We

make

statements

in

this

presentation,

and

we

may

from

time

to

time

make

other

statements,

regarding

our

outlook

or

expectations

for

earnings,

revenues,

expenses and/or other matters regarding or affecting PNC that are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. 

Forward-looking

statements

are

typically

identified

by

words

such

as

“believe,”

“expect,”

“anticipate,”

“intend,”

“outlook,”

“estimate,”

“forecast,”

“project”

and

other similar words and expressions.

Forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, which change over time. Forward-looking statements speak only as of

the date they are made.  We do not assume any duty and do not undertake to update our forward-looking statements.  Actual results or future events could differ,

possibly materially, from those that we anticipated in our forward-looking statements, and future results could differ materially from our historical performance.

Our forward-looking statements are subject to the following principal risks and uncertainties.  We provide greater detail regarding these factors in our Form 10-K

for the year ended December 31, 2005, including in the Risk Factors and Risk Management sections.  Our forward-looking statements may also be subject to

other

risks

and

uncertainties

including

those

that

we

may

discuss

elsewhere

in

this

presentation

or

in

our

filings

with

the

SEC,

accessible

on

the

SEC’s

website

at www.sec.gov and on or through our corporate website at www.pnc.com.

•

Our business and operating results are affected by business and economic conditions generally or specifically in the principal markets in which we do

business.

We

are

affected

by

changes

in

our

customers’

financial

performance,

as

well

as

changes

in

customer

preferences

and

behavior,

including

as a result of changing economic conditions

•

The value of our assets and liabilities as well as our overall financial performance are affected by changes in interest rates or in valuations in the debt

and equity markets.  Actions by the Federal Reserve and other government agencies, including those that impact money supply and market interest

rates, can affect our activities and financial results.

•

Competition can have an impact on customer acquisition, growth and retention, as well as on our credit spreads and product pricing, which can affect

market share, deposits and revenues.

•

Our ability to implement our One PNC initiative, as well as other business initiatives and strategies we may pursue, could affect our financial

performance over the next several years.

•

Our ability to grow successfully through acquisitions is impacted by a number of risks and uncertainties related both to the acquisition transactions

themselves and to the integration of the acquired businesses into PNC after closing.  These uncertainties are present in transactions such as the

pending acquisition by BlackRock of Merrill Lynch’s investment management business.

Cautionary Statement Regarding

Forward-Looking Information

8

•

Legal and regulatory developments could have an impact on our ability to operate our businesses or our financial condition or results of operations or

our competitive position or reputation.  Reputational impacts, in turn, could affect matters such as business generation and retention, our ability to

attract and retain management, liquidity and funding.  These developments could include:  (a) the resolution of legal proceedings or regulatory and

other governmental inquiries;  (b) increased litigation risk from recent regulatory and other governmental developments;  (c) the results of the

regulatory

examination

process,

our

failure

to

satisfy

the

requirements

of

agreements

with

governmental

agencies,

and

regulators’

future

use

of supervisory and enforcement tools;  (d) legislative and regulatory reforms, including changes to laws and regulations involving tax,

pension, and the protection of confidential customer information;  and (e) changes in accounting policies and principles.

•

Our business and operating results are affected by our ability to identify and effectively manage risks inherent in our businesses, including, where

appropriate, through the effective use of third-party insurance and capital management techniques.

•

Our ability to anticipate and respond to technological changes can have an impact on our ability to respond to customer needs and to meet

competitive demands.  The adequacy of our intellectual property protection, and the extent of any costs associated with obtaining rights in intellectual

property claimed by others, can also impact our business and operating results.

•

Our

business

and

operating

results

can

be

affected

by

widespread

natural

disasters,

terrorist

activities

or

international

hostilities,

either

as

a

result

of the impact on the economy and financial and capital markets generally or on us or on our customers, suppliers or other counterparties specifically.

Also, risks and uncertainties that could affect the results anticipated in forward-looking statements or from historical performance relating to our majority-owned

subsidiary BlackRock, Inc. are discussed in more detail in BlackRock’s 2005 Form 10-K, including in the Risk Factors section, and in BlackRock’s other filings

with the SEC, accessible on the SEC’s website and on or through BlackRock’s website at www.blackrock.com

Any annualized, proforma, estimated, third party or consensus numbers in this presentation are used for illustrative or comparative purposes only and may not

reflect actual results.  Any consensus earnings estimates are calculated based on the earnings projections made by analysts who cover that company.  The

analysts’

opinions,

earnings

estimates)

may not reflect PNC’s actual or anticipated results.
