Allotment and Issue of New Ordinary Shares
The Royal Bank of Scotland Group plc (the "Company") announces
the allotment and issue of 32,476,650 new ordinary shares (the "New
Ordinary Shares") of the Company at a subscription price of
261.7265 pence per New Ordinary Share. The shares have been sold in
the market. The subscription price was determined by reference to
the average market price during a period since the Company's Full
Year results on 23 February 2018.
The shares being issued are for the purposes of partly
neutralising the impact of 2018 coupon payments on discretionary
hybrid capital from a Common Equity Tier 1 capital perspective, as
explained in the Company's Full Year 2017 results
announcements.
Based on this subscription price, the gross proceeds of the
issue are GBP85 million. The New Ordinary Shares being issued
represent an increase of approximately 0.27% in the Company's
current issued ordinary shares. The New Ordinary Shares will, when
issued, be credited as fully paid and rank pari passu in all
respects with the existing ordinary shares of the Company.
Applications will be made for admission of the New Ordinary
Shares to the premium listing segment of the Official List of the
UK Listing Authority and to trading (together "Admission") on (i)
the main market of the London Stock Exchange and (ii) the New York
Stock Exchange ("the NYSE"). American Depositary Shares ("ADS")
will also be listed with the NYSE in addition to the New Ordinary
Shares underlying the ADSs. It is expected that Admission will take
place at 8.00 a.m. on 23 April 2018.
