2007 related to Mercantile investment activities. Our unfunded commitments related to other investments totaled $64 million at June 30, 2007 compared with $16 million at December 31, 2006. The amounts of other investments and related unfunded commitments at June 30, 2007 included those related to Steel City Capital Funding LLC (“Steel City”), as further described below.

On March 1, 2007, we entered into a joint venture with a third party to form Steel City for purposes of purchasing and originating second lien loans and turnaround loans. Our primary reason for pursuing this venture was to leverage our strengths of origination and servicing, provide an additional product to our customers, and allow for us to moderate the risks associated with this asset class. Additionally, we will earn fees for portfolio management services. Steel City is a limited liability company in which various PNC subsidiaries hold approximately a 31% equity ownership. At June 30, 2007, our capital contribution to Steel City was approximately $28 million with a commitment to fund an additional $50 million. The third party investor has contributed capital of $63 million with a commitment to fund an additional $112 million. We evaluated the accounting for this transaction under FIN 46R and other appropriate generally accepted accounting principles and determined that our aggregate investment will be accounted for under the equity method as described under Note 1 Accounting Policies in the Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Report. This transaction did not have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations.

One of our subsidiaries acts as manager of Steel City. In this capacity it performs investment management services and administers day-to-day operations for Steel City and is compensated for those services through a monthly management fee. The manager also will receive certain performance-based fees. In addition, one of our subsidiaries is providing Steel City with a line of credit for purposes of short-term working capital needs at current market rates.

PNC Bank, N.A., sold $107 million of loans at fair value to Steel City at the inception of the entity. All the loans sold to Steel City were classified as performing loans. This transfer was treated as a sale for accounting purposes.
