Component Changes Made To Dow Jones Netherlands Titans 30 Index

Dow Jones Indexes, a leading global index provider, today announced component changes to the Dow Jones Netherlands Titans 30 Index.

Effective as of the opening of trading on Monday, December 19, 2005, TomTom B.V. (Technology) will replace Versatel Telecom International N.V. (Telecommunications) in the Dow Jones Netherlands Titans 30 Index.

Versatel Telecom International N.V. is being removed because the company’s free-float market capitalization fails to meet the market capitalization screening criteria. As a result, it will be replaced by the highest-ranked non-component company. Normally, changes are made to the Dow Jones Netherlands Titans 30 Index annually in March; however, extraordinary deletions can occur throughout the year.
