security interest or other right or remedy which the Third Priority Security Agent and the
Secured Parties may now or at any time in the future have in respect of the Obligations.
	 
	6.3	 	This Pledge shall not be prejudiced by any time or indulgence granted to any person,

Security Agent or the Secured Parties may now or at any time in the future have from or
against the Pledgor or any other person.

	6.4	 	No failure on the part of the Third Priority Security Agent or the Secured Parties to
exercise, or delay on its part in exercising, any of its rights under this Pledge Agreement
shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right
preclude any further or other exercise of that or any other rights.

Third-Ranking Finance Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement or otherwise agreed to
be taken in respect of the Obligations;

discharge, exchange or substitution of, any security taken in respect of the
Obligations; or
	 
	 	6.5.4	 	any other act, event or omission which, but for this Clause 6.5, might
operate to discharge, impair or otherwise affect any of the obligations of the Pledgor
contained in this Pledge Agreement, the rights, powers and remedies conferred upon the
Third Priority Security Agent or the Secured Parties by this Pledge Agreement, the
Pledge or by law.






	6.6	 	For the avoidance of doubt, the Pledgor hereby waives any rights arising for it now
or in the future (if any) under Article 2037 of the Luxembourg Civil Code.
	 
	6.7	 	Neither the Third Priority Security Agent, nor the Secured Parties or any of their
agents shall be liable to the Pledgor by reason of (a) taking any action permitted by this

the Obligations.
	 
	8.3	 	Without prejudice to Clause 8.1 above, this Clause shall remain in full force and
