The Policy sets out the proposed forward-looking policy for
Directors and is subject to a binding shareholder vote, in line
with UK legislation. The Policy details each element of
remuneration for Directors and how this supports delivery of the
Company's strategy and purpose. Provided that the new Policy is
approved by shareholders, it will be capable of operating for a
maximum period of three years, until the 2028 AGM at the latest.
Once approved, payments can only be made to Directors if they are
in accordance with the agreed Policy. If the Company wishes to make
changes to the Policy during this period, then a new policy must be
submitted to shareholders for approval.</font></div>

In line with the authorities approved by shareholders in 2024,
which will expire on the earlier of the conclusion of our 2025 AGM
or at the close of business on 30 June 2025, two resolutions are
being proposed in order to renew authorities that will allow
ordinary shares and equity securities to be allotted in connection
with the issue of ECNs: the first an ordinary resolution giving the
Directors authority to allot ordinary shares or grant rights to
subscribe for or to convert any security into ordinary shares up to
an aggregate nominal amount of &#xA3;1.5 billion; and the other a
special resolution empowering the Directors to allot equity
securities on a non-pre-emptive basis up to an aggregate nominal
amount of &#xA3;1.5 billion. If the proposed &#xA3;1.5 billion
authority is approved by shareholders, and subject to market
conditions, the Company plans to issue up to &#xA3;1.2 billion
principal amount of ECNs in 2025.</font></div>

If approved, these two resolutions will provide NatWest Group with
flexibility to manage its capital through the issue of
loss-absorbing capital instruments in the form of ECNs.&#xA0; ECNs
would convert into newly issued ordinary shares in the Company upon
the occurrence of certain events (for example, NatWest Group's
capital ratios falling below a specified level), diluting existing
holdings of ordinary shares.&#xA0;&#xA0;</font></div>
