The Credit Facility may be used by each Borrower independently, provided that the aggregate principal amount outstanding may not exceed the Aggregate Facility Amount and the amount of the respective Facility. The obligations of each Borrower under the Credit Facility Agree- ment are joint and several (gesamtschuldnerische Haftung). Such joint and several liability will not end upon termination of this Credit Facility Agreement (e.g. upon the expiration or cancel- lation) but only upon final settlement of all claims of the Bank including interest, fees and costs.

In this Credit Facility Agreement the following words and terms are defined as specified below:









 



	

 



	

„Banking Day“ means a day (other than  a Saturday or Sunday) on which banks are open for general business in Stuttgart.

If the EURIBOR for an interest period following the first i n- terest period cannot be determined two TARGET-days prior to the commencement of the relevant interest period the Bank will determine interest for the relevant interest period based on interest rates customary in the European interbank market for the particular interest period plus the agreed margin.
