Appendix 2 Businesses outlined for disposal
 
To comply with EC State Aid requirements the Group agreed to make a series of divestments by the end of 2013: the disposal of a majority interest in Direct Line Group, Global Merchant Services and its interest in RBS Sempra Commodities JV. The Group also agreed to dispose of its RBS England and Wales and NatWest Scotland branch-based businesses, along with certain SME and corporate activities across the UK ('UK branch-based businesses'). The disposals of Global Merchant Services and RBS Sempra Commodities JV businesses have now effectively been completed.
 
In October 2012, the Group announced that it had received notification of Santander's decision to pull out of its agreed purchase of the Group's UK branch-based businesses. Santander's decision follows extensive work by both parties to separate the businesses into a largely standalone form and to prepare the business, customers and staff for transfer. RBS has initiated a new process of disposal which has attracted renewed interest from trade, private equity and other investors. The Group is reviewing all options for feasibility, ability to execute and a fair outcome for all stakeholders. In parallel with this RBS is creating a standalone banking entity supported by a bespoke technology solution that would facilitate a trade sale now or at some point in the future, or an IPO. We will continue to work with HMT, the EU and the FSA to secure the best outcome for customers and will update the market as appropriate.
 
The Direct Line Group IPO prospectus was published on 28 September 2012 and the shares were admitted to listing on 16 October 2012. RBS Group sold 520.8 million ordinary shares in Direct Line Group, representing 34.7% of the total share capital, generating gross proceeds of £911 million. This was consistent with the already communicated plan to divest control of Direct Line Group in stages, with control ceded by the end of 2013 and complete disposal by the end of 2014.
 
Direct Line Group reached agreement with RBS Group in September 2012 for an arm's-length, five year distribution agreement for the continued provision of general insurance products post-divestment. Residual IT services will also be provided under a Transitional Services Agreement.
