Rates of allowances are adapted in line with the evolution of the general standard of living by fixing an annual adjustment coefficient or flat-rate charge via benefit grant. The general rule for adjustment of pensions stipulates that the pensions granted before the 31 Dec of the preceding year shall be adjusted annually from 1 July by a decision of the Supervisory Board of the National Social Insurance Institute by a percentage equal to the sum of 50% Regulation allowing taking into account those persons entitled to an invalidity (disability) pension and receiving an activity income superior to the limit of EUR , under which activity is not subject to social insurance. In this case, the partial pension due is calculated by deducting a certain amount from the full rate pension, fixed in accordance with the different parts of the global income (activity income + pension). Up to a global income of EUR 1,037.20, the disability pension is entirely paid. The parts of the global income corresponding to an additional amount of EUR 518 are reduced by 30, 40, or 50% of the pension, the upper limit being 50% of the full rate pension. This means that the half of the full rate pension with an activity income is maintained. A professional activity during the period of disability may be authorised by the mutual insurance company's medical advisor. The amount of the daily benefit thus allocated may not exceed the daily amount that would be allocated if there were no accumulation. Full accumulation with earnings permitted.

For 2010 only, pensions will not be increased according to this rule. The percentage will be determined by the Council of Ministers depending on the implementation of the annual fiscal programme. Basic Insurable Earnings increased every year in line with an annual survey of wages and salaries. Basic Pensions are adjusted at the beginning of each year in accordance with the percentage of revision of the Basic Insurable Earnings. Supplementary Pensions are adjusted the same day, in accordance with the increase of the cost of living index (comparison of the second semesters of the last 2 years). Pensions (Basic and Supplementary Pensions) are also adjusted every July by the increase of the cost of living index (comparison of the 1st semester of that year with the 2nd semester of the previous one), if the latter is at least 1%. This increase is taken into account when determining the increase of the pensions at the beginning of the year. In case of partial invalidity, the period of employment and the amount of the salary are reduced accordingly. Page 2 of 13

Statutory earnings-related pension: Within certain limits, the pensioner is allowed to work while receiving pension. In the case of disability pension, if earnings are 40% but not 60% of the pensionable salary, the full disability pension is changed to a Partial disability pension.

5 Germany (cont.) criterion (without compensation for extra expenses for recipients of unemployment benefit II in subsidised community work). From 2006 the development of insurable income is also taken into consideration, when the relevant wage development is determined for the pension adjustment. Apart from wage development, changes of the pension insurance contribution rate and the increasing share of private old-age-provision (certain part of the income foreseen for private old-age pensions) and the development of the ratio between beneficiaries and employees liable to compulsory insurance (sustainability factor) are taken into consideration. Tax-related changes for employees, however, are not taken into consideration. The gradual increase of certain part of the income foreseen for private old-age pensions in the pension adjustment will be suspended in 2008 and 2009 due to a legal provision. Consequently, in 2009 there is a pension adjustment which is 0.63 percentage points higher. The calculation of the levels of increase of certain part of the income foreseen for private old-age pensions will be made up by the pension adjustment in 2012 and As a result, the gross pensions were adapted on 1 July 2009 by 2.41% in the old Länder and by 3.38% in the new Länder. The current pension value since 1 July 2009 amounts to EUR in the old Länder (West) and EUR in the new Länder (East). The taxable share on which the tax-free amount is determinedfor new pensions will be increased each year by 2% until 2020, and from 2021 to 2040 by 1% respectively. Page 5 of 13
