The Executive shall be released from all duties linked to the Company on the
Agreement Effective Date, except for being reasonably available over the phone

1.4

Apart from what is explicitly stated below, this agreement supersedes all
earlier oral or written agreements between the Company or any associated
company, and the Executive, relating to the employment of the Executive. For the
purpose of this agreement, “associated company” means a legal entity directly or
indirectly controlling or controlled by or under common control with the
Company, irrespective of the country of registration of such legal entity.

 

1.5

The provisions of this Agreement, including for the avoidance of doubt section
5.6 below, shall not waive or terminate any rights to indemnification Executive

3.2

Not later than 6 weeks following the Termination Date, the Company shall pay a

4.Undertakings

 

4.1

The Executive has an obligation of loyalty that follows by an employment
relationship. Accordingly, the Executive has a duty to be loyal to the Company
until the Termination date and thus carry out, inter alia, the remaining tasks
and assignments the Executive is instructed to carry out as well as not being
engaged in any business competing with the Company or its associated companies.

 

4.2

The Executive will continue to be bound by the confidentiality undertaking under
section 8 under the employment agreement. The Executive is thereby not allowed
to in any way disclose sensitive or other confidential information regarding the
Company or any of its associated companies to any other company or individual
not employed by the Company or any of its associated companies. This
confidentiality undertaking is not limited in time. The Executive also
recognises that he will adhere to section 14 of the employment agreement
regarding intellectual property rights.

 

4.3

To avoid any misunderstandings, the Company hereby releases the Executive from
the non-competition obligation under section 13 of the employment agreement. The
Company will thereby have no obligation to pay the compensation outlined under
section 13 of the employment agreement.

5.Other Issues and Final Settlement

 

5.1

The executive participates in Autoliv, Inc. 1997 Stock Incentive Plan
(“Incentive Plan”). The parties agree that the Executive’s entitlement under the
incentive plan will be handled in accordance with the rules and regulations
prescribed by the incentive plan. With reference to the rules of the plan, the
parties note that all of the Executive’s Restricted Stock Units and Performance
Shares promised but not vested will not vest and shall be forfeited as of the
Termination Date. The Parties further note that the Executive’s already vested
Options, if any, will remain exercisable for three (3) months after the
Termination Date.

 

5.2

The Parties agree that the Executive shall have no priority rights to
re-employment.

 

5.3

The separation between the Executive and the Company is based on mutual trust
and the parties agree that they shall use their best endeavours to act in a fair
and considerate way regarding all issues relating to this separation, including
internal and external communication and other practical matters that have to be
resolved as consequence of this separation. The parties have further agreed to
keep the contents of this agreement confidential other than such disclosures
that are required to comply with applicable securities laws in the U.S. or
Sweden.

 

5.4

On the date the Executive is released from all duties, the Executive shall
return to the Company all keys, credit cards, documents, laptop computer and all
other property which the Executive may have in his possession and which belongs
to the Company or its associated companies except the mobile phone and company
car.

 

5.5

The Executive shall resign from all board of directors or similar directorship
in the Company or in any other associated companies latest on the date the
Executive is released. The Executive acknowledges that he has no claim
whatsoever outstanding against either the Company, its associated companies or
any of their respective officers, directors and employees in connection with the
position as director. To the extent that any such claim exists or may exist, the
Executive irrevocably waive such claim and release the Company, its associated
companies and each of their respective officers, directors and employees from
any liability whatsoever in respect of such claim.

 

5.6

Through the signing of this agreement and the fulfilment of the provisions
herein, all unsettled matters between the parties shall be deemed to be finally
settled and the Executive shall have no claims against the Company or any of its
