     This INSURANCE ALLOCATION AGREEMENT (this "Agreement"), dated as of
February 28, 2003 (the "Closing Date"), is entered into by and between NORTHROP

Article I of the Master Purchase Agreement);

     WHEREAS, the Company (as defined in the Master Purchase Agreement) and its
Subsidiaries currently maintain insurance coverage under TRW's insurance

among other things, allocate between TRW and TAAC certain insurance policies and
arrangements of TRW and related coverages.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the covenants and
agreements contained in this Agreement, the parties hereto agree as follows:

                                   ARTICLE I.

                                   DEFINITIONS

     As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following
meanings:

     1.1 "Automotive Business" shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in the
Master Purchase Agreement.

     1.2 "Company Liabilities" shall have the same meaning as Automotive
Liabilities in the Master Purchase Agreement.

                                       2


     1.3 "Company Policies" shall mean all insurance policies that provide or
have provided insurance coverage and that are held by the Company, any
Transferred Entity or any of their Subsidiaries, including any insurance
policies held by Kelsey-Hayes Company, Fruehauf Corporation and Lucas
Industries, Inc.

     1.4 "Current TRW Policies" shall mean Property and Casualty insurance
policies that insure TRW or one or more of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates and
that have policy periods that extend beyond the Closing Date.

     1.5 "Other Policies" shall mean Property and Casualty insurance policies
that provide or have provided insurance coverage to TRW or one or more of its
Subsidiaries or Affiliates as a result of the acquisition of the assets or
shares of, or mergers or consolidations with, other Persons that had previously
purchased such policies or that had succeeded to rights to obtain coverage from
such policies prior to the time of the acquisition, merger or consolidation by
or with TRW or one or more of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates (other than Company
Policies).

     1.6 "Prior TRW Policies" shall mean all Property and Casualty insurance

                              CURRENT TRW POLICIES

     2.1 With respect to the integrated risk policies listed in Schedule A to
this Agreement, which were issued for the period from May 1, 2000 to May 1,
2003, TRW will provide TAAC and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates such insurance
as is afforded by those policies to the extent that TRW has the right to do so
without paying additional premium under those policies. Prior to the currently
scheduled expiration date of those policies, which is May 1, 2003, TRW shall not
cancel, terminate or amend those policies in a manner that adversely affects
coverage for TAAC or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates. TRW shall use its
reasonable best efforts, including approaching such insurers jointly with TAAC
if requested by TAAC, to obtain written confirmation from the insurers that
issued those policies that TAAC and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates shall
continue to be "Insured(s)" under those policies as the term "Insured(s)" is
defined in those policies from the Closing Date to May 1, 2003. In the event
that TRW does not have the right to make TAAC and its Subsidiaries and
Affiliates "Insureds" under those policies (or the insurers refuse to provide
confirmation of TRW's right to do so), TAAC shall be obligated at its own
expense to obtain replacement coverage (or to bear the risk that such coverage
is not available under the current policies).

     2.2 With respect to the aviation products liability policies listed in
Schedule B to this Agreement, which were issued for the period from May 1, 2002
to May 1, 2003, TRW will provide TAAC and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates such
insurance as is afforded by those policies to the extent that it has the right
to do so without paying additional premium under those policies. Prior to the
currently scheduled expiration date of those policies, which is May 1, 2003, TRW
shall not cancel, terminate or amend those policies in a manner that adversely
affects coverage for TAAC or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates. TRW shall use its
reasonable best efforts, including approaching such insurers jointly with TAAC
if requested by TAAC, to obtain written confirmation from the insurers that
issued those policies that TAAC and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates shall
continue to be "Insured(s)" under those policies as the term "Insured(s)" is
defined in those policies from the Closing Date to May 1, 2003. In the event
that TRW does not have the right to make TAAC and its Subsidiaries and
Affiliates "Insureds" under those policies (or the insurers refuse to provide
confirmation of TRW's right to do so), TAAC shall be obligated at its own
expense to obtain replacement coverage (or to bear the risk that such coverage
is not available under the current policies).

     2.3 For the six-year period commencing immediately after the date hereof,
TRW shall maintain in effect TRW's current directors' and officers' liability
insurance policies providing coverage as respects acts or omissions occurring
prior to the Closing Date with respect to those Persons who are currently
covered by TRW's directors' and officers' liability insurance policy on terms
and at limits no less favorable to TAAC's directors and officers currently
covered by policies in effect on the date hereof; provided, also, that if TRW's
current directors' and officers' liability insurance expires, is terminated or
is canceled during such six-year period, TRW shall obtain directors' and
officers' liability insurance covering such acts or omissions with respect to
each such Person on terms and at limits no less favorable to TAAC's directors
and officers currently covered by policies in effect immediately prior to the
date of such expiration, termination or cancellation.

     2.4 Except as expressly set forth above, the policy period of all Current
TRW Policies as to TAAC and its Subsidiaries or their respective Affiliates
shall be deemed to end on the Closing Date, and TAAC shall be obligated to
obtain its own separate replacement insurance policies for the period that
commences on the Closing Date.

                                  ARTICLE III.

        RIGHTS IN POLICIES WITH INCEPTION DATES PRIOR TO THE CLOSING DATE

     3.1 The Company and its Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date are hereby
assigned whatever coverage is provided for Company Liabilities under the Current
TRW Policies, Prior TRW Policies, Other Policies and Company Policies in
accordance with the terms of such policies and applicable principles of law and
equity, subject to the applicable limits of such policies.

     3.2 TRW and its Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date hereby retain whatever
coverage is provided for TRW Liabilities under the Current TRW Policies and
Prior TRW Policies and


                                       4


Other Policies (other than Company Policies) in accordance with the terms of
such policies and applicable principles of law and equity, subject to the
applicable limits of such policies.

     3.3 For purposes of the exhaustion of any limits that apply to coverage
available under Current TRW Policies, Prior TRW Policies or Other Policies
(other than Company Policies) amounts shall be allocated to the policies on a
first come/first served basis. That means that amounts covered by such policies
shall be allocated to such policies in the order in which such amounts were paid
by the insurance companies.

     3.4 TAAC shall retain whatever insurance coverage is provided for by the
Company Policies.

                                   ARTICLE IV.

                   SELF-INSURED RETENTIONS AND RELATED MATTERS

     4.1 With respect to TRW Liabilities, TRW shall pay or cause to be paid any
self-insured retentions, deductibles, retrospective premiums or other amounts
payable after the Closing Date by an insured that apply under Current TRW
Policies, Prior TRW Policies or Other Policies. In addition, to the extent that
there is any obligation after the Closing Date to provide or continue to provide
security or collateral to any insurer with respect to TRW Liabilities, TRW shall
provide or cause to be provided such security or collateral and pay or cause to
be paid the cost of doing so.

         4.2 Without limiting the rights of TAAC and its Subsidiaries and
Affiliates to indemnification under the Master Purchase Agreement, with respect
to Company Liabilities, TAAC shall pay or cause to be paid any self-insured
retentions, deductibles, retrospective premiums or other amounts payable after
the Closing Date by an insured that apply under Current TRW Policies, Prior TRW
Policies or Other Policies. In addition, to the extent that there is any
obligation after the Closing Date to provide or continue to provide security or
collateral to any insurer with respect to Company Liabilities, TAAC shall
provide or cause to be provided such security or collateral and pay or cause to
be paid the cost of doing so.

         4.3 To the extent that TRW continues after the Closing Date to make
payments that TAAC is obligated to make under Section 4.2, whether as a result
of contractual obligations or for the purpose of ensuring a smooth transition or
otherwise, TAAC shall reimburse TRW for such payments. Similarly, to the extent
that TAAC continues after the Closing Date to make payments that TRW is
obligated to make under Section 4.1, whether as a result of contractual
obligations or for the purpose of ensuring a smooth transition or otherwise, TRW
shall reimburse TAAC for such payments.

         4.4 To the extent that TRW continues after the Closing Date to provide
security or collateral to any insurer with respect to Company Liabilities, TAAC
shall: (a) use commercially reasonable efforts, in cooperation with TRW, to
persuade the insurer to release TRW from such obligation and to substitute
security or collateral from TAAC; (b) to the extent requested by TRW, at the
expense of TAAC, provide TRW with equivalent security or collateral during such


                                       5


time period as TRW is providing such security or collateral to insurers with
respect to Company Liabilities; or (c) reimburse TRW for the cost of continuing
to provide such security or collateral.

     4.5 For purposes of the application of any self-insured retentions,
deductibles, retrospective premiums or other amounts payable by an insured that
apply under Current TRW Policies, Prior TRW Policies or Other Policies, amounts
shall be applied on a first come/first served basis. That means that amounts
shall be applied in the order in which such amounts were paid by or on behalf of
TRW, TAAC, or their respective Subsidiaries. Where the limits apply to amounts
that are not paid by or on behalf of TRW, TAAC, or their respective
Subsidiaries, for example, in the case of first party coverage for the value of
property that is destroyed but not replaced, amounts shall be allocated to such
limits in the order in which the relevant losses occurred.

     4.6 With respect to all Property and Casualty insurance policies issued at
any time prior to the Closing Date by TRW Risk Management Inc. and Inlake
Insurance Limited:

          (a) TAAC and its Subsidiaries, and all Persons insured under those
policies with respect to Company Liabilities, are not entitled under such
policies to have any further payments made to them or on their behalf after the
Closing Date;

          (b) TAAC and its Subsidiaries, each on its own behalf and on behalf of
all Persons insured under those policies with respect to Company Liabilities,
release TRW and all of its Subsidiaries from any obligation under such policies
to make any payments to them or on their behalf after the Closing Date;

          (c) such policies shall be deemed to have been endorsed, and may at
any time actually be endorsed, with effect from their original inception dates
as having no obligation to make any payments after the Closing Date to or on
behalf of TAAC or its Subsidiaries, or to or on behalf of any Person insured
under such policies with respect to Company Liabilities; and

          (d) TAAC and its Subsidiaries shall indemnify TRW Risk Management
Inc., Inlake Insurance Limited, TRW and its Subsidiaries for all defense costs
and other amounts that may be incurred in connection with any claim by any
Person seeking the payment of additional sums after the Closing Date under such
policies to or on behalf of TAAC or its Subsidiaries, or to or on behalf of any
other Person allegedly entitled to payment under such policies with respect to
Company Liabilities.

     4.7 With respect to Company Liabilities that are insured under policies
issued by commercial insurers (including but not limited to FM Global, AIU,
Gerling, and Zurich Commercial) but reinsured in whole or in part by TRW Risk
Management Inc., the Company shall: (a) use commercially reasonable efforts, in
cooperation with TRW, to persuade the insurer to release TRW Risk Management
Inc. and Inlake Insurance Limited from such reinsurance obligation and
substitute a reinsurance obligation from the Company or one of its Subsidiaries;
(b) provide TRW Risk Management Inc. at the expense of the Company with
commercially reasonable security or collateral during such time period as TRW
Risk Management Inc. or Inlake Insurance Limited remains obligated to provide

cost of continuing to provide such reinsurance.

     4.8 TRW and TAAC shall make appropriate adjustments to accounting records
to adjust for changes made pursuant to Sections 4.6 and 4.7 of this Agreement.
For example, to the extent appropriate as a result of Sections 4.6 and 4.7, TRW
shall reduce reserves on the books of TRW Risk Management Inc. or Inlake
Insurance Limited (if any) relating to Company Liabilities, and TAAC shall
include appropriate reserves on its books for such liabilities.

     4.9 TAAC shall have the right but not the obligation to establish its own
Subsidiary to provide insurance with respect to Company Liabilities, including
but not limited to insurance to take the place of that previously provided by
TRW Risk Management Inc.

     4.10 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, TRW shall
have the right, in its sole discretion, after consultation with, and at least
sixty (60) days notice to, TAAC, to adopt a plan or agreement of complete or
partial liquidation, dissolution, restructuring, merger, consolidation,
recapitalization or other reorganization of TRW Risk Management Inc. and Inlake
Insurance Limited at any time after the date hereof; provided that TRW ensures
that any rights of TAAC or its Subsidiaries with respect to any coverage
provided by TRW Risk Management Inc. are not materially impaired.

                                   ARTICLE V.

            COOPERATION WITH RESPECT TO CLAIMS AND INSURANCE MATTERS

     5.1 With respect to TRW Liabilities, TRW shall have the right and the
responsibility to provide appropriate notice to insurers, administer claims to
the extent necessary or appropriate, submit claims to insurers for payment,
negotiate coverage questions that may arise, and to arbitrate, litigate and/or
compromise coverage disputes.

     5.2 With respect to Company Liabilities, TAAC shall have the right and the
responsibility to provide appropriate notice to insurers, administer claims to
the extent necessary or appropriate, submit claims to insurers for payment,
negotiate coverage questions that may arise, and to arbitrate, litigate and/or
compromise coverage disputes.

     5.3 The Company shall have the right to request assistance from TRW in
carrying out its responsibilities under Section 5.2 and other
risk-management-related tasks, including but not limited to the purchase of
other insurance policies. In response to such a request, TRW shall be obligated
during such period to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide such
assistance, either through its own personnel or through contractors (such as
insurance brokers, claims adjustors, or other insurance professionals) or
attorneys, but TAAC shall be obligated to reimburse TRW for all out-of-pocket
costs and expenses reasonably incurred in connection with providing such
assistance.

     5.4 (a) TRW and TAAC shall cooperate with each other, use commercially
reasonable efforts to take or cause to be taken all appropriate actions required
of such party, and do or cause to be done all things necessary or appropriate to
effectuate the provisions and purposes of this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby, including the execution of any additional documents or
instruments of any kind, the obtaining of consents that may be


                                       7


reasonably necessary or appropriate to carry out any of the provisions hereof,
and the taking of all such other actions as such party may reasonably be
requested to take by the other party from time to time consistent with the terms
of this Agreement.

          (b) By way of enumeration and not of limitation: (i) each party shall
be obligated to provide copies of insurance policies or evidence of the
existence of insurance to the other; (ii) each party shall be obligated to
provide the other with information reasonably necessary or helpful to either
party (including, without limitation, currently valued loss runs on an annual
basis for all lines of insurance for five calendar years after the Closing Date)
in connection with its efforts to obtain insurance coverage pursuant to and in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement or to purchase other insurance
policies; (iii) each party shall be obligated to provide information to the
other about amounts applied to the limits of policies or self-insured retentions
potentially applicable to both, and the basis for the application of such
amounts to such limits, so that each company can monitor the exhaustion of such
limits; and (iv) each party shall execute further assignments or allow the other
to pursue claims in its name (subject to appropriate disclosure of the fact that
it is doing so and the reasons why it is doing so), including by means of
arbitration or litigation, to the extent necessary or helpful to the other
party's efforts to obtain insurance coverage to which it is entitled under this
Agreement.

     5.5 TRW and TAAC shall be obligated to reimburse each other for
out-of-pocket costs and expenses reasonably incurred in connection with
providing cooperation and assistance to the other pursuant to Section 5.4.

     5.6 In the event of any arbitration or litigation with any insurers
concerning any Current TRW Policy, Prior TRW Policy or Other Policy that
potentially provides coverage for both TRW Liabilities and Company Liabilities,
TRW and TAAC shall be obligated to provide prompt notice to each other of the
initiation of such arbitration or litigation and to cooperate with efforts by
the other to intervene in such arbitration or litigation as a party or as an
amicus in order to protect its interests at its own expense. In the event that
such an arbitration or litigation is initiated by TRW or TAAC, such party shall
be obligated to notify the other at least ten (10) days prior to the initiation
of such proceeding (unless it is not reasonably possible to do so without
prejudicing the effort to obtain coverage), and the other party shall be
obligated to preserve the confidentiality of that information and to use it for
no purpose other than conferring with the other and considering whether or not
it should join that proceeding as a party or an amicus, or institute another
proceeding against one or more insurers in the same or some different forum at
some time after the first proceeding has been initiated.

     5.7 With respect to the application of the first come/first served
principles set forth in Sections 3.3 and 4.5, TRW, TAAC and their respective
Subsidiaries shall be obligated to act in good faith and to avoid taking any
actions for the purpose or with the intention of accelerating or delaying claims
payments or losses in order to obtain some advantage with respect to the
exhaustion of applicable limits. In addition, TRW, TAAC and their respective
Subsidiaries shall not enter into any written settlement agreement with any
insurer that has the effect of reducing limits that would otherwise be
potentially available under this Agreement to both TRW and TAAC or their
respective Subsidiaries without first giving the other party to this Agreement
at least ten (10) days advance written notice of its intention to enter into
such settlement accompanied by a copy of the proposed settlement so that the
other party may have an


                                       8


opportunity to consider the impact of such proposed settlement on its interests.
TRW and TAAC agree to consult with each other and negotiate in good faith about
such impacts.

     5.8 Neither TRW nor any of its Subsidiaries shall have any right to provide
any release under a Current TRW Policy, a Prior TRW Policy or an Other Policy
with respect to any rights that TAAC or any of its Subsidiaries may have under
that policy under this Agreement.

     5.9 Neither TAAC nor any of its Subsidiaries shall have any right to
provide any release under a Current TRW Policy, a Prior TRW Policy or an Other
Policy with respect to any rights that TRW or any of its Subsidiaries may have
under that policy under this Agreement.

except by an instrument or instruments in writing signed by an authorized
officer of each party. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any
failure of any of the parties to comply with any obligation, covenant, agreement
or condition herein may be waived by the party entitled to the benefits thereof
only by a written instrument signed by an authorized officer of the party
granting such waiver, but such waiver or failure to insist upon strict
compliance with such obligation, covenant, agreement or condition shall not
operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other
failure.

     6.3 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which
together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

     6.4 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Master Purchase Agreement, the
Northrop Grumman Disclosure Letter, the Ancillary Agreements, the Exhibits
hereto and the Schedules hereto constitute the entire agreement between the
parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersede and
cancel all prior agreements, negotiations, correspondence, undertakings,
understandings and communications of the parties, oral and written, with respect
to the subject matter hereof.

     6.5 Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned by either party without
the written consent of the other party hereto and any attempted assignment

may assign any or all of its rights, in whole or in part, to one or more
Affiliates of the Purchaser or to any Persons providing financing to the

rights, benefits or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this
Agreement.

     6.7 Severability. This Agreement shall be deemed severable; the invalidity

which shall remain in full force and effect, for so long as the economic or
legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is not
affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. If it is ever held that
any restriction hereunder is too broad to permit enforcement of such restriction

consents and agrees that such scope may be judicially modified accordingly in
any proceeding brought to enforce such restriction.

     6.8 Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in

                                       10


choice of laws, or any other law that would make the laws of any jurisdiction
other than Delaware applicable.

this Agreement, TRW or TAAC, as the case may be, shall send a written request
