Section 13.02In the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, the Recipient shall be (as between the Parties) solely responsible to obtain at its cost all necessary permits, consents, registrations and licenses required to enable the Recipient to market and sell the Products to its end customers, including transportation, importation and exportation of the Products to its end customers, distributors and agents.

ARTICLE XIV

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS

Section 14.01The Supplier acknowledges that, as between the Parties, the Recipient owns or rightfully uses all Intellectual Property Rights relating to the design and manufacture of the Products. Any improvements made to the Products (including their design and manufacture), whether suggested, conceived, developed, invented, or authorized by the Supplier (Product Improvements) are and shall be the sole property of the Recipient, and the Supplier shall assign and hereby assigns to the Recipient, and the Recipient shall accept and hereby accepts such assignment of, all rights, title, and interest in any Intellectual Property Rights in any Product Improvements. Upon the request of the Recipient, the Supplier shall provide any further necessary documentation and do all further acts reasonably requested by the Recipient or necessary to confirm and perfect title in and to such assigned Intellectual Property Rights in the Recipient, its successors and assigns. Notwithstanding, the Parties agree that the Recipient intends to retain all Product Improvements associated with the use of, or symbolized by, such assigned Intellectual Property Rights and, accordingly, any assignment of such rights in such Product Improvements by the Supplier to the Recipient pursuant to this Section 14.01 shall not be treated as a transfer for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In the event and to the extent that transfer of ownership in any Intellectual Property Rights relating to Product Improvements shall

not be legally permissible, the Supplier hereby grants and/or irrevocably agrees to grant to the Recipient an unrestricted and unlimited, royalty-free, irrevocable, worldwide, sub-licensable license to use such Intellectual Property Rights. For the use and manufacture of the Products and any deviations and replacements thereto, such license shall be exclusive. In any event, the Supplier irrevocably covenants not to sue the Recipient or its Affiliates for any Intellectual Property Right infringement.

Section 14.01The Recipient hereby grants and/or irrevocably agrees to grant to the Supplier a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free, non-sublicensable license to use the Intellectual Property Rights of the Recipient solely to the extent required for the Supplier to manufacture and supply the Products and otherwise comply with its obligations under this Agreement.

Section 14.03Subject to Section 14.01 and Section 14.02, neither Party nor any of its Affiliates grants to the other Party or its Affiliates under this Agreement any right or license in any Intellectual Property Right of such Party or its Affiliates.

ARTICLE XV

WARRANTIES

Section 15.01The Supplier hereby represents and warrants that upon Delivery:

(a)the Products are free from Defects; and

(b)the packaging of the Products is as agreed between the Parties, and where the Parties have not made any particular agreement, is of market standard quality, complies with applicable Law and has the proper and full declaration necessary for its intended purpose. For the avoidance of doubt, the representations and warranties in this Section 15.01(b) shall not apply in respect of any non-conformance which according to the reasonable conclusion of the Parties has likely been caused by any repacking of the Products by the Recipient after Delivery.

Section 15.02The warranty period shall, on a Product-by-Product basis, start upon Delivery in accordance with the Delivery Terms and end, by Product, concurrently with the end of the corresponding warranty and indemnities periods stated in the agreements between the Recipient and its end customer as on the Effective Date (and any prolongations of such warranty and indemnity periods agreed between the Recipient and its end customers after the Effective Date to the extent such prolongations have been approved by the Supplier in its reasonable discretion). The Recipient shall provide the Supplier with access to historical product data as reasonably necessary to address warranty claims.

Section 15.03EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET OUT IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE SUPPLIER DOES NOT PROVIDE ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF ANY KIND (EXPRESS OR IMPLIED) IN RESPECT OF THE PRODUCTS OR THEIR MANUFACTURE OR DELIVERY, AND ANY OTHER REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES THAT MAY BE IMPLIED BY STATUTE, PRECEDENTS OR OTHERWISE ARE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, HEREBY EXCLUDED.

Section 15.04The warranties set out in this Article XV (and all related provisions of this Agreement) shall apply retroactively and mutatis mutandis to any Products manufactured and delivered by the Supplier before the Effective Date (so that the Recipient shall be entitled to assert warranty claims against the Supplier under this Agreement in respect of any Defects or non-compliant packaging of Products delivered before the Effective Date); it being specified that the notification requirements and other processes set out in Article IX shall not apply retroactively, provided that in respect of any Defects discovered before the Effective Date, the Recipient shall inform the Supplier (and follow the other processes set out in Article IX) without undue delay after the Effective Date.

ARTICLE XVI

CONFIDENTIALITY

Section 16.01Each Party (the Receiving Party) undertakes to the other Party (the Disclosing Party) to treat as confidential all Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party.

Section 16.02The Receiving Party may only use the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party for the purposes of, and in accordance with, this Agreement. The Receiving Party may only provide its employees, directors, sub-contractors, professional advisers and Affiliates (the Permitted Users) with access to such Confidential Information on a strict “need-to-know” basis. The Receiving Party shall ensure that each of its Permitted Users is bound to hold all Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party in confidence to the standard required under this Agreement. Where a Permitted User is not an employee or director of the Receiving Party (and is not under a professional duty to protect confidentiality), the Receiving Party shall ensure that the Permitted User shall, prior to receiving the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party, enter into a written confidentiality undertaking with the Receiving Party on substantially equivalent terms to this Agreement, a copy of which shall be provided to the Disclosing Party upon request.

Section 16.03This Article XVI shall not apply to any information which:

(a)is in or subsequently enters the public domain other than as a result of a breach of this Article XVI;

(b)has been or is subsequently received by the Receiving Party from a Third Party (other than by a breach of confidentiality obligations by that Third Party) and the Recipient is under no confidentiality obligation in respect of that information other than under this Agreement; or

(c)has been or is subsequently independently developed by the Receiving Party without use of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information; or

(d)the Disclosing Party has agreed in writing may be disclosed.

Section 16.04Each Permitted User may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party where that Permitted User (or, where the Permitted User is an individual, his or her employer) is required to do so by applicable Law or by any competent court or by any competent regulatory authority. In these circumstances the Receiving Party shall, to the extent

permitted by applicable Law, give the Disclosing Party prompt advance written notice of the disclosure (where lawful and practical to do so) so that the Disclosing Party has sufficient opportunity (where possible) to prevent or control the manner of disclosure by appropriate legal means.

Section 16.05On termination or expiry of this Agreement, this Article XVI shall remain in full force and effect for three (3) years as from the expiry or the termination of this Agreement and, unless otherwise stated in this Agreement, each Party agrees that it must continue to keep the other Party’s Confidential Information confidential in accordance with this Article XVI.

SUBCONTRACTING

The Supplier may subcontract the performance of any or all of its obligations hereunder to any of its Affiliates or Third Parties without the Recipient’s consent, provided that the Supplier shall be liable to the Recipient for all acts and omissions of its subcontractors as if they were its own and no delegation or subcontracting of activities hereunder shall relieve the Supplier from its obligations towards the Recipient set forth herein.

GENERAL

Section 22.01Relationship of the Parties. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as creating a partnership, joint venture, agency, trust or other association of any kind among or between the Parties, each Party being individually responsible only for its obligations as set forth in this Agreement. Supplier shall perform its obligations under this Agreement in the capacity of an independent contractor and not as an employee, agent or joint venture counterparty of Recipient.

authority to bind Supplier to any contract, undertaking or other engagement with any Third Party.

Section 22.02Employee Matters.

(a)The Supplier shall be the sole and exclusive employer of the CMA Employees. It is the joint intention and understanding of the Parties that nothing in this Agreement, its expiration or termination, the transfer or operation of the Dedicated Production Equipment at the Production Site, the manufacture and supply of the Products for the Recipient and the relocation of the Dedicated Production Equipment to the Recipient’s own production sites, shall have the effect of transferring the employment relationship of any CMA Employee to the Recipient or any Third Party or creating any right or liability of the CMA Employee against the Recipient or any Third Party. Furthermore, it is not intended that anything in this Agreement shall constitute a delegation of staff or agency work between the Parties.

(b)The Supplier shall bear all costs and expenses or reimburse the Recipient or any Third Party for such costs, if any, concerning the CMA Employees, including any termination fees, severance costs, exit fees, wind down costs, stranded costs, penalties or similar costs concerning the CMA Employees incurred from or associated with (i) this Agreement, (ii) its expiration or termination, (iii) the transfer or operation of the Dedicated Production Equipment at the Production Site, (iv) the manufacture and supply of the Products for the Recipient or (v) the relocation of the Dedicated Production Equipment to the Recipient’s own production sites. The Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any such costs and expenses.

(c)The Supplier shall be liable and hold the Recipient harmless for all costs and damages relating to any employment and social security related litigation including any complaint, dispute, claim, trial or lawsuit arising from and connected with this Agreement or the services rendered thereunder.

Section 22.03Assignment. Neither Party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, by operation of Law or otherwise (including by merger, contribution, spin-off or otherwise) any of its rights, interests or obligations hereunder, without the prior written consent of the other Party, except that either Party may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement, without consent of the other Party, to an Affiliate. Any permitted assignee or successor-in-interest will assume all obligations of its assignor under this Agreement. Any attempted assignment in violation of this Section 22.02 shall be null and void and of no effect. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assignees.

Section 22.05No Set-off. Neither Party shall be entitled to set off claims it has against the other Party against claims of the other Party arising from this Agreement or to assert a right of retention against claims of the other Party, unless the other Party has acknowledged these claims of the first Party in writing or these have been confirmed by means of a final and binding judgment of a competent court or arbitral tribunal.

Section 22.06Notices. All notices, requests, claims, demands and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be given or made (and shall be deemed to have been duly given or made upon receipt) by delivery in person, by overnight courier service, by email transmission (so long as confirmation of transmission is electronically or mechanically generated), or by registered or certified mail (postage prepaid, return receipt requested) to the respective Persons at the following addresses (or at such other address for a Party as shall be specified in a notice given in accordance with this Section 22.06):

Section 22.07Amendment; Waiver. No provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed waived, amended, supplemented or modified by any Party, unless such waiver, amendment, supplement or modification is in writing and signed by the authorized representative of each Party. No failure or delay of any Party (or the applicable member of its Group) in exercising any right or remedy under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, or any course of conduct, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. Waiver by any Party of any default by the other Party of any provision of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver by the waiving Party of any subsequent or other default.

Section 22.08Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof, or the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances, or in jurisdictions other than those as to which it has been held invalid or unenforceable, shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby, so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to either Party. Upon any such determination, any such provision, to the extent determined to be invalid, void or unenforceable, shall be deemed replaced by a provision that such court determines is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid, void or unenforceable provision.

Section 22.09Separation and Distribution Agreement. Neither the making nor the acceptance of this Agreement shall enlarge, restrict or otherwise modify the terms of the Separation and Distribution Agreement or constitute a waiver or release by BorgWarner Inc. or PHINIA Inc. of any liabilities, obligations or commitments imposed upon them by the terms of the Separation and Distribution Agreement, including the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements and other provisions of the Separation and Distribution Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement, on the one hand, and the provisions of the Separation and Distribution Agreement, on the other hand, the Separation and Distribution Agreement shall control.

Section 22.10Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, between Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

Section 22.11Governing law; Dispute Resolution; Jurisdiction.

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

(b)In the event of any claim, controversy, demand or request for relief of any kind arising out of, in connection with, or in relation to the interpretation, performance, nonperformance, validity or breach of this Agreement or otherwise arising out of or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including any Action based on contract, tort, equity, statute, regulation or constitution (a Dispute), the Party raising the Dispute shall give written notice (which shall include a detailed description) of the Dispute (the Dispute Notice). Following the service of such Dispute Notice, the Parties shall attempt to resolve the dispute in good faith within thirty (30) Business Days from and including the date of receipt of the Dispute Notice. If the dispute cannot be resolved by the Parties within such thirty (30) Business Day period, the dispute shall be escalated to the executive officers designated by the Parties, who shall then attempt to resolve the Dispute in good faith within further twenty (20) Business Days from the escalation (the period commencing from receipt of the Dispute Notice until the expiration of such escalation, the Negotiation Period). Neither Party shall commence any Action in accordance with Section 22.11(c) until after having attempted to resolve the Dispute pursuant to this Section 22.11(b). However, in the event of any Action in accordance with Section 22.11(c), (i) the Parties shall not assert the defenses of statute of limitations, laches or any other defense, in each such case based on the passage of time during the Negotiation Period, and (ii) any contractual time period or deadline under this Agreement relating to such Dispute occurring after the Dispute Notice is received shall not be deemed to have passed until such proceeding has been resolved.

(c)Subject to Section 22.11(b), any Action by a Party seeking any relief whatsoever arising out of, relating to or in connection with, this Agreement shall be brought only in the court of [l], and such Party (i) agrees to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts for purposes of all legal proceedings arising out of, or in connection with, this Agreement, (ii) waives and agrees not to assert any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such Action brought in such a court or any claim that any such Action brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum, (iii) agrees that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such Action in the manner provided in Section 22.06 or any other manner as may be permitted by Law shall be valid and sufficient service thereof, and (iv) agrees that a final judgment in any such Action shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Law.

(d)WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

Section 22.12Specific Performance. Subject to Section 22.11, except as provided below, in the event of any actual or threatened default in, or breach of, any of the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement, the affected Party shall have the right to specific performance, declaratory relief and injunctive or other equitable relief (on a permanent, emergency, temporary, preliminary or interim basis) of its rights under this Agreement, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies at Law or in equity, and all such rights and remedies shall be cumulative. The other Party shall not oppose the granting of such relief on the basis that money damages are an adequate remedy. The Parties agree that the remedies at Law for any breach or threatened

breach hereof, including monetary damages, are inadequate compensation for any loss and that any defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at Law would be adequate is hereby waived. Any requirements for the securing or posting of any bond or similar security with such remedy are hereby waived. For the avoidance of doubt, the rights pursuant to this Section 22.12 shall be pursued in accordance with Section 22.11.

Section 22.13No Third-Party Beneficiaries. The provisions of this Agreement are solely for the benefit of the Parties hereto and are not intended to confer upon any Person except the Parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder and there are no third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement and this Agreement shall not provide any third person with any remedy, claim, liability, reimbursement, cause of action or other right in excess of those existing without reference to this Agreement.

Section 22.14Continuity of Service and Performance. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the Parties shall continue to provide services and honor all other commitments under this Agreement during the course of dispute resolution pursuant to the provisions of Section 22.11 or Section 22.12 with respect to all matters not subject to such dispute resolution.
