(d) participation in other enterprises and abandonment of such
participations;
(e) purchase and sale of patents, licenses and manufacturing
secrets (Fabrikationsgeheimnisse)
(f) conclusion, prolongation and abandonment of cartel
agreements, syndicates, conventions, communities of interests
(Interessengemeinschaften) and so forth;
(g) conclusion and abandonment of collaboration agreements;
(h) other matters, which require expenditure of funds
[sonstige Angelegenheiten, die Geldmittel erfordern].
