3.		at the date of the execution of the First Supplemental Indenture, the First Supplemental Indenture was duly authorized and executed by each German Company party to it; and

4.		each German Company has the corporate power and authority to execute and perform its obligations under the Seventh Supplemental Indenture.

IV.		Qualifications

The opinions expressed herein are subject to the following qualifications:

Our opinions set forth above are subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer, reorganization and moratorium laws, German law principles of Treu und Glauben and other similar laws and judicial decisions relating to or affecting creditors’ rights or remedies generally, including, without limitation, the German Act on Avoiding Transactions (Anfechtungsgesetz), the German Insolvency Code (Insolvenzordnung) and the EC Regulation No. 1346/2000 of May 29, 2000 on insolvency proceedings.

This opinion letter and the legal opinions set out therein are limited to the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany that are generally applicable to transactions of this type and as currently in force and applied by the courts of the Federal Republic of Germany and are given on the basis that this opinion letter will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany and, therefore, we express no opinion with respect to the law of any jurisdiction other than that of the Federal Republic of Germany. We express no opinion as to tax laws. Further, it is an opinion on German law expressed in the English language, and although every effort has been made to ensure accuracy of this opinion letter, there may be irreconcilable differences between the German and English language making it impossible to warrant an entirely accurate interpretation. Also, there are legal concepts which exist in one jurisdiction and language and not in another, and in such cases it may be difficult to provide a completely satisfactory translation or interpretation because equivalent terms do not exist. We accept no responsibility for inaccuracies to the extent they are attributable to these factors. Where a German term has been inserted in italics it alone (and not the English term to which it relates) shall be authoritative for the purpose of interpreting the English term.

Our role in rendering this opinion has been confined to reviewing the Supplemental Indentures from the point of view of German law to the extent necessary for the purpose of rendering this opinion. Accordingly, except for those matters of German law which are specifically addressed in this opinion, we express no opinion or view on the subject matters of the Supplemental Indentures, any other documentation relating thereto, or any other legal issue including (without limitation) whether the Supplemental Indentures are effective for any commercial, accounting, tax or legal objectives or purposes of the parties thereto.

In relation to the opinions under III.2 and III.3, this opinion letter speaks only as of the date of the First Supplemental Indenture and is based on our understandings and assumptions as to the facts and the application of German law as those understandings and assumptions existed on the date of the First Supplemental Indenture. In relation to the opinions under III.1 and III.4, this opinion letter speaks only as of the date hereof and is based on our understandings and assumptions as to the facts and the application of German law as those understandings and assumptions exist on the date hereof. We assume no responsibility to advise you of, or to update or supplement the opinions set out in this letter to reflect, any facts or circumstances

which may come to our attention or any changes in laws which may occur, after the date of this letter.

We consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the reference to our firm under the heading “Validity of the Securities” in the Prospectus. In giving such consent, we do not hereby concede that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

This opinion letter is rendered on the express conditions that (a) it, including all rights and obligations or liabilities in relation thereto, is governed by German law and (b) the courts of Frankfurt am Main, Germany shall have exclusive jurisdiction for any such claims.

Very truly yours
