Abstract: It is proved that the Lie groups

E_{7}^{(5)}

and

E_{7}^{(7)}

represented in

R^{56}

and the Lie group

E_{7}^{C}

represented in

R^{112}

occur as holonomies of torsion-free affine connections. It is also shown that the moduli spaces of torsion-free affine connnections with these holonomies are finite dimensional, and that every such connection has a local symmetry group of positive dimension.
