Article 11 unaudited pro forma information 

Unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information

Basis of preparation

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information (the “unaudited pro forma financial information”) comprises the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as at 30 June 2011 (the “unaudited pro forma balance sheet”) and the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated income statements for the six month periods ended 30 June 2011 and 30 June 2010 and the years ended 31 December 2010, 31 December 2009 and 31 December 2008 (the “pro forma income statements”) based on the published audited and unaudited financial statements of RBS, prepared in accordance with IFRS, after giving effect to:

(a)  
the distribution of those ABN AMRO businesses attributable to Santander and the Dutch government (the “other Consortium Members”); and
(b)  
the divestment of certain businesses to meet the European Commission’s State Aid requirements (see below).

The distribution to other consortium members has now substantially completed following legal separation of ABN AMRO N.V. which took place on 1 April 2010. From that date, the results of ABN AMRO attributable to the other consortium members are classified as discontinued operations.  The income statement for 2009 has been represented accordingly.

To comply with the European Commission’s State Aid requirements, RBS has agreed to make a series of divestments to be completed within four years from December 2009, as follows:

·  
RBS Insurance
·  
Global Merchant Services (sold November 2010)
·  
RBS Sempra Commodities (acquired April 2008; majority sold during 2010)
·  
the RBS branch based business in England and Wales, the NatWest branch network in Scotland, along with the Direct SME customers across the UK (termed the ‘UK Retail and UK Corporate businesses outlined for disposal’)

Collectively, the above are defined as the ‘EC State Aid Divestments’.

The pro forma financial information has been prepared assuming the following:

·  
pro forma balance sheet: the distribution to the other Consortium members and EC State Aid Divestments had occurred on 30 June 2011

·  
pro forma income statements: the distribution to the other Consortium members had occurred on acquisition of ABN AMRO on 17 October 2007 and the EC State Aid Divestments had occurred on 1 January 2007

·  
sale proceeds in respect of the EC State Aid Divestments not yet completed are received in cash and are equal to the net asset values of the businesses to be disposed of

·  
the UK Retail and UK Corporate business outlined for disposal represents a carve-out from existing RBS businesses and therefore discrete financial information for this divestment which is factually supportable is not currently available.  Accordingly, the pro forma financial information in respect of the EC State Aid Divestments excludes this business.
