The Collateral Agent may appoint a qualified third party to make (or to assist the Collateral Agent in making) such valuation;

6.1.2 sell the Pledged Portfolio in a private sale at normal commercial terms (conditions commerciales normales), or in a sale organised by a stock exchange (to be chosen by the Collateral Agent), or in a public sale (organised at the discretion of the Collateral Agent and which, for the avoidance of doubt, does not need to be made by or within a stock exchange);

7.3 The Pledge shall be cumulative, in addition to, and independent of every other security which the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties may at any time hold as security for the Secured Obligations or any rights, powers and remedies provided by law and shall not operate so as in any way to prejudice or affect or be prejudiced or affected by any security interest or other right or remedy which the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties may now or at any time in the future have in respect of the Secured Obligations.

- 9 -

7.4 This Pledge shall not be prejudiced by any time or indulgence granted to any person, or any abstention or delay by the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties in perfecting or enforcing any security interest or rights or remedies that the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties may now or at any time in the future have from or against the Pledgor or any other person.

7.5 No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties to exercise, or delay on its part in exercising, any of its rights under this Pledge Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any further or other exercise of that or any other rights.

7.6 Neither the obligations of the Pledgor contained in this Pledge Agreement nor the rights, powers and remedies conferred upon the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties by this Pledge Agreement or by law, nor the Pledge created hereby shall be discharged, impaired or otherwise affected by:

7.6.1 any amendment to, or any variation, waiver or release of, any Secured Obligation or of the obligations of any Loan Parties under any other Loan Documents;

7.6.2 any failure to take, or fully to take, any security contemplated by the Loan Documents or otherwise agreed to be taken in respect of the Secured Obligations;

7.6.3 any failure to realise or fully to realise the value of, or any release, discharge, exchange or substitution of, any security taken in respect of the Secured Obligations; or

7.6.4 any other act, event or omission which, but for this Clause 7.6, might operate to discharge, impair or otherwise affect any of the obligations of the Pledgor contained in this Pledge Agreement, the rights, powers and remedies conferred upon the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties by this Pledge Agreement, the Pledge or by law.

7.7 For the avoidance of doubt, the Pledgor hereby waives any rights arising for it now or in the future (if any) under Article 2037 of the Luxembourg Civil Code.

7.8 Subject to the terms of the Principal Finance Documents, neither the Collateral Agent, nor the Secured Parties or any of their agents shall be liable by reason of (a) taking any action permitted by this Pledge Agreement or (b) any neglect or default in connection with the Pledged Portfolio or (c) the realisation of all or any part of the Pledged Portfolio, except in the case of bad faith, gross negligence or wilful misconduct upon their part.

8. INDEMNITY

To the extent set out in Section 4.11 of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the Pledgor shall, notwithstanding any release or discharge of all or any part of the security, indemnify the Collateral Agent, its agents, its attorneys and any delegate against any action, proceeding, claims, losses, liabilities, expenses, demands, taxes, and costs which it may sustain as a consequence of any breach by the Pledgor of the provisions of this Pledge Agreement, the exercise or purported exercise of any of the rights and powers conferred on them by this Pledge Agreement or otherwise relating to the Pledged Portfolio.

- 10 -

9. DELEGATION

Subject to Section 4.05 of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement (to the extent permitted by Luxembourg law), the Collateral Agent shall have full power to delegate (either generally or specifically) the powers, authorities and discretions conferred on it by this Pledge Agreement (including the power of attorney) on such terms and conditions as it shall see fit, which delegation shall not preclude either the subsequent exercise, any subsequent delegation or any revocation of such power, authority or discretion by the Collateral Agent itself.

10. RIGHTS OF RECOURSE

10.1 For as long as the Secured Obligations are outstanding and have not been unconditionally and irrevocably paid and discharged in full or the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties have any obligations under the Loan Documents, the Pledgor shall not exercise any Rights of Recourse, arising for any reason whatsoever, by any means whatsoever (including for the avoidance of doubt, by way of provisional measures such as provisional attachment (“saisie-arrêt conservatoire”) or by way of set-off).

10.2 The Pledgor irrevocably agrees to waive its Rights of Recourse if the relevant person against whom the Rights of Recourse are to be exercised has come under the direct or indirect control of the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties or any third party following or in connection with, the enforcement of any security granted in connection with the Secured Obligations.

10.3 Without prejudice to Clause 10.1 above, this Clause shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any discharge, release or termination of this Pledge (whether or not in accordance with Clause 7.2 of this Pledge Agreement).

11. PARTIAL ENFORCEMENT

Subject to Clause 6 (Remedies upon Default), the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to request enforcement of all or part of the Pledged Portfolio in its most absolute discretion. No action, choice or absence of action in this respect, or partial enforcement, shall in any manner affect the Pledge created hereunder over the Pledged Portfolio, as it then shall be (and in particular those PECs which have not been subject to enforcement). The Pledge shall continue to remain in full and valid existence until enforcement, discharge or termination hereof, as the case may be.
