Prospectus supplement US007924AH66 - Aegon

AEGON N.V. will waive any right to require a proceeding against AFC before its obligations under the
guarantees of debt securities of AFC shall become effective. There are no limitations under the laws of
the Netherlands or the articles of incorporation of AEGON N.V. on the right of non-residents of the
Netherlands to hold the debt securities issued by AEGON N.V.
Form, Exchange and Transfer
Unless otherwise specified in the related prospectus supplement or, if applicable, the related
pricing supplement, the debt securities of each series will be issuable in fully registered form, without
coupons, in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof.
Unless otherwise specified in the related prospectus supplement, or, if applicable, the related
pricing supplement, any payments of principal, interest and premium on registered debt securities will
be payable and, subject to the terms of the indenture and the limitations applicable to global securities,
debt securities may be transferred or exchanged, at any office or agency we maintain for such purpose,
without the payment of any service charge except for any applicable tax or governmental charge.
Global Securities
The debt securities of a series may be issued in the form of one or more global certificates that
will be deposited with a depositary identified in a prospectus supplement or, if applicable, the related
pricing supplement. Unless a global certificate is exchanged in whole or in part for debt securities in
definitive form, a global certificate may generally be transferred only as a whole and only to the
depositary or to a nominee of the depositary or to a successor depositary or its nominee.
Unless your prospectus supplement provides otherwise, the securities will initially be issued to
investors only in book-entry form. We will issue and register in the name of one or more financial
institutions or clearing systems or their nominees, one or more fully registered global certificates,
representing the total aggregate number of securities. A financial institution or clearing system that we
select for the purpose is called the ‘‘depositary’’ for that security. A security will usually have only one
depositary, but it may have more.
Each series of securities will have one or more of the following as the depositaries:
• DTC;
• Euroclear;
• a financial institution holding the securities on behalf of Clearstream, Luxembourg; or
• any other clearing system or financial institution named in the applicable prospectus supplement.
The depositaries named above may also be participants in one another’s systems. Thus, for
example, if DTC is the depositary for a global security, investors may hold beneficial interests in that
security through Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg as DTC participants. The depositary or
depositaries for your securities will be named in your prospectus supplement; if none is named, the
depositary will be DTC.
DTC has provided us the following information, and we take no responsibility for its accuracy.
DTC is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a ‘‘banking
organization’’ within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve
System, a ‘‘clearing corporation’’ within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and
a ‘‘clearing agency’’ registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Exchange Act. DTC
holds securities that its participants deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the settlement among its
participants of securities transactions, such as transfers and pledges, in deposited securities through
electronic computerized book-entry changes in its participants’ accounts, eliminating the need for
