Indenture”), dated as of October 2, 2008 among the new guarantors set forth on Schedule I attached hereto, (the “New Guarantors”), each of which is a subsidiary of Sensata Technologies B.V., a private company
with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Netherlands (the “Company”), the existing Guarantors, and The Bank of New York Mellon, a New York banking corporation, as trustee under the Indenture referred to below (the
“Trustee”). 
 W I T N E S S E T H 
 WHEREAS, the Company and the existing Guarantors have heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee an indenture (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Indenture”), dated as of
July 23, 2008 providing for the issuance of 11.25% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2014 (the “Notes”); 
 WHEREAS,
Section 4.17 of the Indenture provides that under certain circumstances the New Guarantors shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture pursuant to which the New Guarantors shall unconditionally guarantee all of the
Company’s Obligations under the Notes and the Indenture on the terms and conditions set forth herein and therein (the “Guarantee”); and 
 WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, the Trustee, the Company and the existing Guarantors are authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture. 
 NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the New
Guarantors, the Company and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes as follows: 
 1. DEFINED TERMS. Defined terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. 
 2.
AGREEMENT TO GUARANTEE. The New Guarantors hereby agree, jointly and severally with all existing Guarantors (if any), to provide an unconditional guarantee on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in Article 11 of the Indenture and to be
bound by all other applicable provisions of the Indenture, including the provisions relating to the subordination of such guarantee set forth in Article 10 and Article 11, and the Notes and to perform all of the obligations and agreements of a
Guarantor under the Indenture. 
 3. NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. No past, present or future director, manager, officer, employee,
incorporator, stockholder or member of the Company, any parent entity of the Company or any Subsidiary, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Company or the Guarantors under the Notes, the Indenture, the Guarantees or for any
claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. The waiver
may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws.

Section 13.02 of the Indenture. 
 5. RATIFICATION OF INDENTURE; SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES PART OF INDENTURE. Except as expressly amended
hereby, the Indenture is in all respects ratified and confirmed and all the terms, conditions and provisions thereof shall remain in full force and effect. This Supplemental Indenture shall form a part of the Indenture for all purposes, and every
Holder of a Note heretofore or hereafter authenticated and delivered shall be bound hereby. 
 6. GOVERNING LAW. THE INDENTURE, THIS
SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE, THE NOTES AND THE NOTE GUARANTEES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 7. COUNTERPARTS. The parties may sign any number of copies of this Supplemental Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement. 
 8. EFFECT OF HEADINGS. The section headings herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof. 
 9. TRUSTEE MAKES NO REPRESENTATION. The Trustee makes no representation as to validity or sufficiency of this Supplemental Indenture.
