In 2010, Ahold performed an intra-group reorganization of part of its finance and holding activities. Certain investments, including the
investment in Ahold's unconsolidated joint venture ICA, were transferred from the Parent company to a newly established Swiss
subsidiary, Ahold International Sarl (AIS), in exchange for a 75 percent ownership interest in AIS. The remaining 25 percent ownership
interest in AIS is owned by another Ahold's subsidiary, Ahold Finance U.S.A., LLC. Loans previously held by the Parent company from
and to subsidiaries were terminated, and a new loan was issued to AIS in the amount of $2.5 billion.
