Dear Chris,


 


On behalf of The Royal

your appointment as a member of the supervisory board (the “Supervisory Board”) of the Companies (the “Appointment”).
The Supervisory Boards of RBS Holdings N.V. (the “Holding Company”) and The Royal Bank of Scotland N.V. (the
“Bank”) have the same composition and meet simultaneously. Since 4 April 1997 the Holding Company owns all of
the Bank’s shares. Furthermore, the Bank owns all of the RBS Hollandsche N.V.’s shares. The terms of the Appointment
are set out below. The definition of Appointment is deemed to include any renewal of the Appointment.

		3.	In your role as member of the Supervisory Board of the Companies you will not be subject to any
right of supervision, direction or control by the Companies as to the manner in which you perform such role but you will otherwise

the Banking Code (Netherlands Bankers’ Association). This Service Agreement does therefore not constitute an employment agreement
