[1] The Executive Committee consisted of 13 members as per December 31, 2021 (2020: 15 members; 2019: 14 members)

[2] The annual incentives are related to the performance in the year reported which are paid out in the subsequent year.

[3] Costs of performance shares and restricted share rights are based on accounting standards (IFRS) and do not reflect the value of performance shares at the vesting/release date

[4] For 2021, a release of EUR 0 (2020: EUR 554,437; 2019: EUR 0) is included due to non-vesting of performance shares

[5] Pension allowances are gross taxable allowances paid to the Executive Committee members in the Netherlands. These allowances are part of the pension arrangement

[6] The stated amounts mainly concern (share of) allowances to members of the Executive Committee that can be considered as remuneration. In a situation where such a share of an allowance can be considered as (indirect) remuneration (for example, private use of the company car), then the share is both valued and accounted for here. The method employed by the fiscal authorities is the starting point for the value stated
