 Article 11 - Severance arrangement in the event of termination in connection with a merger, takeover or fundamental
changes 
  

	11.1	In the event notice of termination of this agreement is given by AEGON in connection with a merger, takeover or fundamental changes in policy and related organizational amendments,
AEGON will pay the Executive compensation for damages, based on the provisions of the articles 11.2 and 11.3, at the end of the employment agreement. 

  
 AEGON will pay the Executive the same compensation for damages in case of giving notice of termination of this agreement by
the Executive, provided that this notice of termination is directly related to a merger, takeover, fundamental changes in policy and related organizational amendments or the appointment by AEGON of a Executive with a higher position in law and/or in
fact, so that the Executive is no longer able to carry out his function at the level at which he carried it out previously. 
  

	11.2	The sum of the compensation for damages is established on the basis of the so-called ‘Zwartkruis” formula, appended as Exhibit as further determined below, With regard to
the scale assigned to the Executive, and with regard to the components to be multiplied with the normative monthly salary “S”, the parties have agreed as follows: 

  

	 	•	 	with regard to determining factor b (years of service), the date referred to in Article 3.1 applies as the date of entry into employment and the years of service up to the moment on
which the Executive was appointed Executive of AEGON count for 75% of the relevant number of years; 

  

	 	•	 	with regard to determining factor c (level of position), the number which applies is 5; 

  

	 	•	 	with regard to determining factor d (possibility of reassignment), the following numbers apply to the ages 45-55: up to the age of 48, the number 3 is retained, from the age of 49,
the number 2; 

  

	 	•	 	the normative monthly salary consists of the following components: one/twelfth of the following calculation: the fixed annual income (twelve monthly basic salaries, holiday
allowance and thirteenth month) + 20% thereof for pension premium + an amount equal to the amount paid lastly with respect to the profit sharing arrangement ÷ an amount equal to the short-term incentive compensation as referred to in Section
5.3 (to be) paid with respect to the last three full fiscal years divided by three. With respect to the reduction on mortgage interest rates and insurance a flat amount of NLG 17,800 applies. The last sum will be index-linked, in accordance with the
salary rounds as indicated in Article 5.2, as these will have taken place from today, up to the time that the compensation for damages has been determined, 

  
 S shall be a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 60. As the summary of components shows, the compensation for damages also covers
compensation for any pension loss. 
  

	11.3	 However, the total compensation for damages shall never amount to more than the income which the Executive would have enjoyed if the employment agreement 



  

 5 









	 	 
had continued until his retirement from the time of the termination of the employment agreement, assuming that on the basis of the provision of Article 10,
recourse would have been taken to the possibility of the Executive’s early retirement and becoming non-active from the earliest possible date referred to in Article 10.1. 


  
 The calculation in comparing the total compensation for damages with the
income which the Executive would have enjoyed if the employment agreement had continued, is made as follows: 
  
 the income which the Executive would have enjoyed if the employment agreement had continued until his retirement is capitalized with a discount
percentage, based on the interest percentage that corresponds with the average CBS returns on government loans with a duration of 4—5, 5—6 and 6—7 years respectively. To calculate the monthly returns on the basis of these annual
returns, the outcome is to be multiplied by a factor of 0.95, after which the income thus capitalized is to be decreased by the current normal income tax rate. To qualify as income, the same components are taken into account as for the calculation
of the compensation, with the understanding that the components falling away upon non-activity shall, in virtue of the provisions of article 10, no longer be taken into account in a time relation to the first possible date of non-activity as
referred to in article 10.1. In the event that the capitalized income, decreased by the income tax on such income, should be smaller than the compensation, decreased by the income tax due upon payment to the Executive in one lump sum, the
compensation without deduction of the income tax due on it shall be reduced and be fixed at an amount that shall be equal, after such amount has been decreased by income tax, to the capitalized income, decreased by the income tax due thereon.

  
 Article 12 - Restraint of Competition 
  

	12.1	If: 

  

	 	•	 	the employment agreement is terminated on the Executive’s initiative, or 

  


	 	•	 	the employment agreement is terminated on the initiative of AEGON, and this initiative is taken in a situation in which the Executive is liable to pay damages
(“schadeplichtig”), 

  
 the Executive
undertakes for a period of one year following the effective date of termination of the employment agreement, not to be employed or involved in any way, directly or indirectly, either for his own account or for the account of others, in or by any
company which carries on activities in a field that is similar to, or in any other way in competing with the activities of the AEGON concern, nor to act as an intermediary thereby in any way, either directly or indirectly. This restraint of
competition applies worldwide for the period indicated. Following a written request with regard to a specific activity or involvement, the Supervisory Board can grant the Executive exemption. Such exemption is valid between the parties only if it
has been granted in writing in a registered letter sent to the Executive, signed by the Chairman on behalf of the Supervisory Board.

 Article 13 - Previous agreements 
  

	13.1	This agreement supersedes all previous agreements and takes their place. After this agreement has been signed, AEGON and the Executive can no longer derive any rights from
agreements which have been superseded herewith. 

  
 Article 14 -
Arbitration 
  

	14.1	Any disputes arising in connection with this agreement, or further agreements resulting thereof, shall be finally settled in accordance with the Rules of the Netherlands Arbitration
Institute in Rotterdam. The Arbitration Tribunal shall be composed of three arbiters. The place of arbitration shall be The Hague.
