Related to Clawback; Forfeiture; Detrimental Conduct
Clawback/Forfeiture (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event of a material restatement of the Company’s issued financial statements, the Committee shall review the facts and circumstances underlying the restatement (including, without limitation any potential wrongdoing by the Participant and whether the restatement was the result of negligence or intentional or gross misconduct) and may in its sole discretion direct the Company to recover all or a portion of any income or gain realized on the settlement of the RSUs or the subsequent sale of shares of Stock acquired upon settlement of the RSUs with respect to any fiscal year in which the Company’s financial results are negatively impacted by such restatement. If the Committee directs the Company to recover any such amount from the Participant, then the Participant agrees to and shall be required to repay any such amount to the Company within 30 days after the Company demands repayment. In addition, if the Company is required by law to include an additional “clawback” or “forfeiture” provision to outstanding awards, under the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act or otherwise, then such clawback or forfeiture provision shall also apply to this Agreement as if it had been included on the Date of Grant and the Company shall promptly notify the Participant of such additional provision. In addition, if a Participant has engaged or is engaged in Detrimental Activity after the Participant’s employment or service with the Company or its subsidiaries has ceased, then the Participant, within 30 days after written demand by the Company, shall return any income or gain realized on the settlement of the RSUs or the subsequent sale of shares of Stock acquired upon settlement of the RSUs.
Detrimental Conduct At any time prior to the date that such Performance RSUs and related Dividend Equivalents vest in accordance with Section 7.1 or expire unvested or are cancelled pursuant to other provisions of the Award Agreement, Performance RSUs and related Dividend Equivalents, or specified portion thereof, will be forfeited by Grantee to PNC and cancelled, without payment of any consideration by PNC, on the date and to the extent that PNC determines in its sole discretion to so cancel all or a specified portion of the Performance RSUs and related Dividend Equivalents on the basis of its determination that Grantee has engaged in Detrimental Conduct as set forth in Section 13.13, whether such determination is made during the period of Xxxxxxx’s employment with the Corporation or after Grantee’s Termination Date; provided, however, that (i) no determination that Grantee has engaged in Detrimental Conduct may be made on or after the date of Grantee’s death (other than with respect to a Tranche, if any, that does not vest immediately upon death), and Detrimental Conduct will not apply to conduct by or activities of successors to the Performance RSUs and related Dividend Equivalents by will or the laws of descent and distribution in the event of Xxxxxxx’s death; (ii) in the event that Xxxxxxx’s termination of employment was a Qualifying Anticipatory Termination, no determination that Grantee has engaged in Detrimental Conduct may be made on or after Grantee’s Termination Date; (iii) no determination that Grantee has engaged in Detrimental Conduct may be made between the time PNC enters into an agreement providing for a Change of Control and the time such agreement either terminates or results in a Change of Control; and (iv) no determination that Grantee has engaged in Detrimental Conduct may be made after the occurrence of a Change of Control.
Clawback Rights The Annual Bonus, and any and all stock based compensation (such as options and equity awards) (collectively, the “Clawback Benefits”) shall be subject to “Clawback Rights” as follows: during the period that the Executive is employed by the Parent and upon the termination of the Executive’s employment and for a period of three (3) years thereafter, if there is a restatement of any financial results from which any Clawback Benefits to the Executive shall have been determined, the Executive agrees to repay any amounts which were determined by reference to any Parent financial results which were later restated (as defined below), to the extent the Clawback Benefits amounts paid exceed the Clawback Benefits amounts that would have been paid, based on the restatement of the Parent’s financial information. All Clawback Benefits amounts resulting from such restated financial results shall be retroactively adjusted by the Compensation Committee to take into account the restated results, and any excess portion of the Clawback Benefits resulting from such restated results shall be immediately surrendered to the Parent and if not so surrendered within ninety (90) days of the revised calculation being provided to the Executive by the Compensation Committee following a publicly announced restatement, the Parent shall have the right to take any and all action to effectuate such adjustment. The calculation of the revised Clawback Benefits amount shall be determined by the Compensation Committee in good faith and in accordance with applicable law, rules and regulations. All determinations by the Compensation Committee with respect to the Clawback Rights shall be final and binding on the Parent and the Executive. The Clawback Rights shall terminate following a Change of Control as defined in Section 12(f), subject to applicable law, rules and regulations. For purposes of this Section 7, a restatement of financial results that requires a repayment of a portion of the Clawback Benefits amounts shall mean a restatement resulting from material non-compliance of the Parent with any financial reporting requirement under the federal securities laws and shall not include a restatement of financial results resulting from subsequent changes in accounting pronouncements or requirements which were not in effect on the date the financial statements were originally prepared (“Restatements”). The parties acknowledge it is their intention that the foregoing Clawback Rights as relates to Restatements conform in all respects to the provisions of the Dxxx-Fxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (“Dxxx-Xxxxx Act”) and require recovery of all “incentive-based” compensation, pursuant to the provisions of the Dxxx-Xxxxx Act and any and all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder from time to time in effect. Accordingly, the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed automatically amended from time to time to assure compliance with the Dxxx-Xxxxx Act and such rules and regulations as hereafter may be adopted and in effect.

Upon any forfeiture, all rights of the Grantee with respect to the forfeited Units shall cease and terminate, without any further obligation on the part of the Company.
