    BANCO SANTANDER CENTRAL HISPANO, S.A. Acquisition of certain businesses of ABN AMRO Holding N.V. (“ABN AMRO”) for approximately €19.9 billion 29 May 2007 Summary Banco Santander Central Hispano, S.A. (“Santander ”), together with The Royal Bank of Scotland Group plc (“RBS ”) and Fortis N.V. and Fortis S.A./N.V. (“Fortis ”) (collectively, the “Banks ” and each a “Bank ”), has announced a proposed Offer (the “Offer ”) for all of the ABN AMRO ordinary shares. The Banks propose to offer €30.40 in cash plus 0.844 new RBS Shares for each ABN AMRO ordinary share, equating to €38.40 per ABN AMRO ordinary share 1. The total consideration payable to shareholders of ABN AMRO under the Offer would therefore be €71.1 billion 2. Further information relating to the proposed Offer is contained in the announcement made by the Banks today. Once the proposed Offer has been completed Santander will acquire the following core businesses from ABN AMRO (together the “ABN AMRO Businesses ”): • Business Unit Latin America (excluding wholesale clients outside Brazil) including, notably, the Banco Real (“Real ”) franchise in Brazil; • Banca Antonveneta (“Antonveneta ”) in Italy; and • Interbank and DMC Consumer Finance (“Interbank ”), a specialised consumer finance business in the Netherlands.
