Acquisition of RBC Bank
On March 2, 2012, The PNC Financial Services
Group, Inc. (PNC) completed the purchase (the Stock Purchase) of 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of RBC Bank (USA) (RBC Bank) from RBC USA Holdco Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Royal Bank of
Canada (RBC), for approximately $3.47 billion in cash, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of June 19, 2011 (the Stock Purchase Agreement), among PNC, RBC USA Holdco Corporation
and RBC. The purchase price is subject to customary post-closing upward or downward adjustment based on the tangible net asset value and final transfer of excluded assets and liabilities of RBC Bank as of February 29, 2012. Immediately
following the closing of the Stock Purchase, PNC merged RBC Bank with and into PNC Bank, National Association, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of PNC (PNC Bank), with PNC Bank continuing as the surviving entity.
The description of the Stock Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
Stock Purchase Agreement, a copy of which was attached as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by PNC on June 20, 2011 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Acquisition of Credit Card Receivables Portfolio
On March 2, 2012, in
connection with the closing of the Stock Purchase, PNC Bank completed the purchase of a specified portfolio of RBC Bank-related credit card receivables from RBC Bank (Georgia), National Association, a wholly-owned subsidiary of RBC (RBC
Georgia), pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated as of June 19, 2011, among RBC, RBC Georgia, PNC and PNC Bank.
Item 5.02(e). Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
At a meeting held on February 29, 2012, our Boards Personnel and Compensation Committee approved the eligibility
of certain executive officers to receive annual incentive awards for fiscal 2012 under The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. 1996 Executive Incentive Award Plan, as amended and restated as of January 1, 2007. The amended Executive Incentive Award
Plan was most recently approved by our shareholders at a meeting held on April 24, 2007. At the meeting on February
29
th
, the Committee designated our Chief Executive Officer
and our three most highly compensated executive officers other than the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer as the four eligible participants for 2012.
Under the Executive Incentive Award Plan, the maximum amount that each of the participants will be eligible to receive is 0.2% of Incentive Income for fiscal 2012. The plan defines
Incentive Income as our consolidated net income, with certain adjustments. Among other items, the net income will be increased for income taxes and then adjusted for the impact of any item resulting from changes in the tax law, for the
impact of any extraordinary items, discontinued operations, acquisition costs and merger integration costs.
Once the year
ends, the Committee will decide whether to make a downward adjustment from the maximum annual incentive award amount for each participant. In making any downward adjustment, the Committee anticipates that it will take into account the same types of
performance factors used in deciding annual incentive awards for the other executive officers who do not participate in the 1996 Plan.
Any annual incentive awards for 2012 will be payable in the first quarter of 2013. Annual incentive awards will be denominated in dollars and payable in cash, equity, or a combination of both, as
determined by the Committee.
