Business (a) Form and Year of Organization Robinsons Bank Corporation (“Bank”), as it is today, is the surviving entity of the merger on May 25, 2011 of “Robinsons Savings Bank Corp.”, a savings bank organized on October 8, 1997 and “Robinsons Bank Corporation”, formerly The Royal Bank of Scotland (Philippines), Inc., a commercial bank which was originally established on April 28, 1966. (b) Bankruptcy, receivership and similar proceedings The Bank is not subject to any bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceedings. (c) Material reclassification, Merger, Consolidation, or Purchase or Sale of Assets Robinsons Savings Bank, a bank which was 100% owned by JG Summit Capital Services Corporation (JGSCSC), opened its doors to business in November 1997. It has grown from a small savings bank with a single branch which soon increased to four (4) and by end of 2019 to a 161 branches-strong (148 of which belongs to the Bank and 13 to its subsidiary) and 7 branch-lites (3 for the Bank and 4 for LSB) commercial bank through organic expansion, strategic acquisitions and merger. The Bank started to grow its branches by bidding and winning from PDIC eight (8) branches of the former Prime Savings Bank. Then in 2002, Robinsons Savings Bank acquired nineteen (19) branches of ABN Amro Savings Bank (Philippines), its licenses to operate branches and its bank deposits. This acquisition made Robinsons Savings Bank the country’s seventh largest thrift bank during the same year. On April 28, 2010, the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) approved the acquisition of The Royal Bank of Scotland (Philippines), Inc., a commercial bank, by JGSCSC and Robinsons Holdings, Inc. (RHI) on a 60:40 ratio. On August 26, 2010, The Royal Bank of Scotland (Philippines), Inc. was renamed as “Robinsons Bank Corporation”. And on December 17, 2010, the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) endorsed to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) the merger between Robinsons Bank Corporation, the commercial bank, and Robinsons Savings Bank, the savings bank, with Robinsons Bank Corporation as the surviving entity. On May 25, 2011, the SEC approved the merger of Robinsons Bank Corporation and Robinsons Savings Bank, with the latter as the surviving entity. With this merger, the Bank became the 14th largest amongst commercial banks and the 31st largest bank in the Philippine banking system by the end of 2010. In December 2012, Robinsons Bank Corporation acquired Legazpi Savings Bank, Inc. With the acquisition, Legazpi Savings Bank (LSB) became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Robinsons Bank Corporation (hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Group”). The acquisition of LSB opened up business lines and helped grew the target market for Robinsons Bank in the Bicol region. Moreover, this has allowed the Bank to operate its countryside banking through LSB’s branches and branch-lite units. On June 27, 2018, the Bank’s Board of Directors approved the increase of the Bank’s Authorized Capital Stock from Php 15.00 billion to Php 27.00 billion divided into 2,700,000,000 common shares at Php10.00 par value per share, or a net increase of Php12.00 billion divided into 1,200,000,000 common shares at Php10.00 par value per *SGVFSM006477* - 2 - share.
