6.4		The Collateral Agent will notify the Pledgor five business days prior to the enforcement of the Pledges (or any of them) according to Clause 6.

7.1		Proceeds of an enforcement of the Pledges shall only be applied towards satisfaction of the Obligations in relation to obligations of any Grantor (other than obligations under the Credit Documents of (i) the Pledgor (v) incurred as Borrower under the Credit Agreement, (w) incurred as borrower under a Local Facility Agreement, (x) incurred as a party to and beneficiary under any hedging agreement entered into with an Hedge Counterparty, (y) owed as cash management obligations to a Cash Management Bank for Cash Management Services, provided the Pledgor is a beneficiary of the Cash Management Services causing such cash management obligations or (z) to the extent certain proceeds of the Senior Secured Notes Indenture have been made available to the Pledgor, up to such proceeds and (ii) a Pledgor’s Subsidiary (v) incurred as Borrower under the Credit Agreement, (w) incurred as borrower under a Local Facility Agreement, (x) incurred as a party to and beneficiary under any hedging agreement entered into with an Hedge Counterparty (y) owed as cash management obligations to a Cash Management Bank for Cash Management Services, provided the Pledgor’s Subsidiary is a beneficiary of the Cash Management Services causing such cash management obligations or (z) to the extent certain proceeds of the Senior Secured Notes Indenture have been made available to the Pledgor’s Subsidiary, up to such proceeds) to the extent application of the proceeds of an enforcement of the Pledges towards such obligations does not constitute a repayment of capital (Einlagerueckgewaehr), a violation of the legally protected reserves (gesetzlich geschuetzte Reserven) or a payment of a (constructive) dividend prohibited by the Swiss Federal Code of Obligations by the Pledgor and in the maximum amount of the Pledgor’s profits available for the distribution of dividends at the point in time the Pledges are enforced (being the balance sheet profits and any free reserves made for this purpose, in each case in accordance with the relevant Swiss law) (the “Available Enforcement Proceeds”). Any proceeds of an enforcement in excess of the Available Enforcement Proceeds as well as the Tax Payment Amount (as defined below) which shall be deducted from the Available Enforcement Proceeds shall be returned to the Pledgor;
7.2		for such application of the Available Enforcement Proceeds towards satisfaction of the Obligations the Pledgor shall procure to pass a shareholders’ resolutions for the distribution of dividends in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Swiss Federal Code of Obligations being in force at that time (currently the profits available

- 13 -

		for the distribution of dividends as described above must be determined based on an audited balance sheet and such shareholders’ resolution must be based on the report from the Pledgor’s auditors approving the proposed distribution of dividends); and
7.3		deduct from the Available Enforcement Proceeds Swiss Anticipatory Tax (withholding tax) at the rate of 35% (or such other rate as in force from time to time) and subject to any applicable double taxation treaty and/or agreements entered into with the Swiss Federal Tax administration (the “Tax Payment Amount”):

	(a)		pay the Tax Payment Amount to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration; and
	(b)		give evidence to the respective beneficiary or beneficiaries (as the same may be) of such deduction of the Tax Payment Amount in accordance with Clause 2.20 (Taxes) of the Credit Agreement and Clause 4.15 (Witholding Taxes) of the Senior Secured Note Indenture.

		But if such a deduction is made, the Pledgor shall not be obliged to gross-up pursuant to Clause 2.20 (Taxes) of the Credit Agreement or Clause 4.15 (Witholding taxes) of the Senior Secured Notes Indenture to the extent that such gross-up would result in the aggregate of the amounts of the proceeds of an enforcement of the Pledges applied by the beneficiary or beneficiaries (as the same may be) towards satisfaction of the Obligations and the Tax Payment Amount paid to the Swiss Federal Tax administration exceeding the maximum amount of its profits available for the distribution of dividends.
8.		UNDERTAKINGS OF THE PLEDGOR
		Unless otherwise permitted by the Principal Finance Documents, during the term of this Agreement, the Pledgor undertakes to each of the Pledgees:
8.1		subject to Clause 4.3 to use all reasonable efforts to procure that each Account Bank releases any existing lien, including without limitation any pledge existing by operation of its general business conditions (Allgemeine Geschäftsbedingungen), and waives any right of set-off and right of retention in respect of the Accounts by countersigning and returning an acknowledgement of notice of pledge substantially in the form set out in Schedule 3 (Form of Notice of Pledge) to the Pledgor and the Collateral Agent.
8.2		to instruct each Account Bank to provide the Collateral Agent following receipt by the relevant Account Bank of a notice pursuant to Clause 5 with all information requested by it in respect of the Accounts and to that extent to release each Account Bank from its obligation to maintain confidentiality (Bankgeheimnis) by delivering a notice of pledge to the respective Account Bank in accordance with the requirements set out in Clause 4.1 or, in the case of any future Account, Clause 8.3. The Pledgor undertakes not to revoke such instruction during the term of this Agreement, other than in respect

- 14 -

		of an Account which is closed or disposed of in accordance with the terms of the Credit Documents;
8.3		to notify the Collateral Agent (for and on behalf of the Pledgees) without undue delay substantially in the form set out in Schedule 4 (Form of Notification of future Accounts) of each new bank account opened by the Pledgor with a credit institution in the Federal Republic of Germany in accordance with Clause 4 above. For the avoidance of doubt, the Pledgor is aware that any new bank account opened within the Federal Republic of Germany will become an Account in the meaning of this Agreement upon notice to the Account Bank and will be subject to the Pledge and the obligations assumed by the Pledgor hereunder without any further agreement;
8.4		to close any of the Accounts only upon giving 5 business days prior notice to the Collateral Agent and provided that the Pledgees (acting through the Collateral Agent) have not given a notice pursuant to Clause 5;
8.5		to deliver to the Collateral Agent, within three months after the end of each calendar year ending after January 2010, and at any time upon reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, up-to date account statement sheets (Kontoauszüge) showing the balance on each of the Accounts, provided that the Collateral Agent shall not request such information more than one additional time in any one year prior to the occurrence of an Enforcement Event and while it is continuing;
8.6		with regard to any account books (Sparbücher) and any other documents which are necessary to dispose over (verfügen) any of the Accounts, the Pledgor undertakes to deliver the originals of such documents to the Collateral Agent without undue delay if the Pledgees (acting through the Collateral Agent) have given a notice pursuant to Clause 5 and to deliver to the Collateral Agent upon its reasonable request following such event without undue delay any documents or other information concerning the Accounts, in particular (but not limited to) the account opening documents and any agreements between the Account Bank and the Pledgor in relation to the Accounts;
8.7		not to grant to any third party any rights in respect of the Accounts (keine Und-Konten oder Oder-Konten oder sonstige Rechte Dritter) (other than those arising under the relevant Account Bank’s general business conditions (Allgemeine Geschäftsbedingungen)) without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld);
8.8		to inform the Collateral Agent without undue delay of any attachment (Pfändung) and any third parties bringing claims in respect of any of the Accounts, such notice to be accompanied by any documents the Pledgees (or any of them) might need to defend themselves against any claim by a third party. In the case of any attachment (Pfändung) in respect of any of the Accounts, the Pledgor undertakes to forward to the Collateral Agent without undue delay a copy of the attachment order (Pfändungsbeschluss), any

- 15 -

		transfer order (Überweisungsbeschluss) and all other documents necessary for a defence against the attachment. The Pledgor shall inform the attaching creditor of the Pledges without undue delay;
8.9		except as otherwise agreed pursuant to the Principal Finance Documents, insofar as additional declarations or actions are necessary for the creation of the Pledges (or any of them), the Pledgor shall, at the Collateral Agent’s reasonable request, make such declarations and undertake such actions at the Pledgor’s costs and expenses; and
8.10		except as otherwise agreed pursuant to the Principal Finance Documents, to confirm or re-execute, upon reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, on the same terms as contained herein, the Pledges created hereunder in order to ensure that any Future Pledgee shall receive the benefit of such Pledges.
9.		DELEGATION
		The Collateral Agent shall have full power to delegate (either generally or specifically) the powers, authorities and discretions conferred on it by this Agreement on such terms and conditions as it shall see fit. The Collateral Agent shall only remain liable for diligently selecting and providing initial instructions to such delegate.
10.		INDEMNITY
		To the extent set out in the First Lien Intercreditor Credit 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, damages, expenses, demands, taxes, losses and costs which it may sustain as a consequence of any breach by the Pledgor of the provisions of this Agreement, the exercise or purported exercise of any of the rights and powers conferred on them by this Agreement or otherwise relating to the Pledges.
11.		NO LIABILITY
		Except to the extent provided in the Principal Finance Documents, none of the Collateral Agent, its nominee(s) or agent(s) or delegate(s) shall be liable by reason of (a) taking any action permitted by this Agreement or (b) any neglect or default in connection with the assets and rights subject to the security interest created hereunder, save in respect of any loss or damage which is suffered as a result of wilful misconduct (Vorsatz) or gross negligence (xxxxx Fahrlässigkeit) by the Collateral Agent, its nominee(s) or agent(s) or delegate(s), or (c) the enforcement or realisation of all or any part of the security interest created hereunder.

- 16 -

12.		DURATION AND INDEPENDENCE
12.1		This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until complete satisfaction of the Obligations. The Pledges shall not cease to exist, if the Grantors under the Credit Documents have only temporarily discharged the Obligations.
12.2		This Agreement shall create a continuing security and no change, amendment, or supplement whatsoever in the Credit Documents or in any document or agreement related to any of the Credit Documents shall affect the validity or the scope of this Agreement nor the obligations which are imposed on the Pledgor pursuant to it.
12.3		This Agreement is independent from any other security or guarantee which may have been or will be given to the Pledgees or the Collateral Agent. None of such other security shall prejudice, or shall be prejudiced by, or shall be merged in any way with this Agreement.
12.4		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 Obligations to, or by, any third party.
13.		RELEASE (PFANDFREIGABE)
13.1		Upon complete and irrevocable satisfaction of the Obligations, the Collateral Agent (as instructed in accordance with the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement) and the other Pledgees will as soon as reasonably practical declare in writing the release of the Pledges (Pfandfreigabe) to the Pledgor as a matter of record. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties are aware that upon full and complete satisfaction of the Obligations the Pledges, due to their accessory nature (Akzessorietät), cease to exist by operation of German mandatory law.
13.2		At any time when the total value of the aggregate security granted by the Pledgor and any of the other Grantors to secure the Obligations (the “Security”), which can be expected to be realised in the event of an enforcement of the Security (realisierbarer Xxxx), exceeds 110% of the Obligations (the “Limit”) not only temporarily, the Pledgees shall on demand of the Pledgor release such part of the Security (Sicherheitenfreigabe) as the Collateral Agent (as instructed in accordance with the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement) and the other Pledgees may in their reasonable discretion determine so as to reduce the realisable value of the Security to the Limit.
13.3		The Collateral Agent (as instructed in accordance with the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement) and the other Pledgees, acting through the Collateral Agent, will as soon as reasonably practicable declare in writing the release of the Pledges (Pfandfreigabe) to the Pledgor in accordance with, and to the extent required by, the Intercreditor Arrangements.

- 17 -

14.		PARTIAL INVALIDITY; WAIVER
14.1		If at any time, any one or more of the provisions hereof is or becomes invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under the law of any jurisdiction, such provision shall as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent necessary without affecting or impairing the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof or of such provisions in any other jurisdiction. The invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision shall be deemed to be replaced with such valid, legal or enforceable provision which comes as close as possible to the original intent of the parties and the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision. Should a gap (Regelungslücke) become evident in this Agreement, such gap shall, without affecting or impairing the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof, be deemed to be filled in with such provision which comes as close as possible to the original intent of the parties.
14.2		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.

		Changes and amendments to this Agreement including this Clause 15 shall be made in writing.
