Item 4. Description of Securities.

Not applicable.

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

The legal opinion regarding the validity of the securities to be issued is rendered by Laura Gleason, Corporate Secretary and Deputy General Counsel of PNC. Ms. Gleason beneficially owns or has the rights to acquire an aggregate of less than 1% of PNC’s common stock. In addition, Ms. Gleason is eligible to be a participant under the 2025 ESPP.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

PNC is incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Sections 1741 and 1742 of the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law (“PBCL”) provide that a Pennsylvania corporation has the power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation), by reason of the fact that the person is or was a representative of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a representative of another enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the action or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the conduct was unlawful. In the case of any threatened, pending or completed action by or in the right of the corporation, indemnification of any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to the action by reason of the fact that the person is or was a representative of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a representative of another enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action is permitted if such person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation. However, no indemnification is permitted with respect to actions by or in the right of the corporation in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person has been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the court of common pleas of the judicial district embracing the county in which the registered office of the corporation is located or the court in which the action was brought determines upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for the expenses that the court of common pleas or other court deems proper.

Section 1743 of the PBCL provides, in general, that a corporation must indemnify any present or former director or officer of a corporation who has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action or proceeding referred to in Section 1741 or Section 1742 or in defense of any claim, issue, or matter therein, against expenses (including attorney fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such representative in connection therewith.

Section 1744 of the PBCL provides that, unless ordered by a court, any indemnification under Section 1741 or Section 1742 shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because the representative has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in those sections. In accordance with Section 1744 of the PBCL, such determination shall be made (i) by the board of directors by a majority vote of a quorum of directors who were not parties to the action or proceeding, (ii) if such a quorum is not obtainable or if obtainable and a majority vote of a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (iii) by the shareholders.

Section 1745 of the PBCL provides, in general, that expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in defending any action or proceeding referred to in Subchapter D of Chapter 17 of the PBCL may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay such amount if it is ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation. Except as otherwise provided in the corporation’s bylaws, advancement of expenses shall be authorized by the board of directors.

Section 1746 of the PBCL provides that the foregoing provisions shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which a person seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under, among other things, any by-law provision, provided that no indemnification may be made in any case where the act or failure to act giving rise to the claim for indemnification is determined by a court to have constituted willful misconduct or recklessness.

---

PNC’s Bylaws provide for the mandatory indemnification of directors and officers to the fullest extent authorized by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and federal banking laws and regulation as the same exists or may be amended after the date of PNC’s Bylaws (to the extent that such amendment permits broader indemnification than currently permitted). PNC’s Bylaws also eliminate, to the maximum extent permitted by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the personal liability of directors for monetary damages for any action taken, or any failure to take any action as a director, except in any case where such elimination is not permitted by law.

Section 1747 of the PBCL provides, in general, that a corporation shall have the power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a representative of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a representative of another enterprise, against any liability asserted against the person and incurred by the person in any such capacity, or arising out of the person’s status as such, regardless of whether the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against that liability under Subchapter D of Chapter 17 of the PBCL.

PNC has purchased directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering certain liabilities that may be incurred by its directors and officers in connection with the performance of their duties.

The foregoing is only a general summary of certain aspects of Pennsylvania law and PNC’s Bylaws dealing with indemnification of directors and officers, and does not purport to be complete. It is qualified in its entirety by reference to the detailed provisions of Subchapter D of Chapter 17 of the PBCL and PNC’s Bylaws.

Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.

Not applicable.

Item 8. Exhibits.

For the list of exhibits, see the Exhibit Index to this Registration Statement, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 9. Undertakings.

(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement; and

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;

provided, however, that Paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

---

(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

The Tower at PNC Plaza

300 Fifth Avenue

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15222-2401

Ladies and Gentlemen:

I am Deputy General Counsel and Corporate Secretary of The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation (the “Company”) and in that capacity have acted as counsel for the Company in connection with the preparation of a registration statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”) to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), relating to the offer and sale of 3,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $5.00 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”), which may be issued under The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. 2025 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Plan”).

I have reviewed such corporate records and other documents relating to the Company and the Plan and certificates of public officials and officers of the Company that I have deemed necessary under the circumstances as a basis for the opinions hereinafter expressed.

In making such examination and rendering the opinions set forth below, I have assumed: (i) the genuineness and authenticity of all signatures on original documents; (ii) the authenticity of all documents submitted to me as originals; (iii) the conformity to originals of all documents submitted to me as certified or reproduced copies and the authenticity of the originals of such documents; (iv) the accuracy, completeness and authenticity of certificates or letters of public officials; and (v) the due authorization, execution and delivery of all documents (except the due authorization, execution and delivery by the Company), where authorization, execution and delivery are prerequisites to the effectiveness of such documents.

Based upon the foregoing, it is my opinion that the Common Stock has been duly authorized by the Company and, when issued by the Company in accordance with the provisions of the Plan, will be validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable.

I am a member of the Bar of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and I express no opinion as to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law and the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

I hereby consent to the use of this opinion as Exhibit 5.1 to the Registration Statement. In giving such opinion, I do not thereby admit that I am acting within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act or the rules or regulations of the Commission thereunder.
