The LLC<br />

<strong>ABN</strong> <strong>AMRO</strong> <strong>Capital</strong> <strong>Funding</strong> LLC V, a Delaware limited liability company, is a direct wholly- owned subsidiary of<br />

AANAH, which is our first- tier U.S. holding company and a subsidiary of the Bank. The Bank is a wholly- owned subsidiary of<br />

<strong>ABN</strong> <strong>AMRO</strong> <strong>Holding</strong>. All of the LLC common securities, which will be the only class of voting securities of the LLC, will be<br />

initially owned by AANAH. The LLC will be treated as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes.<br />

The LLC exists for the purposes of acquiring and holding the initial intercompany securities issued by the Bank, or<br />

successor intercompany securities, issuing the LLC common securities and the LLC preferred securities, and enforcing the<br />

contingent guarantee for the benefit of the holders of the LLC preferred securities.<br />

In this prospectus supplement, when we refer to "intercompany securities," we mean:<br />

• the initial subordinated debt securities issued by the Bank to the LLC, which we refer to as the "initial<br />

intercompany securities," or<br />

• upon redemption of the initial intercompany securities, other securities issued by the Bank, <strong>Holding</strong> or a non-<br />

U.S. affiliate thereof, which we refer to as the successor intercompany securities.<br />

The LLC may not reinvest in successor intercompany securities if the reinvestment would cause the LLC to be<br />

considered to be an "investment company" within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, which<br />

we will refer to in this prospectus supplement as the "1940 Act".<br />

It is expected that the aggregate interest payments on the initial intercompany securities issued by the Bank will be<br />

equal to or greater than the aggregate quarterly dividend payments on the LLC preferred securities.<br />

The location of the principal executive offices of the LLC is 135 South LaSalle Street, Chicago, Illinois 60603, and its<br />

telephone number is (312) 904- 2000.<br />
