The Navigator Deposit ISA 8 1 The Navigator Deposit ISA 8 A deposit with The Royal Bank of Scotland plc Plan/ISA Account Manager

2 The Navigator Deposit ISA 8 What is the Navigator Deposit ISA 8? The Navigator Deposit ISA 8 (the ISA ) is a deposit ISA that has a fixed term of five and a half years. As a deposit, it is designed to pay back your original investment at the end of the term. It also offers the possibility of growth on your money dependent on the level of the RBS UK Navigator Index (the Index ). An explanation of the Index can be found on page 6. The ISA is designed to offer 140% of any rise in the Index. Applications will only be accepted on the basis that a recommendation has been provided by a financial adviser who has considered the suitability of this investment in line with your circumstances. How does my ISA work? You give us (Legal & General) your money and we open an ISA for you. We are not a bank or building society, we cannot hold your money on deposit. Therefore, on 1 June 2011 we pass your money to The Royal Bank of Scotland plc (RBS) who hold it, as Deposit Taker, until the end of the five and a half year term. At the end of the five and a half year term they pass your original investment back to us plus any growth, which will be made available to you. How long should I hold my ISA? You must hold your ISA for the full five and a half year fixed term to benefit from the stated returns. Who is the ISA provider? The Navigator Deposit ISA 8 is provided by Legal & General (Portfolio Management Services) Limited, a company authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority. As ISA Manager, we re responsible for the management of the ISA and will be your point of contact. RBS is the authorised deposit taker, we will pass your money to them on the start date of the ISA. When will my ISA close? Your plan will automatically close at the end of five and a half years on 1 December 2016. RBS then pay us any applicable return within five working days (the maturity payment date). Your ISA will remain open until we receive your final instructions. Can I access my money early? This ISA is designed as a five and a half year fixed term investment. However, if your situation changes, you can get your money out early, although you could get back less than you originally invested. It depends on the current value as determined by RBS. If you do take some of your money out this will affect what you get back at the end of the fixed term. Is my money safe? Once your money is held by RBS it is protected in the same way as it is with any other bank or building society account. See page 11 for important information about how your money is held. You may lose some or all of your money if RBS or the bank or building society that provides our client bank account is unable to pay back your money. Legal & General is not responsible to you if these firms do not pay what they owe. In these circumstances you may be entitled to compensation from the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS). See page 11 for more information about the FSCS. The Navigator Plan won the award for innovation at the ILP Moneyfacts Awards 2010.

The Navigator Deposit ISA 8 3 Key Features of the Navigator Deposit ISA 8 The Financial Services Authority is the independent financial services regulator. It requires us, Legal & General, to give you this important information to help you decide whether our Navigator Deposit ISA 8 is right for you. You should read this document carefully together with the terms and conditions so that you understand what you are buying, and then keep it safe for future reference. The Navigator Deposit ISA 8 is designed to offer 140% of any growth in the RBS UK Navigator Index and the return of your original investment at the end of the five and a half year term. You will earn pre-investment interest at a fixed rate equivalent to 0.87% gross/aer from the date your payment is treated as cleared until 26 May 2011. This interest will be added to your original investment amount. The gross rate of interest is the rate payable before the deduction of tax. AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate. It shows what the interest rate would be if it was paid once each year. This lets you compare interest rates across different accounts and what return you can expect from your savings over time. Every advertisement for a savings product that quotes an interest rate will contain an AER. Is the Navigator Deposit ISA 8 right for me? This ISA may be right for you if you are The ISA may not be suitable if you are looking for: looking for: your money to be invested for a fixed term access to your money during the fixed of five and a half years; term; a tax free investment; a way to set aside money for emergencies a return linked to the performance of the or to cover any debts; and/or RBS UK Navigator Index; and a return that is not linked to stock market a deposit based ISA (and you have other performance. money set aside for short-term needs/ emergencies and any debts you may have). It s important that you think about spreading your money across different types of investments and so limit concentrating it in any one area. You could consider how and where different investments and products invest your money. Spreading your money into different investments can help reduce your risk. This Plan, known as a structured product, deposits your money in a single company, RBS. You need to consider how exposed your money is to the risks of both other structured products as well as other RBS deposits you may hold. If you have any doubt you should talk to your financial adviser for more information. Please also see What if I ve any doubt about the suitability of this investment contract or require personal advice? on page 10. You should speak to your financial adviser if you re unsure about any aspects of this Plan and its suitability for you.

4 The Navigator Deposit ISA 8 How is the ISA return achieved? Your investment growth is dependent on the performance of the RBS UK Navigator Index. Therefore your ISA is designed to benefit from changes in the performance of the top 100 UK companies measured by market capitalisation, whether the trend is for that performance to be rising or falling. An explanation of the Index can be found on page 6. The following table shows what you could get back from a 3,600 investment held until the end of the fixed term. These figures do not take into account any pre-investment interest. These figures are examples only and changes in the Index level have been chosen to show what you could get back from the ISA. What you will get back depends on the average level of the Index in the final year and assumes no withdrawals have been made. You could get back less than these example returns. Please see below for details of how the Index is measured. Original investment Percentage change in RBS UK Navigator Index Growth received at the end of fixed term 3,600 +25% 35% 4,860 3,600 +10% 14% 4,104 3,600 0% 0% 3,600 3,600-10% 0% 3,600 3,600-25% 0% 3,600 Total amount that you get back after five and a half years* * All information is based on our understanding of current taxation in the United Kingdom, which may be subject to statutory change. ISA term and important dates Offer available: 14 March to 13 May 2011 ISA transfer deadline: 28 April 2011 2010/2011 tax year ISA application deadline: 5 April 2011 2011/2012 tax year ISA application deadline: 13 May 2011 Start date of investment: 1 June 2011 End of fixed term (maturity): 1 December 2016 Maturity payment date of the ISA: 8 December 2016 The above table only applies if you hold your investment for the full five and a half years. How is the RBS UK Navigator Index performance measured for my ISA? To work out if there s been any growth at the end of the five and a half year term we ll use the level of the Index on 1 June 2011. This gives us the starting level. We ll then compare it with the average level of the Index in the last 12 months of the investment period. We ll work out the average by recording the closing level of the Index on the 1st of each month (if not a business day, for any of the markets within the Index, we ll use the level on the next available business day), from 1 December 2015 to 1 December 2016. This is known as the averaging period. Averaging will reduce your exposure to the ups and downs of the Index. However, if the Index were to rise during the last 12 months, this will reduce the potential returns. Remember your money is not invested in the RBS UK Navigator Index, but any growth you receive from the ISA will be determined by its performance. For further details on how the Index works, and where you can find the current level of the Index, please see What is the RBS UK Navigator Index? on page 6.

The Navigator Deposit ISA 8 5 Who is The Royal Bank of Scotland plc (the Deposit Taker)? From the start date to the end of the fixed term your money will not be invested with Legal & General. It will be passed to RBS, an authorised Deposit Taker. RBS is rated as A+, with a stable outlook, by Standard & Poor s, Aa3, with a stable outlook, by Moody s and AA-, with a stable outlook, by Fitch (at the time of publication of this brochure). See page 12 for more information on these ratings and the credit rating agencies. What charges and expenses will I have to pay? There are no charges for you to pay out of your investment. The costs of providing the stated returns for this ISA are taken into account when setting those returns. How will inflation affect the value of my ISA? Unless the stated return on your ISA meets or exceeds the rate of inflation, the real value of your investment will reduce. How does the pre-investment interest work? Any pre-investment interest will be paid gross and we will include it with your original investment. Following receipt of your application, payments by debit card will be treated as cleared after four business days and by cheque after one business day. How much can I put in the ISA? For the 2010/2011 tax year The minimum you can invest is 3,600. The maximum you can invest is 5,100. For the 2011/2012 tax year The minimum you can invest is 3,600. The maximum you can invest is 5,340. ISA transfers The minimum you can invest is 3,600. There is no maximum you can invest.

6 The Navigator Deposit ISA 8 What is the RBS UK Navigator Index? The RBS UK Navigator Index (the Index ) is designed, owned and maintained by RBS. The Index is linked to the performance of the top 100 UK equities, measured by market capitalisation (referred to here as the Market ). Market capitalisation is calculated by multiplying the number of shares in a company by its share price. The Index is designed to adapt its exposure to the Market according to the prevailing Market trends. Rising or falling trend: At the beginning of each month, the Index compares the current level of the Market against the average level of the Market over the previous 12 months. If the current level of the Market is greater than or equal to the previous 12-month average level, then the Market trend is deemed to be rising. If the current level of the Market is less than the previous 12-month average level, then the Market trend is deemed to be falling. Strength of trend: The Index also gauges how strong this trend is (whether rising or falling), by comparing the average performance of the Market over the last 3 months with the average performance of the Market over the last 12 months. The direction and strength of the trend determines the exposure that the Index will have to the Market in the next month. Market volatility: Finally, as well as responding to Market trends each month, the Index also modifies its exposure to the Market on a daily basis, depending on recent Market volatility. Market volatility is a measure of how much the Market deviates from its average level over a defined time. For example, if the Market volatility is high, the Index will limit or reduce its exposure to the Market, even if the Market trend appears to be very strong. Index performance: The table below describes how the Index will perform depending on the deemed trend and the actual Market performance in a given month: At the start of the month, the Index deems that the Market is: Rising Falling During the next month, the level of the Market actually: Rises Falls In the next month, the Index level will: Perform positively In the next month, the Index level will: Perform negatively In the next month, the Index level will: Perform negatively In the next month, the Index level will: Perform positively The Index may have more than 100% exposure to the Market (up to a maximum of 125% exposure), which has the potential to amplify the gains or losses of the Index. In periods of higher Market volatility or where the Market trend is weak, the Index may be partially protected against losses due to having reduced exposure to the Market. However, any potential gains will be constrained for the same reason.

The Navigator Deposit ISA 8 7 Important information Your questions answered We are the ISA Manager for a range of fixed term deposits known as Legal & General Deposit Bonds. The Navigator Deposit ISA 8 is part of this range. Where we refer to Legal & General Deposit Bond ISA in this brochure we are referring to features which are the same in each ISA in the range. Where we refer to The Navigator Deposit ISA 8 we are covering a feature specific to this ISA. Why choose Legal & General? The Legal & General Group, established in 1836, is one of the UK s leading financial services companies. As at 30 June 2010, we were responsible for investing 331 billion worldwide on behalf of investors, policyholders and shareholders. We also had over 6.9 million customers in the UK for our life assurance, pensions, investments and general insurance plans. What are the risks? If you have to take out some or all of your money before the end of the fixed term, you may receive back less than you originally invested. If the Deposit Taker is unable to pay us what they owe, you could lose some or all of your money and any returns due. Unless the performance of your ISA meets or exceeds the rate of inflation, the real value of your ISA will reduce. The favourable tax situation of ISAs may not be maintained. You re not guaranteed any growth, as any growth will depend on the performance of the RBS UK Navigator Index. If the RBS UK Navigator Index cannot be calculated then any growth payment may be affected or delayed. For further details of when this could occur please see the Extraordinary Event section on page 7 in the Terms and Conditions document. Using your ISA allowance There are two types of ISA, a cash ISA and a stocks and shares ISA. These can be held with the same or different managers. This product is only available as a cash ISA. The limits are shown below. 2010/2011 tax year The maximum investment for a cash ISA is 5,100 and 10,200 in a stocks and shares ISA. For the 2011/2012 tax year The maximum investment for a cash ISA is 5,340 and 10,680 for a stocks and shares ISA. The total ISA limit for each tax year ( 10,200 for 2010/11 and 10,680 for 2011/12) includes any amount you may have in a cash ISA. As you can use both the 2010/11 and 2011/12 tax year cash ISA allowances for this Plan, the maximum combined cash ISA allowance for both years is 10,440. ISA transfers to Legal & General If you wish to transfer your current or a previous tax year cash ISA to Legal & General, the minimum transfer amount is 3,600. You ll need to complete the relevant section of the application form. Remember, if you are transferring a cash ISA taken out in the current tax year, you must transfer your whole ISA investment. Once we have received your transfer form, we ll send it to your existing manager who will take it as authority to cash in your investment according to their Terms and Conditions. They will then send the transfer proceeds directly to Legal & General for investment. Your existing manager may charge an exit fee or penalty. Please note that transfer applications must be received two weeks prior to the end of the offer period of the relevant issue.

8 The Navigator Deposit ISA 8 How to apply To invest in this ISA, please complete the appropriate application form provided. All applications must be received by us before the date on the top of the application form. ISA transfers from Legal & General If you wish to transfer your cash ISA from Legal & General to another manager, we ll need notification from them in writing. On receipt of their notification, your investment held within your ISA will be cashed in and the cash value will be transferred to your new manager. Please note, if the request to transfer is received by Legal & General before the end of the fixed term, it will be subject to the conditions as described in Can I cash in my ISA before the end of the fixed term?. If you have invested in your cash ISA in the same tax year in which you transfer your account, you must transfer the entire cash ISA holding. You ll not benefit from any returns while the transfer is pending. Who can invest? You must be aged 18 years or over to apply ISAs must be held in your name only This ISA is not available to US residents. What is the relationship between Legal & General and the Deposit Taker? Legal & General (Portfolio Management Services) Limited is the ISA Manager for the Legal & General Deposit Bond ISA. We do not hold your money but will pass it to the Deposit Taker. We will be your ISA Manager and point of contact. What documentation will I receive? Within six days of our receipt of your application we will send you a welcome letter and a notice giving you the right to cancel the ISA. On the start date of the issue, an opening statement will be sent to you giving you details of your ISA. Every 12 months we will send you a statement (detailing all transactions made since the last statement) and a confirmation of your holding. How will charges and expenses affect my ISA? There are no charges for you to pay out of your investment. The cost of providing the stated returns for this ISA are taken into account in calculating those returns. What happens if I want to cancel? You will receive notice of your right to cancel your ISA, and you will then have 14 days in which you can change your mind. You can cancel your ISA by simply returning your completed cancellation notice form and you will have your investment returned with any interest earned. See the Contacts section on page 13. If you do not exercise your cancellation rights within the 14 day cancellation period then: you ll remain invested in your chosen Legal & General Deposit Bond ISA; you will be subject to all the risks as detailed in these Key Features; you forfeit your right to contribute to any other cash ISA with another manager for the tax year that you make this investment; and you ll not be able to replace any contribution withdrawn within the same tax year, unless the amount you wish to invest is within your unused ISA allowance.

The Navigator Deposit ISA 8 9 What happens to my ISA if I die? As your investment is within an ISA, the ISA will automatically terminate. When we receive proof of death and all other documentation needed to make a payment we will either: a) repay the current value and any applicable interest, to your personal representatives under the ISA rules; or b) transfer the holding, outside an ISA, to a named beneficiary(ies), to continue the investment until the end of the fixed term. If this option is chosen, your beneficiaries will receive, and must agree to, the relevant Terms and Conditions. If you die before the end of the term, and the holding is not retained until that date, your personal representatives may get back less than the original investment, dependent on the current value as determined by the Deposit Taker. If you have taken any money out, the amount paid will be reduced accordingly. What happens at the end of the fixed term? At the end of the fixed term the Deposit Taker will pay Legal & General the original investment plus any applicable returns, within five working days. Around the end of the fixed term, we will write to you outlining the options available to you. You will retain your ISA status whilst we are waiting for your instructions. Once we have received your instructions, we will endeavour to fulfill your requests within five working days from the end of the maturity payment date or from receipt of your instructions, if later. We will hold the proceeds of your deposit ISA in an interest-bearing client account for a reasonable period until we receive your instructions. All interest earned will belong to you. The interest will be paid gross. If we do not hear from you within a reasonable time, we will return the proceeds of your deposit ISA to your nominated bank or building society account. Can I cash in my ISA before the end of the fixed term? If your situation changes, you can get your money out early. However, if you do, you could get back less than you originally invested. It depends on the current value determined by the Deposit Taker. If you do need to take out some or all of your money, you should contact us by the 7th or 20th of each month. Our contact details are towards the end of the brochure. You will receive payment within five working days of these dates. You can take out 500 or more, but you must leave at least 500 to keep your ISA open. You can, of course, take all of your money and close your ISA. If you take your money out before the start date on 1 June 2011 you will get back all you originally invested. What s my tax liability? The following tax assumptions are based on our understanding of current taxation in the UK and are subject to change. The value of tax advantages will depend on your individual circumstances and where your money is invested. If you need tax or legal advice, please contact a tax or legal specialist. Under current legislation, all cash ISA investments are free of tax. Therefore, any interest will be paid tax free. If you are an investor residing abroad, depending on your residency status, you may be liable to pay tax in a country outside the UK. If so, you may be liable to tax on any income or capital gains. If you need advice, you should consult a suitable tax adviser or the tax authorities in the country concerned. Please remember, you must be resident and ordinarily resident in the UK for tax purposes to subscribe to an ISA. How much will any advice cost? Legal & General will pay your adviser for any new investment. Your adviser will give you details of the amount that Legal & General will pay them. The amount will depend on the size of your investment. The amount of commission payable will be up to 3.0% of the amount you invested. This cost is already taken into account in calculating the returns stated at the beginning of this brochure. How do you support advisers? We provide intermediary firms and advisers with additional benefits which are designed to enhance the quality of their service to you. These benefits may include some or all of the following: training, software, seminars and marketing materials. Further details of any benefits received from us are available on request from your intermediary firm/adviser.

10 The Navigator Deposit ISA 8 Complaints If you wish to complain about any aspect of the service you receive from Legal & General, or would like us to send you a copy of our internal complaints handling procedure, please contact us. See the Contacts section on page 13. Should you feel that your complaint is not dealt with to your satisfaction, you may be entitled to take the matter up with the: Financial Ombudsman Service South Quay Plaza 183 Marsh Wall London E14 9SR Making a complaint will not prejudice your right to take legal proceedings. What if I ve any doubt about the suitability of this ISA or require personal advice? This brochure does not provide personal advice or recommendations. It is important that you only invest in this product if it meets your needs. It will only be suitable if you are prepared to invest your money for a fixed period of time and appreciate the risks as highlighted on page 7. You should have separate money set aside for emergencies. You must ensure that you have carefully considered the taxation that applies to investments of this type before investing. Please refer to the beginning of this brochure for further details on the current issue. If you are unsure of the suitability of this ISA for your needs, please contact your financial adviser for advice. What is my customer category? The Financial Services Authority (our regulator), requires us to put our customers into groups so that we can treat them according to their level of knowledge about investments. These groups are: retail client; professional client; or eligible counterparty. We treat all customers who invest in products from this brochure as retail clients. This gives you the greatest level of protection under the regulations and ensures you get full information about the product you buy. I m a retail client, can I be categorised as a professional client? You can choose to be categorised as a professional client or an eligible counterparty, but this means you receive less information about our products and services. Also, you would not be entitled to receive a suitability report or appropriateness assessment where these would be required for retail clients. I m a professional client, can I be categorised as a retail client? You can ask to be categorised as a retail client, although it doesn t necessarily mean you can refer any complaints to the Financial Ombudsman Service, and you may not be eligible for compensation under the Financial Services Compensation Scheme. Why do I need to prove my identity? To protect you and us from financial crime, we may need to confirm your identity from time to time. We may do this by using reference agencies to search sources of information about you (an identity search). This will not affect your credit rating. If this identity search fails, we may ask you for documents to confirm your identity. In certain circumstances, we may need to contact you to obtain more information regarding your investment. Maximum offer period Legal & General (Portfolio Management Services) Limited may, in exceptional circumstances, close an issue early. This may occur if too little money is received to make the issue viable or because the issue has been over subscribed. If your application is not accepted then your investment will be returned in full.

The Navigator Deposit ISA 8 11 Where will my money be held and how secure is it? During the fixed term: Your money is held on deposit by RBS and is protected in the same way as it is with any other bank or building society account that you have. RBS is legally bound to pay your money back to us at the end of the fixed term (together with the returns due under your ISA). If RBS cannot pay us what they owe, you may not receive all of your money back. We are not responsible to you if RBS does not pay your money back together with any returns due under your ISA. Before and after the fixed term: Before we pass your money to RBS we hold your money in a client bank account separate from our own money. Once we get your money back from RBS at the end of the fixed term, we hold it in the same way. Because we hold this money separate from our own money, if Legal & General were to become insolvent your money would be safe. However, if the bank or building society that provides this client account cannot pay us that money you may not receive all of your money back. We are not responsible to you if the bank or building society that provides this client bank account does not pay this money back. If either RBS or the bank or building society providing the client bank account is unable to pay your money back, you may be entitled to compensation from the Financial Services Compensation Scheme ( FSCS ). Please see the Compensation section for more information. Compensation The FSCS is designed to pay customers compensation if they lose money because a firm is unable to pay what they owe for any reason. Most depositors, including individuals and small businesses, are covered by the FSCS. Your ability to claim from the FSCS and the amount you may be entitled to will depend on the specific circumstances of your claim. RBS is a member of the FSCS and so, if RBS is unable to pay back your money for any reason, for example becoming insolvent, you may be able to claim compensation for any loss you have suffered. The FSCS covers the first 85,000 each customer holds with each bank or building society. This means that any money you have in other accounts with RBS as well as any money you hold in this ISA would count towards the 85,000 limit. If you have 85,000 or less in total with RBS, including the money you have put in this ISA, you should get back all of your money. If you have more than 85,000 in total held with RBS, you may lose some or all of the money you hold in this ISA. You may also be able to claim compensation for any loss you suffer in the event that the bank or building society which provides our client bank account is unable to pay back your money while it is held there before or after the fixed term. Any claim would again be limited to the first 85,000 you hold with that bank or building society and so any money you have in other accounts you hold with that bank or building society would count towards this limit. The rules of the FSCS may change and the FSCS may take a different approach on the application of these rules to a particular bank or building society depending on the circumstances of the failure of that bank or building society to pay back what it owes. You can find out more about the FSCS (including amounts and eligibility to claim) by visiting its website www.fscs.org.uk or calling 0800 678 1100.

Credit ratings can be a useful way to compare the credit risk associated with different product providers and related investments. Credit ratings are assigned by independent companies known as ratings agencies and reviewed regularly. Moody s rate companies from Aaa (Most Secure/Best) to C (Most Risky/Worst), Standard & Poor s rate companies from AAA (Most Secure/Best) to D (Most Risky/Worst) and Fitch rate companies from AAA (Most Secure/Best) to D (Most Risky/Worst). These credit ratings are reviewed on a regular basis and are subject to change by these agencies. A rating outlook indicates the likely rating trend over a one to two-year period. It reflects financial or other trends that have not yet reached the level that would trigger the rating agency to change its rating of the product provider, but which may do so if such trends continue. A stable outlook means that the rating is unlikely to change in the short term. The credit rating is not a recommendation to purchase, sell, or hold a financial obligation, as it does not comment on market price or suitability for a particular investor. It also does not provide assurance that the institution cannot fail.
