Excluding the Parties’ rights under any survived provisions to the extent specified under the Termination Agreement, any claims under Section 6.6, rights to indemnification in Section 7.2 and rights to reimbursement in Section 8, effective as of the Closing, each Party (a “Releasing Party”) hereby releases, acquits and forever discharges, and shall cause its relevant Affiliates to, release, acquit and forever discharge, the Party and its Affiliates and Representatives, from any and all claims, obligations, liabilities, losses or other costs or expenses, liquidated or unliquidated, fixed or contingent, in law, equity, or otherwise, and whether presently known or unknown, relating to, based on, related to or arising out of its ownership of the Target Company or the operations of the Target Company, in each case, prior to the Closing. Each Releasing Party expressly waives and shall cause its relevant Affiliates to waive, the benefits of any statutory provision or common law rule that provides, in sum or substance, that this release does not extend to claims that a Party does not know or expect to exist in its favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by it, would have materially affected its settlement with the other Party.

PRODUCT RECALL REIMBURSEMENT

For three (3) years after the Closing (the “Reimbursement Period”), Adient Asia hereby agrees to reimburse Yanfeng against 49.99% of any and all losses, liabilities, damages, costs, fees, charges, expenses, fines actually paid by YFAS during the Reimbursement Period that is the direct result of any Specified Product Recall publicly announced prior to the end of the Reimbursement Period (such losses, liabilities, damages, costs, fees, charges, expenses, fines actually paid, “Product Recall Losses” and such 49.99% of any Product Recall Losses, the “Adient Reimbursement Amount”); provided that Adient Asia shall not be liable under this Section 8 for any Adient Reimbursement Amount to the extent that the facts, matters or circumstances giving rise to such Adient Reimbursement Amount (a) arise from or principally relate to a breach of the representations and warranties made by Yanfeng in Section 6.4 and (b) do not arise from or principally relate to a breach of the representations and warranties made by Adient Asia in Section 6.4.

In order for Yanfeng to duly make a valid claim for reimbursement under this Section 8, Yanfeng must (promptly, but in no event more than ten (10) Business Days following the first date on which Yanfeng has become aware of any claim or any facts, matters or circumstances of a potential claim for reimbursement under this Section 8) provide written notice to Adient Asia, which notice shall set forth a description in reasonable detail of the basis of such claim or potential claim, a description of the facts and circumstances giving rise to such claim or potential claim, the estimated Adient Reimbursement Amount and reasonable supporting documentation of the foregoing and such information in the possession of Yanfeng, YFAS or their Affiliates as may be necessary for Adient Asia to assess whether the limitations in Section 8.4 have been satisfied or do not apply (for the avoidance of doubt, such assessment is not binding on the Parties until there is a Final Determination in connection therewith) (such written notice given by Yanfeng, a “Notice of Claim”). Yanfeng shall cooperate with and provide to Adient Asia such information under Yanfeng’s control as Adient Asia may reasonably request for the purposes of determining the validity of the allegations made in the Notice of Claim and shall keep Adient Asia reasonably and promptly informed of factual and procedural developments (including additional information which may come under Yanfeng’s control) in connection therewith. For the avoidance of doubt, Yanfeng hereby acknowledges and agrees that any Notice of Claim must be actually received by Adient Asia prior to the end of the Reimbursement Period and Adient Asia acknowledges and agrees that any Notice of Claim received prior to the end of the Reimbursement Period shall not thereafter be barred by the end of the Reimbursement Period until a final resolution shall have been made with respect to the relevant claims therein.

In the event of the assertion or commencement by any Person (including a Governmental Body) of any claim or proceeding which may result in any Adient Reimbursement Amount (a “Third Party Claim”), Yanfeng shall or shall cause YFAS to (a) provide a Notice of Claim to Adient Asia in accordance with Section 8.2 (including with respect to timing, information and documentation), (b) proceed to defend such claim or proceeding in a diligent manner with reputable counsel with reasonably adequate experience in Specified Product Recall litigation matters and notified to Adient Asia; (c) make available to Adient Asia any non-privileged documents and materials in the possession of Yanfeng, YFAS or their Affiliates that may be reasonably necessary to the defense of such claim or proceeding; (d) keep Adient Asia informed of all material developments and events relating to such claim or proceeding; and (e) provide Adient Asia a reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense of such claim or proceeding. None of Yanfeng or any of its Affiliates or Representatives may settle, adjust or compromise such claim or proceeding without the prior written consent of Adient Asia (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). If Yanfeng or YFAS fails to assume the defense of such claim or proceeding within ten (10) Business Days after the commencement of such claim or proceeding, Yanfeng must notify Adient Asia thereof in writing within such ten (10) Business Day period and, upon receipt of such notice, Adient Asia may assume the defense of such claim or proceeding and (i) all expenses relating to the defense of such claim or proceeding (whether or not incurred by Adient Asia) reasonably incurred shall be borne and reimbursed exclusively by Yanfeng; and (ii) Yanfeng, YFAS and their Affiliates shall make available to Adient Asia any documents and materials in its possession or control that may be reasonably necessary to the defense of such claim or proceeding. In such case, after consulting with Yanfeng, Adient Asia shall have the right to settle, adjust or compromise such claim or proceeding other than any settlement that would result in (A) the imposition of a consent order, injunction or decree that would materially restrict the future activity or conduct of Yanfeng or any of its Affiliates or (B) a finding or admission of a violation of Law, in which case Yanfeng’s consent is required (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

Limits on Reimbursement

Yanfeng shall not assert any monetary claim for reimbursement pursuant to this Section 8 where the Adient Reimbursement Amount incurred by it does not in each individual instance exceed RMB 6,500,000 (the “Per Claim Amount”).

Adient Asia shall not have any liability in respect of any Adient Reimbursement Amount (a) to the extent the aggregate amount of Product Recall Losses exceeds the Cap Amount, (b) unless and until the aggregate Product Recall Losses exceed RMB 65,000,000 (the “Basket Amount”), in which case Adient Asia shall, subject to the provisions of this Section 8, be liable for the aggregate amount of Adient Reimbursement Amount with respect to such Product Recall Losses and not only the excess or (c) that arise from any individual item, occurrence, circumstance, act or omission (or series of related items, occurrences, circumstances, acts or omissions) unless and until the aggregate amount of Adient Reimbursement Amount resulting therefrom exceeds the Per Claim Amount, nor shall any Adient Reimbursement Amount excluded pursuant to this clause (c) be taken into account for purposes of determining whether the Basket Amount has been exceeded. The “Cap Amount” shall be equal to RMB 650,000,000.

Yanfeng shall procure that all reasonable steps are taken and all reasonable assistance is given to avoid or mitigate any Product Recall Losses it may suffer in consequence of any Specified Product Recall or any fact, matter, event or circumstance likely to give rise to any Adient Reimbursement Amount including with respect to any products YFAS sourced from a Third Party. YFAS will use reasonable best efforts to pursue a recovery of any Product Recall Losses from any relevant Third Party supplier. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, after Yanfeng acquires Knowledge of any fact or circumstance that results in or reasonably would be expected to result in any Product Recall Loss, Yanfeng shall notify Adient Asia promptly and implement reasonable actions for the purposes of mitigating the possible Product Recall Losses arising therefrom.

Any payment made by Adient Asia to Yanfeng pursuant to this Section 8 in respect of any claim will be net of 49.99% of (a) any insurance proceeds reasonably available to Yanfeng and its Affiliates and (b) any Product Recall Losses recovered from any Third Party in respect of such claim (less any costs actually incurred in obtaining any such insurance recovery or loss recovery). If Yanfeng or any of its Affiliates, at any time, receives any amounts under applicable insurance policies or from any Third Party with respect to any Product Recall Losses subsequent to an reimbursement payment by Adient Asia pursuant to this Section 8, then the Adient Reimbursement Amount to be recovered by Yanfeng shall be recalculated, taking into account this Section 8.6, as if such amounts had been received by Yanfeng or its Affiliates prior to the collection of any Adient Reimbursement Amount under this Agreement and any excess Adient Reimbursement Amount previously collected after such recalculation shall be repaid to Adient Asia.

YFAS shall not be entitled to recover from Adient Asia (a) any Adient Reimbursement Amount arising in connection with or with respect to the reimbursement provisions in this Section 8, unless the Product Recall Loss to which such Adient Reimbursement Amount relate (x) were actually incurred by YFAS as a direct economic result of any Specified Product Recall upon which such Product Recall Loss are based, and (y) can be proved with reasonable certainty, or (b) any special, punitive, consequential or exemplary damages or damage to reputation or like Product Recall Losses. Yanfeng shall not be entitled to recover damages or obtain payment, reimbursement, restitution or indemnity more than once in respect of any liability, loss, cost, shortfall, damage, deficiency, breach or other set of circumstances which gives rise to more than one claim under this Agreement other than in the event of fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of Adient or any of its Affiliates.

Adient Asia shall pay to Yanfeng, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account or accounts designated by Yanfeng to receive such payment, the amount of any Adient Reimbursement Amount for which it is liable hereunder no later than thirty (30) days following any Final Determination of such Adient Reimbursement Amount and Adient Asia’s liability therefor. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall Yanfeng have the right to setoff any payment due to Adient Asia under this Agreement or any Definitive Agreement for any Adient Reimbursement Amount.

Reimbursement of Yanfeng under this Section 8 is its and its Affiliates sole and exclusive remedy against Adient Asia or any of its Affiliates with respect to any Specified Product Recall, of any kind or nature other than in the event of fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of Adient or any of its Affiliates.

This Agreement and all matters, claims, controversies, disputes, suits, actions or proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, including all rights of the Parties (whether sounding in contract, tort, common or statutory law, equity or otherwise) in connection therewith, shall be interpreted, construed and governed by and in accordance with, and enforced pursuant to, the Laws of Hong Kong without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of Hong Kong or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Law of any jurisdiction other than those of Hong Kong.

The Parties agree to negotiate in good faith to resolve any dispute, controversy, difference or claim among them arising out of, relating to, or concerning the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby (including its existence, validity or termination) (the “Dispute”). If the negotiations do not resolve the Dispute to the reasonable satisfaction of all Parties within 60 days, Section 10.12.3 shall apply.

Each of the Parties irrevocably (i) agrees that any Dispute arising out of, relating to, or concerning the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby (whether sounding in contract, tort, common or statutory law, equity or otherwise), shall be referred to and resolved by arbitration to be held in Hong Kong which shall be administered by the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (“HKIAC”) in accordance with the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre Administered Arbitration Rules in force at the time the Notice of Arbitration is submitted (“Arbitration Rules”), (ii) waives, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such arbitration, and (iii) submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of Hong Kong in any such arbitration. There shall be three arbitrators, selected in accordance with the Arbitration Rules, and at least one arbitrator shall be qualified to practice Hong Kong Law. The arbitration shall be conducted in English and Chinese. The decision of the arbitration tribunal shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties to the arbitration. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Parties waive their right to any form of appeal of any award. Judgment may be entered on the arbitration tribunal’s decision in any court having jurisdiction. The Parties to the arbitration shall each pay an equal share of the costs and expenses of such arbitration, and each Party shall separately pay for its respective counsel fees and expenses; provided, however, that the prevailing Party in any such arbitration shall be entitled to recover from the non-prevailing party its reasonable counsel fees and expenses. The Parties acknowledge and agree that, in addition to contract damages, the arbitrators may award provisional and final equitable relief, including injunctions and specific performance.
