Together, the Present Receivables and the Future Receivables are hereinafter referred to as the “Receivables”.

3

1.5 Ancillary rights

The assignment of Receivables extends to ancillary rights and claims to and substitutes (surrogate) for any of the Receivables, as well as any right deriving from the underlying contractual or other relationship on which such Receivable is based including without limitation to unilateral rights (Gestaltungsrechte) of the Assignor. To the extent that any such ancillary rights are not assignable as a matter of law, the Assignor hereby grants power of attorney to the Security Agent to exercise these rights upon the occurrence of an Enforcement Event (as defined in Clause 7.1 (Enforcement Event) below).

1.6 Secured Claims

1.6.1 The assignment of Receivables under this Agreement and every other transferred right under this Agreement shall secure all present and future claims (including conditional (bedingt) and time-limited (befristet) claims) of the Finance Parties against any Obligor arising:

(i) under the Secured Documents;

(ii) under the Secured Documents each as increased (including by way of increase of the margin or existing facilities or by including new facilities (including by way of the Accordion Increase Option)) or extended (in particular by way of extension of the maturity) from time to time; and

5

5.2 not to take, or participate in, any action or omit to take any action which impairs, or which would for any other reason be inconsistent with, the security interest of the Security Agent or the security purpose as described in Clause 1.6 (Secured Claims) or which would have an adverse effect on the rights of the Security Agent under this Agreement;

7.8 Limitation on enforcement

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Clause 7(Enforcement), the liability of a Assignor incorporated or established in Germany as a limited liability company (GmbH) or a limited partnership with a limited liability company as its general partner (GmbH & Co. KG) (a “German Assignor”) in its capacity as Assignor shall be subject to the following:

In this Clause 7.8 (Limitation on enforcement)

“Net Assets” means an amount equal to the sum of the amounts of a German Assignor’s (or, in case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner’s) assets (consisting of all assets which correspond to the items set forth in section 266 para 2 A, B, C, D and E of the German Commercial Code (Handelsgesetzbuch – HGB)) less the aggregate amount of such German Assignor’s (or, in case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner’s) liabilities (consisting of all liabilities and liability reserves which correspond to the items set forth in section 266 para 3 B, C, D and E HGB), save that any obligations (Verbindlichkeiten) of the German Assignor (and, in case of a GmbH & Co. KG, of its general partner)

8

(i) owing to any member of the Group or any other affiliated company which are subordinated by law or by contract to any Financial Indebtedness outstanding under the Secured Documents (including, for the avoidance of doubt, obligations that would in an insolvency be subordinated pursuant to section 39 para. 1 no 5 or section 39 para 2 of the German Insolvency Code (Insolvenzordnung)) and including obligations under guarantees for obligations which are so subordinated; and/or

(ii) incurred in violation of any of the provisions of the Secured Documents,

shall be disregarded.

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 a German Assignor (or, in case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner) in the preparation of its most recent annual balance sheet (Jahresbilanz).

“Protected Capital” means in relation to a German Assignor the aggregate amount of:

(i) its (or, where the German Assignor 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 (x) not be taken into account unless such increase has been effected with the prior written consent of the Security Agent (even if such increase is permitted under any of the Secured Documents) and (y) otherwise be taken into account only to the extent it is fully paid up; and

(ii) its (or when applicable where the relevant German Assignor is a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner’s) amount of profits (Gewinne) or reserves (Rücklagen) which are not available for distribution to its shareholder(s) in accordance with section 268 para 8 HGB.

“Up-stream and/or Cross-stream Security” means any security by way of assignment of Receivables if and to the extent the assignment secures the obligations of an Obligor which is a shareholder of a German Assignor (and/or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, of its general partner) or an affiliated company (verbundenes Unternehmen) of such shareholder within the meaning of section 16, 17 or 18 of the German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz) (other than the German Assignor and its Subsidiaries and, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, the general partner and its Subsidiaries), provided that it shall not constitute an Up-stream or Cross-stream Security if and to the extent the assignment of Receivables secure amounts outstanding under any Secured Document in relation to any funds or financial accommodation made available under such Secured Document to or at the request of any Borrower and on-lent or otherwise passed on to, or issued for the benefit of, a German Assignor or any of its Subsidiaries (and, where a German Assignor is a GmbH & Co. KG, to, or for the benefit of, its general partner or any of its Subsidiaries) and outstanding from time to time, provided that the Security Agent has waived with binding effect on the Finance Parties any provision of any Secured Document restricting the right to set-off (aufrechnen; verrechnen) any recourse, indemnification, sharing of losses or other compensation claim against such lending member of the Group which the German Assignor may have with its loan obligation towards such lending member of the Group, in order and to the extent required to allow for the settlement or discharge of such loan obligation arising out of the on-lending vis-à-vis such lending member of the Group.

9

7.8.1 This Clause 7.8 (Limitation on enforcement) applies if and to the extent the assignment of Receivables is made by a German Assignor and is an Up-stream and/or Cross-stream Security.

7.8.2 The Security Agent agrees that the enforcement of the assignment of Receivables made by a German Assignor shall be limited if and to the extent that:

(i) the assignment constitutes an Up-stream and/or Cross-stream Security; and

(ii) the enforcement of the assignment would otherwise

(a) have the effect of reducing the relevant German Assignor’s (or, where the German Assignor 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

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

provided that the relevant German Assignor has complied with its obligation to deliver the Management Determination (as defined below) and the Auditor’s Determination (as defined below), in each case together with an up-to-date balance sheet, in accordance with the requirements set out in paragraphs 7.8.3 and 7.8.4 below.

7.8.3 Within 10 Business Days after the notification of enforcement pursuant to Clause 7.2.2 (Notofication of enforcement) above by the Security Agent, the relevant German Assignor shall provide a certificate signed by its managing director(s) (Geschäftsführer) confirming in writing (x) if and to what extent the enforcement is an Up-stream and/or Cross-stream Security and (y) whether an enforcement of the assignment would have the effects referred to in paragraph 7.8.2(ii) above (the “Management Determination”). Such confirmation shall comprise an up-to-date balance sheet of the German Assignor (and, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner) and a detailed calculation, based on the provisions of this Agreement, of the amount of the Net Assets and the Protected Capital of the German Assignor (or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner). The enforcement of the assignment shall be unlimited up to an amount which, pursuant to the Management Determination, would not cause the effects set out in paragraph 7.8.2(ii) above (irrespective of whether or not the Security Agent agrees with the Management Determination).

7.8.4 If the Security Agent (acting on the instructions of the Majority Lenders) disagrees with the Management Determination, it may within twenty (20) Business Days of its receipt request the relevant German Assignor to deliver, at the German Assignor’s own cost and expense, within 25 Business Days of such request an up-to-date balance sheet of the German Assignor (and, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, of

10

its general partner), drawn-up by a firm of auditors appointed by the German Assignor in consultation with the Security Agent, together with (x) a detailed calculation, based on the provisions of this Agreement, of the amount of the Net Assets and the Protected Capital of the German Assignor (or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner) (the “Auditor’s Determination”), (y) a confirmation if and to what extent the enforcement of the assignment is an Up-stream and/or Cross-stream Security and (z) whether an enforcement of the assignment would had the effects referred to in paragraph 7.8.2(ii) above. The enforcement of the assignment shall be unlimited up to an amount which, pursuant to the Auditor’s Determination, would not cause the effects set out in paragraph 7.8.2(ii) above.

7.8.5 If the amount being enforceable pursuant to the Auditor’s Determination is lower than the amount being enforceable pursuant to the Management Determination and, if and to the extent that the assignment of Receivables has been enforced up to the amount set out in the Management Determination, the Security Agent shall upon written demand by the German Assignor to the Security Agent repay any proceeds from the enforcement of the assignment already received by the Security Agent to the German Assignor in an amount equal to the difference between the amount enforceable pursuant to the Management Determination and the amount enforceable pursuant to the Auditor’s Determination, provided that such demand for repayment is made by the relevant German Assignor to the Security Agent within one month after the Auditor’s Determination has been delivered as required by Clause 7.8.3 above.

7.8.6 The limitation in Clause 7.8.2 above shall not apply if:

(i) a domination and/or profit and loss pooling agreement (Beherrschungs-und/oder Gewinnabführungsvertrag) is in force between the German Assignor (with the German Assignor as dominated entity) and the relevant primary obligor or a holding company of the relevant primary obligor (or an uninterrupted chain of domination agreements in force between the German Assignor (with the German Assignor as dominated entity) and the relevant primary obligor or a holding company of the relevant primary obligor) whose obligations and liabilities are secured, except where the existence of such domination and/or profit and loss agreement does not prevent the assertion or enforcement of the assignment of Receivables from having the effects referred to in paragraph 7.8.2(ii) above; or

(ii) if and to the extent that the relevant German Assignor has a fully recoverable recourse claim (Gegenleistungs- und Rückgewähranspruch).

7.8.7 No reduction of the amount enforceable pursuant to this Clause 7.8 (Limitation on enforcement) will prejudice the right of the Security Agent to continue to enforce the assignment of Receivables (subject always to the operation of the limitations set out above at the time of such enforcement) until full satisfaction of the claims secured.

8 Release of security interest upon satisfaction of Secured Claims

Upon complete and irrevocable satisfaction of the Secured Claims, the Security Agent will (at the Assignor’s costs) reassign the Receivables to the Assignor and will surrender the excess proceeds (Übererlöse), if any, resulting from any realisation of Receivables or part thereof to the Assignor. The Security Agent will, however, transfer Receivables or transfer the excess proceeds to a third party to the extent that it is obliged to do so by law.

11

9 Continuation

9.1 Continuing security

This Agreement shall create continuing security and any change or amendment whatsoever to the Secured Documents or any document or agreement relating thereto shall neither affect the validity of this Agreement nor the obligations which are imposed on the Assignor pursuant to it. The same applies, for the avoidance of doubt, in the event of a temporary expiration of the Secured Claims.

9.2 Transfer

Waiving § 418 of the BGB (applied by analogy), the Assignor agrees that the security created hereunder shall not be affected by any transfer, novation or assumption of obligations of any Obligor arising under or in connection with the Secured Documents to, or by, any third party.

9.3 Substitution of the Security Agent

The Assignor undertakes to enter into any agreement reasonably required by the Security Agent and otherwise to do whatever is reasonably required by the Security Agent if the Security Agent transfers its rights and obligations under the Secured Documents wholly or partially to a third party. In particular, the Security Agent may require the Assignor to create new assignments over the Receivables in favour of the third party or another person designated by the Security Agent.

11 Miscellaneous

11.1 Interpretation

In case of doubt, the meaning of the German expressions used in this Agreement prevails over the meaning of the English expressions to which they relate.

11.2 Remedies cumulative

No failure or delay on the part of the Security Agent to exercise any power, right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or any partial exercise of any power, right or remedy preclude its further exercise or the exercise of any other power, right or remedy.

11.3 Partial invalidity

If any of the provisions of this Agreement is or becomes invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part for whatever reason, including a violation of any laws applicable to it, the validity of the other provisions hereof and any other Secured Document is not and shall not be affected. In the event of an invalid, unenforceable or impractical (wirtschaftlich unmöglich) provision, such provision shall be replaced by a valid, enforceable and practical provision or arrangement, that corresponds as closely as possible to the invalid, unenforceable or impractical provision and to the parties’ economic aims pursued by and reflected in this Agreement. The same applies in the event that this Agreement does not contain a provision necessary to achieve the economic purpose expressed in this Agreement (Regelungslücke).

11.4 Conclusion of this Agreement (Vertragsschluss)

11.4.1 The parties to this Agreement may choose to conclude this Agreement by an exchange of signed signature page(s), transmitted by any means of telecommunication (telekommunikative Übermittlung) such as by way of fax or electronic photocopy.

11.4.2 If the parties to this Agreement choose to conclude this Agreement pursuant to Clause 11.4.1 above, they will transmit the signed signature page(s) of this Agreement to Linklaters LLP, attention to Michael Schnurr (by e-mail to Michael.Schnurr@linklaters.com) or Rosali Reindl (by e-mail to Rosali.Reindl@linklaters.com) (each a “Recipient”). The Agreement will be considered concluded once one Recipient has actually received the signed signature page(s) (Zugang der Unterschriftsseite(n)) from all parties to this Agreement (whether by way of fax, electronic photocopy or other means of telecommunication) and at the time of the receipt of the last outstanding signature page(s) by such one Recipient.

13

11.4.3 For the purposes of this Clause 11.4 only, the parties to this Agreement appoint each Recipient as their attorney (Empfangsvertreter) and expressly allow (gestatten) each Recipient to collect the signed signature page(s) from all and for all parties to this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Recipient will have no further duties connected with its position as Recipient. In particular, each Recipient may assume the conformity to the authentic original(s) of the signature page(s) transmitted to it by means of telecommunication, the genuineness of all signatures on the original signature page(s) and the signing authority of the signatories.

11.5 Changes

Changes, amendments and waivers of any provision of this Agreement including this Clause 11.5 (Changes) are only valid if made in writing, unless notarisation or another form is required by law. As written form an exchange of signed signature pages, transmitted by way of fax, computer fax or attached as an electronic photocopy to an electronic mail shall be sufficient. However, in the case of faxes, computer faxes or electronic photocopies attached to electronic mail, any party may require that any declaration made by fax, computer fax or electronic photocopy attached to electronic mail shall be confirmed by a letter or, in the event of the conclusion or the amendment of an agreement, that all parties sign an original copy of such agreement.

11.6 Governing law

11.6.1 This Agreement is governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany.

11.6.2 Any non-contractual rights and obligations arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall also be governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany.

11.7 Jurisdiction

The courts of Frankfurt am Main, Germany have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute arising out of or in connection with this Agreement (including a dispute regarding the existence, validity or termination of this Agreement; but excluding any dispute in relation to the existence, validity or enforceability of the Secured Claims).
