5.02(e).

On December 23, 2009, the Personnel and Compensation Committee of PNC’s Board of Directors made awards of long-term restricted stock to some of our executive officers, including all of our named executive officers, under our 2006 Incentive Award Plan. The terms of these long-term restricted stock awards are designed to comply with the requirements for long-term restricted stock imposed by the Interim Final Rule for TARP Standards for Compensation and Corporate Governance adopted by the U.S. Department of the Treasury.

The awards will vest provided that the grantee continues to perform substantial services for PNC for at least two years from the shares issuance date (subject to earlier vesting upon the grantee’s death or disability or in the event of a change of control of PNC). Also, the shares underlying the awards are subject to transfer restrictions, other than for tax withholding, until the later of the third anniversary of the shares issuance date and the date on which PNC repays its TARP obligations. Cash dividends on the restricted shares will also be forfeited if the shares are forfeited prior to vesting.

The awards were denominated in dollars; the number of shares for each such award will be calculated by dividing the dollar amount of the award by the reported closing price on the New York Stock Exchange of a share of PNC common stock on the shares issuance date. The shares issuance date will be the second business day after PNC publicly releases its earnings results for the fourth quarter and full year 2009. The amounts awarded to our named executive officers are as follows: James E. Rohr ($4,874,000); Richard J. Johnson ($1,257,000); Joseph C. Guyaux ($2,084,000); William S. Demchak ($4,093,000); and Timothy G. Shack ($1,391,000).

The form of agreement for awards of long-term restricted stock is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.64.

The Committee also adopted a form of agreement for awards of long-term stock that may be made under our 2006 Incentive Award Plan to other employees, including some of our executive officers, not currently subject to the TARP restrictions but who may become subject to such restrictions in the future. This Form of Agreement for long-term stock for certain other executives is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.65.
