclared and unpaid dividends relating to the current dividend period and, in the case of Dividend Parity Stock that bears cumulative dividends, accrued and unpaid dividends relating to past dividend periods. To the extent a dividend period with respect to any Dividend Parity Stock coincides with more than one Dividend Period with respect to the Series G, for purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof may treat such dividend period as two or more consecutive dividend periods, none of which coincides with more than one Dividend Period with respect to the Series G, or in any other manner that it deems to be fair and

-4-

equitable in order to achieve ratable payments of dividends on such Dividend Parity Stock and the Series G. To the extent a Dividend Period with respect to the Series G coincides with more than one dividend period with respect to any Dividend Parity Stock, for purposes of the first sentence of this paragraph, the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof may treat such Dividend Period as two or more consecutive Dividend Periods, none of which coincides with more than one dividend period with respect to such Dividend Parity Stock, or in any other manner that it deems to be fair and equitable in order to achieve ratable payments of dividends on the Series G and such Dividend Parity Stock.

Subject to the foregoing, and not otherwise, such dividends (payable in cash, stock or otherwise) as may be determined by the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof may be declared and paid on any Dividend Junior Stock from time to time out of any funds legally available therefor, and the shares of Series G shall not be entitled to participate in any such dividend.

The Corporation shall not issue any Dividend Parity Stock that is not Parity Stock.

Section 5. Liquidation Rights.

(a) Voluntary or Involuntary Liquidation. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, holders of Series G shall be entitled, before any distribution or payment out of the assets of the Corporation may be made to or set aside for the holders of any Junior Stock, to receive in full an amount equal to the Stated Amount per share, together with an amount equal to all dividends (if any) that have been declared but not paid prior to the date of payment (but without any amount in respect of dividends that have not been declared prior to such payment date) (the “Liquidation Preference”).

(b) Partial Payment. If the assets of the Corporation are not sufficient to pay the Liquidation Preference in full to all holders of Series G and all holder of any Parity Stock, the amounts paid to the holders of Series G and to the holders of all Parity Stock shall be pro rata in accordance with the respective aggregate Liquidation Preferences of Series G and all such Parity Stock. In any such distribution, the “Liquidation Preference” of any holder of stock of the Corporation other than the Series G shall mean the amount otherwise payable to such holder in such distribution (assuming no limitation on the assets of the Corporation available for such distribution), including an amount equal to any declared but unpaid dividends (and, in the case of any holder of stock on which dividends accrue on a cumulative basis, an amount equal to any unpaid, accrued, cumulative dividends, whether or not declared, as applicable).

(c) Residual Distributions. If the Liquidation Preference has been paid in full to all holders of Series G and all holders of any Parity Stock, the holders of Junior Stock shall be entitled to receive all remaining assets of the Corporation according to their respective rights and preferences.

(d) Merger, Consolidation and Sale of Assets Not Liquidation. For purposes of this Section 5, the merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into any other corporation or entity, including a merger or consolidation in which the holders of Series G receive cash, securities or property for their shares, or the sale, lease, exchange or transfer (for cash, shares of stock, securities or other consideration) of all or any part of the assets of the Corporation, shall not constitute a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation.

Section 6. Redemption.

(a) Optional Redemption. The Series G shall not be redeemable by the Corporation prior to August 1, 2024, except upon the occurrence of a Regulatory Capital Treatment Event as described below.

-5-

The Corporation, at the option of the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof, subject to the approval of the Appropriate Federal Banking Agency and to the satisfaction of any conditions precedent to redemption set forth in the capital adequacy rules or regulations of the Appropriate Federal Banking Agency, may redeem in whole or from time to time in part the shares of Series G at the time outstanding, on any Dividend Payment Date on or after August 1, 2024 upon notice given as provided in Subsection (c) below, at the Redemption Price in effect at the redemption date as provided in this Section 6. The “Redemption Price” for shares of Series G shall be the Stated Amount per share, together (except as otherwise provided herein) with an amount equal to any dividends that have been declared but not paid prior to the redemption date (but with no amount in respect of any dividends that have not been declared prior to such date).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, within 90 days following the occurrence of a Regulatory Capital Treatment Event, the Corporation, at its option, subject to the approval of the Appropriate Federal Banking Agency, may redeem, at any time, all (but not less than all) of the shares of Series G at the time outstanding, upon notice given as provided Subsection (c) below, at the Redemption Price applicable on such date of redemption.

Any declared but unpaid dividends payable on a redemption date that occurs subsequent to the Dividend Record Date for a Dividend Period shall not be paid to the holder entitled to receive the redemption price on the redemption date, but rather shall be paid to the holder of record of the redeemed shares on such Dividend Record Date relating to the Dividend Payment Date as provided in Section 4 above.

(b) No Sinking Fund. The Series G will not be subject to any mandatory redemption, sinking fund or other similar provisions. Holders of Series G will have no right to require redemption or repurchase of any shares of Series G.

(c) Notice of Redemption. Notice of every redemption of shares of Series G shall be given by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the holders of record of the shares to be redeemed at their respective last addresses appearing on the books of the Corporation. Such mailing shall be at least 15 days and not more than 60 days before the date fixed for redemption. Any notice mailed as provided in this Subsection shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the holder receives such notice, but failure duly to give such notice by mail, or any defect in such notice or in the mailing thereof, to any holder of shares of Series G designated for redemption shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other shares of Series G. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Series G or any depositary shares representing interests in the Series G are issued in book-entry form through The Depository Trust Company or any other similar facility, notice of redemption may be given to the holders of Series G at such time and in any manner permitted by such facility. Each such notice given to a holder shall state: (1) the redemption date; (2) the number of shares of Series G to be redeemed and, if less than all the shares held by such holder are to be redeemed, the number of such shares to be redeemed from such holder; (3) the redemption price; (4) the place or places where certificates for such shares are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price; and (5) that dividends on the shares of Series G to be redeemed will cease to accrue on the redemption date.

(d) Partial Redemption. In case of any redemption of only part of the shares of Series G at the time outstanding, the shares to be redeemed shall be selected either pro rata or by lot or in such other manner as the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof may determine to be fair and equitable. Subject to the provisions hereof, the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof shall have full power and authority to prescribe the terms and conditions upon which shares of Series G shall be redeemed from time to time.

-6-

(e) Effectiveness of Redemption. If notice of redemption has been duly given and if on or before the redemption date specified in the notice all funds necessary for the redemption have been deposited by the Corporation, in trust for the pro rata benefit of the holders of the shares called for redemption, with a bank or trust company selected by the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof, so as to be and continue to be available solely therefor, then, notwithstanding that any certificate for any share so called for redemption has not been surrendered for cancellation, on and after the redemption date dividends shall cease to accrue on all shares so called for redemption, all shares so called for redemption shall no longer be deemed outstanding, and all rights with respect to such shares shall forthwith on such redemption date cease and terminate, except only the right of the holders thereof to receive the amount payable on such redemption from such bank or trust company, without interest. Any funds unclaimed at the end of three years from the redemption date shall, to the extent permitted by law, be released to the Corporation, after which time the holders of the shares so called for redemption shall look only to the Corporation for payment of the redemption price of such shares.

Section 7. Voting Rights.

(a) General. The holders of Series G shall not have any voting rights and will not be entitled to elect any directors, except as set forth below or as otherwise from to time required by law. Each holder of Series G will have one vote per share (except as set forth in Section 7(b) below) on any matter in which holders of such shares are entitled to vote, including when acting by written consent. The voting rights provided in this Section 7 shall not apply if, at or prior to the time when the act with respect to which such vote or consent would otherwise be required shall be effected, all outstanding shares of Series G have been redeemed or called for redemption upon proper notice and sufficient funds have been set aside in accordance with Section 6(e).

(b) Right to Elect Two Directors Upon Dividend Defaults. If and whenever dividends payable on Series G shall be in arrears in an aggregate amount equal to at least three semiannual Dividend Periods, whether or not consecutive (a “Nonpayment Event”), the number of directors then constituting the Board of Directors shall be automatically increased by two and the holders of Series G, together with the holders of any other class or series of outstanding preferred stock upon which like voting rights as described in this Subsection have been conferred and are exercisable with respect to such matter (i.e., on which dividends likewise have not been paid) (any such class or series being herein referred to as “Voting Parity Stock”), voting together as a single class in proportion to their respective stated amounts, shall be entitled to elect by a plurality of the votes cast the two additional directors (the “Preferred Stock Directors”); provided that it shall be a qualification for election for any such preferred stock director that the election of such director shall not cause the Corporation to violate the corporate governance requirement of the New York Stock Exchange (or any other securities exchange or other trading facility on which securities of the Corporation may then be listed or traded) that listed or traded companies must have a majority of independent directors.

In the event that the holders of Series G and such other holders of Voting Parity Stock shall be entitled to vote for the election of the Preferred Stock Directors following a Nonpayment Event, such directors shall be initially elected following such Nonpayment Event only at a special meeting called at the request of the holders of record of at least 20% of the Stated Amount of the Series G and each other series of Voting Parity Stock then outstanding, voting together as a single class in proportion to their respective stated amounts (unless such request for a special meeting is received less than 90 days before the date fixed for the next annual or special meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation, in which event such election shall be held only at such next annual or special meeting of stockholders), and at each subsequent annual meeting of stockholders of the Corporation. Such request to call a special meeting for the initial election of the Preferred Stock Directors after a Nonpayment Event shall be made by written notice, signed by the requisite holders of Series G or Voting Parity Stock, and delivered to the Secretary

-7-

of the Corporation in such manner as provided for in Section 9 below, or as may otherwise be required by applicable law. If the Secretary of the Corporation fails to call a special meeting for the election of the Preferred Stock Directors within 20 days of receiving proper notice, any holder of Series G may call such a meeting at the Corporation’s expense solely for the election of the Preferred Stock Directors.

Any Preferred Stock Director may be removed at any time without cause by the holders of record of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series G and Voting Parity Stock, when they have the voting rights described above (voting together as a single class). The Preferred Stock Directors elected at any such special meeting shall hold office until the next annual meeting of the stockholders if such office shall not have previously terminated as below provided. In case any vacancy shall occur among the Preferred Stock Directors, a successor shall be elected by the Board of Directors to serve until the next annual meeting of the stockholders upon the nomination of the then remaining Preferred Stock Director or, if no Preferred Stock Director remains in office, by the vote of the holders of record of a plurality of the outstanding shares of Series G and such Voting Parity Stock, voting as a single class in proportion to their respective stated amounts. The Preferred Stock Directors shall each be entitled to one vote per director on any matter that shall come before the Board of Directors for a vote.

When dividends have been paid in full on the Series G for at least two semi-annual consecutive Dividend Periods, then the right of the holders of Series G to elect the Preferred Stock Directors shall cease (but subject always to revesting of such voting rights in the case of any future Nonpayment Event); and, if and when any rights of holders of Series G and Voting Parity Stock to elect the Preferred Stock Directors shall have ceased, the terms of office of all the Preferred Stock Directors shall forthwith terminate and the number of directors constituting the Board of Directors shall automatically be reduced accordingly.

(c) Other Voting Rights. So long as any shares of Series G are outstanding, in addition to any other vote or consent of stockholders required by law or by the certificate of incorporation the vote or consent of the holders of at least 66 2/3% of the shares of Series G at the time outstanding, voting separately as a single class, given in person or by proxy, either in writing without a meeting or by vote at any meeting called for the purpose, shall be necessary for effecting or validating:

(i) Amendment of Certificate of Incorporation. Any amendment, alteration or repeal of any provision of the certificate of incorporation or by-laws of the Corporation that would alter or change the voting powers, preferences or special rights of the Series G so as to affect them adversely; provided, however, that the amendment of the certificate of incorporation so as to authorize or create, or to increase the authorized amount of (x) any class or series of stock that does not rank senior to the Series G in either the payment of dividends or in the distribution of assets on any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation or (y) any securities (other than capital stock of the Corporation) convertible into any class or series of stock that does not rank senior to the Series G in either the payment of dividends or in the distribution of assets on any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation shall not be deemed to affect adversely the voting powers, preferences or special rights of the Series G;

(ii) Authorization of Senior Stock. Any amendment or alteration of the certificate of incorporation to authorize or create, or increase the authorized amount of, any shares of any class or series or any securities convertible into shares of any class or series of capital stock of the Corporation ranking prior to Series G in the payment of dividends or in the distribution of assets on any liquidation dissolution or winding up of the Corporation; or

-8-

(iii) Share Exchanges, Reclassifications, Mergers and Consolidations and Other Transactions. Any consummation of a binding share exchange or reclassification involving the Series G, or of a merger or consolidation of the Corporation with another corporation or other entity, or any merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into any entity other than a corporation, unless in each case (x) the shares of Series G remain outstanding or, in the case of any such merger or consolidation with respect to which the Corporation is not the surviving or resulting corporation are converted into or exchanged for preference securities of the surviving or resulting corporation, and (y) such shares remaining outstanding or such preference securities, as the case may be, have such rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers, and limitations and restrictions thereof as would not require a vote of the holders of the Series G pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above if such change were effected by an amendment of the certificate of incorporation.

If any amendment, alteration, repeal, share exchange, reclassification, merger or consolidation specified in this Section 7(c) would adversely affect the Series G and one or more but not all other series of preferred stock in substantially the same manner, then only the Series G and such series of preferred stock as are adversely affected by and entitled to vote on the matter shall vote on the matter together as a single class in proportion to their respective stated amounts (in lieu of all other series of preferred stock).

(d) Changes for Clarification. Without the consent of the holders of Series G, so long as such action does not adversely affect the rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers, and limitations and restrictions thereof, the Series G, the Corporation may amend, alter, supplement or repeal any terms of the Series G:

(i) to cure any ambiguity, or to cure, correct or supplement any provision contained in this amendment that may be defective or inconsistent; or

(ii) to make any provision with respect to matters or questions arising with respect to the Series G that is not inconsistent with the provisions of this amendment.

(e) Changes after Provision for Redemption. No vote or Consent of the holders of Series G shall be required pursuant to Section 7(b) or (c) above if, at or prior to the time when any such vote or consent would otherwise be required pursuant to such Section, all outstanding shares of Series G shall have been redeemed, or shall have been called for redemption upon proper notice and sufficient funds shall have been set aside for such redemption, in each case pursuant to Section 6(e) above.

Section 8. Record Holders. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Corporation and the transfer agent for the Series G may deem and treat the record holder of any share of Series G as the true and lawful owner thereof for all purposes, and neither the Corporation nor such transfer agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

Section 9. Notices. All notices or communications in respect of the Series G shall be sufficiently given if given in writing and delivered in person or by first class mail, postage prepaid, or if given in such other manner as may be permitted herein, in the certificate of incorporation or bylaws or by applicable law.

Section 10. Other Rights. The shares of Series G shall not have any voting powers, preferences or relative, participating, optional, preemptive or other special rights, or qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, other than as set forth herein or in the certificate of incorporation of the Corporation. The holders of Series G shall not have any rights to convert such Series G into, or exchange such Series G for, shares of any other class of capital stock of the Corporation.

Section 11. Certificates. The Corporation may at its option issue shares of Series G without certificates.

(5) This amendment to the certificate of incorporation of the Corporation was authorized, pursuant to sections 502 and 803(a) of the Business Corporation Law, by the vote of the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof. The certificate of incorporation of the Corporation provides that the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof may fix the designation of a series of preferred stock, and may establish all relative rights, preferences and limitations pertaining to such series without the approval of the stockholders of the Corporation.

FORM OF RECEIPTS, DEPOSIT OF PREFERRED STOCK, EXECUTION AND DELIVERY,

TRANSFER, SURRENDER AND REDEMPTION OF RECEIPTS

Section 2.1. Form and Transferability of Receipts.

Definitive Receipts shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A annexed to this Deposit Agreement, in each case with appropriate insertions, modifications and omissions, as hereinafter provided. Pending the preparation of definitive Receipts, the Depositary, upon, and pursuant to, the written order of the Company delivered in compliance with Section 2.2 shall be authorized and instructed to, and shall, execute and deliver temporary Receipts which shall be substantially of the tenor of the definitive Receipts in lieu of which they are issued and in each case with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the Company may determine (but which do not affect the rights or duties of the Depositary), as evidenced by the execution of such Receipts. If temporary Receipts are issued, the Company will

3

cause definitive Receipts to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Receipts, the temporary Receipts shall be exchangeable for definitive Receipts upon surrender of the temporary Receipts at the Depositary Office without charge to the holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Receipts, the Depositary is hereby authorized and instructed to, and shall, execute and deliver in exchange therefor definitive Receipts representing the same number of Depositary Shares as represented by the surrendered temporary Receipt or Receipts. Such exchange shall be made at the Company’s expense and without any charge therefor. Until so exchanged, the temporary Receipts shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Deposit Agreement, and with respect to the Preferred Stock deposited with the Depositary, as definitive Receipts.

Receipts shall be executed by the Depositary by the manual signature of a duly authorized signatory of the Depositary; provided, that if a Registrar for the Receipts (other than the Depositary) shall have been appointed then such Receipts shall also be countersigned by manual signature of a duly authorized signatory of the Registrar. No Receipt shall be entitled to any benefits under this Deposit Agreement or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless it shall have been executed as provided in the preceding sentence. The Depositary shall record on its books each Receipt executed as provided above and delivered as hereinafter provided. Receipts bearing the manual signature of a duly authorized signatory of the Depositary who was at any time a proper signatory of the Depositary shall bind the Depositary, notwithstanding that such signatory ceased to hold such office prior to the execution and delivery of such Receipts by the Registrar or did not hold such office on the date of issuance of such Receipts.

Receipts shall be in denominations of any number of whole Depositary Shares. All Receipts shall be dated the date of their issuance.

Receipts may be endorsed with or have incorporated in the text thereof such legends or recitals or changes not inconsistent with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement as may be required by the Depositary and approved by the Company, or which the Company has determined are required to comply with any applicable law or regulation or with the rules and regulations of any exchange upon which the Depositary Shares may be listed for trading or to conform with any usage with respect thereto, or to indicate any special limitations or restrictions to which any particular Receipts are subject, in each case as directed by the Company.

Title to any Receipt (and to the Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt) that is properly endorsed, or accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer, or endorsement shall be transferable by delivery with the same effect as in the case of a negotiable instrument; provided, however, that until transfer of a Receipt shall be registered on the books of the Depositary as provided in Section 2.4, the Depositary may, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, treat the record holder thereof at such time as the absolute owner thereof for the purpose of determining the person entitled to distributions of dividends or other distributions or payments with respect to the Preferred Stock, to exercise any redemption or voting rights or to receive any notice provided for in this Deposit Agreement and for all other purposes.

4

Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision herein to the contrary, the Depositary and the Company will reasonably cooperate with the underwriters for the public offering of the Depositary Shares to make application to DTC for acceptance of all or a portion of the Receipts for its book-entry settlement system. In connection therewith, the Company hereby appoints the Depositary acting through any authorized officer thereof as its attorney-in-fact, with full power to delegate, for purposes of executing any agreements, certifications or other instruments or documents necessary or desirable in order to effect the acceptance of such Receipts for DTC eligibility. So long as the Receipts are eligible for book-entry settlement with DTC, unless otherwise required by law, all Depositary Shares to be traded with book-entry settlement through DTC shall be represented by one or more receipts (the “DTC Receipts”), which shall be deposited with DTC (or its custodian) evidencing all such Depositary Shares and registered in the name of the nominee of DTC (initially expected to be Cede & Co.). The Depositary or such other entity as is agreed to by DTC may hold the DTC Receipts as custodian for DTC. Ownership of beneficial interests in the DTC Receipts shall be shown on, and the transfer of such ownership shall be effected through, records maintained by (i) DTC or its nominee for such DTC Receipts, or (ii) institutions that have accounts with DTC.

If issued, the DTC Receipts shall be exchangeable for definitive Receipts only if (i) DTC notifies the Company and the Depositary at any time that it is unwilling or unable to continue to make its book-entry settlement system available for the Receipts and a successor to DTC is not appointed by the Company within 90 days of the date the Company is so informed in writing, (ii) DTC notifies the Company and the Depositary at any time that it has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under applicable law and a successor to DTC is not appointed by the Company within 90 days of the date the Company is so informed in writing or (iii) the Company executes and delivers to DTC a notice to the effect that such DTC Receipts shall be so exchangeable. If the beneficial owners of interests in Depositary Shares are entitled to exchange such interests for definitive Receipts as the result of an event described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of the preceding sentence, then without unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the earliest date on which such beneficial interests may be so exchanged, the Depositary is hereby directed to and shall provide written instructions to DTC to deliver to the Depositary for cancellation the DTC Receipts, and the Company shall instruct the Depositary in writing to execute and deliver to the beneficial owners of the Depositary Shares previously evidenced by the DTC Receipts definitive Receipts in physical form evidencing such Depositary Shares. The DTC Receipts shall be in such form and shall bear such legend or legends as may be appropriate or required by DTC in order for it to accept the Depositary Shares for its book-entry settlement system. Notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, if the Receipts are at any time eligible for book-entry settlement through DTC, delivery of shares of Preferred Stock and other property in connection with the withdrawal or redemption of Depositary Shares will be made through DTC, and in accordance with its procedures, or through the Depositary’s procedures if not DTC eligible, unless the holder of the relevant Receipt otherwise requests and such request is reasonably acceptable to the Depositary and the Company.

Section 2.2. Deposit of Preferred Stock; Execution and Delivery of Receipts in Respect Thereof.

Concurrently with the execution of this Deposit Agreement, the Company is delivering to the Depositary a certificate or certificates, registered in the name of the Depositary, evidencing 40,000 shares of Preferred Stock, properly endorsed or accompanied, if required by the Depositary, by a duly executed instrument of transfer or endorsement, in form satisfactory to the Depositary, together with (i) all such certifications as may be required by the Depositary in

5

accordance with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement and (ii) a written order of the Company directing the Depositary to execute and deliver to, or upon the written order of, the person or persons stated in such order a Receipt or Receipts for the Depositary Shares representing such deposited Preferred Stock registered in such names specified in such written order. The Depositary acknowledges receipt of the aforementioned 40,000 shares of Preferred Stock and related documentation and agrees to hold such deposited Preferred Stock in an account to be established by the Depositary at the Depositary Office or at such other office as the Depositary shall determine. The Company hereby appoints the Depositary as the Registrar and Transfer Agent for the Preferred Stock deposited hereunder and the Depositary hereby accepts such appointment and, as such, will reflect changes in the number of shares (including any fractional shares) of deposited Preferred Stock held by it by notation, book-entry or other appropriate method.

Upon receipt by the Depositary of a certificate or certificates for Preferred Stock deposited in accordance with the provisions of this Section, together with the other documents specified above, and upon registering such Preferred Stock in the name of the Depositary, the Depositary, subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, shall execute and deliver to, or upon the order of, the person or persons named in the written order delivered to the Depositary referred to in the first paragraph of this Section 2.2, a Receipt or Receipts for the number of whole Depositary Shares representing the Preferred Stock so deposited and registered in such name or names as may be requested by such person or persons. The Depositary shall execute and deliver such Receipt or Receipts at the Depositary Office, except that, at the request, risk and expense of any person requesting such delivery, such delivery may be made at such other place as may be designated by such person. Other than in the case of splits, combinations or other reclassifications affecting the Preferred Stock, or in the case of dividends or other distributions of Preferred Stock, if any, there shall be deposited hereunder not more than the number of shares constituting the Preferred Stock as set forth in the Certificate of Amendment, as such may be amended. To the extent that the Company issues shares of Preferred Stock in excess of the amount set forth in the Certificate of Amendment as of the date hereof (which shares have been validly authorized by the Company), the Company shall notify the Depositary of such issuance in writing.

Section 2.3. Optional Redemption of Preferred Stock for Cash.

Whenever the Company shall elect to redeem shares of deposited Preferred Stock for cash in accordance with the provisions of the Certificate of Amendment (including on account of a Regulatory Capital Treatment Event, as defined therein), it shall (unless otherwise agreed in writing with the Depositary) give the Depositary not less than 15 nor more than 65 days’ prior written notice of the date fixed for redemption of such Preferred Stock (the “redemption date”) and of the number of such shares of Preferred Stock held by the Depositary to be redeemed and the applicable redemption price (the “redemption price”), as set forth in the Certificate of Amendment. At the written direction and sole expense of the Company, the Depositary shall send notice of the redemption of Preferred Stock and the proposed simultaneous redemption of the Depositary Shares representing the Preferred Stock to be redeemed, not less than 10 and not more than 60 days prior to the redemption date, to the holders of record on the record date fixed for such redemption pursuant to Section 4.4 of the Receipts evidencing the Depositary Shares to be so redeemed, at the addresses of such holders as the same appear on the records of the

Depositary; provided however, that if the Depositary Shares are represented by a DTC Receipt as described in Section 2.1 above, notice will be given in accordance with the procedures of DTC; but neither the failure to send any such notice to one or more such holder, nor any defect in any such notice, shall affect the sufficiency of the proceedings for redemption except as to the holder to whom notice was defective or not given.

Unless DTC procedures require otherwise, the Company shall prepare and provide the Depositary with such notice, and each such notice shall state: (i) the redemption date; (ii) the redemption price (including any declared and unpaid dividends); (iii) the number of shares of deposited Preferred Stock and Depositary Shares to be redeemed; (iv) if fewer than all Depositary Shares held by any holder are to be redeemed, the number of such Depositary Shares held by such holder to be so redeemed; (v) the place or places where the Preferred Stock and the Receipts evidencing Depositary Shares to be redeemed are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price; and (vi) that on the redemption date dividends in respect of the Preferred Stock represented by the Depositary Shares to be redeemed will cease to accrue.

In the event that notice of redemption has been made as described in the immediately preceding paragraphs and the Company shall then have paid in full to the Depositary the redemption price (determined pursuant to the Certificate of Amendment) of the Preferred Stock deposited with the Depositary to be redeemed, the Depositary shall redeem the number of Depositary Shares representing such Preferred Stock so called for redemption by the Company, and on the redemption date (unless the Company shall have failed to pay for the shares of Preferred Stock to be redeemed by it as set forth in the Company’s notice provided for in the preceding paragraph), all dividends in respect of the shares of Preferred Stock called for redemption shall cease to accrue; the Depositary Shares called for redemption shall be deemed no longer to be outstanding, and all rights of the holders of Receipts evidencing such Depositary Shares (except the right to receive the redemption price (including any declared and unpaid dividends)) shall, to the extent of such Depositary Shares, cease and terminate. Upon surrender in accordance with said notice of the Receipts evidencing such Depositary Shares (properly endorsed or assigned for transfer, if the Depositary shall so require), such Depositary Shares shall be redeemed by the Depositary at a redemption price per Depositary Share equal to 1/10^th of the redemption price per share paid in respect of the shares of Preferred Stock, plus declared and unpaid dividends thereon to the date fixed for redemption; provided that, in accordance with the provisions of the Certificate of Amendment, any declared but unpaid dividends payable on a redemption date that occurs subsequent to the record date fixed pursuant to Section 4.4 for a dividend period shall not be paid to the holder of a Receipt entitled to receive the redemption price on the redemption date, but rather shall be paid to the holder of such Receipt on such record date.

If less than all of the Depositary Shares evidenced by a Receipt are called for redemption, the Depositary will deliver to the holder of such Receipt upon its surrender to the Depositary, together with payment of the redemption price for and all other amounts payable in respect of the Depositary Shares called for redemption, a new Receipt evidencing the Depositary Shares evidenced by such prior Receipt and not called for redemption; provided, however, that such replacement Receipt shall be issued only in denominations of whole Depositary Shares and cash will be payable by the Company in respect of fractional interests.

7

If less than all of the Preferred Stock is redeemed pursuant to the Company’s exercise of its optional redemption right, the Depositary will select the Depositary Shares to be redeemed pursuant to this Section 2.3 on a pro rata basis, by lot or in such other manner as the Depositary, after consultation with the Company, may determine to be fair and equitable; provided, however, that with respect to any DTC Receipt the selection of Depositary Shares to be redeemed shall be in accordance with the procedures of DTC.

Section 2.4. Registration of Transfers of Receipts.

The Company hereby appoints the Depositary as the Registrar and Transfer Agent for the Receipts and the Depositary hereby accepts such appointment and, as such, shall register on its books from time to time transfers of Receipts upon any surrender thereof by the holder in person or by a duly authorized attorney, agent or representative properly endorsed or accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer or endorsement, together with evidence of the payment by the applicable party of any transfer taxes as may be required by law. Upon such surrender, the Depositary shall execute a new Receipt or Receipts and deliver the same to or upon the order of the person entitled thereto evidencing the same aggregate number of Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipt or Receipts surrendered.

Section 2.5. Combinations and Split-ups of Receipts.

Upon surrender of a Receipt or Receipts at the Depositary Office or such other office as the Depositary may designate for the purpose of effecting a split-up or combination of Receipts, subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary shall execute and deliver a new Receipt or Receipts in the authorized denominations requested evidencing the same aggregate number of Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipt or Receipts surrendered.

Section 2.6. Surrender of Receipts and Withdrawal of Preferred Stock.

Any holder of a Receipt or Receipts may withdraw any number of whole shares of deposited Preferred Stock represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt or Receipts and all money and other property, if any, represented by such Depositary Shares by surrendering such Receipt or Receipts at the Depositary Office or at such other office as the Depositary may designate for such withdrawals; provided, that a holder of a Receipt or Receipts may not withdraw such Preferred Stock (or money and other property, if any, represented thereby) which has previously been called for redemption. If such holder’s Depositary Shares are being held by DTC or its nominee, such holder shall request withdrawal from the book-entry system of the number of Depositary Shares specified in the preceding sentence. Upon such surrender, upon payment of the fee of the Depositary for the surrender of Receipts to the extent provided in Section 5.7 and payment of all taxes and governmental charges in connection with such surrender and withdrawal of Preferred Stock, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, without unreasonable delay, the Depositary shall deliver to such holder, or to the person or persons designated by such holder as hereinafter provided, the number of whole shares of such Preferred Stock and all such money and other property, if any, represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipt or Receipts so surrendered for withdrawal, but holders of such whole shares of Preferred Stock will not thereafter be entitled to deposit such Preferred Stock hereunder or to

8

receive Depositary Shares therefor. If the Receipt or Receipts delivered by the holder to the Depositary in connection with such withdrawal shall evidence a number of Depositary Shares in excess of the number of Depositary Shares representing the number of whole shares of deposited Preferred Stock to be withdrawn, the Depositary shall at the same time, in addition to such number of whole shares of Preferred Stock and such money and other property, if any, to be withdrawn, deliver to such holder, or (subject to Section 2.4) upon his order, a new Receipt or Receipts evidencing such excess number of Depositary Shares. Delivery of such Preferred Stock and such money and other property, if any, being withdrawn may be made by the delivery of such certificates, documents of title and other instruments as the Depositary may deem appropriate, which, if required by the Depositary, shall be properly endorsed or accompanied by proper instruments of transfer.

If the deposited Preferred Stock and the money and other property, if any, being withdrawn are to be delivered to a person or persons other than the record holder of the Receipt or Receipts being surrendered for withdrawal of Preferred Stock, such holder shall execute and deliver to the Depositary a written order so directing the Depositary and the Depositary may require that the Receipt or Receipts surrendered by such holder for withdrawal of such shares of Preferred Stock be properly endorsed in blank or accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer or endorsement in blank.

The Depositary shall deliver the deposited Preferred Stock and the money and other property, if any, represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by Receipts surrendered for withdrawal at the Depositary Office, except that, at the request, risk and expense of the holder surrendering such Receipt or Receipts and for the account of the holder thereof, such delivery may be made at such other place as may be designated by such holder. The Company shall cooperate with the Depositary to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.6.

Section 2.7. Limitations on Execution and Delivery, Transfer, Split-up, Combination, Surrender and Exchange of Receipts.

As a condition precedent to the execution and delivery, transfer, split-up, combination, surrender or exchange of any Receipt, the Depositary, any of the Depositary’s Agents or the Company may require any or all of the following: (i) payment to it of a sum sufficient for the payment (or, in the event that the Company shall have made such payment, the reimbursement to it) of any tax or other governmental charge and stock transfer or registration fee with respect thereto (including any such tax or charge with respect to the Preferred Stock being deposited or withdrawn) and (ii) the production of evidence satisfactory to it as to the identity and genuineness of any signature (or the authority of any signature).

The deposit of Preferred Stock may be refused, the delivery of Receipts against Preferred Stock may be suspended, the transfer of Receipts may be refused, and the transfer, split-up, combination, surrender, exchange or redemption of outstanding Receipts may be suspended (i) during any period when the register of stockholders of the Company or the Depositary Office is closed or (ii) if any such action is deemed reasonably necessary or advisable by the Depositary, any of the Depositary’s Agents or the Company at any time or from time to time because of any requirement of law or of any government or governmental body or commission, or under any other provision of this Deposit Agreement.

9

Section 2.8. Lost Receipts, etc.

In case any Receipt shall be mutilated and surrendered to the Depositary or destroyed or lost or stolen, the Depositary shall execute and deliver a Receipt of like form and tenor in exchange and substitution for such mutilated Receipt or in lieu of and in substitution for such destroyed, lost or stolen Receipt; provided, that the holder thereof shall have (a) filed with the Depositary (i) a request for such execution and delivery before the Depositary has notice that the Receipt has been acquired by a protected purchaser and (ii) an indemnity bond and (b) satisfied any other reasonable requirements imposed by the Depositary.

Section 2.9. Cancellation and Destruction of Surrendered Receipts.

All Receipts surrendered to the Depositary or any Depositary’s Agent shall be cancelled by the Depositary. Except as prohibited by applicable law or regulation, the Depositary is authorized and directed to destroy all Receipts so cancelled.

Section 2.10. No Pre-Release.

The Depositary shall not deliver any deposited Preferred Stock evidenced by Receipts prior to the receipt and cancellation of such Receipts or other similar method used with respect to Receipts held by DTC. The Depositary shall not issue any Receipts prior to the receipt by the Depositary of the corresponding Preferred Stock evidenced by such Receipts. At no time will any Receipts be outstanding if such Receipts do not represent Preferred Stock deposited with the Depositary.

Section 2.11. Receipt, Preferred Stock, Cash Delivery.

The Company shall deliver to the Depositary from time to time such quantities of cash, Receipts and Preferred Stock as the Depositary may request to enable the Depositary to perform its obligations under this Deposit Agreement.

ARTICLE III

CERTAIN OBLIGATIONS OF

HOLDERS OF RECEIPTS AND THE COMPANY

Section 3.1. Filing Proofs, Certificates and Other Information.

Any holder of a Receipt may be required from time to time to file with the Depositary such proof of residence, guarantee of signature or other information and to execute such certificates as the Depositary may reasonably deem necessary or proper or the Company may reasonably require by written request to the Depositary. The Depositary or the Company may withhold or delay the delivery of any Receipt, the transfer, redemption or exchange of any Receipt, the withdrawal of the deposited Preferred Stock represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by any Receipt, the distribution of any dividend or other distribution or the sale of any rights or of the proceeds thereof, until such proof or other information is filed, or such certificates are executed.

10

Section 3.2. Payment of Fees and Expenses.

Holders of Receipts shall be obligated to make payments to the Depositary of certain fees and expenses and taxes or other governmental charges to the extent provided in Section 5.7, or provide evidence satisfactory to the Depositary that such fees and expenses and taxes or other governmental charges have been paid. Until such payment is made, transfer of any Receipt or any withdrawal of the Preferred Stock or money or other property, if any, represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt may be refused, any dividend or other distribution may be withheld, and any part or all of the Preferred Stock or other property represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt may be sold for the account of the holder thereof (after attempting by reasonable means to notify such holder a reasonable number of days prior to such sale). Any dividend or other distribution so withheld and the proceeds of any such sale may be applied to any payment of such fees or expenses, the holder of such Receipt remaining liable for any deficiency.

Section 3.3. Representations and Warranties as to Preferred Stock.

In the case of the initial deposit of the Preferred Stock hereunder, the Company represents and warrants that such Preferred Stock and each certificate therefor are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. Such representations and warranties shall survive the deposit of the Preferred Stock and the issuance of Receipts.

Section 3.4. Representation and Warranty as to Receipts and Depositary Shares.

The Company hereby represents and warrants that the Receipts, when issued, will evidence legal and valid interests in the Depositary Shares and each Depositary Share will represent a legal and valid 1/10th fractional interest in a share of deposited Preferred Stock represented by such Depositary Share. Such representation and warranty shall survive the deposit of the Preferred Stock and the issuance of Receipts evidencing the Depositary Shares.

Each holder of a Receipt or a Depositary Share acknowledges that the holder either (i) is not an “employee benefit plan” as defined in section 3(3) of the employee retirement income security act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), that is subject to title I of ERISA, a “plan” within the meaning of section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), to which section 4975 of the Code applies, an entity whose underlying assets are deemed to include “plan assets” under Department of Labor regulation 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3- 101, as modified by section 3(42) of ERISA (each of the foregoing, a “Benefit Plan Investor”) or a governmental, non-U.S. or other employee benefit plan which is subject to any U.S. Federal, state or local law, or non-U.S. law, that is substantially similar to the provisions of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (“Similar Law”), or (ii) its purchase and holding of the Receipts or the Depositary Shares will not result in (A) a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, or, (B) in the case it is a governmental, non-U.S. or other employee benefit plan not subject to ERISA (or an entity whose underlying assets include the assets of any such plan), a violation of any Similar Law.

ARTICLE IV

THE DEPOSITED SECURITIES; NOTICES

Section 4.1. Cash Distributions.

Whenever the Depositary shall receive any cash dividend or other cash distribution on the deposited Preferred Stock, including any cash received upon redemption of any shares of Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 2.3, the Depositary shall, subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2, distribute to record holders of Receipts on the record date fixed pursuant to Section 4.4 such amounts of such sum as are, as nearly as practicable, in proportion to the respective numbers of Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipts held by such holders; provided, however, that in case the Company or the Depositary shall be required by law to and shall withhold from any cash dividend or other cash distribution in respect of the Preferred Stock represented by the Receipts held by any holder an amount on account of taxes or as otherwise required by law, regulation or court process, the amount made available for distribution or distributed in respect of Depositary Shares represented by such Receipts subject to such withholding shall be reduced accordingly. The Depositary, however, shall distribute or make available for distribution, as the case may be, only such amount as can be distributed without attributing to any holder of Receipts a fraction of one cent. Any such fractional amounts shall be rounded down to the nearest whole cent and so distributed to registered holders entitled thereto and any balance not so distributable shall be held by the Depositary (without liability for interest thereon) and shall be added to and be treated as part of the next succeeding distribution to record holders of such Receipts. Each holder of a Receipt shall provide the Depositary with a properly completed Form W-8 (i.e., Form W-8BEN, Form W-8EXP, Form W-8IMY, Form W8ECI or another applicable Form W-8) or Form W-9 (which form shall set forth such holder’s certified taxpayer identification number if requested on such form), as may be applicable. Each holder of a Receipt acknowledges that, in the event of non-compliance with the preceding sentence the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, may require withholding by the Depositary of a portion of any of the distribution to be made hereunder.

Section 4.2. Distributions Other Than Cash.

Whenever the Depositary shall receive any distribution other than cash on the deposited Preferred Stock, the Depositary shall, subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2, distribute to record holders of Receipts on the record date fixed pursuant to Section 4.4 such amounts of the securities or property received by it as are, as nearly as practicable, in proportion to the respective numbers of Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipts held by such holders, in any manner that the Depositary and the Company may deem equitable and practicable for accomplishing such distribution. If in the opinion of the Depositary and the Company such distribution cannot be made proportionately among such record holders, or if for any other reason (including any requirement that the Company or the Depositary withhold an amount on account of taxes) the Company deems, after consultation with the Depositary, such distribution not to be feasible, the Depositary may, in consultation with and upon the approval of the Company, adopt such method as it deems equitable and practicable for the purpose of effecting such distribution, including the sale (at public or private sale) by the Company of the securities or property thus received, or any part thereof, at such place or places and upon such terms as it may deem proper. The net proceeds of any such sale shall be, subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2, distributed or made available for distribution, as the case may be, by the Depositary to record holders of Receipts as provided by Section 4.1 in the case of a distribution received in cash.

12

Section 4.3. Subscription Rights, Preferences or Privileges.

If the Company shall at any time offer or cause to be offered to the persons in whose names deposited Preferred Stock is registered on the books of the Company any rights, preferences or privileges to subscribe for or to purchase any securities or any rights, preferences or privileges of any other nature, such rights, preferences or privileges shall in each such instance be made available by the Depositary to the record holders of Receipts in such manner as the Company shall instruct (including by the issue to such record holders of warrants representing such rights, preferences or privileges); provided, however, that (a) if at the time of issue or offer of any such rights, preferences or privileges the Company determines upon advice of its legal counsel that it is not lawful or feasible to make such rights, preferences or privileges available to the holders of Receipts (by the issue of warrants or otherwise) or (b) if and to the extent instructed by holders of Receipts who do not desire to exercise such rights, preferences or privileges, the Depositary shall then, if so directed by the Company and provided with an opinion of counsel to the effect that if the Depositary undertakes such actions it will not be deemed an “issuer” under the Securities Act or an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and if applicable laws or the terms of such rights, preferences or privileges so permit, sell such rights, preferences or privileges of such holders at public or private sale, at such place or places and upon such terms as it may deem proper. The net proceeds of any such sale shall, subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2, be distributed by the Depositary to the record holders of Receipts entitled thereto as provided by Section 4.1 in the case of a distribution received in cash. If registration under the Securities Act of the securities to which any rights, preferences or privileges relate is required in order for holders of Receipts to be offered or sold the securities to which such rights, preferences or privileges relate, the Company agrees that it will promptly notify the Depositary of such requirement. The Depositary shall not make any distribution of such rights, preferences or privileges, unless the Company shall have provided to the Depositary an opinion of counsel stating that such rights, preferences or privileges have been registered under the Securities Act or do not need to be registered.

If any other action under the law of any jurisdiction or any governmental or administrative authorization, consent or permit is required in order for such rights, preferences or privileges to be made available to holders of Receipts, the Company agrees that it will promptly notify the Depositary of such requirement and to use its commercially reasonable efforts to take such action or obtain such authorization, consent or permit sufficiently in advance of the expiration of such rights, preferences or privileges to enable such holders to exercise such rights, preferences or privileges.

The Depositary will not be deemed to have any knowledge of any item for which it is supposed to receive notification under any Section of this Deposit Agreement unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Depositary has actually received such notification.

13

Section 4.4. Notice of Dividends; Fixing of Record Date for Holders of Receipts.

Whenever any cash dividend or other cash distribution shall become payable, any distribution other than cash shall be made, or any rights, preferences or privileges shall at any time be offered, with respect to the deposited Preferred Stock, or whenever the Depositary shall receive notice of (i) any meeting at which holders of such Preferred Stock are entitled to vote or of which holders of such Preferred Stock are entitled to notice or (ii) any election on the part of the Company to redeem any shares of such Preferred Stock, the Depositary shall in each such instance fix a record date (which shall be the same date as the record date fixed by the Company with respect to the Preferred Stock as notified in writing to the Depositary) for the determination of the holders of Receipts who shall be entitled to receive such dividend, distribution, rights, preferences or privileges or the net proceeds of the sale thereof, to give instructions for the exercise of voting rights at any such meeting or to receive notice of such meeting or whose Depositary Shares are to be so redeemed.

Within one Business Day of the reset dividend determination date for each reset period during the Dividend Reset Period (as each such term is defined in the Certificate of Amendment), the Company shall provide written notice to the Depositary and the holders of Receipts of the dividend rate applicable to such reset period. Five Business Days prior to the date on which a cash dividend or other cash distribution is to be made to holders, the Company shall notify the Depositary of the amount of such Dividend to be paid on such date.

Section 4.5. Voting Rights.

Upon receipt of notice of any meeting at which the holders of deposited Preferred Stock are entitled to vote, the Depositary shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, mail (or, if applicable, for a DTC Receipt, provide to DTC in accordance with DTC’s procedures) to the record holders of Receipts a notice, which shall be provided by the Company and which shall contain (i) such information as is contained in such notice of meeting, (ii) a statement that the holders of Receipts at the close of business on a specified record date fixed pursuant to Section 4.4 will be entitled, subject to any applicable provision of law, to instruct the Depositary as to the exercise of the voting rights pertaining to the amount of Preferred Stock represented by their respective Depositary Shares and (iii) a brief statement as to the manner in which such instructions may be given. Upon the written request of a holder of a Receipt on such record date, the Depositary shall insofar as practicable vote or cause to be voted the amount of Preferred Stock represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt in accordance with the instructions set forth in such request. To the extent any such instructions request the voting of a fractional interest of a share of deposited Preferred Stock, the Depositary shall aggregate such interest with all other fractional interests resulting from requests with the same voting instructions and shall vote the number of whole votes, rounded down, resulting from such aggregation in accordance with the instructions received in such requests. Each share of Preferred Stock is entitled to one vote and, accordingly, each Depositary Share is entitled to 1/10th of a vote (except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Amendment). The Company hereby agrees to take all reasonable action that may be deemed necessary by the Depositary in order to enable the Depositary to vote such Preferred Stock or cause such Preferred Stock to be voted. In the absence of specific instructions from the holder of a Receipt, the Depositary will not vote Depositary Shares held by it. In the absence of authorization from the holder of a Receipt, the

14

Depositary will abstain from voting (but shall appear at any meeting with respect to the Preferred Stock unless directed to the contrary by the record holders of all the related Receipts) to the extent of the shares of Preferred Stock (or portion thereof) represented by the applicable Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt.

Section 4.6. Changes Affecting Preferred Stock and Reorganization Events.

Upon any change in liquidation preference, par or stated value, split-up, combination or any other reclassification of the Preferred Stock, any Reorganization Event or any exchange of the Preferred Stock for cash, securities or other property, the Depositary shall, upon the written instructions of the Company setting forth any of the following adjustments, (i) reflect such adjustments in the Depositary’s books and records in (a) the fraction of an interest represented by one Depositary Share in one share of Preferred Stock and (b) the ratio of the redemption price per Depositary Share to the redemption price of a share of Preferred Stock, as may be required by or as is consistent with the provisions of the Certificate of Amendment to fully reflect the effects of such change in liquidation preference, par or stated value, split-up, combination or other reclassification of Preferred Stock, of such Reorganization Event or of such exchange and (ii) treat any shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) that shall be received by the Depositary in exchange for or in respect of the Preferred Stock as new deposited property under this Deposit Agreement, and Receipts then outstanding shall thenceforth represent the proportionate interests of holders thereof in the new deposited property so received in exchange for or in respect of such Preferred Stock. In any such case the Depositary may, upon the receipt of written request of the Company, execute and deliver additional Receipts, or may call for the surrender of all outstanding Receipts to be exchanged for new Receipts specifically describing such new deposited property. Anything to the contrary herein notwithstanding, holders of Receipts shall have the right from and after the effective date of any such change in liquidation preference, par or stated value, split-up, combination or other reclassification of the Preferred Stock or any such recapitalization, reorganization, merger, amalgamation or consolidation to surrender such Receipts to the Depositary with instructions to convert, exchange or surrender the Preferred Stock represented thereby only into or for, as the case may be, the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property and cash into which the Preferred Stock represented by such Receipts might have been converted or for which such Preferred Stock might have been exchanged or surrendered immediately prior to the effective date of such transaction.

Section 4.7. Inspection of Reports.

The Depositary shall make available for inspection by record holders of Receipts at the Depositary Office and at such other places as it may from time to time deem advisable during normal business hours any reports and communications received from the Company that are both received by the Depositary as the holder of deposited Preferred Stock and made generally available to the holders of the Preferred Stock. In addition, the Depositary shall transmit, upon written request of, and at the sole cost and expense of, the Company, certain notices and reports to the holders of Receipts as provided in Section 7.4.

15

Section 4.8. Lists of Receipt Holders.

Promptly upon request from time to time by the Company, the Registrar shall furnish to the Company a list, as of a recent date specified by the Company, of the names, addresses and holdings of Depositary Shares of all persons in whose names Receipts are registered on the books of the Registrar.

ARTICLE V

The Registrar shall keep books at the Depositary Office for the registration and transfer of Receipts, which books at all reasonable times, shall be open for inspection by the record holders of Receipts as provided by applicable law. The Company may cause the Registrar to close such books, at any time or from time to time, when deemed expedient by it in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder.

Section 5.2. Prevention or Delay in Performance by the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agents, the Registrar or the Company.

None of the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar, any Transfer Agent, or the Company, nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents, shall incur any liability to any holder of any Receipt, if by reason of any provision of any present or future law or regulation thereunder of the United States of America or of any other governmental authority or, in the case of the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent or the Registrar or Transfer Agent, by reason of any provision, present or future, of the Certificate of Incorporation or, in the case of the Company, the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, the Transfer Agent or the Registrar, by reason of any act of God or war or other circumstance beyond the control of the relevant party, the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, the Transfer Agent, the Registrar or the Company shall be prevented or forbidden from doing or performing any act or thing that the terms of this Deposit Agreement provide shall be done or performed; nor shall the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, the Transfer Agent, any Registrar or the Company incur any liability to any holder of a Receipt by reason of any nonperformance or delay, caused as aforesaid, in the performance of any act or thing that the terms of this Deposit Agreement provide shall or may be done or performed, or by reason of any exercise of, or failure to exercise, any discretion provided for in this Deposit Agreement.

16

Section 5.3. Obligations of the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agents, the Registrar and the Company.

Neither the Depositary nor any Depositary’s Agent nor any Transfer Agent or Registrar nor the Company, nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents, assumes any obligation or shall be subject to any liability under this Deposit Agreement to holders of Receipts, other than for its gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith in the performance of its duties as specifically set forth under this Deposit Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, neither the Depositary, nor any Depositary’s Agent nor any Transfer Agent or Registrar nor the Company shall be liable for any special, indirect, incidental, consequential, punitive or exemplary damages, including but not limited to, lost profits, even if such person or entity alleged to be liable has knowledge of the possibility of such damages and regardless of the form of action.

None of the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar or Transfer Agent or the Company shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any action, suit or other proceeding with respect to the deposited Preferred Stock, Depositary Shares or Receipts that in its opinion may involve it in loss, expense or liability, unless indemnity satisfactory to it against all loss, expense and liability be furnished as often as may be required.

None of the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar or Transfer Agent or the Company shall be liable for any action or any failure to act by it in reliance upon the advice of legal counsel or accountants, or information provided by any person presenting Preferred Stock for deposit or any holder of a Receipt. The Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar or Transfer Agent and the Company may each rely and shall each be protected in acting upon any written notice, request, direction or other document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.

In the event the Depositary shall receive conflicting claims, requests or instructions from any holders of Receipts, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, the Depositary shall be entitled to act on such claims, requests or instructions received from the Company, and shall incur no liability and shall be entitled to the full indemnification set forth in Section 5.6 in connection with any action so taken.

The Depositary shall not be responsible for any failure to carry out any instruction to vote any of the deposited Preferred Stock or for the manner or effect of any such vote made, as long as any such action or non-action does not result from bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Depositary (which bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct must be determined by a final non-appealable order, judgment, decision or ruling of a court of competent jurisdiction). The Depositary undertakes, and any Registrar or Transfer Agent shall be required to undertake, to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Deposit Agreement, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Depositary or any Registrar or Transfer Agent. Permissive rights of the Depositary shall not be construed as duties.

17

The Depositary, its parent, affiliate, or subsidiaries, any Depositary’s Agent, and any Registrar or Transfer Agent may own, buy, sell or deal in any class of securities of the Company and its affiliates and in Receipts or Depositary Shares or become pecuniarily interested in any transaction in which the Company or its affiliates may be interested or contract with or lend money to or otherwise act as fully or as freely as if it were not the Depositary or the Depositary’s Agent hereunder. The Depositary may also act as transfer agent or registrar of any of the securities of the Company and its affiliates or act in any other capacity for the Company or its affiliates. The Depositary may be or become an affiliate of the Company.

It is intended that neither the Depositary nor any Depositary’s Agent shall be deemed to be an “issuer” of the securities under the federal securities laws or applicable state securities laws, it being expressly understood and agreed that the Depositary and any Depositary’s Agent are acting only in a ministerial capacity as Depositary for the deposited Preferred Stock; provided, however, that the Depositary agrees to comply with all tax information reporting and withholding requirements applicable to it under law or this Deposit Agreement in its capacity as Depositary.

Neither the Depositary (or its officers, directors, employees, agents or affiliates, other than the Company) nor any Depositary’s Agent makes any representation or has any responsibility as to the validity of the deposited Preferred Stock or any instruments referred to therein, or as to the correctness of any statement made therein or herein; provided, however, that the Depositary is responsible for its representations in this Deposit Agreement.

In the event the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent or any Registrar or Transfer Agent believes any ambiguity or uncertainty exists in any notice, instruction, direction, request or other communication, paper or document received by it pursuant to this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, Transfer Agent or Registrar shall promptly notify the Company of the details of such alleged ambiguity or uncertainty, and may, in its reasonable discretion, refrain from taking any action, and the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, Transfer Agent or Registrar shall be fully protected and shall incur no liability to any person from refraining from taking such action, absent bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct, unless and until (i) the rights of all parties have been fully and finally adjudicated by a court of appropriate jurisdiction or (ii) the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, Transfer Agent or Registrar receives written instructions with respect to such matter signed by the Company that eliminates such ambiguity or uncertainty to the satisfaction of the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, Transfer Agent or Registrar.

Whenever in the performance of its duties under this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, Transfer Agent or Registrar shall deem it necessary or desirable that any fact or matter be proved or established by the Company prior to taking, suffering or omitting to take any action hereunder, such fact or matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively provided and established by a certificate signed by any one of the President, any Vice President, the Treasurer, any Assistant Treasurer, the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, Transfer Agent or Registrar; and such certificate shall be full and complete authorization and protection to the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, Transfer Agent or Registrar and the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, Transfer Agent or Registrar shall incur no liability for or in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it under the provisions of this Deposit Agreement in reliance upon such

18

certificate. The Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, Transfer Agent or Registrar shall not be liable for or by reason of any of the statements of fact or recitals contained in this Deposit Agreement or in the Receipts (except its countersignature thereof) or be required to verify the same, but all such statements and recitals are and shall be deemed to have been made by the Company only.

The Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, Transfer Agent or Registrar will not be under any duty or responsibility to ensure compliance with any applicable federal or state securities laws in connection with the issuance, transfer or exchange of the Receipts, Preferred Stock or Depositary Shares.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no amendment to the Certificate of Amendment shall affect the rights, duties, obligations or immunities of the Depositary, Transfer Agent, the Depositary’s Agent or Registrar hereunder.

The Depositary, Transfer Agent and any Registrar hereunder:

(i) shall have no duties or obligations other than those specifically set forth herein (and no implied duties, including fiduciary duties, or obligations), or as may subsequently be agreed to in writing by the parties;

(ii) shall have no obligation to make any payment hereunder unless the Company shall have provided the necessary federal or other immediately available funds or securities or property, as the case may be, to pay in full amounts due and payable with respect thereto, and shall have no obligation to spend or risk its own funds;

(iii) shall not be obligated to take any legal or other action hereunder; if, however, the Depositary determines to take any legal or other action hereunder, and, where the taking of such action might in the Depositary’s judgment subject or expose it to any expense or liability, the Depositary shall not be required to act unless it shall have been furnished with an indemnity satisfactory to it;

(iv) may rely on and shall be authorized and protected in acting upon any certificate, instrument, opinion, notice, letter, facsimile transmission or other document or security delivered to the Depositary and believed by the Depositary to be genuine and to have been signed by the proper party or parties, and shall have no responsibility for determining the accuracy thereof;

(v) may rely on and shall be authorized and protected in acting upon the written, telephonic, electronic and oral instructions, with respect to any matter relating to the Depositary’s actions as depositary covered by this Deposit Agreement (or supplementing or qualifying any such actions) of officers of the Company;

(vi) may consult counsel satisfactory to it, and the advice of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by the Depositary hereunder in accordance with the advice of such counsel;

19

(vii) shall not be called upon at any time to advise any person with respect to the Depositary Shares or Receipts;

(viii) shall not be liable or responsible for any recital or statement contained in any documents relating hereto or the Depositary Shares or Receipts;

(ix) shall not be liable in any respect on account of the identity, authority or rights of the parties (other than with respect to the Depositary) executing or delivering or purporting to execute or deliver this Deposit Agreement or any documents or papers deposited or called for under this Deposit Agreement;

(x) shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless the Depositary or such Responsible Officer was grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

(xi) shall not be liable in any respect for the acts or omissions of its agents, including DTC or of the Company.

The obligations of the Company set forth in this Section 5.3 shall survive the replacement, removal or resignation of any Depositary, Registrar, Transfer Agent or Depositary’s Agent or termination of this Deposit Agreement. The Transfer Agent and Registrar and each other agent appointed hereunder shall be entitled to the same rights, protections, indemnities and immunities as the Depositary is entitled to pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 5.4. Liability for Making Distributions.

The Depositary shall not be liable for any delay in making any distributions as a result of such property to be distributed not being eligible to be distributed through the facilities of DTC, and the Depositary shall have no duty to cause such property to become eligible for distribution through the facilities of DTC.

To the extent any provision of this Deposit Agreement is inconsistent with or cannot be performed by the Depositary as a result of, any procedures, rules or regulations of DTC, such procedure, rule or regulation of DTC shall control and the Depositary shall not be liable to any holder of Receipts or any other person hereunder for the Depositary’s good faith efforts to follow such procedure, rule or regulation of DTC.

Section 5.5. Resignation and Removal of the Depositary; Appointment of Successor Depositary.

The Depositary may at any time resign as Depositary hereunder by notice of its election to do so delivered to the Company, such resignation to take effect upon the appointment of a successor depositary and its acceptance of such appointment as hereinafter provided.

The Depositary may at any time be removed by the Company by notice of such removal delivered to the Depositary, such removal to take effect upon the appointment of a successor depositary and its acceptance of such appointment as hereinafter provided.

20

In case at any time the Depositary acting hereunder shall resign or be removed, the Company shall, within 60 days after the delivery of the notice of resignation or removal, as the case may be, appoint a successor depositary, which shall be an entity having its principal office in the United States of America and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If a successor depositary shall not have been appointed and have accepted appointment in 60 days, the resigning Depositary may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor depositary. Every successor depositary shall execute and deliver to its predecessor and to the Company an instrument in writing accepting its appointment hereunder, and thereupon such successor depositary, without any further act or deed, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor and for all purposes shall be the Depositary under this Deposit Agreement, and such predecessor, upon payment of all sums due it and on the written request of the Company, shall promptly execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor all rights and powers of such predecessor hereunder, shall duly assign, transfer and deliver all rights, title and interest in the deposited Preferred Stock and any moneys or property held hereunder to such successor and shall deliver to such successor a list of the record holders of all outstanding Receipts and such other records, books, and other information in its possession relating thereto. Any successor Depositary shall promptly mail (or, if applicable, for a DTC Receipt, provide to DTC in accordance with DTC’s procedures) notice of its appointment to the record holders of Receipts.

Any corporation or other entity into or with which the Depositary may be merged, consolidated or converted, or any corporation or other entity to which all or a substantial part of the corporate trust business of the Depositary may be transferred, shall be the successor of such Depositary without the execution or filing of any document or any further act. Such successor depositary may execute the Receipts either in the name of the predecessor depositary or in the name of the successor depositary.

The provisions of this Section 5.5 as they apply to the Depositary apply to the Registrar and Transfer Agent, as if specifically enumerated herein.

Section 5.6. Indemnification by the Company.

The Company shall indemnify the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent and any Transfer Agent or Registrar, and their officers, directors, employees and agents against, and hold each of them harmless from, any loss, liability, damage, cost or expense (including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending itself) which may arise out of (i) acts performed or omitted in connection with this Deposit Agreement and the Receipts, (a) by the Depositary, any Transfer Agent or Registrar or any of their respective agents (including any Depositary’s Agent), except for any liability arising out of gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on the respective parts of any such person or persons, or (b) by the Company or any of its agents, or (ii) the offer, sale or registration of the Receipts or shares of Preferred Stock pursuant to the provisions hereof. The obligations of the Company set forth in this Section 5.6 shall survive the replacement, removal or resignation of any Depositary, Registrar, Transfer Agent or Depositary’s Agent or termination of this Deposit Agreement. Except as provided in Section 3.2, in no event shall the Depositary have any right of setoff or counterclaim against the Depositary Shares or the Preferred Stock.

21

Section 5.7. Fees, Charges and Expenses.

The Company shall pay all transfer and other taxes and governmental charges arising solely from the existence of the depositary arrangements. The Company shall pay all charges of the Depositary in connection with the initial deposit of the Preferred Stock and the initial issuance of the Depositary Shares and any redemption of the Preferred Stock at the option of the Company. All other transfer and other taxes and governmental charges and fees for the withdrawal of Preferred Stock upon surrender of Receipts shall be at the expense of holders of Depositary Shares. If, at the request of a holder of Receipts, the Depositary incurs charges or expenses for which it is not otherwise liable hereunder, such holder will be liable for such charges and expenses. All other fees, charges and expenses of the Depositary and any Depositary’s Agent hereunder and of any Registrar and Transfer Agent (including, in each case, fees and expenses of counsel) incident to the performance of their respective obligations hereunder will be paid upon consultation and agreement between the Depositary and the Company. The Depositary shall present its statement for charges and expenses to the Company once every three months or at such other intervals as the Company and the Depositary may agree. The obligations set forth in this Section 5.7 shall survive the replacement, removal or resignation of any Depositary, Registrar, Transfer Agent or Depositary’s Agent or the termination of this Deposit Agreement.

ARTICLE VI

AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

Section 6.1. Amendment.

The form of the Receipts and any provision of this Deposit Agreement may at any time and from time to time be amended by agreement between the Company and the Depositary without the consent of holders of Receipts in any respect that the Company and the Depositary may deem necessary or desirable; provided, however, that no such amendment (other than any change in the fees of any Depositary, Depositary’s Agent, Registrar or Transfer Agent that are payable by the Company) which (i) shall materially and adversely alter the rights of the holders of Receipts or (ii) would be materially and adversely inconsistent with the rights granted to the holders of the Preferred Stock pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation shall be effective unless such amendment shall have been approved by the holders of Receipts evidencing at least a majority of the Depositary Shares then outstanding. In no event shall any amendment impair the right, subject to the provisions of Section 2.6 and Section 2.7 and Article III, of any holder of any Receipts evidencing such Depositary Shares to surrender any Receipt with instructions to the Depositary to deliver to the holder the deposited Preferred Stock and all money and other property, if any, represented thereby, except in order to comply with mandatory provisions of applicable law. Every holder of an outstanding Receipt at the time any such amendment becomes effective shall be deemed, by continuing to hold such Receipt, to consent and agree to such amendment and to be bound by this Deposit Agreement as amended thereby.

22

Section 6.2. Termination.

This Deposit Agreement may be terminated by the Company at any time upon not less than 60 days’ prior written notice to the Depositary, in which case, at least 30 days prior to the date fixed in such notice for such termination, at the written request and cost of the Company, the Depositary will mail (or, if applicable, for a DTC Receipt, provide to DTC in accordance with DTC’s procedures) notice, prepared by the Company, of such termination to the record holders of all Receipts then outstanding.

If any Receipts shall remain outstanding after the date of termination of this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary thereafter shall discontinue the transfer of Receipts, shall suspend the distribution of dividends to the holders thereof and shall not give any further notices (other than notice of such termination) or perform any further acts under this Deposit Agreement, except that the Depositary shall continue to collect dividends and other distributions pertaining to Preferred Stock, shall sell rights, preferences or privileges as provided in this Deposit Agreement and shall continue to deliver the Preferred Stock and any money and other property, if any, represented by Receipts upon surrender thereof by the holders thereof. At any time after the expiration of two years from the date of termination, the Depositary may sell Preferred Stock then held hereunder at public or private sale, in accordance with applicable law, at such places and upon such terms as it deems proper and may thereafter hold the net proceeds of any such sale, together with any money and other property held by it hereunder, without liability for interest, for the benefit, pro rata in accordance with their holdings, of the holders of Receipts that have not theretofore been surrendered. After making such sale, the Depositary shall be discharged from all obligations under this Deposit Agreement except to account for such net proceeds and money and other property.

This Agreement may be terminated by the Company or the Depositary if (i) all outstanding Depositary Shares have been redeemed pursuant to Section 2.3, (ii) there shall have been made a final distribution in respect of the Preferred Stock in connection with any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company and such distribution shall have been distributed to the holders of Depositary Shares pursuant to Section 4.1 or Section 4.2, as applicable, or (iii) upon the consent of holders of Depositary Receipts representing not less than two-thirds of the Depositary Shares outstanding.

Upon the termination of this Deposit Agreement, the Company shall be discharged from all obligations under this Deposit Agreement except for its obligations to the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent and any Transfer Agent or Registrar under Sections 5.6 and 5.7.

Exhibit 5.1

[WLRK Letterhead]

July 30, 2019

M&T Bank Corporation

One M&T Plaza

Buffalo, New York 14203

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special counsel to M&T Bank Corporation (the “Company”), a New York corporation, in connection with the offer and sale (the “Offering”) by the Company of 400,000 depositary shares (the “Depositary Shares”), each representing a 1/10th interest in a share of the Company’s Perpetual 5.0% Fixed-Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series G, par value $1.00 and liquidation preference $10,000 per share (the “Preferred Stock”), pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”), dated July 23, 2019, by and among the Company, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, RBC Capital Markets, LLC and UBS Securities LLC, as representatives of the several underwriters named in Schedule A thereto (the “Underwriters”). The Depositary Shares are being offered and sold under a registration statement on Form S-3ASR under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on October 1, 2018 (File No. 333-227644) (the “Registration Statement”), including a base prospectus dated October 1, 2018, and a prospectus supplement dated July 23, 2019 (the “Prospectus Supplement”).

The shares of the Preferred Stock issued and delivered pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement are to be deposited with Wilmington Trust, National Association, acting as depositary (the “Depositary”), pursuant to that certain Deposit Agreement, dated July 30, 2019 the (“Deposit Agreement”), by and among the Company, the Depositary, and the holders from time to time of receipts representing the Depositary Shares described therein.

In rendering this opinion to the Company, we have examined such corporate records and other documents, and we have reviewed such matters of law, as we have deemed necessary or appropriate, including a depositary receipt registered in the name of Cede & Co., relating to the 400,000 Depositary Shares to be issued pursuant to the Deposit Agreement (the “Receipt”), the Deposit Agreement and the Underwriting Agreement, which we refer to herein as the “Transaction Documents”. In rendering this opinion, we have, with your consent, relied upon oral and written representations of officers of the Company and certificates of officers of the Company and public officials with respect to the accuracy of the factual matters addressed in such representations and certificates. In addition, in rendering this opinion we have, with your consent, assumed the genuineness of all signatures or instruments relied upon by us, and the conformity of certified copies submitted to us with the original documents to which such certified copies relate. We have also assumed the valid authorization, execution and delivery of each of the Transaction Documents by each party thereto other than the Company, and we have assumed that each such other party (in the case of parties which are not natural persons) has been duly organized and is validly existing and in good standing under its jurisdiction of organization, that each such other party has the legal capacity, power and authority to perform its obligations thereunder and that each of the Transaction Documents constitutes the valid and binding obligation of all such other parties, enforceable against them in accordance with its terms.

Based on the foregoing, and subject to the qualifications and limitations stated herein, we are of the opinion that:

1. The shares of Preferred Stock issued and delivered pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement have been duly authorized by the Company and, upon payment and delivery in accordance with the Transaction Documents, such Preferred Stock will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

2. The Receipt, when issued by the Depositary against the deposit of the underlying Preferred Stock by the Company in respect thereof in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents, will be legally issued and will entitle the holder thereof to the rights specified in such Receipt and in the Deposit Agreement.

The opinion set forth above is subject to the effects of (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (b) general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (c) an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

This opinion is given on the basis of the statutory laws and judicial decisions in effect, and the facts existing, as of the date hereof. We have not undertaken any obligation to advise you of changes in matters of fact or law which may occur, and we do not opine with respect to any law, regulation, rule or governmental policy which may be enacted or adopted, after the date hereof. This opinion speaks as of its date, and we undertake no (and hereby disclaim any) obligation to update this opinion.

We are members of the Bar of the State of New York, and we have not considered, and we express no opinion as to, the laws of any jurisdiction other than the laws of the State of New York and the federal laws of the United States of America, in each case as in effect on the date hereof.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Commission as an Exhibit to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated July 30, 2019. We also consent to the reference to our firm under the caption “Validity of Securities” in the Prospectus Supplement constituting a part of the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not thereby admit that we are experts within the meaning of Section 11 of the Securities Act or included in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission.
