     On July 16, 2004, The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation (“PNC”), and Riggs National Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Riggs”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), under which PNC has agreed to acquire Riggs (the “Merger”).

     Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, which has been unanimously approved by the Boards of Directors of both companies, Riggs will merge into PNC and Riggs Bank, N.A. will merge into PNC Bank, National Association. The transaction values each share of Riggs common stock at approximately $24.25 based on PNC’s closing NYSE stock price of $51.70 on July 14, 2004. Riggs shareholders will be entitled to elect to receive the merger consideration in shares of PNC’s common stock or in cash, subject to proration. The aggregate consideration is composed of a fixed number of approximately 7.5 million shares of PNC’s common stock and $321 million in cash, subject to adjustment. The actual value of the merger consideration to be paid upon closing will depend on the average stock price of PNC shortly prior to completion of the merger, and the cash and stock components on a per Riggs share basis will be determined at that time based on that average PNC stock price so that each share of Riggs receives consideration representing equal value based on that average price. Riggs stock options, currently with an aggregate in-the-money value of approximately $66 million, will be cashed out in connection with the closing, if not exercised before that time.

PNC TO ACQUIRE RIGGS
Definitive Agreement Creates Valuable
Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Area Presence for PNC

PNC Expects to Report Second Quarter Earnings of $1.07 per Share

     PITTSBURGH and WASHINGTON, D.C., July 16, 2004 – The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. (NYSE: PNC) and Riggs National Corporation (NASDAQ: RIGS) today announced that they have signed a definitive agreement for PNC to acquire Riggs for $24.25 per common share, or approximately $779 million in stock and cash.

     Riggs is a $6 billion asset banking company that provides commercial and retail banking services through 50 branches in the metropolitan Washington, D.C. area. In its 165-year history, Riggs has held accounts for many U.S. Presidents, and is among the capital’s most historic banks. Through the acquisition, PNC will gain entry to one of the nation’s most appealing financial services markets and the fifth-most affluent metropolitan region in the U.S.

     “This acquisition is an important step forward in our plan to grow PNC,” said James E. Rohr, chairman and chief executive officer of The PNC Financial Services Group. “Riggs’s strong banking franchise gives us an excellent platform on which to build in the extremely appealing metropolitan Washington marketplace. We believe Riggs’s customers will be well served by our comprehensive product offerings, and we believe we will win an increasing share of the region’s financial services business.

     “This combination is highly attractive to us,” said Lawrence Hebert, chief executive officer of Riggs Bank N.A. “The integrated company will provide our customers with seamless service and access to a wider scope of products and services while maintaining the long and valued traditions of the Riggs franchise. We have found the best solution for shareholders, customers, employees and our communities.”

     PNC President Joe Guyaux, who will oversee the integration process, said PNC is confident that it will successfully address Riggs’s regulatory problems.

     “We look forward to leveraging the Riggs platform to build a market-leading financial services franchise in Washington, Virginia and Maryland,” Guyaux said. “We are confident, following completion of our due diligence work, that we can successfully work through the regulatory issues that have been identified at Riggs.”

     PNC anticipates that the transaction will be accretive to earnings per share in 2007 and that it has an estimated internal rate of return that exceeds 16 percent.

     Under terms of the merger agreement, which has been unanimously approved by the Boards of Directors of both companies, Riggs will merge into PNC and Riggs Bank will merge into PNC Bank. The transaction values each share of Riggs common stock at approximately $24.25 based on PNC’s closing NYSE stock price of $51.70 on July 14, 2004. Riggs shareholders will be entitled to elect to receive the merger consideration in shares of PNC common stock or in cash, subject to proration. The aggregate consideration is composed of a fixed number of approximately 7.5 million shares of PNC common stock and $321 million in cash, subject to adjustment. The actual value of the merger consideration to be paid upon closing will depend on the average PNC stock price shortly prior to completion of the merger, and the cash and stock components on a per Riggs share basis will be determined at that time based on that average PNC stock price so that each share of Riggs receives consideration representing equal value. Riggs stock options, currently with an aggregate in-the- money value of approximately $66 million, will be cashed out prior to closing, if not exercised.

     The transaction is expected to close during the first quarter of 2005. The merger is subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals and the approval of Riggs shareholders. Mr. Joseph L. Allbritton has entered into an agreement to vote 24.6% of the outstanding shares of Riggs in favor of the transaction. After closing, Riggs branches will assume the PNC Bank name.

     No branch overlap exists between the two companies, and PNC anticipates additional branch openings in Riggs’s geographical region. The transaction is expected to result in the reduction of approximately $82 million of operating expenses, before costs associated with planned expansion, through the elimination of operational and administrative redundancies.
