SUMMARY

The following summary does not contain all the information that may be important to you. You should read this summary together with the more detailed information that is contained in Product Supplement No. 2-III and in the accompanying Underlying Supplement, Prospectus and Prospectus Supplement. You should carefully consider, among other things, the matters set forth in “Risk Factors” in the Product Supplement No. 2-III, which are summarized on page 10 of this Pricing Supplement. In addition, we urge you to consult with your investment, legal, accounting, tax and other advisors with respect to any investment in the Securities.

What are the Securities?

The Securities are senior notes issued by us, The Royal Bank of Scotland N.V., and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by our parent company, RBS Holdings N.V. The Securities are linked to the performance of the S&P 500® Index, which we refer to as the Underlying Index. The Securities have a term of 5 years. The Securities are annual reset coupon securities paying an annual coupon, which is the lesser of the annual index return, which is based on the performance of the Underlying Index, or the maximum annual index return, subject to the minimum annual index return, as described below. The payment at maturity of the Securities is also determined based on the performance of the Underlying Index, subject to a cap, as described below. If the index return is less than 0% down to and including -20%, you will be entitled to receive, other than the coupon payments, only the principal amount of $1,000 per Security at maturity. In such a case, you will receive no return on your investment, other than the coupon payments, and you will not be compensated for any loss in value due to inflation and other factors relating to the value of money over time. If the index return is less than -20%, you will suffer a loss and you could lose at maturity up to 80% of your initial principal investment, and the coupon payments that you receive during the term of the Securities may not be sufficient to compensate you for such loss. If the index return is 0% or positive, you will receive, other than the coupon payments, only the principal amount of $1,000 per Security at maturity, regardless of how much or how little the value of the Underlying Index may appreciate above the initial value.

Any payment on the Securities is subject to the creditworthiness (ability to pay) of The Royal Bank of Scotland N.V. and RBS Holdings N.V. as guarantor.

What will I receive at maturity of the Securities and how is this amount calculated?

At maturity you will receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of Securities, a cash payment calculated as follows:

(1) If the index return is 0% or positive, $1,000; or

(2) If the index return is less than 0% down to and including -20%, $1,000; or

(3) If the index return is less than -20%, then $1,000 plus (index return + 20%) × 1,000.

Accordingly, if the index return is less than -20%, at maturity you will receive, other than the coupon payments, less than the principal amount of $1,000 per Security and you could lose at maturity up to 80% of your initial principal investment, and the coupon payments that you receive during the term of the Securities may not be sufficient to compensate you for such loss. If the index return is 0% or positive, you will never receive, other than the coupon payments, a payment at maturity greater than the principal amount of $1,000 per Security.

What is index return and how is it calculated?

The index return is the percentage change in the value of the Underlying Index, over the term of the Securities, calculated as:

Final Value – Initial Value

Initial Value

where,

the initial value is the closing value of the Underlying Index on the pricing date; and

THE ROYAL BANK OF SCOTLAND N.V.

Annual Reset Coupon Securities

the final value is the closing value of the Underlying Index on the determination date.

What coupon payments can I expect on the Securities?

Each coupon payment will equal the product of the principal amount and the applicable coupon rate. Coupon payments will be made annually on the anniversary of the settlement date; provided that if any such day is not a business day, that coupon payment will be made on the next succeeding business day but no interest will accrue from and after the scheduled coupon payment date until the date on which interest is paid. Interest payable on any coupon payment date is payable in arrears.

How is the coupon rate calculated?

For each observation period, the coupon rate, if the annual index return, which is based on the performance of the Underlying Index, is 0% or positive, the maximum annual index return, which is 9.00%, otherwise the minimum annual index return, which is 1.00%. For each observation period, the annual index return will be equal to:

Ending Annual Value – Starting Annual Value

Starting Annual Value

where,

the starting annual value is the closing value of the Underlying Index on the applicable observation date on which such observation period begins, subject to certain adjustments as described in the accompanying Product Supplement; provided that the Starting Annual Value for the first Observation Period will be equal to the closing value of the Underlying Index on the Pricing Date; and

the starting annual value is the closing value of the Underlying Index on the applicable observation date on which such Observation Period ends, subject to certain adjustments as described in the accompanying Product Supplement.

The coupon rate will always be positive and never less than the minimum annual index return of 1.00%, but will never be greater than the maximum annual index return of 9.00%, regardless of how much the value of the Underlying Index may appreciate above the starting annual value.

The observation periods are the following annual periods: (i) June 25, 2010 to and including June 27, 2011, (ii) June 28, 2011 to and including June 27, 2012, (iii), June 28, 2012 to and including June 26, 2013, (iv) June 27, 2013 to and including June 25, 2014 and (v) June 26, 2014 to and including June 25, 2015. The observation dates are June 27, 2011, June 27, 2012, June 26, 2013, June 25, 2014 and June 25, 2015, subject to postponement upon the occurrence of a market disruption event.

If a scheduled observation date is not a trading day, or if a market disruption event has occurred on such trading day, the observation date shall be the immediately succeeding trading day; provided that the observation date shall be no later than the second scheduled trading day prior to the end of the relevant observation period, notwithstanding the occurrence of a market disruption event on such second scheduled trading day or such second scheduled trading day is not a trading day. For information about what constitutes a market disruption event, see “Description of Securities — Market Disruption Events” in Product Supplement No. 2-III.

If a market disruption event occurs on such second scheduled trading day prior to the end of the relevant observation period or such scheduled trading day is not a trading day, the calculation agent will determine the ending annual value in accordance with the formula for calculating the value of the Underlying Index last in effect prior to the commencement of the market disruption event, using the ending annual value (or, if trading in the relevant securities has been materially suspended or materially limited, its good faith estimate of the ending annual value that would have prevailed but for such suspension or limitation) on such trading day of each security most recently comprising the Underlying Index.

THE ROYAL BANK OF SCOTLAND N.V.

Annual Reset Coupon Securities

Will I get my principal back at maturity?

You could lose a substantial portion of your principal investment in the Securities. Subject to the creditworthiness of The Royal Bank of Scotland N.V., as the issuer of the Securities, and RBS Holdings N.V., as the guarantor of the issuer’s obligations under the Securities, you will receive at maturity, other than the coupon payments, at least $200 per $1,000 principal amount of Securities, regardless of the closing value of the Underlying Index on the Determination Date. If the index return is less than -20% over the term of the Securities, you will lose some of your initial principal investment and you could lose at maturity as much as 80% of your initial principal investment, and the coupon payments that you receive during the term of the Securities may not be sufficient to compensate you for such loss.

However, if you sell the Securities prior to maturity, you will receive, other than the coupon payments, the market price for the Securities, which could be zero. There may be little or no secondary market for the Securities. Accordingly, you should be willing to hold your securities until maturity.

Can you give me examples of the payment at maturity?

Example 1: If, for example, in a hypothetical offering, the initial value is 840 and the final value is 1,344, then the index return would be calculated as follows:

Final Value – Initial Value

Initial Value

1,344 – 840 = 60.00%

840

In this hypothetical example, the index return is positive. Therefore, the payment at maturity will be the principal amount of $1,000 per Security. In this hypothetical example, the index return was 60.00% but you would have received, other than the coupon payments, no return over the term of the Securities.

Example 2: If, for example, in a hypothetical offering, the initial value is 840 and the final value is 798, then the index return would be calculated as follows:

Final Value – Initial Value

Initial Value

798 – 840 = -5.00%

840

In this hypothetical example, the index return is negative. Since the index return is less than 0% but more than -20% you would receive, other than the coupon payments, the principal amount of $1,000 per Security at maturity.

In this hypothetical example, the index return was -5.00% and you would not have lost any of your initial principal investment because the index return was negative but not less than -20%. In this hypothetical example you would not have received, other than the coupon payments, any return on your initial principal investment and you would not be compensated for any loss in value due to inflation and other factors relating to the value of money over time.

THE ROYAL BANK OF SCOTLAND N.V.

Annual Reset Coupon Securities

Example 3: If, for example, in a hypothetical offering, the initial value is 840 and the final value is 500, then the index return would be calculated as follows:

Final Value – Initial Value

Initial Value

500 – 840 = -40.48%

840

In this hypothetical example, the index return is negative and is less than -20%. Therefore, payment at maturity will be calculated as:

$1,000 + [(index return + 20%) × $1,000]

$1,000 + [(-40.48% + 20%) × $1,000] = $795.20

Therefore, in this hypothetical example, you would receive at maturity, other than the coupon payments, a total payment of $795.20 for each $1,000 principal amount of Securities. In this hypothetical example, the index return was -40.48% but you would have lost 20.48% of your initial principal investment over the term of the Securities, and the coupon payments that you would receive during the term of the Securities may not be sufficient to compensate you for such loss.

These examples are for illustrative purposes only. It is not possible to predict the final value of the Underlying Index on the determination date or at any other time during the term of the Securities. The initial value is subject to adjustment as set forth in “Description of Securities — Discontinuance of the Underlying Index; Alteration of Method of Calculation” in the related Product Supplement.

In this Pricing Supplement, we have also provided under the heading “Hypothetical Return Analysis of the Securities – Payment at Maturity” the total return of owning the Securities through maturity for various closing values of the Underlying Index on the determination date.

Can you give me examples of the coupon payments?

We have provided examples of hypothetical coupon payments payable on the Securities under the heading “Hypothetical Return Analysis of the Securities – Coupon Payments.”

Is there a limit on how much I can earn over the term of the Securities?

Yes. If the Securities are held to maturity and the Underlying Index is unchanged or appreciates, the total amount payable at maturity per Security, other than the coupon payments, is $1,000.00. This means no matter how much the Underlying Index may appreciate above the initial value, you will receive, other than the coupon payments, no return.

What is the minimum required purchase?

You may purchase Securities in minimum denominations of $1,000 or in integral multiples thereof.

Is there a secondary market for Securities?

The Securities will not be listed on any securities exchange. Accordingly, there may be little or no secondary market for the Securities and, as such, information regarding independent market pricing for the Securities may be extremely limited. You should be willing to hold your Securities until the maturity date.

Although it is not required to do so, we have been informed by our affiliate that when this offering is complete, it intends to make purchases and sales of the Securities from time to time in off-exchange transactions. If our affiliate does make such a market in the Securities, it may stop doing so at any time.

THE ROYAL BANK OF SCOTLAND N.V.

Annual Reset Coupon Securities

In connection with any secondary market activity in the Securities, our affiliate may post indicative prices for the Securities on a designated website or via Bloomberg. However, our affiliate is not required to post such indicative prices and may stop doing so at any time. Investors are advised that any prices shown on any website or Bloomberg page are indicative prices only and, as such, there can be no assurance that any trade could be executed at such prices. Investors should contact their brokerage firm for further information.

In addition, the issue price of the Securities includes the selling agents’ commissions paid with respect to the Securities and the cost of hedging our obligations under the Securities. The cost of hedging includes the profit component that our affiliate has charged in consideration for assuming the risks inherent in managing the hedging of the transactions. The fact that the issue price of the Securities includes these commissions and hedging costs is expected to adversely affect the secondary market prices of the Securities. See “Risk Factors — The Inclusion of Commissions and Cost of Hedging in the Issue Price is Likely to Adversely Affect Secondary Market Prices” and “Use of Proceeds” in the accompanying Product Supplement No. 2-III.

What is the relationship between The Royal Bank of Scotland N.V., RBS Holdings N.V. and RBS Securities Inc.?

Tell me more about The Royal Bank of Scotland N.V. and RBS Holdings N.V.

The Royal Bank of Scotland N.V. is the new name of ABN AMRO Bank N.V.

RBS Holdings N.V. is the new name of ABN AMRO Holding N.V.

On February 6, 2010, ABN AMRO Bank N.V. changed its name to The Royal Bank of Scotland N.V. and on April 1, 2010 ABN AMRO Holding N.V. changed its name to RBS Holdings N.V.

The name changes are not changes of the legal entities that will issue and guarantee, respectively, the Securities referred to herein, and the name changes do not affect any of the terms of the Securities. The Securities will continue to be issued by The Royal Bank of Scotland N.V. and to be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by The Royal Bank of Scotland N.V.’s parent company, RBS Holdings N.V.

While the name “ABN AMRO Bank N.V.” is used by a separate legal entity, which is owned by the State of the Netherlands (the “Dutch State”), neither the separate legal entity named ABN AMRO Bank N.V. nor the Dutch State will, in any way, guarantee or otherwise support the obligations under the Securities.

The Royal Bank of Scotland N.V. and RBS Holdings N.V. are both affiliates of The Royal Bank of Scotland plc and The Royal Bank of Scotland Group plc; however, none of The Royal Bank of Scotland plc, The Royal Bank of Scotland Group plc or the UK government, in any way, guarantees or otherwise supports the obligations under the Securities.

RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the risks of the Securities to which this Pricing Supplement relates and whether these Securities are suited to your particular circumstances before deciding to purchase them. It is important that prior to investing in these Securities you read the Underlying Supplement No. 2-IV and Product Supplement No. 2-III related to such Securities and the accompanying Prospectus and Prospectus Supplement to understand the actual terms of and the risks associated with the Securities. In addition, we urge you to consult with your investment, legal, accounting, tax and other advisors with respect to any investment in the Securities.

Market Risk, Capped Principal Return

Other than the coupon payments payable on the coupon payment dates, the only return, if any, that you will be entitled to receive on the Securities will be the payment at maturity. If the index return is less than 0% down to -20%, you will be entitled to receive, other than the coupon payments, only the principal amount of $1,000 per Security at maturity. In such a case, you will receive no return on your principal investment, other than the coupon payments, and you will not be compensated for any loss in value due to inflation and other factors relating to the value of money over time. If the index return decreases more than 20%, you could lose up to 80% of your initial principal investment, and the coupon payments that you receive during the term of the Securities may not be sufficient to compensate you for su ch loss. If the index return is zero (0%) or positive, you will receive, other than the coupon payments, no return regardless of how much the Underlying Index may appreciate above its initial value.

Your Yield May Be Less Than the Yield on a Conventional Debt Security of Comparable Maturity

The yield that you will receive on the Securities on the coupon payment dates, together with any payment that you receive at maturity, may be less than the return you would earn if you purchased a conventional debt security with the same maturity date. As a result, your investment in the Securities may not reflect the full opportunity cost to you when you consider factors that affect the time value of money, including inflation.

Credit Risk

The Securities are issued by RBS N.V. and guaranteed by RBS Holdings N.V., RBS N.V.’s parent company. As a result, investors in the Securities assume the credit risk of RBS N.V. and that of RBS Holdings N.V. in the event that RBS N.V. defaults on its obligations under the Securities. This means that if RBS N.V. and RBS Holdings N.V. fail, become insolvent, or are otherwise unable to pay their obligations under the Securities, you could lose some or all of your initial principal investment.

Although We Are a Bank, the Securities 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

The Securities are our obligations but are not bank deposits. In the event of our insolvency the Securities will rank equally with our other unsecured, unsubordinated obligations and will not have the benefit of any insurance or guarantee of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, The Deposit Insurance Fund or any other governmental agency.

Principal Risk

Return of principal on the Securities is only guaranteed up to $200 per $1,000 principal amount of Securities. Any payment required by the terms of the Securities is subject to our creditworthiness and the creditworthiness of Holdings. If the index return decreases by more than 20% during the term of the Securities, the amount of cash paid to you at maturity will be less than the principal amount of the Securities, subject to a minimum return of $200 per $1,000 principal amount of Securities.

Liquidity Risk

The Securities will not be listed on any securities exchange. Accordingly, there may be little or no secondary market for the Securities and information regarding independent market pricing of the Securities may be very limited or non-existent. The value of the Securities in the secondary market, if any, will be subject to many unpredictable factors, including then prevailing market conditions.

THE ROYAL BANK OF SCOTLAND N.V.

Annual Reset Coupon Securities

It is important to note that many factors will contribute to the secondary market value of the Securities, and you may not receive your full principal back if the Securities are sold prior to maturity. Such factors include, but are not limited to, time to maturity, the level of the Underlying Index, volatility and interest rates.

In addition, the price, if any, at which our affiliate or another party is willing to purchase Securities in secondary market transactions will likely be lower than the issue price, since the issue price included, and secondary market prices are likely to exclude, commissions, discounts or mark-ups paid with respect to the Securities, as well as the cost of hedging our obligations under the Securities.

Holdings of the Securities by Our Affiliates and Future Sales

Certain of our affiliates may purchase for investment the portion of the Securities that has not been purchased by investors in a particular offering of Securities, which initially they intend to hold for investment purposes. As a result, upon completion of such an offering, our affiliates may own up to 15% of the aggregate face amount of the Securities. Circumstances may occur in which our interests or those of our affiliates could be in conflict with your interests. For example, our affiliates may attempt to sell the Securities that they had been holding for investment purposes at the same time that you attempt to sell your Securities, which could depress the price, if any, at which you can sell your Securities. Moreover, the liquidity of the market for the Securities, if any, could be substantially reduced as a result of our affiliates holdi ng the Securities. In addition, our affiliates could have substantial influence over any matter subject to consent of the security holders.

Potential Conflicts of Interest

We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the Securities, including acting as calculation agent. In performing these duties, the economic interests of the calculation agent and other affiliates of ours are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in the Securities. While the Securities are outstanding, we or any of our affiliates may carry out hedging activities related to the Securities, including in the stocks that comprise the Underlying Index or instruments related to the Underlying Index. We or our affiliates may also trade in the stocks that comprise the Underlying Index or instruments related to the Underlying Index or the stocks that comprise the Underlying Index from time to time. Any of these activities could affect the value of the Underlying Index and, therefore, the value of the Securities.

You Will Not Have Rights in the Stocks that Comprise the Underlying Index

As an owner of the Securities, you will not have rights that holders of the stocks that comprise the Underlying Index have, including the right to vote or receive dividends.

Uncertain Tax Treatment

Please read carefully the section in this Pricing Supplement entitled “United States Federal Income Taxation.” Although the tax consequences of an investment in the Securities are uncertain, we believe it is reasonable to treat the Securities as prepaid financial contracts for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Due to the absence of authorities that directly address instruments that are similar to the Securities, significant aspects of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Securities are uncertain. We do not plan to request a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”), and the IRS or a court might not agree with the treatment described herein. Accordingly, you should consult your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Securities (including possible alternative treatments, some of which are discussed below) and with respect to any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.

Recent Tax Developments

Recently enacted legislation requires certain individuals who hold “debt or equity interests” in any “foreign financial institution” that are not “regularly traded on an established securities market” to report information about such holdings on their U.S. federal income tax returns, generally for tax years beginning in 2011, unless a regulatory exemption is provided. Prospective investors should consult their tax advisors regarding this legislation.

HYPOTHETICAL RETURN ANALYSIS OF THE SECURITIES

Payment at Maturity

The following table and examples illustrate potential return scenarios, with respect to the payment at maturity, on a Security that is held to maturity by an investor who purchases the Securities on the original issue date. These examples are based on various assumptions, including hypothetical values of the Underlying Index, set forth below. We cannot, however, predict the value of the Underlying Index on the determination date or at any other time in the future. Therefore, the table and examples set forth below are for illustrative purposes only and the returns, with respect to the payment at maturity, set forth may not be the actual returns applicable to a holder of the Securities. Moreover, the Underlying Index may not appreciate or depreciate over the term of the Securities in accordance wit h any of the hypothetical examples below, and the size and frequency of any fluctuations in the value of the Underlying Index over the term of the Securities, which we refer to as the volatility of the Underlying Index, may be significantly different than the volatility implied by any of these examples.

(a) The index return for each $1,000 principal amount of Securities will be equal to:

Final Value – Initial Value

Initial Value

where,

•

the initial value is the closing value of the Underlying Index on the pricing date; and

•

the final value is the closing value of the Underlying Index on the determination date.

(b)

This column shows the cash return you would receive if there was no annual coupon or buffer and your payment at maturity directly reflected the performance of the Underlying Index. The buffer is 20% and the annual coupon is, for each of the first 4 observation periods, 1.00%, and for the fifth observation period, if the hypothetical index return is 0% or positive, the maximum annual index return (9.00%), otherwise the minimum annual index return (1.00%).

(c)	At maturity you will receive, other than the coupon payments, for each $1,000 principal amount of Securities, a cash payment calculated as follows:

(1)

if the index return is 0% or positive, $1,000;

(2)

if the index return is less than 0% and down to and including -20%, $1,000; and

(3)

if the index return is less than -20%, $1,000 plus [(index return + 20%) x $1,000].

You could lose a substantial portion of your principal investment in the Securities. If the index return is less than -20% you could lose at maturity up to 80% of your initial principal investment, and the coupon payments that you receive during the term of the Securities may not be sufficient to compensate you for such loss. In addition, you will never receive, other than the coupon payments, a payment at maturity greater than the principal amount of $1,000 per Security.

(d)	The total return presented is exclusive of any tax consequences of owning the Securities. You should consult your tax advisor regarding whether owning the Securities is appropriate for your tax situation. See the sections titled “Risk Factors” and “Taxation” in this Pricing Supplement.

(e)	Represents the percentage total return on each Security.

Coupon Payments

Example 1: If, for example, in a hypothetical offering, for the first observation period, the starting annual value is 840, the ending annual value is 1,000, the maximum annual index return is 9.00% and the minimum annual index return is 1.00%, then the annual index return would be calculated as follows:

Ending Annual Value – Starting Annual Value

Starting Annual Value

1,000 – 840 = 19.04%

840

In this hypothetical example, the annual index return is positive. Therefore, the coupon payment for the observation period will be $1,000 times the maximum annual index return of 9.00%, which is $90.00.

In this hypothetical example, the annual index return was 19.04% but you would have received an annual coupon of 9.00% for the observation period. If the annual index return is greater than the maximum annual index return, you will receive the maximum annual index return regardless of how much or how little the Underlying Index appreciates over the starting annual value.

Example 2: If, for example, in the same hypothetical offering, for the second observation period, the starting annual value is 1,000, the ending annual value is 1,050, the maximum annual index return is 9.00% and the minimum annual index return is 1.00%, then the annual index return would be calculated as follows:

Ending Annual Value – Starting Annual Value

Starting Annual Value

1,050 – 1,000 = 5.00%

1,000

Example 3: If, for example, in the same hypothetical offering, for the third observation period, the starting annual value is 1,050, the ending annual value is 1,050, the maximum annual index return is 9.00% and the minimum annual index return is 1.00%, then the annual index return would be calculated as follows:

Ending Annual Value – Starting Annual Value

Starting Annual Value

1,050 – 1,050 = 0.00%

1,050

In this hypothetical example, the annual index return is 0%. Therefore, the coupon payment for the observation period will be $1,000 times the maximum annual index return of 9.00%, which is $90.00.

THE ROYAL BANK OF SCOTLAND N.V.

Annual Reset Coupon Securities

Example 4: If, for example, in the same hypothetical offering, for the fourth observation period, the starting annual value is 1,050, the ending annual value is 750, the maximum annual index return is 9.00% and the minimum annual index return is 1.00%, then the annual index return would be calculated as follows:

Ending Annual Value – Starting Annual Value

Starting Annual Value

750 – 1,050 = -28.57%

1,050

In this hypothetical example, the annual index return is negative and less than the minimum annual index return of 1.00%. Therefore, the coupon payment for the observation period will be $1,000 times the minimum annual index return of 1.00%, which is $10.00.

In this hypothetical example, the annual index return was -28.57% but you would have received an annual coupon of 1.00% for the observation period. If the annual index return is less than the minimum annual index return, you will receive the minimum annual index return regardless of how much or how little the Underlying Index depreciates over the starting annual value.

UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAXATION

The following is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of ownership and disposition of the Securities. It applies only to an investor who holds the Securities as capital assets within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended to the date hereof (the “Code”). This discussion is based on the Code, administrative pronouncements, judicial decisions and currently effective and proposed Treasury regulations, changes to any of which subsequent to the date of this Pricing Supplement may affect the tax consequences described below, possibly with retroactive effect. It does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to an investor in light of the investor’s particular circumstances or to ce rtain types of investors subject to special treatment under the U.S. federal income tax laws, such as certain former citizens or residents of the United States, certain financial institutions, real estate investment trusts, regulated investment companies, tax-exempt entities, dealers and certain traders in securities, partnerships or other entities classified as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes, persons who hold the Securities as a part of a hedging transaction, straddle, conversion or integrated transaction, U.S. holders (as defined below) who have a “functional currency” other than the U.S. dollar, or individual non-U.S. investors who are present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year in which their Securities are sold or retired.

In addition, we will not attempt to ascertain whether any entity included in the Underlying Index would be treated as a “passive foreign investment company” (a “PFIC”) within the meaning of Section 1297 of the Code or as a “United States real property holding corporation” (a “USRPHC”) within the meaning of Section 897 of the Code. If any such entity were so treated, certain adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences might apply, to a U.S. holder in the case of a PFIC and to a non-U.S. holder in the case of a USRPHC, upon the sale, exchange or retirement of a Security. You should refer to information filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission or the equivalent governmental authori ty by such entities and consult your tax adviser regarding the possible consequences to you if any such entity is or becomes a PFIC or a USRPHC.

Tax Treatment of the Securities

Although the tax consequences of an investment in the Securities are uncertain, we believe it is reasonable to treat the Securities as prepaid financial contracts for U.S. federal income tax purposes, with the consequences described below. Due to the absence of authorities that directly address instruments that are similar to the Securities, significant aspects of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Securities are uncertain. We do not plan to request a ruling from the IRS, and the IRS or a court might not agree with the treatment described herein. Accordingly, you should consult your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Securities (including possible alternative treatments, some of which are discussed below) and with respect to any tax consequences arising under the l aws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction. Unless otherwise stated, the following discussion assumes that the treatment of the Securities as prepaid financial contracts will be respected.

Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders

You are a “U.S. holder” if, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, you are a beneficial owner of the Securities who is: (i) a citizen or resident of the United States; (ii) a corporation created or organized under the laws of the United States or any political subdivision thereof; or (iii) an estate or trust the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source.

Tax Treatment Prior to Maturity. You should be taxable on the annual coupon payments as they are received or accrued in accordance with your normal method of accounting for such payments for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Sale, Exchange or Retirement of the Securities. Upon a sale, exchange or retirement of the Securities, you will recognize taxable gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized on such sale, exchange or retirement and your tax basis in the Securities. The amount realized may not include the portion of the payment you receive for accrued but unpaid annual coupon payments, which may be treated like a payment of such amounts. Your tax basis in the Securities should equal the amount you paid to acquire them. This gain or loss generally should be capital gain or loss and should

be long-term capital gain or loss if you have held the Securities for more than one year, subject to the potential application of the “constructive ownership” regime discussed below. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to certain limitations.

Possible Alternative Tax Treatments of an Investment in the Securities. Due to the absence of authorities that directly address the proper tax treatment of the Securities, the IRS or a court might not uphold the treatment described above. Alternative U.S. federal income tax treatments of the Securities are possible that, if applied, could materially and adversely affect the timing and/or character of income or loss with respect to the Securities. It is possible, for example, that the Securities could be treated as debt instruments issued by us. Under this treatment, the Securities would be governed by Treasury regulations relating to the taxation of contingent payment debt instruments. In that event, even if you are a cash-method taxpayer, in each year that you held the Securities you woul d be required to accrue into income “original issue discount” based on our comparable yield for similar non-contingent debt, determined as of the time of issuance of the Securities, and then make adjustments as actual payments are received. In addition, any income on the sale, exchange or retirement of the Securities would be treated as ordinary in character. Moreover, if you were to recognize a loss above certain thresholds, you could be required to file a disclosure statement with the IRS.

Alternatively, if a “pass-thru entity” (such as a Fund) is included in the Underlying Index, the Securities could be treated as “constructive ownership transactions” within the meaning of Section 1260 of the Code, in which case the tax consequences of sale, exchange or retirement of the Security could be affected materially and adversely. If a Security were treated in whole or in part as a constructive ownership transaction, all or a portion of any long-term capital gain you would otherwise recognize on a sale, exchange or retirement of the Security would be recharacterized as ordinary income to the extent such gain exceeded the “net underlying long-term capital gain.” Under Section 1260, the net underlying long-term capital gain is generally the net long-term capital gain a taxpayer would have recognized by i nvesting in the underlying pass-thru entity at the inception of the constructive ownership transaction and selling that investment on the date the constructive ownership transaction is closed (i.e., at maturity or earlier disposition). Assuming Section 1260 were to apply to a Security, it is unclear how the net underlying long-term capital gain would be computed. Unless otherwise established by clear and convincing evidence, the net underlying long-term capital gain is treated as zero. Any long-term capital gain recharacterized as ordinary income under Section 1260 would be treated as accruing at a constant rate over the period you held the Security, and you would be subject to an interest charge in respect of the deemed tax liability on the income treated as accruing in prior tax years.

Other U.S. federal income tax characterizations of the Securities might also require you to include amounts in income during the term of the Securities and/or might treat all or a portion of the gain or loss on the sale or settlement of the Securities as ordinary income or loss or as short-term capital gain or loss, without regard to how long you held the Securities. For instance, in the case of any reconstitution, rebalancing or recomposition of the Underlying Index, change in methodology of calculating the index or substitution of a successor index could be treated as a “deemed” taxable exchange that could cause you to recognize gain or loss (subject, in the case of loss, to possible application of the “wash sale” rules) as if you had sold or exchanged the Securities.

In December 2007, Treasury and the IRS released a notice requesting comments on various issues regarding the U.S. federal income tax treatment of “prepaid forward contracts” and similar instruments, such as the Securities. The notice focuses in particular on whether to require holders of these instruments to accrue income over the term of their investment. It also asks for comments on a number of related topics, including the character of income or loss with respect to these instruments; the relevance of factors such as the nature of the underlying property to which the instruments are linked; and whether these instruments are or should be subject to the “constructive ownership” regime discussed above. While the notice requests comments on appropriate transition rules and effective dates, any Treasury regulations or other guidance promulgated after consideration of these issues could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the Securities, possibly with retroactive effect.

You should consult your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Securities, including possible alternative treatments and the issues presented by this notice, as well as any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.

Recent Tax Developments

Recently enacted legislation requires certain individuals who maintain certain “financial accounts” with a “foreign financial institution” to report information about such holdings on their U.S. federal income tax returns, unless a regulatory exemption is provided. Prospective investors should consult their tax advisors regarding this legislation.

Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders

You are a “non- U.S. holder” if, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, you are a beneficial owner of the Securities who is: (i) a nonresident alien individual, (ii) a foreign corporation or (iii) a foreign estate or trust.

Tax Treatment Prior to Maturity. Subject to the discussion regarding possible alternative treatments and the backup withholding and information reporting rules below, you should not be subject to U.S. federal income tax with respect to the annual coupon payments, though you may be required to establish you are not a U.S. person, unless such payments are effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States.

Sale, Exchange or Retirement of the Securities. Any gain from the sale, exchange or retirement of the Securities should not be subject to U.S. federal income tax, including withholding tax, unless such gain is effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States, as described below.

Tax Consequences under Possible Alternative Treatments. If the Securities were treated as indebtedness, any income from the Securities would not be subject to U.S. federal income tax, including withholding tax, provided generally that (i) you certified on IRS Form W-8BEN, under penalties of perjury, that you are not a United States person and otherwise satisfied applicable requirements, and (ii) any income from the Securities was not effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States.

As described above under “—Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders—Possible Alternative Tax Treatments of an Investment in the Securities,” in December 2007, Treasury and the IRS released a notice requesting comments on various issues regarding the U.S. federal income tax treatment of “prepaid forward contracts” and similar instruments, such as the Securities. The notice focuses, among other things, on the degree, if any, to which income realized with respect to such instruments by non-U.S. persons should be subject to withholding tax. It is possible that any Treasury regulations or other guidance promulgated after consideration of these issues might require non-U.S. holders to accrue income, subject to withholding tax, over the term of the Securities, possibly on a retroactive basis. You should consult your tax advi ser regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Securities, including possible alternative treatments and the issues presented by this notice.

Income Effectively Connected with a Trade or Business in the United States. If you are engaged in a trade or business in the United States, and income from the Securities is effectively connected with your conduct of that trade or business, you generally will be taxed in the same manner as a U.S. holder. In this case, you will be required to provide a properly executed IRS Form W-8ECI in order to claim an exemption from withholding. If this paragraph applies to you, you should consult your tax adviser with respect to other U.S. tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of the Securities, including the possible imposition of a 30% branch profits tax if you are a corporation.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

The proceeds received from a sale, exchange or retirement of the Securities will be subject to information reporting unless you are an exempt recipient and may also be subject to backup withholding at the rate specified in the Code if you fail to provide certain identifying information (such as an accurate taxpayer identification number, if you are a U.S. holder) or meet certain other conditions. If you are a non-U.S. holder and you provide a properly executed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, as applicable, you will generally establish an exemption from backup withholding.

Amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules are not additional taxes and may be refunded or credited against your U.S. federal income tax liability, provided the required information is furnished to the IRS.
