PNC expects Demchak to become president and chief executive officer and Rohr to assume the new position of executive chairman effective at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders on April 23, 2013.

His candor and work ethic have earned him the trust of employees and investors, and the confidence of PNC's board. He deserves the opportunity to steer PNC into the future."
