My comment:

The context is rather strange and doesn't make much sense as it stands, but it appears to have something to do with waste recycling, so I suggest mining the links mentioned below for the words 'licence' and 'exemption'. In fact I should think 'entpflichten' means something like 'to exempt' in this case.
Keywords
WEEE (waste electrical and electronic equipment)
RoHS (restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances)
