The USA PATRIOT Act and final rules issued by the U.S.
Department of the Treasury require Covered Financial Institutions to obtain certain
information from Foreign Banks for which they maintain correspondent accounts
in the United States.
As permitted by the final rules, instead of preparing individual
certificates for each Covered Financial Institution which
maintains a correspondent account for the Royal Bank of Canada.
The Royal Bank of Canada, on its own behalf and on behalf
of RBC Bank, RBTT, and RBCEL (collectively "RBC"),
has executed a global certification applicable to all correspondent
accounts maintained for it by Covered Financial Institutions.
As permitted further, RBC has posted such certification on
its web site so that every Covered Financial Institution that
believes it requires such certification from RBC can access
it from such web site. Please access this certificate instead
of requesting from Royal Bank of Canada an individual certificate
pertaining to your Covered Financial Institution.
If the specific branch or office
for which your Covered Financial Institution maintains a correspondent account
is not listed in the Appendix to the Certification, or if you have any questions,
please contact Royal Bank of Canada by e-mail at usapatriotact@rbc.com.

I to the certificate. The most recent version of the certificate
was posted on April 21 , 2009.
