 SCHEDULE 1 

Limitations with respect to Guarantors incorporated in Germany. 

(a) Definitions 
 (i) “German
Guarantor” means a Guarantor incorporated or established in Germany in the legal form of a limited liability company (GmbH) or a limited partnership with a limited liability company as general partner (GmbH & Co. KG).

 (ii) “Net Assets” means an amount equal to the sum of the amounts of the German Guarantor’s (or, in the case of a
GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner’s) assets (consisting of all assets which correspond to the items set forth in section 266 paragraph 2 A, B, C, D and E of the German Commercial Code (Handelsgesetzbuch –
“HGB”)) less the aggregate amount of such German Guarantor’s (or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner’s) liabilities (consisting of all liabilities and liability reserves which correspond to the
items set forth in section 266 paragraph 3 B, C, D and E HGB), save that any obligations (Verbindlichkeiten) of the German Guarantor (and, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, of its general partner) (A) owing to Dutch Co-Issuer
and/or any of Dutch Co-Issuer’s Subsidiaries or any other affiliated company which are subordinated pursuant to section 39 paragraph 1 no. 5 or section 39 paragraph 2 of the German Insolvency Code (Insolvenzordnung) and including
obligations under guarantees for obligations which are so subordinated or (B) incurred in violation of any of the provisions of the Indenture (unless neither with wilful misconduct nor gross negligence) shall be disregarded. 

The Net Assets shall be determined in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles applicable from time to time in Germany
(Grundsätze ordnungsmäßiger Buchführung) and be based on the same principles that were applied by the German Guarantor (or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner) in the preparation of its most
recent annual balance sheet (Jahresbilanz). 
 (iii) “Protected Capital” means in relation to a German Guarantor the
aggregate amount of: 
 (A) its (or, where the German Guarantor is a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner’s)
share capital (Stammkapital) as registered in the commercial register (Handelsregister) provided that any increase registered after the date of the Indenture (or in case of a New Guarantor, the date it has become a party to the
Indenture) shall not be taken into account unless (i) if the increase has been effected out of retained earnings (Kapitalerhöhung aus Gesellschaftsmitteln) such increase has been effected with the prior written consent of the
Trustee and, in any case, (ii) only to the extent it is fully paid up; and 
 (B) its (or when applicable where the
German Guarantor is a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner’s) amount of profits (Gewinne) which are not available for distribution to its shareholder(s) in accordance with section 268 paragraph 8 HGB. 

(iv) “Up-stream and/or Cross-stream Guarantee” means the Guarantee (which, for the purpose of this Schedule 1, shall
also include any other obligation of the German Guarantor to reimburse costs or pay indemnities under or in connection with the Indenture) if and to the extent the Guarantee secures the obligations of a Guarantor which is a shareholder of the German
Guarantor (and/or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, of its general partner) or an affiliated company (verbundenes Unternehmen) of such shareholder within the meaning of section 16, 17 or 18 of the German Stock Corporation Act
(Aktiengesetz) (other than the German Guarantor and its Subsidiaries and, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, the general partner and its Subsidiaries), provided that it shall not constitute an Up-stream or Cross-stream Guarantee if and
to the extent the Guarantee guarantees amounts outstanding under the Indenture in relation to any financial accommodation made available under the Indenture to any Issuer and on-lent to, or issued for the benefit of, the relevant German Guarantor or
any of its Subsidiaries (and, where the German Guarantor is a GmbH & Co. KG, to, or for the benefit of, its general partner or any of its Subsidiaries) and still outstanding from time to time. 

 (b) This Section applies if and to the extent the Guarantee is given by a German Guarantor and is an Up-stream
and/or Cross-stream Guarantee. 
 (c) The Trustee (acting for the Holders of the Notes) agrees that the enforcement of the Guarantee given by a German
Guarantor shall be limited if: 
 (i) (and to the extent that) the Guarantee constitutes an Upstream- and/or Cross-Stream Guarantee; and

 (ii) payment under the Guarantee would otherwise 

(A) have the effect of reducing the German Guarantor’s (or, where the German Guarantor is a GmbH & Co. KG, its
general partner’s) Net Assets to an amount that is lower than the amount of its (or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner’s) Protected Capital or, if the amount of the Net Assets is already lower than the amount of
its (or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner’s) Protected Capital, cause the Net Assets to be further reduced; and 

(B) thereby give rise to a violation of the capital maintenance requirement as set out in section 30 paragraph 1 of the German
Limited Liability Companies Act (Gesetz betreffend die Gesellschaften mit beschränkter Haftung); and 
 (iii) the relevant
German Guarantor has complied with its obligation to deliver the Management Determination and the Auditor’s Determination, in each case together with an up-to-date balance sheet, in accordance with the requirements set out in paragraphs
(d) and (e) below. 
 (d) Within ten (10) Business Days after a Holder of the Notes has made a demand under the Guarantee, the German
Guarantor shall provide a certificate signed by its managing director(s) (Geschäftsführer) confirming in writing if and to what extent the Guarantee is an Up-stream and/or Cross-stream Guarantee and an enforcement of the Guarantee
would have the effects referred to in paragraph (c) (ii) above (the “Management Determination”). Such confirmation shall comprise an up-to-date balance sheet of the German Guarantor (and, in the case of a GmbH &
Co. KG, its general partner) and a detailed calculation, based on the provisions of this Supplemental Indenture of the amount of the Net Assets and Protected Capital of the German Guarantor (or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general
partner). The relevant German Guarantor shall fulfil its obligations under the Guarantee within three (3) Business Days of providing the Management Determination (and each Holder of the Notes and/or the Trustee shall be entitled to enforce the
Guarantee) in an amount which pursuant to the Management Determination would not cause the effects set out in paragraph (c) (ii) above (irrespective of whether or not the Trustee agrees with the Management Determination). 

(e) If the Trustee (acting on the instructions of the Holder of the Notes) disagrees with the Management Determination, it may within fifteen
(15) Business Days of its receipt request the German Guarantor to deliver, at its own cost and expense, within thirty (30) Business Days of such request an up-to-date balance sheet of the German Guarantor (and, in the case of a
GmbH & Co. KG, of its general partner), drawn-up by an auditor appointed by the German Guarantor in consultation with the Trustee, together with a detailed calculation, based on the provisions of this Supplemental Indenture, of the amount
of the Net Assets and Protected Capital of the German Guarantor (or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner) (the “Auditor’s Determination”). The German Guarantor shall fulfil its obligations under the
Guarantee within three (3) Business Days of providing the Auditor’s Determination (and each Holder of the Notes and/or the Trustee shall be entitled to enforce the Guarantee) in an amount which pursuant to the Auditor’s Determination
would not cause the effects set out in paragraph (c) (ii) above. 
 (f) No reduction of the amount enforceable pursuant to this Schedule 1 will
prejudice the right of the Holders of the Notes and/or the Trustee to continue to enforce the Guarantee (subject always to the operation of the limitations set out above at the time of such enforcement) until full satisfaction of the claims
guaranteed. 
 (g) Each German Guarantor shall (and, in the case of a German Guarantor in the form of a GmbH & Co. KG, shall procure that its
general partner will) do everything commercially justifiable and legally permitted to avoid the 

 
enforcement of the Guarantee becoming limited pursuant to the terms of this Schedule and shall in particular, after the occurrence and continuation of an Enforcement Event and within three
(3) months after a written request of the Trustee realize at least at market value any of its (and, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, any of its general partner’s) assets that are not necessary, as determined by the relevant German
Guarantor in its sole discretion, for its business (nicht betriebsnotwendig) (or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, that of its general partner) and is shown in its (or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general
partner’s) balance sheet with a book value that is in the reasonable opinion of the Trustee significantly lower than the market value.
