SELECTED HISTORICAL FINANCIAL DATA<br />

In the following table, we provide you with our selected historical financial data. We have prepared<br />

this information using our consolidated financial statements for the five years ended December 31,<br />

2008 and the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2009. The financial statements for the five<br />

fiscal years ended December 31, 2008 have been audited by Ernst & Young Accountants LLP,<br />

independent registered public accounting firm. These financial statements do not give effect to the<br />

required retrospective application of International Financial Reporting Standard 8, Operating Segments<br />

and International Accounting Standard 1 (revised), Presentation of Financial Statements, adopted by<br />

AEGON effective January 1, 2009. The selected historical financial data for the nine months ended<br />

September 30, 2008 and 2009 have been derived from our unaudited interim condensed consolidated<br />

financial statements, which have been prepared on the same basis as our audited financial statements<br />

(with the exception of the adoption of IFRS 8 and IAS 1 (revised), effective January 1, 2009) and, in<br />

the opinion of our management, reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair<br />

presentation of our financial position and results of operations as of the end of and for such periods.<br />

The results for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 may not be indicative of the operating<br />

results to be expected for the entire year.<br />

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial<br />

Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union and with International Financial Reporting<br />

Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.<br />

When you read this selected historical financial data, it is important that you read it in conjunction<br />

with, and it is qualified by reference to, the historical financial statements and related notes in<br />

AEGON N.V.’s annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2008 and the Half-Year<br />

Report, including the section titled ‘‘Operating and Financial Review and Prospects’’, as well as in the<br />

information relating to our results for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 furnished to the SEC<br />

on Form 6-K and incorporated by reference in this prospectus.<br />
