Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, to the extent that any sale, conveyance, transfer, assignment, sublease, sublicense, or delivery (each a “Transfer” and the term “Transferred” as used herein shall have a meaning correlative to the foregoing), or any attempted Transfer of any Contract, Intellectual Property or other asset, property or right that would be a Transferred Asset, or any claim, right or benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom (collectively, the “Interests”), would constitute a breach under such Interest or a violation of any applicable Laws, or such Interest is not capable of being Transferred without any third party Consent which has not been obtained by (or does not remain in full force and effect at) the Closing, neither this Agreement nor any Ancillary Agreement shall constitute a Transfer or an attempted Transfer thereof, unless and until such Interest (a “Retained Interest”) can be Transferred in accordance with Section 1.2 without such a breach or violation of Laws or such Consent is obtained, at which time such Retained

Page 14

Interest shall be deemed to be Transferred in accordance with Section 1.2, whereupon it shall cease to be a Retained Interest, it being acknowledged and agreed that the Closing shall proceed without the Transfer of such Retained Interest unless such failure causes a failure of any of the conditions to Closing set forth in Article 8, in which event the Closing shall proceed only if the failed condition is waived by the party entitled to the benefit thereof.

(b)

Following the Closing, subject to Section 6.5, Seller Parent and Purchaser shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any required third party Consent to the Transfer of any Retained Interest (which shall not include any obligation of Sellers or any of their Affiliates to pay any consideration therefor, agree to relinquish or modify any rights in exchange therefor or make any commitment or incur any Liability in connection therewith) and pending such Consent (i) Seller Parent and Purchaser shall cooperate in any reasonable and lawful arrangements (that do not violate the terms of the relevant Retained Interest) designed to provide to Purchaser the benefits, and for Purchaser to assume the burdens, of such Retained Interest, in which case Purchaser shall promptly pay or satisfy the corresponding Liabilities to the extent Purchaser would have been responsible therefor if such Retained Interest had been transferred to Purchaser at the Closing, (ii) Seller Parent shall hold, or cause the relevant Seller to hold, for and pay to Purchaser in the ordinary course all income, proceeds and other monies received by Sellers in connection with their use of any Retained Interests (net of any Taxes and any other costs imposed upon Sellers or their Affiliates) in connection with the arrangements under this Section 1.5 and enforce, at the request of Purchaser, any rights of Sellers arising from such Retained Interest against the issuer thereof or the other party or parties thereto (including the right to elect to terminate any such Retained Interest in accordance with the terms thereof upon the advice of Purchaser). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller Parent shall promptly reimburse Purchaser for fifty percent (50%) of out-of-pocket costs incurred by Purchaser in connection with obtaining consents under Contracts with customers and suppliers of the Business, to the extent required in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and not obtained as of the Closing Date, up to an aggregate amount of such reimbursements not to exceed $500,000. Purchaser shall promptly provide to Seller Parent and Seller Parent shall promptly provide to Purchaser such assistance as may be reasonably required for each to meet their obligations on a timely basis under any Contract or in relation to any Retained Interest.

(c)

Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that to the extent that Purchaser or any of its Affiliates are allowed the benefits or use of any Retained Interest pursuant to this Section 1.5 while any Consent relating thereto has not been obtained, Purchaser shall be responsible for and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Seller Indemnified Parties from and against, and shall pay to the relevant Seller Indemnified Party promptly upon receipt of any invoice from a Seller Indemnified Party, all Losses incurred by any Seller Indemnified Party under or in relation to

Page 15

any such Retained Interest (including with respect to any breach, or alleged breach, of such Retained Interest or any damage to such Retained Interest by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or as a result of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates having the benefit or use of any such Retained Interest while any Consent has not been obtained, except to the extent such Losses constitute Excluded Liabilities hereunder).

2.	PAYMENT AND ADJUSTMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE; ALLOCATION AND REIMBURSEMENTS.

2.1	Purchase Price.

Page 18

(a)	The aggregate initial purchase price (the “Initial Purchase Price”) to be paid by Purchaser in consideration for the Equity Interests and the Transferred Assets and the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities shall be an amount equal to:

(i)

One Hundred Fifty Five Million Dollars ($155,000,000);

(ii)

plus the amount of the difference between the Estimated Spent Capex and the Target Spent Capex if the Estimated Spent Capex is more than the Target Spent Capex or minus the amount of such difference if the Estimated Spent Capex is less than the Target Spent Capex;

(iii)

minus the amount of Estimated Closing Date Net Debt if the Estimated Closing Date Net Debt is a positive number, or plus the absolute value of the Estimated Closing Date Net Debt if the Estimated Closing Date Net Debt is a negative number; and

(iv)

plus the amount of the difference between the Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital and the Target Net Working Capital if the Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital is more than the Target Net Working Capital or minus the amount of such difference if the Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital is less than the Target Net Working Capital.

The Initial Purchase Price shall be subject to adjustment as hereinafter set forth in Section 2.2.

(b)

No later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Seller Parent shall prepare and deliver to Purchaser a statement (the “Initial Closing Statement”) setting forth Seller Parent’s good faith calculation of the estimated amounts of Estimated Spent Capex, Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital, Estimated Closing Date Net Debt and the Initial Purchase Price, together with reasonable supporting detail with respect to the calculations included therein. The Initial Closing Statement shall be prepared in accordance with the Specified Accounting Principles. Purchaser shall have the right to object in good faith to the amounts set forth in the Initial Closing Statement within five (5) Business Days after the delivery of the Initial Closing Statement to Purchaser. Seller Parent shall in good faith consider the objections, if any, of Purchaser to the Initial Closing Statement and, if Seller Parent determines, in its discretion, that changes to the Initial Closing Statement are appropriate, Seller Parent shall re-issue the Initial Closing Statement no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that Seller Parent’s decision not to reissue the Initial Closing Statement shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement for purposes of Article 8 hereof).

(c)

At the Closing, Purchaser shall pay the Initial Purchase Price set forth on the Initial Closing Statement to Seller Parent, for itself as a Seller and as agent for the other Sellers, by a wire transfer of immediately available funds in Dollars to a bank account to be designated in writing by Seller Parent not less than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date.

Page 19

2.2	Post-Closing Adjustment.

(a)

Not later than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to Seller Parent a statement (the “Proposed Closing Statement”), setting forth the Purchaser’s good faith calculation of the actual amounts of Spent Capex, Closing Date Net Working Capital and Closing Date Net Debt, along with a calculation of the Purchase Price based on such amounts, together with reasonable supporting detail with respect to the calculations included therein. Purchaser agrees to prepare the Proposed Closing Statement strictly in accordance with the Specified Accounting Principles (in respect of the calculation of all items required to be set forth in the Proposed Closing Statement other than Spent Capex) and the definitions in this Agreement relating thereto.

(b)

Following delivery of the Proposed Closing Statement to Seller Parent, Purchaser agrees to provide Seller Parent and its accountants and representatives, at no cost to Sellers, access to the properties, personnel, books and records of the Business to the extent reasonably requested by Seller Parent and will cause appropriate personnel of Purchaser and the Business to provide reasonable assistance to Seller Parent and its representatives, at no cost to Sellers, for the purpose of reviewing the Proposed Closing Statement. Purchaser shall, at no cost to Sellers, permit Seller Parent’s accountants to review and make copies of all work papers used to support account balances in the Proposed Closing Statement.

(c)

Unless Seller Parent notifies Purchaser in writing that Seller Parent disagrees with any aspect of the Proposed Closing Statement (a “Notice of Disagreement”) within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof, the Proposed Closing Statement shall be conclusive and binding on Seller Parent and Purchaser. Any Notice of Disagreement delivered by Seller Parent must provide reasonable detail with respect to the items and amounts with which Seller Parent disagrees in the Proposed Closing Statement. Any items not disputed in the Notice of Disagreement shall be binding upon the parties.

(d)	Any disputed items set forth in the Notice of Disagreement shall be resolved as follows:

(i)

During the thirty (30) day period following delivery of a Notice of Disagreement (the “Resolution Period”), Seller Parent and Purchaser shall first seek in good faith to resolve such disputed items. If all such disputed items are so resolved they shall be deemed binding as so resolved and, at such time, the Proposed Closing Statement as modified to reflect such resolution, shall be deemed the Final Closing Statement.

Page 20

(ii)

If any disputed items are not resolved during the Resolution Period, either party may at any time until the date that is thirty (30) days after the end of the Resolution Period (the “Final Date”) cause all (but not less than all) such unresolved disputed items to be submitted to the Accounting Firm for final determination, by providing written notice of such election to the other party (a “Submission Notice”); provided, however, that, it is expressly agreed that no objection may be raised and no adjustment may be proposed to any such entry or item in a Submission Notice except on grounds that (A) in respect of any entry or item other than Spent Capex, such item or entry has not been calculated in accordance with Specified Accounting Principles and the definitions in this Agreement relating thereto or (B) in respect of Spent Capex, the calculation of the amount of Spent Capex (and not, for the avoidance of doubt, the quality or nature of any item of Capex) has not been calculated in accordance with the definition thereof. If, by the end of the Final Date, there still exist one or more such unresolved disputed items but neither party shall have delivered a Submission Notice to the other party, the calculation of all such unresolved disputed items and the Purchase Price as reflected on the Notice of Disagreement shall be deemed final and binding on the parties and, at such time, the Proposed Closing Statement as modified to reflect such resolution shall be deemed the Final Closing Statement.

(iii)

The parties shall instruct the Accounting Firm to determine the disputed items set forth in any Submission Notice in accordance with the definitions thereof and, in respect of any item or entry other than Spent Capex, in accordance with the Specified Accounting Principles and, subject to Section 2.2(d)(iv), to make only such revisions or amendments as may be required to the Proposed Closing Statement such that the Final Closing Statement accurately reflects Spent Capex, Closing Date Net Working Capital and Closing Date Net Debt, and the resulting Purchase Price, as prepared in accordance with the Specified Accounting Principles in the case of all of the foregoing other than Spent Capex. Seller Parent and Purchaser shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Accounting Firm to render a determination as to such disputed items and the resulting Purchase Price, along with a statement of reasons therefor, within 30 days after the engagement of the Accounting Firm (as evidenced by its written acceptance by facsimile or otherwise to the parties) or a reasonable time thereafter, and, absent fraud or manifest error, such determination of the Accounting Firm shall be final and binding upon Seller Parent and Purchaser. Seller Parent and Purchaser shall provide the Accounting Firm, without charge, access to information and representatives as reasonably requested by the Accounting Firm to the extent required for the determination of the Final Closing Statement.

Page 21

(iv)

The scope of the Accounting Firm’s determination shall be limited to whether the calculations of (i) the amounts of the items required to be set forth in the Proposed Closing Statement were calculated strictly in accordance with the definitions in this Agreement relating thereto and (ii) Closing Date Net Working Capital and Closing Date Net Debt set forth in the Proposed Closing Statement were performed strictly in accordance with the Specified Accounting Principles. The determination of any item in dispute cannot, however, be in excess of, nor less than, the greatest or lowest value, respectively, claimed for that particular item in the Proposed Closing Statement, in the case of Seller Parent, or in the Notice of Disagreement, in the case of Purchaser.

(v)

The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be shared equally by Seller Parent and Purchaser.

(e)	No later than five (5) Business Days after the Proposed Closing Statement is deemed the Final Closing Statement pursuant to this Section 2.2:

(i)

If the Final Closing Date Net Debt (A) is more than the Estimated Closing Date Net Debt, Seller Parent shall pay to Purchaser the difference or (B) is less than the Estimated Closing Date Net Debt, Purchaser shall pay to Seller Parent, on behalf of itself and the other Sellers, the difference;

(ii)

If the Final Closing Date Net Working Capital (A) is less than the Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital, Seller Parent shall pay to Purchaser the difference or (B) is more than the Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital, Purchaser shall pay to Seller Parent, on behalf of itself and the other Sellers, the difference; and

(iii)

If the Final Spent Capex (A) is less than the Estimated Spent Capex, Seller Parent shall pay to Purchaser the difference or (B) is more than the Estimated Spent Capex, Purchaser shall pay to Seller Parent, on behalf of itself and the other Sellers, the difference.

Any amount to be paid pursuant to this Section 2.2(e) shall be (i) increased by interest thereon at the rate of five percent (5%) per annum from (but excluding) the Closing Date through and including the date of payment based on a 365-day year; (ii) made by a wire transfer of immediately available funds in Dollars to a bank account designated in writing by the party entitled to receive payment (such designation to be made at least two (2) Business Days prior to such payment) and (iii) treated as an adjustment to the Initial Purchase Price for Tax reporting purposes. The parties shall net the payments, if any, to be made pursuant to Sections 2.2(e)(i) and 2.2(e)(ii) such that only one party is required to deliver amounts required to be paid under this Section 2.2(e).

Page 22

2.3

Allocation of Purchase Price. The portion of the Initial Purchase Price allocated to the Equity Interests in each of the Transferred Entities (other than Equity Interests in Transferred Entities owned by other Transferred Entities) and to the other Transferred Assets (and among the Transferred Assets) of each Seller (net of Assumed Liabilities) shall be as set forth on Schedule 2.3B, which Schedule 2.3B shall be agreed between Purchaser and Seller Parent within a reasonable time prior to the Closing, and attached hereto at such time. Schedule 2.3B shall be prepared based upon and using the methodologies contained in Schedule 2.3A attached hereto, with such adjustments thereto as the Purchaser and Seller Parent may agree. A proposed draft of Schedule 2.3B shall be prepared by Seller Parent and delivered to Purchaser at least 30 days prior to the Closing. Purchaser shall notify Seller Parent of any proposed revisions to Schedule 2.3 at least 20 days prior to the Closing. If Seller Parent and Purchaser are unable to agree on a final version of Schedule 2.3B or any revisions thereto at least 15 days prior to the Closing, any dispute shall be resolved pursuant to procedures comparable to the procedures applicable under Section 2.2(d)(ii). Following the Closing and the determination of the Final Closing Statement, the parties shall adjust Schedule 2.3B, using the same methodology as that used in the agreed Schedule 2.3B to reflect the allocation of the Purchase Price (as adjusted under Section 2.2) and the Assumed Liabilities (to the extent treated as liabilities for United States federal income tax purposes) among the Equity Interests in each of the Transferred Entities (other than Equity Interests in Transferred Entities owned by other Transferred Entities) and the other Transferred Assets (and among the Transferred Assets) of each Seller (“Revised Schedule 2.3B”). Revised Schedule 2.3B as finally agreed upon shall be binding on the parties for federal, state, local, foreign and other Tax reporting purposes, including filings on Internal Revenue Service Form 8594, and no party will assert or maintain a position inconsistent with this allocation.

2.4	Romanian Investment Reimbursements.

(a)

From and after the Closing, promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) after receipt of any Romanian Investment Reimbursement by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including Honeywell Romania), Purchaser shall forward, or cause Honeywell Romania or the relevant Affiliate to forward, to Seller Parent (or an Affiliate thereof as instructed by Seller Parent) by a wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account designated by Seller Parent, an amount in cash equal to such Romanian Investment Reimbursement.

(b)

Following Closing until such time as all Romanian Investment Reimbursements have been fully paid by the applicable Governmental Authorities, Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Affiliates (including Honeywell Romania) to, (i) comply with their respective obligations under the Romanian Investment Scheme (including any applications and investment plans submitted thereunder); (ii) use their commercially reasonable efforts to seek payment from the applicable Governmental Authorities of the Romanian Investment Reimbursements and keep Seller Parent reasonably informed as to developments relating thereto and (iii) promptly notify Seller Parent in writing of any Romanian Investment

Page 23

Reimbursement received by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including Honeywell Romania). Sellers shall be entitled (at their own expense) from time to time on reasonable notice to Purchaser, to examine, and have their representatives (including their accountants) examine, during normal business hours, the books and records of the Business and Honeywell Romania to the extent reasonably requested to verify Purchaser’s compliance with this Section 2.4.

(c)

In the event that Purchaser or one of its Affiliates is required to make any payments to any Governmental Authority in respect of or as reimbursement of any Romanian Investment Reimbursements paid to Honeywell Romania or its Affiliates, Purchaser shall notify Seller Parent in writing within ten (10) Business Days of the receipt by Purchaser of the repayment request, and if such requirement has not resulted from a breach or failure to perform by Purchaser of its obligations under Section 2.4(b) or by Purchaser or its Affiliates (including Honeywell Romania following Closing) of any obligations under the Romanian Investment Scheme or Romanian Investment Aid Documentation, Seller Parent shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account designated by Purchaser an amount in cash equal to the amount of such required payments not later than ten (10) Business Days following receipt of such notice, and Purchaser shall promptly remit, or cause its Affiliate to remit, such amount to the applicable Governmental Authority.

(d)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, with respect to the reimbursement requests not yet filed as of the Closing by Honeywell Romania with the applicable Governmental Authorities for any eligible expenses incurred by Honeywell Romania prior to Closing, Seller Parent and Purchaser shall, subject to applicable Law, provide Purchaser with meaningful input into the preparation of reimbursement requests, and Honeywell Romania will file them with the applicable Governmental Authorities. Purchaser and Honeywell Romania assume no liability or obligation under this Agreement with respect to the acceptance by the applicable Governmental Authorities of such reimbursement requests, other than providing the information reasonably requested by the applicable Governmental Authorities. Any amounts paid to Honeywell Romania by the applicable Governmental Authorities under these reimbursement requests to the extent the same constitute Romanian Investment Reimbursements shall be paid to Seller Parent in accordance with Section 2.4(e). For the avoidance of doubt, Purchaser shall not be required to remit to Seller Parent any amount received pursuant to the Romanian Investment Scheme that does not constitute a Romanian Investment Reimbursement.

(e)

Any payments under this Section 2.4 shall be made in Dollars, and any amount comprising any Romanian Investment Reimbursement that is valued in a currency other than Dollars shall be converted into Dollars on the basis of the currency to Dollar relevant exchange rate published by the National Bank of Romania on the date that is ten (10) Business Days before the actual date of payment hereunder. The parties agree that any payment pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

Page 24

2.5

Earn-Out.

(a)

As additional consideration (the “Earn-Out Consideration”) for the Equity Interests and Transferred Assets, Purchaser shall pay to Seller Parent (on behalf of Sellers) an amount, if any, equal to: (i) Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00) if the Combined Adjusted EBITDA Margin exceeds five percent (5%); and (ii) an additional Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00) if the Combined Adjusted EBITDA Margin exceeds seven percent (7%) (it being understood that the amounts set forth in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) are cumulative and not alternative), in each case in accordance with this Section 2.5. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Earn-Out Consideration payable to Sellers pursuant to this Section 2.5 exceed Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00) in the aggregate (the “Maximum Earn-Out Consideration Amount”).

(b)

Following the Closing, Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Affiliates (including the Transferred Entities) to, (i) maintain adequate financial records for, and allocate costs to, the Combined Business in accordance with Purchaser’s internal reporting policies and requirements and US GAAP; and (ii) not take or omit to take any actions with a purpose or intention to avoid, reduce, or otherwise frustrate the payment of the Earn-Out Consideration.

(c)

With respect to each of Fiscal Year 2016 and Fiscal Year 2017, no later than 10 days after the filing of Purchaser’s annual report on Form 10-K with the SEC for such fiscal year or, if Purchaser is no longer required to file such report or if such report is not timely filed by Purchaser, no later than 75 days after the end of such fiscal year, Purchaser shall prepare (or cause to be prepared) and deliver to Seller Parent financial statements (the “Earn-Out Financial Statements”) prepared in accordance with US GAAP consistently applied and consisting of a balance sheet and statements of income, changes in stockholders equity and cash flows of the Combined Business as of the end of, and for, such fiscal year, together with calculations of (i) in respect of the Earn-Out Financial Statements delivered for Fiscal Year 2016, the Combined Adjusted EBITDA and Combined Revenue for Fiscal Year 2016 and (ii) in respect of the Earn-Out Financial Statements delivered for Fiscal Year 2017, the Combined Adjusted EBITDA and Combined Revenue for Fiscal Year 2017 and the resulting calculation of the Combined Adjusted EBITDA Margin. Following delivery of any Earn-Out Financial Statements to Seller Parent, Purchaser agrees to provide Seller Parent and its accountants and representatives access to the books and records of the Combined Business to the extent reasonably requested by Seller Parent in connection with its review of the Earn-Out Financial Statements and will cause appropriate personnel of Purchaser and the Combined Business to provide reasonable assistance to Seller Parent and its representatives for the purpose of reviewing the Earn-Out Financial Statements. Purchaser shall, at no cost to Purchaser, permit Seller Parent’s accountants to review and make copies of all work papers used to support account balances in the Earn-Out Financial Statements.

Page 25

(d)

In the event that Seller Parent disputes any of the Earn-Out Financial Statements delivered pursuant to Section 2.5(c), Seller Parent shall deliver a notice (an “Earn-Out Dispute Notice”) to such effect no later than forty-five (45) Business Days after delivery of the Earn-Out Financial Statements for Fiscal Year 2017 (it being understood that Seller Parent shall be entitled to object to the Earn-Out Financial Statements for Fiscal Year 2016 and discuss the same with Purchaser prior to such date without prejudice to its rights hereunder), and any such dispute shall be resolved under the procedures set forth in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (v) of Section 2.2(d) of this Agreement (with the provisions of such Section relating to disputed items set forth in a Notice of Disagreement applying mutatis mutandis to disputed items set forth in an Earn-Out Dispute Notice, except that references to Specified Accounting Principles shall be deemed to refer to US GAAP consistently applied).

(e)

If Seller Parent is entitled to payment of any Earn-Out Consideration pursuant to this Section 2.5, Purchaser shall pay to Seller Parent (on behalf of all Sellers) an amount in cash equal to the applicable Earn-Out Consideration (i) within five (5) Business Days after expiration of the forty-five (45) Business Day period after delivery of the Earn-Out Financial Statements for Fiscal Year 2017 if Seller Parent does not deliver an Earn-Out Dispute Notice within such forty-five (45) Business Day period or (ii) within five (5) Business Days of the final resolution of all disputed items set forth in an Earn-Out Dispute Notice delivered pursuant to Section 2.5(d), in each case by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Seller Parent.

(f)

If an Earn-Out Acceleration Event occurs following the Closing Date, Purchaser shall pay, or cause to be paid, to Seller Parent (on behalf of all Sellers) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Seller Parent, an amount in cash equal to the Maximum Earn-Out Consideration Amount no later than five (5) Business Days following the occurrence of the applicable Earn-Out Acceleration Event. Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, promptly notify Seller Parent in writing promptly following the entry into an agreement or other understanding in respect of an Earn-Out Acceleration Event.

3.	REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLER PARENT.

Seller Parent hereby represents and warrants to Purchaser, except as set forth on (but subject to Section 12.8) the Disclosure Schedule, as follows:

Page 26

3.1	Due Organization.

Each of the Sellers and the Transferred Entities is a legal entity of the type described in Schedule 3.1, duly organized, validly existing and, with respect to entities organized within the US and any other jurisdiction outside the US in which the concept of good standing or its functional equivalent is applicable, in good standing or its functional equivalent under the Laws of the jurisdiction indicated in Schedule 3.1. Each of the Sellers and the Transferred Entities is duly qualified to transact business in any jurisdiction where the ownership or leasing of the Transferred Assets and the conduct of the Business require it to be so qualified except where the failure to be so qualified would not, individually or in the aggregate with other such failures, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Sellers and the Transferred Entities have all requisite corporate power and authority to conduct the Business as it is now being conducted by them and to enter into and perform their respective obligations under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements to which they are contemplated to be parties.

3.2	Authority.

The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and each of the Ancillary Agreements contemplated to be executed and delivered at the Closing by Seller Parent, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of Seller Parent. The execution, delivery and performance of each of the Ancillary Agreements contemplated to be executed and delivered at the Closing will, as of the execution thereof by each of the Sellers (other than Seller Parent), and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of such Seller. Upon execution by each relevant Seller, this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement to which Sellers are a party shall have been duly executed and delivered by such Seller and shall be enforceable against such Seller in accordance with its terms except to the extent that (i) such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar Laws relating to creditors’ rights generally and is subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (ii) specific performance may not be available in certain jurisdictions outside the US (the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), collectively, the “Enforceability Exceptions”).

3.3	Transferred Entities; Title to Equity Interests.

The copies of the organizational documents of the Transferred Entities, which have been made available to Purchaser, are true, accurate and complete in all material respects. For each Transferred Entity, Schedule 3.3 sets forth (a) the nature of the equity interest held by Sellers or, as applicable, a Transferred Entity, (b) the number of such equity interests that are outstanding, and (c) the number and percentage of the outstanding equity interests held by Sellers (each such equity interest, an “Equity Interest”). Except as set forth in Schedule 3.3, the Equity Interests constitute, and on the Closing Date will constitute, all of the issued and outstanding equity of each Transferred Entity. Upon delivery by Sellers of the Equity Interests at the Closing, good and valid title to all of the Equity Interests will pass to Purchaser (or, in the case of the Equity Interests owned by Transferred Entities, will be held by such Transferred Entities), free and clear of all

Page 27

Encumbrances, other than transfer restrictions imposed by national, federal or state securities laws, Encumbrances created by Purchaser or its Affiliates (or its or their respective officers, directors, employees or agents), or Encumbrances otherwise arising as a result of any facts or circumstances relating solely to Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (or its respective officers, directors, employees or agents). Except as set forth on Schedule 3.3, all Equity Interests have been duly issued in compliance with applicable Law, and are fully paid and nonassessable. All contributions have been made in compliance with applicable Law. There are no securities of the Transferred Entities convertible into or exchangeable for shares. There are no outstanding obligations of the Sellers or of the Transferred Entities to repurchase or otherwise acquire Equity Interests. Except as set forth in Schedule 3.3, no third party has with respect to the Equity Interests any right of first refusal, option right or other right to acquire or demand a transfer of the Equity Interests. The Equity Interests are not subject to any silent partnership or sub-participation. Except as set forth in Schedule 3.3, the Transferred Entities are not, and prior to the Closing Date will not become, a party to or subject to any contract or obligation wherein any person has a right or option to purchase or acquire any rights in any capital stock or other equity securities of the Transferred Entities. None of the Transferred Entities have or are obligated to acquire subsidiaries, participations, sub-participations or investments in the equity capital of any Person other than as set forth in Schedule 3.3.

3.4	No Conflict.

Except as set forth in Schedule 3.4, the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, will not result in (a) the breach of any term or provision of the charter, articles or certificate of incorporation or any other organizational document or bylaws of any Seller or Transferred Entity, or (b) assuming satisfaction of all Consent requirements referred to in Section 3.5, the violation by any Seller or Transferred Entity of any Law or any injunction, order, judgment, decree or other restriction of any Governmental Authority applicable to such Seller or Transferred Entity, except in the case of clause (b) above, for such breaches or violations, if any, which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

3.5	Governmental Consents.

Except as set forth in Schedule 3.5, no Consent of any Governmental Authority is required to be obtained or made by any of the Sellers in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, other than: (a) as contemplated by Section 6.4(a), (b) Consents which, if not so made or obtained by Sellers would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to be material to the Business if not received; and (c) as may be necessary as a result of any facts or circumstances relating to solely Purchaser or any of their Affiliates (or its or their respective officers, directors, employees or agents).

Page 28

(c)

use their commercially reasonable efforts consistent with past practices to retain their Employees (it being agreed that nothing herein shall require payment to such employees outside the ordinary course or prohibit Sellers or the Transferred Entities from terminating the employment of any Employee if a Seller or a Transferred Entity deems it appropriate under the circumstances to do so);

not make or grant any general wage or salary increase with respect to their employees or make any material increase in the payments of benefits with respect to their employees under any bonus, insurance, pension or other employee benefit plan or program, in each case other than in the ordinary course of business or pursuant to existing agreements or commitments or benefit plans or as required by Law;

Seller Parent shall meet with Purchaser from time to time as Purchaser may reasonably request, upon reasonable advance notice and during regular business hours, to provide Purchaser with such information as Purchaser may reasonably request, with respect to the status of the Capex Plan.

(b)	furnish to Purchaser or its representatives, upon reasonable request, such additional financial and operating data and other information relating to the Business; and

(c)	make available to Purchaser, upon reasonable request, for inspection and review all documents, or copies thereof, listed in the Schedules hereto, and all files, records and papers pertaining to any proceedings and matters listed in the Schedules hereto.

(b)

The parties shall (i) use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to demonstrate that such transactions should not be opposed by any pertinent Governmental Authority (including, if relevant, the European Commission); and (ii) use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to cause the waiting periods applicable under any Antitrust Law to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to expire or be terminated as soon as practicable.

without limitation, defending through litigation on the merits any claim asserted in any court by any Person and by exhausting all avenues of appeal, including appealing properly any adverse decision or order by any Government Authority); and (iii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to have vacated or terminated any order, decision, stay, judgment or decree that would restrain, prevent or delay the Closing. No such proceeding or litigation shall be settled or terminated unilaterally without the written consent of Seller Parent.

(c)

Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement (it being agreed that Section 6.4(b) shall not, in and of itself, be construed so as to conflict with or supersede this Section 6.4(c)), Purchaser shall not have any obligation under this Agreement in connection with the receipt of any consents or approvals of any pertinent Governmental Authority (including under the Required Merger Control Filings), (i) to dispose of or transfer, or to cause any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates to dispose of or transfer, any assets or voting securities, or to commit to cause Seller Parent or any Seller to dispose of or transfer any assets or voting securities; (ii) to discontinue, or cause any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates to discontinue, offering any product or service, or to commit to cause Seller Parent or any Seller to discontinue offering any product or service; (iii) to license or otherwise make available, or to cause any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates to license or otherwise make available, to any Person, any technology, software or other proprietary rights, or to commit to cause Seller Parent or any Seller to license or otherwise make available to any Person any technology, software or other proprietary rights; (iv) to hold separate or cause any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates to hold separate any assets, operations, or voting securities (either before or after the Closing Date), or to commit to cause Seller Parent or any Seller to hold separate any assets, operations, or voting securities; (v) to terminate or modify, or cause any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates to terminate or modify, any existing relationships or contractual rights, or to commit to cause Seller Parent or any Seller to terminate or modify any existing relationships or contractual rights; (vi) to make or cause any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates to make any commitment (to any Governmental Entity or otherwise) regarding its future operations or the future operations of Seller Parent or any Seller, or to cause Seller Parent or any Seller to make any commitment (to any Governmental Entity or otherwise) regarding its future operations or the future operations of Seller Parent or any Seller; or (vii) to agree or commit to doing, or to cause any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates to agree or commit to doing, any of the foregoing.

(d)

Seller Parent and Purchaser shall keep each other reasonably apprised of the status of matters described in Sections 6.4(a) and 6.4(b) and shall work cooperatively and in good faith in connection with obtaining all required approvals or consents of, and making all required filings with, any Governmental Authority as provided therein, and in providing any financial or other information required in connection with such filings.

Neither Seller Parent nor Purchaser shall agree to any voluntary extension of any statutory deadline or waiting period or to any voluntary delay of the consummation of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement at the behest of any antitrust authority without the prior written consent of the other party.

6.5	Third Party Consents.

Seller Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts (which shall not include any obligation of Sellers to pay any consideration therefor or agree to relinquish or modify any rights or increase its obligations in exchange therefor) to obtain all Consents required from third parties (other than Governmental Authorities), whose Consent is required pursuant to any Material Contract or otherwise in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and Purchaser shall cooperate with Seller Parent (which shall not include any obligation of Purchaser to pay any consideration therefor or agree to relinquish or modify any rights or increase its obligations in exchange therefor) in connection with Seller Parent’s efforts to obtain such Consents.

Page 55

6.6	Public Announcements.

On and after the date hereof, Seller Parent and Purchaser shall consult with each other before issuing any press releases or otherwise making any public statements with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

(b)

From the date hereof until the Closing Date, Seller Parent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Transferred Entities to distribute their respective Retained Cash to the applicable Seller on or prior to the Closing Date to the extent permitted by, and in accordance with, Applicable Law; provided, however, that if and to the extent a German Transferred Entity is not permitted by, and in accordance with, applicable Law to distribute all or a portion of its Retained Cash, it shall be permitted to loan such Retained Cash to one or more other German Transferred Entities to enable such Retained Cash to be distributed, and any such loans between German Transferred Entities may remain outstanding as of the Closing Date.

(c)

In connection with the settlement of intercompany receivables and payables of the Transferred Entities and the distribution of Retained Cash by the Transferred Entities, at or prior to Closing Honeywell Deutschland GmbH shall issue the Promissory Note to Honeywell Bremsbelag GmbH, and the Promissory Note shall remain an asset of Honeywell Bremesbelag GmbH at and after the Closing (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Promissory Note shall not constitute Retained Cash for purposes of the calculation of Closing Date Net Debt or Estimated Closing Date Net Debt, nor shall it be taken into account in the calculation of Closing Date Net Working Capital or Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital).

(d)

From the date hereof until the Closing Date, Seller Parent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Indebtedness owed by Honeywell Chongqing to Honeywell (China) Co. Ltd. (all such Indebtedness the “China Intercompany Indebtedness”) to be capitalized or settled (whether via a capital increase or otherwise) on or prior to the Closing Date, to the extent permitted by, and in accordance with, Applicable Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to Section 6.9(e), to the extent that any China Intercompany Indebtedness is not capitalized or otherwise settled on or prior to Closing pursuant to this Section 6.9(d), the parties agree that the rights of Honeywell (China) Co. Ltd. to payment in respect of such China Intercompany Indebtedness will, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, be transferred to Purchaser (or a designated Affiliate

Page 57

thereof) and included in the Transferred Assets (and, for the avoidance of doubt, neither the right to payment in respect of such China Intercompany Indebtedness nor Honeywell Chongqing’s corresponding obligation to make such payments shall be taken into account in the calculation of Closing Date Net Debt, Estimated Closing Date Net Debt, Closing Date Net Working Capital or Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital).

(e)

If within ten (10) Business Days of the date of this Agreement, Purchaser proposes to Sellers in writing to address the China Intercompany Indebtedness at the Closing pursuant to a detailed steps plan (the “China Steps Plan”) prepared by Purchaser’s advisors and, in Sellers’ reasonable judgment, such assumption in accordance with the China Steps Plan can be effected at the Closing without (i) delaying the timing at which the Closing would otherwise occur or (ii) except to the extent that Purchaser agrees to reimburse such amount, imposing any cost or other Loss or Liability on Sellers or their Affiliates that would not otherwise be incurred in connection with the repayment of such China Intercompany Indebtedness by Honeywell Chongqing prior to Closing, then Sellers shall cause the China Intercompany Indebtedness to be addressed in accordance with the China Steps Plan and included in the Transferred Assets (and, for the avoidance of doubt, neither the right to payment in respect of such China Intercompany Indebtedness nor Honeywell Chongqing’s corresponding obligation to make such payments shall be taken into account in the calculation of Closing Date Net Debt, Estimated Closing Date Net Debt, Closing Date Net Working Capital or Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital).

6.10	Insurance.

Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that, upon Closing, Sellers shall have no obligation to maintain insurance coverage provided in relation to the Business pursuant to policies, risk funding programs or arrangements maintained by Sellers or by any of their Affiliates (whether such policies are maintained in whole or in part with third party insurers or with Sellers or their Affiliates and including any captive policies or fronting arrangements, and including any “occurrence” based insurance policies provided in relation to Sellers and their Affiliates with respect to any occurrences prior to Closing). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser and Seller Parent shall, and Seller Parent shall cause the other Sellers to, cooperate to recover under any “occurrence” based insurance policies maintained with third party insurers providing for coverage for indemnifiable Losses suffered from events or damages occurring prior to the Closing in connection with the Business and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide access to such coverage for any such Losses to the extent such coverage is available; and each party shall take, at the requesting party’s expense, all actions reasonably requested by any other party to obtain such recovery.

Page 58

6.11	Product Recall.

From and after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall have the sole right to conduct all Required Pre-Closing Product Recalls; provided, however, that neither Seller Parent nor its Affiliates shall have any Liability in respect of any such Required Pre-Closing Product Recalls (including pursuant to Section 11.1 hereof) to the extent arising out of or relating to actions taken by Purchaser that are not required by legal authorities with jurisdiction over such Required Pre-Closing Product Recall. Seller Parent shall promptly notify Purchaser if Seller Parent receives notice in writing that a recall of product of the Business sold prior to Closing or included in the Business Inventory is required.

6.12	TMD Claims.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (including Section 6.1 and Article 11 hereof), from the date hereof until the Closing, Seller Parent and its Affiliates shall be entitled to compromise or settle any and all TMD Claims in their sole and absolute discretion and any Losses payable by Seller Parent or its Affiliates in connection with such settlement shall be paid by Purchaser to Seller Parent at Closing up to an amount not exceeding the TMD Claim Cap. Nothing in this Agreement shall restrict Seller Parent from commencing and pursuing opposition proceedings at the European patent office in respect of the technology patented in EP0654616B1.

6.13	Pre-Closing Audit.

(a)	Promptly following the date hereof, Seller Parent shall:

(i)

provide Purchaser with unaudited financial information of the Business for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2013, which is reasonably sufficient to permit Purchaser to determine the periods for which financial information may be required to be furnished by Purchaser with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby pursuant to Rule 3.05(b) of Regulation S-X (the “Unaudited Financial Information”); and

(ii)

cause, at no cost to Seller Parent or its Affiliates, the financial statements of the Business for the twelve (12) month periods ended December 31, 2013 (the “2013 Financials”) to be audited in compliance with applicable SEC rules and regulations (including Regulation S-X) and US GAAP.

(b)

Purchaser shall use reasonable best efforts to determine and notify Seller Parent in writing, as promptly as possible and no later than five (5) Business Days following delivery of the Unaudited Financial Information (the “Tolling Commencement Date”), whether, in the opinion of counsel to Purchaser, financial information for the twelve (12) month periods ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012 is required to be furnished by Purchaser with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby pursuant to Rule 3.05(b) of Regulation S-X. Promptly following delivery of notice from Purchaser of the periods for which financial information is required to be so furnished (each, a “Required Financial Reporting Period”), Seller Parent shall cause, at no cost to Seller Parent or its Affiliates, the financial statements of the Business for each such Required Financial Reporting Period to be audited in compliance with applicable SEC rules and regulations (including Regulation S-X) and US GAAP.

Page 59

(c)

Seller Parent shall (i) deliver to Purchaser (A) the results of the audit of the 2013 Financials and (B) if the twelve (12) month period ended December 31, 2012 is a Required Financial Reporting Period, the results of the audit of the financial statements of the Business for such twelve (12) month period (the “2012 Financials”), no later than ninety (90) days following the date hereof; and (ii) if the twelve (12) month period ended December 31, 2011 is a Required Financial Reporting Period, deliver to Purchaser the results of the audit of the financial statements of the Business for such twelve (12) month period (the “2011 Financials” and, together with the 2013 Financials and the 2012 Financials, the “Audit Financial Statements”) no later than one hundred and twenty (120) days following the date hereof; provided, however, that, in respect of the 2012 Financials and 2011 Financials, in the event that Purchaser shall have failed to notify Seller Parent that the periods covered by such Audit Financial Statements constitute Required Financial Reporting Periods by the Tolling Commencement Date, the applicable due date for delivery of such Audit Financial Statements under this Section 6.13(c) shall be automatically extended for each day elapsed from the Tolling Commencement Date until the date upon which Seller Parent was so notified by Purchaser.

(d)

Within 60 days of the Closing Date, Seller Parent shall deliver unaudited financial statements for the latest completed interim quarterly periods preceding the Closing Date and the corresponding prior year interim quarterly periods to the extent such interim, unaudited, financial statements are required by applicable Law (in the opinion of counsel to Purchaser).

(e)

Purchaser shall not disclose (and shall keep strictly confidential) any information delivered pursuant to this Section 6.13 (including any financial statements and audit results) to any Person prior to Closing, except to the extent, and only at such time as, required by applicable Law (in the opinion of counsel to Purchaser), including, without limitation, (i) in connection any disclosure required to be made by Purchaser under or pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“34 Act Disclosure”); (ii) as part of any offer or sale of securities registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), undertaken by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (each a “Registered Offering”) or (iii) as part of any offer or sale of securities under Rule 144A of the 1933 Act undertaken by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (each a “144A Offering”), for which purpose the same disclosure requirements (including as to timing of disclosure) as would be required as part of a Registered Offering shall be deemed applicable.

Page 60

(f)

Without limiting the foregoing, Seller Parent agrees that, notwithstanding the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, Purchaser shall be permitted to include in any “34 Act Disclosure,” Registered Offering or 144A Offering or provide to banks and other financing sources in connection with bank or similar financing, such selected or summary financial information regarding the Business (including, without limitation, the revenues and EBITDA of the Business and pro-forma financial information of Purchaser and the Business on a combined basis) to the extent, and only at such times as, required by applicable Law (in the opinion of counsel to Purchaser) in respect of a Registered Offering or 144A Offering, or as may otherwise reasonably be requested by the banks in connection with bank or similar financing or by the underwriters of such Registered Offering or 144A Offering and provided that, (i) in the case of a Registered Offering or a 144A Offering, such underwriters have advised Purchaser and communicated to Seller Parent that, in their good faith professional judgment, the failure to include such information in the relevant Registered Offering or 144A Offering documents, as applicable, would be materially detrimental to the successful completion of such Registered Offering or 144A Offering documents, as applicable, on then-prevailing market terms and (ii) in the case of banks or similar financing sources, such banks or similar financing sources have entered into confidentiality arrangements with Purchaser with respect to the maintenance of confidentiality of such information on terms that are typical for such arrangements in connection with such financing.

(g)

Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and its and their respective officers, directors, employees, auditors and representatives to, at all times cooperate, at its own expense, with Seller Parent in connection with the performance of Seller Parent’s obligations under this Section 6.13. Purchaser shall be responsible for, and shall promptly reimburse Seller Parent for, all fees, costs and expenses of Seller Parent and its Affiliates in connection with Seller Parent’s compliance with this Section 6.13, including, without limitation, any costs and expenses of auditors, whether current or former auditors or auditors specifically engaged for the purpose of compliance with this Section 6.13. Seller Parent shall be entitled to control, in its sole discretion, the conduct of any audit required to be performed hereunder and the engagement of auditors in connection therewith (including such auditors’ scope of work and resources required to perform such audit).

(h)

Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that neither Seller Parent nor any of its Affiliates (nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives) have made and, and none of them shall be deemed to have made, and none of them will make, any representations or warranties of any kind or character, express or implied, either herein or otherwise, as to any information (including as to the accuracy or completeness thereof) delivered to Purchaser pursuant to this Section 6.13 or the results of any audit required to be performed hereunder.

(i)	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, at Law or in equity, Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy for Seller Parent’s breach or failure to perform any of its obligations under this Section 6.13 shall be Purchaser’s right to

Page 61

indemnification pursuant to Section 11.1(a) and subject to the limitation set forth in Section 11.4(e)(iv), and in no event shall any such breach or failure to perform (including any delay in delivering or failure to deliver any information required to be delivered hereunder), or any facts, circumstances or Losses arising out of or resulting therefrom, be or be deemed to be a condition to Closing or to the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated hereby (and any such breach or failure to perform, and any facts, circumstances or Losses arising out of or resulting therefrom, shall be disregarded for the purposes of determining whether the conditions set forth in Section 8.1 have been satisfied), nor shall Purchaser be entitled to terminate this Agreement or otherwise fail to consummate, rescind, or seek to enjoin, delay or otherwise prohibit, the transactions contemplated hereby as a result of any such breach, failure to perform, facts, circumstances or Losses.

(j)

Without prejudice to Section 6.13(i), in the event of a breach by Seller Parent of its obligation to timely deliver Audit Financial Statements pursuant to Section 6.13, the Losses recoverable by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties pursuant to Article 11 (subject to any applicable limitations therein, if any) shall include Purchaser’s increased financing costs; provided, however, that the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to recover any Losses that would not have been incurred to the extent that Purchaser, acting in a commercially reasonable manner, could have obtained less costly or equally costly financing. In the event that any such breach by Seller Parent would reasonably be expected to result in increased financing costs, Purchaser shall take reasonable steps to seek and consider in good faith alternative financing that would reasonably be expected to reduce the amount of Losses recoverable by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties under Article 11 (it being understood that nothing in this Section 6.13(j) shall obligate Purchaser or its Affiliates to incur such financing in an effort solely to reduce or mitigate such Losses).

(k)

In the event that Seller Parent is prevented or delayed in the performance of its obligations under this Section 6.13 due to a Force Majeure Event, Seller Parent shall give prompt written notice to the Purchaser of the commencement, expected duration and termination of such Force Majeure Event. During the continuation of a Force Majeure Event, Seller Parent’s nonperformance under this Section 6.13 shall be excused and the time for performance extended for the period of delay or inability to perform due to such Force Majeure Event, and Seller Parent shall have no liability hereunder (including under Article 11) in respect of such period of delay or failure to perform.

7.	EMPLOYEE AND EMPLOYEE BENEFITS MATTERS.

7.1	Scope of Article.

This Article 7 contains covenants and agreements of the parties as of and from the Closing Date with respect to:

Page 62

(a)

the status of employment of the employees employed by the Transferred Entities, whether hourly or salaried, and regardless of whether they are actively at work or absent on the Closing Date (including, without limitation, due to vacation, holiday, authorized leave of absence, illness, injury or short-term disability) (the “Transferred Entity Employees”);

(b)

the status of employment of (i) the employees employed in the Business by Sellers or their Affiliates other than the Transferred Entities (the “Asset Sale Business Entities”), whether hourly or salaried and regardless of whether they are actively at work or absent on the Closing Date (including, without limitation, due to vacation, holiday, authorized leave of absence, illness, injury or short-term disability), and (ii) former employees who claim re-instatement into their former employment with the Business (but only to the extent that such claim is confirmed by a final binding, unappealable and irrevocable ruling of a court of competent jurisdiction) (collectively, (i) and (ii) herein are defined as the “Transferred Employees” and together with the Transferred Entity Employees, as the “Employees”); and

(c)

the Benefit Plans provided for or covering the Employees and (i) former employees of Sellers or their Affiliates (other than the Transferred Entities) who terminated employment with Sellers or such Affiliates while employed in the Business or retired from the Business prior to the Closing Date and (ii) all former employees of the Transferred Entities (collectively, the “Former Employees”).

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, for the avoidance of doubt, the Transferred Employees and Former Employees shall not include any employees or former employees of Sellers and their Affiliates employed in connection with the operation of the Excluded Businesses or the Business at the Excluded Assets set forth on Schedule 7.1.

7.2	Employment and Other Employee Matters.

(a)	The following provisions shall apply with respect to the Transferred Employees:

(i)

Wherever legally permissible, as of the Closing Date, the Transferred Employees shall become employees of Purchaser (or one of its designated Affiliates) by operation of the applicable Laws or regulations of the jurisdiction in which each such Transferred Employee’s employment is located (the “National Laws,” which term shall include the EU Acquired Rights Directive, where applicable) and/or pursuant to the terms of any necessary transfer agreement or procedure relating to that jurisdiction, and the Assumed Liabilities shall include any and all Liabilities, including pension Liabilities, relating to such Transferred Employees. Purchaser shall assume the employment of all such Transferred Employees and agrees that the Contracts of employment and any contractual rights of Transferred Employees who become employees of Purchaser (or one of its

Page 63

designated Affiliates) at the Closing by operation of National Law shall continue unchanged following the Closing Date, with credit for all years of service by such Employees with Sellers, and their Affiliates where applicable, and with positions, duties, responsibilities, compensation (but not including payment or other compensation in respect or in lieu of any unvested portion under any restricted stock or stock option plan, except to the extent required by applicable National Law), employee benefits including retirement benefits, and other terms and conditions of employment, including those arising from Sellers’ internal policies and/or collective labor agreements, which are in the aggregate not less favorable than those in effect with the applicable Asset Sale Business Entity immediately before the Closing Date and that shall remain in effect for the longer of (x) the period required by applicable National Law or (y) twelve (12) months, provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing Purchaser shall be entitled (subject to Sections 7.2(e)(iii)(B) and (C)) to terminate Transferred Employees for cause, and to give notice of any future termination or modification of employment to such Transferred Employees that would take effect following expiry of such twelve (12) month period (or longer period under National Law), in each case in accordance with the terms of such Transferred Employees’ employment.

(ii)

With respect to the employment relationship of any Transferred Employees whose employment does not transfer at the Closing by operation of National Laws (e.g., because the applicable local law does not provide for such transfer), Seller Parent, the applicable Asset Sale Business Entity, and Purchaser shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the agreement of such Transferred Employees to transfer their employment relationship to Purchaser (or one of its designated Affiliates) effective as of the Closing Date and Purchaser (or one of its designated Affiliates) shall assume any and all Liabilities, including pension Liabilities, relating to such Transferred Employees as Assumed Liabilities. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Purchaser shall not have any obligation to make payments to any such Employee if not required by the applicable National Laws or to modify the contractual terms of employment of any such Employee, in each case in order to obtain such agreement. Purchaser agrees that the Contracts of employment and any contractual rights of such Transferred Employees shall have effect from the Closing Date as if originally made between Purchaser (or its designated Affiliate) and the Transferred Employees, and Purchaser shall make (or cause its designated Affiliate to make) offers of employment consistent with the foregoing, with credit for all years of service by such Transferred Employees with Sellers and their Affiliates where applicable, and positions, duties, responsibilities, compensation (but not including payment or other compensation in respect or in lieu of any unvested portion under any restricted stock or stock option plan),

Page 64

employee benefits including retirement benefits, and other terms and conditions of employment, including those arising from collective labor agreements, which are, in the aggregate, not less favorable than those in effect with the applicable Asset Sale Business Entity immediately before the Closing Date and which shall remain in effect for twelve (12) months, provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing Purchaser shall be entitled (subject to Sections 7.2(e)(iii)(B) and (C)) to terminate Transferred Employees for cause, and to give notice of any future termination or modification of employment to such Transferred Employees that would take effect following expiry of such twelve (12) month period, in each case in accordance with the terms of such Transferred Employee’s employment.

(iii)

The Purchaser shall assume all Liabilities (including employment relationship and pension Liabilities under Benefit Plans, but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, Liabilities relating to Asbestos Claims) relating to Former Employees of the Asset Sale Business Entities, except that Purchaser shall not assume any such Liabilities relating to Former Employees employed in France at the time of termination of their employment with Sellers or their Affiliates.

(iv)

Sellers and Purchaser shall cooperate on fulfilling any requirements of any applicable National Laws and take all other necessary or advisable actions with respect to information and transfer procedures.

(v)

Wherever legally permissible, and subject to all applicable information, consultation and consent requirements, from the date hereof until the Closing, Seller Parent and Purchaser shall cooperate in good faith to identify no more than fifteen (15) Employees employed in jurisdictions other than those described in Section 1.1 hereof whose continued employment with Seller Parent or Sellers would be mutually beneficial to the parties, and Seller Parent and Sellers shall seek in good faith to employ such jointly identified Employees in other comparable positions before the Closing Date. If Seller Parent and Sellers are unable to employ such Employees in other positions or such Employees refuse to accept new positions with Seller Parent or Sellers, such Employees shall qualify as Transferred Employees in accordance with the applicable provision of this Article 7 and, if applicable, Purchaser shall reimburse any severance and other termination costs (if any) payable by Seller Parent or its Affiliates with respect to any such Employees.

(vi)

Wherever legally permissible and subject to the individual consent of the contractors (where required), the Contracts for the contractors of the Asset Sale Business Entities that constitute Transferred Assets shall be transferred to Purchaser (or one of its designated Affiliates) or a Transferred Entity at or prior to the Closing.

Page 65

(vii)

Subject to Section 7.2(b), so long as Purchaser has complied with its obligations in respect of the compensation offered to Employees pursuant to Sections 7.2(a)(i) and 7.2(a)(ii), Purchaser shall not be liable for any severance or other costs (including retention payments) related to any Employee who refuses to continue their employment with the relevant Transferred Entity or to transfer their employment to Purchaser (or one of its designated Affiliates) as of Closing, other than any Employee described in Section 7.2(a)(v) hereof; provided, however, that if any Employee rejects transfer to Purchaser (or one of its designated Affiliates) at or prior to Closing and collects any such severance or other payment from Seller Parent or its Affiliates, then Purchaser shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, employ such Employee for a period of twelve (12) months following the date of such rejection or termination absent reimbursement to Seller Parent or such Affiliate of the applicable severance or other payment.

(b)

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Seller Parent, Sellers and Purchaser agree that Purchaser shall promptly reimburse Seller Parent or the applicable Seller for fifty percent (50%) of all severance and other costs, payments and expenses incurred by Seller Parent and its Affiliates in connection with any Employee employed in France who refuses to continue their employment with the relevant Transferred Entity or to transfer their employment to Purchaser (or one of its designated Affiliates) as of Closing.

(c)

Seller Parent, Sellers and Purchaser acknowledge that the employment relationships of the Transferred Entity Employees (and all Liabilities relating thereto as well as any Liabilities relating to the Former Employees of the Transferred Entities) will remain with the Transferred Entities as Assumed Liabilities hereunder and shall not be affected by the Closing and that the Contracts of employment of all Transferred Entity Employees as in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date shall transfer with the Transferred Entities.

(d)

Sellers shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the agreement of the Employees listed in Schedule 7.2(d) (the “Key Employees”) to transfer their employment to Purchaser (or one of its designated Affiliates) or continue their employment with the relevant Transferred Entity, as applicable, after the Closing Date; provided, however, that Sellers shall not have any obligation to make payments or offer other benefits to such Employees or modify the terms of employment in order to obtain such agreement. If any Key Employee rejects transfer from Sellers to Purchaser (or one of its designated Affiliates) at Closing or terminates his/her employment, in accordance with the termination procedures set forth in the applicable National Laws, with the relevant Transferred Entity on or prior to the Closing Date, then (i) Sellers, to the extent permitted by Law and not in conflict with existing obligations under any relevant Contract, shall terminate his or her employment (in respect of Employees described above who have not previously terminated such employment with Sellers) and shall not

Page 66

employ such Key Employee for a period of twelve (12) months following the date of such rejection or termination; and (ii) Sellers shall cooperate with Purchaser to find a reasonable interim solution for the loss of such Employee. For clarity, Purchaser shall not be liable for any severance or other costs (including retention payments) related to any Key Employee who (i) refuses to continue their employment with the relevant Transferred Entity or (ii) to transfer their employment to Purchaser (or one of its designated Affiliates) so long as Purchaser is in compliance with its obligations in respect of compensation pursuant to Sections 7.2(a)(i) and 7.2(a)(ii), as applicable.

(e)	The following provisions shall apply with respect to all Employees and Former Employees:

(i)

Purchaser agrees that in computing the amount of entitlement under all terms and conditions of employment, including compensation and employee benefits, service with Sellers, the Transferred Entities or any of their respective Affiliates, and with Purchaser and its Affiliates shall be taken into account. Seller Parent and Sellers agree that they shall be solely responsible for all Liabilities arising from or related to ongoing obligations of Seller Parent or any Seller under Sellers’ Benefit Plans other than Liabilities under the Benefit Plans that will be continued by the Transferred Entities after the Closing (including the German Retirement Plans) and the Liabilities that will otherwise be assumed by Purchaser (or its designated Affiliates) pursuant to this Section 7.2 (collectively, the “Assumed Benefit Plans”). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Purchaser shall not assume any Liability with respect to any vested rights (as determined under the rules of the applicable plan) under any equity-based incentive compensation scheme of the Transferred Entities, Sellers or their Affiliates in effect prior to Closing.

(ii)

For the avoidance of doubt, Purchaser accepts that it or the Transferred Entities, as the case may be, shall be responsible (as Assumed Liabilities) for, and shall indemnify the Seller Indemnified Parties for Losses and Liabilities relating to, dismissal of Employees by Purchaser, the Transferred Entities or another one of Purchaser’s Affiliates, as the case may be, at any time on or following the Closing, notwithstanding that such amounts may be calculated by reference to periods of employment with Sellers and/or Transferred Entities and/or their Affiliates prior to the Closing as well as periods of employment with Purchaser and/or its Subsidiaries and their Affiliates on or following the Closing.

(iii)

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the following shall be Assumed Liabilities of Purchaser, subject to indemnification of the Seller Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 11.2:

Page 67

(A)

any payments relating to or arising out of the employment of (x) Employees and (y) Former Employees (including, without limitation, for any Taxes or social security contributions) other than Former Employees employed in France as of the date of termination of their employment with Seller Parent or its Affiliates;

(B)

any claim relating to or arising out of a change in the working conditions and/or terms and conditions of employment of the Employees (including under Contracts and collective agreements) initiated by Purchaser (or its designated Affiliates) and occurring on or after the Closing Date, and any Losses or Liabilities relating to or arising out of any such change (including any Loss or Liability arising out of the termination or replacement of any incentive compensation scheme (whether equity or cash based), other than vested portions thereof);

(C)

any claim (including any pending, ongoing or threatened litigation, whether known or unknown) relating to or arising out of an Employee’s or Former Employees’ (other than Former Employees employed in France as of the date of termination of their employment with Seller Parent or its Affiliates) employment or termination of employment (including with respect to any termination simultaneous with Closing, other than by Purchaser and its Affiliates), whether in Contract or in tort or under statute or other Law, for any remedy (including, without limitation, for breach of Contract, unfair dismissal, any form of severance, redundancy, indemnity or termination payment, equal pay, sex, race or disability discrimination, pain and suffering, damages, unlawful deductions from wages or for breach of statutory duty or of any other nature), and any Losses or Liabilities relating to or arising out of any such claim (including any Loss or Liability of the Seller Indemnified Parties in the event Purchaser is unable to administer or manage any such Liability without the involvement of the Seller Indemnified Parties due to applicable Law or a ruling from a court of competent jurisdiction); and

(D)

any claim, Loss, or Liability under, that relates to or arises out of the Assumed Benefit Plans or any assets or Liabilities transferred to Purchaser pursuant to Section 7.2(e).

(iv)

Where a continuance of membership of Employees and Former Employees in any Assumed Benefit Plan is legally required or requested by Sellers and permissible pursuant to the relevant plan rules, Purchaser shall use reasonable efforts to ensure that such membership is continued following the Closing Date (including, if applicable, by the relevant Transferred Entity or designated Affiliate). Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, as of the Closing Date, if legally permissible and possible in the relevant jurisdiction, each Employee shall cease to be an active participant in Sellers’ Benefit Plans and Purchaser shall ensure that the Assumed Benefit Plans are continued in accordance with the provisions of this Article 7.

Page 68

(v)

As of the Closing Date, Purchaser shall establish or maintain employee benefit plans, programs or arrangements outside of the United States in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and applicable National Laws. To the extent legally permissible and possible in the relevant jurisdictions, (x) the Assumed Benefit Plans will be transferred or assigned to Purchaser, its designated Affiliate or a Transferred Entity as of the Closing Date and Purchaser, its designated Affiliate or the Transferred Entity, as the case may be, shall be solely liable for any claims relating to benefits under the Assumed Benefit Plans, and (y) Sellers shall be solely liable for any claims relating to benefits under the Benefit Plans other than the Assumed Benefit Plans.

(vi)

To the extent administratively and legally possible, Sellers will use their commercially reasonable efforts to secure that the administrators or responsible persons under Sellers’ funded Assumed Benefit Plans will (x) pay or transfer, or cause to be paid or transferred, the assets of Sellers’ Assumed Benefit Plans to Purchaser’s (or its designated Affiliates’) benefit plans in respect of Transferred Employees or (y) assign any insurance contract to Purchaser’s benefit plans in respect of Transferred Employees. Any such payment or assignment will be made as soon as practicable after the Closing Date. Purchaser will accept the assignment of any plan assets and insurance contract and will use its reasonable best efforts to secure that the administrators or other responsible persons of Purchaser’s benefit plans will accept the payment or transfer. Where the Assumed Benefit Plans include assets in respect of employees or former employees whose Liability will otherwise remain with Sellers, the basis for fixing those assets which will be transferred to Purchaser will be mutually agreed to by Seller Parent and Purchaser. Where an Assumed Benefit Plan is unfunded, there will consequently be no transfer of assets. The provisions set out in this paragraph shall not in any way limit Purchaser’s right to make future changes within the scope of applicable laws to any benefit plans.

(f)

To the extent permitted by Law, Purchaser shall give to Sellers, and Seller Parent shall give and cause to be given to Purchaser, on a timely basis all requisite and pertinent information which Sellers and Purchaser, respectively, may reasonably require in order to comply with their respective obligations with respect to the Employees and/or the Former Employees. Sellers and Purchaser shall cooperate with each other with respect to any employment-related charge, complaint, investigation or inquiry of any kind relating to any Employee and/or Former Employee, including but not limited to, providing copies of documents and making witnesses available.

Page 69

(g)

Purchaser and Seller shall comply with all obligations under applicable National Laws and all reasonable requests of Purchaser or Sellers to provide information to Purchaser or Sellers for onward transmission to Employees or their representatives and/or to provide such information directly to the Employees or their representatives.

8.	CONDITIONS TO CLOSING.

8.1	Conditions to Obligations of Purchaser.

The obligations of Purchaser to be performed at the Closing are subject to the satisfaction at or prior to the Closing of each of the following conditions, unless waived by Purchaser in its sole discretion:

(a)

Absence of Injunction. No injunction, order, judgment or decree shall have been issued by any Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction and be in effect that prohibits or enjoins the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. No applicable Law shall have been enacted by any Governmental Authority that prohibits the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b)

9.	TERMINATION; SURVIVAL.

9.1	Termination.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, this Agreement may be terminated and the transactions contemplated hereby abandoned at any time prior to the Closing:

(a)	by mutual consent of Purchaser and Seller Parent;

(b)

by either Seller Parent or Purchaser at any time if the transactions contemplated hereby are not consummated by the date that is twelve (12) months from the date of this Agreement (the “Deadline”), provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1(b) shall not be available to a party if breach of this Agreement by that party (including without limitation breach of obligations under Section 6.4) is the reason for the failure of the Closing to occur on or before the Deadline; provided, further, that if the Regulatory Conditions have not been satisfied by the Deadline, then Seller Parent may extend the Deadline from time to time to a date not later than fifteen (15) months following the date of this Agreement (the “Final Deadline”);

(c)

by either Seller Parent or Purchaser if an injunction, order, decision, judgment or decree is issued by the European Commission with respect to Antitrust Laws that prohibits or enjoins in any material respect the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and such injunction, order, decision, judgment or decree becomes final and non-appealable, provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1(c) shall not be available to a party if breach of Section 6.4 (as interpreted pursuant to Schedule 12.20) by such party is the reason for the failure of the Regulatory Conditions to be satisfied;

(d)

by either Seller Parent or Purchaser if an injunction, order, decision, judgment or decree is issued by a Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction (other than the European Commission with respect to Antitrust Laws) that prohibits or enjoins the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and such injunction, order, decision, judgment or decree becomes final and non-appealable;

(e)

by Purchaser, if there has been a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by Sellers in this Agreement such that any condition in Section 8.1(b) would not be satisfied and such breach is not cured, or such condition shall become incapable of being satisfied, as of the Deadline or, if extended, the Final Deadline, unless such failure to be satisfied or incapacity was caused by Purchaser’s breach of a representation, covenant or agreement contained herein; or

Page 72

(f)

by Seller Parent, if there has been a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by Purchaser in this Agreement such that any condition in Section 8.2(b) would not be satisfied and such breach is not cured, or such condition shall become incapable of being satisfied, as of the Deadline or, if extended, the Final Deadline, unless such failure to be satisfied or incapacity was caused by a Seller’s breach of a representation, covenant or agreement contained herein.

9.2	Effect of Termination.

(a)

If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9.1, this Agreement (including without limitation the representations and warranties contained in Articles 3 and 4) shall become null and void and of no further force and effect, and none of the parties hereto (nor their respective Affiliates, directors, shareholders, officers, employees, agents, consultants, attorneys-in-fact or other representatives) shall have any liability in respect of such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such termination is effected pursuant to Section 9.1 and there has been a breach of this Agreement, the party having so breached shall remain liable to the other party hereto on account of such breach, and the non-breaching party shall retain all rights in equity or law arising as a result of such breach. The provisions of this Section 9.2, of Sections 12.1, 12.9, 12.14 and 12.19 and of any confidentiality agreement between the parties shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

(b)

In the event of any termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(b), if at the time of such termination any Regulatory Condition has not been satisfied or waived, or Section 9.1(c), then Purchaser shall immediately pay to Seller Parent a non-refundable fee equal to Seven Million Dollars ($7,000,000) (the “Termination Fee”).

(c)

Purchaser and Seller Parent agree that the agreement contained in Section 9.2(b) is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, that without such agreement Seller Parent would not have entered into this Agreement, and that the Termination Fee does not constitute a penalty. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the right to receive payment of the Termination Fee, if and when due in accordance with the terms of this Article 9, shall not constitute Seller Parent or Sellers’ sole and exclusive remedy, and the receipt of the Termination Fee by Seller Parent shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy to which any Seller Indemnified Party is otherwise entitled under this Agreement, at law or in equity. Until the later of the date on which this Agreement shall have been terminated or the Termination Fee shall have been paid, Seller Parent shall be entitled to specific performance to enforce the obligations of Purchaser under this Agreement.

POST-CLOSING OBLIGATIONS.

10.1	Covenant Not to Compete.

Seller Parent agrees that it shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, for a period of three (3) years after the Closing Date, directly or indirectly engage (whether as an owner, partner, member, manager, equityholder or otherwise) in the Business as conducted on the date hereof or on the Closing Date (“Competitive Activities”) in any jurisdiction other than the US; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit:

(a)

Seller Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or any of the accounts managed by them, including without limitation, of any pension or other benefit plan of each, from owning any outstanding capital stock or other equity interests of any Person engaging in any Competitive Activities provided the aggregate beneficial ownership of Seller Parent or such Subsidiaries, as applicable (without reference to pension or other benefit plan assets) does not exceed more than five percent (5%) of all issued and outstanding securities of any such Person;

(b)

Seller Parent or any of its Subsidiaries from engaging in any or all of the Excluded Businesses, including Seller Parent or any of its Subsidiaries from engaging in the aerospace friction material business conducted anywhere in the world (including designing, developing, manufacturing and selling for original equipment applications and service (which includes repair and overhaul) of any cerametallic or other friction material for Aerospace Applications);

(c)

Seller Parent or any of its Subsidiaries from acquiring any Person or business that engages in Competitive Activities provided that (i) such activities do not constitute the principal activities of the Person or business to be acquired (based on the sales of such business during the preceding four (4) full calendar quarters) and (ii) if Competitive Activities constitute in excess of fifteen percent (15%) of the revenues of the Person or business acquired during such time, Seller Parent shall, or shall cause such Subsidiary to, divest that portion of such Person or business that engages in Competitive Activities within twelve (12) months after the acquisition thereof;

(d)

Seller Parent or any of its Subsidiaries from maintaining or acquiring any business that designs, develops, manufactures, markets, repairs, overhauls and/or sells the kinds of materials or services that are supplied to the Business as of the Closing Date, including chemicals or plastic components; provided, that design, development, manufacture, marketing, repair, overhaul and/or sale of such materials or services is part of a broader business and Seller Parent and its Subsidiaries are not engaging in such business solely for the purposes of being in the Business;

(e)	Seller Parent or any of its Subsidiaries from owning any and all of the Excluded Assets and Retained Interests, and in the case of any Retained Interest which is an Equity Interest in a Transferred Entity, conducting the business thereof, in accordance with Section1.5; and

Page 74

(f)	Seller Parent or any of its Subsidiaries from undertaking any obligations (including fulfilling their obligations under Section 10.8 hereof) and exercising their rights under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the prohibitions in this Section 10.1 shall not apply to (i) any businesses or operations of Seller Parent or any of its Subsidiaries which are transferred to any third party (other than to a Subsidiary of Seller Parent) after the date hereof, or (ii) to any Subsidiaries of Seller Parent the stock of which is transferred to any third party (other than to a Subsidiary of Seller Parent) after the date hereof.

If any provision contained in this Section 10.1 shall for any reason be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this Section 10.1, but this Section 10.1 shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. It is the intention of the parties that if any of the restrictions or covenants contained herein is held to cover a geographic area or to be for a length of time that is not permitted by applicable Law, or in any way construed to be too broad or to any extent invalid, such provision shall not be construed to be null, void and of no effect, but to the extent such provision would be valid or enforceable under applicable Law, a court of competent jurisdiction shall construe and interpret or reform this Section 10.1 to provide for a covenant having the maximum enforceable geographic area, time period and other provisions (not greater than those contained herein) as shall be valid and enforceable under such applicable Law.

10.2	[Omitted].

10.3	Tax Matters.

(a)

Seller’s Pre-Closing Tax Returns. Seller Parent will prepare and timely file, or cause to be prepared and timely filed, all Tax Returns of Sellers (including the consolidated, unitary, or combined Tax Returns of Sellers) that include the operation of the Business or the Transferred Assets for all taxable periods (or portions thereof) ending prior to the Closing Date and all Tax Returns of Sellers which are required under applicable law to be filed as a consequence of the transactions contemplated under this Agreement.

(b)

Transferred Entities’ Pre-Closing Tax Returns. Seller Parent shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, (i) all Tax Returns of any Transferred Entities for any taxable period ending prior to the Closing Date and (ii) all Tax Returns of any Transferred Entity for any taxable period during all or a portion of which the Transferred Entity is a member of a consolidated, combined, unitary or affiliated group or a fiscal unity with Seller Parent or its Affiliates (other than the

Page 75

Transferred Entities). Each such Tax Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with historical practice, except to the extent otherwise required by Law. Seller Parent shall submit each such Tax Return (and any additional information regarding such Tax Return as may reasonably be requested by Purchaser) to Purchaser for filing at least thirty (30) business days prior to the due date for filing such Tax Return to allow Purchaser to review, comment, and object to the Tax Return based on Purchaser’s reasonable review. If Purchaser objects to such Tax Return, Purchaser shall notify Seller Parent of its objection in writing at least twenty (20) days prior to the due date for filing such Tax Return. Purchaser and Seller Parent shall negotiate in good faith in an attempt to resolve the objection to the reasonable satisfaction of both parties and, if they are unable to resolve the dispute within five (5) days of Seller Parent’s receipt of Purchaser’s written notification, the parties shall refer the disputed Tax Return to the Accounting Firm for final determination. The Accounting Firm shall make a final determination, which will be binding on both parties, at least five (5) days prior to due date for filing such Tax Return. Purchaser shall pay or cause to be paid all Taxes required to be paid with each such Tax Return, provided that Seller Parent shall be responsible for, and shall indemnify Purchaser no later than the due date of such Tax Return for, Retained Taxes shown as due on such Tax Return, except to the extent such Taxes were included in the calculation of Final Closing Date Net Working Capital.

(c)

Post-Closing Tax Returns. Purchaser will prepare and timely file, or cause to be prepared and timely filed, all other Tax Returns that are required to be filed in respect of the Transferred Assets, the Business and the Transferred Entities. Each such Tax Return to be prepared and filed for a Straddle Period (“Straddle Period Tax Return”) shall be prepared in a manner consistent with historical practice, except to the extent otherwise required by Law, and shall be provided to Seller Parent (together with any additional information regarding such Straddle Period Tax Return as may reasonably be requested by Seller Parent) for review and comment at least thirty (30) business days prior to the due date for filing to allow Seller Parent to review, comment, and object to the Straddle Period Tax Return based on Seller Parent’s reasonable review. If Seller Parent objects to such Straddle Period Tax Return, Seller Parent shall notify Purchaser of its objection in writing at least twenty (20) days prior to the due date for filing such Straddle Period Tax Return. Purchaser and Seller Parent shall negotiate in good faith in an attempt to resolve the objection to the reasonable satisfaction of both parties and, if they are unable to resolve the dispute within five (5) days of Purchaser’s receipt of Seller Parent’s written notification, the parties shall refer the disputed Straddle Period Tax Return to the Accounting Firm for final determination. The Accounting Firm shall make a final determination, which will be binding on both parties, at least five (5) days prior to the due date for filing such Straddle Period Tax Return. Purchaser shall pay, or cause to be paid, all Taxes shown as due on each such Tax Returns, provided, however, that in the case of a Straddle Period Tax Return, Sellers shall be responsible for, and Seller Parent shall indemnify Purchaser no later than the due date of such Straddle Period Tax Return for, Retained Taxes shown as due on such Straddle Period Tax Return, except to the extent such Taxes were included in the calculation of Final Closing Date Net Working Capital.

Page 76

(d)

Allocation of Straddle Period Taxes. For purposes of this Agreement, in the case of any Taxes that are imposed on a periodic basis and payable for a Straddle Period, the portion of such Tax which relates to the portion of such Straddle Period ending prior to the Closing Date shall (i) in the case of any real and personal property Taxes, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period up to but not including the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Straddle Period, and (ii) in the case of any other Tax, be deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the relevant Straddle Period ended prior to the Closing Date. Any prepayments and deposits of Taxes by Sellers or a Transferred Entity relating to a Straddle Period shall be taken into account as though the relevant Straddle Period ended prior to the Closing Date, and any Tax credits for a Straddle Period shall be allocated between the pre-Closing and post-Closing portions of the Straddle Period in the same manner as the Tax to which they relate would be allocated. All determinations necessary to give effect to the foregoing allocations shall be made in a manner consistent with prior practice of the Transferred Entities and the Sellers.

(e)

Group Tax Returns. Where a Transferred Entity is a member of a consolidated, combined, unitary or affiliated group or in a fiscal unity with Sellers or their Affiliates (other than the Transferred Entities) for any taxable period (or portion thereof) ending before the Closing Date, Sellers or their Affiliates (other than the Transferred Entities) (i) shall, if required or permitted by applicable law, use any of their losses, credits or other tax attributes to reduce the Tax liability of the Transferred Entity for taxable periods (or portions thereof) ending before the Closing Date and (ii) may, if required or permitted by applicable law, use any losses, credits or other tax attributes of the Transferred Entity arising in a taxable period (or portion thereof) ending before the Closing Date to reduce their own Tax liability and shall not be required to compensate the Transferred Entity or Purchaser for any such losses, credits or other tax attributes.

(f)

Refunds. If Purchaser or any Transferred Entity receives a refund (or a credit against non-Retained Taxes in lieu of a refund) of Retained Taxes (excluding any refund or credit attributable to any loss in a tax year (or portion of a Straddle Period) beginning on or after the Closing Date applied (e.g., as a carryback) against income in a Tax year (or portion of a Straddle Period) ending before the Closing Date), Purchaser will pay to the applicable Seller within thirty (30) days following the receipt of such refund (or the application of such credit), an amount equal to such refund (or credit), except to the extent any such refund (or credit) has been taken into account in the calculation of Final Closing Date Net Working

Page 77

Capital. For the avoidance of doubt, the immediately preceding sentence shall apply to any VAT paid by a Transferred Entity on purchases made by the Transferred Entity (“Input VAT”) for any tax period (or portion thereof) ending before the Closing Date for which the Transferred Entity receives a refund, or a credit against VAT otherwise payable by the Transferred Entity to a Taxing Authority on sales made by the Transferred Entity (“Output VAT”) for any tax period (or portion thereof) beginning on or after the Closing Date, and for this purpose Input VAT of the Transferred Entity shall be credited against Output VAT payable by the Transferred Entity on a “first in – first out” basis, unless otherwise provided by law. If the Sellers receive a refund (or a credit against Retained Taxes in lieu of a refund) of non-Retained Taxes, Seller Parent will pay, or cause to be paid, to Purchaser, within thirty (30) days following the receipt of such refund (or the application of such credit), the amount of such refund (or credit).

(g)

Settlement of Deficiencies and Adjustments. If any Governmental Authority issues to any Purchaser or Transferred Entity a notice of deficiency or any other type of proposed adjustment of Taxes of the Transferred Entity that could give rise solely to Retained Taxes, Purchaser must notify Seller Parent within thirty (30) Business Days of receipt of the notice of deficiency or other proposed adjustment. Seller Parent and the applicable Seller shall, at their own expense, have the sole and exclusive right to contest any assessment or other proposed adjustment of Taxes of the Transferred Entity that could give rise solely to Retained Taxes. Sellers have full right to control the conduct of any audit or administrative or judicial proceeding (a “Tax Proceeding”) that could give rise solely to Retained Taxes; provided, however, that Purchaser and its representatives shall have the right, at Purchaser’s expense, to participate in any such Tax Proceeding; provided, further, that settlement or other resolution of such Tax Proceeding shall be subject to the consent of Purchaser (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). Seller Parent shall keep Purchaser fully and timely informed with respect to the commencement, status and nature of any Tax Proceeding controlled by it and Seller Parent shall in good faith allow Purchaser to make comments to Seller Parent regarding the conduct of or positions taken in any such Tax Proceeding. Purchaser, at its own expense, has the sole and exclusive right to contest any assessment or other proposed adjustment of Taxes of a Transferred Entity that could give rise to non-Retained Taxes, and shall control the conduct of any Tax Proceeding that could give rise to non-Retained Taxes; provided, however that, if any such Tax Proceeding could give rise to Retained Taxes as well as non-Retained Taxes, then (i) Seller Parent and its representatives shall have the right, at Seller Parent’s expense, to participate in any such Tax Proceeding, (ii) settlement or other resolution of any such Tax Proceeding shall be subject to the consent of Purchaser (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), and (iii) Purchaser shall keep Seller Parent fully and timely informed with respect to the commencement, status and nature of any such Tax Proceeding and Purchaser shall in good faith allow Seller Parent to make comments to Purchaser regarding the conduct of or positions taken in any such Tax Proceeding.

Page 78

(h)

Cooperation and Exchange of Information. Seller Parent and Purchaser shall provide, or cause to be provided to, each other with such cooperation and information as either of them reasonably may request of the other in filing any Tax Return, an amended return or claim for refund, determining a liability for Taxes, including any VAT liability in connection with the transactions contemplated in this Agreement, or a right to refund of Taxes or in conducting any audit or other proceeding in respect of Taxes. Such cooperation and information shall include providing copies of all relevant Tax Returns, together with accompanying schedules and related workpapers, documents relating to rulings or other determinations by taxing authorities and records concerning the ownership and tax basis of property, which either party may possess. Each party shall make its employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide explanation of any documents or information provided hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no party shall be required to prepare any documents (except tax data packages referred to below), or determine any information not then in its possession, in response to a request under this Section 10.3(h). Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the party requesting assistance hereunder shall reimburse the other for any reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in providing any return, document or other written information, and shall compensate the other for any reasonable costs (excluding wages and salaries) of making employees available, upon receipt of reasonable documentation of such costs. Each party will retain and maintain all returns, schedules and workpapers and all material records, computer software and data maintained thereunder, or other documents relating thereto, until the expiration of the statute of limitations (including extensions) of the taxable years to which such returns and other documents relate and, unless such returns and other documents are offered to the other party, until the final determination of any payments which may be required in respect of such years under this Agreement and to give the other party reasonable notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records or computer software and data maintained thereunder, and, if the other party so requests, shall allow the other party to take possession of such books and records or computer software and data maintained thereunder. Any information obtained under this Section 10.3(h) shall be kept confidential, except as may be otherwise necessary in connection with the filing of returns or claims for refund or in conducting any audit or other proceeding. Purchaser and the Transferred Entities shall, at their own cost and expense, fully and accurately complete and submit any tax data packages required by Sellers within the time periods established by the tax department of Seller Parent consistent with past practices. Purchaser and Seller Parent further agree, upon request, to use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental Authority or any other person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including, but not limited to, with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby).

Page 79

(i)

Termination of Prior Tax Sharing Agreements. Effective on the Closing Date, all tax sharing agreements, whether or not written, to which a Transferred Entity is party shall be terminated at or prior to the Closing, and the Transferred Entity shall have no further rights or obligations thereunder, and the provisions of this Agreement shall govern the rights and obligations of Sellers, Purchaser and the Transferred Entities to make or receive payments with respect to Taxes or refunds of Taxes of the Transferred Entities. Seller Parent shall execute, or cause to be executed (and shall cause the other Sellers and the Transferred Entities to execute), any documents that may be reasonably required to evidence agreement with this Section 10.3(i).

(j)

German Tax Group Transferred Entities. Sellers have by mutual termination agreement or termination for good cause terminated the domination and profit transfer agreements (Beherrschungs- und Gewinnabführungsverträge) to which the German Tax Group Transferred Entities are parties effective as at the close of December 31, 2013, provided that the domination and profit transfer agreement (Beherrschungs- und Gewinnabführungsvertrag) between Honeywell Deutschland GmbH and Honeywell Friction Materials International GmbH dated November 22, 2012, shall be so terminated at or prior to Closing and effective as at the Closing Date. Sellers shall execute, or cause to be executed, any documents that may be required under the applicable law for due termination, including the deregistration of the domination and profit transfer agreements in the German commercial register (Handelsregister). Sellers and Purchaser agree that (i) the domination and profit transfer agreements have been duly performed until and including December 31, 2013, provided that the domination and profit transfer agreement (Beherrschungs- und Gewinnabführungsvertrag) between Honeywell Deutschland GmbH and Honeywell Friction Materials International GmbH dated November 22, 2012, will be duly performed until the Closing Date and (ii) Sellers shall be entitled to any profits and obliged to cover any losses of the German Tax Group Transferred Entities until such relevant date. The parties further agree that (i) the profits or losses of each German Tax Group Transferred Entity until and including December 31, 2013 shall be based on the annual statutory accounts for the business year 2013 of such German Tax Group Transferred Entity, and in addition that the profits or losses of Honeywell Friction Materials International GmbH under the domination and profit transfer agreement (Beherrschungs- und Gewinnabführungsvertrag) with Honeywell Deutschland GmbH dated November 22, 2012, until the Closing Date shall be determined based on an interim pro-forma income statement and balance sheet as of such date to be drawn up by Honeywell Friction Materials International GmbH pursuant to applicable German GAAP as soon as practicable after the Closing Date and to be agreed by Sellers and Purchaser, (ii) if Sellers and Purchaser do not agree on such income statement and pro-forma balance sheet within six (6) months of the Closing Date,

Page 80

then any dispute shall be submitted to a “big four” accounting firm whose resolution of the dispute shall, absent fraud or manifest error, be final and binding on the parties and the fees of whom shall be paid 50% by each party, (iii) the amount of profits or losses of such German Tax Group Transferred Entity determined according to (i) or (ii) above, plus interest required by law, shall be paid in the case of profits by such German Tax Group Transferred Entity to Honeywell Deutschland GmbH, and in the case of losses by Honeywell Deutschland GmbH to such German Tax Group Transferred Entity, in both cases to be paid within 30 days after the statutory accounts of such German Tax Group Transferred Entity for 2013 (or in the case of Honeywell Friction Materials International GmbH’s profits or losses for the period January 1, 2014 until the Closing Date, Honeywell Friction Materials International GmbH’s statutory accounts for its year that includes the Closing Date) have been approved by the German Tax Group Transferred Entity’s shareholder(s), and (iv) if any such payment is made after the Closing Date, then immediately upon receipt of any such payment (A) from such German Tax Group Transferred Entity to Honeywell Deutschland GmbH, Honeywell Deutschland GmbH shall pay the Purchaser an amount equal to the amount Honeywell Deutschland GmbH received from such German Tax Group Transferred Entity or (B) from Honeywell Deutschland GmbH to such German Tax Group Transferred Entity, the Purchaser shall pay Honeywell Deutschland GmbH an amount equal to the amount Honeywell Deutschland GmbH paid to such German Tax Group Transferred Entity, which payment in either case shall be treated as an adjustment of the purchase price paid by the Purchaser to Honeywell Deutschland GmbH for the Equity Interest in such German Tax Group Transferred Entity (or in the case of Honeywell Aftermarket Europe GmbH, the Equity Interest in Honeywell Bremsbelag GmbH). In the case of any payment to be made after the Closing Date pursuant to clause (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence, Purchaser will use reasonable best efforts to ensure (i) that the amount of the payment (excluding interest) shall be properly reflected in accordance with German GAAP and applicable law in the statutory accounts of the German Tax Group Transferred Entity with respect to which such payment will be made for the year that includes the period for which such payment will be made and (ii) such statutory accounts shall be approved by the shareholder(s) of such German Tax Group Transferred Entity. For the avoidance of doubt, any payment to be made after the Closing Date, or the obligation to make any such payment, under this Section 10.3(j) shall not be taken into account for purposes of the Post-Closing Adjustments in Section 2.2. Seller Parent shall be responsible for, and shall indemnify Purchaser for all such Taxes that result from, the termination of the domination and profit transfer agreement and the exit of German Tax Group Transferred Entities from the German fiscal unity including, but not limited to, Taxes to be paid or withheld due to the compliance with the obligations resulting from the fiscal unity. Any payments to be made (if any) in relation to the domination and profit transfer agreements including but not limited to its consummation or termination are to be understood as net of German withholding taxes required by law to be withheld (i.e. after deduction of any such German withholding taxes).

Page 81

(k)

Code Section 338(g) Elections. Purchaser shall have the right, without the consent of Seller or Seller Parent, to make an election under Code Section 338(g) with respect to any one or more of the Transferred Entities. Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller Parent for any increased Tax liability of Seller Parent as a result of any such election made by Purchaser under Code Section 338(g).

(l)

Tax Indemnification. Seller Parent shall indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser and the Transferred Entities for any Retained Taxes; provided, however, that Seller Parent’s obligations to indemnify Purchaser and the Transferred Entities pursuant to this Section 10.2(l) shall not apply to any Retained Taxes to the extent the Liability for such Taxes was taken into account in the calculation of the Final Closing Date Net Working Capital. For the avoidance of doubt, Seller Parent’s obligations to indemnify Purchaser and the Transferred Entities pursuant to this Section 10.2(l) shall not be subject to any limitation under Article 11.

(m)

Restriction on Post-Closing Dividends. If a Transferred Entity pays a dividend to Purchaser (or engages in a transaction that is treated as a dividend for US income tax purposes) on or after the Closing Date and on or before December 31, 2014, and if Purchaser does not make an election under Code Section 338(g) with respect to the Transferred Entity, then Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller Parent for any increased Tax liability of Seller Parent as a result of any such actual or deemed dividend.

10.4	Further Assurances.

From time to time after the Closing, without further consideration, the parties shall cooperate with each other and shall execute and deliver instruments of transfer or assignment or assumption, or such other documents, to the other party as such other party reasonably may request to evidence or perfect Purchaser’s right, title and interest to the Transferred Assets or to more effectively relieve Sellers of any liabilities or obligations to be assumed by Purchaser hereunder, and otherwise carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, taking such actions as may be required to finalize the transfer of any Transferred Assets set forth on Schedule 1.1(b)(ii) and Schedule 1.1(c)(ii) to Honeywell Chongqing and Honeywell Romania, respectively, to the extent not transferred as of Closing).

10.5	Reports; Access to Books and Records.

After the Closing, Purchaser shall permit Sellers to have reasonable access to and the right to make copies of Purchaser’s or the Transferred Entities’ or their Affiliates’ books, records and files to the extent reasonably necessary for use in litigation, financial reporting, tax return preparation, or tax compliance or other compliance (including

Page 82

compliance with the stock exchange rules and regulations) matters. In addition, Purchaser shall make available to Sellers, upon Sellers’ reasonable request, personnel of Purchaser, the Transferred Entities or their Affiliates who are familiar with any such matter requested.

Prior to disposing of any such information, Purchaser shall afford Sellers a reasonable opportunity, at Sellers’ cost and expense, to segregate, remove or copy such books, records and files as Sellers may select to the extent reasonably necessary for such purposes. Purchaser shall also make available to Sellers, at Sellers’ cost and expense and to the extent related to an Excluded Liability, copies of (x) process, material, test, manufacturing and quality specifications, and (y) sales information reflecting volume, customers, yearly totals and similar information.

Purchaser and Seller Parent shall cooperate in (i) maintaining all records used in and relevant to claims referred to in Sections 1.6 to 1.8 and (ii) designating custodian(s) of record for such purposes. The party requesting such cooperation shall pay the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in providing such cooperation (including reasonable legal fees and disbursements) by the party providing such cooperation and by its officers, directors, employees and agents, but shall not be responsible for reimbursing such party or its officers, directors, employees and agents for their time spent in such cooperation.

10.7	Names and Marks.

(a)

Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that it does not by virtue of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or otherwise, obtain any rights to Sellers’ Marks, all of which are, and will remain, the sole property of Seller Parent and its Affiliates (other than the Transferred Entities). Purchaser further acknowledges and agrees that Seller Parent and its Affiliates retain exclusively all rights to any names, marks, trade names or trademarks not used exclusively in the Business and any of the foregoing that are not Transferred Intellectual Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for a period not to exceed ninety (90) days from the Closing Date, Purchaser shall have the limited right (i) to use up Business Inventory, stationery and other printed material acquired pursuant to this Agreement without modifying any trademark or logo thereon, provided that all such material carrying any of the Sellers’ Marks shall clearly indicate by stamp, sticker or other similar notice or marking that the Transferred Assets are now

owned by Purchaser, and (ii) to use Business Personal Property acquired pursuant to this Agreement without modifying any trademark or logo thereon, provided that, in the case of tooling, Purchaser marks any product manufactured with such tooling to indicate the date of manufacture and shall eliminate such trademark or logo from such tooling prior to abandoning or disposing thereof.

(b)

Without prejudice to Section 10.7(a), Purchaser shall promptly and, in any event (if not in violation of applicable Law or otherwise prohibited by a Governmental Authority) shall within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, change the name of each Transferred Entity with the relevant Governmental Authority in such Transferred Entity’s jurisdiction of formation to remove any of Sellers’ Marks from the name of such entity.

11.4	Limitations on Indemnity.

(a)

Other than any claim relating to a breach of the Fundamental Seller Representations or a breach of the representations and warranties in Section 3.19 (Taxes), 3.13(c) or 3.14(a), Seller Parent shall have no liability or obligation to any Purchaser Indemnified Party with respect to any claims (or group of related claims or claims having a similar factual or legal basis) made pursuant to Section 11.1(b), until the aggregate amount of Losses that are imposed on or incurred by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties in respect of all such claims exceeds One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) (the “Threshold”), and thereafter only to the extent that such Losses exceed the Threshold.

(b)	Other than any claim relating to a breach of the Fundamental Seller Representations or a breach of the representations and warranties in Section 3.19

Page 86

(Taxes), in no event shall Seller Parent have any liability or obligation to any Purchaser Indemnified Party with respect to any claim (or group of related claims or claims having a similar factual or legal basis) made pursuant to Section 11.1(b) unless the Losses claimed thereunder exceed fifty thousand Dollars ($50,000).

(c)	Other than in the case of fraud, in no event shall Seller Parent’s aggregate liability or obligation for Losses in respect of all claims (or group of related claims or claims having a similar factual or legal basis):

(i)

within the scope of Section 11.1(b), collectively exceed an amount equal to fifteen percent (15%) of the Purchase Price (the “General Cap”), other than any claim in respect of a breach of the Fundamental Seller Representations or a breach of the representations and warranties in Section 3.19 (Taxes), 3.13(c) or 3.14(a); or

(ii)

within the scope of Section 11.1(c) in respect of any Required Pre-Closing Asbestos Remediation, Pre-Closing Environmental Non-Compliance or Required Pre-Closing Soil/Groundwater Remediation, collectively exceed, an amount equal to forty-five percent (45%) of the Purchase Price (the “Environmental Cap”); or

(iv)

within the scope of Section 11.1(a) in respect of a breach of Seller Parent’s obligations under Section 6.13, collectively exceed an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the Purchase Price.

(d)

Other than in the case of fraud by Purchaser, in no event shall Purchaser’s aggregate liability or obligation pursuant to Section 11.2(d) for Losses in respect of all TMD Claims (including pursuant to Section 6.12) collectively exceed an amount equal to Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00) (the “TMD Claim Cap”).

(e)

Seller Parent shall have no liability or obligation to any Purchaser Indemnified Party under Section 11.1 for any Loss (or portion thereof) (i) of any equityholder (or Affiliate thereof other than Federal-Mogul Corporation and its Subsidiaries) in Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (without prejudice, for the avoidance of doubt, to the recoverability of any such Losses in respect of Asbestos Claims to the extent indemnifiable under Schedule 11.6) or (ii) to the extent that such Loss (or such portion) arises out of or is exacerbated by (A) facts or circumstances relating solely to the identity of Purchaser or its Affiliates; (B) any action or omission

Page 87

carried out at the express written request of, or with the written consent of, Purchaser; (C) a breach by Purchaser or its Affiliates of any obligation under this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements or (D) any change in or to any Laws after Closing which results in or has the effect of imposing more onerous requirements than those in effect at Closing.

(f)

For purposes of calculating the amount of Losses in connection with a claim for indemnification under Section 11.1 or Section 11.2 (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not for purposes of determining whether a breach has occurred), each of the representations and warranties that contains any qualifications as to “materiality”, “Material Adverse Effect” or similar shall be deemed to have been given as though there were no such qualifications, and any such qualifications shall be disregarded for such purpose.

(g)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall any Indemnitor be liable to any Indemnitee hereunder for any Losses that constitute consequential, indirect, special, exemplary or punitive damages or Losses that constitute damages or Losses for lost business, income or profits, loss of business reputation or opportunity or diminution of value, except in each case, to the extent such damages are payable to a third party (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any holder of shares or other equity interests (or Affiliate thereof) in Purchaser or any of its Affiliates) pursuant to a final, non-appealable judgment or order in connection with the final determination or settlement of a Third Party Claim.

(h)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall Seller Parent be liable to any Purchaser Indemnified Party for any Losses (or portion thereof) that constitute royalty or similar payments arising out of a TMD Claim (including any settlement thereof) or, for the avoidance of doubt, to the extent such Losses (or portion thereof) arise out of or relate to the use of the technology patented in EP0654616B1 by Purchaser or its Affiliates, except to the extent that such technology is used in the same manner and products as it was used by the Business prior to Closing (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any use of such technology in connection with any other part, or product, of the friction material business or any other business of Purchaser or its Affiliates).

(i)	Upon payment of any amount pursuant to any claim for indemnification hereunder, the Indemnitor shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to all of the Indemnitee’s rights of recovery against any third party with respect to any matter to which such claim relates.

(j)	In calculating the amounts payable by Seller Parent pursuant to Section 11.1 (and any amounts applied towards the Threshold):

(i)

the amount of any indemnifiable Losses shall be determined without duplication or double counting of any Liabilities reflected in the final Closing Statement (including the calculation of the Purchase Price) or

Page 88

other Loss for which an indemnification claim has been made and recovered by a Purchaser Indemnified Party under any other representation, warranty, covenant or agreement and shall be reduced by (i) amounts recovered by the Purchaser Indemnified Party under indemnification agreements or arrangements with third parties or under any insurance policy (including worker’s compensation insurance) with respect to such Losses; and (ii) recovery from third parties by the Purchaser Indemnified Party. If, subsequent to receiving an indemnification payment hereunder, a Purchaser Indemnified Party receives any amounts from any such third party under any such applicable indemnity agreements, insurance policies or otherwise, then Purchaser shall cause such Purchaser Indemnified Party to promptly reimburse Seller Parent for any such payment made up to the amount received by such Purchaser Indemnified Party, net of any expenses incurred by such Purchaser Indemnified Party in collecting such amounts. Further, if the amount of Losses determined under this subsection are reduced to reflect any amounts recovered by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties from any such third party under any such applicable indemnity agreements or otherwise and the Purchaser Indemnified Parties are subsequently determined by a final and binding decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to be required to disgorge all or any part of such amounts, Seller Parent will be obligated to promptly make payment to the Purchaser Indemnified Parties in an amount equal to the disgorged amount; and

(ii)

the amount of any indemnifiable Loss (or portion thereof) arising out of or relating to any product recall or product warranty claim shall be allocated to Seller Parent solely in such proportion (the “Product Recall Loss Allocation”) as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of Seller Parent and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Purchaser Indemnified Parties, on the other hand, and Seller Parent’s liability and obligation to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnified Parties in respect of any such Loss shall be limited to its Product Recall Loss Allocation of such Loss. Determination of a Product Recall Loss Allocation will take into account, without limitation, whether the Purchaser Indemnified Parties effected a timely recall, failed to diligently satisfy customer requirements or otherwise sought to prevent or mitigate the applicable Loss and such other actions or omissions of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties which may have exacerbated or contributed to such Loss.

(k)

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Seller Parent shall have no liability or obligation to any Purchaser Indemnified Party for any Loss (or portion thereof) (x) covered by Section 11.1(b) and relating to the representations and warranties in Section 3.13 or (y) covered by Section 11.1(c) and relating to Pre-Closing Environmental Liabilities, in each case to the extent that such Loss (or such portion):

Page 89

(i)

arises out of or is exacerbated by (A) Management of any Hazardous Materials by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties; (B) any failure by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties following the Closing to comply with any applicable Environmental Law; (C) any act or omission by any Purchaser Indemnified Party after Closing which is willful, reckless or grossly negligent; or (D) any change of use by Purchaser or its Affiliates at any Owned Real Property or Leased Real Property after Closing to a non-industrial use;

(ii)

consists of the costs of routine maintenance or repair or the costs of replacement, improvement or upgrade of or to any building or other structure; or

(iii)

arises out of or relates to (A) any Required Pre-Closing Soil/Groundwater Remediation or, in the case of an Asbestos Condition, Required Pre-Closing Asbestos Remediation that is performed to standards that are higher than Applicable Remediation Standards, unless such higher standards are imposed by legal authorities with jurisdiction over the Required Pre-Closing Soil/Groundwater Remediation or Required Pre-Closing Asbestos Remediation, as applicable or (B) any other remedial or response action whatsoever that is performed to standards that are higher than those which are applicable to the industrial use of the relevant Owned Real Property or Leased Real Property.

(l)

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Seller Parent shall have no liability or obligation to Purchaser Indemnified Party for any Loss (or portion thereof) in respect of any Soil and/or Groundwater Contamination or Asbestos Condition to the extent that such Loss (or such portion) arises out of or relates to the total or partial cessation of operations or activities or any development, expansion, decommissioning, demolition, removal, or construction of any facility, plant, equipment, building or structure at any Owned Real Property or Leased Real Property after Closing, except to the extent such Loss (or such portion) is solely attributable to carrying out Required Pre-Closing Soil/Groundwater Remediation or Required Pre-Closing Asbestos Remediation, as the case may be.

(m)

Without prejudice to any other provision of this Agreement, Purchaser on behalf of each Purchaser Indemnified Party agrees that Seller Parent shall be entitled in relation to any remedial or other response actions which are to be carried out in relation to Soil and/or Groundwater Contamination and/or Asbestos Condition to select or adopt the most reasonable cost actions including (without limitation) risk-based remediation standards, natural attenuation, institutional controls, and/or deed restrictions provided they do not unreasonably interfere with the industrial use of the relevant Indemnified Site or other relevant Owned Real Property or Leased Real Property as carried out at Closing.

Page 90

(n)

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the exclusive remedies of the Purchaser and/or any Purchaser Indemnified Party in respect of any Losses relating to the exposure of any person to asbestos shall be limited to the extent of the Seller Parent’s indemnity obligations set out in Schedule 11.6 and, for the avoidance of doubt, neither this Section 11.4 nor any of the limitations or restrictions set forth herein (including without limitation the survival periods, Seller Liability Caps and the Threshold) shall be deemed to apply with respect to Asbestos Claims, which are separately provided for in Schedule 11.6.

11.5	Indemnification Procedure.

(a)

Any Person making a claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 11.1 or Section 11.2 (an “Indemnitee”) shall notify the indemnifying party (an “Indemnitor”) of the claim in writing promptly after receiving written notice of any action, lawsuit, proceeding, investigation or other claim subject to indemnification pursuant to Section 11.1 or Section 11.2, or of any obligation or facts which may reasonably be expected to give rise to such claim for indemnification, describing the claim, the amount thereof (if known and quantifiable), and the basis thereof (a “Notice of Claim”), provided that the failure to so notify an Indemnitor shall not relieve the Indemnitor of its obligations hereunder except to the extent such failure shall have prejudiced the Indemnitor.

(b)

With respect to any third party action, lawsuit, proceeding, investigation or other claim or potential claim (in each case excluding any action, lawsuit, proceeding, investigation or other claim or potential claim of a shareholder or other holder of equity interests (or an Affiliate thereof) in Purchaser or any of its Affiliates) which is the subject of a Notice of Claim other than a TMD Claim (a “Third Party Claim”), an Indemnitor shall be entitled but not obliged to assume control and/or conduct (with counsel of its choice) the defense of such Third Party Claim at the Indemnitor’s expense and at its option by sending written notice of its election to do so within fifteen (15) Business Days after receiving the Notice of Claim from the Indemnitee as aforesaid; provided, however, that:

(i)

The Indemnitee shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose (the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be borne by Indemnitee); and to assert against any third party (other than the Indemnitor or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates) any and all crossclaims and counterclaims the Indemnitee may have, subject to Indemnitor’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld;

(ii)

If the Indemnitor elects to assume the defense of any such Third Party Claim the Indemnitor shall be entitled to compromise or settle such claim in its sole discretion so long as either (x) such compromise or settlement is purely monetary, does not impose injunctive or equitable relief or sanction against the Indemnitee, does not include any other material financial obligation on the part of the Indemnitee and provides an unconditional release of the Indemnitee with respect to such claim or (y) the Indemnitor shall obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnitee (which shall not be unreasonably withheld); and

Page 91

(iii)

If the Indemnitor shall not have assumed the defense of such Third Party Claim within the fifteen (15) Business Day period set forth above, the Indemnitee may assume the defense of such claim with counsel selected by it (and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitor) and may make any compromise or settlement thereof or otherwise protect against the same and be entitled to all amounts paid as a result of such Third Party Claim or any compromise or settlement thereof, provided that, in the case of any such compromise or settlement, (x) such compromise or settlement is purely monetary and provides an unconditional release of the Indemnitor with respect to such Third Party Claim, or (y) the Indemnitee shall obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnitor (which shall not be unreasonably withheld).

(c)	The Indemnitee shall at all times cooperate, at its own expense, in all reasonable ways with, make its relevant files and records available for inspection and copying by, and make its employees available or otherwise render reasonable assistance to, the Indemnitor.

(d)

With respect to any third party action, lawsuit, proceeding, investigation or other claim or potential claim (in each case excluding any action, lawsuit, proceeding, investigation or other claim or potential claim of a shareholder or other holder of equity interests (or an Affiliate thereof) in Purchaser or any of its Affiliates) which is the subject of a Notice of Claim and which relates to a TMD Claim, from and after the Closing, the Purchaser shall not be entitled to assume control or conduct the defense thereof. Seller Parent shall not, and shall cause the other Sellers not to, settle any TMD Claim other than for monetary damages without the written consent of Purchaser (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).

(e)

The foregoing clauses 11.5(a) and 11.5(b) notwithstanding, with respect to any claim by an Indemnitee (including in respect of a Third Party Claim) for indemnification pursuant to 11.1(b) and relating to the representations and warranties in Section 3.13 (Environmental Conditions) or pursuant to Section 11.1(c) and relating to Pre-Closing Environmental Liabilities (or, for the avoidance of doubt, any such claim in respect of any Excluded Assets), the Indemnitor shall be entitled (but not obligated) at any time to assume and have control and/or conduct of the matter with respect to which the Indemnitee claims indemnity (hereinafter “Purchaser Claims”), which Purchaser Claims include, without limitation, any actions or steps to address or otherwise in relation to any Soil and/or Groundwater Contamination or Asbestos Condition or any other environment-related condition including, without limitation, site investigations,

Page 92

sampling, monitoring, assessment, clean-up, remediation, treatment, destruction, containment, removal, transportation, disposal (including without limitation disposal offsite) of or in relation to any Hazardous Materials (hereinafter a “Site Remediation”), provided, however, that Indemnitee shall have the right to review and approve (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) actions proposed to be taken by the Indemnitor with respect to Purchaser Claims. Indemnitee agrees that it shall reasonably cooperate in any and all reasonable ways with the Indemnitor, including by:

(i)

providing the Indemnitor, its employees, agents, contractors and subcontractors and other authorized representatives engaged by or associated with the Indemnitor (collectively, the “Indemnitor Personnel”) and representatives of any governmental agency with reasonable access to any property of the Indemnitee to control, conduct, supervise and/or carry out Site Remediation; provided, however, that such access shall be subject to the terms of an access agreement reasonably acceptable to Indemnitee and provided further that such access shall only occur at times and for periods reasonably agreed to by Purchaser and shall not unreasonably interfere with the Business activities conducted at any facilities;

(ii)

providing reasonable assistance in securing any required permits or approvals (including without limitation by holding in its name any such permit where necessary or appropriate, provided that Indemnitor confirms that any liability which may arise as a result of holding such permit in Indemnitee’s name will be subject to indemnification pursuant to the terms of this Article 11) in order to perform any Site Remediation; provided, however, that reasonable, out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in providing such assistance shall be reimbursed by the Indemnitor;

(iii)

providing such support as may be reasonably required and requested by the Indemnitor or Indemnitor Personnel in conducting any Site Remediation and in managing, conducting, settling and/or defending any Third Party Claim; including without limitation, permitting the Indemnitor to review, copy and/or consult pertinent books, documents and records and to interview knowledgeable employees, provided that reasonable expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in providing such assistance shall be reimbursed by the Indemnitor; provided further that Indemnitee may preclude access by Indemnitor to any records or other information that are legally privileged (provided that the Indemnitee shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to disclose such records and information in a way that would not waive such privilege); and provided, finally, that access to records or other information that are confidential may be conditioned upon execution of customary non-disclosure undertakings in respect of such records and information;

Page 93

(iv)

providing such decision, comments or information as may reasonably be requested by the Indemnitor to avoid unreasonable delay in the performance of any Site Remediation and/or any assessment, settlement or defense of any Third Party Claim;

(v)

providing any necessary temporary, non-exclusive license or easements upon any property of the Indemnitee, any necessary access to utilities, including but not limited to water, at the expense of the Indemnitor (provided the charges for such utilities are separately metered), and any necessary place to receive any treated water, at the expense of the Indemnitor, provided that such easement or access does not materially interfere with the Business activities conducted at any facilities;

(vi)

providing reasonable assistance in prosecuting any claims it may have against third party contributors to the underlying matter; and

(vii)

permitting the Indemnitor to undertake any Site Remediation necessary to fulfill Indemnitor’s responsibilities under this Agreement, subject to Indemnitee’s review and approval (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) and provided that Indemnitor’s access shall be subject to the terms of an access agreement reasonably acceptable to Indemnitee, such access shall only occur at times and for periods reasonably agreed to by Purchaser and such access shall not unreasonably interfere with the Business activities conducted at any facilities.

The Indemnitor shall be permitted (but not obligated), with the consent of Indemnitee (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), to conduct, manage and control through counsel, consultant and/or contractor of its choosing and reasonably acceptable to Indemnitee: (a) any interaction with, including, without limitation, any negotiation, of an agreement or settlement with, Governmental Authorities; (b) any Site Remediation; and (c) any claim, action proceeding, or investigation with respect to Purchaser Claims. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnitor shall be obligated to reasonably consult with the Indemnitee concerning the Indemnitor’s communications with any Governmental Authorities or third parties on issues which may materially prejudice the Indemnitee’s interests with respect to such matters. Furthermore, Purchaser agrees to promptly notify Seller Parent of any notice concerning any Site Remediation or Environmental Claim made by any party on or after the Closing Date.

Without limiting the generality or effect of the foregoing, as a material inducement to the other parties hereto entering into this Agreement, Purchaser hereby waives, from and after the Closing, any claim or cause of action, known and unknown, foreseen and unforeseen, which it or any of its Affiliates may have against Sellers and their Affiliates (including rights to indemnification or contribution, or any other rights or remedies), including without limitation under the common law or federal or state securities Laws, trade regulation Laws or other Laws (including any relating to Tax, environmental, real estate or employee matters), by reason of this Agreement, the events giving rise to this Agreement and the transactions provided for herein or contemplated hereby or thereby, except for claims or causes of action brought under and subject to the terms and conditions of the provisions contained in this Article 11 or in Schedule 11.6.

Seller Parent and Purchaser agree that all indemnification payments made in accordance with this Article 11 or Schedule 11.6 will be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the Initial Purchase Price.

12.

The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 12.21 shall not be required to provide any bond or other security, and each party irrevocably waives any right it may have to require such bond or security, in connection with any such order or injunction.
