Securities have a term of three months, so you will receive a pro rated
amount of this per annum rate based on such three-month period as shown in
the table above under “Coupon Rate”.
|
|||||||
Offerings:
|
This Term
Sheet relates to five separate offerings of securities (“the Securities”).
Each Security offered is linked to one, and only one, of the Underlying
Shares. The Underlying Shares are set forth in the table above. You may
participate in any of the Securities offerings or, at your election, in
two or more of the offerings. This Term Sheet does not, however, allow you
to purchase a Security linked to a basket of some or all of the Underlying
Shares described above. Each Security has a term of three
months.
|
||||||
Coupon
Payment Dates:
|
Coupons on
the Securities are payable monthly in arrears on the 14th
day of each month starting on June 14, 2010 and ending on the Maturity
Date.

at Maturity:

The payment
at maturity for each Security is based on the performance of the

(i)
If the closing price of the applicable Underlying Shares has not fallen
below the applicable Knock-In Level on any trading day from but not
including the Pricing Date to and including the Determination Date, we
will pay you the face amount of each Security in cash.
(ii) If
the closing price of the applicable Underlying Shares has fallen below the
applicable Knock-In Level on any trading day from but not including the
Pricing Date to and including the Determination Date:
(a) we
will deliver to you a number of the applicable Underlying Shares equal to
the applicable Redemption Amount, in the event that the closing price of
the applicable Underlying Shares on the Determination Date is below the
applicable Initial Price; or
(b) we
will pay you the face amount of each Security in cash, in the event that
the closing price of the applicable Underlying Shares on the Determination
Date is at or above the applicable Initial
Price.
You will
receive cash in lieu of fractional shares. If due to events beyond our
reasonable control, as determined by us in our sole discretion, the
applicable Underlying Shares are not available for delivery at maturity we
may pay you, in lieu of the applicable Redemption Amount, the cash value
of the applicable Redemption Amount, determined by multiplying the
applicable Redemption Amount by the closing price of the applicable
Underlying Shares on the Determination Date.
Any payment
at maturity is subject to the creditworthiness of The Royal Bank of
Scotland N.V. and RBS Holdings N.V., as guarantor.

|
(a)
|
Based on the
assumptions set forth above, if the closing price of the Underlying Shares
falls below $36.00 on any trading day during the knock-in period and, in
addition, the closing price of the Underlying Shares is less than $45.00
on the determination date, the payment at maturity will be made in
Underlying Shares. For determining the value of the payment at maturity,
we have assumed that the closing price of the Underlying Shares will be
the same on the maturity date as on the determination
date.
|
(b)
|
Coupons on
the Securities will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve
30-day months or, in the case of an incomplete month, the number of actual
days elapsed. Accordingly, depending on the number of days in any monthly
coupon payment period, the coupon payable in such period and,
consequently, the total coupons payable over the term of the Securities,
may be less than the amount reflected in this
column.
|
|
(c) 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” in this Term Sheet and the accompanying Product
Supplement No. 1-IV and “United States Federal Taxation” and “Taxation in
the Netherlands” in the accompanying Prospectus
Supplement.
|
(d)
|
Based on the
assumptions set forth above, if the closing price of the Underlying Shares
never falls below $36.00 on any trading day during the knock-in period,
the payment at maturity will be made in
cash.
