Prior to the Effective Time, SpinCo shall designate a bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to Dana and GKN (the “Agent”) to act as the exchange agent for the holders of Dana Common Stock in connection with the Merger and to receive the Merger Consideration. Prior to or at the Effective Time, SpinCo shall deposit or cause to be deposited with the Agent for the benefit of the holders of shares of Dana Common Stock, for exchange in accordance with this Article III through the Agent, book entry authorizations representing the SpinCo Ordinary Shares to be so exchanged in accordance with this Agreement (such SpinCo Ordinary Shares, together with any dividends or distributions and other amounts payable in accordance with Section 3.2(c) to be held by the Agent in trust for the benefit of the holders of shares of Dana Common Stock, being the “Exchange Fund”). Any cash in the Exchange Fund shall be invested by the Agent as directed by SpinCo; provided that (i) no such investment or loss thereon will affect the amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement, and (ii) in the event that the Exchange Fund is for any reason insufficient to make the payments contemplated by this Agreement, SpinCo shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, promptly deposit additional funds with the Agent in an amount equal to such deficiency. Except as contemplated by Section 3.2(e), the Exchange Fund shall not be used for any purpose other than as specified in this Agreement. No later than ten Business Days prior to the Closing, SpinCo shall enter into an agreement with the Agent, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Dana and GKN, to effect the applicable terms of this Agreement (the “Agent Agreement”).

(b) Exchange Procedures.

(i) At the Effective Time, all issued and outstanding shares of Dana Common Stock (other than shares canceled in accordance with Section 3.1(a)(ii)) shall be converted into the right to receive SpinCo Ordinary Shares pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of this Agreement. Each Person shall be entitled to receive in respect of the shares of Dana Common Stock held by such Person as a book-entry authorization representing the number of SpinCo Ordinary Shares that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to this Section 3.2(b) (and any dividends or distributions and other amounts pursuant to Section 3.2(c)), unless a physical stock certificate is requested by such Person or is otherwise required by applicable Law, in which case SpinCo shall cause the Agent to send such physical stock certificate to such Person promptly in accordance with the Agent Agreement. The Agent shall not be entitled to vote or exercise any rights of ownership with respect to SpinCo Ordinary Shares held by it from time to time hereunder, except that it shall receive and hold all dividends or other distributions paid or distributed with respect thereto for the account of Persons entitled thereto.

(ii) Promptly after the Effective Time, SpinCo shall cause the Agent to mail to each holder of record of a certificate (a “Certificate”) in respect of shares of Dana Common Stock (other than shares of Dana Common Stock canceled pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(ii)) a letter of transmittal in customary form advising such holder of the effectiveness of the Merger and the conversion of its shares of Dana Common Stock into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, and specifying that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu of the Certificates as provided in Section 3.2(i)) and instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu of the Certificates as provided in Section 3.2(i)). Upon the surrender of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 3.2(i)) to the Agent in accordance with the terms of such transmittal materials, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the consideration provided for under Section 3.1(b)(i). No interest will be paid or accrued on any amount payable upon due surrender of the Certificates. In the event of a transfer of ownership of shares Dana Common Stock that is not registered in the transfer records of Dana, the consideration provided for under Section 3.1(b)(i) may be issued and/or paid to such a transferee if the Certificate formerly representing such shares is presented to the Agent, accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and to evidence that any applicable stock transfer taxes have been paid or are not applicable. If any SpinCo Ordinary Shares (or evidence of shares in book-entry form) are to be issued to a name other than that in which the Certificate surrendered in exchange therefor is registered, it shall be a condition of such exchange that the Person requesting such exchange shall pay any stock transfer or other Taxes required by reason of the issuance of SpinCo Ordinary Shares (or evidence of shares in book-entry form) in a name other than that of the registered holder of the Certificate surrendered, or shall establish to the satisfaction of SpinCo or the Agent that such Taxes have been paid or are not applicable.

(iii) Promptly after the Effective Time, SpinCo shall cause the Agent to mail to each holder of uncertificated shares of Dana Common Stock (other than shares of Dana Common Stock canceled pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(ii)) materials advising such holder of the effectiveness of the Merger and the conversion of its shares of Dana Common Stock into the right to receive the Merger Consideration provided under Section 3.1(b)(i).

(c) Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares. No dividends or other distributions payable with respect to SpinCo Ordinary Shares with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the former holders of Dana Common Stock with respect to any SpinCo Ordinary Shares that are not able to be exchanged by the Agent promptly after the Effective Time, whether due to a legal impediment to such exchange or otherwise. Subject to the effect of abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws, following the exchange of any such previously unexchanged SpinCo Ordinary Shares, there shall be paid to the record holder of such SpinCo Ordinary Shares, without interest, (i) at the time of the exchange, to the extent not previously paid, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time and a payment date prior to the exchange of such SpinCo Ordinary Shares payable with respect to such whole SpinCo Ordinary Shares and (ii) at the appropriate payment date therefor, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to the distribution of such SpinCo Ordinary Shares and with a payment date subsequent to the exchange of such SpinCo Ordinary Shares payable with respect to such SpinCo Ordinary Shares. SpinCo shall deposit in the Exchange Fund all such dividends and distributions.

(d) No Further Ownership Rights in Dana Common Stock. All SpinCo Ordinary Shares issued in respect of shares of Dana Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Dana Common Stock.

(e) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund made available to the Agent that remains unexchanged to the former holders of Dana Common Stock on the one-year anniversary of the Effective Time shall be delivered to SpinCo, and any former holders of Dana Common Stock who have not received SpinCo Ordinary Shares in accordance with this Article III shall thereafter look only to SpinCo for payment of their claim for SpinCo Ordinary Shares and any dividends or distributions with respect to SpinCo Ordinary Shares (subject to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law).

(f) No Liability. Neither GKN, the Surviving Corporation, Dana, Merger Sub, the Agent nor any other Person shall be liable to any holder of Dana Common Stock (or dividends or distributions with respect to Dana Common Stock) or cash properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. Any portion of the Exchange Fund remaining unclaimed by holders of Dana Common Stock as of a date which is immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Entity shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of SpinCo free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled to it.

(g) Closing of Transfer Books. From and after the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of Dana shall be closed and no transfer shall be made of any shares of capital stock of Dana that were outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(h) Tax Withholding. Dana, SpinCo, Merger Sub and the Agent shall each be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration or other amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Article III such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld therefrom under the Code or any other applicable Law, as determined by Dana, SpinCo, Merger Sub or the Agent in good faith. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and timely paid over to the appropriate Governmental Entity, such withheld amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

(i) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. If any Certificate representing shares of Dana Common Stock shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by SpinCo or the Agent, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such reasonable and customary amount as SpinCo or the Agent may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Agent shall, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, issue the consideration that would be payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 3.2(a)(i) had such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate been surrendered.

(j) No Appraisal Rights. In accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL, no appraisal rights shall be available to holders of Dana Common Stock in connection with the Merger.

Section 3.3 GKN Equity Awards. Each GKN Equity Award held by a Driveline Employee as of the Effective Time shall be treated as set forth in the Separation Agreement.

Section 3.4 Dana Equity Awards. Each Dana Equity Award held by a Dana Employee as of the Effective Time shall be adjusted as follows:

(a) Treatment of Outstanding Dana Options. Each Dana Option outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, as of the Effective Time, be adjusted such that it becomes an award to purchase SpinCo Ordinary Shares (the “SpinCo Options”)and the material terms and conditions shall otherwise be substantially similar to the terms and conditions applicable to the corresponding Dana Option immediately prior to the Merger; provided that (i) the number of SpinCo Ordinary Shares subject to each such SpinCo Option shall be equal to (x) the number of shares of Dana Common Stock subject to the corresponding Dana Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (y) the Exchange Ratio, with fractional shares rounded down to the nearest whole share, and (ii) the per-share exercise price of each such SpinCo Option shall be equal to (x) the per-share exercise price of the corresponding Dana Option immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by (y) the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent.

(b) Treatment of Outstanding Dana SARs. Each Dana SAR outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, as of the Effective Time, be adjusted such that it becomes an award in respect of SpinCo Ordinary Shares (the “SpinCo SARs”) and the material terms and conditions shall otherwise be substantially similar to the terms and conditions applicable to the corresponding Dana SAR immediately prior to the Merger; provided that (i) the number of SpinCo Ordinary Shares subject to each such SpinCo SAR shall be equal to (x) the number of shares of Dana Common Stock subject to the corresponding Dana SAR immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (y) the Exchange Ratio, with fractional shares rounded down to the nearest whole share, and (ii) the per-share strike price of each such SpinCo SAR shall be equal to (x) the per-share strike price of the corresponding Dana SAR immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by (y) the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent.

Each Dana RSU outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, as of the Effective Time, be substituted with time-based restricted stock units to be settled in SpinCo Ordinary Shares (“SpinCo RSUs”) and the material terms and conditions shall otherwise be substantially similar to the terms and conditions applicable to the corresponding Dana RSU immediately prior to the Merger. The number of SpinCo RSUs to which a holder of Dana RSUs is entitled pursuant to this Section 3.4(c) shall be equal to (i) the number of Dana RSUs held by such individual immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (ii) the Exchange Ratio.

(d) Treatment of Outstanding Dana PSUs. Each Dana PSU outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, as of the Effective Time, be substituted with performance-based restricted stock units to be settled in SpinCo Ordinary Shares (“SpinCo PSUs”) and the material terms and conditions shall otherwise be substantially similar to the terms and conditions applicable to the corresponding Dana PSU immediately prior to the Merger, except that (i) the performance metrics and targets, and (ii) the resulting achievement levels may be adjusted as determined by the Dana Board in good faith in consultation with GKN to be necessary. The target number of SpinCo PSUs to which a holder of Dana PSUs is entitled pursuant to this Section 3.4(d) shall be equal to (x) the target number of Dana PSUs held by such individual immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (y) the Exchange Ratio.

(e) Prior to the Effective Time, the Dana Board (or, if appropriate, any committee administering the Dana Equity Plans) shall adopt such resolutions and take such other actions as may be required to effect the treatment of the Dana Equity Awards described in paragraphs (a) through (d) of this Section 3.4.

Circular or any amendment or supplement thereto or at the time of the making of such announcement, to the knowledge of Dana, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. The Proxy Statement will comply as to form in all material respects with the provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder.

Section 6.20 Opinion of Financial Advisors. The Dana Board has received the written opinion of the Dana Financial Advisor to the effect that, as of the date of this Agreement and based on and subject to the assumptions, qualifications, limitations and other matters set forth therein, the Exchange Ratio, after giving effect to the Transactions, is fair, from a financial point of view, to the holders of Dana Common Stock. Dana shall, promptly following receipt of such written opinion, furnish an accurate and complete copy to GKN and SpinCo solely for informational purposes.

Section 6.21 Brokers. No broker, investment banker or other Person is entitled to any brokerage fee, finders’ fee or other similar commission for which GKN would be liable in connection with the Transactions based on arrangements made by or on behalf of Dana or any its Subsidiaries.

Section 6.22 Required Vote. The Dana Shareholder Approval is the only vote of the holders of any class or series of beneficial interest of Dana necessary to adopt this Agreement and the Separation Agreement and consummate the Transactions.

Section 6.23 Financing

(a) As of the date of this Agreement, Dana has received and accepted an executed commitment letter (including the exhibits, annexes and schedules thereto, the “Debt Commitment Letter”) from the financial institutions identified therein to provide, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, debt financing in the amounts set forth therein (the “Financing”). The Debt Commitment Letter may be assigned to SpinCo in connection with the consummation of the Transactions. Dana has delivered to GKN true and complete copies of the executed Debt Commitment Letter and the fee letter referenced in the Debt Commitment Letter (the “Fee Letter”) (except that the fee amounts, pricing caps, market flex terms and other economic terms set forth therein, none of which would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the conditionality, enforceability, availability, termination or aggregate principal amount (below the Required Amount) of the Financing, have been redacted). As of the date of this Agreement, Dana has fully paid any and all commitment fees or other fees in connection with the Debt Commitment Letter that are payable on or prior to the date hereof. Assuming the Financing is funded in accordance with the Debt Commitment Letter, the net proceeds contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter, together with Dana cash on hand, will in the aggregate be sufficient for Dana and SpinCo to pay the Cash Consideration (as may be adjusted pursuant to the Separation Agreement), any repayment or refinancing of Indebtedness contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter and any other amounts required to be paid by Dana or SpinCo in connection with the consummation of the Transactions and to pay all related fees and expenses of Dana and SpinCo required to be paid at Closing by Dana and SpinCo (the “Required Amount”). As of the date of this Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letter is (x) a legal, valid and binding obligation of Dana and, to the knowledge of Dana, each of the other parties thereto, (y) enforceable in

accordance with its terms against Dana and, to the knowledge of Dana, each of the other parties thereto, in each case subject to the Enforceability Exceptions and (z) in full force and effect. As of the date of this Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letter has not been amended or modified, and none of the obligations and commitments contained in the Debt Commitment Letter have been withdrawn, terminated or rescinded in any respect, and, to the knowledge of Dana, no such amendment, modification, withdrawal, termination or rescission is contemplated. As of the date of this Agreement, to the knowledge of Dana, no event has occurred which (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) would or would reasonably be expected to constitute a default or breach or a failure to satisfy a condition precedent on the part of Dana or any of the parties thereto under the Debt Commitment Letter. As of the date of this Agreement, assuming the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to Dana’s obligations to consummate the Transactions, Dana does not have any reason to believe that it will be unable to satisfy on a timely basis any term or condition of the Debt Commitment Letter required to be satisfied by it or that the full amount of the Financing will not be available on the Closing Date. The only conditions precedent or other contingencies related to the obligations of the Financing Sources to fund the full amount of the Financing on the Closing Date are those expressly set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter. There are no side letters or other Contracts or arrangements to which Dana or any of its Affiliates is a party related to the Financing on the Closing Date other than as expressly contained in the Debt Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter delivered to GKN prior to the date of this Agreement and any related customary agent fee letters, fee credit letters and engagement letters (which do not contain any terms that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the conditionality, availability, termination or aggregate principal amount (below the Required Amount) of the Financing).

(b) Without limiting Section 11.11, in no event shall the receipt or availability of any funds or financing (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Financing) by or to Dana or any of its Affiliates or any other financing transaction be a condition to any of the obligations of Dana under the Transaction Documents.

Section 6.24 Investigation; Limitation on Warranties; Disclaimer of Other Representations and Warranties. Dana has conducted its own independent review and analysis of the business, operations, assets, intellectual property, technology, liabilities, results of operations, financial condition and prospects of the Driveline Business and acknowledges that Dana has been provided access to personnel, properties, premises and records of GKN for such purposes. In entering into the Transaction Documents, Dana has relied solely upon its independent investigation and analysis of the Driveline Business, and Dana acknowledges and agrees that it has not been induced by and has not relied upon any representations, warranties or statements, whether express or implied, made by GKN, any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective Affiliates, shareholders, controlling persons, trustees or GKN representatives that are not expressly set forth in this Agreement and the Separation Agreement, whether or not such representations, warranties or statements were made in writing or orally. Dana acknowledges and agrees that, except for the representations and warranties of GKN expressly set forth in this Agreement and the Separation Agreement, (a) GKN does not make, and has not made, any representations or warranties relating to itself or the Driveline Business or otherwise in connection with the Transactions and Dana is not relying on any representation or warranty except for those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the Separation Agreement, (b) no Person has been authorized by GKN to make any representation or warranty relating to itself or

the Driveline Business or otherwise in connection with the Transactions, and if made, such representation or warranty must not be relied upon by Dana as having been authorized by such party, and (c) any estimates, projections, predictions, data, financial information, memoranda, presentations or any other materials or information provided or addressed to Dana or any of its representatives are not and shall not be deemed to be or include representations or warranties unless any such materials or information is the subject of an express representation or warranty of GKN set forth in this Agreement or the Separation Agreement.

Section 6.25 No Other Representations or Warranties. Except for the representations and warranties of Dana expressly set forth in this Agreement and the Separation Agreement, neither Dana nor any other Person makes any express or implied representation or warranty with respect to Dana or with respect to any other information provided to GKN in connection with the Transactions. Dana hereby disclaims any other express or implied representations or warranties. Dana is not, directly or indirectly, making any representations or warranties regarding any pro forma financial information, financial projections or other forward-looking information or statements of Dana or any of its Subsidiaries.

Section 7.3 Proxy Statement; U.S. Registration Statement; Circular.

(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement, the Parties shall jointly prepare, and as promptly as reasonably practicable after the delivery by GKN of the Audited Driveline Financial Statements, shall cause SpinCo to file with the SEC, the U.S. Registration Statement (which shall include the Proxy Statement in preliminary form). Each Party shall use its reasonable best efforts to (x) have the U.S. Registration Statement declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after such filing, (y) ensure that the U.S. Registration Statement complies in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the Exchange Act or Securities Act, and (z) keep the U.S. Registration Statement effective for so long as necessary to complete the Transactions. Each Party shall furnish all information concerning itself, its Affiliates and the holders of its capital stock to the other Parties and provide such other assistance as may be reasonably requested in connection with the preparation, filing and distribution of the Proxy Statement, and the preparation and filing of the U.S. Registration Statement. Each Party shall promptly notify the other Parties upon the receipt of any comments from the SEC or any request from the SEC for amendments or supplements to the U.S. Registration Statement or the Proxy Statement. Each Party shall, as promptly as practicable after receipt thereof, provide the other Parties with copies of all correspondence between it and its Representatives, on one hand, and the SEC, on the other hand, and all written comments with respect to the Proxy Statement or the U.S. Registration Statement received from the SEC. Each Party shall promptly advise the other Parties of any oral comments with respect to the Proxy Statement or the U.S. Registration Statement received from the SEC. The Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to respond as promptly as practicable to any comments from the SEC with respect to the U.S. Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to filing the U.S. Registration Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto), mailing the Proxy Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or responding to any comments of the SEC with respect to the U.S. Registration Statement, each Party shall cooperate and provide the other Parties with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such document or response (including the proposed final version of such document or response). SpinCo shall advise Dana and GKN,

promptly after it receives notice thereof, of the time of effectiveness of the U.S. Registration Statement, the issuance of any stop order relating thereto or the suspension of the qualification of the SpinCo Ordinary Shares issuable in connection with the Transactions for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, and the Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to have any such stop order or suspension lifted, reversed or otherwise terminated. SpinCo shall also take any other action required to be taken under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any applicable foreign or state securities or “blue sky” Laws in connection with the issuance of the SpinCo Ordinary Shares in the Transactions, and Dana and GKN shall furnish all information concerning Dana and the holders of the shares of Dana Common Stock, or GKN and the holders of the GKN Ordinary Shares, respectively, as may be reasonably requested in connection with any such actions.

(b) As promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement, GKN shall: (i) prepare (in accordance with the GKN Articles, the U.K. Listing Rules and other applicable Law) and file with the U.K. Listing Authority the Circular and use its reasonable best efforts to have the Circular approved by the U.K. Listing Authority as promptly as practicable taking into account Section 7.3(f) and the likely timing of the U.S. Registration Statement being declared effective by the SEC; and (ii) use its reasonable best efforts otherwise to comply with all legal requirements applicable to the GKN Shareholder Meeting. Dana shall provide GKN and its Representatives with such reasonable information and access in relation to the Dana business and such reasonable cooperation so as to enable GKN to prepare the Circular and any supplementary circular (including, in each case, all information required to verify the contents thereof in relation to Dana), which shall include all information required by the GKN Articles, the Listing Rules, and other applicable Laws to which GKN is subject. In connection with the Circular, Dana shall provide verification notes verifying the accuracy of statements of fact relating to Dana and Dana directors belief statements contained within the Circular.

(c) If, at any time prior to the Effective Time, any information relating to GKN, SpinCo, Merger Sub or Dana, or any of their respective Affiliates, should be discovered by any Party which, in the reasonable judgment of such Party, should be set forth in an amendment of, or a supplement to, any of the U.S. Registration Statement, the Proxy Statement or the Circular, so that any of such documents would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, then the Party which discovers such information shall promptly notify the other Parties, and the Parties shall cooperate in the prompt filing with the SEC (or in the case of an amendment or supplement to the Circular, the U.K. Listing Authority) of any necessary amendment of, or supplement to, the Proxy Statement, the U.S. Registration Statement or the Circular and, to the extent required by Law, in disseminating the information contained in such amendment or supplement to shareholders of GKN and Dana. Nothing in this Section 7.3(c) shall limit the obligations of any Party under Section 7.3(a). For purposes of this Section 7.3, any information concerning or related to GKN, its Affiliates, the Driveline Business or the GKN Shareholder Meeting will be deemed to have been provided by GKN, and any information concerning or related to Dana, its Affiliates or the business or operation of SpinCo following the consummation of the Transactions or the Dana Shareholder Meeting will be deemed to have been provided by Dana.

(d) As promptly as practicable following the date of this Agreement, GKN shall, in accordance with applicable Law and the GKN Articles, publish the Circular, which shall include a notice of the GKN Shareholder Meeting. Subject to Section 7.3(f), GKN shall use its reasonable best efforts to hold the GKN Shareholder Meeting as soon as practicable after the Circular is approved and stamped by the U.K. Listing Authority. GKN shall, through the GKN Board, make the GKN Board Recommendation and include the GKN Board Recommendation in the Circular, and shall solicit and use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the GKN Shareholder Approval. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.3(d):

(i) if, on a date for which the GKN Shareholder Meeting is scheduled, GKN has not received proxies representing a sufficient number of GKN Ordinary Shares to obtain the GKN Shareholder Approval, or if necessary to comply with applicable Law, whether or not a quorum is present, GKN shall have the right to make one or more successive postponements or adjournments of the GKN Shareholder Meeting; provided that the GKN Shareholder Meeting is not postponed or adjourned to a date that is more than thirty (30) days after the date for which the GKN Shareholder Meeting was originally scheduled (excluding any adjournments or postponements required by applicable Law); and

(ii) at any time prior to the GKN Shareholder Meeting, the GKN Board may effect an Adverse Recommendation Change if the GKN Board determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel and financial advisors, that failure to effect an Adverse Recommendation Change would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Laws; provided, however, that the GKN Board may not effect an Adverse Recommendation Change unless (A) GKN has delivered to Dana prior written notice of the GKN Board’s intention to effect an Adverse Recommendation Change as far in advance of taking such action as is reasonably practicable, which notice shall specify (x) in the case of a proposed Adverse Recommendation Change based on the receipt of a proposal for a GKN Alternative Transaction, the material terms of the proposed Alternative Transaction and the identity of the Person proposing the Alternative Transaction, or (y) in the case of a proposed Adverse Recommendation Change not involving a GKN Alternative Transaction, a reasonably detailed summary of the basis for such Adverse Recommendation Change (and GKN shall keep Dana reasonably informed of any material developments with respect thereto); (B) after providing such notice and to the extent reasonably practicable prior to effecting an Adverse Recommendation Change, GKN has negotiated, and shall have caused its Representatives to negotiate, with Dana in good faith (to the extent Dana desires to negotiate) to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of the Transaction Documents that the failure of the GKN Board to effect an Adverse Recommendation Change would not be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Laws; and (C) the GKN Board has considered in good faith any changes to the Transaction Documents that may be offered in writing by Dana to the extent reasonably practicable prior to effecting an Adverse Recommendation Change and, after such consideration, has determined in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel and financial advisers, that the GKN Board’s failure to effect an Adverse Recommendation Change continues to be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Laws.

(e) As promptly as practicable following the date of this Agreement and subject to Section 7.3(f), Dana shall, in accordance with applicable Law and the Dana Governing Documents, establish a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold the Dana Shareholder Meeting. Dana shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Proxy Statement to be mailed to the shareholders of Dana entitled to vote at the Dana Shareholder

Meeting and to hold the Dana Shareholder Meeting as soon as practicable after the U.S. Registration Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act. Dana shall, through the Dana Board, make the Dana Board Recommendation and include the Dana Board Recommendation in the Proxy Statement, and solicit and use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the Dana Shareholder Approval. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.3(e):

(i) if, on a date for which the Dana Shareholder Meeting is scheduled, Dana has not received proxies representing a sufficient number of Dana Common Stock to obtain the Dana Shareholder Approval, or if necessary to comply with applicable Law, whether or not a quorum is present, Dana shall have the right to make one or more successive postponements or adjournments of the Dana Shareholder Meeting; provided that the Dana Shareholder Meeting is not postponed or adjourned to a date that is more than thirty (30) days after the date for which the Dana Shareholder Meeting was originally scheduled (excluding any adjournments or postponements required by applicable Law); and

(ii) at any time prior to the Dana Shareholder Meeting, the Dana Board may effect an Adverse Recommendation Change if the Dana Board determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel and financial advisors, that failure to effect an Adverse Recommendation Change would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Laws; provided, however, that the Dana Board may not effect an Adverse Recommendation Change unless (A) Dana has delivered to GKN prior written notice of the Dana Board’s intention to effect an Adverse Recommendation Change as far in advance of taking such action as practicable, which notice shall specify (x) in the case of a proposed Adverse Recommendation Change based on the receipt of a proposal for a Dana Alternative Transaction, the material terms of the proposed Alternative Transaction and shall include a copy of the relevant proposed transaction agreements with, and the identity of, the Person proposing the Alternative Transaction, or (y) in the case of a proposed Adverse Recommendation Change not involving an Dana Alternative Transaction, a reasonably detailed summary of the basis for such Adverse Recommendation Change (and Dana shall keep GKN reasonably informed of any material developments with respect thereto); (B) after providing such notice and to the extent reasonably practicable prior to effecting an Adverse Recommendation Change, Dana has negotiated, and shall have caused its Representatives to negotiate, with GKN in good faith (to the extent GKN desires to negotiate) to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of the Transaction Documents that the failure of the Dana Board to effect an Adverse Recommendation Change would not be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Laws; and (C) the Dana Board has considered in good faith any changes to the Transaction Documents that may be offered in writing by GKN to the extent reasonably practicable prior to effecting an Adverse Recommendation Change and, after such consideration, has determined in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel and financial advisers, that that the Dana Board’s failure to effect an Adverse Recommendation Change continues to be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Laws.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.3, GKN and Dana will use their respective reasonable best efforts to hold the GKN Shareholder Meeting and the Dana Shareholder Meeting on the same date and as soon as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement.

Section 7.4 Permitted GKN Transaction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement (including in Section 7.1), GKN shall be permitted to enter into any agreement with respect to or consummate any Permitted GKN Transaction.

ARTICLE VIII

ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS

Section 8.1 Access; Confidentiality; Notice of Certain Events.

(a) From the date of this Agreement until the Effective Time or the date, if any, on which this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10.1, each of GKN and Dana shall, and shall cause each of their respective Subsidiaries to, consider in good faith any requests to give the other Party, their officers and a reasonable number of their employees and their authorized Representatives, such access, during normal business hours, to their contracts, books, records, analysis, projections, plans, systems, senior management, commitments, offices and other facilities and properties, as may be reasonably requested by the other Party for the purpose of providing for the orderly integration of the Driveline Business and the business of Dana following the consummation of the Transactions; provided that GKN and its Subsidiaries shall not be required to consider any such request to provide any such access to Dana to the extent not related to the Driveline Business. All such access shall be coordinated through the disclosing Party or its Representatives in accordance with such procedures as they may reasonably establish. The terms of the Confidentiality Agreement shall apply to any information provided pursuant to this Section 8.1. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 8.1(a), none of GKN or Dana shall be required to (i) provide access to, or to disclose information, to the extent such access or disclosure would (A) jeopardize the attorney-client or similar privilege of the disclosing Party or any of its Subsidiaries, (B) contain information about the disclosing Party’s strategic inquiries, plans or processes, including the process leading to the negotiation and entry into this Agreement, (C) contravene any applicable Law (including with respect to any competitively sensitive information, if any) or contractual restriction, or (D) violate any of its obligations with respect to confidentiality (provided that, in the case of clause (A), the withholding party may use reasonable best efforts to allow such access or disclosure in a manner that does not result in loss or waiver of such privilege, including entering into appropriate common interest or similar agreements and, in the cause of clause (D), the withholding party may use reasonable best efforts to obtain the required consent of any third party to such access or disclosure), (ii) provide access to the other Party or any of their respective officers, employees or Representatives for the purpose of conducting any sampling of the environment or of building materials or (iii) provide access to the other Party except to the extent such access does not unreasonably disrupt the normal operations of the Party providing access. GKN or Dana may, as each deems advisable and necessary, reasonably designate any competitively sensitive material provided to the other under this Section 8.1(a) as “Antitrust Counsel Only Material”.

(b) Each Party shall give the other Parties prompt notice (i) of any notice or other communication received by such Party from any Governmental Entity in connection with this Agreement and the Separation Agreement, the Merger or the other Transactions, or from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person (or another Person) is

or may be required in connection with the Merger or the other Transactions, if the subject matter of such communication or the failure of such Party to obtain such consent would reasonably be expected to be material to the Driveline Business or Dana, (ii) of any Legal Proceeding commenced or, to any Party’s knowledge, threatened against, such Party or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, in each case, in connection with, arising from or otherwise relating to the Merger or any other Transaction or (iii) upon becoming aware of the occurrence or impending occurrence of any Effect, which could reasonably be expected to have a Driveline Material Adverse Effect or a Dana Material Adverse Effect, as the case may be.

Section 8.2 Efforts; Consents and Approvals.

(a) Subject to Section 8.2(b), each of Dana and GKN shall (i) use their respective reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other Parties in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law to consummate and make effective the Transactions as promptly as practicable and in any event prior to the Outside Date including the obtaining of all necessary actions, waivers, registrations, permits, authorizations, orders, consents and approvals from Governmental Entities, the expiry or early termination of any applicable waiting periods, and the making of all necessary registrations and filings (including filings with Governmental Entities, if any) and the taking of all steps as may be reasonably necessary to obtain an approval or waiver from, or to avoid an action or proceeding by, any Governmental Entities, (ii) use reasonable best efforts to cause the conditions to the consummation of the Share Purchase, Distribution and Merger set forth in Article IX to be satisfied as promptly as reasonably practicable (including, in the case of GKN, implementing the Pre-Completion Reorganisation at or prior to the Closing), and (iii) use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all other actions and do, or cause to be done, and cooperate with each other in order to do, all other things reasonably necessary or appropriate to cause the Closing to occur and to consummate the Transactions as soon as practicable; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, none of the Parties shall be obligated or required by this Section 8.2(a) to waive a condition to the consummation of the Share Purchase, Distribution and Merger set forth in Article IX or in clause 3 of the Separation Agreement.

(b) Without limiting the generality of Section 8.2(a), Dana, on the one hand, and GKN, on the other hand, shall, in connection with the efforts referenced in this Section 8.2 to obtain all authorizations for the Transactions under any applicable competition or foreign investment Law (collectively, the “Antitrust Laws”), (i) as soon as reasonably practicable, each prepare and file any pre-merger notification required under the HSR Act to be filed with the Federal Trade Commission and the U.S. Department of Justice and in no event later than fifteen Business Days after the date of this Agreement and (ii) promptly provide any supplemental information requested or required by a Governmental Entity in connection with such a notification in substantial compliance with applicable Antitrust Laws.

person, (B) have the right to review in advance, and to the extent practicable each shall consult the other on, any material filing made with, or written materials to be submitted to, any Governmental Entity in connection with the Transactions and of any material communication received or given in connection with any proceeding by a private Person, in each case, regarding any of the Transactions, (C) promptly inform each other of any material communication (or any other material correspondence or memoranda) received from, or given to, the United States Department of Justice or the United States Federal Trade Commission or any other applicable Governmental Entity and (D) promptly furnish each other with copies of all correspondence, filings and written communications between them or their Subsidiaries or Affiliates, on the one hand, and any Governmental Entity or its respective staff, on the other hand, with respect to the Transactions. Each Party shall (with respect to any in person discussion or meeting), and shall to the extent practicable (with respect to any telephonic discussion or meeting), provide each other Party and its counsel with advance notice of and the opportunity to participate in any material discussion or meeting with any Governmental Entity in respect of any filing, investigation or other inquiry in connection with the Transactions.

(c) To the extent reasonably necessary and consistent with the Parties’ obligations in Section 8.2(a), the Parties shall be required to (i) propose, negotiate, commit to, effect and agree to, by consent decree, hold separate order or otherwise, the sale, divestiture, license, holding separate, and other disposition of and restriction on the businesses, assets, properties, product lines, and equity interests of, or changes to the conduct of business of any of the Parties, (ii) create, terminate or divest relationships, ventures, contractual rights or obligations of any of the Parties, and (iii) otherwise take or commit to take any action that would limit any Party’s freedom of action with respect to, or its ability to retain or hold, directly or indirectly, any businesses, assets, equity interests, product lines or properties of each Party’s business (each of the foregoing actions, a “Divestiture Action”) so long as any such Divestiture Action, or all Divestiture Actions collectively, would not result in a material adverse effect on the business, results of operations, assets or financial condition of Dana and the Driveline Business, taken as a whole. GKN shall not be required to, and Dana shall not be permitted to, take, offer to take or commit to take, any of the foregoing actions referred to in clauses (c)(i) through (iii) involving any businesses, assets, equity interests, product lines or properties of GKN and its Subsidiaries other than the Driveline Business. The Parties agree that the proceeds of any Divestiture Action shall be retained by a Driveline Subsidiary or Dana, as applicable.

(d) In furtherance and not in limitation of the covenants of the Parties contained in Section 8.2(a), if any objections are asserted with respect to the Transactions under any Antitrust Law or if any suit or investigation is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) by any applicable Governmental Entity or any private party challenging the Merger or any of the other Transactions as violative of any Antitrust Law or which would otherwise prevent, impede or delay the consummation of the Transactions, the Parties shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to cooperate with each other and resolve any such objections or suits so as to permit consummation of the Transactions.

(e) The Parties shall reasonably cooperate with each other and use their respective reasonable best efforts to take such actions as the other may reasonably request to (i) consummate the Pre-Completion Reorganisation and (ii) obtain any consents from any third parties (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any Governmental Entity) as may be

reasonably required to consummate the Merger or the other Transactions; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties shall not be required to incur any expenses or liabilities, including the incurrence of interest or the payment of additional fees or penalties, or make any payments or expenditures, in order to obtain the consents set forth in this Section 8.2(e); provided, further, that the consummation of the Transactions shall not be delayed by, or conditioned on, the receipt or failure to receive of any such consents. The Parties will consider in good faith any proposed amendments to the structure of the Pre-Completion Reorganisation.

Section 8.3 Publicity. So long as this Agreement is in effect, none of the Parties, or any of their respective Affiliates, shall issue or cause the publication of any press release or other announcement with respect to this Agreement, the Separation Agreement or the Transactions (other than an Adverse Recommendation Change made in accordance with Section 7.3(d) or Section 7.3(e), as applicable) without the prior written consent of the other Parties, unless such Party determines, after consultation with outside counsel, that it is required by applicable Law or by any listing agreement with, or the listing rules of, a national securities exchange or trading market to issue or cause the publication of any press release or other announcement with respect to the Transactions, this Agreement or the Separation Agreement, in which event such Party shall provide a reasonable opportunity to the other Parties to review and comment upon such press release or other announcement and shall give due consideration to all reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested thereto; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to any release or other public statement to the extent containing information that is consistent with any other release or public statement previously issued or made in accordance with this Section 8.3.

Section 8.4 Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance and Indemnification.

(a) After the Effective Time, SpinCo shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation and each of its Subsidiaries to, assume, honor and fulfill in all respects the obligations of Dana, each Subsidiary of Dana, each Driveline Subsidiary, SpinCo and each Subsidiary of SpinCo to each individual who at the Effective Time is, or at any time prior to the Effective Time was, a director, officer, employee or agent of Dana, such Subsidiary of Dana, such Driveline Subsidiary, SpinCo or such Subsidiary of SpinCo, as applicable, (a “Covered Person”) in respect of indemnification and exculpation from liabilities for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time as provided under the organizational or governing documents of Dana, such Subsidiary of Dana, such Driveline Subsidiary, SpinCo or such Subsidiary of SpinCo, in each case, as in effect on the date hereof and under any agreement in existence as of the date of this Agreement providing for indemnification between Dana, such Subsidiary of Dana, such Driveline Subsidiary, SpinCo or such Subsidiary of SpinCo and any Covered Person in effect on the date hereof (the “Indemnification Agreements”) to the individuals entitled to indemnification, exculpation and/or advancement of expenses under such organizational or governing documents or Indemnification Agreements arising out of or relating to actions or omissions in their capacity as such occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, including in connection with the consideration, negotiation and approval of this Agreement and the Transactions.

(b) Without limiting the provisions of Section 8.4(a), for a period of six years after the Effective Time (and until such later date as of which any matter covered hereby commenced during such six year period shall have been finally disposed of), SpinCo shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law: (i) indemnify and hold harmless each Covered Person against and from any costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, liabilities and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, to the extent such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation arises out of or pertains to: (A) any action or omission or alleged action or omission in such Covered Person’s capacity as such prior to the Effective Time, or (B) this Agreement and any of the Transactions; and (ii) pay in advance of the final disposition of any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) of any Covered Person upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Covered Person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such Covered Person is not entitled to be indemnified. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 8.4 or elsewhere in this Agreement, SpinCo and the Surviving Corporation (x) shall not be liable for any settlement effected without their prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), (y) shall not have any obligation under this Agreement to any Covered Person to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine in a final and non-appealable order that such indemnification is prohibited by applicable Law, in which case the Covered Person shall promptly refund to SpinCo or the Surviving Corporation the amount of all such expenses theretofore advanced pursuant thereto (unless such court orders otherwise) and (z) shall not settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment or otherwise seek termination with respect to any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation of a Covered Person for which indemnification may be sought under this Section 8.4(b) unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination includes an unconditional release of such Covered Person from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation and does not include any admission of liability with respect to such Covered Person or such Covered Person consents in writing.

(c) For a period of six years after the Effective Time (and until such later date as of which any matter covered hereby commenced during such six year period shall have been finally disposed of), the organizational and governing documents of the Surviving Corporation, SpinCo and its Subsidiaries shall contain provisions no less favorable with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation of Covered Persons for periods prior to and including the Effective Time than are currently set forth in such documents and shall not contain any provision to the contrary.

Dana shall deliver to GKN true and complete copies of all Contracts or other arrangements pursuant to which any such alternative source shall have committed to provide any portion of the Financing (except in the case of customary fee letters where fee amounts, market flex terms, pricing caps and other economic terms set forth therein, none of which would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the conditionality, enforceability, availability, termination or aggregate principal amount (below the Required Amount) of any such alternative financing, may be redacted).

(x) taking all corporate and other actions, subject to the occurrence of the Closing, reasonably requested by Dana to (A) subject to Section 8.10(f) below, permit the consummation of the Financing and (B) cause the direct borrowing or incurrence of all of the proceeds of the Financing, including any high-yield debt financing, by SpinCo or any of its Subsidiaries concurrently with or immediately following the Effective Time.

(d) Each Party hereby consents to the use of its and its Subsidiaries’ logos in connection with the Financing, provided that such logos are used solely in a manner that is not intended to or reasonably likely to harm or disparage such Party or its Subsidiaries or the reputation or goodwill of such Party or its Subsidiaries.

(e) GKN will use its reasonable best efforts, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to use its respective reasonable best efforts, to update any Required Information provided to Dana and the Financing Sources as may be necessary so that such Required Information (i) is Compliant, (ii) meets the applicable requirements set forth in the definition of “Required Information” and (iii) would not, after giving effect to such update(s), cause the Marketing Period to cease pursuant to the definition of “Marketing Period.” For the avoidance of doubt, Dana may, to most effectively access the financing markets, require the cooperation of GKN and its Subsidiaries under this Section 8.10 at any time, and from time to time and on multiple occasions, between the date hereof and the Closing Date; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Marketing Period shall not be applicable as to each attempt to access the markets.

For the avoidance of doubt, none of GKN or its Subsidiaries (other than SpinCo) or any of their respective officers, directors (with respect to any Subsidiary of GKN) or employees shall be required to execute or enter into or perform any agreement with respect to the Financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter that is not contingent upon the Closing or that would be effective prior to the Closing (other than the execution of representation letters and authorization letters) and no directors or officers of GKN that will not be continuing directors or officers, acting in such capacity, shall be required to execute or enter into or perform any agreement with respect to the Financing. Dana shall promptly, upon request by GKN, reimburse GKN for all documented and reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including (A) reasonable attorney’s fees and (B) fees and expenses of GKN’s accounting firms engaged to assist in connection with the Financing, including performing additional requested procedures, reviewing any offering documents, participating in any meetings and providing any comfort letters) incurred by GKN or any of its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives in connection with the Financing, including the cooperation of GKN and its Subsidiaries and Representatives contemplated by this Section 8.10, and shall indemnify and hold harmless GKN, its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives in connection with the Financing, including the cooperation of GKN, its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives from and against any and all losses, damages, claims, costs or expenses suffered or incurred by any of them in connection with the arrangement of the Financing and any information used in connection therewith (other than with respect to any historical information provided by GKN or any of its Subsidiaries), except to the extent any of the foregoing was suffered or incurred as a result of the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of GKN or its Subsidiaries, or in each case, their respective Representatives.

TERMINATION

Section 10.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated and the Merger and the other Transactions may be abandoned (except as otherwise provided below, whether before or after receipt of the GKN Shareholder Approval or Dana Shareholder Approval, if applicable) only as follows:

(a) by mutual written consent of Dana and GKN;

(b) prior to the Share Purchase Time, by either Dana or GKN, if there has been a breach by the other Party of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement and the Separation Agreement, which breach (i) in the case of a breach by GKN would result in the conditions in Section 9.2(a) or Section 9.2(b) not being satisfied and (ii) in the case of a breach by Dana, would result in the conditions in Section 9.3(a) or Section 9.3(b) not being satisfied (and, in each case, such breach is not curable prior to the Outside Date, or if curable prior to the Outside Date, has not been cured within the earlier of (x) thirty (30) calendar days after the receipt of notice thereof by the defaulting Party from the non-defaulting Party or (y) three (3) Business Days before the Outside Date); provided, however, this Agreement may not be terminated pursuant to this Section 10.1(b) by any Party if such Party is then in material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement and the Separation Agreement;

(c) prior to the Share Purchase Time, by either Dana or GKN, if the Share Purchase Time shall not have occurred by 11:59 p.m., New York time, on the Outside Date; provided that in the event the Marketing Period has commenced but has not yet ended by such date, then the Outside Date shall automatically be extended to the date that is three Business Days following the then-scheduled end date of the Marketing Period; provided, further, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1(c) shall not be available to any Party whose breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement or the Separation Agreement has been the primary cause of, or resulted in, the Share Purchase Time not occurring prior to the Outside Date;

(d) prior to the Share Purchase Time, by either GKN or Dana, if a Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction (in a jurisdiction material to the business of GKN or Dana), shall have issued a final, non-appealable Order, in each case permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the Merger or other Transactions; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1(d) shall not be available to any Party whose failure to comply with any provision of this Agreement or the Separation Agreement has been the primary cause of, or resulted in, such Order;

(e) prior to the Share Purchase Time, by (i) Dana, if the GKN Board effects an Adverse Recommendation Change or (ii) either GKN or Dana, if the GKN Shareholder Approval shall not have been obtained at the GKN Shareholder Meeting or at any adjournment or postponement thereof, in each case, at which a vote on such approval was taken;

(f) prior to the Share Purchase Time, by (i) GKN, if the Dana Board effects an Adverse Recommendation Change, or (ii) either GKN or Dana, if the Dana Shareholder Approval shall not have been obtained at the Dana Shareholder Meeting or at any adjournment or postponement thereof, in each case, at which a vote on such approval was taken;

(g) prior to the Share Purchase Time, by GKN or Dana if the Melrose Offer shall have become or been declared wholly unconditional; or

(h) prior to the Share Purchase Time, by GKN or Dana if the condition set forth in Section 9.1(c)(ii) shall not have been satisfied prior to the Outside Date and all other conditions have been satisfied (or, in the case of conditions that by their terms can only be satisfied at the Closing, are capable of being satisfied if the Closing were to occur at the time of termination).

Section 10.2 Effect of Termination.

(a) In the event of the termination of this Agreement by GKN or Dana as provided in Section 10.1, written notice thereof shall forthwith be given to the other Party specifying the provision hereof pursuant to which such termination is made, and this Agreement shall forthwith become null and void and there shall be no liability (except as provided in Section 8.10(f) or this Section 10.2) on the part of any Party, except that the Confidentiality Agreement, Section 8.10(f), this Section 10.2 and Section 11.1 through Section 11.11 shall survive such termination.

(b) In the event that:

(i) (A) a GKN Alternative Transaction shall have been publicly made, proposed or disclosed and not withdrawn, after the date of this Agreement and prior to the GKN Shareholder Meeting, and (B) this Agreement is terminated by GKN or Dana pursuant to Section 10.1(c), then GKN shall pay the Termination Fee as directed by Dana by wire transfer of same day funds within two (2) Business Days following such termination;

(ii) (A) a Dana Alternative Transaction shall have been publicly made, proposed or disclosed and not withdrawn, after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Dana Shareholders Meeting, and (B) this Agreement is terminated by GKN or Dana pursuant to Section 10.1(c), then Dana shall pay the Termination Fee as directed by GKN by wire transfer of same day funds within two (2) Business Days following such termination;

(iii) this Agreement is terminated (A) by Dana pursuant to Section 10.1(b) or (B) by GKN or Dana pursuant to Section 10.1(e) or Section 10.1(h), then GKN shall pay the Termination Fee, as directed by Dana by wire transfer of same day funds, within two (2) Business Days after such termination (and the exercise of a termination right by Dana under Section 10.1(h) shall take precedence over the exercise of a termination right under Section 10.1(c) by any Party such that, in circumstances where both termination rights are exercised, the Termination Fee shall be payable under this Section (iii));

(iv) this Agreement is terminated (A) by GKN pursuant to Section 10.1(b) or (B) by GKN or Dana pursuant to Section 10.1(f)(ii), then Dana shall pay the Termination Fee, as directed by GKN by wire transfer of same day funds, within two (2) Business Days after such termination;

(v) this Agreement is terminated by GKN pursuant to Section 10.1(f)(i), then Dana shall pay the Specified Termination Fee, as directed by GKN by wire transfer of same day funds, within two (2) Business Days after such termination (and the exercise of a termination right by GKN under Section 10.1(f)(i) shall take precedence over the exercise of a termination right under Section 10.1(f)(ii) by any Party such that, in circumstances where both termination rights are exercised, the Specified Termination Fee shall be payable under this Section (v));

(vi) this Agreement is terminated by GKN or Dana pursuant to Section 10.1(g) and prior to the Melrose Offer having become or been declared unconditional as to acceptances, the GKN Board has recommended that the GKN Shareholders accept the Melrose Offer, then GKN shall pay the Termination Fee, as directed by Dana by wire transfer of same day funds, within two (2) Business Days after such termination; or

(vii) this Agreement is terminated by GKN or Dana pursuant to Section 10.1(g) (other than in the circumstances set forth in clause (vi) above), then GKN shall pay the Melrose Termination Fee, as directed by Dana by wire transfer of same day funds, within two (2) Business Days after such termination.

(c) In no event shall Section 10.2(b) require (x) GKN to pay an aggregate amount in excess of the Termination Fee or the Melrose Termination Fee, as applicable, or (y) Dana to pay an aggregate amount in excess of the Termination Fee or the Specified Termination Fee, as applicable, in each case except as set forth in Section 10.2(d). In no event shall GKN be required to pay the Termination Fee more than once or both the Termination Fee and the Melrose Termination Fee. In no event shall Dana be required to pay the Termination Fee more than once or both the Termination Fee and the Specified Termination Fee.

(d) If either GKN or Dana fails to pay any amounts due to the other Party under Section 10.2(b) on the dates specified, then the defaulting party shall pay all costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred by such other Party in connection with any action or proceeding (including the filing of any lawsuit) taken by it to collect such unpaid amounts, together with interest thereon on such unpaid amounts at the prime lending rate prevailing at such time, as published in the Wall Street Journal, from the date such amounts were required to be paid until the date actually received by such other Party.

(e) Each Party acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 10.2 are an integral part of the Transactions and that none of the Termination Fee, the Specified Termination Fee or the Melrose Termination Fee, as applicable, is a penalty, but rather are liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate Dana or GKN, as applicable, in the circumstances in which any such fee is payable by GKN or Dana, as applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, other than as set forth in Section 10.2(a) or Dana’s right to specific performance in accordance with Section 11.11, (i) Dana’s right to receive payment of the Termination Fee or the Melrose Termination Fee, as applicable, from GKN (in circumstances where it is payable hereunder) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of Dana against GKN and its Subsidiaries and any of their respective former, current or future officers, trustees, directors, partners, shareholders, managers, members, Affiliates or agents for the loss suffered as a result of the failure of the Merger to be consummated and (ii) upon payment of such amount in accordance with Section 10.2, none of GKN and any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective former, current or future officers, directors, partners, shareholders, managers, members, Affiliates or agents shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Separation Agreement or the Transactions (including with respect to specific performance). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, other than as set forth in Section 8.10(f), Section 10.2(a) or GKN’s right to specific performance in accordance with Section 11.11, (A) GKN’s right to receive payment of the Termination Fee or the Specified Termination Fee, as applicable, from Dana (in circumstances where it is payable hereunder) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of GKN against the Financing Sources, Dana and its Subsidiaries and any of their respective former, current or future officers, directors, partners, shareholders, managers, members, Affiliates or agents for the loss suffered as a result of the failure of the Merger to be consummated and (B) upon payment of such amount in accordance with Section 10.2, none of Dana, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective former, current or future officers, trustees, directors, partners, shareholders, managers, members, Affiliates or agents shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Separation Agreement or the Transactions (including with respect to specific performance). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no GKN Related Party shall have any rights or claims against any Financing Sources in connection with this Agreement, the Financing or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, whether at law or equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise; provided that the foregoing will not limit the rights of the parties to any commitment letter or other agreement related to the Financing under such commitment letter or other agreement (including of SpinCo to the extent the Debt Commitment Letter has been assigned to SpinCo). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no Financing Sources shall be subject to any special, consequential, punitive or indirect damages or damages of a tortious nature with respect to actions in connection with the Financing.

Section 11.1 Amendment and Modification; Waiver.

(a) Subject to applicable Law and except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, this Agreement may be amended, modified and supplemented, whether before or

after receipt of the GKN Shareholder Approval or Dana Shareholder Approval, as applicable, by written agreement of the GKN and Dana (by action taken by their respective boards of directors); provided, however, that after the receipt of the Dana Shareholder Approval or the GKN Shareholder Approval, no amendment, modification or supplement shall be made which by Law requires further approval by such shareholders without obtaining such further approval. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of GKN and Dana.

(b) At any time and from time to time prior to the Effective Time, each of GKN and Dana may, to the extent legally allowed and except as otherwise set forth herein, (i) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other Party or Parties, as applicable, (ii) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties made to it by the other Party contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto, and (iii) waive compliance with any of the covenants, agreements or conditions for its benefit contained herein. Any agreement on the part of GKN or Dana, as applicable, to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on its behalf. Any delay in exercising any right under this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Sections 10.2(a), 10.2(e), 11.6(b), 11.8 and 11.9 and this Section 11.1(c) (and any other provision of this Agreement to the extent an amendment, supplement, waiver or other modification of such provision would modify the substance of such Sections, to the extent such Sections are applicable to the Financing Sources) may not be amended, supplement, waived or otherwise modified in a manner adverse to a Financing Source without the prior written consent of such Financing Source.

Section 11.2 Non-Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants. None of (a) the representations and warranties and (b) covenants and agreements, to the extent such covenants and agreements apply to the period between the date hereof and the Effective Time, contained in this Agreement or in any certificate, instrument or other document delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Effective Time. Following the Effective Time, no action may be brought by any party claiming (1) any breach of any such representation and warranty or (2) any breach prior to the Effective Time of any such covenant or agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing in this Section 11.2 shall apply to the Separation Agreement.

Section 11.6 Entire Agreement; Third-Party Beneficiaries.

(a) This Agreement (including the GKN Disclosure Letter and the Dana Disclosure Letter), the Separation Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement, including any related annexes, Exhibits and Schedules hereto and thereto, constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties or any of them with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

(b) Except as provided in Section 8.4, none of this Agreement (including the GKN Disclosure Letter and the Dana Disclosure Letter), the Separation Agreement or the Confidentiality Agreement are intended to confer upon any Person other than the Parties any rights or remedies hereunder, except that the Financing Sources shall be express third party beneficiaries of Sections 10.2(a), 10.2(e), 11.1(c), 11.8 and 11.9 and this Section 11.6(b), each of such Sections shall expressly inure to the benefit of the Financing Sources and the Financing Sources shall be entitled to rely on and enforce the provisions of such Sections.

Section 11.7 Severability.

Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the Transactions are fulfilled to the extent possible.

Section 11.8 Governing Law; Jurisdiction.

(a) This Agreement and the Financing, and all claims or causes of actions that may be based upon, arise out of or related to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or the Financing, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of New York without giving effect to conflicts of laws principles (except (i) for the duties of the members of the GKN Board and SpinCo Board, which shall be governed by the Laws of England and Wales, (ii) for the duties of the members of the Dana Board, which shall be governed by the Laws of Delaware and (iii) to the extent the DGCL shall be held to govern the Merger).

(b) Each of the Parties and the GKN Related Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state of federal court sitting in New York County, in the State of New York, and any appellate court from any appeal thereof, in any Legal Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Financing or the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. Each of the Parties and the GKN Related Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (i) agrees not to commence any such Legal Proceeding except in such courts, (ii) agrees that any claim in respect of any such Legal Proceeding may be heard and determined in such courts, (iii) waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such Legal Proceeding in such courts, and (iv) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such Legal Proceeding in such courts. Each of the Parties and the GKN Related Parties agrees that a final judgment in any such Legal Proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. Each Party irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 11.4. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any Party to serve process in any other manner permitted by Law.

Section 11.9 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS, THE FINANCING AND ANY OF THE AGREEMENTS DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THE MERGER AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE EITHER OF SUCH WAIVERS, (B) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVERS, (C) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVERS VOLUNTARILY, AND (D) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 11.9.

Section 11.10 Assignment. This Agreement shall not be assigned by any of the Parties (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other Parties. Subject to the preceding sentence, but without relieving any Party of any obligation hereunder, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 11.11 Enforcement; Remedies.

(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a Party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by Law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no Party may bring any suit, action or proceeding based in whole or in part upon any actual or alleged inaccuracy in any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement other than any such suit, action or proceeding based exclusively on breach of contract and, for the avoidance of doubt, no Party may bring any such suit, action or proceeding based on gross negligence, negligence or breach of statute, except to the extent mandatory applicable Law prohibits the exclusion of liability on such basis.

(b) The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is agreed that prior to the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article X, the non-breaching Party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement by any other Party and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

(c) The Parties’ right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the Transactions and each Party hereby waives any objections to the grant of the equitable remedy of specific performance to prevent or restrain breaches of this Agreement by any other Party (including any objection on the basis that there is an adequate remedy at Law or that an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or equity), and each Party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of such Party under this Agreement all in accordance with the terms of this Section 11.11. In the event any Party seeks an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, such Party shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with such order or injunction all in accordance with the terms of this Section 11.11.
