WHEREAS, in furtherance of the foregoing, the Johnson Controls Board has determined that it is appropriate and desirable to separate the Adient Business from the Johnson Controls Business (the “Separation”) and, following the Separation, to make a distribution in specie of the Adient Business to the holders of Johnson Controls Shares on the Record Date, through (a) the transfer to Adient, which will have been re-registered as a public limited company, of Johnson Controls’ entire legal and beneficial interest in the issued share capital of Adient Global Holdings Ltd, an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Johnson Controls that has been formed to hold directly or indirectly the assets and liabilities associated with the Adient Business, and (b) the issuance of ordinary shares of Adient to holders of Johnson Controls Shares on the Record Date on a pro rata basis (the “Distribution”);

 

WHEREAS, in order to effectuate the Separation and the Distribution, Johnson Controls and Adient have entered into a Separation and Distribution Agreement, dated as of September 8, 2016 (the “Separation and Distribution Agreement”);

 

WHEREAS, in order to facilitate and provide for an orderly transition in connection with the Separation and the Distribution, the Parties desire to enter into this Agreement to set forth the terms and conditions pursuant to which each of the Parties shall provide Services to the other Party for a transitional period; and

ARTICLE II
 SERVICES

 

Section 2.01.                          Services.

 

(a)                                 Commencing as of the Effective Time, the Provider agrees to provide, or to cause one or more of its Subsidiaries to provide, to the Recipient, or any designated Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Recipient, the applicable services (each a “Service” and, collectively, the “Services”) set forth on the schedules hereto (each, a “Schedule” and, collectively, the “Schedules”).

 

(b)                                 During the Term, if a Party identifies a service that the other Party or any of its Subsidiaries provided to the identifying Party or any of its Subsidiaries during the twelve (12)-month period immediately prior to the Distribution Date, but such service was inadvertently omitted from the Services set forth in the Schedules hereto (an “Omitted Service”), then the Provider shall provide, or shall cause one of more of its Subsidiaries to provide, such Omitted Service, and the Parties shall negotiate in good faith the terms and conditions upon which the other Party shall provide such Omitted Service, which terms and conditions shall include the applicable Service Standard and shall otherwise be substantially in line with terms and conditions of such Omitted Service during the twelve (12)-month period immediately prior to the Distribution Date.

 

(c)                                  During the Term, either Party may request that the other Party modify, alter or adjust the manner in which the other Party provides Services (a “Service Change”).  Following the delivery of such request, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith the terms and conditions of such Service Change, which terms and conditions shall include the applicable Service Standard.

 

(d)                                 During the Term, either Party may request that the other Party provide an additional or different service that is not an Omitted Service and that does not constitute a Service

 

5











 

Change (a “New Service”).  The other Party shall consider such request, but nothing in this Agreement shall require the other Party to agree to provide such New Service.  If the other Party consents to providing the requested New Service, then the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to determine the terms and conditions upon which the other Party shall provide such requested New Service, including the applicable Service Standard.

 

(e)                                  The terms and conditions of any Omitted Service, agreed-upon Service Change or New Services that the providing Party consents to provide shall be documented in a supplement to the Schedules describing in reasonable detail the nature, scope, Charges, Service Period(s), termination provisions and other terms and conditions applicable to such Omitted Service, Service Change or New Service, as applicable, in a manner similar to that in which the Services are described in the Schedules.  Each supplement to the Schedules that is agreed to in writing by the Parties shall be deemed part of this Agreement as of the date of such agreement, and the Omitted Service, Service Change or New Service set forth therein shall be deemed a Service provided under this Agreement, in each case subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

 

Section 2.02.                          Performance of Services.

 

(a)                                 The Provider shall perform, or shall cause one or more of its Subsidiaries to perform, all Services to be provided by the Provider in a commercially reasonable manner (i) that is based on its past practice and that is substantially similar in all material respects to the analogous services provided by or on behalf of Johnson Controls or any of its Subsidiaries to Johnson Controls or its applicable functional group or Subsidiary during the twelve (12) months immediately prior to the Effective Time, if such service or a similar service was provided prior to the Effective Time, or (ii) that is based on its then-current practice and that is substantially similar in all material respects to the analogous services provided by or on behalf of Johnson Controls or any of its Subsidiaries to Johnson Controls or its applicable functional group or Subsidiary following the Effective Time (clause (i) or (ii), as applicable, the “Service Standard”).  Upon receipt of written notice from the Recipient identifying any outage, interruption, disruption, downturn or other failure of any Service (a “Service Interruption”), Provider shall use commercially reasonable efforts to respond, or to cause one or more of its Subsidiaries to respond, to such Service Interruption in a manner that is substantially similar to the manner in which Provider or its Affiliates responded to Service Interruptions during the twelve (12)-month period prior to the Effective Time or, if such service or a similar service was not provided prior to the Effective Time, in a manner that is substantially similar to the manner in which such Provider or its Affiliates respond with respect to internally provided services.

 

(b)                                 Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Provider to perform or cause to be performed any Service to the extent that the Provider reasonably believes that the manner of such performance would constitute (i) a breach, violation or infringement of, or a default under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any agreement, instrument, contract, obligation or undertaking which was entered into by such Provider prior to the date of this Agreement or (ii) a violation of any applicable Law.  If the Provider is or becomes aware of any potential violation on the part of the Provider, the Provider shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly advise the Recipient of such potential violation, and the Provider and the Recipient will mutually seek an alternative that addresses such potential violation.  The Parties agree to cooperate

 

6











 

in good faith and use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any necessary Third Party consents required under any existing contract or agreement with a Third Party or under applicable Law to allow the Provider to perform, or cause to be performed, all Services to be provided by the Provider hereunder in accordance with the standards set forth in this Section 2.02.  Without limiting the foregoing, neither Party shall under any circumstance be required to (and the Provider shall not, without the prior written consent of the Recipient) pay or commit to pay any amount or incur any obligation in favor of or offer or grant any accommodation (financial or otherwise, including any requirements for the securing or posting of any bonds, letters of credit or similar instruments, or the furnishing of any guarantees) to obtain any such Third Party consent, except that the Provider shall be required to make one such payment, commitment or accommodation if required by such Third Party (a “One-Time Payment”).  Unless otherwise agreed in writing in advance by the Parties, other than One-Time Payments, all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (if any) incurred by the Recipient or any of its Subsidiaries or, with the Recipient’s prior written consent, the Provider or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with obtaining any such Third Party consent that is required to allow the Provider to perform or cause to be performed such Services shall be borne solely by the Recipient.  If, with respect to a Service, the Parties, despite the use of such commercially reasonable efforts and the making of a One-Time Payment, are unable to obtain a required Third Party consent, or the performance of such Service by the Provider would constitute a violation of any applicable Law, the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to develop an alternative arrangement that is reasonably acceptable to each Party and that enables the Provider to perform or cause to be performed such Service or an analogous service without obtaining such required Third Party consent or violating any applicable Law.

 

(c)                                  The Provider shall not be obligated to perform or to cause to be performed any Service in a manner that is materially more burdensome (with respect to service quality or quantity) than analogous services provided to Johnson Controls or its applicable functional group or Subsidiary (collectively referred to as the “Level of Service”) during Johnson Controls’ fiscal year 2016 (the “Service Baseline Period”).  A Service shall be deemed materially more burdensome if, among other items, its usage exceeds the highest quantity of analogous services provided to the functional groups or Subsidiaries of Johnson Controls that are part of the Recipient during the Service Baseline Period, or if the Provider is required to hire new employees, engage new contractors or make capital investments in respect of such Service greater than the maximum number of employees or contractors dedicated at any time to analogous services, or investments made by Johnson Controls with respect to analogous services, during the Service Baseline Period.  If the Recipient requests that the Provider perform or cause to be performed any Service that exceeds the Level of Service during the Service Baseline Period, including any acquisition or upgrade of technology, software or information systems, then the Parties shall cooperate and act in good faith to determine whether the Provider will be required to provide such requested higher Level of Service.  If and to the extent that the Parties determine that the Provider shall provide the requested higher Level of Service, then such higher Level of Service shall be documented in a supplement to the Schedules.  Each such supplement, as agreed to in writing by the Parties, shall be deemed part of this Agreement as of the date of such written agreement and the Level of Service increases set forth in such written agreement shall be deemed a part of the Services provided under this Agreement, in each case subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(d)                                 (i) Neither the Provider nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to perform or to cause to be performed any of the Services for the benefit of any Third Party or any other Person other than the Recipient and its Subsidiaries, and (ii) EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS SECTION 2.02 OR SECTION 7.03, EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ALL SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS-IS” BASIS, THAT THE RECIPIENT ASSUMES ALL RISK AND LIABILITY ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO ITS USE OF AND RELIANCE UPON THE SERVICES, AND THAT THE PROVIDER MAKES NO OTHER REPRESENTATIONS OR GRANTS ANY WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, EITHER IN FACT OR BY OPERATION OF LAW, BY STATUTE OR OTHERWISE, WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICES.  EACH PARTY SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER WRITTEN OR ORAL, OR EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF QUALITY, MERCHANTABILITY, OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR USE OR PURPOSE OR THE NON-INFRINGEMENT OF ANY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF THIRD PARTIES.

 

(ii)                                  Each Party shall be responsible for its own compliance with any and all Laws applicable to its performance under this Agreement.  No Party shall knowingly take any action in violation of any such applicable Law that results in Liability being imposed on the other Party.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, (i) neither Party shall, in connection with its performance or use of Services under this Agreement, knowingly take any action, or fail to take any action that Johnson Controls took in the ordinary course during the Service Baseline Period in connection with such Service, if the taking of such action or failure to take such action would materially adversely affect the ability of the other Party and its Subsidiaries or Affiliates to comply with such applicable Laws, and (ii) the Provider shall not have any obligation to provide, or cause to be provided, Services to the extent that any change in applicable Law after the date of this Agreement provision would materially increase or change the Provider’s burden or the burden of any applicable Subsidiary of the Provider with respect to compliance with applicable Laws, unless the applicable Recipient agrees to bear all incremental costs resulting from the increased compliance burden associated with providing such Services; provided, that the Provider shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly advise the Recipient of such increased burden, and the Provider and the Recipient will mutually seek an alternative that minimizes such increased burden.

 

Section 2.03.                          Charges for Services.  Unless otherwise provided with respect to a specific Service on the Schedules hereto, the Recipient shall pay the Provider of the Services a fee (either one-time or recurring) for such Services (or category of Services, as applicable) (each fee constituting a “Charge” and, collectively, “Charges”), which Charges shall be set forth on the applicable Schedules hereto, or if not set forth, then based upon the actual cost of providing such Services as agreed to by the Parties from time to time.  During the Term, the amount of a Charge for any Service may be modified to the extent of (a) any adjustments mutually agreed to in writing by the Parties, (b) any adjustments due to a change in Level of Service requested by the Recipient and agreed upon by the Provider, and (c) any adjustment in the rates or charges imposed by any Third Party provider that is providing Services pursuant to the existing agreement with such Third Party provider for such Services or any renewal thereof that contains substantially similar terms (proportional to the respective use of such Services by each Party).  Each Party

 

8











 

shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the cost of providing the Services. Together with any invoice for Charges, the Provider shall provide the Recipient with reasonable documentation, including any additional documentation reasonably requested by the Recipient to the extent that such documentation is in the Provider’s or its Subsidiaries’ possession or control, to support the calculation of such Charges.

 

Section 2.04.                          Reimbursement for Out-of-Pocket Costs and Expenses.  The Recipient shall reimburse the Provider for reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Provider or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with providing the Services (including reasonable travel-related expenses) to the extent that such costs and expenses are not reflected in the Charges for such Services; provided, that any such cost or expense in excess of five thousand dollars ($5,000.00), in the aggregate, that is not consistent with the historical practice between the Parties for any individual Service (including business travel and related expenses) shall require advance written approval of the Recipient.  Any authorized travel-related expenses incurred in performing the Services shall be incurred and charged to the Recipient in accordance with the Provider’s then-applicable business travel policies.

 

Section 2.05.                          Changes in the Performance of Services.  Subject to the performance standards for Services set forth in Section 2.02(a), Section 2.02(b) and Section 2.02(c), the Provider may make changes from time to time in the manner of performing the Services if the Provider is making similar changes in performing analogous services for itself and if the Provider furnishes to the Recipient reasonable prior written notice (in content and timing) of such changes; provided, that no such change shall have a significant adverse effect on the timeliness or quality of, or the Charges for, the applicable Service.  If any such change by the Provider reasonably requires the Recipient to incur an increase in costs and expenses to continue to receive and utilize the applicable Services in the same manner as the Recipient was receiving and utilizing such Service prior to such change, the Provider shall be required to reimburse the Recipient for all such reasonable increase in costs and expenses.  Upon request, the Recipient shall provide the Provider with reasonable documentation, including any additional documentation reasonably requested by the Provider to the extent that such documentation is in the Recipient’s or its Subsidiaries’ possession or control, to support the calculation of such increase in costs and expenses.

 

Section 2.06.                          Transitional Nature of Services.  The Parties acknowledge the transitional nature of the Services.  The Recipient agrees to cooperate in good faith and to use commercially reasonable efforts to effectuate a smooth transition of the Services from the Provider to the Recipient (or its designee) as soon as commercially practicable after the Distribution Date, but in any event before the end of the Service period for such Service (as described in Section 5.01). The Parties agree to use reasonable efforts to assist and cooperate in good faith with each other in order to effectuate such transition of the Services from the Provider to the Recipient (or its designee) in a timely and orderly manner.

 

Section 2.07.                    Subcontracting.  The Provider may hire or engage one or more Third Parties to perform any or all of its obligations under this Agreement; provided, that if a Third Party was not already performing such obligation on behalf of the Provider immediately prior to the Distribution Date, the Provider shall (a) notify the Recipient prior to hiring or engaging such Third Party and (b) obtain the Recipient’s prior consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) if (i) the hiring or engagement of such Third Party

would decrease the quality or level of the Services provided to the Recipient compared to the quality or level of Services provided by the Provider or (ii) the use of such Third Party would increase the Charges payable by the Recipient in connection with such Services; provided, further, that the Provider shall in all cases remain primarily responsible for all of its obligations under this Agreement with respect to the scope of the Services, the performance standard for Services set forth in Section 2.02(a), Section 2.02(b) and Section 2.02(c) and the content of the Services provided to the Recipient.  Subject to the confidentiality provisions set forth in Article VI, each Party shall, and shall cause its respective Affiliates to, provide, upon ten (10) business days’ prior written notice from the other Party, any Information within such Party’s or its Affiliates’ possession that the requesting Party reasonably requests in connection with any Services being provided to such requesting Party by a Third Party, including any applicable invoices, agreements documenting the arrangements between such Third Party and the Provider and other supporting documentation.

Section 5.02.                          Early Termination.

 

(a)                                 Without prejudice to the Recipient’s rights with respect to Force Majeure, the Recipient may from time to time terminate this Agreement with respect to the entirety of any individual Service but not a portion thereof:

 

(i)                                     for any reason or no reason, upon the giving of at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Provider of such Service; provided, that if a Schedule hereto sets forth a different notice period, then the Recipient shall comply with such different notice periods; provided, further, that any such termination shall be subject to the obligation to pay any applicable Early Termination Charges pursuant to Section 5.04; or

 

(ii)                                  if the Provider of such Service has failed to perform any of its material obligations under this Agreement with respect to such Service, and such failure shall continue to be uncured for a period of at least thirty (30) days after receipt by the Provider of written notice of such failure (the “Notice of Breach”) from the Recipient; provided, that the Recipient shall not be entitled to terminate this Agreement with respect to the applicable Service if, as of the end of such period, there remains a good-faith Dispute between the Parties (undertaken in

 

12











 

accordance with the terms of Section 9.16) as to whether the Provider has breached this Agreement or cured the applicable breach.

 

(b)                                 The Provider may terminate this Agreement with respect to any individual Service, but not a portion thereof, at any time upon prior written notice to the Recipient, if the Recipient has failed to perform any of its material obligations under this Agreement relating to such Service, including making payment of Charges for such Service when due, and such failure shall continue to be uncured for a period of at least thirty (30) days after receipt by the Recipient of the Notice of Breach from the Provider; provided, that the Provider shall not be entitled to terminate this Agreement with respect to the applicable Service if, as of the end of such period, there remains a good-faith Dispute between the Parties (undertaken in accordance with the terms of Section 9.16) as to whether the Recipient materially breached this Agreement or has cured the applicable breach.

 

(c)                                  The Schedules hereto shall be updated to reflect any terminated Service.

 

Section 5.03.                          Interdependencies.  The Parties acknowledge and agree that (a) there may be interdependencies among the Services being provided under this Agreement; (b) upon the request of either Party, the Parties shall cooperate and act in good faith to determine whether (i) any such interdependencies exist with respect to the particular Service that a Party is seeking to terminate pursuant to Section 5.02 (the “To-be-Terminated Service”) and (ii) in the case of such termination, the Provider’s ability to provide a particular Service in accordance with this Agreement would be materially and adversely affected by such termination of another Service (the “Adversely Affected Service”); and (c) in the event that the Parties have determined that such interdependencies exist and such termination would materially and adversely affect the Provider’s ability to provide a particular Service in accordance with this Agreement, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to amend the Schedules hereto with respect to such Adversely Affected Service, which amendment shall be consistent with the terms of comparable Services.  If, after such negotiations, the Parties are unable to agree on an amendment with respect to the Adversely Affected Service, the Dispute between the Parties shall be resolved in accordance with the terms of Section 9.16, and the Provider’s obligation to provide, and the Recipient’s obligation to pay for, the To-be-Terminated Service and the Adversely Affected Service shall continue until the resolution of such Dispute.

 

Section 5.04.                          Effect of Termination.  Upon the termination of any Service pursuant to this Agreement, the Provider of the terminated Service shall have no further obligation to provide the terminated Service, and the Recipient of such Service shall have no obligation to pay any future Charges relating to such Service; provided, that the Recipient shall remain obligated to the Provider for (a) the Charges owed and payable in respect of Services provided prior to the effective date of termination for such Service, and (b) any applicable Early Termination Charges (which, in the case of each of clauses (a) and (b), shall be payable only in the event that the Recipient terminates any Service pursuant to Section 5.02(a)(i)) (it being understood that the Parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any such Early Termination Charges). Any Dispute regarding Charges and Early Termination Charges, and any refund or reimbursement of Charges or Early Termination Charges paid by the Recipient, shall be resolved in accordance with the terms of Section 9.16.  In connection with the termination of any Service, the provisions of this Agreement not relating solely to such terminated Service shall survive any

 

13











 

such termination, and in connection with a termination of this Agreement, Article I, this Article V, Article VII and Article IX, all confidentiality obligations under this Agreement and Liability for all due and unpaid Charges, and Early Termination Charges shall continue to survive.

If any Confidential Information of a Party or any of its Subsidiaries is disclosed to the other Party or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with providing the Services, then such disclosed Confidential Information shall be used by the receiving Party only as required to perform such Services.

 

Section 6.02.                    No Release; Return or Destruction.  Each Party agrees (a) not to release or disclose, or permit to be released or disclosed, any Confidential Information of the other Party addressed in Section 6.01 to any other Person, except its Representatives who need to know such Confidential Information in their capacities as such (who shall be advised of and have acknowledged in writing their obligations hereunder with respect to such Confidential Information)

 

14











 

and except in compliance with Section 6.04, and (b) to use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain such Confidential Information in accordance with Section 6.4 of the Separation and Distribution Agreement.  Without limiting the foregoing, when any such Confidential Information is no longer needed for the purposes contemplated by the Separation and Distribution Agreement, this Agreement or any other Ancillary Agreements, each Party will promptly after request of the other Party either return to the other Party all such Confidential Information in a tangible form (including all copies thereof and all notes, extracts or summaries based thereon) or notify the other Party in writing that it has destroyed such information (and such copies thereof and such notes, extracts or summaries based thereon); provided, that such Party’s Representatives may retain one (1) copy of such information to the extent required by applicable Law or professional standards, and shall not be required to destroy any such information located in back-up, archival electronic storage.

 

Section 6.03.                          Privacy and Data Protection Laws; Residual Information.

Section 6.04.                          Protective Arrangements.  In the event that a Party or any of its Subsidiaries either determines on the advice of its counsel that it is required to disclose any information pursuant to applicable Law or receives any request or demand under lawful process or from any Governmental Authority to disclose or provide information of the other Party (or any of its Subsidiaries) that is subject to the confidentiality provisions hereof, such Party shall notify the other Party (to the extent legally permitted) as promptly as practicable under the circumstances prior to disclosing or providing such information and shall cooperate, at the expense of the other Party, in seeking any appropriate protective order requested by the other Party.  In the event that such other Party fails to receive such appropriate protective order in a timely manner and the Party receiving the request or demand reasonably determines that its failure to disclose or provide such information shall actually prejudice the Party receiving the request or demand, then the Party that received such request or demand may thereafter disclose or provide information to the extent required by such Law (as so advised by its counsel) or by lawful process or such Governmental Authority, and the disclosing Party shall promptly provide the other Party with a copy of the information so disclosed, in the same form and format so disclosed, together with a list of all Persons to whom such information was disclosed, in each case to the extent legally permitted.

Section 9.11.                          Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof, or the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances or in jurisdictions other than those as to which it has been held invalid or unenforceable, shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby.  Upon such determination, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon such a suitable and equitable provision to effect the original intent of the Parties.

 

Section 9.12.                          Force Majeure.  No Party shall be deemed in default of this Agreement for any delay or failure to fulfill any obligation hereunder (other than the obligation to pay money for Charges and Early Termination Charges, if any, incurred) so long as and to the extent to which any delay or failure in the fulfillment of such obligations is prevented, frustrated, hindered or delayed as a consequence of circumstances of Force Majeure.

A Party claiming the benefit of this provision shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after the occurrence of any such Force Majeure, (a) provide written notice to the other Party of the nature and extent of any such Force Majeure; and (b) use commercially reasonable efforts to remove any such causes and resume performance under this Agreement as soon as reasonably practicable (and in no event later than the date that the affected Party resumes providing analogous services to, or otherwise resumes analogous performance under any other agreement for, itself, its Affiliates or any Third Party), unless this Agreement has previously been terminated under Article V.  The Recipient shall be relieved of the obligation to pay Charges for the affected Service(s) throughout the duration of such Force Majeure.  If any Force Majeure prevents, hinders, or delays the performance by the Provider, the Recipient may procure the affected Services from an alternate source, including the Recipient’s personnel (with the Provider reimbursing the Recipient for the cost of procuring the affected Services from such alternate source) throughout the duration of such Force Majeure, and the Provider shall cooperate in good faith with, provide any required Information to, and take such other action as may be reasonable required to enable such alternate source to provide the affected Services.

Section 9.19.                          Precedence of Schedules.
