 Insider Trading Information
   Under Article 5:56 of Dutch Financial Supervision Act, anyone who has inside information related
to the Company is prohibited from effectuating a transaction in securities in or from the
Netherlands. Inside information is defined as knowledge of details concerning the issuing
company to which the securities relate that is not public and which, if published, would reasonably
be expected to affect the stock price, regardless of the development of the price. The insider
could be any employee of the Company or a subsidiary or affiliate in the Netherlands who has inside
information as described herein.
 Given the broad scope of the definition of inside information, certain employees of the Company
working at a subsidiary or affiliate in the Netherlands (including a Participant in the Plan) may
have inside information and, thus, would be prohibited from effectuating a transaction in
securities in the Netherlands at a time when Participant had such inside information.
