2nd SUPPLEMENTARY AGREEMENT
 
to the
 
Purchase Agreement of 5 December 2004
 
The Parties notarially recorded on 5 December 2004 a Master Agreement (A. Record
294/2004 of Notary Etienne Petitpierre, with offices in Basel - "MA") and a
Purchase Agreement (A. Record 293/2004 - "PA"), as well as a Supplementary
Agreement to the PA (A. Record 64/2005) dated 4 March 2005, as a bundle of
annexes. The aforementioned Purchase Agreement of 5 December 2004 shall now be
amended and/or supplemented, with all other provisions remaining in effect in
their present form. The amendments and/or supplements depend in part (but only
where this is expressly indicated) on the occurrence of the circumstances
defined in Annex 1 ("Circumstances"). In this PA, all references to the MA are
solely to the new version of the MA of today’s date unless otherwise expressly
provided herein:
 
I.
Conditions, Effective Date (§3)
 
1.
  The following sentence shall be added at the end of § 3.1:
 
"In the preceding sentence, in the event of the occurrence of the Circumstances,
the date "29 December 2006" shall be replaced by "29 December 2007"."
 
2.
  The following additional paragraph is to be added at the end of § 3.3.1:
 
"The existence of a regulatory permit shall be evidenced by sending a copy of
the permit or of the clearance statement. A temporary regulatory permit or
clearance statement, or one such having a fixed term, shall suffice.
 
 
-2-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
 
Any regulatory permit or clearance statement that has only been granted orally
must be evidenced via a letter of confirmation to be sent to the relevant
authority. The writing must refer to the date of the discussion, contact person
involved, and the content of the discussion.
 
In the event of the occurrence of the Circumstances, and unless the Closing
Conditions have also been satisfied by 30 November 2007, any unissued regulatory
permit specified in Annex § 3.3.1 Parts B and C shall not be used for the
calculation of the necessary regulatory permits whose absence is waived pursuant
to § 3.3.1 sentence 3 unless net sales in the area for which a regulatory permit
was not issued ("Non-Critical Area") reached at least EUR 400,000.00 between 1
December 2006 and 30 November 2007.
 
The relevant net sales shall be determined by adding all invoice amounts, for
the actual value of the goods (excluding VAT, transportation costs, insurance
costs, and the like, and less all returns of new devices), that were prepared
for goods delivered in this period; the corresponding invoiced value of goods
for orders that exist in writing and are received by 30 November 2007 shall be
added to that amount. In the case of rental, leasing, participation and WAP
devices, the net sales or invoiced value of goods is calculated by multiplying
the relevant number of units by the net list price.
 
In the event that the goods are billed in a currency other than the euro, the
euro amount to be specified shall be determined by taking the average of the
euro rate vis-à-vis the respective currency (as quoted in the Wall Street
Journal, European edition) on 1 December 2006 and 30 November 2007.
 
This exceptional provision shall apply to a maximum of 20 regulatory permits."
 
3.
  The following paragraph is added to § 3.7:
 
"In the event of the occurrence of the Circumstances, the foregoing paragraph
shall not apply."
 
4.
  The following new paragraph is inserted:
 
"§ 3.8. Effective immediately, the Buyer shall be informed in full regarding all
permit proceedings initiated after 5 December 2004. The Buyer shall thereupon
initiate and conduct, to a reasonable extent and within a reasonable period of
time, the Buyer’s own regulatory permit proceeding, insofar as such proceeding
is permissible for the Buyer and is not pointless, does not adversely affect the
Buyer in another permit proceeding, or negatively affect a previously issued
permit.
 
 
-3-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
The outcome of such regulatory permit proceedings shall not be relevant to the
existence of the Closing Condition as defined in § 3.2.1. Such proceedings shall
also not be relevant for the purposes of § 3.3.1."
 
5.
  The following new paragraph is inserted:
 
"§ 3.9      The Parties shall, no later than 15 February 2006, review in good
faith the content of the lists of regulatory permits in terms of the continued
necessity of such permits for the AI Group, and, if applicable, the shortening
of the same, and the Parties shall make any relevant adjustment. However, no
adjustment shall be made unless both Parties agree to the same.
 
The foregoing provisions shall not apply in the event that the Circumstances
shall occur."
 
II.
Purchase Price (§ 4)
 
1.
  An additional paragraph is added at the end of § 4.5.8:
 
"If regulatory permits have not been obtained but the corresponding Closing
Condition has nevertheless been satisfied pursuant to § 3.3.1, then in the event
of the occurrence of the Circumstances, the EBITDA value for fiscal year 2006
shall be adjusted as follows:
 
the average gross profit or loss achieved in the non-licensed, Non-Critical
Areas described in § 3.3.1 in fiscal years 2006 and 2007 shall be added to the
EBITDA."
 
2.
  § 4.6.1 is reworded to read as follows:
 
"The term "net financial debt" refers to the balance that results from the
interest-bearing assets, the book values of the rental, leasing, participation,
and WAP devices listed under plant, property, and equipment, and the
interest-bearing liabilities on the closing balance sheet. For purposes hereof,
the book value in the closing balance sheet for devices delivered by 31 December
2005 for the first time based on a corresponding agreement is to be accounted
for at 50% and at 75% for all other devices delivered in like fashion."
 
3.
  Annex § 4.6.5 shall be replaced by Annex § 4.6.5 NEW.

The following paragraph is also be added to § 5.2:
 
"In the event of the occurrence of the Circumstances, if the Purchase Price
should be less than the value of EUR 20,000,000.00 based on the closing balance
sheet to be prepared pursuant to § 8, then the balance shall be retained without
a duty of repayment and interest-free by the Sellers ("Balance I")."

  § 5.3 is reworded to read as follows:
 
"Any earn-out payment by the Buyer to the Sellers shall be due 15 banking days
after it has been determined to be binding and incontestable pursuant to § 7, to

by a set-off against Balance I, if any."

2.
  The following new paragraph is inserted as follows:

Rights of Cancellation and Standstill Premium (§ 16)
 
1.
  The following sentence is added at the end of § 16.1.2:
 
"The Buyer shall be entitled, within the limits of § 3.3.1 and subject to these
being counted towards the limits set out therein, to withdraw any applications,
provided it has informed the Sellers in advance and in a comprehensive and clear
manner."
 
2.
  The following sentence is added to § 16.1.3:

4.
  The following sentence is added to § 16.2:
 
"In the event of the occurrence of the Circumstances, the standstill premium
shall increase to EUR 20,000,000.00. The provisions regarding the Extension
Premium in § 16A remain unaffected." 
 
5.
  A new § 16.3 is inserted:
 
"If the Circumstances occur and if, in order to prevent an immediately imminent
denial, the Buyer is compelled to withdraw an application in the course of a
permit proceeding pursuant to Annex § 3.3.1 Part (A), the Agreement shall be
terminated upon receipt of the statement of withdrawal, and the standstill
premium shall fall due. This shall be considered an event of definite
non-Consummation within the meaning of § 16A (i).
 
However, this provision shall not apply unless the Buyer informs the Sellers in
advance and in a comprehensive and clear manner regarding the imminent denial,
and an attorney who specializes in compliance issues and has been engaged by
both Parties confirms that the denial is imminent and that the cause for the
denial cannot be cured."
 
6.
  A new § 16.4 is inserted as follows:
 
"Within 15 banking days after the occurrence of the Circumstances, the Buyer
must remit, in full, the standstill premium to the account indicated in § 5.4,
in the form of an interest-free advance payment, barring any
regulatory/compliance-related impediments to such payment.
 
In the event of such an impediment, the Buyer must make the advance payment to
an escrow account to be designated by the Sellers. The Parties shall jointly
strive to reach an economically comparable alternative solution within a short
period of time.
 
If the right to the standstill premium fails to arise, and no Consummation
occurs, the advance payment must be repaid to the Buyer without interest within
15 banking days after it has been conclusively established that a Consummation
cannot take place for reasons other than those indicated in § 16.1, but in any
case no later than 15 banking days after 31 December 2007. If after the
expiration of the aforementioned period of 15 banking days, the advance payment
has not been repaid to the Buyer, then from that date forward interest shall
accrue on the advance payment at the rate of five (5) percentage points above
the base interest rate set by the European Central Bank (ECB)."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
 
7.
  A new § 16A is inserted as follows:
 
"Extension Premium (§ 16A)
 
Notwithstanding and in addition to the standstill premium, in the event of the
occurrence of the Circumstances, the Buyer must pay to the Sellers, on 1 July
2007 and 1 October 2007, an extension premium of EUR 5,000,000.00 in each case.
 
The duty to pay the respective extension premium shall not apply (i) if the
existence of a definite non-Consummation (e.g. a denial of any of the antitrust
clearances required pursuant to § 3.4, § 3.5 or § 3.6, a denial of any
Regulatory Approval by a regulatory authority described in Annex § 3.3.1 Part
(A) and/or a denial of any of the Regulatory Approvals described in § 3.3.2) has
been established prior to the relevant extension date and is known to the
Parties, or (ii) if the Consummation has occurred prior to the relevant
Extension Date."
