ACQUISITION OF NATIONAL CITY CORPORATION

On December 31, 2008, we acquired National City for approximately $6.1 billion. The total consideration included approximately $5.6 billion of PNC common stock, $150 million of preferred stock, and cash paid to warrant holders by National City.

We completed the acquisition primarily by issuing approximately 95 million shares of PNC common stock. In accordance with purchase accounting methodologies, National City Bank’s balance sheet was adjusted to fair value at which time the bank was under-capitalized from a regulatory perspective. However, PNC’s Consolidated Balance Sheet remained well-capitalized and liquid.

Following the closing, PNC received $7.6 billion from the US Department of the Treasury under the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 in exchange for the issuance of preferred stock and a warrant. These proceeds were used to enhance National City Bank’s regulatory capital position to

well-capitalized in order to continue serving the credit and deposit needs of existing and new customers. On a consolidated basis, these proceeds resulted in further improvement to our capital and liquidity positions.

National City, based in Cleveland, Ohio, was one of the nation’s largest financial services companies. In connection with obtaining regulatory approvals for the acquisition, PNC has agreed to divest 61 of National City Bank’s branches in Western Pennsylvania with deposits of approximately $3.9 billion as of December 31, 2008. We expect to merge National City Bank into PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC Bank, N.A.”) in the fourth quarter of 2009.

National City, based in Cleveland, Ohio, was one of the nation’s largest commercial banking organizations based on assets. We expect to incur total merger and integration costs of approximately $1.2 billion in connection with the acquisition of National City, including $575 million recognized in the fourth quarter of 2008. The transaction is expected to result in the reduction of approximately $1.2 billion of combined company annualized noninterest expense through the elimination of operational and administrative redundancies.

Other than the merger and integration costs discussed above, our acquisition of National City did not impact our 2008 Consolidated Income Statement, nor did it impact our 2008 Average Consolidated Balance Sheet. Note 2 Acquisitions and Divestitures included in our Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements within Item 8 of this Report and our Current Reports on Form 8-K filed October 24, 2008, October 30, 2008, December 23, 2008, and January 2, 2009 provide additional information regarding our acquisition of National City.
