 W/2672683 
DEED OF INDEMNITY 
This deed (“Deed”) is made as of __________, 2016 by and between Adient plc, a public 
limited company organized under the laws of Ireland (“Adient”), and ______________ 
(“Indemnitee”).  Except as provided herein, this Deed supersedes and replaces any and all 
previous agreements between Adient and Indemnitee covering the subject matter of this Deed. 
RECITALS 
WHEREAS, it is essential to Adient that Adient retain and attract as directors and 
secretary the most capable persons available; 
WHEREAS, due to restrictions imposed by the laws of Ireland, the Articles of 
Association of Adient (the “Adient Articles”) do not confer indemnification and advance rights 
on its directors and secretary as broad as the indemnification and advance rights that are 
customarily provided to the directors and secretary of a company organized under the laws of the 
State of Delaware; 
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of Adient believes that highly competent persons 
have become more reluctant to serve publicly-held corporations as directors or officers or in 
other capacities unless they are provided with adequate protection through insurance or adequate 
indemnification against inordinate risks of claims and actions against them arising out of their 
service to and activities on behalf of the corporation; 
WHEREAS, Adient has requested that the Indemnitee serve as an Official of Adient, and, 
if requested to do so by Adient, as an Official of another foreign or domestic corporation, 
partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, employee benefit plan, trust, or other 
Enterprise; 
WHEREAS, it is reasonable, prudent and necessary for Adient contractually to obligate 
itself to indemnify, and to advance expenses to, the Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by 
applicable law, including the Act, so that he or she will serve or continue to serve Adient free 
from undue concern that he or she will not be so indemnified;  
WHEREAS, in recognition of Indemnitee’s need for (a) substantial protection against 
personal liability, (b) specific contractual assurance that such protection will be available to 
Indemnitee, Adient wishes to provide in this Deed for the indemnification by Adient of, and the 
advancing by Adient of expenses to, Indemnitee as set forth in this Deed; and 
WHEREAS, this Deed is a supplement to and in furtherance of any insurance maintained 
by Adient and the Adient Articles, and shall not be deemed a substitute therefor, nor to diminish 
or abrogate any rights of Indemnitee thereunder.

by way of indemnification by Adient or an Associated Company to Indemnitee of Expenses or 
any arrangement by which Adient or Associated Company enables Indemnitee to avoid incurring 
Expenses, where Indemnitee is defending any Criminal Proceedings or any Proceedings or other 
claims in connection with any alleged negligence, default, breach of duty, or breach of trust by 
Indemnitee in relation to Adient or Associated Company, or applying for relief under either 
section 233 or 234 of the Act (until such time as such relief is granted, subject to the provisions 
of this Deed). 
(t) References to “serving at the request of Adient” shall include any service 
as a director, officer, employee or agent of Adient that imposes duties on, or involves services 
by, such director, officer, secretary, employee or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan,

Section 2. Indemnity in Third-Party Proceedings.  Adient shall indemnify Indemnitee 
in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2 if Indemnitee is, or is threatened to be made, a 
party to or a participant in any Proceeding, other than a Proceeding by or in the right of Adient or 
an Associated Company, to procure a judgment in its favor, by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate 
Status (“Third Party Proceedings”).  Pursuant to this Section 2, Indemnitee shall be indemnified 
to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, including the Act, against all Expenses, 
Judgments and amounts paid in settlement (including all interest, assessments and other charges 
paid or payable in connection with or in respect of such Expenses, Judgments, and amounts paid
 -6- 
 
in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee’s behalf in 
connection with such Third Party Proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein, if Indemnitee 
acted in good faith and in a manner Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to 
the best interests of Adient.  The parties hereto intend that this Deed (a) shall provide to the 
fullest extent permitted by law, including the Act, for indemnification in excess of that expressly 
permitted by statute, including, without limitation, any indemnification provided by the Adient 
Articles, a vote of Adient’s shareholders, disinterested directors or applicable law, including the 
Act and (b) shall not be deemed a substitute for, nor to diminish or abrogate any rights of 
Indemnitee under any insurance maintained by Adient. Nothing in this Section 2 or this Deed 
shall indemnify an Indemnitee in respect of any liability incurred by the Indemnitee to the extent 
prohibited by the Act, including the payment of Fines, Judgments against Indemnitee or 
Prohibited Expense Payments.  
Section 3. Advancement of Expenses to directors in Proceedings and Criminal 
Proceedings. Adient may, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, advance such funds 
to Indemnitee as Adient, in its reasonable discretion, considers appropriate for Indemnitee to 
cover Expenses incurred or to be incurred by Indemnitee, (a) in defending any Criminal 
Proceedings, (b) in defending any Proceedings in connection with any alleged negligence, 
default, breach of duty or breach of trust by the Indemnitee in relation to Adient or Associated 
Company, (c) in connection with any application for relief under either section 233 or 234 of the 
Act or (d) any other Proceedings. If Adient considers it appropriate to make any advance 
pursuant to this Section 3, such advance is to be repaid or any liability of Adient incurred in any 
transaction connected with the thing done is to be discharged in the event of (i) the Indemnitee 
being convicted in Criminal Proceedings, (ii) judgment being given against the Indemnitee in 
Proceedings or (iii) the court refusing to grant relief in the circumstances set out in either section 
233 or 234 of the Act. 
Section 4. Indemnification for Expenses of a Party Who is Wholly or Partly 
Successful. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Deed, to the fullest extent permitted by 
applicable law, including the Act, and to the extent that Indemnitee is defending any Proceedings  
or Criminal Proceedings or making any application for relief under either section 233 or 234 of 
the Act and is wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in any Proceedings, Criminal 
Proceedings or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, Adient shall indemnify 
Indemnitee against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection 
therewith. If Indemnitee is not wholly successful in Proceedings but is successful, on the merits 
or otherwise, as to one or more but less than all claims, issues or matters in such Proceeding, but 
not Criminal Proceedings, Adient shall indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses actually and 
reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee’s behalf in connection with or related to 
each successfully resolved claim, issue or matter to the fullest extent permitted by law, including 
the Act.  For the purposes of this Section 4 and without limitation, the termination of any claim, 
issue or matter in Proceedings or Criminal Proceedings by dismissal, with or without prejudice, 
shall be deemed to be a successful result as to such claim, issue or matter. Nothing in this Section 
4 or this Deed shall indemnify an Indemnitee in respect of any liability incurred by the 
Indemnitee prohibited by applicable law, including the Act.
 -7- 
 
Section 5. Indemnification For Expenses of a Witness.  Notwithstanding any other 
provision of this Deed, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, including the Act, and to 
the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status, a witness or otherwise 
asked to participate in any Proceeding or Criminal Proceeding to which Indemnitee is not a 
party, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by 
Indemnitee or on Indemnitee’s behalf in connection therewith. 
Section 6. Partial Indemnification.  If Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of 
this Deed to indemnification by Adient for some or a portion of Expenses, but not, however, for 
the total amount thereof, Adient shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee for the portion thereof 
to which Indemnitee is entitled. 
Section 7. Exclusions.  Notwithstanding any provision in this Deed, Adient shall not 
be obligated under this Deed to make any indemnification payment in connection with any 
Proceedings or Criminal Proceedings involving Indemnitee: 
(a) for which payment has actually been made to or on behalf of Indemnitee 
under any insurance policy or other indemnity provision, except with respect to any excess 
beyond the amount paid under any insurance policy or other indemnity provision; 
(b) for (i) an accounting of profits made from the purchase and sale (or sale 
and purchase) by Indemnitee of securities of Adient within the meaning of Section 16(b) of the 
Exchange Act or similar provisions of state statutory law or common law, (ii) any reimbursement 
of Adient by Indemnitee of any bonus or other incentive-based or equity-based compensation or 
of any profits realized by Indemnitee from the sale of securities of Adient, as required in each 
case under the Exchange Act (including any such reimbursements that arise from an accounting 
restatement of Adient pursuant to Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the 
“Sarbanes-Oxley Act”), or Section 904 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer 
Protection Act, or the payment to Adient of profits arising from the purchase and sale by 
Indemnitee of securities in violation of Section 306 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act) or (iii) any 
reimbursement of Adient by Indemnitee of any compensation pursuant to any compensation 
recoupment or clawback policy adopted by the Board or the compensation committee of the 
Board, including but not limited to any such policy adopted to comply with stock exchange 
listing requirements implementing Section 10D of the Exchange Act; or 
(c)  in connection with any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) 
initiated by Indemnitee, including any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) initiated by 
Indemnitee against Adient and its directors, officers, secretary, employees or other indemnitees, 
unless (i) the Board authorized the Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) prior to its 
initiation or (ii) Adient provides the indemnification, in its sole discretion, pursuant to the powers 
vested in Adient, as applicable, under applicable law, including the Act;  
(d) in respect of any Fines; or 
(e) in respect of any Prohibited Expense Payment.
 -8- 
 
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Deed, Adient shall not indemnify and does not 
intend to indemnify Indemnitee in respect of Proceedings, Criminal Proceedings or any other 
action, except as to the fullest extent permitted by the Act. 
Section 8. Procedure for Notification and Defense of Claim; Exhaustion of 
Remedies. 
(a) Indemnitee shall notify Adient in writing of any matter with respect to 
which Indemnitee intends to seek indemnification or an advance under this Deed, of Expenses 
hereunder as soon as reasonably practicable following the receipt by Indemnitee of written notice 
thereof.  The written notification to Adient shall include a description of the nature of the 
Proceeding or Criminal Proceeding and the facts underlying the Proceeding or Criminal 
Proceeding.  To obtain indemnification under this Deed, Indemnitee shall submit to Adient a 
written request, including therein or therewith such documentation and information as is 
reasonably available to Indemnitee and is reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what 
extent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification following the final disposition of such 
Proceeding. The omission by Indemnitee to notify Adient hereunder will not relieve Adient from 
any liability which it may have to Indemnitee hereunder or otherwise than under this Deed 
except to the extent that such delay materially and adversely affects Adient’s ability to 
participate in the defense of such Proceeding or Criminal Proceeding, and any delay in so 
notifying Adient shall not constitute a waiver by Indemnitee of any rights under this Deed.  The 
Secretary of Adient shall, promptly upon receipt of such a request for indemnification, advise the 
Board in writing that Indemnitee has requested indemnification. 
(b) Adient will be entitled to participate in the Proceeding or Criminal 
Proceeding at its own expense and, except as otherwise provided below, to the extent Adient so 
wishes, it may assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Indemnitee.  
After notice from Adient to Indemnitee of its election to assume the defense of any such claim, 
Adient shall not be liable to Indemnitee under this Deed or otherwise for any Expenses 
subsequently directly incurred by Indemnitee in connection with Indemnitee’s defense of such 
claim except as otherwise provided below and allowed under applicable law, including the Act. 
Indemnitee shall have the right to employ its own legal counsel in such claim, but all Expenses 
related to such counsel incurred after notice from Adient of its assumption of the defense shall be 
at Indemnitee’s own expense; provided, that if (i) Indemnitee’s employment of its own legal 
counsel has been authorized by Adient, (ii) Indemnitee has reasonably determined that there may 
be a conflict of interest between Indemnitee and Adient in the defense of such claim, (iii) after a 
Change in Control, Indemnitee’s employment of its own counsel has been approved by the 
Independent Counsel or (iv) Adient shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the 
defense of such claim, then Indemnitee shall be entitled to retain its own separate counsel (but 
not more than one law firm plus, if applicable, local counsel in respect of any such claim) and all 
Expenses related to such separate counsel shall be borne by Adient provided such payment does 
not amount to a Prohibited Expense Payment. 
(c) Prior to making a written request for indemnification or an advance 
pursuant to Section 8(a), Indemnitee shall (i) seek such indemnification or advance of Expenses,
 -9- 
 
as applicable, under any applicable insurance policy and (ii) request that Adient consider in its 
discretion, and as permitted by this Deed and applicable law, including the Act, whether to make 
such indemnification or advance of Expenses, as applicable.  Upon any such request by 
Indemnitee of Adient, Adient shall consider whether to make such indemnification or advance of 
Expenses, as applicable, based on the facts and circumstances related to the request. Adient may 
require, as a condition to making any indemnification or advance of Expenses, as applicable, that 
Indemnitee enter into an agreement providing for such indemnification or advance of Expenses, 
as applicable, to be made subject to substantially the same terms and conditions applicable to an 
indemnification or advance of Expenses, as applicable, by Adient under this Deed.  If 
indemnification or advance of Expenses, as applicable, is not received pursuant to an insurance 
policy, or from Adient, within five (5) business days of the later of Indemnitee’s request of the 
insurer and Indemnitee’s request of Adient pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 8(c), 
Indemnitee may make written demand on Adient for indemnification pursuant to Section 8(a) or 
make a request for an advance of Expenses pursuant to Section 3, as applicable. 
Section 9. Procedure Upon Application for Indemnification.   
(a) Upon written request by Indemnitee for indemnification or an advance 
pursuant to Section 8(a), a determination, if required by applicable law, including the Act, with 
respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement thereto shall be made in the specific case:  (i) if a Change in 
Control shall have occurred, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of 
which shall be delivered to Indemnitee; or (ii) if a Change in Control shall not have occurred, (A) 
by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum of the Board, 
(B) by a committee of Disinterested Directors designated by a majority vote of the Disinterested 
Directors, even though less than a quorum of the Board, or (C) if there are no such Disinterested 
Directors or, if such Disinterested Directors so direct, by Independent Counsel in a written 
opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee (collectively, the 
“Reviewing Party”); and, if it is so determined that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification or 
an advance, payment by way of indemnification or an advance, as applicable, to Indemnitee shall 
be made within ten (10) days after such determination.  Indemnitee shall cooperate with the 
Reviewing Party with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification, including 
providing to the Reviewing Party upon reasonable advance request any documentation or 
information that is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and that is reasonably 
available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such determination. Adient promptly will 
advise Indemnitee in writing with respect to any determination that Indemnitee is or is not 
entitled to indemnification, including a description of any reason or basis for which 
indemnification has been denied. 
(b) If the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by 
Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 9(a), the Independent Counsel shall be selected as 
provided in this Section 9(b).  If a Change in Control shall not have occurred, the Independent 
Counsel shall be selected by the Board, and Adient shall give written notice to Indemnitee 
advising Indemnitee of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected.  If a Change in 
Control shall have occurred, the Independent Counsel shall be selected by Indemnitee (unless 
Indemnitee shall request that such selection be made by the Board, in which event the preceding
 -10- 
 
sentence shall apply), and Indemnitee shall give written notice to Adient advising it of the 
identity of the Independent Counsel so selected.  In either event, Indemnitee or Adient, as the 
case may be, may, within ten (10) days after such written notice of selection shall have been 
given, deliver to Adient or to Indemnitee, as the case may be, a written objection to such 
selection; provided, that such objection may be asserted only on the ground that the Independent 
Counsel so selected does not meet the requirements of “Independent Counsel” as defined in 
Section 1, and the objection shall set forth with particularity the factual basis of such assertion.  
Absent a proper and timely objection, the person so selected shall act as Independent Counsel.  If 
such written objection is so made and substantiated, the Independent Counsel so selected may 
not serve as Independent Counsel unless and until such objection is withdrawn or the Irish Court 
has determined that such objection is without merit.  If, within twenty (20) days after the later of 
submission by Indemnitee of a written request for indemnification pursuant to Section 8(a) and 
the final disposition of the Proceeding, no Independent Counsel shall have been selected and not 
objected to, either Adient or Indemnitee may petition the Irish Court for resolution of any 
objection which shall have been made by Adient or Indemnitee to the other’s selection of 
Independent Counsel and/or for the appointment as Independent Counsel of a person selected by 
such court or by such other person as such court shall designate, and the person with respect to 
whom all objections are so resolved or the person so appointed shall act as Independent Counsel 
under Section 9(a).  Upon the due commencement of any judicial proceeding or arbitration 
pursuant to Section 11(a), Independent Counsel shall be discharged and relieved of any further 
responsibility in such capacity (subject to the applicable standards of professional conduct then 
prevailing). 
Section 10. Presumptions and Effect of Certain Proceedings. 
(a) In making a determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification 
hereunder, the Reviewing Party shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, including the 
Act, presume that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Deed if Indemnitee has 
submitted a request for indemnification in accordance with Section 8(a), and the Reviewing 
Party shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, including the Act, have the burden of 
proof to overcome that presumption in connection with the making by any person, persons or 
entity of any determination contrary to that presumption.  Neither the failure of the Reviewing 
Party to have made a determination prior to the commencement of any action pursuant to this 
Deed that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the 
applicable standard of conduct, nor an actual determination by the Reviewing Party that 
Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or 
create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct. 
(b) The termination of any Proceeding or Criminal Proceeding or of any 
claim, issue or matter therein, by judgment, order, settlement or its equivalent, shall not (except 
as otherwise expressly provided in this Deed) of itself adversely affect the right of Indemnitee to 
indemnification or create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner 
which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of Adient or, 
with respect to any criminal Proceeding, that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that 
Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful.
 -11- 
 
(c) For purposes of any determination of good faith, Indemnitee shall be 
deemed to have acted in good faith if Indemnitee’s action is based on the records or books of 
account of any Enterprise, including financial statements, or on information supplied to 
Indemnitee by the directors, officers or other Officials of such Enterprise in the course of their 
duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for such Enterprise or on information or records given or 
reports made to such Enterprise by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser, 
financial advisor or other expert selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of such Enterprise 
as to matters Indemnitee reasonably believes are within such Person’s professional or expert 
competence.  The provisions of this Section 10(c) shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit 
in any way the other circumstances in which the Indemnitee may be deemed to have met the 
applicable standard of conduct set forth in this Deed. 
(d) The knowledge and/or actions, or failure to act, of any Official of any 
Enterprise or any other person shall not be imputed to Indemnitee for purposes of determining 
the right to indemnification under this Deed. 
Section 11. Remedies of Indemnitee.   
(a) Subject to Section 11(e), if (i) a determination is made pursuant to Section 
9 of this Deed that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under this Deed, (ii) an advance 
of Expenses is not timely made pursuant to Section 3 of this Deed, (iii) no determination of 
entitlement to indemnification shall have been made pursuant to Section 9(a) of this Deed within 
ninety (90) days after receipt by Adient of a request for indemnification (after Indemnitee has 
exhausted the procedures set forth in Section 8(c)), (iv) payment of indemnification is not made 
pursuant to Section 4, 5 or 6 within ten (10) days after receipt by Adient of a written request 
therefor (after Indemnitee has exhausted the procedures set forth in Section 8(c)), or (v) payment 
of indemnification pursuant to Section 2 is not made within ten (10) days after a determination 
has been made that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, or (vi) if Adient or any other 
person takes or threatens to take any action to declare this Deed void or unenforceable, or 
institutes any litigation or other action or Proceeding designed to deny, or to recover from, the 
Indemnitee the benefits provided or intended to be provided to the Indemnitee hereunder, 
Indemnitee shall be entitled to an adjudication by the Irish Court of Indemnitee’s entitlement to 
such indemnification or advancement of Expenses. Alternatively, Indemnitee, at Indemnitee’s 
option, may seek an award in arbitration to be conducted by a single arbitrator pursuant to the 
Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association.  Indemnitee shall 
commence such proceeding seeking an adjudication or an award in arbitration within 180 days 
following the date on which Indemnitee first has the right to commence such proceeding 
pursuant to this Section 11(a). Adient shall not oppose Indemnitee’s right to seek any such 
adjudication or award in arbitration. 
(b) If a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 9(a) of this 
Deed that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification, any judicial proceeding or arbitration 
commenced pursuant to this Section 11 shall be conducted in all respects as a de novo trial, or 
arbitration, on the merits and Indemnitee shall not be prejudiced by reason of that adverse 
determination.  In any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 11,
 -12- 
 
Adient shall have the burden of proving Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification or an 
advance of Expenses, as the case may be. 
(c) If a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 9(a) that 
Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, Adient shall be bound by such determination in any 
judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 11, absent (i) a 
misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to 
make Indemnitee’s statement not materially misleading, in connection with the request for 
indemnification, but only to the extent that the misstatement or omission affected such 
determination, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law, including the 
Act. 
(d) Adient shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, including the Act, 
be precluded from asserting in any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this 
Section 11 that the procedures and presumptions of this Deed are not valid, binding and 
enforceable and shall stipulate in any such court or before any such arbitrator that Adient is 
bound by all the provisions of this Deed.   
(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Deed to the contrary, no determination as 
to entitlement of Indemnitee to indemnification under this Deed shall be required to be made 
prior to the final disposition of the Proceeding or Criminal Proceeding. 
Section 12. Non-exclusivity; Survival of Rights; Insurance; Subrogation.   
(a) The rights of  Indemnitee under this Deed shall not be deemed exclusive 
of any other rights to which Indemnitee may at any time be entitled under applicable law, 
including the Act, the Adient Articles, any agreement, a vote of Adient’s shareholders, a 
resolution of directors, any insurance maintained by Adient or otherwise.  No amendment, 
alteration or repeal of this Deed or of any provision hereof shall limit or restrict any right of 
Indemnitee under this Deed in respect of any action taken or omitted by Indemnitee in 
Indemnitee’s Corporate Status prior to such amendment, alteration or repeal.  To the extent that a 
change in Irish law, including the Act, or any other applicable laws, whether by statute or 
judicial decision, permits greater indemnification or advance of Expenses than would be afforded 
currently under Irish law and/or under the Adient Articles and/or this Deed, it is the intent of the 
parties hereto that Indemnitee shall enjoy by this Deed the greater benefits so afforded by such 
change.  No right or remedy herein conferred is intended to be exclusive of any other right or 
remedy, and every other right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other 
right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise.  
The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent 
the concurrent assertion or employment of any other right or remedy. 
(b) To the extent that Adient maintains an insurance policy or policies 
providing liability insurance for directors, officers, secretaries, employees, or agents of any 
Enterprise, Indemnitee shall be covered by such policy or policies in accordance with its or their 
terms to the maximum extent of the coverage available for any such director, officer, secretary,
 -13- 
 
employee or agent under such policy or policies.  If, at the time of the receipt of a notice of a 
claim pursuant to the terms hereof, Adient has director and officer liability insurance in effect, 
Adient shall give prompt notice of such claim or of the commencement of a Proceeding or 
Criminal Proceeding, as the case may be, to the insurers in accordance with the procedures set 
forth in the respective policies.  Adient shall thereafter take all necessary or desirable action to 
cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of the Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of such 
Proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policies. 
(c) In the event of any payment made by Adient under this Deed, Adient shall 
be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee, who 
shall execute all papers required and take all action necessary to secure such rights, including 
execution of such documents as are necessary to enable Adient to bring suit to enforce such 
rights. 
(d) Adient shall not be liable under this Deed to make any payment of 
amounts otherwise indemnifiable (or provide an advance pursuant to Section 3 of this Deed) 
hereunder if and to the extent that Indemnitee has otherwise actually received such payment 
under any insurance policy, contract, agreement or otherwise.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, 
Adient shall be required to make payments under this Deed within the time periods set forth in 
this Deed regardless of whether, at the time such payments are due, the Indemnitee is pursuing 
recovery under any such policy, contract, agreement or other means. 
(e) Adient’s obligation to indemnify or advance Expenses hereunder to 
Indemnitee who is or was serving at the request of Adient as an Official of any other Enterprise 
shall be reduced by any amount Indemnitee has actually received as indemnification or advance 
of Expenses from such Enterprise.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Adient shall be required to 
make payments under this Deed within the time periods set forth in this Deed regardless of 
whether, at the time such payments are due, the Indemnitee is pursuing recovery from such other 
Enterprise. 
Section 13. Duration of this Deed; Successors and Assigns.  All agreements and 
obligations of Adient contained in this Deed shall continue for so long as Indemnitee shall be 
subject to, or involved in, any Proceeding for which indemnification is provided pursuant to this 
Deed.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no legal action shall be brought and no cause of action 
shall be asserted by or on behalf of Adient or any of its subsidiaries against Indemnitee, 
Indemnitee’s spouse, heirs, executors, or personal or legal representatives after the expiration of 
two (2) years from the date of accrual of such cause of action, or such longer period as may be 
required by the laws of Ireland under the circumstances.  Any claim or cause of action of Adient 
or any of its subsidiaries shall be extinguished and deemed released unless asserted by the timely 
filing and notice of a legal action within such period; provided, that if any shorter period of 
limitations is otherwise applicable to any such cause of action, the shorter period shall govern.  
The indemnification and advance of expenses rights provided by or granted pursuant to this Deed 
shall be binding upon and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors 
and assigns (including any direct or indirect successor by purchase, merger, consolidation or 
otherwise to all or substantially all of the business or assets of Adient), shall continue as to an
 -14- 
 
Indemnitee who has ceased to be an Official of Adient or of any other Enterprise, and shall inure 
to the benefit of Indemnitee and Indemnitee’s spouse, assigns, heirs, devisees, executors and 
administrators and other legal representatives.  
Section 14. Severability.  If any provision or provisions of this Deed shall be held to 
be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever: (a) the validity, legality and 
enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Deed (including each portion of any section of 
this Deed containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that is not 
itself invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and 
shall remain enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law, including the Act; (b) such 
provision or provisions shall be deemed reformed to the extent necessary to conform to 
applicable law, including the Act and to give the maximum effect to the intent of the parties 
hereto; and (c) to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Deed (including each portion 
of any section of this Deed containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or 
unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give 
effect to the intent manifested thereby. 
Section 15. Enforcement. 
(a) Adient expressly confirms and agrees that it has entered into this Deed and 
assumed the obligations imposed on it hereby to induce Indemnitee to serve as a director or 
officer of Adient, and Adient acknowledges that Indemnitee is relying upon this Deed in serving 
or continuing to serve as a director or officer of Adient.  Accordingly, the parties hereto agree 
that in the event of any actual or threatened default in, or breach of, any of the terms, conditions 
and provisions of this Deed, Indemnitee shall have the right to specific performance and 
injunctive or other equitable relief in respect of his or her rights under this Deed, 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 parties hereto also agree that the remedies at law for any breach or threatened 
breach of this Deed, 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 waived. Any requirements for the securing or posting of any bond with such remedy are 
waived by each of the parties hereto. 
(b) This Deed constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with 
respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, oral, 
written and implied, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof; 
provided, that this Deed is a supplement to and in furtherance of the Adient Articles, any 
insurance maintained by Adient and applicable law, including the Act, and shall not be deemed a 
substitute therefor, nor to diminish or abrogate any rights of Indemnitee thereunder.  
Section 16. Modification and Waiver.  No supplement, modification or amendment of 
this Deed shall be binding unless executed in writing by the parties hereto.  No waiver of any of 
the provisions of this Deed shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions 
of this Deed nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver.

Section 17. Notice by Indemnitee.  Indemnitee agrees promptly to notify Adient in 
writing upon being served with any summons, citation, subpoena, complaint, indictment, 
information or other document relating to any Proceeding or Criminal Proceeding or matter 
which may be subject to indemnification or advance of Expenses covered hereunder.  The failure 
of Indemnitee to so notify Adient shall not relieve Adient of any obligation which it may have to 
the Indemnitee under this Deed or otherwise, except to the extent that Adient is materially and 
adversely prejudiced by such failure.  
Section 18. Notices.  All notices, requests, demands and other communications under 
this Deed shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if (a) delivered by

directed, (b) mailed by certified or registered mail with postage prepaid, on the third business 
day after the date on which it is so mailed, (c) mailed by reputable overnight courier and

by and construed in accordance with Irish law. Any matter, claim or dispute arising out of or in 
connection with this Deed, whether contractual or non-contractual, is to be governed by and 
determined in accordance with Irish law.  Except with respect to any arbitration commenced by 
Indemnitee pursuant to Section 11(a), Adient and Indemnitee hereby irrevocably and 
unconditionally (i) agree that the courts of Ireland (the “Irish Court”) are to have exclusive 
jurisdiction to settle any dispute arising out of or in connection with this Deed, and any action or 
proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Deed shall be brought only in the Irish Court 
and not in any court in any other country, (ii) consent to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of 
the Irish Court for purposes of any action or proceeding arising out of or in connection with this 
Deed and (iii) waive, and agree not to plead or to make, any claim that any such action or

Section 20. The Act. Adient's obligations under this Deed remain subject at all times 
to the provisions of section 235 of the Act.

Section 21. Identical Counterparts.  This Deed may be executed in one or more 
counterparts, each of which shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original but all of which 
together shall constitute one and the same Deed.  Only one such counterpart signed by the party 
against whom enforceability is sought needs to be produced to evidence the existence of this 
Deed.  Signatures to this Deed transmitted by facsimile transmission, by electronic mail in 
“portable document format” (“pdf”) form, or by any other electronic means intended to preserve 
the original graphic and pictorial appearance of a document, will have the same effect as physical 
delivery of the paper document bearing the original signatures.

usage of the feminine pronoun where appropriate.  The headings of this Deed are inserted for 
convenience only and shall not be deemed to constitute part of this Deed or to affect the 
construction thereof.  Unless otherwise specified, references to a Section or clause refer to 
Sections or clauses of this Deed.  The word “including” and words of similar import shall mean
