IMPORTANT INFORMATION: The Royal Bank of Scotland plc ("RBS plc") and The Royal
Bank of Scotland Group plc ("RBS Group") (collectively, the "RBS Entities")
have filed a registration statement (including a prospectus) with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for the offering of RBS ETNs to which
this communication may relate. Before you invest in any RBS ETNs, you should
read the relevant prospectus in such registration statement and other documents
that have been filed with the SEC for more complete information about the
relevant RBS Entities and offerings. You may get these documents for free by
visiting EDGAR on the SEC website at www.sec.gov. Alternatively, RBS plc, RBS
Securities Inc. or any dealer participating in the relevant offering will
arrange to send you the relevant prospectus and pricing supplements if you
request by calling 1-855-RBS-ETPS (toll-free).
The RBS ETNs are complex and not suitable for all investors. You should
carefully read the relevant pricing supplement and prospectus, including the
more detailed explanation of the risks involved in any investment in the RBS
ETNs as described in the 'Risk Factors' section of the pricing supplement,
before investing.
**The pricing supplements, including a description of the applicable index
methodology, can be found here: www.rbs.com/etnus and we can provide them to
you upon request. The RBS ETNs are relatively new products and any performance
prior to the live date of the index which the RBS ETN tracks is hypothetical
and does not reflect actual returns. No actual investment which allowed
tracking of the performance of any RBS index was possible before its live date.
The retrospectively calculated index performance contained herein is based on
criteria applied retroactively with the benefit of hindsight and knowledge of
factors that may have positively affected its performance, and cannot account
for all financial risk that may affect the actual performance of the RBS ETNs.
The actual performance of the RBS ETNs may vary significantly from the
retroactively calculated index performance data contained herein. Neither the
retrospectively calculated nor the historical index performance should be taken
as any indication of future performance of any index or any related RBS ETNs.
An investment in the RBS ETNs involves significant risks. The applicable
pricing supplement and prospectus for the RBS ETNs will describe material risks
related to an investment in RBS ETNs. These risks include the following:
RISK CONSIDERATIONS
Credit risk of the issuer and guarantor
RBS ETNs are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of RBS plc and are fully
and unconditionally guaranteed by RBS Group(1). If RBS plc fails to make any
required payments on the RBS ETNs, your receipt of such payment will depend on
the ability of RBS Group to pay its obligations as they become due.
In addition, unlike ordinary debt securities, the RBS ETNs are not principal
protected and do not pay interest. The RBS ETNs are not bank deposits and are
not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the
Deposit Insurance Fund or any other government agency.
Market risk
The return on an RBS ETN will depend on the performance of the underlying
market measure(s) to which the RBS ETNs is linked. You may lose all or a
significant amount of your investment in the RBS ETNs if the level(s) of the
underlying market measure(s) were to decrease substantially.
Investor fees
The daily redemption value is the amount payable at maturity or upon early
repurchase or redemption of your RBS ETNs and is reduced by the aggregate
investor fee applicable to your RBS ETNs. As a result, the level of the
underlying market measure(s) to which your RBS ETNs are linked must increase by
an amount sufficient to offset the aggregate investor fee in order for you to
receive at least the face amount of your investment at maturity or upon early
repurchase or redemption. If the level(s) of the underlying market measure(s)
were to decrease or not increase sufficiently, you would receive less, and
possibly significantly less, than your initial investment at maturity or upon
early repurchase or redemption.
Liquidity risk
Even though RBS ETNs are expected to be listed on a US securities exchange,
there is no guarantee that the listing will be maintained or that a secondary
market will develop. The liquidity of the RBS ETNs may therefore be limited
and/or vary over time. RBS plc is not required to maintain any listing of RBS
ETNs on any securities exchange.
Restrictions on your ability to offer RBS ETNs for repurchase by RBS plc.
Through your broker, you may offer RBS ETNs for repurchase by RBS plc subject
to certain restrictions and procedures described in the applicable pricing
supplement.
Call risk
RBS plc also has the right to redeem your RBS ETNs, in its sole discretion. If
RBS plc elects to redeem your RBS ETNs, you may not be able to reinvest your
proceeds in a comparable investment. Pursuant to our announced plan to exit the
structured retail investor products business, the likelihood that we will
redeem the ETNs prior to maturity has increased. See "Recent Developments" for
more information.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
On June 13, 2013, we announced that we would be exiting the structured retail
investor products business that is responsible for issuing and maintaining the
RBS ETNs, and that we expect to move such business into a runoff organization
which will go through a process of restructuring and / or business sales (the
"RBS Retail Investor Products Exit Plan"). The implementation of the RBS Retail
Investor Products Exit Plan increases the likelihood that the RBS ETNs will be
redeemed by us prior to maturity. We plan to continue to maintain and issue the
RBS ETNs, but our plans could change. We cannot give you any assurances as to
any minimum period of time that you may hold the RBS ETNs before we redeem them
at our option.
DEFINITIONS OF CERTAIN DEFINED TERMS USED HEREIN
Annualized Average represents the calculated hypothetical rate of return that,
if cumulatively applied to each relevant annual period during the time period
indicated, would result in the actual cumulative rate of return for the entire
period.
Maximum Drawdown represents the maximum percentage loss that the relevant index
incurred from its peak level to its lowest level during the time period
indicated. Maximum Performance represents the highest one-year returns, as
measured from 03/31 to 03/31 of each year during the period indicated.
Minimum Performance represents the lowest one-year returns, as measured from
03/31 to 03/31 of each year during the period indicated.
5-Year Volatility: Based on monthly returns over the last five years unless
stated otherwise (from most recent date indicated on slide) and expressed as
standard deviation percentage. Standard deviation is a measure of volatility,
and illustrates the extent of variation (whether higher or lower) that exists
from the average given set of results. A low standard deviation indicates that
the results tend to be very close to the average result (a low degree of
volatility). In contrast, a high standard deviation indicates that the results
are spread out over a large range of outcomes (a high degree of volatility).
Because the standard deviation is based on historical data, it may not predict
variability in annualized performance of the RBS ETNs in the future.
(1)Certain RBS ETNs were originally issued by The Royal Bank of Scotland N.V.
("RBS N.V."); however, as of December 10, 2012, RBS plc assumed the obligations
of RBS N.V. under those RBS ETNs and became the issuer of them.

Our trend-following strategies:
[] Track the return of a specific benchmark index or cash rate
[] Use a 100- or 200-Index business day simple moving average
[] Use a 3- or 5-Index business day period for trend confirmation
This graph illustrates the Trendpilot[TM] methodology based on hypothetical
movements in a Benchmark Index and its 100- or 200-Index business day simple
moving average. This slide does not demonstrate historical data, and is not an
indication of how any Index or Trendpilot[TM] methodology will perform in the
future. If neither of the conditions mentioned in the graph is satisfied, the
trend of the Benchmark Index will be the same as the trend of the Benchmark
Index on the immediately preceding Index business day. The Index will implement
any trend reversal at the open of trading on the second Index business day
immediately following the Index business day on which the Benchmark Index trend
switches from positive to negative or from negative to positive, as the case
may be.

The graphs, with respect to the RBS US Large Cap Trendpilot[TM] Index, reflect the deduction of the annual investor fee for the RBS US Large Cap Trendpilot[TM] ETNs, which is equal to 1.00% per annum when the RBS US Large Cap Trendpilot[TM] Index tracks the SandP 500[R] Total Return Index and 0.50% per annum when the RBS US Large Cap Trendpilot[TM] Index[TM] tracks the Cash Rate. The 1-year Annual Returns above illustrate the retrospectively calculated annual returns (and historical annual returns for the annual periods after the index live date) of the RBS US Large Cap Trendpilot[TM] Index less investor fees, and historical returns of the SandP 500[R] Total Return Index for the period presented. Annualized Returns in the graphs above illustrate the geometric average annualized return of each of the RBS US Large Cap Trendpilot[TM] Index and the SandP 500[R] Total Return Index, based on the cumulative returns of the applicable index over the relevant period. Geometric average annualized return is the calculated hypothetical rate of return that, if cumulatively applied to each relevant annual period would result in the actual cumulative rate of return for the entire 5- or 10-year period, as applicable. For example in the 5-Year graph, 06/30/14 data reflects the annual return required to be received in each annual period from 12/31/08 - 06/30/14 in order to provide the total return that hypothetically could have resulted from an investment bought on 12/31/08 and sold on 06/30/14, assuming annual compounding. Please note that because the RBS US Large Cap Trendpilot[TM] Index did not exist until 11/16/2010, an investment in such Index was not possible prior to that date. The SandP 500[R] data presented above is based on actual historical returns. See also Slide 1 **.

CERTAIN RISK CONSIDERATIONS: The RBS ETNs involve risks not associated with an
investment in conventional debt securities, including a possible loss of some
or all of your investment. The level of the relevant Index must increase by an
amount sufficient to offset the aggregate investor fee applicable to the RBS
ETNs in order for you to receive at least the principal amount of your
investment back at maturity or upon early repurchase or redemption. The RBS Oil
Trendpilot(TM) ETNs, the RBS Rogers Enhanced ETNs and the respective indices
that those ETNs track do not provide exposure to spot prices of the relevant
commodities and, consequently, may not be representative of an investment that
provides exposure to the relevant commodities or buying and holding the
relevant commodities. The prices of commodities are volatile and are affected
by numerous factors. Each Trendpilot[TM] Index may underperform its respective
Benchmark Index, and is expected to perform poorly in volatile markets. The RBS
China Trendpilot[TM] ETNs involve risks associated with an investment in emerging
markets, as well as currency exchange risk. The RBS US Large Cap Alternator
Index(TM) may underperform the SandP 500[R] Index or any Underlying Index. Even
though the RBS ETNs are listed on the NYSE Arca, a trading market may not
develop and the liquidity of the RBS ETNs may be limited and/or vary over time,
as RBS plc is not required to maintain any listing of the RBS ETNs. The
intraday indicative value and the daily redemption value are not the same as
the trading price or market price of the RBS ETNs in the secondary market. The
RBS ETNs are not principal protected and do not pay interest. Any payment on
the RBS ETNs is subject to the ability of RBS plc and RBS Group to pay their
respective obligations when they become due. You should carefully consider
whether the RBS ETNs are suited to your particular circumstances before you
decide to purchase them. We urge you to consult with your investment, legal,
accounting, tax and other advisors with respect to any investment in the RBS
ETNs.
The RBS ETNs are complex and not suitable for all investors. You should
carefully read the relevant pricing supplement and prospectus, including the
more detailed explanation of the risks involved in any investment in the RBS
ETNs as described in the "Risk Factors" section of the applicable pricing
supplement, before investing. The intraday indicative value and the daily
redemption value are not the same as the trading price or market price of the
RBS ETNs in the secondary market.
