The Pledgor undertakes that no resolutions are passed which constitute a breach of its obligations under Clause 10.

7. ENFORCEMENT OF THE PLEDGES

7.1 If an Enforcement Event has occurred and is continuing and provided that the requirements set forth in Sections 1273 para 2, 1204 et seq. of the German Civil Code with regard to the enforcement of any of the Pledges are met (Pfandreife), in particular, if any of the Secured Obligations has become due and payable, then in order to enforce the Pledges (or any of them), any of the Pledgees, may at any time thereafter avail themselves of all rights and remedies that a pledgee has against a pledgor under the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany.

7.2 Notwithstanding Section 1277 of the German Civil Code, any of the Pledgees are entitled to exercise their rights without obtaining an enforceable judgment or other instrument (vollstreckbarer Titel). The Pledgees shall be entitled to have the Pledges enforced in any manner allowed under the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, in particular have the Pledges sold (including at public auction).

7.3 The Pledgor hereby expressly agrees that 5 (five) business days’ prior written notice to the Pledgor of the place and time of any such sale shall be sufficient and the Pledgees, shall not be obliged to deliver any further notices (including, but not limited to the notices set out under Section 1234 of the German Civil Code) to the Pledgor prior to such sale.

7.6 Even if the requirements for enforcement referred to under sub-Clause 7.1 above are met, none of the Pledgees shall, whether as proxy or otherwise, be entitled to exercise the voting rights attached to the Shares.

- 8 -

7.7 Each of the Pledgees may, in its sole discretion (acting reasonably), determine which of several security interests, if applicable, shall be used to satisfy the Secured Obligations. The Pledgor hereby expressly waives its right pursuant to Section 1230 sentence 2 of the German Civil Code to limit the realisation of the Pledges and pledges over the shares or partnership interests in one or more other companies to such number of pledges as are necessary to satisfy the Secured Obligations and agrees further that each of the Pledgees may decide to enforce the Pledges individually in separate proceedings or together with pledges over shares or partnership interests in one or more other companies at one single proceeding (Gesamtverwertung).

7.8 The Pledgor hereby expressly waives all defences of revocation (Einrede der Anfechtbarkeit) and set-off (Einrede der Aufrechenbarkeit) pursuant to Sections 770, 1211 of the German Civil Code.

7.9 The Pledgor hereby expressly waives its defences based on defences any Obligor might have against any of the Secured Obligations (Einreden des Hauptschuldners) pursuant to Section 1211 para 1 sentence 1 alternative 1 of the German Civil Code.

7.10 If the Pledges are enforced or if the Pledgor has discharged any of the Secured Obligations (or any part of them), Section 1225 of the German Civil Code (legal subrogation of claims to a pledgor - Forderungsübergang auf den Verpfänder) shall not apply and no rights of the Pledgees shall pass to the Pledgor by subrogation or otherwise, unless and until all Secured Obligations have been fully and finally discharged (other than (A) contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted, (B) obligations and liabilities under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements and (C) letters of credit which have been cash collateralized in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement).

The Net Assets shall be determined in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles applicable from time to time in Germany (Grundsätze ordnungsmäßiger Buchführung) and be based on the same principles that were applied by the Pledgor (or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner) in the preparation of its most recent annual balance sheet (Jahresbilanz).

(a) its (or, where the Pledgor is a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner’s) share capital (Stammkapital) as registered in the commercial register (Handelsregister) provided that any increase registered after the date of this Agreement shall not be taken into account unless (i) if the increase has been effected out of retained earnings (Kapitalerhöhung aus Gesellschaftsmitteln) such increase has been effected with the prior written consent of any of the Collateral Agents and, in any case, (ii) only to the extent it is fully paid up; and

KG, to, or for the benefit of, its general partner or any of its subsidiaries) and still outstanding from time to time.

- 10 -

8.2 The Pledgees agree not to apply in satisfaction of the Secured Obligations, but to release the proceeds of an enforcement of the Pledges granted by the Pledgor (the “Enforcement Proceeds”) if:

(a) (and to the extent that) the Pledges granted by the Pledgor constitute an Upstream- and/or Cross-Stream Security; and

(b) the application of the Enforcement Proceeds towards the satisfaction of the Secured Obligations would otherwise

(i) have the effect of reducing the Pledgor’s (or, where the Pledgor is a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner’s) Net Assets to an amount that is lower than the amount of its (or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner’s) Protected Capital or, if the amount of the Net Assets is already lower than the amount of its (or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner’s) Protected Capital, cause the Net Assets to be further reduced; and

(ii) thereby give rise to a violation of the capital maintenance requirement as set out in section 30 paragraph 1 of the German Limited Liability Companies Act (Gesetz betreffend die Gesellschaften mit beschränkter Haftung); and

(c) the Pledgor has complied with its obligation to deliver the Management Determination and the Auditor’s Determination, in each case together with an up-to-date balance sheet, in accordance with the requirements set out in paragraphs 8.3 and 8.4 below.

8.3 Within ten (10) business days after the Pledgor’s receipt of notice from any of the Collateral Agents, that it intends to enforce the Pledges, the Pledgor shall provide a certificate signed by its managing director(s) (Geschäftsführer) (in case of a GmbH & Co. KG, on behalf of the Pledgor’s general partner) confirming in writing if and to what extent the Pledges are an Up-stream and/or Cross-stream Security and to what extent an application of the Enforcement Proceeds towards the satisfaction of the Secured Obligations would have the effects referred to in paragraph 8.2(b) above (the “Management Determination”). Such confirmation shall comprise an up-to-date balance sheet of the Pledgor (and, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner) and a detailed calculation, based on the provisions of this Clause 8 (Release of Enforcement Proceeds) of the amount of the Net Assets and Protected Capital of the Pledgor (or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner) as well as the amount which should be released in order to prevent that the Net Assets of the Pledgor (or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner) fall below its Protected Capital (the “Release Amount”). The Pledgees shall be entitled to apply the Enforcement Proceeds towards the satisfaction of the Secured Obligations in an amount which pursuant to the Management Determination would not cause the effects set out in paragraph 8.2(b) above (irrespective of whether or not the relevant Collateral Agent agrees with the Management Determination).

8.4 If any Collateral Agent disagrees with the Management Determination, it may within fifteen (15) Business Days of its receipt request the Pledgor to deliver, at its own cost

- 11 -

and expense, within thirty (30) business days of such request an up-to-date balance sheet of the Pledgor (and, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, of its general partner), drawn-up by an auditor appointed by the Pledgor in consultation with the relevant Collateral Agent, together with a detailed calculation, based on the provisions of this Clause 8 (Release of Enforcement Proceeds), of the amount of the Net Assets and Protected Capital of the Pledgor (or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner) and the Release Amount (the “Auditor’s Determination”). The Pledgees shall be entitled to apply the Enforcement Proceeds towards the satisfaction of the Secured Obligations in an amount which pursuant to the Auditor’s Determination would not cause the effects set out in paragraph 8.2(b) above.

The Pledgees shall, not later than 5 business days after receipt of such Auditor’s Determination, release an amount equivalent to the Release Amount as determined in the Auditor’s Determination (or an amount equivalent to the additional amount (if any) by which the Release Amount as defined in the Auditor’s Determination exceeds the amount of Enforcement Proceeds already released to the Pledgor (if any) as applicable). For the avoidance of doubt, any Pledgee shall only be obligated to release amounts actually received by it out of the Enforcement Proceeds.

8.5 No reduction of the Enforcement Proceeds will prejudice the right of the Pledgees to apply the Enforcement Proceeds towards the satisfaction of the Secured Obligations (subject always to the operation of the limitations set out above at the time of such enforcement).

8.6 The Pledgor shall (and, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, shall procure that its general partner will) do everything commercially justifiable and legally permitted to avoid the Enforcement Proceeds becoming limited pursuant to the terms of this Clause 8 (Release of Enforcement Proceeds) and shall in particular, after the occurrence and continuation of an Enforcement Event and within three (3) months after a written request of any of the Collateral Agents realise at least at market value any of its (and, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, any of its general partner’s) assets that are not necessary, as determined by the relevant Pledgor in its sole discretion, for its business (nicht betriebsnotwendig) (or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, that of its general partner) and is shown in its (or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner’s) balance sheet with a book value that is in the reasonable opinion of the relevant Collateral Agent significantly lower than the market value.

9. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

10. UNDERTAKINGS OF THE PLEDGOR

During the term of this Agreement, the Pledgor undertakes to each of the Pledgees:

10.1 not to take, or participate in, any action which results or might reasonably result in the Pledgor’s loss of ownership of all or part of the Shares, or any other transaction which would have the same result as a sale, transfer or other disposal of the Shares or which would for any other reason materially adversely affect the security interest of the Pledgees or the security purpose (as described in Clause 5) or defeat, impair or circumvent the rights of the Pledgees except as permitted by the Secured Parties or unless permitted under the terms of the Secured Documents;

10.2 not to encumber, permit to subsist, create or agree to create any other security interest or third party right in or over the Shares or other rights subject to the Pledges except as set out in this Agreement or permitted under the terms of the Secured Documents;

10.4 to promptly notify the Pledgees, by notification in writing to each of the Collateral Agents, of any change in the shareholding in or capital of the Company and to promptly deliver to the Pledgees, by sending the same to each of the Collateral Agents, in their capacity as agent for and on behalf of the Pledgees, a copy of the updated shareholders list (Gesellschafterliste) and a copy of the amended articles of association (Satzung) both as filed (aufgenommen) with the commercial register (Handelsregister);

10.5 to promptly notify the Pledgees, by notification in writing to each of the Collateral Agents, of any encumbrance over the Shares (or part of them) or of the registration of an objection (Widerspruch) in relation to the Shares of the Pledgor in the shareholders list (Gesellschafterliste) as filed (aufgenommen) with the commercial register (Handelsregister). In the case of any attachment (Pfändung) in respect of any of the Shares, the Pledgor shall promptly notify the Pledgees, by notification in writing to each of the Collateral Agents, such notice to be accompanied by any documents the Pledgees might need to defend themselves against any claim of a third party. In

- 13 -

particular, the Pledgor shall promptly forward to each of the Collateral Agents a copy of the attachment order (Pfändungsbeschluss), any transfer order (Überweisungsbeschluss) and all other documents necessary for a defence against the attachment;

10.6 in the event of any increase in the capital of the Company and unless not prohibited under the terms of the Secured Documents, not to allow, without the prior written consent of the Secured Parties, acting through any of the Pledgees, any party other than himself to subscribe for any Future Shares, and not to defeat, impair or circumvent in any way the rights of the Pledgees created hereunder;

10.7 to refrain from any acts or omissions, the purpose or effect of which is or would be the dilution of the value of the Shares or the Shares ceasing to exist, unless permitted or not prohibited under the terms of the Secured Documents;

10.8 not to change the articles of association of the Company to the effect that any transfer of Shares shall only be possible with the consent of the shareholders;

10.9 not to amend, or vote for any amendment of, the articles of association of the Company to the extent that such amendment would or would be likely to materially and adversely affect the security interest of the Pledgees created hereunder without the prior written consent of the Secured Parties, acting through any of the Collateral Agents; and

10.10 insofar as additional declarations or actions are necessary for the creation of the Pledges (or any of them) in favour of the Pledgees (or any of them), to make such declarations and undertake such actions at its own costs and expenses at any of the Collateral Agent’s request.

11. DURATION AND INDEPENDENCE

11.1 This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until complete satisfaction of the Secured Obligations (other than (A) contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted, (B) obligations and liabilities under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements and (C) letters of credit which have been cash collateralized in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement). The Pledges shall not cease to exist, if the Loan Parties and/or the Notes Parties under the applicable Secured Documents have only temporarily discharged the respective Secured Obligations.

11.2 This Agreement shall create a continuing security and no change, amendment, or supplement whatsoever in the Secured Documents or in any document or agreement related to any of the Secured Documents shall affect the validity or the scope of this Agreement nor the obligations which are imposed on the Pledgor pursuant to it.

11.3 This Agreement is independent from any other security or guarantee which may have been or will be given to the Secured Parties or the Collateral Agents (or any of them). None of such other security shall prejudice, or shall be prejudiced by, or shall be merged in any way with this Agreement.

- 14 -

11.4 Waiving Section 418 of the German Civil Code, the Pledgor hereby agrees that the security created hereunder shall not be affected by any transfer or assumption of the Secured Obligations to, or by, any third party.

12. RELEASE OF PLEDGE (PFANDFREIGABE)

12.1 Upon complete and irrevocable satisfaction of the Secured Obligations (other than (A) contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted, (B) obligations and liabilities under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements and (C) letters of credit which have been cash collateralized in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement), the Pledgees will as soon as reasonably practicable declare the release of the Pledges (Pfandfreigabe) to the Pledgor. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties are aware that upon full and complete satisfaction of the Secured Obligations the Pledges, due to their accessory nature (Akzessorietät) cease to exist by operation of German mandatory law.

12.2 At any time when the total value of the aggregate security granted by the Pledgor and any of the other Obligors to secure the Secured Obligations (the “Security”), which can be expected to be realised in the event of an enforcement of the Security (realisierbarer Xxxx), more than temporarily exceeds 110% of the Secured Obligations (the “Limit”), the Pledgees shall on demand of the Pledgor release such part of the Security (Sicherheitenfreigabe) as the Pledgees may in their reasonable discretion determine so as to reduce the realisable value of the Security to the Limit.

13. PARTIAL INVALIDITY; WAIVER

13.1 The parties agree that should at any time, any provisions of this Agreement be or become void (nichtig), invalid or due to any reason ineffective (unwirksam) this will indisputably (unwiderlegbar) not affect the validity or effectiveness of the remaining provisions and this Agreement will remain valid and effective, save for the void, invalid or ineffective provisions, without any party having to argue (darlegen) and prove (beweisen) the parties’ intent to uphold this Agreement even without the void, invalid or ineffective provisions.

13.2 The void, invalid or ineffective provision shall be deemed replaced by such valid and effective provision that in legal and economic terms comes closest to what the parties intended or would have intended in accordance with the purpose of this Agreement if they had considered the point at the time of conclusion of this Agreement.

13.3 No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Pledgees, any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy prevent any further or other exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. The rights and remedies provided hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

13.4 In particular, the Pledges shall not be affected and shall in any event extend to any and all shares in the Company even if the number or nominal value of the relevant Existing Shares or the aggregate share capital of the Company as stated in Clause 2 are inaccurate or deviate from the actual facts.

The Notary advised the persons appearing:

• that a pledge is a security instrument of strictly accessory nature (which means that it comes into legal existence only if, to the extent that, and as long as, the underlying secured claims do in fact exist, and that the owners of the secured claims and the pledgees must be identical);

• that notwithstanding Section 16 para 3 German Limited Liability Companies Act (Gesetz betreffend die Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung) there is no bona fide creation, acquisition nor ranking of a pledge of shares (in the sense that the pledgees are protected if the shares purported to be pledged do not exist or have been previously encumbered for the benefit of a third party); and

• that the English original version of this Agreement will not be acceptable for enforcement but will have to be translated, by a certified translator, into German for such purposes.

The Notary is hereby instructed to give notice of this Agreement and the Pledges of the rights pursuant to Clause 3 and Clause 4 to the Company by means of sending to the Company a notice substantially in the form of Schedule 3 hereto which shall be accompanied by a certified copy of this Agreement.

The above Agreement including the Schedules was read aloud by the Notary to the persons appearing, approved by them and signed by the persons appearing and by the Notary in their own hand as follows:
