(b)

The Seller intends, in his function as shareholder of the Company, to reward certain employees of the Company with bonus payments in the total gross amount of EUR 170,000.00 (in words: one hundred seventy thousand Euros) (hereinafter referred to as "Bonus Payment Amount") prior to the Effective Date. For this purpose, the Seller intends to instruct the Company prior to the Effective Date to pay on his behalf and on his account bonus payments to certain employees to be nominated by the Seller by withdrawing the Bonus Payment Amount from his Seller's Loan and Private Accounts.

6.3	Covenant not to Compete

(a)

For the Seller, the statutory prohibition of competition pursuant to Section 112 subsection 1 of the German Commercial Code (Handelsgesetzbuch (HGB)) shall apply correspondingly, with the addition that the Seller may not act either independently or dependently or in an advisory capacity, not even occasionally or indirectly, outside of the Company and/or its subsidiaries (Tochtergesellschaften) in their fields of activity as of the Signing Date, no matter whether or not these activities will be continued thereafter. Likewise, holding an equity interest in competitive businesses - except for participations in form of stock and convertibles - also as silent partner or subpartner shall be inadmissible. The territorial scope of application of this prohibition of competition comprises the European Union and EFTA.

(b)	The Seller is obligated to observe the non-competition clause pursuant to Clause 6.3(a) until September 30, 2013.

(c)

The Seller hereby irrevocably declares that he waives any compensation payments which may arise for his benefit due to his retirement as a limited partner from the Company or due to his retirement from the management of the Company or of a Company's affiliate. The Parties agree that the postcontractual prohibition of competition set forth in this Clause 6.3 shall be compensated by the Purchase Price to be paid under this Agreement.

(d)

Notwithstanding the generality of Clause 6.3(a), the Seller shall be entitled to be engaged in the business of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ GmbH & Co. KG as limited partner or its legal successor, as managing director of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Verwaltungs-GmbH (its general partner) or its legal successor and representative of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ GmbH & Co. KG or its legal successor, provided however, neither the Seller nor ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Verwaltungs-GmbH nor ▇▇▇▇▇▇ GmbH & Co. KG nor their respective legal successors nor an affiliate of these companies compete with the Company and/or its subsidiaries in their fields of activity as of the Signing Date in terms of Clauses 6.3(a) and 6.3(b). For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree that the engagement of the Seller in the following businesses shall not be deemed a competitive business of the Company and/or its subsidiaries in terms of Clauses 6.3(a) and 6.3(b): the production and processing of tools or components with free-form surfaces, their distribution and marketing, separately or together with shaped or grained foils as well as all other steps required for their manufacture or sale.

7.	GUARANTOR'S GUARANTEE
