Section III
 Shares in the giro system; collective depot; giro depot;
fractional shares; share register and share certificates
 
 Article 7
 7.1
    
    The ordinary shares of four hundred and twenty-eight euro and fifty-seven eurocent (EUR 428.57)
each are numbered 1 to 2,400 inclusive. The other ordinary shares are numbered from 2,401 onwards,
without prejudice to the provisions of Article 9 and Article 11 hereof, regarding the numbering of
share certificates and of bookings in the share register respectively. The classes of preference
shares are numbered from 1 onwards and carry an indication of their class (6% and 7%,
respectively).7.2
    
    All shares shall be in registered form.7.3
    
    When a share is issued, the transfer for the purpose of incorporation of that share in the giro
depot or a collective depot for the respective class of shares can be effected by the Company
without the cooperation of the other affiliated institutions and the other participants in the
collective depot. For that purpose it is sufficient that the Company enters the share of that class
of shares in the share register in the name of the central institute or the affiliated institution,
as the case may be, thereby stating the fact that the share has become part of the giro depot or
the respective collective depot for that class of shares, as the case may be, and the other
information meant in Article 11, paragraph 2, and the central institute or the affiliated
institution, as the case may be, accepts the transfer. The ordinary shares numbered 1 to 2,400
inclusive cannot be transferred for the purpose of incorporation in a collective depot or the giro
depot.7.4
    
    If a share is transferred for the purpose of incorporation in a collective depot, the transfer
shall be accepted by the relevant affiliated institution. If a share is transferred for
incorporation in the giro depot, the central institute shall accept
the transfer. The transfer of a
share for which a share certificate has been issued for the purpose of incorporation in a
collective depot or the giro depot, can only be effected provided the share certificate has been
delivered to the Company for the purpose of cancellation. The transfer and acceptance may take
place without cooperation of the other participants in the collective depot and without the
cooperation of other affiliated institutions.

Section III
 7.5
    
    The Company may pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors preclude delivery of shares
within the meaning of section 26 of the Act on securities transactions by giro.
The resolution to that effect may not be invoked against a participant until six months after
publication of the resolution in at least one national newspaper. The Company may revoke the
resolution by way of a resolution of the Board of Directors. In such a case, delivery may
take place from the day following that of the announcement of that resolution in at least one
national newspaper.7.6
    
    An affiliated institution may transfer shares for the purpose of incorporation into the giro
depot and, to the extent that delivery has not been precluded, deliver shares from a collective
depot without the cooperation of the other participants. The central institute may, to the extent
that delivery has not been precluded, deliver shares from the giro depot for incorporation in a
collective depot without the cooperation of the other participants.7.7
    
    The Board of Directors may split shares into fractional shares. Fractional shares of the same
class, together representing the nominal amount of a share of that class, may be combined into one
share by the Board of Directors at the request of the holder of such fractional shares. The
provisions of these Articles of Association relating to shares, share certificates and shareholders
shall also apply to fractional shares, fractional share certificates and holders of fractional
shares, save in so far as the contrary is expressed or follows from the meaning of the relevant
provision.

receipts for shares
 
 Article 8
 8.1
    
    If shares or depositary receipts for shares form part of a community of property other than a
community of property resulting from the application of the Act on securities transactions by giro,
the Company is entitled to admit one person only, designated in writing by the joint participants
in that other community of property, to exercise the rights attached to such shares or depositary
receipts, except where otherwise provided by law or these Articles of Association. The joint
participants in that other community of property may also designate more than one person. If that
other community of property comprises shares, the joint participants in that other community of
property may determine at the time of the designation of the
representative or thereafter  but
only unanimously  that, if a joint participant in that other community of property so wishes, a
number of votes corresponding to his interest in that other community of property will be cast in
accordance with his instructions.The Company shall record these instructions in the share register referred to in Article 11 hereof.8.2
    
    If in respect of a share the shareholder rights vest in more than one person, then in these
Articles of Association, notwithstanding the provisions of the first paragraph, shareholder shall
mean the joint holders of that share.Furthermore, when mentioning is made of a request or any other action by a shareholder, these
Articles of Association shall refer to the corresponding action of a person, who is authorised to
perform that action on behalf of the shareholder or pursuant to his own right to perform that
action, except where otherwise provided by law or these Articles of Association.What has been provided above, shall correspondingly apply to depositary receipts for shares issued
with the co-operation of the Company.

    The following provisions shall apply to the transfer of a share,
notwithstanding Article 7, paragraphs 3 up to and including 6.13.2
    
    The transfer of a share shall require an instrument intended for such
purpose and, save when the Company itself is a party to such legal act, the
written acknowledgement by the Company of the transfer. The acknowledgement
shall be made in the instrument or by a dated statement on the instrument or on
a copy or extract thereof mentioning the acknowledgement signed as a true copy
by the notary or the transferor, or in the manner referred to in paragraph 3.
Service of such instrument or such copy or extract on the Company shall be
considered to have the same effect as an acknowledgement. The instrument may be placed on the reverse side of a share certificate.
In the case of a transfer of shares not paid up in full, the
acknowledgement may be made only if the instrument has a recorded, or
otherwise fixed, date.13.3
    
    Where a share certificate has been issued for a share the surrender to the
Company of the share certificate shall also be required for such transfer. Such
requirement shall not apply if the share certificate has been lost, stolen or
destroyed and cannot be replaced according to Article 10. If the share
certificate is surrendered to the Company, the Company may acknowledge the
transfer by making an annotation on such share certificate as proof of the
acknowledgement or by replacing the surrendered certificate by a new share
certificate registered in the name of the transferee with due observance of
Article 9, paragraph 1.13.4
    
    After deletion of the existing booking in the share register an initial
booking or an addition as referred to in Article 11 shall be recorded in the
name of the person entitled to the share.

place of the notice referred to in paragraph 3 of that section.14.2

accordance with the relevant statutory regulations in force, provided that if
a share certificate for the share is outstanding the lodgment of the share

designated for this purpose for all classes of shares, except for shares for
which a share certificate has been issued.41.2

outside the Netherlands, the payment shall be made on these shares in the
currency of the country concerned calculated at the Euro foreign exchange
reference rates as published by the European Central Bank or at another rate of
exchange to be determined by the Board of Directors in either case at the day
which is one day prior to the date on which such distribution is resolved upon
or on another day to be determined by the Board of Directors. If and to the
extent that on the first day on which the distribution is obtainable the
Company, in consequence of Government action, war or other exceptional
circumstances beyond its control, is unable to make payment at the place
designated outside the Netherlands or in the foreign currency, the Board of
Directors may to that extent designate one or more places in the Netherlands
instead, in which event the provisions of the preceding sentence hereof shall to
that extent no longer apply.41.3
    
    The Board of Directors shall determine the date from which a distribution
is obtainable. Different dates may be set in respect of the ordinary shares or
the various classes of preference shares and in respect of registered shares for
which share certificates are outstanding, shares for which bookings as referred
to in Article 11 hereof have been recorded in the share register or shares which
form part of a collective depot or the giro depot.41.4
    
    In respect of a distribution on a share, for which a share certificate is
outstanding or for which a booking as mentioned in Article 11 hereof has been
recorded in the share register, the Company shall be released as against the
person entitled thereto by placing whatsoever is obtainable at the disposal of or
dealing therewith as instructed by the person in whose name the share is recorded
at the time fixed for such purpose by the Board of Directors. Different times may
be fixed for the two categories mentioned in this paragraph.41.5
    
    Any resolution to make a distribution, and the places and times mentioned
in this Article shall be made known in such manner as the Board of Directors
may consider appropriate.41.6
    
    In the event of any right being granted to shareholders, not consisting of
a distribution out of profits or out of the liquidation balance and not included
among the powers described in Article 29 hereof, the provisions of the foregoing
paragraphs hereof shall apply thereto correspondingly.

Transitional provisions
 Article 46
 46.1
    
    In connection with the alteration of the Articles of Association which took
effect on the tenth day of May one thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine, the
ordinary shares with a nominal value of one Dutch guilder (NLG 1) as then stated
in the Articles of Association held by each shareholder have been converted into
such number of ordinary shares with a nominal value of one Dutch guilder and
twelve cents (NLG 1.12) as then stated in the Articles of Association, as results
from multiplying the total number of ordinary shares of one Dutch guilder (NLG 1)
as stated in the Articles of Association prior to such alteration of the Articles
of Association held by such shareholder with one hundred/one hundred twelfth. A
possible fraction of one ordinary share of one Dutch guilder and twelve cents
(NLG 1.12) as then stated in the Articles of Association resulting from this
multiplication has been converted into one or more subshares of ordinary shares
of one Dutch guilder and twelve cents (NLG 1.12) as then stated in the Articles
of Association, hereafter called Scrips, of one cent (NLG 0.01) as then stated
in the Articles of Association, with if necessary a rounding upward to a full
Scrip.In connection with an alteration of the Articles of Association which has
become effective on the twenty-second day of May two thousand and six, a Scrip
shall be deemed to be a subshare entitled to three/one hundred and twelfth
(3/112) part of one (1) ordinary share with a nominal value of sixteen eurocent
(EUR 0.16) each.46.2
    
    As long as Scrips are outstanding as a consequence of conversion of
ordinary shares as provided in this Article, the following provisions apply.46.3
    
    The Scrips are to bearer. Only bearer certificates will be issued for the
Scrips, together with a dividend sheet, not consisting of separate dividend
coupons.46.4
    
    Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 3, the provisions of Title 4 of
Book 2 of the Dutch Civil Code on shares and shareholders apply accordingly to
Scrips and holders of Scrips, to the extent not stipulated otherwise in those
provisions.46.5
    
    The provisions of these Articles of Association on ordinary shares
respectively on holders of such shares apply accordingly to Scrips and holders
of Scrips, to the extent those provisions and the paragraphs 6, 7 and 8
hereafter do not stipulate otherwise.46.6
    
    The holder of a Scrip can not elect to register the Scrip in his name. The
Board of Directors may determine that a Scrip, whether or not temporarily, shall
be in registered form.46.7
    
    Every holder of a Scrip is entitled to three/one hundred and twelfth
(3/112) of the (interim) dividend and any other distribution to which the
holder of an ordinary share is entitled.

Section X
 46.8
    
    In the event the holder of a Scrip acquires such number of Scrips that
he holds in total one hundred and twelve (112) or more Scrips, then, in
deviation from what has been provided in Article 7, paragraph 6, each time one
hundred and twelve (112) Scrips held by him are automatically converted in three
ordinary shares with a nominal value of sixteen eurocent (EUR 0.16) each, for
which the Company shall enter the holder of these shares in the share register,
unless that shareholder elects for a direct transfer for incorporation in a
collective depot. Certificates to bearer of Scrips which will then be converted
have to be delivered to the Company. The Company may charge costs for
conversion.
 Article 47
 47.1
    
    The share certificates issued before the tenth day of May one thousand nine
hundred and ninety-nine according to Model B for ordinary shares with a nominal
value of one Dutch guilder (NLG 1) as then stated in the Articles of Association
had to be exchanged after the alteration to the Articles of Association which
took effect on the tenth day of May one thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine by
the relevant shareholder for share certificates according to Model B of ordinary
shares with a nominal value of one Dutch guilder and twelve cents (NLG 1.12) as
stated in the Articles of Association following such alteration of the Articles
of Association by applying the calculation set forth in Article 46, paragraph 1.
In connection with the split of one ordinary share into three ordinary shares of
nominal value sixteen eurocent (EUR 0.16) each, the share certificates according
to Model B which have not been exchanged on the twenty-second day of May two
thousand and six are since that date deemed to be share certificates according to
Model B with a nominal value of sixteen eurocent (EUR 0.16). The Company may
charge costs for such exchange.47.2
    
    Contrary to the provision of paragraph 1 of this Article, every registered
share certificate in respect of an ordinary share which is co-signed by the
financial institution at that time designated and which is issued in pursuance of
a version of these Articles of Association in force prior to the tenth day of May
one thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine, will have to be returned to a
financial institution designated by the Company, in exchange for which the
shareholders will be directly registered in the New York share register of the
Company maintained by the financial institution designated by the Company.
Certificates of shares will only be issued to these shareholders at their
request and the Company may charge costs for such issuing of certificates.
In order to exercise rights attached to the registered shares in respect of
which certificates have been issued which are co-signed by the financial
institution at that time designated, after the thirtieth day of July one
thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine, the holders of such shares will have
to have exchanged these certificates for a direct registration in the New
York share register of the Company maintained by the financial institution
designated by the Company.

Section X
 47.3
    
    Every booking before the tenth day of May one thousand nine hundred and
ninety-nine in the share register of ordinary shares of one Dutch guilder (NLG 1)
will be deemed to be a registration of such number of ordinary shares with a
nominal value of sixteen eurocent (EUR 0.16) as results from applying the
calculation described in Article 46, paragraph 1. Scrips are not registered in
the share register, unless the Board of Directors has determined that a Scrip,
whether or not temporarily, shall be in registered form or that the provisions of
Article 46, paragraph 8 are applicable.47.4
    
    Reference is made to the following transitional provision which forms part of the Articles of
Association as from the thirteenth day of October nineteen hundred and ninety-seven:In order to exercise rights attached to ordinary shares of four Dutch guilders each
outstanding on the thirteenth day of October one thousand nine hundred and ninety-seven and in
respect of which type A certificates have been issued, after the first day of March one thousand
nine hundred and ninety-eight, the holders of such shares will have to have exchanged the type A
share certificates into type B share certificates in respect of ordinary shares of one Dutch
guilder (NLG 1).

of a right of usufruct and holders of a right of pledge can no longer exercise
the rights attached to their shares (or have their rights exercised), as long as

and six the Company may charge the cost for the registration in the share
register as meant in this Article.
