(a) Upon written request by Indemnitee for indemnification or an advance pursuant to Section 8(a), a determination, if required by applicablelaw, 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 bedelivered 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 Directorsdesignated 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 writtenopinion 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 ofindemnification 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 suchdetermination. 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 IndependentCounsel 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 theidentity 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 thepreceding 

 
-9- 

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 casemay 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 assertedonly 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 suchobjection 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) andthe 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 Indemniteeto 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 areso resolved or the person so appointed shall act as Independent Counsel under Section 9(a).

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 notprohibited 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 fullestextent 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 theReviewing 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 determinationby 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 itsequivalent, 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 Indemniteereasonably 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.
