Alternatively, as the problem is one of being potentially sued under
German law, transfer the domains to someone who lives outside Germany,
who could then offer the domains free of charge to the German company
who own the .de domain. I doubt a German lawyer would get far in trying
to persue a cross-border action for expenses against someone who wants
to give his clients a present.

It is a pitiful state of affairs when you are scared to do the
reasonable thing of just giving them the domain in case you are sued
anyway...
