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 Index may underperform
the  Benchmark  Index,  and is expected to perform  poorly in volatile  markets.
Liquidity of the market for RBS ETNs may vary over time. The RBS ETNs do not pay
interest.  Any  payment on the RBS ETNs is  subject to the  ability of The Royal
Bank of Scotland  N.V.  (RBS N.V.),  as the issuer,  and RBS Holdings  N.V. (RBS
Holdings),  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.
