The Shares are in registered form. No share certificates are issued.

3.1.3

Shares are numbered. The Board decides on the manner in which the Shares are numbered and may change the numbering of the Shares.

3.1.4

The Company shall not cooperate with the issue of depositary receipts. Holders of depositary receipts for Shares therefore do not have Meeting Rights.

3.2

Issue of Shares

3.2.1

The Board resolves on the issue of Shares and determines the issue price, as well as the other terms and conditions of the issue, if and insofar as the Board has been authorised by the General Meeting to issue Shares with due observance of the applicable statutory provisions. Unless otherwise stipulated at its grant, the authorisation cannot be withdrawn without a proposal thereto by the Board.

3.2.2

If and insofar as the Board has not been authorised as referred to in article 3.2.1, the General Meeting, pursuant to a proposal thereto by the Board, resolves on the issue of Shares and determines the issue price, as well as the other terms and conditions of the issue.

3.2.3

Articles 3.2.1 and 3.2.2 apply equally to the granting of rights to subscribe for Shares. These articles do not apply if Shares are being issued to a person exercising a previously acquired right to subscribe for Shares.

3.3

Payment for Shares

3.3.1

Shares are issued in accordance with sections 2:80, 2:80a and 2:80b BW.

3.3.3

Upon resolving to issue Shares or to grant rights to subscribe for Shares, the corporate body adopting such resolution to issue Shares may determine that the Shares are to be paid up in full out of a reserve as referred to in section 2:389 or 2:390 BW or a distributable reserve.

The Board may perform legal acts as referred to in section 2:94 BW without the approval of the General Meeting.

Shares issued against contribution in kind; and

(c)

Shares issued to a person exercising a previously acquired right to subscribe for Shares.

The Board may resolve to limit or exclude pre-emptive rights, if and insofar the Board has been authorised to do so by the General Meeting with due observance of the applicable statutory provisions. Unless otherwise stipulated at its grant, the authorisation cannot be withdrawn without a proposal thereto by the Board.

3.4.3

If and insofar the Board has not been authorised as referred to in article 3.4.2, the General Meeting, pursuant to a proposal thereto by the Board, resolves on the limitation or exclusion of pre-emptive rights.

If less than one half of the issued share capital is represented at the General Meeting, a resolution of the General Meeting to limit or exclude the pre-emptive rights and a resolution to authorise the Board as referred to in article 3.4.2 will require a majority of at least two-thirds of the votes cast.

3.4.5

Subject to section 2:96a BW, the corporate body that resolves to issue Shares determines, upon adopting such resolution to issue Shares and with due observance of the applicable statutory provisions, in which way and within which period of time the pre-emptive rights may be exercised.

This article 3.4 applies equally to the granting of rights to subscribe for Shares.

OWN SHARES AND CAPITAL REDUCTION

Acquisition of Shares by the Company

4.1.1

The Company may acquire fully paid-up Shares if and insofar the General Meeting has authorised the Board to do so with due observance of the applicable statutory provisions. The General Meeting determines in its authorisation the number of Shares the Company may acquire, in what manner and at what price range. Acquisition by the Company of Shares not fully paid up is null and void.

4.1.2

No authorisation as referred to in article 4.1.1 is required if the Company repurchases fully paid-up Shares for the purpose of transferring these Shares to employees of the Company or of a Group Company under any applicable equity plan, provided that these Shares are quoted on an official list of a stock exchange.

4.1.3

The Company may acquire Shares against payment in cash or in a form other than cash. If the Company acquires Shares pursuant to an authorisation referred to in article 4.1.1, the cash equivalent of a payment in a form other than cash as determined by the Board, must be within the limits of such authorisation.

4.1.4

This article 4.1 does not apply to Shares acquired by the Company under universal title.

Pursuant to a proposal of the Board, the General Meeting may decide to reduce the issued share capital with due observance of section 2:99 BW.

6/18

4.2.2

The issued share capital may be reduced by reducing the nominal value of Shares by means of an amendment to these articles of association or by cancelling Shares.

4.2.3

If less than one half of the issued share capital is represented at the General Meeting, a resolution of the General Meeting to reduce the share capital will require a majority of at least two-thirds of the votes cast.

4.2.4

A resolution to cancel Shares can only relate to Shares held by the Company or of which the Company holds the depositary receipts.

4.2.5

Reduction of the nominal value of the Shares without repayment and without release from the obligation to pay up the Shares must take place proportionately on all Shares. The requirement of proportion may be deviated from with the consent of all Shareholders concerned.

SHAREHOLDERS REGISTER

5.1.1

The Board shall keep a shareholders register as referred to in section 2:85 BW. The shareholders register may be kept in electronic form.

5.1.2

The shareholders register shall be updated at regular intervals and will state the name and address of each Shareholder and any other information on the Shareholder that may be required by law or deemed appropriate by the Board. The Shareholder is responsible for any consequences of not providing such information or of providing incorrect information.

5.1.3

The shareholders register may be kept in separate parts and at different locations. Part of the shareholders register may be kept outside the Netherlands in order to comply with foreign legislation or with requirements made by a foreign stock exchange. At least one copy will be maintained at the office of the Company.

5.1.4

Upon request, a Shareholder shall be given free of charge a declaration of what is stated in the shareholders register concerning the Shares registered in his name.

5.1.5

If any Shares form part of an undivided community of property, the joint participants may only be represented towards the Company by a person who has been designated by them in writing for that purpose.

This article 5 equally applies to those who hold a right of usufruct or a right of pledge on one or more Shares, with the exception of a pledgee as referred to in section 2:86c(4) BW.

RIGHT OF PLEDGE AND RIGHT OF USUFRUCT

6.1

Right of pledge

6.1.1

Shares may be pledged.

6.1.2

The pledgee has the voting rights attached to pledged Shares if this was agreed in writing when the right of pledge was created or at a later date. In absence of such written agreement, the Shareholder holds the voting rights attached to the pledged Shares.

A right of usufruct may be created on Shares.

6.2.2

The usufructuary has the voting rights attached to the Shares subject to the right of usufruct if this was agreed in writing when the right of usufruct was created or at a later date.

6.2.3

Usufructuaries with voting rights have Meeting Rights. Usufructuaries without voting rights do not have Meeting Rights. Shareholders who do not have voting rights as a result of a right of usufruct, do have Meeting Rights.

TRANSFER OF SHARES

7.1

Transfer of Shares

The transfer of Shares requires a deed executed for that purpose and, save in the event that the Company itself is a party to the transaction, written acknowledgement of that transfer by the Company. Service of the deed of transfer or of a certified notarial copy or extract of that deed, on the Company, will be the equivalent of acknowledgement as stated in this article 7.1.1. This article 7.1.1 applies equally to the creation of a right of pledge or a right of usufruct on a Share, provided that a right of pledge may also be established without acknowledgement by or service on the Company, with due observance of section 2:86c(4) BW.

For as long as Shares are listed on a regulated foreign stock exchange, the Board may resolve, with due observation of applicable statutory provisions, that article 7.1.1 does not apply to Shares that are registered in the part of the shareholders register which is kept outside the Netherlands by a registrar appointed by the Board for the purpose of the listing on such foreign stock exchange, and that the property law aspects of such Shares shall be governed by the law of the state of establishment of such stock exchange or by the law of the state in which transfers and other legal acts under property law relating to such Shares can or must be made with the consent of such stock exchange.
