officer, employee or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any (A) Free Writing Offering Document, the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Offering Memorandum or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or (B) in any materials or information provided to investors by, or with the approval of, any Company or any Guarantor in connection with the marketing of the offering of the Notes, including any road show or investor presentations made to investors by either or both Companies (whether in person or electronically) (“Marketing Materials”), or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in any of the foregoing any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and shall reimburse each Initial Purchaser and each such director, officer, employee or controlling person promptly upon demand for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by that Initial Purchaser, director, officer, employee or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Companies and the Guarantors shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in any Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Disclosure Package or Offering Memorandum, or in any such amendment or supplement thereto, or in any Marketing Materials or in any Free Writing Offering Document, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Companies by or on behalf of the Initial Purchasers specifically for inclusion therein, which information consists solely of the information specified in Section 9(e). The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability that the Companies or the Guarantors may otherwise have to any Initial Purchaser or to any affiliate, director, officer, employee or controlling person of that Initial Purchaser.

(b) Each Initial Purchaser, severally and not jointly, hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Company, each Guarantor, their respective directors, officers and employees and each person, if any, who controls any Company or any Guarantor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof, to which any Company, any Guarantor or any such director, officer, employee or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Free Writing Offering Document, Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Offering Memorandum or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any Marketing Materials, or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in any of the foregoing any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Companies by or on behalf of the Initial Purchasers specifically for inclusion therein, which information is limited to the information set forth in Section 9(e). The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability that any Initial Purchaser may otherwise have to any Company, any Guarantor or any such director, officer, employee or controlling person.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 9 of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, the indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 9 or otherwise, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or the commencement of that action; provided, however, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under this Section 9 except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by such failure. If any such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such claim or action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party under this Section 9 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that the Initial Purchasers shall have the right to employ counsel to represent jointly the Initial Purchasers and their respective directors, officers, employees and controlling persons who may be subject to liability arising out of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought by the Initial Purchasers against any Company or any Guarantor under this Section 9, if (i) the Companies, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers shall have so mutually agreed in writing; (ii) the Companies and the Guarantors have failed within 30 days to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Initial Purchasers; (iii) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Initial Purchasers or their respective directors, officers, employees or controlling persons, on the one hand, and the Companies and the Guarantors, on the other hand, and the Initial Purchasers and their respective directors, officers, employees and controlling persons shall have reasonably concluded, based on the advice of counsel, that there are legal defenses available to them that are different from or in addition to those available to the Companies and the Guarantors; or (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Initial Purchasers or their respective directors, officers, employees or controlling persons, on the one hand, and the Companies and the Guarantors, on the other hand, and representation of both sets of parties by the same counsel would present a conflict due to actual or potential differing interests between them, and in any such event the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be paid by the Companies and the Guarantors. No indemnifying party shall (x) without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and does not include a statement as to, or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party, or (y) be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), but if settled with the consent of the indemnifying party or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 9 shall for any reason be unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 9(a) or 9(b) in respect of any loss, claim, damage or liability, or any action in respect thereof, referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, (i) in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Companies and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other, from the offering of the Notes, or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Companies and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other, with respect to the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Companies and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other, with respect to such offering shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Notes purchased under this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Companies and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Initial Purchasers with respect to the Notes purchased under this Agreement, on the other hand, bear to the total gross proceeds from the offering of the Notes under this Agreement as set forth on the cover page of the Offering Memorandum. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Companies, the Guarantors, or the Initial Purchasers, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. For purposes of the preceding two sentences, the net proceeds deemed to be received by the Companies shall be deemed to be also for the benefit of the Guarantors, and information supplied by the Companies shall also be deemed to have been supplied by the Guarantors. The Companies, the Guarantors, and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 9(d) were to be determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Initial Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 9(d) shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this Section 9(d), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9(d), no Initial Purchaser shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds from the sale to Eligible Purchasers of the Notes initially purchased by it exceeds the amount of any damages that such Initial Purchaser has otherwise paid or become liable to pay by reason of any untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Initial Purchasers’ obligations to contribute as provided in this Section 9(d) are several in proportion to their respective purchase obligations and not joint.

(e) The Initial Purchasers severally confirm and the Companies and the Guarantors acknowledge and agree that the statements with respect to the offering of the Notes

by the Initial Purchasers set forth in the third paragraph and the first through seventh sentences of the sixth paragraph of the section entitled “Plan of Distribution” in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum, and, in respect of the Pricing Disclosure Package only, the first sentence of the thirteenth paragraph and the first and second sentence of the fourteenth paragraph of such section, and, in respect of the Offering Memorandum only, the first sentence of the twelfth paragraph and the first and second sentence of the thirteenth paragraph of such section, constitute the only information concerning such Initial Purchasers furnished in writing to any Company or any Guarantor by or on behalf of the Initial Purchasers specifically for inclusion in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum or in any amendment or supplement thereto.

(a) If, on the Closing Date, any Initial Purchaser shall fail or refuse to purchase the Notes that it has agreed to purchase under this Agreement, and the aggregate principal amount of Notes which such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed or refused to purchase is not more than one tenth of the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be purchased on such date, the other Initial Purchasers shall be obligated severally in the proportions that the principal amount of Notes set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule I bears to the aggregate principal amount of Notes set forth opposite the names of all such non defaulting Initial Purchasers, or in such other proportions as you may specify, to purchase the Notes which such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed or refused to purchase on such date; provided that the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers shall not be obligated to purchase more than one ninth of the aggregate principal amount of Notes that it agreed to purchase on the Closing Date pursuant to the terms of Section 3. If, on the Closing Date any Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers shall fail or refuse to purchase Notes which it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date and the aggregate principal amount of Notes with respect to which such default occurs is more than one tenth of the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be purchased on such date, the remaining non-defaulting Initial Purchasers may in their discretion arrange for the purchase of such Notes by the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers or other persons satisfactory to the Companies on the terms contained in this Agreement. In the event that within 36 hours, the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers notify the Companies that they have so arranged for the purchase of such Notes, either the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers or the Companies may postpone the Closing Date for up to seven full business days in order to effect any changes that in the opinion of counsel for the Companies or counsel for the Initial Purchasers may be necessary in the Pricing Disclosure Package, the Offering Memorandum or in any other document or arrangement, and the Companies agree to promptly prepare any amendment or supplement to the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Offering Memorandum that effects any such changes. As used in this Agreement, the term “Initial Purchaser” includes, for all purposes of this Agreement unless the context requires otherwise, any party not listed in Schedule I hereto that, pursuant to this Section 10, purchases Notes that a defaulting Initial Purchaser agreed but failed to purchase.

(b) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Notes of a defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers by the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers and the Companies as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of such Notes that remains unpurchased does not exceed one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of all the

Notes, then the Companies shall have the right to require each non-defaulting Initial Purchaser to purchase the principal amount of Notes that such Initial Purchaser agreed to purchase hereunder plus such Initial Purchaser’s pro rata share (based on the principal amount of Notes that such Initial Purchaser agreed to purchase hereunder) of the Notes of such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers for which such arrangements have not been made; provided that the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers shall not be obligated to purchase more than 110% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes that they agreed to purchase on the Closing Date pursuant to the terms of Section 3.

(c) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Notes of a defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers by the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers and the Companies as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of such Notes that remains unpurchased exceeds one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of all the Notes, then this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers. Any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10 shall be without liability on the part of the Companies or the Guarantors.

(d) Nothing contained herein shall relieve a defaulting Initial Purchaser of any liability it may have to the Companies, the Guarantors or any non-defaulting Initial Purchaser for damages caused by its default.

11. Termination. The obligations of the Initial Purchasers hereunder may be terminated by the Initial Purchasers by notice given to and received by the Companies prior to delivery of and payment for the Notes if, prior to that time, there shall have occurred any of the following: (i) trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange, the NASDAQ or the NYSE Amex Equities market, or trading in any securities of any Company on any exchange or in the over-the-counter market, shall have been suspended or materially limited, (ii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by U.S. federal or New York State authorities, (iii) there shall have been a declaration of a national emergency or war by the United States, or (iv) there shall have occurred such a material adverse change in general economic, political or financial conditions, including, without limitation, as a result of terrorist activities after the date hereof (or the effect of international conditions on the financial markets in the United States shall be such), as to make it, in the judgment of the Representative, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Notes being delivered on the Closing Date on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Offering Memorandum.

12. Reimbursement of Initial Purchasers’ Expenses. Whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated or this Agreement is terminated and the provisions of Section 7 herein notwithstanding, if (a) the Companies for any reason fail to tender the Notes for delivery to the Initial Purchasers, or (b) the Initial Purchasers shall decline to purchase the Notes for any reason permitted under this Agreement, the Companies and the Guarantors shall reimburse the Initial Purchasers for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel for the Initial Purchasers) incurred by the Initial Purchasers in connection with this Agreement and the proposed purchase of the Notes, and upon demand the Companies and the Guarantors shall pay the full amount thereof to the Initial Purchasers. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 11 by reason of the default of one or more Initial Purchasers, the Companies and the Guarantors shall not be obligated to reimburse any defaulting Initial Purchaser on account of those expenses.

13. Notices, etc. All statements, requests, notices and agreements hereunder shall be in writing, and:

(a) if to the Initial Purchasers, shall be delivered or sent by hand delivery, mail, telex, overnight courier or facsimile transmission to

(b) if to any Company or any Guarantor, shall be delivered or sent by mail, telex, overnight courier or facsimile transmission to:

provided, however, that any notice to an Initial Purchaser pursuant to Section 9(c) shall be delivered or sent by hand delivery, mail, telex or facsimile or electronic transmission to such Initial Purchaser at its address set forth in its acceptance telex to Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., which address will be supplied to any other party hereto by Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. upon request. Any such statements, requests, notices or agreements shall take effect at the time of receipt thereof. Each Company shall be entitled to act and rely upon any request, consent, notice or agreement given or made on behalf of the Initial Purchasers by Deutsche Bank Securities Inc.

14. Persons Entitled to Benefit of Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Initial Purchasers, the Companies, the Guarantors and their respective successors. This Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof are for the sole benefit of only those persons, except that the representations, warranties, indemnities and agreements of the Companies and the Guarantors contained in this Agreement shall also be deemed to be for the benefit of directors, officers and employees of the Initial Purchasers and each person or persons, if any, controlling any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any person, other than the persons referred to in this Section 14, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision contained herein.

15. Survival. The respective indemnities, rights of contribution, representations, warranties and agreements of the Companies, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers contained in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of them, respectively, pursuant to this Agreement, shall survive the delivery of and payment for the Notes and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of any of them or any person controlling any of them.

16. Definition of the Terms “Business Day”, “Affiliate”, and “Subsidiary”. For purposes of this Agreement, (a) “business day” means any day on which the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. is open for trading, and (b) “affiliate” and “subsidiary” have the meanings set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act.

17. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and to be performed within the State of New York.

18. Waiver of Jury Trial. Each Company and each of the Initial Purchasers hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

19. Consent to Jurisdiction. Any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or based upon this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (“Related Proceedings”) may be instituted in any New York Court, and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the New York Courts in any Related Proceeding (except for suits, actions, or proceedings instituted in regard to the enforcement of a judgment of any New York Court in a Related Proceeding (a “Related Judgment”), as to which such jurisdiction is non-exclusive). The parties irrevocably and unconditionally waive any objection to the laying of venue of any Related Proceeding in the New York Courts and irrevocably and unconditionally waive and agree not to plead or claim in any New York Court that any Related Proceeding brought in any New York Court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. To the extent that any party hereto has or hereafter may acquire any immunity (on the grounds of sovereignty or otherwise) from the jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process with respect to itself or its property, each such party irrevocably waives, to the full extent permitted by applicable law, such immunity in respect of any such suit, action or proceeding. Each Company, each Initial Guarantor and each Post-Closing Guarantor (as of the date such Post-Closing Guarantor becomes a party hereto pursuant

to a Purchase Agreement Joinder) hereby designates and appoints CT Corporation System, at 111 Eighth Avenue, 13th Floor, New York, NY 10011 (the “Process Agent”), as its authorized agent, upon whom process may be served in any such legal suit, action or proceeding, it being understood that the designation and appointment of CT Corporation System as such authorized agent shall become effective immediately without any further action on the part of any Company or any Guarantor. Such appointment shall be irrevocable to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to the appointment of a successor agent in the U.S. on terms substantially similar to those contained herein and reasonably satisfactory to the Initial Purchasers. If the Process Agent shall cease to act as agent for services of process, the Companies and the Guarantors shall appoint, without unreasonable delay, another such agent, and notify the Initial Purchasers of such appointment. Each Company, each Initial Guarantor and each Post-Closing Guarantor (as of the date such Post-Closing Guarantor becomes a party hereto pursuant to a Purchase Agreement Joinder) represents to the Initial Purchasers that it has notified the Process Agent of such designation and appointment and that the Process Agent has accepted the same in writing. Each Company further agrees that service of process upon the Process Agent and written notice of said service to such party shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon any Company or any Guarantor in any such legal suit, action or proceeding. Nothing herein shall affect the right of the Initial Purchasers or the person controlling the Initial Purchasers to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

20. Judgment Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder into any currency other than U.S. dollars, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be the noon buying rate in New York City for cable transfers in such foreign currency as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York for the business day preceding that on which the judgment becomes a final judgment.

21. Foreign Taxes. All payments made by any Company or any Guarantor under this Agreement, if any, will be made without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed or levied by or on behalf of Luxembourg or any jurisdiction of formation and domicile of any Guarantor or any political subdivision or any taxing authority thereof or therein unless any Company and any such Guarantor are or become required by law to withhold or deduct such taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges. In such event, the Companies and the Guarantors, severally and not jointly, will pay such additional amounts as will result, after such withholding or deduction, in the receipt by each Initial Purchaser and each person controlling any Initial Purchaser, as the case may be, of the amounts that would otherwise have been receivable in respect thereof, except to the extent such taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges are imposed or levied by reason of such Initial Purchaser’s or controlling person’s being connected with Luxembourg or such jurisdiction of formation and domicile of any such Guarantor other than by reason of its being an Initial Purchaser or a person controlling any Initial Purchaser under this Agreement.

22. No Fiduciary Duty. The Companies and the Guarantors acknowledge and agree that in connection with this offering, or any other services the Initial Purchasers may be deemed to be providing hereunder, notwithstanding any preexisting relationship, advisory or otherwise, between the parties or any oral representations or assurances previously or subsequently made by

the Initial Purchasers: (a) no fiduciary or agency relationship between any Company, any Guarantor and any other person, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other, exists; (b) the Initial Purchasers are not acting as advisors, expert or otherwise, to the Companies or the Guarantors, including, without limitation, with respect to the determination of the purchase price of the Notes, and such relationship between the Companies and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other, is entirely and solely commercial, based on arms-length negotiations; (c) any duties and obligations that the Initial Purchasers may have to the Companies and the Guarantors shall be limited to those duties and obligations specifically stated herein; (d) the Initial Purchasers and their respective affiliates may have interests that differ from those of the Companies and the Guarantors; and (e) the Companies and the Guarantors have consulted their own legal and financial advisors to the extent they deemed appropriate. The Companies and the Guarantors hereby waive any claims that the Companies and the Guarantors may have against the Initial Purchasers with respect to any breach of fiduciary duty in connection with the Notes.

(a) The restrictions in this Section 23 shall apply to any (i) covenant, (ii) indemnity, or (iii) other payment obligation under this Agreement (the “German Guaranty”) in each case granted by a Guarantor (a “German Guarantor”) incorporated under the laws of Germany as a limited liability company (“GmbH”) for liabilities of its direct or indirect shareholder(s) (upstream) or an entity affiliated with such shareholder (verbundenes Unternehmen) within the meaning of section 15 of the German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz) (cross-stream) (excluding, for clarification purposes any direct or indirect subsidiary of such Guarantor). For the avoidance of doubt, the restrictions in this Section 23 shall apply only when such German Guarantors become a party hereto pursuant to a Purchase Agreement Joinder.

(b) The restrictions in this Section 23 shall not apply in respect of a German Guaranty to the extent the German Guarantor secures any liabilities in connection with the Notes and amounts of the payment received by the Companies for the Notes are lent or otherwise passed on (directly or indirectly) to the relevant German Guarantor or its subsidiaries (in particular, amounts of payments received by the Companies for the Notes are used by the Companies to repay indebtedness of the relevant German Guarantor or its subsidiaries under the senior secured term loan) and such amount is not is not repaid by the relevant German Guarantor (or its subsidiaries) for as long as such amounts on-lent or otherwise (directly or indirectly) passed on as set out above have not been the subject of an adjustment in the calculation of the relevant German Guarantor’s Net Assets in accordance with Section 23(d) below.

i. The parties to this Agreement agree that if payment under the German Guaranty would (A) cause the amount of a German Guarantor’s net assets, as calculated pursuant to Section 23(d) below, to fall below the amount of its registered share capital (Stammkapital) or increase an existing shortage of its registered share capital in each case in violation of section 30 of the German Limited Liability Company Act (“GmbHG”) (such event is hereinafter referred to

as a “Capital Impairment”) or (B) deprive the German Guarantor of the liquidity necessary to fulfill its financial liabilities to its creditors a (“Liquidity Impairment”), then the Initial Purchasers shall, subject to Section 23(c)(i) and (ii), demand payment under the German Guaranty from such German Guarantor only to the extent such Capital Impairment or Liquidity Impairment would not occur.

ii. The restrictions set out in Section 23(c) in relation to a Liquidity Impairment shall cease to apply, if, at the time a demand for payment under the German Guaranty is made against a German Guarantor, such German Guarantor is unable to pay its debts as they fall due (zahlungsunfähig) or (ii) insolvency proceedings (Insolvenzverfahren) over any of such German Guarantor’s assets have been opened.

iii. If the relevant German Guarantor does not notify the Initial Purchasers in writing (the “Management Notification”) within fifteen (15) Business Days after the Initial Purchasers notified such German Guarantor in writing of its intention to demand payment under the German Guaranty that a Capital Impairment or Liquidity Impairment would occur (setting out in reasonable detail to what extent a Capital Impairment or Liquidity Impairment would occur in the form of a management balance sheet (including explanations with regard to the Liquidity Impairment) and providing prima facie evidence that a realization or other measures undertaken in accordance with the mitigation provisions set out in Section 23(e) would not prevent such Capital Impairment and/or Liquidity Impairment), then the restrictions set forth in clause (i) of this Section 23(c) shall not apply.

iv. If the relevant German Guarantor does not provide an Auditors’ Determination (as defined in Section 23(f)) within thirty (30) Business Days from the date on which the Initial Purchasers received the Management Notification, then the restrictions set out in clause (i) of this Section 23(c) shall not apply and the Initial Purchasers shall not be obliged to assign or make available to the German Guarantor any net proceeds realized.

(d) Net Assets. The calculation of net assets (the “Net Assets”) shall only take into account the sum of the values of the assets of the relevant German Guarantor determined in accordance with applicable law and court decisions and, if there is no positive going concern (positive Fortführungsprognose) based on the lower of book value (Buchwert) and liquidation value (Liquidationswert) (consisting of all assets which correspond to those items listed in section 266 subsection (2) A, B and C of the German Commercial Code (“HGB”)) less the relevant German Guarantor’s liabilities (consisting of all liabilities and liability reserves which correspond to those items listed in accordance with section 266 subsection (3) B, C and D of the HGB). For the purposes of calculating Net Assets, the following balance sheet items shall be adjusted as follows:

i. the amount of any increase in the registered share capital of the relevant German Guarantor which became effective after the date hereof and

which was resolved and implemented without the prior written consent of the Initial Purchasers or as permitted under the restrictive covenants in the Indenture shall be deducted from the amount of the registered share capital of the relevant German Guarantor;

ii. any payments received by the German Guarantor from the Companies in connection with the Notes which have been or are lent or otherwise passed on to the relevant German Guarantor or to any subsidiary of such German Guarantor and which have not yet been repaid at the time when payment under the German Guaranty is demanded, shall be disregarded for as long as no demand has been made in relation to such amounts lent or otherwise (directly or indirectly) passed on as set out above under the Guarantee by the relevant German Guarantor in accordance with Section 23(b) above; and

iii. loans or other contractual liabilities or indebtedness incurred by the relevant German Guarantor in gross-negligent or willful breach of the provisions of this Agreement and the Indenture shall not be taken into account as liabilities.

i. The relevant German Guarantor shall realize, to the extent legally permitted and commercially justifiable in a situation where it does not have sufficient Net Assets to maintain its registered share capital, all of its assets that are shown in the balance sheet with a book value (Buchwert) that is significantly lower than the market value of the assets but only if the relevant asset is not necessary for the German Guarantor’s business (betriebsnotwendig).

ii. The limitations on demanding payment under this German Guaranty set out in this Section 23(e) shall not apply if and to the extent that the relevant German Guarantor is legally permitted to dissolve hidden reserves or setting-off claims to avoid demanding payment under the German Guaranty causing a Capital Impairment of the relevant German Guarantor provided that it is commercially justifiable to take such measures.

i. If the relevant German Guarantor claims that a Capital Impairment or Liquidity Impairment would occur on payment under this German Guaranty and the Initial Purchasers have requested an Auditors’ Determination (as defined below), the German Guarantor shall (at its own cost and expense) arrange for the preparation of a balance sheet by a firm of recognized auditors (the “Auditors”) in order to have such Auditors determine whether (and if so, to what extent) any payment under this German Guaranty would cause a Capital Impairment or Liquidity Impairment (the “Auditors’ Determination”).

ii. The Auditors’ Determination shall be prepared, taking into account the adjustments set out in Section 23(d) above, by applying the generally accepted accounting principles applicable from time to time in Germany (Grundsätze

ordnungsmäßiger Buchführung) based on the same principles and evaluation methods as constantly applied by the relevant German Guarantor in the preparation of its financial statements, in particular in the preparation of its most recent annual balance sheet, and taking into consideration applicable court rulings of German courts. Subject to Section 23(h) below, such Auditors’ Determination shall be binding on the relevant German Guarantor and the Initial Purchasers.

iii. Even if the relevant German Guarantor arranges for the preparation of an Auditors’ Determination, the relevant German Guarantor’s obligations under the mitigation provisions set out in Section 23(e) above shall continue to exist.

(g) Improvement of Financial Condition. If, after they have been provided with an Auditors’ Determination which prevented them from demanding any or only partial payment under this German Guaranty, the Initial Purchasers ascertain in good faith that the financial condition of the relevant German Guarantor as set out in the Auditors’ Determination has substantially improved (in particular, if the relevant German Guarantor has taken any action in accordance with the mitigation provisions set out in Section 23(e)), the Initial Purchasers may, at the relevant German Guarantor’s cost and expense, arrange for the preparation of an updated balance sheet of the relevant German Guarantor by applying the same principles (unless a change of law or court practice requires otherwise) that were used for the preparation of the Auditors’ Determination by the Auditors who prepared the Auditors’ Determination pursuant to clause (i) of Section 23(f) above in order for such Auditors to determine whether (and, if so, to what extent) the Capital Impairment or Liquidity Impairment has been cured as a result of the improvement of the financial condition of the relevant German Guarantor. The Initial Purchasers may demand payment under this German Guaranty to the extent that the Auditors determine that the Capital Impairment or Liquidity Impairment has been cured.

(h) No Waiver. Nothing in this Section 23 shall limit the enforceability, legality or validity of this German Guaranty nor shall it prevent the Initial Purchasers from claiming in court that the provision of this German Guaranty by and/or demanding payment under this German Guaranty against the relevant German Guarantor does not fall within the scope of section 30 of the GmbHG. The Initial Purchasers’ rights to any remedies it may have against the relevant German Guarantor shall not be limited if it is ascertained by a final court decision that section 30 of the GmbHG did not apply. The agreement of the Administrative Agent to abstain from demanding any or part of the payment under this German Guaranty in accordance with the provisions above shall not constitute a waiver (Verzicht) of any right granted under this Agreement to the Initial Purchasers.

(i) GmbH & Co KG. The aforementioned provisions shall apply to a limited partnership with a limited liability company as its general partner (GmbH & Co. KG) mutatis mutandis provided that any Capital Impairment and/or Liquidity Impairment shall be determined in relation to the general partner.

(j) Construction. Sub-clauses (a) to (i) above shall be construed in light of the interpretation such provisions would be given were it to be governed by German law.

24. Patriot Act. In accordance with the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), the Initial Purchasers are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies their respective clients, including the Companies, which information may include the name and address of their respective clients, as well as other information that will allow the Initial Purchasers to properly identify their respective clients.

25. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts and, if executed in more than one counterpart, the executed counterparts shall each be deemed to be an original but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

26. Headings. The headings herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be part of, or to affect the meaning or interpretation of, this Agreement.

If the foregoing correctly sets forth the agreement among the Companies, the Guarantors, and the Initial Purchasers, please indicate your acceptance in the space provided for that purpose below.
