THIS PARTIAL UNWIND AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) with respect to the Call Option Transaction Confirmations (as defined below)
and the Warrants Confirmations (as defined below) is made as of June 25, 2014, between Group 1 Automotive, Inc. (the “Company”) and Bank of America, N.A. (“Dealer”). 

WHEREAS, the Company and Dealer entered into a Base Call Option Transaction Confirmation dated as of March 16, 2010 (the “Base
Call Option Transaction Confirmation”) and an Additional Call Option Transaction Confirmation dated as of March 29, 2010 (the “Additional Call Option Transaction Confirmation” and together with the Base Call Option
Transaction Confirmation, the “Call Option Transaction Confirmations”), relating to USD 115,000,000 principal amount of 3.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2020 (the “Convertible Notes”); 

WHEREAS, the Company and Dealer entered into a Base Warrants Confirmation, dated as of March 16, 2010, (the “Base Warrants
Confirmation”) and an Additional Warrants Confirmation, dated as of March 29, 2010, (the “Additional Warrants Confirmation” and together with the Base Warrants Confirmation, the “Warrants
Confirmations”), pursuant to which the Company issued to Dealer warrants to purchase shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company; 

WHEREAS, the Company has repurchased a portion of the Convertible Notes; 

WHEREAS, the Company has requested, and Dealer has agreed, to terminate in full the Additional Call Option Transaction Confirmation and unwind
the Base Call Option Transaction Confirmation with respect to a portion of the Number of Options included in such confirmation; 
 WHEREAS,
the Company has requested, and Dealer has agreed, to terminate in full the Additional Warrants Confirmation and unwind the Base Warrants Confirmation with respect to a portion of the Number of Warrants included therein; 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of their mutual covenants herein contained, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby
mutually covenant and agree as follows: 
 1. Defined Terms. Any capitalized term not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning
set forth for such term in the Call Option Transaction Confirmations or the Warrants Confirmations, as applicable. 
 2. Partial Call
Option Unwind. Upon the payment referred to in Section 5 below, the Additional Call Option Transaction Confirmation will be terminated in full (and all rights and obligations of each party thereunder shall be extinguished) and the Number of
Options in the Base Call Option Transaction Confirmation shall be reduced to 22,550. 
 3. Partial Warrants Unwind. Upon the payment
referred to in Section 5 below, the Additional Warrants Confirmation will be terminated in full (and all rights and obligations of each party thereunder shall be extinguished) and Number of Warrants set forth in the Base Warrants Confirmation
shall be reduced to 303,694 which, for the avoidance of doubt, reflects all adjustments to the Number of Warrants for the period since the date of the Base Warrants Confirmation pursuant to the terms thereof. 

4. Measurement Dates. For purposes of this agreement, “Measurement Date” means each of the 5 consecutive Scheduled
Trading Days from and including the first Scheduled Trading Day immediately following the date of this Agreement (it being understood that any Scheduled Trading Day on which, as of the date hereof, the Exchange is scheduled to close prior to its
normal close of trading shall be deemed not to be a Measurement Date); provided, however, that if such date is a Disrupted Day in whole, such date shall not constitute a Measurement Date, and an additional Measurement Date shall occur on the
Scheduled Trading Day after the date that would otherwise be the final Measurement Date. The “Measurement Period” means the period from and including the first Measurement Date to and including the final Measurement Date. 






 5. Payments. In consideration for the terminations and partial unwinds referred to in
Sections 2 and 3 above, on the first Scheduled Trading Day following the conclusion of the Measurement Period, or if such day is not a Clearance System Business Day, on the next Clearance System Business Day immediately following such day, Dealer
shall pay to the Company in immediately available funds, cash in an amount equal to the product of (i) 1,245,081 multiplied by (ii) the Cash Settlement Amount per Option in respect of such Measurement Period. “Cash
Settlement Amount per Option” means the amount as determined based on the grid attached as Exhibit A to this Agreement. 

6. Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company represents and warrants to Dealer on the date hereof that:

of the Base Call Option Transaction Confirmation and the Base Warrants Confirmation shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby confirmed in all respects. 

10. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect

 If the Cash Settlement Amount per Option is not specified on the grid above, Cash Settlement Amount per Option shall be
determined by Dealer based on a straight-line interpolation between the Unwind Prices or extrapolation from the Unwind Prices (as the case may be) specified on the grid above. 

“Unwind Price” means the arithmetic average of the VWAP Prices for all of the Measurement Dates during the Measurement Period. 

“VWAP Price” for any Scheduled Trading Day means the per Share volume-weighted average price as displayed under the heading “Bloomberg
VWAP” on Bloomberg page GPI.N <equity> AQR (or any successor thereto) in respect of the period from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such Scheduled Trading Day (or if such volume-weighted average price is unavailable, the
market value of one Share on such Scheduled Trading Day, as determined by Dealer). 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if
(i) any Scheduled Trading Day during any Measurement Period is a Disrupted Day (as defined in the Warrant Confirmation) or (ii) Dealer determines in its commercially reasonable judgment that on any Scheduled Trading Day during the
Measurement Period an extension of such Measurement Period is reasonably necessary or appropriate to preserve Dealer’s hedge unwind activity hereunder in light of existing liquidity conditions or to enable Dealer to effect sales of Shares in
connection with its hedge unwind activity hereunder in a manner that would be in compliance with applicable legal, regulatory or self-regulatory requirements, or with related policies and procedures applicable to Dealer, then the VWAP Price for such
Scheduled Trading Day(s) shall be the volume-weighted average price per Share on such Scheduled Trading Day on the Exchange, as determined by the Dealer based on such sources as it deems appropriate using a volume-weighted methodology, for the
portion of such Scheduled Trading Day for which Dealer determines there is no Market Disruption Event and the number of Measurement Dates and the Unwind Price for the Measurement Period shall be adjusted by Dealer to account for such disruption
and/or extension. 
 Dealer may adjust the table above upon the occurrence of any event or condition that would have allowed Dealer to adjust the terms of
the transactions evidenced by the Warrants Confirmations.
