Item 5.07    Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
M&T Bank Corporation 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders
M&T Bank Corporation (“M&T”) held its 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders on April 15, 2025 (the “Annual Meeting”).
At the Annual Meeting, shareholders approved all of the Board of Directors’ proposals, which included: (i) the election of fourteen (14) directors of M&T, for one-year terms and until their successors have been elected and qualified; (ii) the approval of the 2024 compensation of M&T’s Named Executive Officers; and (iii) the ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm of M&T for the year ending December 31, 2025. Each of the proposals is described in more detail in M&T's 2025 Proxy Statement, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 4, 2025.
The voting results for each proposal, including the votes for and against or withheld, and any abstentions or broker non-votes, are presented below. Abstentions and broker non-votes (if applicable) were counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum was present but were not treated as votes cast. Therefore, abstentions and broker non-votes (if applicable) did not have the effect of a vote for or against such proposal and were not counted in determining the number of votes required for approval.
The following table reflects the tabulation of the final votes with respect to each director who was elected at the Annual Meeting (Proposal 1):
