                          PNC BANK CORP. REPORTS RECORD
                          SECOND QUARTER 1998 EARNINGS

            PITTSBURGH, July 16, 1998 - PNC Bank Corp. (NYSE: PNC) today
reported record earnings of $280 million or $0.90 per diluted share for the
second quarter of 1998 compared with $259 million or $0.81 per diluted share in
the second quarter of 1997.

            Returns on average common shareholders' equity and average assets
were 21.42% and 1.53% for the second quarter of 1998 compared with 20.21% and
1.47% for the prior-year quarter.

            "Our record earnings reflect strong performance across a broad range
of distinct financial services businesses," said Thomas H. O'Brien, chairman and
chief executive officer. "Outstanding growth in asset management, mutual fund
servicing, mortgage banking and other businesses fueled a significant increase
in revenue and the continued improvement of our earnings composition. These
results are consistent with our ongoing strategy to focus resources on
businesses with superior return characteristics and potential for growth."

HIGHLIGHTS


          *    Revenue increased 17% in the quarter-to-quarter comparison driven
               by growth in noninterest income which accounted for 49% of total
               revenue.

          *    Fee-based revenue grew 30% from the prior-year quarter.

          *    Asset quality remained stable as net charge-offs and
               nonperforming assets were comparable with the first quarter of
               1998.

PNC Bank Corp. Reports Record Second Quarter 1998 Earnings--Page 2

          *    The acquisition of Midland Loan Services, Inc. created one of the
               largest commercial real estate loan servicing organizations in
               the nation with a total servicing portfolio of $27.9 billion,
               including $19.5 billion of commercial mortgage-backed securities.

          *    PNC enhanced its national presence in business credit with the
               acquisition of the asset-based finance business of BTM Capital
               Corp. and now ranks seventh in the U.S. with a loan portfolio
               totaling $1.4 billion.

          *    The residential mortgage servicing portfolio grew 15% from a year
               ago to $46.6 billion at June 30, 1998 driven by strong
               origination volumes and $8.6 billion of servicing acquisitions.

INCOME STATEMENT REVIEW

            Diluted earnings per share increased 11% in the second quarter of
1998 driven by strong revenue growth and the impact of capital management
initiatives.

            Taxable-equivalent net interest income increased $16 million to $637
million in the second quarter of 1998. The net interest margin was 3.81%
compared with 3.84% in the second quarter of 1997 and 3.96% in the first quarter
of 1998. The decrease from the first quarter was primarily due to an increase in
commercial loans, growth in credit cards at introductory rates and the financing
of the Midland acquisition. The provision for credit losses was $35 million in
the second quarter of 1998 compared with $15 million last year.

            Noninterest income was $611 million in the second quarter of 1998,
an increase of 38% compared with the second quarter of 1997. Asset management,
mutual fund servicing, consumer services, corporate finance and capital markets,
and mortgage banking revenues all grew in excess of 20%. In addition,
noninterest income included $56 million of gains from the sales of 16 branches
in Western Pennsylvania that offset one-time costs related to consumer delivery
initiatives and improvements in credit card operations. Excluding these gains,
noninterest income increased $110 million or 25% from the prior-year quarter.

            Asset management and mutual fund servicing fees grew 24% and 30%,
respectively, from the second quarter of 1997 reflecting significant new
business and strong financial markets. Managed assets increased to approximately
$151 billion at June 30, 1998 compared with $122 billion a year ago.

PNC Bank Corp. Reports Record Second Quarter 1998 Earnings--Page 3



            Consumer services revenue increased $17 million or 23% compared with
the second quarter of 1997 primarily due to higher credit card and brokerage
fees related to growth in account volumes. Corporate finance and capital markets
fees increased 33% to $67 million in the second quarter of 1998 including $12
million of commercial mortgage servicing revenue from Midland.

            Mortgage banking revenue grew $40 million from the prior-year
quarter primarily due to higher marketing gains and origination volumes
reflecting significant mortgage refinance activity and new business from an
expanded national distribution network. Residential mortgage originations
totaled $3.0 billion compared with $1.3 billion in the year-earlier period. At
June 30, 1998, approximately $46.6 billion of mortgages were serviced including
$37.9 billion serviced for others.

            The increase in other income was primarily due to the branch gains
and higher venture capital income. 

            Noninterest expense of $781 million increased $131 million compared
with the second quarter of 1997. Approximately $55 million of the increase
related to one-time costs for consumer delivery initiatives, employee
displacements and the streamlining of credit card operations. The remaining
increase in noninterest expense was primarily due to higher amortization of
residential mortgage servicing rights, the impact of the Midland acquisition and
incentive compensation commensurate with revenue growth.

BALANCE SHEET REVIEW

            Total assets were $75.9 billion at June 30, 1998. Average earning
assets increased $2.5 billion from the prior-year quarter to $66.7 billion as
higher loans and loans held for sale more than offset reductions in the
securities portfolio. Average loans grew $2.5 billion to $55.3 billion, a 4.8%
increase from the prior year. Growth in commercial loans and credit cards more
than offset the impact of loan securitizations and the downsizing of the
indirect automobile lending portfolio. The increase in commercial loans was
primarily in middle market and secured lending, which includes approximately
$230 million from BTM. Loans represented 83.0% of average earning assets in the
second quarter of 1998 compared with 82.3% a year ago. Average loans held for
sale increased $1.5 billion reflecting higher residential mortgage originations
and the commercial mortgage inventory of Midland. Average securities available
for sale decreased $1.7 billion to $7.3 billion or 11.0% of average earning
assets.

            Average deposits declined $645 million to $44.2 billion in the
second quarter of 1998 representing 60.0% of total sources of funds. The ratio
of wholesale funds to total sources of funds was 30.1% for the second quarter of
1998 compared with 28.9% a year ago.

          Shareholders' equity totaled $5.6 billion at June 30, 1998. The
leverage ratio was 7.23% and Tier I and total risk-based capital ratios are
estimated to be 7.3% and 10.8%, respectively.

          The ratio of nonperforming assets to total loans and foreclosed assets
was 0.57% at June 30, 1998, 0.61% at March 31, 1998 and 0.83% at June 30, 1997.
Nonperforming assets were $323 million at June 30, 1998 compared with $335
million at March 31, 1998 and $442 million a year ago.

          The allowance for credit losses was $859 million at June 30, 1998, and
represented 315% of nonperforming loans compared with 310% at June 30, 1997. Net
charge-offs were $89 million in the second quarter of 1998 compared with $90
million in the first quarter of 1998 and $59 million in the year-earlier period.
The corresponding ratios of net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans
were 0.64%, 0.67% and 0.44%, respectively. The increase in net charge-offs from
the prior year was primarily associated with credit cards reflecting a higher
level of consumer bankruptcies and higher outstandings.

YEAR TO DATE RESULTS

          Earnings per diluted share increased 10% to $1.77 for the first six
months of 1998 from $1.61 in 1997. Returns on average common shareholders'
equity and average assets were 21.26% and 1.52%, respectively, compared with
19.84% and 1.50%, respectively, for the first six months of 1997.
