      Whereas:
      
                  (1)
               
               
                  For practical reasons, the points under the headings ‘ACTS OF WHICH THE CONTRACTING PARTIES SHALL TAKE DUE ACCOUNT’, ‘ACTS OF WHICH THE CONTRACTING PARTIES SHALL TAKE NOTE’ and ‘II. SAFEGUARDING OF SUPPLEMENTARY PENSION RIGHTS’ in Annex VI to the EEA Agreement shall be renumbered.

                  Decision No S7 of 22 December 2009 (1) was replaced by Decision No S10 (2), which are both incorporated into the EEA Agreement, and consequently the reference to Decision No S7 should be deleted from the EEA Agreement.
               
            
                  (3)
