Why Commodities?

>	Studies have shown that commodities returns are negatively correlated with equity and bond returns and positively correlated with inflation. This means that as equity and bond returns decrease, commodity returns would tend to increase and as inflation increases, commodity returns would also tend to increase.
>	Some market observers believe that as capital flowed into equity markets in the 1980s and 1990s, less capital was invested in commodities development (i.e., oil exploration, mine excavation and planting coffee and sugar crops). This may have led to a decrease in commodity supplies and values. If demand for commodities has increased while global supply has not increased or been slow to increase, commodity prices may rise as supply catches up with demand.
>	Investors seeking a diversified portfolio may look to include exposure to commodities for these or many other reasons.

*	A perfect positive correlation of one implies that as one measure moves either up or down, the other measure will move in lockstep in the same direction. Conversely, a perfect negative correlation of negative one means that if one measure moves in either direction.
	‘Stocks’ are represented by the S&P 500 total return index, ‘Bonds’ are represented by the Ibbotson corporate bond total return index, ‘Inflation’ is measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI), and ‘Commodity Futures’ are represented by an equally weighted commodity futures total return index.

Who is Jim Rogers?

Jim Rogers co-founded the Quantum Fund, a global investmentpartnership. The fund grew approximately4,000% from 1970-1980 while the S&P 500 Index^® rose approximately 50% over the same period. Following his success in the hedge fund business, Jim Rogerswithdrew from active trading and retired at age thirty seven.

In 1990, he embarked on a motorcycle trip around the world and published his experiences in the book “Investment Biker” in 1994. From 1999-2001, he visited 116 countries and traveled over 152,000 miles on his third trip around the world. His second book, “Adventure Capitalist”documented that journey.

In 1998 he started his own commodities index fund, the Rogers InternationalCommodity Index^® and in 2004 he published his third book, “Hot Commodities”.

	The RogersInternational CommodityAgriculture Index
			The RogersInternational Commodity Index (RICISM) is comprised of 35 underlying commoditiesfuturescontracts* and was founded by James B. Rogers on July 31, 998. The RICI’s underlyingcommodities are further broken down into three sub-indices: Agriculture (34.90% of RICI), Metals (21.10%), and Energy (44.00%).
			The RogersInternational CommodityAgriculture Index® (RICIASM) was established on November 30, 2004. The value of the RICIA is based on 21 agriculturalcommodityfutures contracts and aims to measure the value of agricultural raw materials consumed in the global economy . The Index’sweightingsattempt to balanceconsumptionpatterns worldwide (in developed and developingcountries) and specific contractliquidity .
			The currentweightings of the RICIA are listed on the following page. The weightings are reviewed annually and may be adjusted annually or more frequently .
		*	A futurescontract is exchange traded and is an agreement to buy or sell a particularcommodity at pre-determined price at a specifi ed time in the future.

Why AgriculturalCommodities? Why Now?

During the period commencingNovember 2004 to the present, strong global demand for energy and metals has driven up the value of the RogersEnergy and Metals sub-indices while the Agricultural sub-index has lagged signifi cantly (see chart at right).

Many factors may affect the price of agriculturalcommodities. Global supply and demand are key factors, as are speculation,currencyexchange rates, governmentalprograms and policiesregardingagriculture,weather,disease, natural disasters, world wide growth and prosperity,changing world diets, and the development of alternative energysources,among other factors.

These factors and others affect the prices of agriculturalcommodities in varying ways and may cause the value of differentcommoditiescomprising the Agricultural Sub-index to move in inconsistentdirections and/or in a highly volatile manner.

Some of these factors are discussed further on pages 10-11.

		Factors that Might Affect the Price of AgriculturalCommodities*
Category		Factors that may lead to increased demand and higher agricultural commodities prices
World Diets	>	Global food consumption patterns may be changing. Rising incomes in emerging economies, growing urbanization and western influences may cause food consumption globally to change. Reliance on basic staples such as rice and noodles may shift to fruits, vegetables and proteins (such as meat, eggs, or dairy).
	>	Demand for corn and other feed grains has nearly doubled in the past five years. This is due to increased consumer demand for meat and poultry (and subsequent production growth) in Asia, Latin America and the former Soviet Republics.
Alternative Energy	>	Many nations are seeking to decrease dependence on petroleum based energy. This is primarily due to the prospect of high oil prices, instability in oil-producing regions and environmental concerns.
	>	Alternative energy sources are more widely available. Sugar and corn-based ethanol, for example, are more widely available and economically and technologically viable than during the last sharp increase in oil prices in the 1970s.
	>	Major sugar exporter Brazil has devoted increasing amounts of sugar to ethanol production in recent years. This shift has resulted in less available sugar for edible consumption and may have contributed to sugar prices reaching a 24-year high in 2005.
	>	US corn-based ethanol production has increased 109% from 2000- 2003. This suggests that less corn may be available for edible consumption in the future.
Weather	>	Adverse weather may damage crops. For example, overall beverage prices rose 21% in
		2005 due to an increase in Robusta coffee prices due to weather-related supply disruptions in
		Vietnam, the second largest coffee producer.
	>	Unpredictable natural disasters may occur. For example, US lumber and energy prices increased in the wake of the hurricanes in 2005.

* This page discusses only three of the many factors that may affect global agriculturalcommodities prices.

	Possiblereasons why these factors may not lead to higheragriculturalcommodity prices
>	More countries may attempt to become more self-sufficient. Even if diets change, enhanced farming technology and efficiency may enable nations to meet domestic demand and rely less on imports.
>	An outbreak of Avian flu or animal sicknesses such as mad cow disease may reduce world demand for beef, pork and poultry. This might also reduce demand for feed grains.
>	Political factors in emerging economies might limit reliance on imported food and shun agricultural free trade.
>	More efficient ethanol production technology and increased production capacity may be developed. Increased efficiency may allow sugar cane planters to devote more of their resources to satisfying edible sugar demand and new sugarcane fields and mills, which typically require only a three to five year lead time, may increase worldwide supply.
>	The US ethanol industry is in its infancy. US consumers might balk at the purchase of new, ethanol- efficient vehicles due to the current lack of available infrastructure (i.e., fuel stations and pumps).
>	Petroleum-based fuel may become more affordable in the short term. Potential US government tax incentives or other policies may discourage consumers from switching to ethanol-efficient vehicles.
>	Surplus corn or sugar stocks might be used to satisfy domestic alternative energy demand. Countries may rely less on imported corn or sugar if they have enough excess stock to satisfy demand.
>	Good weather might increase crop production. As a result, prices may stabilize if world demand is met.
>	Major natural disasters may not occur. This could allow for crop development on previously unused land or land that had been impacted by previous natural disasters.

Risk Considerations

Investorsshouldcarefullyconsider the risks of any commodityrelatedinvestment and whether such investment is suited to their particularcircumstances. It is important that prior to investing in any commodity linked notes investors read the prospectusrelated to such notes to understand the actual terms of, and risks associated with, such notes. In addition, we urge investors to consult with their investment, legal, accounting, tax and other advisors with respect to any investment in a note or commodities in general.

Credit Risk

While this brochure does not describe any particular note or structuredproduct linked to the RICIA, it is possible that investors may be offered a commodity -linked note issued by ABN AMRO Bank N.V. (“ABN AMRO”) in the future. Such notes would be guaranteed by ABN AMROHolding N.V., ABN AMRO’sparent. In such notes, investors would assume the credit risk of ABN AMRO and ABN AMROHolding N.V. Furthermore, any notes sold, offered, or recommended are not deposits on ABN AMRO Bank N.V. and are not endorsed or guaranteed by any bank or thrift, nor are they insured by the FDIC or any governmentalagency.

Principal Risk

The notes investors may be offered may not be principalprotected. In addition,investors in some notes will be fully exposed to any decline in the price or level of the underlyingcommodity index asset. Accordingly,investors may lose some or all of their initial investment in such notes. Severalfactors,including,withoutlimitation,governmentalprograms and policiesregardingagriculture as well as natural disasters may cause the price of the agriculturalcommoditiescomprising the RICIA to changeunpredictably.

LimitedReturn

The notes investors may be offered may be capped at a maximum return, in which case investors in the notes would never receive at maturity an amountgreater than a predeterminedamount per note, regardless of how much the price of the underlyingcommodity index increases during the term of the note. Accordingly,investors may receive less than if they had investeddirectly in the underlyingcommodity index.

Index Sponsor

The RICI is overseen and managed by a committeechaired and controlled by James B. Rogers, Jr., the founder and sole owner of the RICI. We are one of the fi ve other members of the committee. The committee has discretionregarding the composition and management of the RICI, includingadditions,deletions and the weightings of the

12

commoditiescomprising the RICI, all of which could affect the RICI and, therefore, the value of any notes linked to the RICI or the RICIA.

Liquidity Risk

ABN AMRO does not intend to list any of the notes on any securitiesexchange. Accordingly, there may be little or no secondarymarket for the notes and informationregardingindependentmarket pricing of the notes may be limited. The value of the notes in the secondarymarket, if any, will be subject to many unpredictablefactors,including then prevailingmarketconditions.

It is important to note that many factors would contribute to the secondarymarket value of the notes, and investors may not receive their full principal back if the notes were sold prior to maturity. Such factorsinclude, but are not limited to, time to maturity, the price of the underlyingcommodity index, volatility and interest rates.

In addition, the price, if any, at which ABN AMRO or another party would be willing to purchase notes in secondarymarkettransactions would likely be lower than the issue price, since the issue price would have included, and secondarymarket prices are likely to exclude,commissions,discounts or mark-ups paid with respect to the notes, as well as the cost of hedging ABN AMRO’sobligations under the notes.

Tax Risk

Each note may have a different U.S. federal income tax treatment that will depend on the specifi c terms of such note. With respect to certain notes, there is no direct legal authority as to the U.S. federal income tax characterization of the notes. No assurance can be given that the InternalRevenueService will accept, or that a court will uphold, our particular tax treatment of the notes.

SEC Legend

ABN AMRO filed a registrationstatement(including a prospectus), and will fi le a pricing supplement, with the SEC for each offering of notes to which this communicationrelates. Before you invest in any note, you should read such documents and other documents ABN AMRO has fi led with the SEC for more completeinformation about ABN AMRO and the specifi c offering of the notes. You may get these documents for free by visitingEDGAR on the SEC web site at www.sec.gov.

Alternatively, ABN AMRO, any underwriter or any dealer participating in the offering will arrange to send you the prospectus if you request it by calling toll free (888) 644-2048.
