Remuneration Supervisory Board

Payments to Supervisory Board members

Members of AEGON's Supervisory Board are entitled to the following:

• A base fee for membership of the Supervisory Board itself
• A fee for each of the Supervisory Board's committees
• An attendance fee for each committee meeting Supervisory Board members attend in person.

Each of these fees is a fixed amount. Members of AEGON's Supervisory Board do not receive any performance or equity-related compensation, and do not accrue pension rights with the company. These measures are designed to ensure the  independence of Supervisory Board members and strengthen the overall effectiveness of AEGON's corporate governance.

In 2009, AEGON's Supervisory Board members received EUR 846,154 in base and attendance fees. For more details, please refer to the Annual Report, available online at www.aegon.com
