Notes

1. The assets and liabilities that are not yet allocated to any of the Consortium shareholders, the so-called Shared Assets, are not included in this overview.

This demerger process refers only to Dutch and Belgian assets and liabilities. Acquired business in other countries will be separated in accordance with mechanisms agreed as appropriate for each country.

2. The structure shown represents the position after a transitional phase, during which the Dutch State and Santander will continue to hold a stake in RFS Holdings B.V. commensurate to their holding in remaining

Shared Assets and any other businesses subject to later separation

3. Subject to progression through Dutch legal procedures.

4. RFS Holdings B.V. is controlled by RBSG with an economic interest of 38.3% at acquisition, which does not reflect impact of future legal separation.

Ultimately RFS Holdings B.V. will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of RBSG. Majority control by RBS Group over RFS Holdings B.V. should be achieved on or around legal separation.

Operations

The RBS N.V. control framework consists of „three lines of defence‟, at the country, regional and

central level, integrated in the RBSG control framework

The first line of defence is business and functions. The business is responsible for setting risk

appetite and manages its risks within the overall Group risk appetite

The second line of defence is Risk Management. It is responsible for owning the risk

management framework, which the business uses to discharge its responsibilities, and provides

oversight of the first line on management of its risks

The third line of defence is Audit. It is responsible for providing independent assurance on the

design, adequacy and effectiveness of the Group's system of internal controls.

RBS Acquired Businesses Q3 YTD 2009 Results

Summary Profit & Loss Account – RBS Acquired Businesses Compared to Q3 YTD 2008 the overall pre-tax

operating loss for the period has improved by more

than €1.5bn.

The growth in operating income was principally

driven by:

- Increased trading income due to lower

negative credit valuation adjustments against

monolines,

- Lower write downs in Collateralised Debt

Obligations (CDOs),

- Lower credit losses on trading counterparties

and

- Increase in the equities business.

The improved net interest margins have lead to

higher net interest income (Q2 to Q3) although

lower compared to YTD 2008 due to the reduced

size of the balance sheet following transfers of

some businesses to RBS Plc.

Operating expenses declined by €772m mainly as

a result of lower personnel costs due to a decrease

in staff numbers and reduced remuneration levels.

The loan loss impairments increased significantly

reflecting the 2009 adverse economic conditions

and the challenging credit environment.

These results are not yet indicative of the

businesses that will remain to form the basis of the

future RBS N.V., post legal separation and after the

disposal of the identified non-core businesses.

RBS Acquired Businesses Q3 YTD 2009 Results – Pro Forma results

The pro forma figures represent the activities of the RBS Acquired

businesses that will remain in RBS N.V. post demerger and

exclude:

- the results of activities that are classed as Non-Core

- portfolios and transactions that have been transferred to RBS

plc

- the Shared Assets that are part of central items of the Group

Summary Profit & Loss Account – RBS Acquired Businesses (Pro Forma) The excluded results are predominantly the

losses on monolines / CDOs and the losses on

portfolios and transactions of other businesses

that have been transferred to the RBS Plc.

The pro forma results show a net loss year to

date of €889m.

The pro forma operating income was impacted

by:

- Difficult market conditions experienced

during the period;

- Fair value losses of €1.1bn on credit hedges

- A gain on the allocation of a remaining

Group ALM portfolio to the RBS Acquired

businesses.

Operating expenses have not declined in line

with operating income due to cost reduction

programmes lagging business transfers.

Initiatives to reduce costs to become in line with

the businesses remaining in the future RBS N.V.

are currently underway.

RBS N.V. is a highly integrated subsidiary of the RBS

Group as reflected by its name association and enjoys the

full support of RBSG. S&P has recognised this position by

giving an indicative long term rating of A+

RBS N.V. will become a majority owned subsidiary of

RBSG post legal separation and RBSG will provide

additional capital to maintain capital adequacy, if needed.

In this context, a €3bn capital injection was made by

RBSG via RFS Holdings BV in support of the RBS

acquired business in Q1 2009

Capital ratios for the RBS N.V. will comply with the

minimum tier 1 and total capital ratios set by the Dutch

Central Bank, currently 9% and 12.5% respectively. These

may be reset on transition to Basel II post legal separation

RWAs have decreased in line with the transfer of

businesses and activity to RBS plc; the decrease in RWAs

has strengthened RBS N.V.‟s capital position.

On accession to the UK Asset Protection Scheme (APS)

by RBSG in December 2009, cover was extended to a

pool of assets in RBS N.V.. This has helped to improve

the capital position and de-risk future earnings.

Debt and Capital Securities Economically Allocated to RBS Liabilities Allocated to RBS Acquired Businesses

The above statement has been prepared by ABN AMRO Bank N.V. for information purposes only, solely in connection with the separation process of the Dutch State acquired businesses of ABN AMRO

Holding N.V., which includes assets and liabilities of ABN AMRO Bank N.V. and is not an offer to buy, sell, exchange or transfer or a recommendation for or solicitation of an offer to buy, sell, exchange or

transfer any security or instrument and is not intended to form the basis of any investment decision. The above statement does not (nor shall it be deemed to) constitute a prospectus, offering circular or

memorandum, nor is it and is not intended to provide the sole basis for any evaluation of the securities or the issuer. The information contained in the above statement is not for publication, or distribution to,

persons in the United States and, for the avoidance of doubt, the above statement does not constitute an offer of securities for sale in the United States

For further information on the economic allocation of ABN AMRO capital please refer: http://www.group.abnamro.com/financials/allocation.cfm?disclaimer=off

On 30 September 2009 ABN AMRO Bank

N.V. filed documentation with the Amsterdam

Chamber of Commerce for a legal demerger

in The Netherlands and in Belgium. The

demerger proposals outline the legal process

for the transfer of the majority of the Dutch

State acquired businesses into a separate

legal entity, ABN AMRO II N.V., which will

remain wholly owned by ABN AMRO Holding

N.V. until it is legally transferred out of the

ABN AMRO Group.

The demerger proposals (excluding the

description of assets and liabilities) and pro

forma financial information as of 31 December

2008 and 30 June 2009 providing indicative

insight on the impact of the legal transfers and

demergers on ABN AMRO Bank N.V. are

available on the ABN AMRO's website

(www.abnamro.com). The complete demerger

filing, including a description of assets and

liabilities to be transferred, is available for

consultation at the Amsterdam Chamber of

Commerce.

The assets and liabilities referred to in the

legal demerger documentation include debt

and capital instruments allocated to the Dutch

State acquired businesses and, therefore, to

the extent legally possible, such debt and

capital instruments shall be legally transferred

to ABN AMRO II N.V. upon the legal

demerger becoming effective. Insofar as, and

to the extent that, the legal ownership of such

debt and capital instruments cannot be

transferred to ABN AMRO II N.V. pursuant to

the legal demerger (e.g. due to governing law

or contractual constraints), then the economic

ownership of such debt and capital

instruments will, to the greatest extent

possible, transfer to ABN AMRO II N.V.

pursuant to the legal demerger. Further steps

will be taken to transfer the legal ownership in

due course.

Any debt and capital instrument not included

in the assets and liabilities referred to in the

legal demerger documentation shall not

transfer to ABN AMRO II N.V. and shall be

retained by ABN AMRO Bank N.V. (to be

renamed The Royal Bank of Scotland N.V.)

unless stated and / or agreed otherwise by the

parties.

Introducing The Royal Bank of Scotland N.V. (RBS N.V.)

Summary Financial Information for RBS N.V.

Update on Separation Process

Debt and Capital Securities allocated to RBS N.V.

Appendices

Slide 26

Certain businesses have been transferred to

consortium members or third party acquirers

The RBS, Dutch State and Santander acquired

businesses have been “ring-fenced” within ABN

AMRO Bank N.V.

Financial separation, commercial separation and

technical separation are nearly completed

Capitalisation measures have been taken, and

further actions planned, by RBS and the Dutch State

to support the separation

ABN AMRO Group(1) has chosen a two-step

approach for the transfer of the Dutch State acquired

businesses to the direct, or indirect, control of the

Dutch State:

- Step 1: Legal Demerger

- Step 2: Legal Separation

The legal separation entails the transfer of the shares

of ABN AMRO II N.V. (to be renamed “ABN AMRO

Bank N.V.”) from ABN AMRO Holding N.V. to a new

State holding company, wholly-owned (directly or

indirectly) by the Dutch State

ABN AMRO Holding N.V. will rename to RBS

Holdings N.V.

October 2007 until Legal Demerger filing

(30 September 2009)

Step 1 : Legal Demerger process

(due to complete Q1 2010)(3)

Step 2 : Legal Separation process

(due two months after legal demerger)

The legal demerger means the legal transfer of (the

majority of the) Dutch State acquired businesses

from ABN AMRO Bank N.V. to a new legal entity,

ABN AMRO II N.V., where the new entity will initially

be a fully owned subsidiary of ABN AMRO Holding

N.V.

The legal demerger will happen by way of a Dutch

law governed statutory split-off (juridische afsplitsing)

and constitutes a transfer by universal title (overgang

onder algemene titel) of such assets, liabilities and

businesses(2)

The legal demerger proposal has been filed with the

Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce on 30 September

2009

Following a Declaration of Non-Objection (“DNO”) by

the Dutch Central Bank, the legal demerger can be

executed by notarial deed

Post execution of the legal demerger and transfer of

subsidiaries, ABN AMRO Bank N.V. (to be renamed

“The Royal Bank of Scotland N.V.” (“RBS N.V.”)) and

ABN AMRO II N.V. (to be renamed “ABN AMRO

Bank N.V.”) will operate under separate banking

licenses which are expected to be obtained from the

Dutch Central Bank in due course

RBS N.V. and ABN AMRO II N.V. (to be renamed

“ABN AMRO Bank N.V.”) also expect to obtain

separate credit ratings, effective once the legal

demerger has been executed

Notes

1. Including the entities ABN AMRO Holding N.V., ABN AMRO Bank N.V. to be renamed The Royal Bank of Scotland N.V. and ABN AMRO II N.V. to be renamed ABN AMRO Bank N.V.

and each of their subsidiaries

2. In addition, certain subsidiaries and certain assets and liabilities that will not transfer via legal demerger will separately be transferred on or around the execution of the legal demerger

using other transfer mechanisms such as a share transfer, novation and contract transfer

3. Subject to progression through Dutch legal process. This demerger overview refers only to Dutch and Belgian assets and liabilities. Acquired business in other countries will be

separated in accordance with mechanisms agreed as appropriate for each country.
