<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0pt 0">NatWest Group plc (the &ldquo;Company&rdquo; or &ldquo;NWG&rdquo;) announces
the commencement of its programme to buyback ordinary shares in the Company with a nominal value of &pound;1.076923076923077 each (&ldquo;Ordinary
Shares&rdquo;).</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0pt 0">On 17 February 2023, NWG announced its full year results and a share
buyback programme (the &ldquo;Programme&rdquo;) of up to &pound;800 million. The Programme will commence on 20 February 2023 and will
end no later than 20 July 2023, provided that the term of the Programme may be extended to end no later than 28 July 2023 to account for
certain disruption events during the initial term of the Programme.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Programme, the purpose of which is to reduce the issued share capital
of NWG, will be for an aggregate market value equivalent of up to &pound;800 million and will take place within the limitations of the
authority granted by shareholders to the Board of NWG at its Annual General Meeting, held on 28 April 2022 and amended at its General
Meeting held on 25 August 2022 to preserve the position that would have applied had the Share Consolidation not taken place (the &ldquo;2022
Authority&rdquo;). The 2022 Authority is due to expire at the conclusion of the 2023 AGM, or 30 June 2023, whichever is earlier (the &ldquo;Expiry
Date&rdquo;). However, as Ordinary Shares are being purchased under the Programme which will have commenced prior to the Expiry Date,
the 2022 Authority allows purchases to continue after such date and, therefore, up to 28 July 2023.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The maximum number of Ordinary Shares that can be purchased by NWG under
the Programme is 966,284,391. This number reflects the impact on the 2022 Authority of the reduction in issued share capital following
the off-market buyback announced on 28 March 2022.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0pt 0">NWG has entered into non-discretionary instructions with UBS AG, London
Branch to conduct the Programme on its behalf and to make trading decisions under the Programme independently of NWG.</P>
