When identifying FDIC-assisted bank transactions, Lazard and Morgan Stanley considered the public information available with respect to the level of the FDIC’s involvement in a transaction, while considering the fact that certain information about the FDIC’s role in certain transactions is unknown.

In connection with the proposed merger, the Company has filed a definitive proxy statement with the SEC on February 14, 2011, which was included in the registration statement on Form S-4 filed with the SEC on February 7, 2011 by M&T. Investors are urged to read the proxy statement, along with any other relevant documents filed with the SEC, as well as any amendments or supplements to those documents, because those documents do and will contain important information. Free copies of the proxy

statement, as well as other documents relating to this transaction that Wilmington Trust and/or M&T file with the SEC, are and will be available at:

• The SEC’s Web site at www.sec.gov.

• Wilmington Trust’s Web site at www.wilmingtontrust.com, in the Investor Relations section and then under the “SEC Filings” heading.

• M&T’s Web site at www.mtb.com, in the Investor Relations section and then under the “SEC Filings” heading.

Under SEC rules, the directors, executive officers, other members of management, and employees of Wilmington Trust and M&T may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies of Wilmington Trust’s stockholders in connection with the proposed merger. Information regarding the persons who may be considered participants under SEC rules in the solicitation of stockholders in connection with the merger is contained in the proxy statement. Information about Wilmington Trust’s executive officers and directors is in Wilmington Trust’s Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 1, 2011. Information about M&T’s executive officers and directors is in its Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 22, 2011. Free copies of these documents are available on the Web sites listed above.

This current report contains forward-looking statements relating to the potential acquisition of Wilmington Trust by M&T, including the expected date of the transaction’s completion and the potential benefits of the merger. The actual results of the acquisition could vary materially as a result of a number of factors, including:

• The possibility that competing offers will be made.

• The possibility that various closing conditions for the transaction may not be satisfied or waived.

Other factors that may cause actual results to differ materially include those described in the reports Wilmington Trust files from time to time with the SEC, including the annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, and quarterly and current reports on Forms 10-Q and 8-K. These forward-looking statements reflect Wilmington Trust’s expectations as of the date of this filing, and Wilmington Trust undertakes no obligation to update the information provided herein.

Holders of record of Company common stock can vote in person at the special meeting of the Company’s stockholders. If an individual is not a stockholder of record, he or she must obtain a proxy, executed in that individual's favor, from the record holder of those shares of common stock, such as a broker, bank, or other nominee, to be able to vote in person at the special meeting. In order to attend the special meeting, an individual must hold shares of Company common stock in his or her own name or be a beneficial owner of those shares and have a letter from the record holder of those shares confirming that individual’s ownership. In order to be admitted, an individual also must bring a form of personal photo identification.

This current report may contain forward-looking statements that rely on a number of assumptions, estimates, expectations, and assessments of potential developments, and are subject to various risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from expectations. The ability to achieve the results reflected in these statements could be affected adversely by, among other things, the Company’s failure to consummate a change-in-control transaction on a timely basis; additional regulatory restrictions or failure to comply with existing regulatory restrictions; changes in national or regional economic conditions, including continued declines in the collateral values supporting the Company's loans; deterioration in the credit quality of borrowers; changes in the Company's regulatory requirements; downgrades in the Company's credit ratings; changes in conclusions about the realization of deferred tax assets; changes in market interest rates or credit markets generally; fluctuations in

equity or fixed income markets; significant changes in banking laws or regulations; changes in accounting policies, procedures, or guidelines; increased competition for business; higher-than-expected credit losses; the effects of the Company's proposed merger with M&T, and the restrictions on the Company's business contained in the merger agreement; the effects of integrating the Company's businesses with those of M&T after the merger is completed; the effects of integrating acquired entities; a substantial and permanent loss of either client accounts and/or assets under management at Wilmington Trust and/or affiliate money managers Cramer Rosenthal McGlynn and Roxbury Capital Management; changes in the regulatory, judicial, legislative, or tax treatment of business transactions; new litigation or developments in existing litigation; and economic uncertainty created by domestic or foreign unrest, hostilities, terrorism, or war.
