to your Notes.
The accompanying product prospectus supplement notes that FATCA withholding on payments of
gross proceeds from a sale or redemption of the Notes wil only apply to payments made after
December 31, 2018. That discussion is modified to reflect regulations proposed by the U.S.
Treasury Department indicating an intent to eliminate the requirement under FATCA of withholding
on gross proceeds of the disposition of financial instruments. The U.S. Treasury Department has
indicated that taxpayers may rely on these proposed regulations pending their finalization.
Prospective investors are urged to consult with their own tax advisors regarding the possible
implications of FATCA on their investment in the Notes.

ADDITIONAL RISK FACTORS
The Notes involve risks not associated with an investment in ordinary fixed rate notes. This section describes the most
significant risks relating to the terms of the Notes. For additional information as to these risks, please see the product
prospectus supplement FIN-1 dated September 20, 2018 and the prospectus supplement dated September 7, 2018. You
should careful y consider whether the Notes are suited to your particular circumstances before you decide to purchase
them. Accordingly, prospective investors should consult their financial and legal advisors as to the risks entailed by an
investment in the Notes and the suitability of the Notes in light of their particular circumstances.
Early Redemption Risk. We have the option to redeem the Notes on the Cal Dates set forth above. It is more likely that
we wil redeem the Notes prior to their stated maturity date to the extent that the interest payable on the Notes is greater
than the interest that would be payable on our other instruments of a comparable maturity, terms and credit rating trading
in the market. If the Notes are redeemed prior to their stated maturity date, you may have to re-invest the proceeds in a
lower rate environment, and you wil not receive any further payments on the Notes.
Investors Are Subject to Our Credit Risk, and Our Credit Ratings and Credit Spreads May Adversely Affect the
Market Value of the Notes. Investors are dependent on Royal Bank's ability to pay al amounts due on the Notes on the
interest payment dates and at maturity, and, therefore, investors are subject to the credit risk of Royal Bank and to
changes in the market's view of Royal Bank's creditworthiness. Any decrease in Royal Bank's credit ratings or increase in
the credit spreads charged by the market for taking Royal Bank's credit risk is likely to adversely affect the market value of
the Notes.
