LTIP AWARD AGREEMENT
For the Period January 1, 2017 – December 31, 2019


THIS LTIP AWARD AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made by and between Federal-Mogul LLC (Motorparts segment), a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and [Name], an officer or employee of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company (the “Participant”) effective as of January 1, 2017.


In consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Participant hereby agree as follows:


1.    GRANT.  The Company hereby grants to the Participant identified above a “Bonus Award” (sometimes referred to herein as the “Award”) (calculated in the manner set forth herein and the Plan) subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and the Plan (defined below) (the "Terms").  No Bonus Award will be paid or payable hereunder unless the Participant earns the Bonus Award pursuant to Sections 6 and/or 7 hereof and Section V of the Federal-Mogul LLC (Motorparts segment) 2017 Long-Term Performance Plan effective as of January 1, 2017 (the “Plan”).  This Bonus Award is granted pursuant to and is subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan.  A copy of the Plan is attached as an exhibit hereto and the terms and conditions thereof are incorporated herein by this reference and are expressly made part of this Agreement.  All terms used herein and defined in the Plan shall, unless otherwise defined herein, have the same meaning set forth in the Plan.  The Bonus Award granted hereby is non-transferable except as otherwise permitted under the Plan.


2.    PERFORMANCE PERIOD.  The Performance Period for this Award shall be the three-year period commencing on January 1, 2017 and ending on December 31, 2019.   


3.    VESTING. The Performance-based portion of the Award shall be earned in accordance with Sections 6 and/or 7 hereof, subject to the Participant’s continuous employment throughout the Performance Period. The Service-based portion of the Award shall fully vest at the end of the three-year Performance Period, subject to the Participant’s continued employment with the Company through the applicable payment date.


4.      PERFORMANCE MEASURE.  The performance measure for the Performance Period shall have two elements: the cumulative Operational EBITDA for the Performance Period; and ROWA (as defined below) for the Performance Period. “Operational EBITDA” is defined as disclosed in the Company’s public filings or audited financial statements in a manner consistent with past practices.   


Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, for purposes of calculating Operational EBITDA and ROWA, the Compensation Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, adjust the calculation of Operational EBITDA and ROWA, or their respective targets, based on approved capital expansion plans, acquisitions, changes in foreign currency exchange rates and other changes in Company business for events or actions during the course of the Performance Period that vary from business plan assumptions or that are unusual, infrequent and/or non-recurring (including but not limited to goodwill impairments or legacy costs).  For purposes of clarification, the Operational EBITDA performance target set forth in Section 6 is based on the Company’s current business plan.


“ROWA” shall be expressed as a percentage and will be equal to the fiscal year earnings before interest, taxes and intangible amortization, divided by monthly average “Working Assets.”  “Working Assets” is equal to accounts receivable plus inventory, less accounts payable, plus PP&E (plant, property and equipment), 


 
 
    





capitalized software, plus investment in non-consolidated joint ventures.  The ROWA calculation will assume factoring levels remain consistent with 2017 budget levels.    


5.    SERVICE UNIT MEASURE. The service unit measure for the Performance Period shall be based upon the Participant remaining ‘in good standing’ for the entire Performance Period and will be further qualified pursuant to Sections 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 below.


6.    PERFORMANCE GOAL.

	i.
	Participant’s performance-based portion of the Award will equate to 75% of the total Award (see Section 7(a)).

Once approved, payment of the Award shall be made within 30 days after such approval but not later than June 30th of the calendar year following the end of the Performance Period.

Disability, each, a “Qualifying Event”, in each case on or after January 1, 2019 and prior to the end of the Performance Period, the Compensation Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, take action to cause the Participant (or in the case of the Participant's death, the Participant's beneficiary) to be entitled to receive an Award payout equal to the Bonus Award (calculated in accordance with Sections 6 and/or 7 hereof) as if he or she had remained employed until the last day of the Performance Period, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of full calendar months during the period of January 1, 2017 through the date the Participant's employment terminated due to a Qualifying Event and the denominator of which shall be thirty-six (36), the total number of months in the Performance Period.  The payment of any such amount shall be made according to same terms set forth in Section 8 above.

12.    NO LIMITATION ON RIGHTS OF THE COMPANY.

13.    CANCELLATION, RESCISSION, AND CLAWBACK OF AWARDS.
