ASML Adapts Disclosure of Financial Results to Conform with New Disclosure Regime in the Netherlands
VELDHOVEN, the Netherlands, January 5, 2006 - ASML Holding NV (ASML) today announced that it will disclose its 2005 Annual and Fourth Quarter results on the previously scheduled date of January 18, 2006 through a press release and a single conference call for investors and media. This is to further ensure ASML's continuous compliance with the new disclosure regime as enforced by the Netherlands Authority for the Financial Markets (AFM), the newly appointed supervising authority for disclosure matters in the Netherlands.

* | Press release at 8:00 AM Central European Time |
* | A conference call for investors and media, hosted by CEO Eric Meurice and CFO Peter Wennink, at 15:00 PM Central European Time / 09:00 AM Eastern U.S. time.
