7.6

Further Undertakings

Furthermore, the Pledgor undertakes to the Security Agent and the Pledgees:

(a)

to notify the Security Agent promptly of any event or circumstance other than interpretation of law which affects or is reasonably likely to affect the validity or enforceability of any of the Pledges;

(b)

at its own expense, to execute and do all such assurances, acts and things as the Security Agent may reasonably require:

(i)

for perfecting or protecting the security intended to be afforded by this Agreement; and

(ii)

if the Pledges have become enforceable, for facilitating the realisation of all or any part of the assets which are subject to this Agreement and the exercise of all powers, authorities and discretions vested in the Security Agent,

and in particular to execute all transfers, conveyances, assignments and releases of that property whether to the Security Agent or to its nominees and give all notices, orders and directions which the Security Agent may reasonably think expedient;

(c)

without prejudice to the Pledgor’s right to withdraw sums standing to the credit of the Accounts in accordance with Clause 5, to refrain from any acts or omissions, the purpose or effect of which has a material adverse effect on the value of the Pledges constituted hereunder;

(d)

(i) to procure

(A)

the closure of the Dormant Accounts within 30 Business Days from the date hereof;

(B)

the transfer of any amounts standing to the credit to any of the Dormant Accounts to any other Account pledged to the Finance Parties under the terms of this Agreement;

and

(ii)

to promptly pledge any Dormant Account in case the closure of the respective Dormant Account has not been given effect within the period mentioned under Clause 7.6(d)(i)(A) above; and

(e)

not to encumber or otherwise dispose of the Accounts (or any of them) without the prior written consent of the Security Agent which may not be unreasonably withheld,

in each case, except as permitted under the Credit Agreement.

8.	RELEASE OF SECURITY

Even prior to the full and complete satisfaction of all Secured Claims, the Security Agent is obliged to release upon the Pledgor’s request all or part of the Security insofar as the realisable value of the Security and any other security given to the Security Agent or the other Finance Parties with respect to the Secured Claims exceeds, not only temporarily, the Secured Claims by more than 10%. The Security Agent may, at its discretion, determine which part of the Security shall be released.

9.	WAIVER OF DEFENCES

(a)

The Pledgor hereby waives its rights of revocation (Anfechtbarkeit) and set-off (Aufrechenbarkeit) it may have pursuant to §§ 1211 and 770(1) and (2) of the German Civil Code. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Security Agent or the Pledgees (or any of them), 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.

(b)

The Pledgor hereby irrevocably waives any rights which may pass to the Pledgor by subrogation or otherwise, including but not limited to, any recourse claim against any Obligor (Verzicht auf Rückgriffsansprüche) which it may obtain (i) in the event that the Pledgor repays any debt of any other Obligor under any of the Finance Documents, or (ii) in the event of enforcement of the Pledges (or any of them).

10.

INDEMNITY

10.1

Liability for Damages

Neither the Security Agent nor the Pledgees shall be liable for any loss or damage suffered by the Pledgor save in respect of such loss or damage which is suffered as a result of the gross negligence (xxxxx Fahrlässigkeit) or wilful misconduct (Vorsatz) of the Security Agent.

10.2

Indemnification

The Pledgor will indemnify the Security Agent and each of the Pledgees and keep the Security Agent and each of the Pledgees indemnified against any losses, actions, claims, expenses, demands and liabilities which may be incurred by or made against the Security Agent and/or each of the Pledgees as a result of any breach of the Pledgor of any of its obligations or undertakings contained herein except to the extent that such losses, actions, claims, expenses, demands or liabilities have resulted from the gross negligence (xxxxx Fahrlässigkeit) or wilful misconduct (Vorsatz) of the Pledgees or the Security Agent.

10.3

This Clause 10 shall survive the termination of this Agreement under Clause 11 or otherwise.

11.

DURATION AND INDEPENDENCE

11.1

Duration

This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until the full and complete satisfaction of the Secured Claims. The Pledges shall not cease to exist, if any payments made in satisfaction of the Secured Claims have only temporarily discharged the Secured Claims.

11.2

Continuing Security

This Agreement shall create a continuing security which means that no change or amendment whatsoever in any Finance Document or in any document or agreement related thereto shall affect the validity of this Agreement.

11.3

Independence

This Agreement is independent from any other security or guarantee which may have been or will be given to the Security Agent and/or any of the other Pledgees with respect to any obligation of any of the Obligors under the Finance Documents. None of such other securities or guarantees shall prejudice, or shall be prejudiced by, or shall be merged in any way with, this Agreement.

12.

COSTS AND EXPENSES

The Pledgor must pay to each Finance Party the amount of all costs and expenses (including the costs and expenses of legal advisers) incurred by it in connection with the enforcement of, or the preservation of any rights under, any Finance Document.

13.

PARTIAL INVALIDITY

If any provision of this Agreement or any part thereof should be or become invalid or unenforceable, this shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions hereof. The invalid or unenforceable provision shall be replaced by that provision which best meets the intent of the replaced provision.

14.

AMENDMENTS

Changes and amendments to this Agreement, including this Clause 14, shall be made in writing.

15.

NOTICES AND THEIR LANGUAGE

15.1

Notices

Any notice or other communication under or in connection with this Agreement to the Pledgor or the Security Agent and/or the Pledges shall be in writing and shall be delivered personally, by post or facsimile and shall be sent to the address or facsimile number of the party, and for the attention of the individual, set forth in Schedule 4 hereto or such other address or facsimile number as is notified by that party for this purpose to the Security Agent from time to time.

15.2

In the event of any conflict between the English text and the text in any other language, the English text shall prevail.

16.

16.2
