<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The articles of association of the Registrant require the Registrant to indemnify members of the supervisory board and board of management against liabilities (including legal
expenses) incurred due to acts or omissions in acting in such capacity, except (i)&nbsp;to the extent that a court in the Netherlands irrevocably establishes that such acts or omissions
are the result of willful misconduct or intentional recklessness (unless the denial of indemnification or reimbursement of expenses would be, in view of all circumstances, contrary
to reasonableness and fairness), and (ii)&nbsp;to the extent that such losses are reimbursed by insurance. In addition, the Registrant&#146;s articles of association provide that at each
ordinary annual general meeting of shareholders, the shareholders may discharge the supervisory board and the board of management from liability for the performance of their
respective duties in the preceding financial year. Under Netherlands&#146; law, this discharge is not absolute, and would not be effective as to any matter not disclosed in the annual
accounts of the Registrant and the report of the board of management, as presented to or adopted by the general meeting of shareholders. Members of the board of management and the
supervisory board of the Registrant are also party to agreements with the Registrant providing for indemnification by the Registrant in circumstances similar to those provided for

as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by
such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been
settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <U>Incentive Stock Option Limit</U>. Each Option shall be designated in the Option
Agreement as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonstatutory Stock Option. However,
notwithstanding such designation, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares
with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by the Optionee
during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and any Parent or Subsidiary) exceeds
$100,000, such Options shall be treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options. For purposes of this
Section&nbsp;6(a), Incentive Stock Options shall be taken into account in the order in which they were
granted. The Fair Market Value of the Shares shall be determined as of the time the Option with
respect to such Shares is granted.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <U>At-Will Employment</U>. Neither the Plan nor any Option or Stock Purchase Right shall
confer upon any Optionee any right with respect to continuing the Optionee&#146;s relationship as a
Service Provider with the Company, nor shall it interfere in any way with his or her right or the
Company&#146;s right to terminate such relationship at any time, with or without cause, and with or
without notice.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.&nbsp;<U>Term of Plan</U>. Subject to stockholder approval in accordance with Section&nbsp;19, the
Plan shall become effective upon its adoption by the Board. Unless sooner terminated under Section
15, it shall continue in effect for a term of ten (10)&nbsp;years from the later of (i)&nbsp;the effective
date of the Plan, or (ii)&nbsp;the earlier of the most recent board or stockholder approval of an
increase in the number of Shares reserved for issuance under the Plan.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.&nbsp;<U>Term of Option</U>. The term of each Option shall be stated in the Option Agreement;

Option is granted, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all
classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the term of the Option shall be five

Option shall be exercised, (5)&nbsp;consideration received by the Company under a cashless exercise
program implemented by the Company in connection with the Plan, or (6)&nbsp;any combination of the
foregoing methods of payment. In making its determination as to the type of consideration to

shall be exercisable according to the terms hereof at such times and under such conditions as
determined by the Administrator and set forth in the Option Agreement. An Option may not be
exercised for a fraction of a Share. Except in the case of Options granted to officers, Directors
and Consultants, Options shall become exercisable at a rate of no less than 20% per year over five
(5)&nbsp;years from the date the Options are granted.

Option, and (ii)&nbsp;full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised. Full
payment may consist of any consideration and method of payment authorized by the Administrator and
permitted by the Option Agreement and the Plan. Shares issued upon exercise of an Option shall be
issued in the name of the Optionee or, if requested by the Optionee, in the name of the Optionee
and his or her spouse. Until the Shares are issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the

Service Provider, such Optionee may exercise his or her Option within thirty (30)&nbsp;days of
termination, or such longer period of time as specified in the Option Agreement, to the extent that
the Option is vested on the date of termination (but in no event later than the expiration of the
term of the Option as set forth in the Option Agreement). If, on the date of termination, the
Optionee is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion
of the Option shall revert to the Plan. If, after termination, the Optionee does not exercise his

result of the Optionee&#146;s Disability, the Optionee may exercise his or her Option within six (6)
months of termination, or such longer period of time as specified in the Option Agreement, to the
extent the Option is vested on the date of termination (but in no event later than the expiration
of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement). If, on the date of termination,
the Optionee is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested
portion of the Option shall revert to the Plan. If, after termination, the Optionee does not
exercise his or her Option within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate, and the
Shares covered by such Option shall revert to the Plan.

specified in the Option Agreement, to the extent that the Option is vested on the date of death
(but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option
Agreement) by the Optionee&#146;s designated beneficiary, provided such beneficiary has been designated
prior to Optionee&#146;s death in a form acceptable to the Administrator. If no such beneficiary has
been designated by the Optionee, then such Option may be exercised by the personal representative
of the Optionee&#146;s estate or by the person(s) to whom the Option is transferred pursuant to the
Optionee&#146;s will or in accordance with the laws of descent and distribution. If, at the time of
death, the Optionee is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the
unvested portion of the Option shall immediately revert to the Plan. If the Option is not so
exercised within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered by
such Option shall revert to the Plan.

to, or in tandem with other awards granted under the Plan and/or cash awards made outside of the
Plan. After the Administrator determines that it will offer Stock Purchase Rights under the Plan,
it shall advise the offeree in writing or electronically of the terms, conditions and restrictions
related to the offer, including the number of Shares that such person shall be entitled to
purchase, the price to be paid, and the time within which such person must accept such offer. The
terms of the offer shall comply in all respects with Section&nbsp;260.140.42 of Title 10 of the
California Code of Regulations. The offer shall be accepted by execution of a Fonder&#146;s Stock

(including death or disability). The purchase price for Shares repurchased pursuant to the

paid by cancellation of any indebtedness of the purchaser to the Company. The repurchase option
shall lapse at such rate as the Administrator may determine.

his or her purchase is entered upon the records of the duly authorized transfer agent of the
Company. No adjustment shall be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is

another corporation, or a Change in Control, each outstanding Option and Stock Purchase Right shall
be assumed or an equivalent option substituted by the successor corporation or a Parent or
Subsidiary of the successor corporation. In the event that the successor corporation in a merger
or Change in Control refuses to assume or substitute for the Option or Stock Purchase Right, then
the Optionee shall fully vest in and have the right to exercise the Option or Stock Purchase Right
as to all of the Optioned Stock, including Shares as to which it would not otherwise be vested or
exercisable. If an Option or Stock Purchase Right becomes fully vested and exercisable in lieu of
assumption or substitution in the event of a merger or Change in Control, the Administrator shall
notify the Optionee in writing or electronically that this Option or Stock Purchase Right shall be
fully exercisable for a period of fifteen (15)&nbsp;days from the date of such notice, and the Option or
Stock Purchase Right shall terminate upon expiration of such period. For the purposes of this
paragraph, the Option or Stock Purchase Right shall be considered assumed if, following the merger
or Change in Control, the option or right confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Share
of Optioned Stock subject to the Option or Stock Purchase Right immediately prior to the merger or
Change in Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property)
received in the merger or Change in Control by holders of Common Stock for each Share held on the
effective date of the transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type
of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however,
that if such consideration received in the merger or Change in Control is not solely common stock
of the successor corporation or its Parent, the Administrator may, with the consent of the
successor corporation, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of the Option
or Stock Purchase Right, for each Share of Optioned Stock subject to the Option or Stock Purchase
Right, to be solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent equal in fair market
value to the per share consideration received by holders of common stock in the merger or Change in

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <U>Effect of Amendment or Termination</U>. No amendment, alteration, suspension or
termination of the Plan shall impair the rights of any Optionee, unless mutually agreed otherwise
between the Optionee and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the

intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a
representation is required.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;17.&nbsp;<U>Inability to Obtain Authority</U>. The inability of the Company to obtain authority
from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company&#146;s counsel to
be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, shall relieve the Company of
any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite
authority shall not have been obtained.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.&nbsp;<U>Reservation of Shares</U>. The Company, during the term of this Plan, shall at all

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I refer to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the &#147;Registration Statement&#148;) of ASML
Holding N.V., a Netherlands corporation (the &#147;Company&#148;) under the Securities Act of 1933 (the
&#147;Securities Act&#148;). The Registration Statement relates to up to 936,461 ordinary shares, nominal
value of <FONT face="'Times New Roman',times,serif">&#128;</FONT>0.02 per share, of ASML Holding N.V. (the &#147;Ordinary Shares&#148;), issuable under the Brion
Technologies, Inc., 2002 Stock Option Plan (as amended on March&nbsp;25, 2005; March&nbsp;24, 2006; and
November&nbsp;17, 2006) (the &#147;Plan&#148;).
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I have examined and am familiar with (i)&nbsp;the Company&#146;s Articles of Association, as amended and
(ii)&nbsp;the corporate proceedings relating to the Registration Statement. Upon the basis of the
foregoing, and having satisfied myself as to such other matters of law and fact as I consider
relevant for the purposes of this opinion, I advise you that, in my
opinion, upon issuance in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable Plan, the Ordinary Shares will have
been legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
