CUSIP No. 493482103 Schedule 13D Page 3 of 21
Item 1. Security and Issuer.
The title of the class of equity securities to which this Schedule 13D
relates is the common stock, par value $2.00 per share, of Keystone Financial,
Inc. ("Keystone"). The address of the principal executive offices of Keystone is
One Keystone Plaza, Front and Market Streets, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania 17105.
Item 2. Identity and Background.
This statement is filed on behalf of M&T Bank Corporation (" M&T"). M&T
is a New York corporation with its principal executive offices at One M&T Plaza,
Buffalo, New York 14203. M&T is registered as a bank holding company under the
Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, and is principally engaged in the
business of managing and controlling banks and activities closely related to
banking.
Filed as Schedule I to this Schedule 13D is a list of the executive
officers and directors of M&T containing the following information with respect
to each such person: (a) name, (b) business address and (c) present principal
occupation or employment, and the name and, if different than such person's
business address, the address of any corporation or other organization in which
such employment is conducted. Each person listed in Schedule I is a United
States citizen, except for Patrick W.E. Hodgson, who is a citizen of Canada, and
Jorge G. Pereira, who is a citizen of Portugal.
During the past five years, neither M&T nor, to the best of M&T's
knowledge, any person named in Schedule I: (i) has been convicted in a criminal
proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors), or (ii) has
been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of
competent jurisdiction and as a result was or is subject to a judgment, decree
or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating
activities subject to, federal or state securities laws, or finding any
violation with respect to such laws.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
Pursuant to a Stock Option Agreement dated as of May 16, 2000 ("Option
Agreement"), Keystone has granted to M&T an option ("Option") to purchase up to
9,730,070 shares of common stock, par value $2.00 per share, of Keystone
("Keystone Common Stock") at a price of $15.125 per share, subject to adjustment
as provided therein. The aggregate amount of funds required to exercise the
Option in full at an exercise price of $15.125 per share would be $147,167,309.
If and when the Option is exercised, M&T's source of funds will be either
working capital or funds borrowed from one or more banks in the ordinary course
of business; the identity of such bank or banks has not yet been determined.

CUSIP No. 493482103 Schedule 13D Page 4 of 21
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
On May 16, 2000, M&T, Olympia Financial Corp., a wholly owned
subsidiary of M&T ("Merger Sub") and Keystone entered into an Agreement and Plan
of Reorganization ("Reorganization Agreement") that provides that Keystone shall
be acquired by M&T through the merger ("Merger") of Keystone with and into
Merger Sub, with Merger Sub as the surviving corporation (the "Surviving
Corporation") pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Plan of Merger,"
and, together with the Reorganization Agreement, the "Merger Agreements").
At the Effective Time (as defined in the Plan of Merger), all of the
shares of capital stock of Keystone shall, by virtue of the Merger, be converted
into the right to receive the consideration described below and all of the
shares of capital stock of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior
to the Effective Time shall constitute all of the then-issued and outstanding
shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation. The Surviving Corporation
shall remain a wholly-owned subsidiary of M&T.
Following the consummation of the Merger, Keystone Financial Bank, N.A.
("Keystone Bank"), a national banking association subsidiary of Keystone shall
merge with and into Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company, a New
York-chartered bank and wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of M&T ("M&T Bank"),
pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger in a form to be specified by M&T.
Under the Plan of Merger, and subject to the other provisions therein,
each share of Keystone Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to
the Effective Date shall, by virtue of the Merger, automatically and without any
action on the part of the holder thereof, become and be converted into (i) the
right to receive $21.50 in cash without interest or (ii) the right to receive
0.05 of a share of common stock, par value $5.00 per share, of M&T ("M&T Common
Stock") (before giving effect to the Stock Split (as defined in the
Reorganization Agreement)). Subject to possible adjustments set forth in the
Plan of Merger, the total number of shares of Keystone Common Stock to be
converted into shares of common stock of M&T in the acquisition shall be 65% of
the 48,930,000 shares of Keystone Common Stock outstanding on May 16, 2000, less
the aggregate number of shares of Keystone Common Stock acquired by M&T or
Keystone prior to the effective date of the Merger. The right to receive shares
of M&T Common Stock is subject to the allocation and election procedures set
forth in the Plan of Merger. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no conversion shall
be made in respect of any share of Keystone Common Stock the holder of which,
pursuant to any applicable law providing for dissenters' or appraisal rights is
entitled to receive payment in accordance with the provisions of any such law,
such holder to have only the rights provided in any such law.
M&T and Keystone have entered into the Option Agreement as a condition
to M&T's entering into the Reorganization Agreement and to facilitate the
consummation of the Merger, the Bank Merger and the other transactions
contemplated by the Reorganization Agreement and Plan of Merger (collectively,
the "Transactions").
<PAGE>
CUSIP No. 493482103 Schedule 13D Page 5 of 21
Consummation of the Transactions is subject to among other things,
receipt of all necessary shareholder and government approvals. Upon consummation
of the Transactions, the separate corporate existence of Keystone shall cease,
and all outstanding shares of Keystone Common Stock (other than shares held by
Keystone shareholders who exercise dissenters' rights, if any are available, and
except as otherwise provided in the Reorganization Agreement) will be converted
into M&T Common Stock and cash in lieu of any fractional interest, or cash
pursuant to the allocation and election procedures set forth in the Plan of
Merger. As a result, Keystone Common Stock will cease to be authorized and
quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities
association and will become eligible for termination of registration pursuant to
Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act").
M&T and/or, with M&T's consent, Keystone may purchase shares of
Keystone Common Stock in the open market or private transactions prior to the
consummation of the Transactions. M&T currently is considering the feasibility
of doing so and may undertake such transactions at the conclusion of such
consideration, either through purchases in the open market or in privately
negotiated transactions.
In connection with the Merger, certain subsidiaries of Keystone may
merge with certain subsidiaries of M&T.
Except as otherwise set forth in Items 4, 5 and 6 hereof, M&T does not
now have any plans or proposals which relate to or would result in (i) the
acquisition by any person of additional securities of Keystone, or the
disposition of securities of Keystone; (ii) an extraordinary corporate
transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving Keystone
or any of its subsidiaries; (iii) any change in the present Board of Directors
or management of Keystone, including any change in the number or term of
Keystone directors or the filling of any existing vacancies on the Board of
Directors of Keystone; (iv) any material change in the present capitalization or
dividend policy of Keystone; (v) any other material change in the business or
corporate structure of Keystone; (vi) changes in Keystone's charter, bylaws or
instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the
acquisition of control of Keystone by any person; (vii) causing a class of
securities of Keystone to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to
cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a
registered national securities association; or (viii) a class of equity
securities of Keystone becoming eligible for termination of registration
pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Exchange Act.

CUSIP No. 493482103 Schedule 13D Page 6 of 21
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
The 9,730,070 of Keystone Common Stock subject to the Option represent
approximately 16.6% of the shares of Keystone Common Stock that would be issued
and outstanding upon exercise of the Option in full (including the shares issued
upon exercise of the Option). Unless and until the Option is exercised, M&T
disclaims beneficial ownership of the Keystone Common Stock subject to the
Option.
Except as otherwise described herein, neither M&T, nor, to the best of
M&T's knowledge, any of the persons listed on Schedule I hereto, beneficially
owns any shares of Keystone Common Stock. M&T Bank is custodian of custodial
accounts holding in the aggregate 3,300 shares of Keystone Common Stock and has
sole voting power with respect to such shares. In addition, Mr. Peter J.
O'Donnell, Jr., a director of M&T and a person listed on Schedule I hereto,
currently beneficially owns one (1) share of Keystone Common Stock. Other than
as described in this Schedule 13D, no transactions in Keystone Common Stock were
effected during the past 60 days by M&T, or, to the best of M&T's knowledge, by
any of the persons listed on Schedule I hereto.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect
to Securities of the Issuer.
Option Agreement
Set forth below is a description of selected provisions of the Option
Agreement. Such description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
copy of the Option Agreement filed as an Exhibit to M&T's Current Report on Form
8-K filed on May 23, 2000.
Under the Option Agreement, Keystone granted M&T an option (the
"Option") to purchase up to 9,730,070 shares of Keystone Common Stock at a
purchase price of $15.125 per share. The Option Agreement was executed to
facilitate the Transactions. M&T, or any other Holder (as defined in the Option
Agreement), may exercise the Option, in whole or in part, and from time to time,
if both an Initial Triggering Event (as defined herein) and a Subsequent
Triggering Event (as defined herein) shall have occurred after the execution of
the Option Agreement and prior to the occurrence of an Exercise Termination
Event (as defined herein).
The term "Initial Triggering Event" shall mean any of the following
events or transactions occurring after the execution of the Option Agreement:
(a) Keystone or any of its Subsidiaries (each an "Keystone
Subsidiary"), without having received M&T's prior written consent, shall have
entered into an agreement to engage in an Acquisition Transaction (as defined
herein) with any person other than M&T or any of its Subsidiaries (each an "M&T
Subsidiary");
<PAGE>
CUSIP No. 493482103 Schedule 13D Page 7 of 21
(b) Keystone or any of its Subsidiaries, without having received M&T's
prior written consent, shall have authorized, recommended, proposed, or publicly
announced its intention to authorize, recommend or propose to engage in an
Acquisition Transaction with any person other than M&T or a Subsidiary of M&T;
(c) any person (other than M&T or any M&T Subsidiary) shall have
acquired beneficial ownership or the right to acquire beneficial ownership of
10% or more of the outstanding shares of Keystone Common Stock or any person
other than M&T or an M&T Subsidiary shall have commenced, or shall have filed or
publicly disseminated a registration statement or similar disclosure statement
with respect to, a tender offer or exchange offer to purchase any shares of
Keystone Common Stock such that, upon consummation of such offer, such person
would own or control 10% or more of the then outstanding shares of Keystone
Common Stock (such an offer being referred to herein as a "Tender Offer" or an
"Exchange Offer," respectively);
(d) the holders of Keystone Common Stock shall not have approved the
Merger Agreements and the transactions contemplated thereby, at the meeting of
such stockholders held for the purpose of voting on such agreement, such meeting
shall not have been held or shall have been cancelled prior to termination of
the Merger Agreements, or the Board of Directors of Keystone shall have publicly
withdrawn or modified, or publicly announced its intent to withdraw or modify,
in any manner adverse to M&T, its recommendation that the stockholders of
Keystone approve the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreements, in each
case after it shall have been publicly announced that any person other than M&T
or any M&T Subsidiary shall have made, or disclosed an intention to make, a
proposal to engage in an Acquisition Transaction, commenced a Tender Offer, or
filed or publicly disseminated a registration statement or similar disclosure
statement with respect to an Exchange Offer, or filed an application (or given a
notice), whether in draft or final form, under any federal or state banking laws
seeking regulatory approval to engage in an Acquisition Transaction; or
(e) after an overture is made by a third party to Keystone or its
stockholders to engage in an Acquisition Transaction, Keystone shall have
breached any covenant or obligation contained in the Reorganization Agreement
and such breach would entitle M&T to terminate the Merger Agreements and shall
not have been cured prior to the Notice Date (as defined in the Option
Agreement).
An "Acquisition Transaction" shall mean:
(a) a merger or consolidation, or any similar transaction, involving
Keystone or any Significant Subsidiary (as defined in Rule 1-02 of Regulation
S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC")) of
Keystone;
<PAGE>
CUSIP No. 493482103 Schedule 13D Page 8 of 21
(b) a purchase, lease or other acquisition or assumption of all or a
substantial portion of the assets or deposits of Keystone or any Significant
Subsidiary of Keystone;
(c) a purchase or other acquisition (including by way of merger,
consolidation, share exchange or otherwise) of securities representing 10% or
more of the voting power of Keystone; or
(d) any substantially similar transaction; provided, however, that in
no event shall any merger, consolidation, purchase or similar transaction
involving only Keystone and one or more of its Subsidiaries or involving only
two or more of such Subsidiaries, be deemed to be an Acquisition Transaction,
provided that any such transaction is not entered into in violation of the terms
of the Merger Agreements.
A "Subsequent Triggering Event" shall mean either of the following
events or transactions occurring after the execution of the Option Agreement:
(a) the acquisition by any person of beneficial ownership of 25% or
more of the then outstanding shares of Keystone Common Stock; or
(b) the occurrence of the Initial Triggering Event described above in
clause (a) of the paragraph defining Initial Trigger Events, except that the
percentage referred to in clause (c) of the paragraph defining Acquisition
Transactions shall be 25%.
The Option may be exercised in whole or in part, and from time to time,
if both an Initial Triggering Event and a Subsequent Triggering Event shall have
occurred; provided that, to the extent that the Option shall not have been
exercised it shall terminate and be of no further force and effect upon the
occurrence of an Exercise Termination Event. Each of the following shall be an
"Exercise Termination Event":
(a) the Effective Time (as defined in the Plan of Merger) of the
Merger;
(b) termination of the Merger Agreements in accordance with the
provisions thereof if such termination occurs prior to the occurrence of an
Initial Triggering Event except a termination by M&T pursuant to Section
6.1(b)(i) of the Reorganization Agreement, which allows M&T or Keystone to
terminate the Merger Agreements if the other has breached in any material
respect any covenant or agreement contained in the Reorganization Agreement or
Plan of Merger, unless the breach by Keystone giving rise to such right of
termination is non-volitional; or
(c) the passage of 12 months after termination of the Merger Agreements
if such termination follows the occurrence of an Initial Triggering Event or is
a termination by M&T
<PAGE>
CUSIP No. 493482103 Schedule 13D Page 9 of 21
pursuant to Section 6.1(b)(i) of the Reorganization Agreement, unless the breach
by Keystone giving rise to such right of termination is non-volitional.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Option
Agreement, the Option may not be exercised (nor may M&T's rights under Section
10 of the Option Agreement, as defined therein, be exercised) at any time when
M&T shall be in willful breach of any of its covenants or agreements contained
in the Merger Agreements under circumstances that would entitle Keystone to
terminate the Merger Agreements without regard to any grace period provided for
in the Reorganization Agreement.
In the event that any additional shares of Keystone Common Stock are
either (i) issued or otherwise become outstanding after the date of the Option
Agreement (other than pursuant to the Option Agreement or as permitted under the
terms of the Merger Agreements) or (ii) redeemed, repurchased, retired or
otherwise cease to be outstanding after the date of the Option Agreement, the
number of shares of Keystone Common Stock subject to the option shall be
increased or decreased, as appropriate, so that, after such issuance, such
number equals 19.9% of the number of shares of Keystone Common Stock then issued
and outstanding without giving effect to any shares subject to or issued
pursuant to the Option. In addition, in the event of any change in, or
distributions in respect of, Keystone Common Stock by reason of stock dividends,
split-ups, mergers, recapitalizations, combinations, subdivisions, conversions,
exchanges of shares, distributions on or in respect of, Keystone Common Stock
that would be prohibited under the terms of the Merger Agreements, or the like,
the Option and the Option Price shall be appropriately adjusted in such manner
as shall fully preserve the economic benefits provided under the Option
Agreement and proper provision shall be made in any agreement governing any such
transaction to provide for such proper adjustment and the full satisfaction of
Keystone's obligations under the Option Agreement.
The Option Agreement also provides that upon the occurrence of a
Subsequent Triggering Event that occurs prior to an Exercise Termination Event,
Keystone shall repurchase the Option from any Holder, upon their request within
thirty days of such occurrence (or a later period as specified by the Option
Agreement), at a price equal to the Option Repurchase Price (as defined herein).
Additionally, the Option Agreement provides that upon the occurrence of a
Subsequent Triggering Event that occurs prior to an Exercise Termination Event,
Keystone shall repurchase the Option Shares from any Owner of the Option Shares
("Owner"), upon their request within thirty days of such occurrence (or a later
period as specified by the Option Agreement), at a price equal to the Option
Share Repurchase Price (as defined herein).
The "Option Repurchase Price" shall equal the amount by which (A) the
market/offer price (as defined herein) exceeds (B) the Option Price, multiplied
by the number of shares for which the Option may then be exercised, plus, to the
extent not previously reimbursed, M&T's reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by,
<PAGE>
CUSIP No. 493482103 Schedule 13D Page 10 of 21
and the enforcement of, M&T's rights under the Merger Agreements, including
without limitation legal, accounting and investment banking fees ("M&T's
Out-of-Pocket Expenses").
The "Option Share Repurchase Price" shall equal the greater of (A) the
market/offer price and (B) the average exercise price per share paid by the
owner for the Option Shares so designated, plus, to the extent not previously
reimbursed, M&T's Out-of-Pocket Expenses.
The term "market/offer price" shall equal the highest of (A) the price
per share of Keystone Common Stock at which a tender offer or exchange offer
therefor has been made, (B) the price per share of the Common Stock to be paid
by any person, other than M&T or a subsidiary of M&T, pursuant to an agreement
with Keystone, (C) the highest closing price for shares of Keystone Common Stock
within the six month period immediately preceding the required repurchase of
Options or Option Shares, as the case may be, or (D) in the event of a sale of
all or substantially all of Keystone's assets, the sum of the price paid in such
sale for such assets and the current market value of the remaining assets of
Keystone as determined by a nationally recognized investment banking firm
selected by a majority in the interest of the Holders or the Owners, as the case
may be, and reasonably acceptable to Keystone, divided by the number of shares
of Keystone Common Stock outstanding at the time of such sale. In determining
the market/offer price, the value of consideration other than cash shall be
determined by a nationally recognized investment banking firm selected by a
majority in interest of the Holders or the Owners, as the case may be, and
reasonably acceptable to Keystone.
Merger Agreements
Set forth below is a description of selected provisions of the Merger
Agreements. Such description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
copy of the Merger Agreements filed as Exhibits to M&T's Current Report on Form
8-K filed on May 23, 2000.
The Merger Agreements provide that Keystone shall be acquired by M&T
through the merger of Keystone with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub as the
Surviving Corporation pursuant to the Plan of Merger. At the Effective Time (as
defined in the Plan of Merger), all of the shares of capital stock of Keystone
shall, by virtue of the Merger, be converted into the right to receive the
consideration described in Item 4 and all of the shares of capital stock of
Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall
constitute all of the then-issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the
Surviving Corporation. The Surviving Corporation shall remain a wholly-owned
subsidiary of M&T.
Following the consummation of the Merger, Keystone Bank shall merge
with and into M&T Bank, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger in a form to
be specified by M&T.
Each record holder of shares of Keystone Common Stock will be entitled
to elect to receive cash for all of such shares (as described in Item 4 herein),
to elect to receive M&T
<PAGE>
CUSIP No. 493482103 Schedule 13D Page 11 of 21
Common Stock for all such shares (as described in Item 4 herein) or to indicate
that such record holder has no preference as to the receipt of cash or M&T
Common Stock for such shares. Subject to possible adjustments set forth in the
Plan of Merger, the total number of shares of Keystone Common Stock to be
converted into shares of common stock of M&T in the acquisition shall be 65% of
the 48,930,000 shares of Keystone Common Stock outstanding on May 16, 2000, less
the aggregate number of shares of Keystone Common Stock acquired by M&T or
Keystone prior to the effective date of the Merger. The right to receive shares
of M&T Common Stock is subject to the allocation and proration procedures set
forth in the Plan of Merger.
Each holder of an option granted by Keystone to purchase shares of
Keystone Common Stock which is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to
the Effective Time (whether vested or not), will be assumed by M&T. Each Seller
Option (as defined in the Plan of Merger) so assumed by M&T shall continue to
have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions set forth in the Seller
Stock Option Plan (as defined in the Plan of Merger) (and any agreement) under
which it was granted and as in existence immediately prior to the Effective
Time, except that such Seller Option shall be exercisable (when vested) for that
number of whole shares of Keystone Common Stock equal to the product of the
number of shares of Keystone Common Stock covered by the Seller Option
multiplied by the Exchange Ratio (as defined in the Plan of Merger), provided
that any fractional shares of Keystone Common Stock resulting from such
multiplication shall be rounded down to the nearest share, and the exercise
price per share of Keystone Common Stock shall be equal to the exercise price
per share of Keystone Common Stock of such Seller Option divided by the Exchange
Ratio, provided that such exercise be rounded up to the nearest cent.
Prior to the Closing Date, as defined in the Reorganization Agreement,
and except as otherwise provided for by the Merger Agreements or consented to or
approved by M&T, Keystone and any Keystone Subsidiary (as defined in the
Reorganization Agreement) shall use their respective reasonable best efforts in
good faith to (i) take or cause to be taken all action necessary or desirable on
its part so as to permit consummation of the Transactions at the earliest
possible date; (ii) take or cause to be taken all action necessary or desirable
to preserve their respective properties, business and relationships with
customers, employees and other persons; and (iii) not take or cause, nor to the
best of its ability, permit any action that would substantially impair the
prospects of completing the Transactions pursuant to the Merger Agreements.
Except with prior written consent of M&T or except as previously disclosed or
except as expressly contemplated or permitted by the Merger Agreements, Keystone
shall not, and shall not permit any of the Keystone Subsidiaries to:
(1) carry on its business other than in the usual, regular and ordinary
course in substantially the same manner as heretofore conducted;
<PAGE>
CUSIP No. 493482103 Schedule 13D Page 12 of 21
(2) in the case of Keystone only, declare, set aside, make or pay any
dividend or other distribution in respect of its capital stock other than its
regular quarterly cash dividends on Keystone Common Stock in amounts not in
excess of $.29 per share;
(3) issue any shares of its capital stock or permit any treasury shares
to become outstanding other than pursuant to the Option Agreement or outstanding
Rights;

borrowed money other than in the ordinary course of business consistent with

capital stock (subject to the exceptions in the Plan of Merger);
(6) amend its articles or certificate of incorporation or association;
impose, or suffer the imposition, on any share of stock of any Keystone
Subsidiary held by Keystone of any lien, charge or encumbrance, or permit any
such lien, charge or encumbrance to exist;

permit any other corporation, savings association or bank to merge into it or
consolidate with any other corporation, savings association or bank; acquire
control over any other firm, bank, corporation, savings association or
organization; or create any subsidiary;
(8) except in the ordinary course of business, waive or release any
material right or cancel or compromise any material debt or claim;
(9) liquidate or sell or dispose of any assets or acquire any assets;

in the aggregate; establish new branches or other similar facilities or enter
into or modify any leases or other contracts relating thereto;
(10) increase the rate of compensation of, pay or agree to pay any

other material banking policies in any material respect except as may be

(13) authorize or permit any of its officers, directors, employees or
agents to directly or indirectly solicit, initiate or encourage any inquiries
relating to, or the making of any proposal which constitutes, a "Takeover
Proposal" (as defined in the Reorganization Agreement), or, except to the extent
legally required for the discharge of the fiduciary duties of its Board of
Directors, recommend or endorse any takeover proposal, or participate in any
discussion or negotiations, or provide third parties with any nonpublic
information, relating to any such inquiry or proposal or otherwise facilitate
any effort or attempt to make or implement a takeover proposal; provided,
however, that Keystone may communicate information about any such takeover
proposal to its stockholders if, in the judgment of Keystone's Board of
Directors, after consultation with outside counsel, such communication is
necessary in order to comply with its fiduciary duties to Keystone's
shareholders required under applicable law. Keystone will take all actions
necessary or advisable to inform the appropriate individuals or entities
referred to in the first sentence hereof of the obligations undertaken herein.
Keystone will notify M&T immediately if any such inquiries or takeover proposals
are received by, any such information is requested from, or any such
negotiations or discussions are sought to be initiated or continued with,
Keystone, and Keystone will promptly inform M&T in writing of all of the
relevant details with respect to the foregoing; or
(14) agree to do any of the foregoing.
Both M&T and Keystone have agreed to use all reasonable efforts to
obtain as soon as practicable all consents and approvals of any persons
necessary or desirable for the consummation of the Transactions, including but
not limited to obtaining the approval of the shareholders of Keystone, obtaining
all consents and approvals required of applicable federal and state regulatory
authorities, and furnishing such information as may be required in connection
with the preparation of the proxy statements and the registration statement, if
required. In addition, Keystone has agreed that, if so requested by M&T, it will
take all necessary actions to facilitate the merger of subsidiaries of Keystone
with subsidiaries of M&T or the dissolution of Keystone subsidiaries, effective
at or after the Effective Date; provided however that the Closing Date will not
be delayed in order to facilitate such mergers or dissolutions. Neither M&T nor
Keystone will take any action that would substantially impair the prospects of
completing the Transactions pursuant to the Merger Agreements, or that would
adversely affect the qualification of the Transactions as a reorganization
within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended. In the event that either M&T or Keystone has taken any action that
would adversely affect such qualification, each party shall take such action as
any other party may reasonably request to cure such effect to the extent curable
without a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Reorganization Agreement)
on any of the respective parties.
