Each Lender shall, upon such request, enter into good faith negotiations with the Borrower with a view to continuing the Loan for a negotiation period of up to thirty (30) days after receipt of that request (or such longer period as may be agreed by the Borrower and each respective Lender) (such period, in each case, the "Consultation Period"). Each Lender shall, after the expiry of the relevant Consultation Period, be entitled to terminate the Loan in writing to the Borrower (copy to the Paying Agent) at its partial amount of the aggregate principal amount thereof with interest accrued to the date fixed for prepayment on giving not less than thirty (30) days’ prior notice. Such notice will be irrevocable and must specify the date fixed for prepayment.

(1)    The Borrower and – in case of the utilization of the Guarantee – the Guarantor irrevocably undertake to pay, as and when due, any sum of principal or interest owed under the Loan Agreement in Euros to the account of the Paying Agent by 12:00 (Munich time).

(2)    If any sum of principal is not paid to and available on the account of the Paying Agent by 12:00 (Munich time) when due, the Paying Agent shall not be obliged to forward the due amount to the Lender on the same day. The respective sum shall bear interest from (and including) the due date to (but excluding) the date of actual payment of the sum overdue at a rate of 1 per cent per annum above the rate of interest applicable to the Loan on the respective due date without prejudice to the right of the Lender to claim any further damages and without prejudice to the right of the Borrower to present evidence that the loss due to the late payment was less.

(3)    If an interest payment is not made to the account of the Paying Agent by 12:00 (Munich time) when due, the Paying Agent shall not be obliged to forward the due amount to the Lender on the same day. The Lender has the right to demand indemnification for the loss caused by the delay in payment.

(4)    Payments by the Borrower and the Guarantor shall be applied in the sequence provided for in section 367 para. 1 of the German Civil Code (BGB) to the amounts falling due. If, in the event of a full or partial transfer of the contractual position pursuant to § 10, the payments by the Borrower or the Guarantor are not sufficient to fully redeem any given amount due, the payments of the Borrower and the Guarantor shall be distributed among the Lenders on a pro rata basis in conformity with their relevant participations in the Loan.

(5)    By a separate agreement, the Borrower and the Guarantor have mandated Bayerische Landesbank to exercise the role of paying agent (Bayerische Landesbank shall hereinafter be referred to as "Paying Agent" with respect to the duties in connection with this role). The Paying Agent shall exercise this role in accordance with the paying agency agreement dated as of 12 October 2016. The Borrower together with the Guarantor may at any time mandate another Credit Institution in the Federal Republic of Germany to exercise the role of Paying Agent provided the Borrower informs the Paying Agent (with copy to the Lender) in writing two weeks in advance of the planned change. Any reference in this Loan Agreement to the "Paying Agent" shall include any further Credit Institutions that exercise the role of Paying Agent.

(6)    By order of the Borrower the Paying Agent acts as custodian for the Lenders (according to their respective partial amount of the Loan) with regard to the original certificate of Indebtedness (Schuldschein). The custodianship of the Paying Agent shall end once the Lender´s respective partial amount of the Loan has been repaid (including interest). Above that the Paying Agent acts solely as agent of the Borrower and the Guarantor and does not have any obligations towards or relationship of agency or trust to any Lender.

(7)    Subject to the aforementioned provisions of this § 4, fulfilment in relation to the Lender shall only occur once it receives the relevant payments or these are credited to an account it has designated.

(1)    All payments of principal and interest under the Loan Agreement by the Borrower as well as those payable under the Guarantee by the Guarantor shall be made without deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any present or future taxes or duties of whatever nature imposed or levied by or on behalf of the country where the Borrower or the Guarantor has its legal seat or any governmental authority there ("Withholding Taxes") unless such deduction or withholding is required by law. If the Borrower or the Guarantor is required by law to make such withholding or deduction, then the Borrower or the Guarantor shall pay such additional amounts (the "Additional Amounts") as may be necessary in order that the net amounts received by the Lender after such deduction or withholding shall equal the respective amounts of principal and interest which would have been receivable under the Loan Agreement in the absence of such deduction or withholding. The foregoing does not apply to the extent any such withholding or deduction is attributable to a FATCA Deduction required to be made by a party to this Loan Agreement.

(2)    A payment shall not be increased pursuant to this § 5 if and to the extent that on the date on which the payment falls due: (i) the payment could have been made to the relevant Lender (which is not a Permitted Non-Qualifying Bank Lender) without a Tax Deduction if the Lender had been a Qualifying Bank, but on that date that Lender is not or has ceased to be a Qualifying Bank other than as a result of any change after the date it became a Lender under this Loan Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration, or application of) any law or treaty, or any published practice or published concession of any relevant taxing authority; or (ii) the Borrower is able to demonstrate that the payment could have been made to the Lender without the Tax Deduction had that Lender complied with its obligations under § 10.

If - after the date hereof - by reason of introduction or change of the interpretation or application by the respective competent authority with respect to any law or regulation or compliance with any law or regulation (except for such laws and regulations which have been in force as of the date of this Loan Agreement and with which the respective Lender was not in compliance as of the date hereof), there is (a) any substantial increase in the costs for a Lender to fund or maintain the Loan or (b) a reduction in the rate of return on the Loan or a decrease in the net return on the Loan in relation to the equity of the respective Lender, then the affected Lender, the Guarantor and the Borrower shall enter into negotiations with the aim of finding an acceptable solution for the Parties.

(1) For the term of this Loan Agreement, the Borrower and the Guarantor will not, and will ensure that none of their respective Principal Subsidiaries will, create or permit to subsist any mortgage, lien, charge, pledge or other form of in rem security interest (the "Security") upon any of their respective assets, to secure (i) any Financial Indebtedness or (ii) any guarantee or indemnity in respect of any Financial Indebtedness unless, at the same time or prior thereto, the Borrower's obligations under the Loan Agreement are equally and rateably secured.

        This § 7(1) does not apply to: (i) any Security created or to be created pursuant to mandatory law or created or to be created contractually in the ordinary course of business, including (without limitation) Security (x) in favor of banks with which accounts or deposit accounts are kept with respect to cash, cash equivalents (being readily marketable direct obligations of a government or any agency or instrumentality thereof, insured certificates of deposit of, time deposits, or bankers’ acceptances with any commercial bank that issues (or the parent of which issues) commercial paper, commercial paper issued by any corporate entity or any commercial bank) or investment property kept or deposited with that bank (for the avoidance of doubt, to the extent the creation of such Security is based on and required by the general terms of business of such bank or mandatory law) and/or (y) securing reimbursement obligations with respect to letters of credit or (z) in respect of obligations resulting from transactions entered into to hedge risks or reduce costs with respect to interest rates, currency or commodity exposure (but not for speculative purposes); (ii) Security existing on the assets of a person prior to acquisition of the shares or participation in that relevant person or Security existing on any acquired asset at the time of such acquisition; (iii) Security granted in connection with (x) factoring arrangements (with or without recourse) or (y) transactions qualifying as financial leases or (z) under any sale and lease- back arrangements or in connection with transactions (A) profiting from "new market tax credits" provided by Section 45D of the US Internal Revenue Code or (B) entered into with local development authorities for the purpose of providing abatement of local taxes; and (iv) any Security over assets which do not at any time exceed 10% of the book value of the consolidated assets of the Guarantor.

(2) The Borrower and the Guarantor shall ensure that for the term of this Loan Agreement, their respective payment obligations under this Loan Agreement or the Guarantee will rank pari passu with all their other present and future, unsecured and unsubordinated payment obligations. This shall not apply to payment obligations whose prior servicing results from mandatory, generally applicable laws or regulations or governmental requirements or in the connection with national or local tax laws or regulations.

(3) The Borrower shall ensure that it is at all times in compliance with the Swiss Non-Bank Rules, provided that the Borrower shall not be in breach of this undertaking if its number of creditors in respect of either the Swiss Ten Non-Bank-Rule or the Swiss Twenty Non-Bank Rule is exceeded solely by reason of a failure by one or more Lenders to comply with their obligations under § 10. For the purpose of its compliance with the Swiss Twenty Non-Bank Rule under this § 7(3), the number of Lenders under this Agreement which are not Qualifying Banks shall be deemed to be eight (irrespective of whether or not there are, at any time, any such Lenders).

(1) The Lender shall be entitled to terminate the Loan Agreement immediately and to demand immediate redemption of the Loan and all related claims in particular if

(ii) any Financial Indebtedness of the Borrower, the Guarantor or of any of its Principal Subsidiaries, which exceeds an amount of USD 50 Mio., is declared or may be declared to be or otherwise becomes due and payable prior to its specified maturity as a result of an event of default (however described); or

(e) a competent court opens insolvency proceedings against the Borrower's, Guarantor’s or a Principal Subsidiary’s assets (or does not commence such proceedings due to the absence of cost-covering assets), such proceedings are instituted but not discharged or stayed within sixty (60) days, or the Borrower, the Guarantor or the Principal Subsidiary applies for or institutes such proceedings; or

(f) the Borrower or the Guarantor enters formal liquidation proceedings provided that such liquidation does not occur as part of any transaction permitted under § 8(1)(i); or

(j) the Borrower or the Guarantor transfers or conveys individual items of its fixed assets to another person or entity which is not a member of the Group. This does not apply to any transfers or conveyances:

(1) The Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees in favour of the Lender subject to German law to pay to the Lender all present and future claims (whether contingent or subject to a time limit) of the Lender under this Loan Agreement against the Borrower. The payment shall be due pay within five (5) Business Days of a written demand by the Lender and assertion that the Borrower has failed to pay an amount payable under the Loan when due. § 4 shall apply on the payments under the Guarantee. For the avoidance of doubt, this Guarantee does not constitute a guarantee upon first demand (Garantie auf erstes Anfordern) and, in particular, receipt of such written demand shall not preclude any rights and/or defenses the Guarantor may have with respect to any payment requested by the Lender under this guarantee and indemnity.

(2) This Guarantee is an independent payment obligation of the Guarantor which shall remain binding irrespective of the legal validity and enforceability of the Loan Agreement and notwithstanding any defenses or remedies (Einwendungen und Einreden) that the Borrower or any third party may raise.

(3) The Guarantee shall terminate once all amounts due under the Loan Agreement have been unconditionally and finally paid.

Notwithstanding the termination, the Guarantee shall be reinstated and continue in full force and effect if the Lender has to repay any amounts received as a payment under the Loan Agreement or the Guarantee due to insolvency proceedings before court or any similar proceedings regarding the Borrower.

(4) Until all amounts which are or may become payable by the Guarantor under this Loan Agreement have been irrevocably paid in full, (i) any claims of the Guarantor against the Borrower resulting from any payment made by the Guarantor to the Lender hereunder shall be subordinated to any outstanding claims of the Lender against the Borrower under this Loan Agreement, and (ii) the Guarantor undertakes not to claim any payments from the Borrower arising out of or based upon any right of subrogation.

(5) The Guarantor hereby waives its rights to terminate the Guarantee by depositing the guarantee amount with the competent local court (Amtsgericht) by way of security.

(1) The Lender may transfer its contractual position hereunder (including those under the Guarantee) in full or in partial amounts of at least EUR 500,000 and in whole multiples of EUR 500,000 above that - to a Third Party by way of assumption of contract.

(a) In case of the first transfer of the contractual position by the First Lender the following shall apply:

(i) A transfer to a Lender which is not a Qualifying Bank is subject to the consent of the Borrower. The consent of the Borrower to such transfer must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. It is not unreasonable for the Borrower to withhold its consent if, following such transfer, the number of Lenders that are not Qualifying Banks would exceed eight.

Each Lender will confirm to the Borrower before the date on which it intends to become a party to this Loan Agreement in its capacity as such whether it is a Qualifying Bank, and if it is not a Qualifying Bank, that it only counts as one (1) non-bank lender for purposes of determining the number of non-bank lenders. If a Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this provision then such Lender shall be treated for the purposes of this Loan Agreement as if it is not a Qualifying Bank.

(ii) The transfer will be effected by a confirmation of transaction (Geschäftsbestätigung) to be issued by the First Lender and countersigned by the joining Lender. The Paying Agent shall inform the Borrower with respect to each transfer without undue delay.

(b) For all following transfers of the contractual position the following shall apply:

(i) The transfer of the contractual position to a Lender which does not meet the definition of a Qualifying Bank is only permitted with the prior written consent of the Borrower. The consent of the Borrower to such transfer must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; in particular it is not unreasonable for the Borrower to withhold its consent if, following such transfer, the number of Lenders that are not Qualifying Banks would exceed eight. Each Lender will confirm to the Borrower before the date on which it intends to become a party to this Loan Agreement in its capacity as such whether it is a Qualifying Bank, and if it is not a Qualifying Bank, that it only counts as one (1) non-bank lender for purposes of determining the number of non-bank lenders. If a Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this provision then such Lender shall not be treated as a Qualifying Bank for the purposes of this Loan Agreement.

(ii) Such transfer shall become effective as of the transfer date set forth in the Transfer Certificate (Annex 3), provided that the Paying Agent has received a duly completed and duly executed Transfer Certificate substantially in the form set out in the example in Annex 3. The Paying Agent shall inform the Borrower with respect to each transfer without undue delay by submitting a copy of the relevant Transfer Certificate.

(iii) In the event that the Paying Agent receives a Transfer Certificate less than five (5) Banking Days before an Interest Payment Date, any payment made by the Borrower or the Guarantor to the resigning Lender shall release the Borrower from its payment obligations to the joining Lender in the amount of such payment.

(2) Each Lender which confirmed that it was a Qualifying Bank undertakes to notify the Borrower and the Paying Agent promptly upon becoming aware of it ceasing to be a Qualifying Bank.

(3) The result of a transfer is that all of the resigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Loan Agreement and the Guarantee are passed over to the joining Lender to the extent that they are transferred. The effect of a transfer is that the existing Loan Agreement and the Guarantee remain unchanged in force between the new contract parties to the extent that rights and obligations are transferred.

(4) By signing this Loan Agreement, the Borrower grants its prior consent to any such transfer made in compliance with § 10 (1).

(5) The Lender shall be authorized to transfer all its claims under this Loan (incl. those under the Guarantee) to the Deutsche Bundesbank, Banque Centrale du Luxembourg or any other central bank of the ECB system or to the Swiss National Bank or any eurozone development bank ("Förderbank") as security for refinancing purposes. For the validity of such transfer expressly no formal requirements and obligations to inform the Borrower shall be required. Likewise, in case of such transfers being made by any central bank of the ECB system or eurozone development bank expressly no formal requirements and obligations to inform the Borrower shall be required. In case of the liquidation of any rights arising out of this Loan Agreement by any central bank of the ECB system, the restrictions under § 10(1)shall not apply.

(6) For the purposes of this § 10, the Borrower and the Guarantor hereby give their consent to the forwarding of all information contained in this Loan Agreement to joining Lenders or potentially joining Lenders (including any relevant data such joining Lender or potentially joining Lender may require for purposes of section 18 of the German Banking Act (KWG) or in order to meet any other "know your customer" requirements (the "KYC Data")), the respective central bank or development bank for such transfer and, if applicable, to third parties acquiring the participation from beneficiaries to whom a transfer in accordance with § 10 (5) has been made in case of an enforcement of such a security. Such consent shall also extend to measures of publication (e.g. recording the security in a register that authorised third parties have access to) which are required by law for the constitution or consistency of such a security and they exempt the Lender from the banking confidentiality in this respect.

(7) No Lender shall enter into a sub-participation arrangement with another person or assign any rights or claims under this Loan Agreement without transferring the relevant contractual position at the same time and to the same transferee. The transfer of the contractual position to a Lender (i) which does not meet the definition of a Third Party or (ii) is a private individual is not permitted.

(1) The obligations of a Lender under this Loan Agreement are not joint and several (keine gesamtschuldnerische Haftung). No Lender is liable for the obligations of any other Lender under the Loan Agreement.

(2) The rights of a Lender under this Loan Agreement (and under the Guarantee) are not joint and several (keine Gesamtgläubiger). The amounts owed at any time under the Loan Agreement from the Borrower to any Lender shall constitute a separate and independent debt and each Lender shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out of this Loan Agreement and out of the Guarantee independently from another Lender.

(1)   For the purposes of complying with the requirements under section 18 of the German Banking Act (KWG), the Borrower and the Guarantor shall submit in a timely manner to the Lender any

(b) any other information a Lender may reasonably request in order to comply with legal requirements.

(2) The obligation to disclose documents pursuant to § 12 para. 1 shall cease to apply if the documents necessary to comply with section 18 of the German Banking Act (KWG) or any other legal requirements are freely accessible on the Borrower's or Guarantor’s website (in a form that can be saved or printed).

(3) The Borrower and the Guarantor hereby authorize the Lender to pass on or to disclose for review any such documents, data and information as the Lender may consider necessary, useful or appropriate to any potential Third Party (or to a member of the European system of central banks or to the Swiss National Bank for the purposes set out in § 10(4)or to such persons, who are involved in the settlement of the transfer for technical or legal reasons (such as legal advisors, rating agencies, auditors) or to governmental courts and authorities (especially supervisory authorities) that require disclosure by mandatory law, and therefore release the Lender from banking confidentiality.

(4) Apart from that, the Parties, the Guarantor and the Paying Agent agree to treat information and documents received in connection with this Loan as confidential. Legal or regulatory disclosure requirements that the Lender or Paying Agent are subject to remain unaffected.
