Appendix B to the Agreement sets forth certain definitions applicable to the Agreement generally. Appendix C to the Agreement sets forth the performance-based vesting conditions applicable to the Award and certain related definitions. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in the body of this Agreement have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Plan or Appendices A, B or C.

PNC and the Grantee named below (referenced in this Agreement as “you” or “your”) agree as follows:

Subject to your timely acceptance of this Agreement (as described in Section A below), PNC grants to you the Award set forth below, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement.

A.	GRANT AND ACCEPTANCE OF PRSUs
	GRANTEE:	[Name]
	GRANT DATE:	February 11, 2016
	AWARD:	[# Shares] Performance restricted share units (“PRSUs”), each representing a right to receive one Share, and related Dividend Equivalents award, payable in cash.
	AWARD PROGRAM	Senior Leaders Program (Section 16 Executives)
	AWARD ACCEPTANCE; EFFECTIVE DATE	You must accept this Award by delivering an executed unaltered copy of this Agreement to PNC within 30 days of your receipt of this Agreement. Upon such execution and delivery of this Agreement by both you and PNC, this Agreement is effective as of the Grant Date (the “Effective Date”). If you do not properly accept this Award, PNC may, in its sole discretion, cancel the Award at any time thereafter.

B.	VESTING REQUIREMENTS
B.1	An Award becomes vested only upon satisfaction of both the service-based vesting requirements and the performance- based vesting requirements set forth below.
	SERVICE-BASED VESTING REQUIREMENTS:	The Award is divided into four approximately equal portions that will satisfy the service-based vesting requirements ratably over four years (each portion, a “Tranche”) on four “Scheduled Vesting Dates”, as follows: •       the first Tranche will satisfy the service-based vesting requirement on the 1st anniversary of the Grant Date, •       the second Tranche will satisfy the service-based vesting requirement on the 2nd anniversary of the Grant Date,
		•       the third Tranche will satisfy the service-based vesting requirement on the 3rd anniversary of the Grant Date, and
		•       the fourth Tranche will satisfy the service-based vesting requirement on the 4th anniversary of the Grant Date; in each case, provided you remain continuously employed by PNC through and including the date immediately prior to the applicable Scheduled Vesting Date (or such earlier date as prescribed by Section B.2 below).
	PERFORMANCE-BASED VESTING REQUIREMENTS:	Provided the service-based vesting requirements have been met, each Tranche will vest on the applicable Scheduled Vesting Date upon the achievement of the performance goals applicable to that Tranche, as set forth in Appendix C to this Agreement.
B.2	EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT PRIOR TO SCHEDULED VESTING DATE(S) ON VESTING REQUIREMENTS
	RETIREMENT:	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if your employment with PNC is terminated due to your Retirement, and not for Cause, then the service-based vesting requirements of the Award will be satisfied as of your Termination Date, but the Award will not vest until the Scheduled Vesting Date(s), subject to satisfaction of the performance-based vesting requirements and your continued compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

-2-

DISABILITY:	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if your employment with PNC is terminated by PNC due to your Disability, and not for Cause, then the service-based vesting requirements of the Award will be satisfied as of your Termination Date, but the Award will not vest until the Scheduled Vesting Date(s), subject to satisfaction of the performance-based vesting requirements and your continued compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
DEATH:	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if your employment with PNC ceases by reason of your death, or if you die after a termination of employment with PNC due to Disability or Retirement or by reason of an Anticipatory Termination, but prior to a Change of Control or any Scheduled Vesting Date(s), then the service-based requirements of the Award will be satisfied as of your date of death, and the performance-based vesting requirements will be satisfied as further described in Appendix C.
ANTICIPATORY TERMINATION:	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if your termination of employment with PNC is an Anticipatory Termination, then the service-based vesting requirements of the Award will be satisfied as of the Termination Date, but the Award will not vest until the Scheduled Vesting Date(s), subject to satisfaction of the performance-based vesting requirements and your continued compliance with the terms of this Agreement.
TERMINATION FOLLOWING A CHANGE OF CONTROL:	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if you have been continuously employed by PNC, including any successor entity, through the date of a Change of Control, and your employment with PNC is terminated following such Change of Control, but prior to a Scheduled Vesting Date(s), either (a) by PNC other than for Misconduct or (b) by you for Good Reason (a “Qualifying Termination”), then the service-based requirements of the Award will be satisfied as of your Termination Date, and the performance-based vesting requirements will be satisfied with respect to any outstanding Tranches as described in Appendix C. For the avoidance of doubt, upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Award will not become vested until the service-based vesting requirements are satisfied, either as set forth in Section B.1. or as a result of your Retirement, your termination of employment by reason of death, Disability or an Anticipatory Termination or the occurrence of a Qualifying Termination.

C.	FORFEITURE
C.1	FORFEITURE UPON FAILURE TO MEET SERVICE-BASED VESTING REQUIREMENTS:	Except as otherwise provided in Section B.2 above, if you cease to be an employee of PNC prior to an applicable Scheduled Vesting Date, you will not have satisfied the service-based vesting requirements and the outstanding unvested portion of the Award will be forfeited and cancelled without payment of any consideration by PNC as of your Termination Date. Upon such forfeiture or cancellation, neither you nor your successors, heirs, assigns or legal representatives will have any further rights or interest in the Award under the Agreement.
C.2	FORFEITURE IN CONNECTION WITH DETRIMENTAL CONDUCT:	At any time prior to the date that the Award has become vested, to the extent that PNC (acting through a PNC Designated Person) determines in its sole discretion (a) that you have engaged in Detrimental Conduct and (b) to forfeit and cancel (without payment of any consideration by PNC) all or a specified portion of the outstanding unvested Award as a result of such determination, then such portion will be forfeited and cancelled effective as of the date of such determination. Upon such determination, neither you nor your successors, heirs, assigns or legal representatives will have any further rights or interest in the Award under the Agreement.
C.3	FORFEITURE UPON FAILURE TO SATISFY PERFORMANCE CONDITIONS	If the Annual Risk Review Performance Factor (as defined in Appendix C) is determined by the Committee to be 0.00%, that Tranche will be forfeited and cancelled without payment of any consideration by PNC as of the date of such determination. Upon such forfeiture or cancellation, neither you nor your successors, heirs, assigns or legal representatives will have any further rights or interest in the portion of the Award that relates to that Tranche under the Agreement.
D.	DIVIDEND EQUIVALENTS
D.1	GENERALLY	As of the Effective Date, you will be entitled to earn accrued cash Dividend Equivalents on the vested Payout Share Units (defined in Appendix C) for each Tranche, in an amount equal to the cash dividends that would have been paid (without interest or reinvestment) between the Grant Date and the Scheduled Vesting Date for that Tranche (or such earlier date in the event of your death or a Change of Control), as though you were the record holder of such Payout Share Units, and such Payout Share Units had been issued and outstanding shares on the Grant Date

-4-

		through the Scheduled Vesting Date for that Tranche (or such earlier date in the event of your death or a Change of Control).
D.2	ACCRUED DIVIDEND EQUIVALENT PAYMENTS	(a) Generally. Accrued Dividend Equivalents will vest and be paid out in cash, less the payment of any applicable withholding taxes pursuant to Section 6 of Appendix A, if and when the applicable Tranche vests and pays out (at which point such Dividend Equivalents will terminate). Dividend Equivalents are subject to the same vesting requirements and payout size adjustments as the Tranche to which they relate. If the PRSUs to which such Dividend Equivalents relate are forfeited and cancelled, such related Dividend Equivalents will also be forfeited and cancelled without payment of any consideration by PNC. (b) Payment Upon a Change of Control. Accrual of Dividend Equivalents will cease as of the Change of Control. Upon a Change of Control, Dividend Equivalents accrued (without reinvestment or interest) between the Grant Date and the Change of Control will vest and be paid out in cash, less the payment of any applicable withholding taxes pursuant to Section 6 of Appendix A, if and when the applicable Tranche vests and pays out, as if you were the record holder of the number of Shares equal to the number of vested Payout Share Units underlying such Tranche from the Grant Date through the date of the Change of Control.
E.	PAYMENT OF THE AWARD
E.1	PAYMENT TIMING	Except as otherwise provided below, vested Payout Share Units that remain outstanding will be settled as soon as practicable following (i) the applicable Scheduled Vesting Date (and no later than March 15th following the year the Award becomes fully vested), or (ii) your date of death, if your date of death is prior to the applicable Scheduled Vesting Date (and no later than December 31st of the year following the year of your death).
E.2	FORM OF PAYMENT; AMOUNT	(a) Payment Generally Except as provided in subsection (b) below, vested Payout Share Units will be settled at the time set forth in this Section E.1 by delivery to you of that number of whole Shares equal to the number of Payout Share Units less the payment of any applicable withholding taxes pursuant to Section 6 of Appendix A. (b) Payment On or After a Change of Control. Upon vesting on or after a Change of Control, vested

-5-

		Payout Share Units will be settled at the time set forth in Section E.1 by payment to you of cash in an amount equal to that number of whole Shares equal to the number of vested Payout Share Units, multiplied by the then current Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of the Change of Control (subject to any applicable adjustment pursuant to Section 2 of Appendix A) less the payment of any applicable withholding taxes pursuant to Section 6 of Appendix A. Related accrued Dividend Equivalent payments will be paid to you in cash as described in Section D.2(b). No interest will be paid with respect to any such payments made pursuant to this Section E.
F.	RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS	Upon your acceptance of this Award, you shall become subject to the restrictive covenant provisions set forth in Section 1 of Appendix A.
G.	CLAWBACK	The Award, and any right to receive and retain any Shares (if applicable), cash or other value pursuant to the Award, is subject to rescission, cancellation or recoupment, in whole or in part, if and to the extent so provided under PNC’s Incentive Compensation Adjustment and Clawback Policy, as in effect from time to time with respect to the Award, or any other applicable clawback, adjustment or similar policy in effect on or established after the Grant Date and to any clawback or recoupment that may be required by applicable law or regulation. By accepting this Award, you agree that you are obligated to provide all assistance necessary to PNC to recover or recoup the Shares, cash or other value pursuant to the Award which are subject to recovery or recoupment pursuant to applicable law, government regulation, stock exchange listing requirement or PNC policy. Such assistance shall include completing any documentation necessary to recover or recoup the Shares, cash or other value pursuant to the Award from any accounts you maintain with PNC or any pending or future compensation.

ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS

1. Restrictive Covenants. You and PNC acknowledge and agree that you have received adequate consideration with respect to enforcement of the provisions of this Section 1 by virtue of accepting this Award (regardless of whether the Award or any portion thereof is ultimately settled and paid to you); that such provisions are reasonable and properly required for the adequate protection of the business of PNC and its subsidiaries; and that enforcement of such provisions will not prevent you from earning a living.

(a) Non-Solicitation; No-Hire. You agree to comply with the provisions of this Section 1(a) during the period of your employment with PNC and the 12-month period following your Termination Date, regardless of the reason for such termination of employment, as follows:

i. Non-Solicitation. You will not, directly or indirectly, either for your own benefit or purpose or for the benefit or purpose of any Person other than PNC, solicit, call on, do business with, or actively interfere with PNC’s relationship with, or attempt to divert or entice away, any Person that you should reasonably know (A) is a customer of PNC for which PNC provides any services as of your Termination Date, or (B) was a customer of PNC for which PNC provided any services at any time during the 12 months preceding your Termination Date, or (C) was, as of your Termination Date, considering retention of PNC to provide any services.

You will not, directly or indirectly, either for your own benefit or purpose or for the benefit or purpose of any Person other than PNC, employ or offer to employ, call on, or actively interfere with PNC’s relationship with, or attempt to divert or entice away, any employee of PNC. You also will not assist any other Person in such activities.

Notwithstanding Section 1(a)(i) and Section 1(a)(ii) above, if your termination of employment with PNC is an Anticipatory Termination, then commencing immediately after your Termination Date, the provisions of Section 1(a)(i) and Section 1(a)(ii) will no longer apply and will be replaced with the following provision:

“No-Hire. You agree that you will not, for a period of one year after your Termination Date, employ or offer to employ, solicit, actively interfere with PNC’s or any PNC affiliate’s relationship with, or attempt to divert or entice away, any officer of PNC or any affiliate of PNC.”

(b) Confidentiality. During your employment with PNC and thereafter regardless of the reason for termination of such employment, you will not disclose or use in any way any confidential business or technical information or trade secret acquired in the course of such employment, all of which is the exclusive and valuable property of PNC whether or not conceived of or prepared by you, other than (i) information generally known in PNC’s industry or acquired from public sources, (ii) as required in the course of employment by PNC, (iii) as required by any court, supervisory authority, administrative agency or applicable law, or (iv) with the prior written consent of PNC.

(c) Ownership of Inventions. You will promptly and fully disclose to PNC any and all inventions, discoveries, improvements, ideas or other works of inventorship or authorship, whether or not patentable, that have been or will be conceived and/or reduced to practice by you during the term of your employment with PNC, whether alone or with others, and that are (i) related directly or indirectly to the business or activities of PNC or (ii) developed with the use of any time, material, facilities or other resources of PNC (“Developments”). You agree to assign and hereby do assign to PNC or its designee all of your right, title and interest, including copyrights and patent rights, in and to all Developments. You will perform all actions and execute all instruments that PNC or any subsidiary will deem necessary to protect or record PNC’s or its designee’s interests in the Developments. The obligations of this Section 1(c) will be performed by you without further compensation and will continue beyond your Termination Date.

(d) Enforcement Provisions. You understand and agree to the following provisions regarding enforcement of Section 1 of this Agreement:

i. Equitable Remedies. A breach of the provisions of Sections 1(a) – 1(c) will cause PNC irreparable harm, and PNC will therefore be entitled to seek issuance of immediate, as well as permanent, injunctive relief restraining you, and each and every person and entity acting in concert or participating with you, from initiation and/or continuation of such breach.

ii. Tolling Period. If it becomes necessary or desirable for PNC to seek compliance with the provisions of Section 1(a) by legal proceedings, the period during which you will comply with said provisions will extend for a period of 12 months from the date PNC institutes legal proceedings for injunctive or other relief.

iii. Severability. The restrictions and obligations imposed by Sections 1(a) – 1(c) above, Section 1(d)(v)(Waiver of Jury Trial) below and Section 8(b)(Governing Law and Jurisdiction) below are separate and severable, and it is the intent of both parties that if any restriction or obligation imposed by any of these provisions is deemed by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void for any reason whatsoever, the remaining provisions, restrictions and obligations will remain valid and binding upon you.

-2-

iv. Reform. If any of Sections 1(a) – 1(c) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable because unreasonable either as to length of time or area to which the restriction applies, it is the intent of both parties that the court reduce and reform the restriction so as to apply the greatest limitations considered enforceable by the court.

v. Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of you and PNC hereby waives any right to trial by jury with regard to any suit, action or proceeding under or in connection with any of Sections 1(a) – 1(c).

2. Capital Adjustments.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 2(b), if applicable, if any corporate transactions such as stock dividends, stock splits, spin-offs, split offs, recapitalizations, mergers, consolidations or reorganizations of or by PNC (each a “Corporate Transaction”) occur prior to the time, if any, that outstanding vested PRSUs are settled and paid, the Committee or its delegate shall make those adjustments, if any, in the number, class or kind of PRSUs and related Dividend Equivalents then outstanding under the Award that it deems appropriate in its discretion to reflect the Corporate Transaction such that your rights are neither enlarged nor diminished as a result of such Corporate Transaction, including without limitation (i) measuring the value per share unit of any share-denominated award amount authorized for payment to you by reference to the per share value of the consideration payable to a holder of Common Stock in connection with such Corporate Transaction and (ii) with respect to stock-payable PRSUs only, authorizing payment of the entire value of any award amount authorized for payment to you to be paid in cash at the applicable time specified in this Agreement. All determinations hereunder will be made by the Committee or its delegate in its sole discretion and will be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes on all parties, including you.

(b) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, (i) the number, class and kind of PRSUs then outstanding under the Award will automatically be adjusted to reflect the same changes as are made to outstanding shares of Common Stock generally, (ii) the value per share unit of any share-denominated award amount will be measured by reference to the per share value of the consideration payable to a holder of Common Stock in connection with such Corporate Transaction or Transactions if applicable, and (iii) with respect to stock-payable PRSUs only, if the effect of the Corporate Transaction or Transactions on a holder of Common Stock is to convert that shareholder’s holdings into consideration that does not consist solely (other than as to a minimal amount) of shares of Common Stock, then the entire value of any payment to be made to you will be made solely in cash at the applicable time specified in this Agreement.

3. Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares will be delivered to you. If the outstanding vested PRSUs being settled in Shares include a fractional interest, such fractional interest will be eliminated by rounding down to the nearest whole share unit.

4. No Rights as a Shareholder. You will have no rights as a shareholder of PNC by virtue of this Award unless and until Shares are issued and delivered in settlement of the Award pursuant to and in accordance with this Agreement.

5. Transfer Restrictions.

(a) The Award may not be sold, assigned, transferred, exchanged, pledged, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated.

(b) If you are deceased at the time any outstanding vested PRSUs are settled and paid out in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such delivery of Shares, cash payment or other payment (as applicable) shall be made to the executor or administrator of your estate or to your other legal representative or, as permitted under the election procedures of the Plan’s third-party administrator, to your designated beneficiary, in each case, as determined in good faith by PNC. Any delivery of Shares, cash payment or other payment made in good faith by PNC to your executor, other legal representative or permissible designated beneficiary, or retained by PNC for taxes pursuant to Section 6 of this Appendix A, shall extinguish all right to payment hereunder.

(c) Applicable Laws. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, PNC will not be required to comply with any term, covenant or condition of this Agreement if and to the extent prohibited by law, including but not limited to Federal banking and securities regulations, or as otherwise directed by one or more regulatory agencies having jurisdiction over PNC.

6. Withholding Taxes.

(a) You shall be solely responsible for any applicable taxes (including, without limitation, income and excise taxes), penalties and interest that you incur in connection hereunder. PNC will, at the time any withholding tax obligation arises in connection herewith, retain an amount sufficient to satisfy the minimum amount of taxes then required to be withheld by PNC in connection therewith from amounts then payable hereunder to you.

(b) If any such withholding is required prior to the time amounts are payable to you hereunder or if such amounts are not sufficient to satisfy such obligation in full, the withholding will be taken from other compensation then payable to you or as otherwise determined by PNC.

(c) PNC will withhold cash from any amounts then payable to you hereunder that are settled in cash. Unless the Committee or PNC Designated Person determines otherwise, with respect to stock-payable PRSUs only, PNC will retain whole Shares from any amounts then payable to you hereunder (or pursuant to any other PRSUs previously awarded to you under the Plan) in the form of Shares. For purposes of this Section 6(c), Shares retained to satisfy applicable withholding tax requirements will be valued at their Fair Market Value on the date the tax withholding obligation arises (as such date is determined by PNC).

-4-

7. Employment. Neither the granting of the Award nor any payment with respect to such Award authorized hereunder nor any term or provision of this Agreement shall constitute or be evidence of any understanding, expressed or implied, on the part of PNC to employ you for any period or in any way alter your status as an employee at will.

8. Miscellaneous.

(a) Subject to the Plan and Interpretations. In all respects the Award and this Agreement are subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, which has been made available to you and is incorporated herein by reference. The terms of the Plan will not be considered an enlargement of any benefits under this Agreement. If the Plan and this Agreement conflict, the provisions of the Plan will govern. Interpretations of the Plan and this Agreement by the Committee are binding on you and PNC.

(b) Governing Law and Jurisdiction. This Agreement is governed by and construed under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without reference to its conflict of laws provisions. Any dispute or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or claim of breach hereof will be brought exclusively in the Federal court for the Western District of Pennsylvania or in the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. By execution of this Agreement, you and PNC hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts, and waive any right to challenge jurisdiction or venue in such courts with regard to any suit, action, or proceeding under or in connection with this Agreement.

(c) Headings; Entire Agreement. Headings used in this Agreement are provided for reference and convenience only, are not considered part of this Agreement, and will not be employed in the construction of this Agreement.

(d) Modification. Modifications or adjustments to the terms of this Agreement may be made by PNC as permitted in accordance with the Plan or as provided for in this Agreement. No other modification of the terms of this Agreement will be effective unless embodied in a separate, subsequent writing signed by you and by an authorized representative of PNC.

(e) No Waiver. Failure of PNC to demand strict compliance with any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement will not be deemed a waiver of such term, covenant or condition, nor will any waiver or relinquishment of any such term, covenant or condition on any occasion or on multiple occasions be deemed a waiver or relinquishment of such term, covenant or condition.

-5-

(f) Severability. The restrictions and obligations imposed by this Agreement are separate and severable, and it is the intent of both parties that if any restriction or obligation imposed by any of these provisions is deemed by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void for any reason whatsoever, the remaining provisions, restrictions and obligations will remain valid and binding upon you.

(g) Compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. It is the intention of the parties that the Award and the Agreement comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code to the extent, if any, that such provisions are applicable to the Award and the Agreement, and the Agreement will be administered in a manner consistent with this intent, including as set forth in Section 21 of the Plan. If the Award includes a “series of installment payments” (within the meaning of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations), your right to the series of installment payments will be treated as a right to a series of separate payments and not as a right to a single payment.

Certain Definitions. Except as otherwise provided, the following definitions apply for purposes of the Agreement.

“Anticipatory Termination” means a termination of employment where PNC terminates your employment with PNC (other than for Misconduct or Disability) prior to the date on which a Change of Control occurs, and you reasonably demonstrated that such termination of employment (i) was at the request of a third party that has taken steps reasonably calculated to effect a Change of Control or (ii) otherwise arose in connection with or in anticipation of a Change of Control.

“Cause” means (a) your willful and continued failure to substantially perform your duties with PNC (other than any such failure resulting from incapacity due to physical or mental illness) after a written demand for substantial performance is delivered to you by PNC that specifically identifies the manner in which it is believed that you have not substantially performed your duties; (b) your material breach of (1) any code of conduct of PNC that is applicable to you or (2) other written policy of PNC that is applicable to you, in either case required by law or established to maintain compliance with applicable law; (c) any act of fraud, misappropriation, material dishonesty, or embezzlement by you against PNC or any client or customer of PNC; (d) your conviction (including a plea of guilty or of nolo contendere) for, or entry into a pre-trial disposition with respect to, the commission of a felony; or (e) entry of any order against you by any governmental body having regulatory authority with respect to the business of PNC that relates to or arises out of your employment or other service relationship with PNC.

The cessation of your employment with PNC will be deemed to have been a termination of your employment for Cause for purposes of the Agreement only if and when PNC, by PNC’s CEO or his or her designee (or, if you are the CEO, the Board, or if you are another “officer” of PNC, as defined in Section 16 of the Exchange Act (and the rules thereunder), the Board or the Committee), determines that you are guilty of conduct described in clause (a), (b) or (c) above or that an event described in clause (d) or (e) above has occurred with respect to you and, if so, determines that the termination of your employment with PNC will be deemed to have been for Cause.

“CEO” means the chief executive officer of PNC.

“Change of Control” means:

(a) Any Person becomes the beneficial owner (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of 20% or more of either (x) the then-outstanding shares of Common Stock (the “Outstanding PNC Common Stock”) or (y) the combined voting power of the then-outstanding voting securities of PNC entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the “Outstanding PNC Voting Securities”). The following acquisitions will not constitute a Change of Control for purposes of this definition: (1) any acquisition directly from PNC, (2) any acquisition by PNC, (3) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by PNC or any company controlled by, controlling or under common control with PNC (an “Affiliated Company”), (4) any acquisition pursuant to an Excluded Combination (as defined below) or (5) an acquisition of beneficial ownership representing between 20% and 40%, inclusive, of the Outstanding PNC Voting Securities or Outstanding PNC Common Stock if the Incumbent Board (as defined below) as of immediately prior to any such acquisition approves such acquisition either prior to or immediately after its occurrence;

(b) Individuals who, as of the date hereof, constitute the Board (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board (excluding any Board seat that is vacant or otherwise unoccupied). For purposes of this definition, any individual becoming a director subsequent to the date hereof whose election, or nomination for election by the shareholders of PNC, was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board will be considered as though such individual was a member of the Incumbent Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of an actual or threatened election contest with respect to the election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board;

(c) Consummation of a reorganization, merger, statutory share exchange or consolidation or similar transaction involving PNC or any of its subsidiaries, a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of PNC, or the acquisition of assets or stock of another entity by PNC or any of its subsidiaries (each, a “Business Combination”). A transaction otherwise meeting the definition of Business Combination will not be treated as a Change of Control if following completion of the transaction all or substantially all of the beneficial owners of the Outstanding PNC Common Stock and the Outstanding PNC Voting Securities immediately prior to such Business Combination beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 60% of the then-outstanding shares of Common Stock (or, for a non-corporate entity, equivalent securities) and the combined voting power of the then-outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (or, for a non-corporate entity, equivalent governing body), as the case may be, of the entity resulting from such Business Combination (including, without limitation, an entity that, as a result of such transaction, owns PNC or all or substantially all of PNC’s assets either directly or through one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions as their ownership immediately prior to such Business Combination of the Outstanding PNC Common Stock and the Outstanding PNC Voting Securities, as the case may be (such a Business Combination, an “Excluded Combination”); or

ii

(d) Approval by the shareholders of PNC of a complete liquidation or dissolution of PNC.

“Competitive Activity” means any participation in, employment by, ownership of any equity interest exceeding one percent in, or promotion or organization of, any Person other than PNC (1) engaged in business activities similar to some or all of the business activities of PNC during your employment or (2) engaged in business activities that you know PNC intends to enter within the next 12 months (or, if after your Termination Date, within the first 12 months after your Termination Date), in either case whether you are acting as agent, consultant, independent contractor, employee, officer, director, investor, partner, shareholder, proprietor or in any other individual or representative capacity therein. For purposes of Competitive Activity as defined herein (and as such similar term is defined in any equity-based award agreement held by you), the term “subsidiary” will not include any company in which PNC holds an interest pursuant to its merchant banking authority.

“Detrimental Conduct” means:

(a) You have engaged in, without the prior written consent of PNC (with consent to be given or withheld at PNC’s sole discretion), in any Competitive Activity in the Restricted Territory at any time during the period of your employment with PNC and the 12-month period following your Termination Date;

(b) any act of fraud, misappropriation, or embezzlement by you against PNC or one of its subsidiaries or any client or customer of PNC or one of its subsidiaries; or

(c) you are convicted (including a plea of guilty or of nolo contendere) of, or you enter into a pre-trial disposition with respect to, the commission of a felony that relates to or arises out of your employment or other service relationship with PNC.

You will be deemed to have engaged in Detrimental Conduct for purposes of the Agreement only if and when the Committee or other PNC Designated Person determines that you have engaged in conduct described in clause (a) or clause (b) above or that an event described in clause (c) above has occurred with respect to you. Detrimental Conduct will not apply to conduct by or activities of successors to the Award by will or the laws of descent and distribution in the event of your death.

No determination that you have engaged in Detrimental Conduct may be made (x) on or after your Termination Date if your termination of employment was an Anticipatory Termination or (y) between the time PNC enters into an agreement providing for a Change of Control and the time such agreement either terminates or results in a Change of Control.

THE PNC FINANCIAL SERVICES GROUP, INC.

2006 INCENTIVE AWARD PLAN

PERFORMANCE RESTRICTED SHARE UNITS AWARD AGREEMENT

APPENDIX C

PERFORMANCE-BASED VESTING CONDITIONS

SENIOR LEADERS PROGRAM (SECTION 16 EXECUTIVES)

The following table sets forth the performance-based vesting conditions of the Award:

1.	Generally	The Award is divided into four Tranches, with the first Tranche relating to the 2016 performance year, the second Tranche relating to the 2017 performance year, and so on. Performance-based vesting and calculation of related payout for each outstanding Tranche is adjusted based on an annual risk review performance factor relating to PNC’s return on economic capital (ROEC), as defined in paragraph 4 below, relative to the applicable Committee-specified risk performance hurdle for that year for purposes of comparison, business unit financial performance or at the discretion of the Committee.
2.	Risk Review Performance Factor	The ROEC-related risk metric and business unit financial performance each serve as a trigger to determine whether or not a risk performance review and potential downward adjustment by the Committee is required. In addition, and independent from the ROEC-related risk metric or business unit financial performance, the Committee has the discretion to conduct a risk performance review. Any determination to conduct a risk performance review will be made shortly after the close of the applicable year, but no later than the 45th day following the close of such year. The “ROEC hurdle” for a given risk performance year is the risk performance hurdle specified by the Committee (no later than March 30th of that performance year) for purposes of comparison of ROEC to such hurdle. The hurdle is related to PNC’s cost of capital, and is set at a level at which the Committee believes ROEC performance below that level for the year could be an indication of a possibly inappropriate level of risk and therefore warrant a risk performance review by the Committee.

-1-

A review is triggered (1) if the Committee requires a review in its discretion, (2) one of the specific business unit or enterprise level review triggers set forth below is met and that review trigger is applicable to you because either (a) it applies to your business unit or functional area as of the Grant Date and the Committee has not determined in its discretion to apply a different review trigger to you for the given performance year or (b) the Committee has determined in its discretion to apply such specific business unit or enterprise level review trigger to you for the specific performance year or years; or (3) PNC’s ROEC is less than the ROEC hurdle for that performance year.

The specific business unit or enterprise level review triggers referenced in clause (2) above are as follows:

•       PNC’s Retail Banking segment reports a loss for the performance year

•       PNC’s Corporate & Institutional Banking segment reports a loss for the performance year

•       PNC’s Asset Management Group segment reports a loss for the performance year

•       PNC’s Residential Mortgage Banking segment reports a loss for the performance year

•       PNC’s return on economic capital with specified adjustments (“ROEC”) for the performance year is less than the applicable Committee-specified ROEC hurdle amount for that performance year.

If you are not assigned to one of the above-named business units as of the Grant Date, the specific review trigger applicable to you will be the one that relates to PNC’s ROEC relative to the applicable Committee-specified hurdle amount unless and until the Committee determines otherwise in its discretion.

For purposes of this Agreement, whether or not a specified business unit has a loss for a given performance year will be determined on the basis of the reported earnings or loss, as the case may be, of the reportable business segment that includes the results of such business unit, based on PNC’s publicly reported financial results for that year.

-2-

If a review is triggered, the Committee determines a risk review performance factor with respect to each Tranche (the “Annual Risk Review Performance Factor”), as follows:

•       As soon as practicable, the Committee will conduct a review to determine if a downward-adjustment for risk performance is appropriate and, if so, the size of that adjustment.

•       The Risk Review Performance Factor for a given year and Tranche may range from 0.00% to 100.00% (where a factor less than 100.00% reflects a downward adjustment of the payout size of the Tranche).

•       Using a sliding scale and other principles as guidelines, together with Committee discretion, the Committee determines the Annual Risk Review Performance Factor.

If no review is conducted with respect to that year, or if the Committee determines not to apply a downward adjustment for risk performance either to a Tranche or to a specific Grantee, the Annual Risk Review Performance Factor for that year will be 100.00%.

“ROEC” for a given performance year will be calculated as earnings for the applicable performance year, divided by average economic capital for the same calendar year, calculated to two places to the right of the decimal, rounded to the nearest hundredth, and where “earnings” and “economic capital” have the following meanings:

“Earnings” will mean PNC’s publicly-reported earnings for the applicable calendar year adjusted, on an after-tax basis, for the impact of the items set forth below:

•    items resulting from a change in tax law;

•    discontinued operations (as such term is used under GAAP);

•    acquisition costs and merger integration costs;

•    any costs or expense arising from specified Visa litigation (including Visa-litigation-related

-3-

		expenses/charges recorded for obligations to Visa with respect to the costs of specified litigation or the gains/reversal of expense recognized in connection with such obligations) and any other gains recognized on the redemption or sale of Visa shares as applicable;
		•   acceleration of the accretion of any remaining issuance discount in connection with the redemption of any preferred stock, and any other charges or benefits related to the redemption of trust preferred or other preferred securities; and •   the net impact on PNC of significant gains or losses related to BlackRock transactions. “Economic capital” means total economic capital for PNC on a consolidated basis as that term is used by PNC for its internal measurement purposes, and average economic capital for the applicable calendar year will mean such average economic capital as calculated by PNC for internal purposes. For the 2016 performance year, the Committee-approved ROEC hurdle level is related to PNC’s cost of capital and is set at 7.43%.
3.	Prospective Adjustments; Committee Determinations	The Committee may make prospective adjustments to the Award to the extent such adjustments would not cause the loss of a deduction under Code Section 162(m). All determinations made by the Committee or otherwise by PNC hereunder shall be made in its sole discretion and shall be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes on all parties.
4.	Determination of Performance Factors Upon Death or a Change of Control
	Death	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if your employment with PNC ceases by reason of your death, or if you die after a termination of employment with PNC due to Disability or Retirement or by reason of an Anticipatory Termination, in any case, prior to a Change of Control or any Scheduled Vesting Date(s), then all performance-based vesting requirements will be met with respect to the outstanding unvested portion of your Award, and such portion will payable based on 100% performance for the Annual Risk Review Performance Factor (unless the date of death occurs after a

-4-

calendar year but prior to performance-adjustment by the Committee for a given Tranche, in which case such Tranche will vest based on actual performance as determined by the Committee). For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of your death following a Change of Control, the Annual Risk Review Performance Factor for any then outstanding Tranche will be determined as provided in the “Change of Control” paragraph below.

Change of Control

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement and subject to your satisfaction of the service-based vesting requirements, any outstanding Tranches for which no Annual Risk Review Performance Factors have been determined at the time of a Change of Control will be performance-adjusted based on the last Annual Risk Review Performance Factor applicable prior to the Change of Control (or, if none, then 100.00%) for each Tranche, effective as of the day immediately preceding the date of the Change of Control. For the avoidance of doubt: •    If the Annual Risk Review Performance Factor was 0.00%, the Award will be forfeited by you as of the Change of Control. •    Tranches that remain outstanding will be paid out, without further Dividend Equivalents or any interest, on the Scheduled Vesting Dates (or earlier, in the event of your death) upon your satisfaction of the service-based vesting requirements. •    If a Change of Control occurs after your death, and the date of death occurs after a calendar year but prior to performance-adjustment by the Committee for a given Tranche, such Tranche will vest based on actual performance as determined by the Committee if such Committee determination was made as of the date immediately preceding the date of the Change of Control. If no Committee determination was made as of the date immediately preceding the Change of Control, then the Annual Risk Review Performance Factor for such Tranche will be determined as set forth in this “Change of Control” subparagraph.

-5-

5. Determination of Payout Share Units “Payout Share Units” means the performance-adjusted number of PRSUs in a Tranche that are eligible to vest. With respect to each Tranche, the calculation of Payout Share Units is determined as follows (with all percentages rounded to the nearest .01):   •    The Annual Risk Review Performance Factor is determined for the performance year related to that Tranche to generate the overall “Annual Performance Factor” for the Tranche (ranging from 0.00% to 100.00%).   •    The number of Payout Share Units for that Tranche is calculated by applying the Annual Performance Factor as a percentage of the initial outstanding PRSUs in a Tranche, rounded down to the nearest whole unit. Initial outstanding PRSUs in a Tranche that do not become Payout Share Units will be cancelled.
