AEGON determines stock fraction final dividend 2011 at 1/33 
 
AEGON shareholders approved the proposed 2011 final dividend at the Annual 
General Meeting on 
May 16, 2012. Shareholders were given the choice between a final dividend in 
either cash or stock. 
 
The cash dividend amounts to EUR 0.10 per common share and will be payable as 
of June 15, 2012. 
 
Shareholders who elected a stock dividend will receive one new AEGON common 
share for every 33 common shares held. The stock fraction is based on AEGON's 
average share price as quoted on the Euronext Amsterdam Stock Exchange, 
calculated over the five trading days from June 4 up to and including June 8, 
2012. The stock dividend and the cash dividend are approximately equal in 
value.

    ratings of the company's counterparties; 
 
  * Consequences of a potential (partial) break-up of the euro;

  * Changes affecting interest rate levels and continuing low or rapidly 
    changing interest rate levels; changes affecting currency exchange rates,

    in which AEGON operates;

    regulatory or commercial necessity to meet changing customer expectations; 
 
  * Acts of God, acts of terrorism, acts of war and pandemics; 
 
  * Changes in the policies of central banks and/or governments; 
 
  * Lowering of one or more of AEGON's debt ratings issued by recognized rating

    ability to raise capital and on its liquidity and financial condition; 
 
  * Lowering of one or more of insurer financial strength ratings of AEGON's 
    insurance subsidiaries and the adverse impact such action may have on the

  * The effect of the European Union's Solvency II requirements and other 
    regulations in other jurisdictions affecting the capital AEGON is required 
    to maintain; 
 
  * Litigation or regulatory action that could require AEGON to pay significant 
    damages or change the way the company does business; 
 
  * As AEGON's operations support complex transactions and are highly dependent

    reputation and adversely affect its results of operations, financial 
    condition and cash flows; 
 
  * Customer responsiveness to both new products and distribution channels; 
 
  * Competitive, legal, regulatory, or tax changes that affect profitability, 
    the distribution cost of or demand for AEGON's products; 
 
  * Changes in accounting regulations and policies may affect AEGON's reported 
    results and shareholder's equity; 
 
  * The impact of acquisitions and divestitures, restructurings, product 
    withdrawals and other unusual items, including AEGON's ability to integrate 
    acquisitions and to obtain the anticipated results and synergies from 
    acquisitions; 
 
  * Catastrophic events, either manmade or by nature, could result in material 
    losses and significantly interrupt AEGON's business; and 
 
  * AEGON's failure to achieve anticipated levels of earnings or operational 
    efficiencies as well as other cost saving initiatives.
