WHEREAS, The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. (“PNC”) sponsors The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. and Affiliates Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”);

WHEREAS, Section 10 of the Plan authorizes PNC to amend the Plan; and

WHEREAS, PNC wishes to amend the Plan to (i) provide for the merger of the Mercantile Bankshares Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Mercantile Plan”) into the Plan such that each participant in the Mercantile Plan will have an account balance in the Plan, which will be equal to or greater than the account balance the participant had under the Mercantile Plan immediately before the merger (“Mercantile Account”), (ii) provide that each participant in the Mercantile Plan will have an irrevocable incentive payment and/or salary deferral election under the Plan for the remainder of 2007, (iii) provide that each Mercantile Account will be distributed in accordance with participant elections as previously designated under the Mercantile Plan, (iv) permit participants in the Corporate Executive Group to elect to defer certain performance-based compensation until six months before the end of the relevant performance period, and (v) make certain other clarifying changes.
