Learn About RBS ETNs The RBS Rogers Enhanced Precious Metals Exchange Traded
Notes ("RBS ETNs") track the RICI Enhanced (SM) Precious Metals Total Return
Index (the "Index") which provides exposure to 4 commodities in the precious
metals futures market, plus the rate of interest that could be earned on cash
collateral invested in Treasury Bills. The Index, designed in cooperation with
prominent stock market and commodities investor Jim Rogers and RBS, attempts to
track price changes for precious metals commodities.


The RBS ETNs are designed to provide commodity exposure on the basis of expected
economic global demand. By investing in futures contracts with varying
maturities, the Index seeks to maximize returns when there are significant price
differences between near-dated and future-dated commodity contracts. This is
unlike many commodity-linked investments in the market today which invest solely
in front month contracts. A special rollover calendar defines specific selection
criteria for each commodity contract, including term structure, seasonality and
liquidity.


The individual commodity weightings are determined on the basis of the expected
economic global demand for each commodity and are reset to their target weights
on a semi-annual basis. Jim Rogers and the Index Committee annually review and
adjust, as necessary, the composition of the Index.

"The Annual Investor Fee" accrues on a daily basis.

"Daily Redemption Value" refers to the price per ETN at which The Royal Bank of
Scotland plc shall repurchase any ETNs offered by investors for repurchase
(provided that at least 20,000 ETNs are offered for repurchase) or shall redeem
any ETNs called by it for redemption at its option, in each case, subject to the
terms and conditions described in the pricing supplement and prospectus. The
amount reflects the Daily Redemption Value at the close of the market on the
prior trading day in the United States.

"Shares Outstanding" means to the number of ETN units outstanding at the close
of market on the prior trading day in the United States. "Issue Size (USD
000's)" means an amount equal to the Daily Redemption Value multiplied by Shares
Outstanding.

All Return information presented above is updated once a month and is presented
as of the end of previous calendar month.

"Index" refers to the percentage change in the closing level of the Index from
the month end of the relevant period (e.g., closing level of the Index from
month-end, 1 mo., 3 mos., 6 mos. prior, as the case may be) through the market
close at the end of the previous calendar month.

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 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 ETNs and the Index
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 spot prices of the relevant commodities or buying and holding the
relevant commodities. The prices of commodities are volatile and are affected by
numerous factors. The Index may include futures contracts on non-U.S. exchanges
and trading on such exchanges may be subject to different and greater risks than
trading on U.S. exchanges. 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 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, as
the issuer, and RBS Group, as the guarantor, 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 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.

(including a prospectus) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)
for the offering of RBS ETNs to which this communication relates. Before you
invest in any RBS ETNs, you should read the prospectus in that registration
statement and other documents that have been filed by RBS plc and RBS Group with
