Dekker has an impressive track record within both our domestic and international

Abolition variable remuneration Executive Board
The variable remuneration for the Executive Board Rabobank Nederland has been
abolished. This decision by the Supervisory Board follows earlier announcements
that no variable remuneration would be awarded to the Executive Board in 2012
and 2013.
Rabobank reached agreement on a new Collective Labour Agreement for its 35,000
employees in the Netherlands earlier this year. This agreement included the
cutting of general wage increases until 2016, and the abolition of variable
remuneration for most Rabobank employees.
Wout Dekker, Chairman of the Supervisory Board, comments : "With the abolition
of the variable remuneration for the Executive Board, we are taking into account
the views of our key stakeholders: our customers and members. In addition, we
respond to widely held public views regarding bank executives' pay. The
Supervisory Board has concluded that variable remuneration for our Executive
Board is no longer compatible with the economic role Rabobank plays in Dutch
society.
