**FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS**

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains statements that are not historical facts but rather forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements include those that address activities, events or developments that Autoliv, Inc. ("Autoliv," the "Company" or "we") or its management believes or anticipates may occur in the future. All forward-looking statements are based upon our current expectations, various assumptions and/or data available from third parties. Our expectations and assumptions are expressed in good faith, and we believe there is a reasonable basis for them. However, there can be no assurance that such forward-looking statements will materialize or prove to be correct as forward-looking statements are inherently subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause actual future results, performance or achievements to differ materially from the future results, performance or achievements expressed in or implied by such forward-looking statements.

In some cases, you can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as "estimates," "expects," "anticipates," "projects," "plans," "intends," "believes," "may," "likely," "might," "would," "should," "could," or the negative of these terms and other comparable terminology, although not all forward-looking statements contain such words.

Because these forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, the outcome could differ materially from those set out in the forward-looking statements for a variety of reasons, including without limitation: general global and regional economic conditions, including the impact of inflation; changes in light vehicle production; fluctuation in vehicle production schedules for which the Company is a supplier; global supply chain disruptions, including port, transportation, and distribution delays or interruptions; supply chain disruptions and component shortages specific to the automotive industry or the Company; potential changes to beneficial free trade agreements and regulations, such as the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement; changes in geopolitical and other economic and political conditions or developments, including inflation, changes in trade policies, tariff regimes, and other developments in and by countries in which we do business that could materially impact supply chains, margins, access to capital, or overall business performance; political stability or geopolitical conflicts; changes in general industry or market conditions, including regional economic growth or decline; changes in and the successful execution of our capacity alignment, restructuring, cost reduction, and efficiency initiatives and the market reaction thereto; loss of business from increased competition; volatility or increases in raw material, fuel, and energy costs; changes in consumer and customer preferences for end products; loss of customers or sales; legislative or regulatory changes; customer bankruptcies, consolidations or restructuring or divestiture of customer brands; unfavorable fluctuations in currencies or interest rates among the various jurisdictions in which we operate; market acceptance of our new products; costs or difficulties related to the integration of any new or acquired businesses and technologies; continued uncertainty in pricing and other negotiations with customers, including inflation and tariff compensations; successful integration of acquisitions and operations of joint ventures; successful implementation of strategic partnerships and collaborations; our ability to be awarded new business; product liability, warranty and recall claims and investigations and other litigation, civil judgments or financial penalties and customer reactions thereto; higher expenses for our pension and other postretirement benefits, including higher funding needs for our pension plans; work stoppages or other labor issues; possible adverse results of pending or future litigation or infringement claims, and the availability of insurance with respect to such matters; our ability to protect our intellectual property rights; negative impacts of antitrust investigations or other governmental investigations and associated litigation relating to the conduct of our business; tax assessments or results of tax audits by governmental authorities and changes in our effective tax rate; dependence on key personnel; our ability to meet our sustainability targets, goals and commitments; dependence on and relationships with customers and suppliers; the conditions necessary to hit our financial targets; and other risks and uncertainties identified in Item 1A "Risk Factors" of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Item 1A "Risk Factors" and Item 7 "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the SEC on February 19, 2026.

For any forward-looking statements contained in this or any other document, we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and we assume no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements in light of new information or future events, except as required by law.

**NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CO** **NSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)**

**(Unless otherwise noted, all amounts are presented in millions of dollars, except for per share amounts)**

**March 31, 2026**

**1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION**

The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the prior year audited consolidated financial statements and all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the consolidated financial statements. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period or for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.

The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2025 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements.

The Company has one reportable segment, which includes Autoliv's airbag and seatbelt products and components.

Certain amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements and associated notes may not reconcile due to rounding. All percentages have been calculated using unrounded amounts. Certain amounts in prior periods may have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

Statements in this report that are not of historical fact are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties that could affect the actual results of the Company. A description of the important factors that could cause Autoliv's actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in this report may be found in this report and Autoliv's other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements, footnotes and definitions thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the SEC on February 19, 2026.

**2. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS**

Changes to U.S. GAAP are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") in the form of Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs") to the FASB's Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC").

**Adoption of new accounting standards**

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, *Interim Reporting (Topic 270), Narrow-Scope Improvements*, to provide clarity about the current requirements, rather than evaluate whether to expand or reduce interim disclosure requirements. The amendments in ASU 2025-11 result in a comprehensive list of interim disclosures that are required by GAAP. The amendments in ASU 2025-11 also include a disclosure principle that requires entities to disclose events since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. The amendments in ASU 2025-11 are effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments in ASU 2025-11 can be applied either (1) prospectively or (2) retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company early adopted ASU 2025-11 prospectively in the first quarter of 2026. The adoption of ASU 2025-11 did not have a significant impact on its interim disclosures.

**Accounting standards issued but not yet adopted**

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, *Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses*, to improve financial reporting by requiring additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to the financial statements at interim and annual reporting periods. The amendments in ASU 2024-03 do not change or remove current expense disclosure requirements. The amendments require that at each interim and annual reporting period an entity should disclose the amounts of (a) purchase of inventory, (b) employee compensation, (c) depreciation and (d) intangible asset amortization included in each relevant expense caption. The amendments in ASU 2024-03 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 1, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments in ASU 2024-03 should be applied either (1) prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of ASU 2024-03 or (2) retrospectively to any or all periods presented in the financial statements. The adoption of ASU 2024-03 is expected to result in incremental disclosures in the Company's financial statements. The Company will adopt the amendments in ASU 2024-03 prospectively upon the effective date.

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, *Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40), Targeted improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software*, to modernize the accounting for software costs that are accounted for under Subtopic 350-40. ASU 2025-06 removes all references to prescriptive and sequential software development stages throughout Subtopic 350-40. Therefore, an entity is required to start capitalizing software costs when both of the following

------

occur: 1) Management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and 2) It is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. The amendments in ASU 2025-06 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period. The amendments in ASU 2025-06 permits entities to use either 1) a prospective transition approach, 2) a modified transition approach, or 3) a retrospective transition approach. The Company is currently assessing the impact that ASU 2025-06 will have on its financial statements and expects to adopt the amendments in this update using the prospective transition approach. The Company expects that its capitalization of internal-use software costs will not change significantly under the amendments in ASU 2025-06.

**3. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS**

**Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis**

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, short-term debt and other current financial assets and liabilities approximate their fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.

The Company uses derivative financial instruments ("derivatives") as part of its debt management to mitigate the market risk that occurs from its exposure to changes in interest rates and foreign exchange rates. The Company does not enter into derivatives for trading or other speculative purposes. The Company's use of derivatives is in accordance with the strategies contained in the Company's overall financial policy. All derivatives are recognized in the consolidated financial statements at fair value. For certain derivatives, hedge accounting is not applied either because non-hedge accounting treatment creates the same accounting result or the hedge does not meet the hedge accounting requirements, although each hedge is entered into applying the same rationale concerning mitigating market risk that occurs from changes in interest rates and foreign exchange rates.

The degree of judgment utilized in measuring the fair value of the instruments generally correlates to the level of pricing observability. Pricing observability is impacted by several factors, including the type of asset or liability, whether the asset or liability has an established market and the characteristics specific to the transaction. Instruments with readily active quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices generally will have a higher degree of pricing observability and a lesser degree of judgment utilized in measuring fair value. Conversely, assets rarely traded or not quoted will generally have less, or no, pricing observability and a higher degree of judgment utilized in measuring fair value.

All the Company's derivatives are classified as Level 2 financial instruments in the fair value hierarchy. Level 2 pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The nature of these assets and liabilities includes items for which quoted prices are available but traded less frequently, and items that are fair valued using other financial instruments, the parameters of which can be directly observed.

The carrying value is the same as the fair value as these instruments are recognized in the consolidated financial statements at fair value. Although the Company is party to close-out netting agreements ("ISDA agreements") with all of its derivative counterparties, the fair values in the tables below and in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 have been presented on a gross basis. According to the ISDA agreements, transaction amounts payable to a counterparty on the same date and in the same currency can be netted. The amounts subject to netting agreements that the Company chose not to offset are presented below.

**Derivatives designated as hedging instruments**

There were no derivatives designated as hedging instruments as of March 31, 2026 or December 31, 2025 related to the Company's operations.

**Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments**

Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments relate to economic hedges and are marked to market with all amounts recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The derivatives not designated as hedging instruments outstanding as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were foreign exchange swaps.

For the three months periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the gains or losses recognized in other non-operating items, net were a loss of $6 million and a gain of $28 million, respectively, for derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments. The realized part of the gains or losses referred to above is reported under financing activities in the statement of cash flows.

For the three months periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the gains or losses recognized as interest expense were a loss of $1 million and a loss of $1 million, respectively.

<sup>5)</sup>Net amount after deducting for offsetting swaps under ISDA agreements is $12 million.

<sup>6)</sup>Net amount after deducting for offsetting swaps under ISDA agreements is $24 million.

**Fair Value of Debt**

The fair value of long-term debt is determined either from quoted market prices as provided by participants in the secondary market or for long-term debt without quoted market prices, estimated using a discounted cash flow method based on the Company's current borrowing rates for similar types of financing. The Company has determined that each of these fair value measurements of debt reside within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The fair value and carrying value of debt is summarized in the table below (dollars in millions).

<sup>1)</sup> Debt as reported in balance sheet.

**Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis**

In addition to assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company also has assets and liabilities in its balance sheet that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, including certain long-lived assets, including equity method investments, goodwill and other intangible assets, typically as it relates to impairment.

The Company has determined that the fair value measurements included in each of these assets and liabilities rely primarily on Company-specific inputs and the Company's assumptions about the use of the assets and settlements of liabilities, as observable inputs are not available. The Company has determined that each of these fair value measurements reside within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. To determine the fair value of long-lived assets, the Company utilizes the projected cash flows expected to be generated by the long-lived assets, then discounts the future cash flows over the expected life of the long-lived assets.

For the three months period ended March 31, 2026, the Company did not record any material impairment charges on its long-lived assets for its operations.

------

**4. INCOME TAXES**

The effective tax rate for the three months period ended March 31, 2026 was 29.9% compared to 28.0% for the three months period ended March 31, 2025. Discrete tax items, net for the three months period ended March 31, 2026 had an unfavorable impact of 2.3%. Discrete tax items, net for the three months period ended March 31, 2025 were not material.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various U.S. states, and non-U.S. jurisdictions. At any given time, the Company is undergoing tax audits in several tax jurisdictions covering multiple years. The Company is no longer subject to income tax examination by the U.S. federal income tax authorities for years prior to 2021. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to income tax examination by U.S. state or local tax authorities or by non-U.S. tax authorities for years before 2016.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company is not aware of any proposed income tax adjustments resulting from tax examinations that would have a material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. The conclusion of such audits could result in additional increases or decreases to unrecognized tax benefits in some future period or periods.

During the three months period ended March 31, 2026, the Company recorded a net increase of $2 million to income tax reserves for unrecognized tax benefits based on tax positions related to the current year, including accruing additional interest related to unrecognized tax benefits from prior years.

Of the total unrecognized tax benefits of $44 million recorded as of March 31, 2026, $5 million is classified as current tax payable within Other current liabilities and $39 million is classified as non-current tax payable within Other non-current liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

**5. INVENTORIES**

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost ("FIFO") and net realizable value. The components of inventories were as follows (dollars in millions):

| **Inventories** | **1030** | **1078** |
| Inventory valuation reserve | (83) | (86) |
| **Total inventories, net of reserve** | $**947** | $**992** |

---

**6. RESTRUCTURING**

As of March 31, 2026, the restructuring reserve balance of $73 million is mainly attributed to structural cost reduction program activities initiated in Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) in 2023. The main part of the remaining balance for the activities initiated in EMEA in 2023 is expected to be concluded in 2026.

Provisions for the three months period ended March 31, 2026 mainly related to restructuring activities in EMEA. Cash payments for the three months period ended March 31, 2026 mainly related to the restructuring activities in EMEA that were initiated in 2023.

The table below summarizes the change in the balance sheet position of the employee-related restructuring reserves (dollars in millions). The restructuring reserve balances are included within Accrued expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The changes in the employee-related reserves have been charged against Other income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Restructuring costs other than employee related costs are immaterial for all periods presented.

**7. PRODUCT-RELATED LIABILITIES**

The Company is exposed to product liability and warranty claims in the event that the Company's products fail to perform as represented and such failure results, or is alleged to result, in bodily injury, and/or property damage or other loss. The Company has reserves for product risks. Such reserves are related to product performance issues, including recalls, product liability, and warranty issues. For further explanation, see Note 8. Contingent Liabilities below.

For the three months period ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025, new provisions and cash payments mainly related to warranty related issues.

As of March 31, 2026, the reserve for product related liabilities consisted of warranty and recall related issues.

The table below summarizes the change in the balance sheet position of the product-related liabilities (dollars in millions). The reserve for product-related liabilities is included in accrued expenses and other non-current liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company's product-related liabilities as of March 31, 2026 are partly covered by insurance. Insurance receivables are included within other current assets and other non-current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had total insurance receivables of $15 million.

**8. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES**

**Legal Proceedings**

Various claims, lawsuits, and proceedings are pending or threatened against the Company and/or its subsidiaries, covering a range of matters that arise in the ordinary course of its business activities with respect to commercial, product liability, and other matters. Litigation is subject to many uncertainties, and the outcome of any litigation cannot be assured. After discussions with counsel, and with the exception of potential future losses resulting from the antitrust proceedings described below, it is the opinion of management that the various legal proceedings and investigations to which the Company currently is a party will not have a material adverse impact on the consolidated financial position of Autoliv, but the Company cannot provide assurance that Autoliv will not experience material litigation, product liability, or other losses in the future.

**ANTITRUST MATTERS**

Authorities in several jurisdictions have conducted broad, and in some cases, long-running investigations of suspected anti-competitive behavior among parts suppliers in the global automotive vehicle industry. These investigations included, but are not limited to, the products that the Company sells. In addition to concluded matters, authorities of other countries, with significant light vehicle manufacturing or sales may initiate similar investigations. As a result of the outcome of the European Commission investigation of anti-competitive behavior among suppliers of occupant safety systems that the Company resolved in 2019 (the "EC investigation"), the Company is subject to a subsequent civil dispute with a non-governmental third party stemming from the same facts and circumstances underlying the EC investigation. The Company is involved in civil litigation in Germany with respect to alleged anti-competitive behavior that occurred over a decade ago.

On October 31, 2024, BMW filed a complaint against the Company in Germany claiming damages of €63 million plus interest (for a total claim of approximately €95 million) related to the conduct at issue in the EC investigation (the "BMW Complaint"). BMW is one of two European OEMs for which the Company pled guilty in 2017 in relation to the EC investigation. The Company filed its statement of defense on June 27, 2025 and BMW responded in March 2026 and amended its complaint to reduce its claimed damages to €58 million plus interest (for a total claim of approximately €95 million). The Company has determined pursuant to ASC 450 that a loss is reasonably possible with respect to the BMW Complaint. However, the Company continues to evaluate this matter, no accrual has been made, and the estimated range of potential loss is between €0 and €95 million. The Company cannot predict the ultimate outcome of the BMW Complaint. This dispute could result in significant expenses as well as an unfavorable outcome that could have a material adverse impact on our customer relationships, business prospects, reputation, operating results, or cash flows, and our insurance would likely not mitigate such impact. The Company cannot predict the duration, scope, or ultimate outcome of any such disputes.

This dispute could result in significant expenses as well as an unfavorable outcome that could have a material adverse impact on our customer relationships, business prospects, reputation, operating results, cash flows or financial condition, and our insurance would likely not mitigate such impact. The Company cannot predict the duration, scope, or ultimate outcome of any such disputes.

**PRODUCT WARRANTY, RECALLS AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY**

Autoliv is exposed to various claims for damages and compensation if its products fail to perform as expected. Such claims can be made, and result in costs and other losses to the Company, even where the product is eventually found to have functioned properly. Where a product (actually or allegedly) fails to perform as expected or is defective, the Company may face warranty and recall claims. Where such (actual or alleged) failure or defect results, or is alleged to result, in bodily injury and/or property damage, the Company may also face product liability and other claims. There can be no assurance that the Company will not experience material warranty, recall or product (or other) liability claims or losses in the future, or that the Company will not incur significant costs to defend against such claims. The Company may be required to participate in a recall involving its products. Each vehicle manufacturer has its own practices regarding product recalls and other product liability actions relating to its suppliers. As suppliers become more integrally involved in the vehicle design process and assume more of the vehicle assembly functions, vehicle manufacturers are increasingly looking to their suppliers for contribution when faced with recalls and product liability claims. Government safety regulators may also play a role in warranty and recall practices. Recall decisions regarding the Company's products may require a significant amount of judgment by us, our customers and safety regulators and are influenced by a variety of factors. Once a recall has been made, the cost of a recall is also subject to a significant amount of judgment and discussions between the Company and its customers. A warranty, recall or product-liability claim brought against the Company in excess of its insurance may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business. Vehicle manufacturers are also increasingly requiring their outside suppliers to guarantee or warrant their products and bear the costs of repair and replacement of such products under new vehicle warranties. A vehicle manufacturer may attempt to hold the Company responsible for some, or all, of the repair or replacement costs of products when the product supplied did not perform as represented by us or expected by the customer in either a warranty or a recall situation. Accordingly, the future costs of warranty or recall claims by the customers may be material. However, the Company believes its established reserves are adequate. Autoliv's warranty reserves are based upon the Company's best estimates of amounts necessary to settle future and existing claims. The Company regularly evaluates the adequacy of these reserves and adjusts them when appropriate. However, the final amounts actually due related to these matters could differ materially from the Company's recorded estimates.

In addition, as vehicle manufacturers increasingly use global platforms and procedures, quality performance evaluations are also conducted on a global basis. Any one or more quality, warranty or other recall issue(s) (including those affecting few units and/or having a small financial impact) may cause a vehicle manufacturer to implement measures such as a temporary or prolonged suspension of new orders, which may have a material impact on the Company's results of operations.

The Company maintains a program of insurance, which may include commercial insurance, self-insurance, or a combination of both approaches, for potential recall and product liability claims in amounts and on terms that it believes are reasonable and prudent based on our prior claims experience. The Company's insurance policies generally include coverage of the costs of a recall, although costs related to replacement parts are generally not covered. In addition, a number of the agreements entered into by the Company, including the agreements related to the spin-off of Veoneer, require Autoliv to indemnify the other parties for certain claims. Autoliv cannot assure that the level of coverage will be sufficient to cover every possible claim that can arise in our businesses or with respect to other obligations, now or in the future, or that such coverage always will be available should we, now or in the future, wish to extend, increase or otherwise adjust our insurance.

As noted in Note 7 above, as of March 31, 2026, the Company has accrued $83 million for total product-related liabilities. The majority of the total product liability accrual as of March 31, 2026 relates to recalls, which are generally covered by insurance. Insurance receivables for such recall related liabilities total $15 million as of March 31, 2026.

<u>Product Liability:</u>

Autoliv and some of its subsidiaries have been named as one of several defendants in a consolidated class action lawsuit in a multi-district litigation (In Re: ARC Airbag Inflators Products Liability Litigation MDL, No. 3051) in the Northern District of Georgia. The plaintiffs in the multi-district litigation (the "ARC Inflator Class Action") brought claims for fraud, breach of warranty, and violations of consumer protection and trade practices stemming from ARC inflators included in airbag modules that Autoliv or its subsidiaries allegedly supplied after Autoliv acquired certain Delphi assets (the "Delphi Acquisition") in December 2009. The Company denies these allegations. Autoliv is not aware of any performance issues regarding ARC inflators included with its airbags at the directions of its customers that it shipped following the Delphi Acquisition. The proceedings remain ongoing. The Company has determined pursuant to ASC 450 that a loss is reasonably possible with respect to the ARC Inflator Class Action. However, the Company continues to evaluate this matter, no accrual has been made, and no estimated range of potential loss can be determined at this time. The Company cannot predict the ultimate outcome of the ARC Inflator Class Action.

On September 5, 2023, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration ("NHTSA") issued an initial decision to recall approximately 52 million frontal driver and passenger airbag inflators manufactured by ARC and Delphi Automotive Systems because NHTSA determined that the airbag inflators contain a safety defect resulting in field ruptures. Some of the ARC inflators included in the airbag modules that Autoliv or its subsidiaries supplied after the Delphi Acquisition were included in such initial decision. NHTSA has yet to release its final decision. If NHTSA's final decision results in a recall, it is anticipated that such decision will be challenged in US federal court. The Company has determined pursuant to ASC 450 that a loss is reasonably possible with respect to the NHTSA ARC recall. However, the Company continues to evaluate this matter, no accrual has been made, and no estimated range of potential loss can be determined at this time. The Company cannot predict the ultimate outcome of the NHTSA ARC recall.

<u>Specific Recalls:</u> 

In the second quarter of 2025, Stellantis initiated a recall of approximately 250,000 vehicles in the U.S. equipped with a certain model of the Company's side curtain airbag (the "Stellantis Recall"). The Company has determined pursuant to ASC 450 that a loss is reasonably possible with respect to the Stellantis Recall. The Company is cooperating with Stellantis and continues to evaluate this matter with Stellantis. In December 2025, Stellantis provided its calculations for the cost of the Stellantis Recall to the Company. In March 2026, Stellantis included an additional 178,000 vehicles subject to the recall. On April 16, 2026, Stellantis filed a lawsuit against a subsidiary of the Company with claims for the costs relating to the Stellantis Recall. The Company currently estimates a range of $0 to $203 million with respect to this potential loss, expects a substantial portion of a potential loss would be covered by insurance, and no accrual has been made. The ultimate amount of the potential loss to the Company cannot be estimated. However, the ultimate costs of a recall, could be significantly different than our current estimate. The main variables affecting the possible costs are the number of vehicles ultimately determined to be affected by the issue, the cost per vehicle associated with a recall, the determination of proportionate responsibility among the customer, the Company, and any relevant sub-suppliers, as well as the actual insurance recoveries. The Company's insurance policies generally cover the costs of a recall, although costs related to the replacement parts are not covered under its insurance policies. Another customer has contacted the Company to inquire about the details of these incidents of nonconformance and are investigating whether its vehicles may generate similar tests results. If this customer or others generate similar nonconformance test results, it is possible that there may be recalls of additional vehicles in future quarters.

In the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company was made aware of a potential recall by American Honda Motor Co. and the recall of approximately 449,000 vehicles relating to the malfunction of front seat belt buckles was announced on March 9, 2023 (the "Honda Buckle Recall"). The Company determined pursuant to ASC 450 that a loss with respect to the Honda Buckle Recall is probable and accrued an amount that is reflected in the total product liability accrual in the fourth quarter of 2020, increased the accrual in the fourth quarter of 2021, and reduced the accrual in the fourth quarter of 2023 based on vehicle repair cost data. Following the accrual increase in the third quarter of 2024, the amount by which the product liability accrual exceeds the product liability insurance receivable with respect to the Honda Buckle Recall is approximately $12 million and includes self-insurance retention costs and deductibles. The ultimate loss to the Company of the Honda Buckle Recall could be materially different from the amount the Company has accrued.

<u>Intellectual Property:</u> 

In its products, the Company utilizes technologies which may be subject to intellectual property rights of third parties. While the Company does seek to procure the necessary rights to utilize intellectual property rights associated with its products, it may fail to do so. Where the Company so fails, the Company may be exposed to material claims from the owners of such rights. Where the Company has sold products which infringe upon such rights, its customers may be entitled to be indemnified by the Company for the claims they suffer as a result thereof. Such claims could be material.

The table in Note 7 above summarizes the change in the balance sheet position of the product-related liabilities.

**EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW**

The first quarter turned out better than we had anticipated, with strong sales in March. Our operational performance exceeded our expectations, with solid productivity improvements, partly supported by reduced call-off volatility. Underlying profitability improved, with gross profit increasing by 10%, although adjusted operating income (Non-GAAP measure, see reconciliation table below) was slightly lower due to temporary lower R,D&E reimbursements and the one-time income in Q1 last year.

Our positive trend in Asia continued, with strong growth in India, South Korea and China. In China, we continued to grow faster than LVP, especially with the Chinese OEMs, outperforming by 40pp. In India, we grew sales organically (Non-GAAP measure, see reconciliation table below) by 38%, reflecting mainly the trend of increased safety content in vehicles in India, as well as the continued high level of LVP growth. We continue to expand our production capabilities in India, investing in additional inflator production capacity for future growth.

We are pleased that we in the quarter introduced our first airbag for motorcycles, as well as our first wearable airbag solution for motorcycle riders, building on our long term strategy of growing business outside our traditional core business.

The quarter was characterized by ongoing and new geopolitical challenges. At this point, it is difficult to fully assess the likely impacts, as the situation remains fluid. We continue to carefully monitor the developments while preparing for various scenarios, including different mitigation strategies.

The business environment is uncertain but our current best estimate for the remainder of the year is a re-iteration of our full year 2026 guidance of about unchanged organic sales (Non-GAAP measure) and an adjusted operating margin (Non-GAAP measure) of around 10.5-11%. This is based on the assumption that LVP will decline by around 1%.

Our balance sheet is healthy, with debt leverage (Non-GAAP measure, see reconciliation table below) of 1.3x, well below our target limit of 1.5x. Based on our guidance for sales and adjusted operating margin, we continue to expect strong cash flow for the year, which supports our ambitions to provide attractive shareholder returns, including to repurchase shares of $300-500 million in 2026.

**Financial highlights in the three months period ended March 31, 2026**

*Change figures below compare to the same period of the previous year, except when stated otherwise.*

• **$2,753** million net sales, **increase** of **6.8%** 

• **0.8%** organic sales growth (Non-GAAP measure, see reconciliation table below)

• **8.6%** operating margin, **8.9%** adjusted. operating margin (Non-GAAP measure, see reconciliation table below)

• **$1.88** diluted EPS, **12% decrease**

**Key business developments in the three months period ended March 31, 2026**

*Change figures below compare to the same period of the previous year, except when stated otherwise.*

• Net sales increased organically (Non-GAAP measure, see reconciliation table below) by 0.8%, which was 4.2pp higher than the global LVP decrease of 3.4% (S&P Global, April 2026) driven mainly by strong progress in Asia. Regional and customer LVP mix is estimated to have impacted sales positively by about 1.5pp, while tariff compensations added around 0.5pp. Our organic sales growth (Non-GAAP measure) outperformed LVP significantly in China (15pp) and Asia excl. China (6.8pp) and performed in line in EMEA and underperformed in Americas (4.5pp). Our strong performance in Asia excl. China was mainly due to India, where we outperformed by 28pp, driven by continued strong market growth in safety content per vehicle, while our China performance was mainly driven by further improved presence with Chinese OEMs.

• Profitability was strong. Supported by successful execution of cost reductions and positive foreign currency effects, gross profit increased by 10%. Operating income decreased by 6.7% and adjusted operating income (Non-GAAP measure, see reconciliation table below) decreased by 3.9%, impacted by adverse foreign currency translation effects and temporary lower R,D&E reimbursements as well as that Q1 2025 was positively impacted by one-time effects. Operating margin was 8.6% and adjusted operating margin (Non-GAAP measure, see reconciliation table below) was 8.9%. ROCE was 22.2% and adjusted ROCE (Non-GAAP measure, see reconciliation table below) was 22.9%.

• Operating cash flow was negative $76 million, mainly due to an increase in working capital due to strong sales in March, temporary effects expected to reverse later in the year and the high level of accounts payable at the end of 2025. Free operating cash flow (Non-GAAP measure, see reconciliation table below) thereby decreased to negative $159 million. The leverage ratio (Non-GAAP measure, see reconciliation table below) was unchanged compared to a year ago at 1.3x, below our target limit of 1.5x. In the quarter, a dividend of $0.87 per share was paid.

------

**Business and market condition update**

**Supply Chain**

Call-off volatility improved somewhat compared to both Q4 2025 and Q1 2025, although it still remains higher than pre-pandemic levels. Low customer demand visibility and changes to customer call-offs with short notice continued to have some negative impact on our production efficiency and profitability. We expect call-off volatility for the full year 2026 on average to be slightly improved compared to 2025 but still remain higher than pre-pandemic levels. However, the continued significant uncertainty in the geopolitical environment and future changes in tariffs and trade restrictions may lead to more negative call-off volatility.

**Raw material inflation, geopolitical risks and tariffs**

Raw material price changes had only a small negative impact on our profitability in the first quarter, with a gross impact of around $5 million. For the full year 2026, our current assessment is for around $90 million gross impact from higher raw material prices. We expect to be able to mitigate a majority of this headwind, mainly through internal cost reductions, material mix improvements and commercial negotiations with customers and suppliers. Given the continued uncertainty in the geopolitical environment, the effects of tariffs and trade restrictions may lead to a more adverse inflation environment. We continue to execute on productivity and cost reduction initiatives to offset these cost pressures.

The effects of the new tariffs imposed in 2025 impacted our profitability negatively in the first quarter 2026. Although we achieved customer compensations for more than 70% of tariff costs, the net effect on operating margin was around 40bps negative, including the dilution effect. While it is our ambition and expectation to continue passing tariff costs on to our customers, there is significant uncertainty as future recovery levels may vary. For the full year 2026, we estimate the tariff-related dilution on operating margin to be similar to the around 20 bps that it was for full year 2025.

We currently do not expect any material impact from the U.S. Supreme Court's ruling that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act did not authorize the imposition of the tariffs in 2025, as our gross exposure is limited to around $25 million and the net exposure is well below $10 million.

Ongoing geopolitical developments, including the hostilities in and around the Persian Gulf, introduce additional uncertainty into the global economic environment. These conditions may affect supply chains, commodity prices, customer demand, and broader market stability. As a result, our current financial guidance reflects the best information available today but may be subject to change should these geopolitical dynamics materially impact our operations or the markets in which we operate.

We continue to closely monitor both geopolitical developments and the tariff policy environment in order to be agile to adjust our commercial and operational responses to any such developments.

**RESULTS OF OPERATIONS**

**Overview**

The following table shows some of the key ratios management uses internally to analyze the Company's current and future financial performance and core operations as well as to identify trends in the Company's financial conditions and results of operations. The Company has provided this information to investors to assist in meaningful comparisons of past and present operating results and to assist in highlighting the results of ongoing core operations. These ratios are more fully explained below and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

The Company's management uses the Return on capital employed (ROCE) and Return on total equity (ROE) measures for purposes of comparing its financial performance with the financial performance of other companies in the industry and providing useful information regarding the factors and trends affecting the Company's business. As used by the Company, ROCE is annualized operating income and income from equity method investments relative to average capital employed. The Company believes ROCE is a useful indicator of long-term performance both absolute and relative to the Company's peers as it allows for a comparison of the profitability of the Company's capital employed in its business relative to that of its peers.

ROE is the ratio of annualized income (loss) relative to average total equity for the periods presented. The Company's management believes that ROE is a useful indicator of how well management creates value for its shareholders through its operating activities and its capital management.

<sup>1)</sup>Effects from currency translations.

<sup>3)</sup>Non-U.S. GAAP measure.

**Sales by product - Airbags, Steering Wheels and Other**

Sales for Airbags, Steering Wheels and Other grew organically (Non-U.S. GAAP measure, see reconciliation table above) by 0.7% in the quarter. The largest contributors to the increase were center airbags, driver airbags and side airbags, partly offset by declines for passenger airbags and inflatable curtains.

**Sales by product - Seatbelts and Other**

Sales for Seatbelt Products and Other grew organically (Non-U.S. GAAP measure, see reconciliation table above) by 1.1% in the quarter. Sales increased organically in Asia excluding China, EMEA and China while sales declined in Americas.

**Sales by region**

Our global organic sales (Non-U.S. GAAP measure, see reconciliation table above) increased by 0.8% compared to the global LVP decrease of 3.4% (according to S&P Global, April 2026). The relative performance was positively impacted by product launches but also by positive effects from the regional and model LVP mix development, which we estimate contributed to about 1.5pp outperformance and by tariff compensations of around 0.5pp. Our organic sales growth (Non-U.S. GAAP measure) outperformed LVP growth by 15pp in China and by 6.8pp in Asia excluding China. We performed in line with LVP in EMEA and underperformed by 4.5pp in Americas, impacted mainly by negative mix due to a high LVP growth in low content South America and a lower content on some replacement models.

LVP in China declined substantially with global OEMs declining by 8.5% and Chinese OEMs declining by 11%. Our sales to domestic OEMs increased by around 30% while our sales to global OEMs decreased by around 10%. We expect continued strong sales growth in China in 2026, driven mainly by our performance with domestic OEMs. Our strong sales growth in Asia excluding China was mainly due to 38% organic sales growth (Non-U.S. GAAP measure, see reconciliation table above) in India, reflecting LVP growth but mainly the trend of increased safety content in vehicles in India.

<sup>2)</sup>Net of treasury shares.

**First quarter of 2026 financial development** 

**Gross profit** increased by $48 million and gross margin increased by 0.6pp compared to the prior year. The drivers behind the gross profit improvement were mainly positive foreign currency effects, improved operational efficiency with lower costs for labor as well as positive effects from higher sales. This was partly offset by increased tariff costs, net.

**S,G&A** costs increased by $16 million compared to the prior year, mainly due to $10 million in negative foreign currency translation effects and $5 million in higher costs for personnel driven by wage inflation and a non-recurring cost of $4 million. S,G&A costs in relation to sales increased from 5.6% to 5.8%.

**R,D&E, net**, costs increased by $25 million compared to the prior year, mainly due to $11 million in lower engineering income related to timing effects, $5 million in higher personnel costs due to wage inflation and $4 million in negative FX translation effects. R,D&E, net, in relation to sales increased from 3.7% to 4.3%.

**Other income (expense), net**, was negative $9 million, compared to positive $15 million in the same period last year. The positive $15 million in 2025 related mainly to recycled accumulated currency translation differences related to the divestment of our idled operations in Russia while the negative $9 million in 2026 related mainly to restructuring costs in EMEA.

**Operating income** decreased by $17 million compared to the prior year, due to the higher costs for R,D&E, net, Other income (expense) and S,G&A, partly offset by higher gross profit as outlined above.

**Adjusted operating income** (Non-U.S. GAAP measure, see reconciliation table below) decreased by $10 million compared to the prior year, due to the higher costs for R,D&E, net, S,G&A and Other income (expense), partly offset by higher gross profit as outlined above.

**Financial and non-operating items, net**, was negative $35 million compared to negative $22 million a year earlier. The cost increase comes from $12 million in higher costs for non-operating items mainly related to restructuring costs in Americas.

**Income before taxes** decreased by $30 million compared to the prior year, mainly due to the lower operating income and higher costs for financial and non-operating items, net.

**Tax rate** was 29.9% compared to 28.0% the prior year. Discrete tax items, net, had an unfavorable impact of 2.3pp in the first quarter 2026, while discrete tax items, net were not material in the corresponding quarter last year.

**Earnings per share, diluted** decreased by $0.26 compared to the prior year. The main drivers were $0.16 from lower operating income, $0.12 from financial and non-operating items, $0.05 from taxes partly offset by $0.07 from lower number of outstanding shares, diluted.

**LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES**

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material current or future effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company's future contractual obligations have not changed materially from the amounts reported in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the SEC on February 19, 2026.

**First quarter of 2026 development** 

**Changes in operating working capital** impacted operating cash flow by $349 million negative compared to an impact of $179 million negative in the prior year. The $349 million increase in operating working capital mainly comes from $175 million increase in receivables and $134 million decrease in accounts payables. The increase in operating working capital is mainly related to high level of sales in March 2026, other temporary effects that are expected to reverse later in the year and the high level of accounts payable at the end of December 2025.

**Operating cash flow** decreased by $153 million to $(76) million compared to the prior year, mainly because of the increase in operating working capital outlined above and a lower net income, partly offset by higher depreciation and other non-cash adjustments.

**Capital expenditure, net**, decreased by $10 million compared to the prior year. The level of capital expenditure, net, in relation to sales declined to 3.0% versus 3.6% a year earlier. The lower level of capital expenditure, net is mainly related to the lower activity level of footprint optimization and less capacity expansion.

**Free operating cash flow** (Non-U.S. GAAP measure, see reconciliation table below) was negative $159 million compared to negative $16 million in the prior year. The decrease was due to the lower operating cash flow partly offset by the lower capital expenditure, net, as outlined above.

**Cash conversion** (Non-U.S. GAAP measure, see reconciliation table below) defined as free operating cash flow (Non-U.S. GAAP measure) in relation to net income, was n/a in the quarter compared to n/a a year earlier as free operating cash flow was negative both quarters.

**Net debt** (Non-U.S. GAAP measure, see reconciliation table below) was $1,773 million as of March 31, 2026, which was $14 million lower than a year earlier.

**Total equity** as of March 31, 2026, increased by $283 million compared to March 31, 2025. This was mainly due to net income of $710 million and $103 million in positive currency translation effects, partly offset by $304 million in share repurchases, including taxes, and $249 million in dividend payments.

**Leverage ratio** (Non-U.S. GAAP measure, see reconciliation table below): On March 31, 2026, the Company had a leverage ratio of 1.3x compared to 1.3x on March 31, 2025, as the 12 months trailing adjusted EBITDA (Non-U.S. GAAP measure, see reconciliation table below) increased by $74 million while net debt (Non-U.S. GAAP measure) per the policy was unchanged. Our target is to have a leverage ratio not higher than 1.5x.

**NON-U.S. GAAP MEASURES**

The Company believes that comparability between periods is improved through the exclusion of certain items. To assist investors in understanding the operating performance of Autoliv's business, it is useful to consider certain U.S. GAAP measures exclusive of these items.

The following tables reconciles Income before income taxes, Net income attributable to controlling interest and Capital employed, which are inputs utilized to calculate Return On Capital Employed ("ROCE"), adjusted ROCE, Return On Total Equity ("ROE"), and adjusted ROE. The Company believes this presentation may be useful to investors and industry analysts who utilize these adjusted non-U.S. GAAP measures in their ROCE and ROE calculations to exclude certain items for comparison purposes across periods. Autoliv's management uses the ROCE, adjusted ROCE, ROE and adjusted ROE measures for purposes of comparing its financial performance with the financial performance of other companies in the industry and providing useful information regarding the factors and trends affecting the Company's business.

As used by the Company, ROCE is annualized operating income and income from equity method investments, relative to average capital employed. Adjusted ROCE is annualized operating income and income from equity method investments, relative to average capital employed as adjusted to exclude certain non-recurring items. See definitions of "annualized operating income" and "average capital employed" in footnote to the tables below. The Company believes ROCE and adjusted ROCE are useful indicators of long-term performance both absolute and relative to the Company's peers as it allows for a comparison of the profitability of the Company's capital employed in its business relative to that of its peers.

------

ROE is the ratio of annualized income (loss) relative to average total equity for the periods presented. See definitions of "annualized income" "and "average total equity" in footnote to the tables below. Adjusted ROE is annualized income (loss) relative to average total equity for the periods presented as adjusted to exclude certain non-recurring items. The Company's management believes that ROE and adjusted ROE are useful indicators of how well management creates value for its shareholders through its operating activities and its capital management.

Accordingly, the tables below reconcile from U.S. GAAP to the equivalent non-U.S. GAAP measure.

Autoliv from time to time enters into "debt-related derivatives" (DRDs) as a part of its debt management and as part of efficiently managing the Company's overall cost of funds. Creditors and credit rating agencies use net debt adjusted for DRDs in their analyses of the Company's debt, therefore we provide this non-U.S. GAAP measure. DRDs are fair value adjustments to the carrying value of the underlying debt. Also included in the DRDs is the unamortized fair value adjustment related to a discontinued fair value hedge that will be amortized over the remaining life of the debt. By adjusting for DRDs, the total financial liability of net debt is disclosed without grossing debt up with currency or interest fair values.

The non-U.S. GAAP measure "Net debt" is also used in the non-U.S. GAAP measure "Leverage ratio". Management uses the non-U.S. GAAP measure "Leverage Ratio" to analyze the amount of debt the Company can incur under its debt policy. Management believes that this policy also provides guidance to credit and equity investors regarding the extent to which the Company would be prepared to leverage its operations. The Company's long-term target for the leverage ratio (sum of net debt plus pension liabilities divided by EBITDA) is 1.0x with the aim to operate within the range of 0.5x to 1.5x. For details and calculation of leverage ratio, refer to the table below.

Management uses the non-U.S. GAAP measure "free operating cash flow" to analyze the amount of cash flow being generated by the Company's operations after capital expenditure, net. This measure indicates the Company's cash flow generation level that enables strategic value creation options such as dividends or acquisitions. For details on the calculation of free operating cash flow, see the table below. Management uses the non-U.S. GAAP measure "cash conversion" to analyze the proportion of net income that is converted into free operating cash flow. The measure is a tool to evaluate how efficiently the Company utilizes its resources. For details on cash conversion, see the table below.

As of March 31, 2026, total headcount (Full Time Equivalent) decreased by around 1,900, or 2.9%, compared to a year earlier. The indirect workforce increased by around 300, or 1.5%, mainly reflecting a change in headcount reporting classification, moving around 300 people from direct to indirect. The direct workforce decreased by approximately 2,100, or 4.4%. The decrease was supported by an improvement in customer call-off accuracy which enabled us to accelerate operating efficiency improvements and also reflecting the reclassification mentioned above.

Compared to December 31, 2025, total headcount (Full Time Equivalent) decreased by around 200, or 0.4%. Indirect headcount increased by around 300, while direct headcount decreased by approximately 600 impacted by the reclassification mentioned above.

The Pricing Supplement may include a legend entitled "MiFID II Product Governance" which will outline the target market assessment in respect of the Notes and which channels for distribution of the Notes are appropriate. Any person subsequently offering, selling or recommending the Notes (a "**distributor**") should take into consideration the target market assessment; however, a distributor subject to MiFID II is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the Notes (by either adopting or refining the target market assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels.

A determination will be made in relation to each issue about whether, for the purpose of the MiFID Product Governance rules under EU Delegated Directive 2017/593 (the "**MiFID Product Governance Rules**"), any Dealer subscribing for any Notes is a manufacturer in respect of such Notes, but otherwise neither the Arranger nor the Dealers nor any of their respective affiliates will be a manufacturer for the purpose of the MiFID Product Governance Rules.

A determination will be made in relation to each issue about whether, for the purpose of the UK MiFIR Product Governance Rules, any Dealer subscribing for any Notes is a manufacturer in respect of such Notes, but otherwise neither the Arranger nor the Dealers nor any of their respective affiliates will be a manufacturer for the purpose of the UK MiFIR Product Governance Rules.

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – iii – Hogan Lovells

If the Pricing Supplement in respect of any Tranche of Notes includes a legend entitled "Prohibition of Sales to EEA Retail Investors", the Notes are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the EEA. For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97 (the "**Insurance Distribution Directive**"), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II. Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended or superseded, the "**PRIIPs Regulation**") for offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.

Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 as it forms part of domestic law of the UK by virtue of the EUWA (the "**UK PRIIPs Regulation**") for offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the UK has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the UK may be unlawful under the UK PRIIPs Regulation.

The Issuer and the Guarantor have confirmed to the Arranger and the Dealers that this Base Listing Particulars contains all material information with respect to the Issuer, the Guarantor and the Notes (including all information which, according to the particular nature of the Issuer, the Guarantor and of the Notes, is necessary to enable investors to make an informed assessment of the assets and liabilities, financial position, profits and losses and prospects of the Issuer and the Guarantor and of the rights attaching to the Notes), that the information contained or incorporated in this Base Listing Particulars is true and accurate in all material respects and is not misleading, that the opinions and intentions expressed in this Base Listing Particulars are honestly held and that there are no other facts the omission of which would make this Base Listing Particulars or any of such information or the expression of any such opinions or intentions misleading.

None of the Arranger nor the Dealers nor any of their respective affiliates accepts any responsibility for any environmental, sustainability or social assessment of any Notes issued as Sustainability Bonds or for the assessment of the Framework (as defined in *"Use of Proceeds"*). None of the Arranger nor the Dealers nor any of their respective affiliates are responsible for the use or allocation of proceeds (or amounts equal thereto) for any Notes issued as Sustainability Bonds, nor the impact or monitoring of such use of proceeds (or amounts equal thereto), including without limitation in connection with any Eligible Projects (as defined in *"Use of Proceeds"*).

Neither the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Arranger nor any Dealers nor any of their respective affiliates makes any representation or gives any assurance as to the suitability of the Framework and none of the Arranger nor the Dealers nor any of their respective affiliates makes any representation or gives any assurance as to the content of the Framework or the Second-Party Opinion.

In connection with the issue of any Notes issued as Sustainability Bonds under the Programme, the Issuer has requested a provider of second-party opinions to issue a Second-Party Opinion (see Risk Factor headed "*Notes issued as Sustainability Bonds under the Programme may not be a suitable investment for investors seeking to invest in green or other sustainable investments"*).

and should not be relied upon in connection with making any investment decision with respect to any Notes to be issued under the Programme. In addition, no assurance or representation is given by the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Arranger, any Dealer or any of their respective affiliates or any other person to investors as to the suitability, content or reliability for any purpose whatsoever of any opinion, report or certification of any third party in connection with the offering of any Notes issued as Sustainability Bonds under the Programme nor is any such opinion or certification a recommendation by the Issuer, the Arranger or any Dealer or any other person to buy, sell or hold any such Notes issued as Sustainability Bonds.

**RISK FACTORS**

*Each of the Issuer and the Guarantor believe that the following factors may affect its ability to fulfil its obligations under the Notes. All of these factors are contingencies which may or may not occur and neither the Issuer nor the Guarantor is in a position to express a view on the likelihood of any such contingency occurring.*

*Factors which the Issuer and the Guarantor believe to be material for the purpose of assessing the market risks associated with the Notes are also described below.*

*Each of the Issuer and the Guarantor believe that the factors described below represent the principal risks inherent in investing in the Notes, but the inability of the Issuer and/or Guarantor to pay interest, principal or other amounts on or in connection with the Notes may occur for other reasons which may not be considered significant risks by the Issuer or Guarantor based on information currently available to them or which they may not currently be able to anticipate. Prospective investors should also read the detailed information set out elsewhere in this Base Listing Particulars and reach their own views prior to making any investment decision.*

**Risks related to the Group's industry**

***The cyclical nature of automotive sales and production can adversely affect the Group's business, operating results and financial condition. The Group's business is directly related to Light Vehicle Production ("LVP") (in the global market and by the Group's customers, and automotive sales and LVP are the most important drivers for the Group's sales*** 

Automotive sales and production are highly cyclical and can be affected by general or regional economic or industry conditions, the level of consumer demand, recalls and other safety issues, labour relations issues, technological changes, fuel prices and availability, vehicle safety regulations and other regulatory requirements, governmental initiatives, trade agreements, political volatility (especially in energy producing countries and growth markets), changes in interest rate levels and credit availability and other factors. Some regions around the world may at various times be more particularly impacted by these factors than other regions. Economic declines that result in a significant reduction in automotive sales and production by the Group's customers have in the past had, and may in the future have, a material adverse effect on the Group's business, operating results, and financial condition.

The Group's sales are also affected by inventory levels of the Group's customers. Customers may choose to either increase or reduce inventory levels at any time, and new inventory levels may not align with trends. These fluctuations may exacerbate variability to customer call-offs, the Group's production schedules, and order intake and potentially impacting the Group's revenues and financial condition. Uncertainty regarding inventory levels may be further impacted by consumer financing programmes initiated or terminated by the Group's customers or governments, as such changes can influence the timing of sales.

Changes in automotive sales and LVP and/or customers' inventory levels will have an impact on the Group's financial targets, earnings guidance, and estimates. In addition, the Group bases its growth projections in part on business awards, or order intake, made by its customers. However, actual production orders from the Group's customers may not approximate the awarded business or the Group's estimated order intake. Any significant reduction in automotive sales and/or LVP by the Group's customers, whether due to general economic conditions or any other factors relevant to sales or LVP, could have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, operating results, and financial condition.

***Growth rates in safety content per vehicle ("CPV"), which can be impacted by changes in consumer trends, political decisions, and safety regulations could affect the Group's results in the future***

The Group estimates that the average global content of passive safety systems per light vehicle in 2025 was close to US$270. Vehicles produced in different markets may have various passive safety content values. For example, in high-income markets, light vehicles have an average passive safety content value of approximately US$350 per vehicle, whereas in growth markets such as China and India the average passive safety content value is approximately

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 5 – Hogan Lovells

------

US$210 and US$140 per vehicle, respectively. Due to the concentration of the majority of the growth in global LVP over time in growth markets the operating results may be impacted if the passive safety CPV remains low and if the penetration of more advanced automotive safety systems does not increase in these regions. As passive safety CPV is also an indicator of the Group's sales development, should these trends continue, the average value of passive safety systems per vehicle could decline.

***The Group operates in a highly competitive market***

The market for passive safety systems is highly competitive, and the Group faces competition from a number of other companies that produce and sell similar products. Among other factors, the Group's products compete on the basis of price, quality, manufacturing and distribution capability, design and performance, technological innovation, delivery and service. Some of the Group's competitors are subsidiaries (or divisions, units or similar) of larger companies with greater financial and other resources than the Group. Some of the Group's competitors may also have "preferred status" as a result of special relationships or ownership interests with certain customers. The Group's ability to compete successfully depends, in large part, on its success in continuing to innovate and manufacture products that have commercial success with customers and end-consumers, differentiating the Group's products from those of its competitors, continuing to deliver quality products in the time frames required by the Group's customers, and maintaining best-cost production.

The Group continues to invest in technology and innovation, which its management believes is critical to the Group's long-term growth. The Group's ability to maintain and improve existing products, while successfully developing and introducing distinctive new and enhanced products that anticipate changing customer and consumer preferences and capitalise upon emerging technologies will be a significant factor in the Group's ability to remain competitive. The Group may not be able to effectively implement new technology-driven products and services or be successful in marketing such products and services. In addition, implementing certain new technologies, such as those related to artificial intelligence, automation and algorithms, may have unintended consequences due to any limitations or failure to use them effectively. If the Group is unsuccessful or is less successful than its competitors in predicting the course of market development, developing innovative products, processes, and/or use of materials or adapting to new technologies or evolving regulatory, industry or customer requirements, the Group may be placed at a competitive disadvantage. Given the competitive nature of the Group's business, the amount of business the Group is awarded relative to its peers may decrease over time, and the past order intake is not an indicator of future levels or order intake. Additionally, Original Equipment Manufacturers ("**OEMs**") rigorously evaluate their products and the Group's performance against competitors on the basis of quality, reliability, cost-effectiveness, and the overall competitive landscape. If any OEM customer determines that using a competitor's product would yield better financial results or would help maintain supply chain resilience, it may result in loss in business and could affect the Group's ability to be competitive and may decrease its current market share. The inability to compete successfully could have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, operating results and financial condition.

***The discontinuation, lack of commercial success, or loss of business with respect to a particular vehicle model for which the Group is a significant supplier could reduce the Group's sales and harm the Group's business***

A number of the Group's customer contracts generally require the Group to supply a customer's annual requirements for a particular vehicle model and assembly facilities, rather than to manufacture a specific quantity of products. Such contracts range from one year to the life of the model, which is generally four to seven years. These contracts are often subject to renegotiation, sometimes as frequently as annually, which may affect product pricing, and generally may be terminated by the Group's customers at any time. Therefore, the discontinuation of, the loss of business with respect to, or a lack of commercial success of a particular vehicle model or brand for which the Group is a significant supplier could reduce the Group's sales and harm the Group's business, operating results, cash flows and financial condition.

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 6 – Hogan Lovells

------

***The Group continues to expand its product offerings beyond light passenger vehicles to include other mobility safety solutions. If the Group is not successful in expanding its product offerings, or if it takes longer or costs more than expected, it could harm the Group's business*** 

The Group continues to expand its product offerings to focus on mobility safety solutions. Because mobility safety product offerings are still in the development stages, it is difficult for the Group to anticipate the level of sales they may generate. The expansion of the Group's product offering will require the Group to invest time and resources to develop innovative products, such as wearables and two-wheeler passive safety products, that keep pace with continuing changes in the industry standards and to reach new customers who have rapidly changing preferences. the Group's product offerings might not receive customer acceptance if customer preferences shift to other products, and the Group's future success depends in part on its ability to anticipate and respond to these changes. If the Group is not successful in expanding its product offerings or if it takes longer or costs more than expected, it could negatively impact the Group's financial operating results, financial condition, competitive position, and future business prospects.

**Risks related to the Group's business**

***The Issuer is a holding company and it is wholly dependent on distributions received from its subsidiaries (including from the Guarantor)***

The Issuer, as a holding company, does not conduct any business other than through its subsidiaries and is dependent on dividends or distributions from its subsidiaries or order to provide the funds necessary to meet its debts and other contractual obligations. The Issuer would therefore be dependent upon receipt of funds from its subsidiaries, including from the Guarantor, in order to fulfil its obligations under the Notes. The obligations of the Issuer under the Notes are therefore structurally subordinated to any liabilities of the Issuer's subsidiaries; other than, in the case of any senior unsecured liabilities of the Guarantor which, by virtue of the Guarantee provided by the Guarantor, would rank equally with Guarantor's payment obligations in respect of the Notes.

All risk factors described below as being applicable to the Group, unless specifically stated otherwise, apply equally to the business of the Issuer and to that of the Guarantor.

***The Group may incur material losses and costs as a result of product liability, warranty, and recall claims that may be brought against the Group or the Group's customers***

The Group faces risks related to product liability claims, warranty claims, and recalls if any of the Group's products are, or are alleged to be, defective, fail to perform as expected, or result, or are alleged to result, in bodily injury and/or property damage. The Group may not be able to anticipate all potential performance or reliability issues that could arise after the Group's products are released to the market. Additionally, increasing regulations and reporting requirements regarding potentially defective products, particularly in the U.S., may increase the possibility that the Group becomes involved in additional product liability or recall investigations or claims. See the risk factor headed –"*Risks Related to Government Regulations and Taxes – The Groups business may be adversely affected by changes in automotive safety regulations or concerns that drive further regulation of the automobile safety market*".

Although the Group currently carries product liability and product recall insurance in excess of the Group's self-insured amounts, there can be no assurance that such insurance will provide adequate coverage against potential claims, that such insurance will be available or continue to be available in the appropriate markets or that the Group will be able to obtain such insurance on acceptable terms in the future. The cost of this insurance has risen in recent years and the Group's self-insured amounts have increased as well. Although the Group has invested and will continue to invest in the Group's engineering, design, and quality infrastructure, the Group cannot give any assurance that its products will be free suffer from defects or other deficiencies or that the Group will not experience material warranty claims or product recalls. In the future, the Group could incur material warranty or product liability losses and significant costs to process and defend these claims.

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 7 – Hogan Lovells

------

A successful claim brought against the Group in excess of available insurance coverage, if any, or a requirement to participate in any product recall, could have a material adverse effect on the Group's operating results, cash flows, and financial condition. Future recalls could result in costs not covered by insurance in excess of the Group's self-insurance amounts, additional government inquiries, litigation, reputational harm, and diversion of management's attention. The main variables affecting recall costs include: the number of vehicles ultimately determined to be affected, the cost per vehicle associated with the recall, the determination of proportionate responsibility among the customer, the Group, and any relevant sub-suppliers, and actual insurance recoveries. Each vehicle manufacturer has its own practices regarding product recalls and other product liability actions relating to its suppliers, and the performance and remedial requirements vary between jurisdictions. Due to recall activity in the automotive industry over the past decade, some vehicle manufacturers have become increasingly sensitive to recall risks. Government regulators have also become more focused on potential recall risks and recall rates, as demonstrated by the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's ("**NHTSA**") investigation of the ARC inflators. If NHTSA proceeds with any recalls of ARC inflators, such a recall could have a material impact on the Group's business, operating results, and financial condition. As suppliers become more integrally involved in the vehicle design process and assume more of the vehicle assembly functions, vehicle manufacturers are increasingly looking to their suppliers for contribution when faced with recalls and product liability claims. Product recalls in the Group's industry, even when they do not involve the Group's products, can harm the reputations of the Group's customers, competitors, and the Group, particularly if those recalls cause consumers to question the safety or reliability of products similar to the Groups'.

In addition, with global platforms and procedures, vehicle manufacturers are increasingly evaluating the Group's quality performance on a global basis; any one or more quality, warranty or other recall issue(s) (including issues affecting few units and/or having a small financial impact) may cause a vehicle manufacturer to implement measures that may have a severe impact on the Group's operations, such as a global, temporary or prolonged suspension of new orders. In addition, as the Group's products more frequently use global designs and are based on or utilise the same or similar parts, components or solutions, there is a risk that the number of vehicles affected globally by a failure or defect will increase significantly with a corresponding increase in the Group's costs. A warranty, recall or product liability claim brought against the Group in excess of available insurance may have a material adverse effect on the Group's business. Vehicle manufacturers are also increasingly requiring their suppliers to guarantee or warrant their products and bear repair and replacement costs of such products under new vehicle warranties. A vehicle manufacturer may attempt to hold the Group responsible for some or the entire repair or replacement costs of defective products under new vehicle warranties, when the product supplied did not perform as represented. Accordingly, future warranty claims by the Group's customers may be material. However, the final amounts determined to be due could differ materially from the Group's recorded warranty estimates and the Group's business, operating results, cash flows, and financial condition may be materially impacted as a result.

In addition, as the Group adopts new technologies, it faces an inherent risk of exposure to the claims of others that the Group has allegedly violated their intellectual property rights. The Group cannot give assurance that it will not experience any material warranty, product liability or intellectual property claim losses in the future or that the Group will not incur significant costs to defend against such claims. See the risk factor headed "*Risks Related to Intellectual Property - If the Group's patents are declared invalid or the Group's technology infringes on the proprietary rights of others, the Group's ability to compete may be impaired*"*.*

***Escalating pricing pressures from the Group's customers may adversely affect the Group's business***

The automotive industry continues to experience aggressive pricing pressure from customers. This trend is partly attributable to the major automobile manufacturers' strong purchasing power. As with other automotive component manufacturers, the Group is often expected to quote fixed prices or is forced to accept prices with annual price reduction commitments for long-term sales arrangements or discounted reimbursements for engineering work. Price reductions have impacted the Group's sales and profit margins and are expected to continue to do so in the future. While the Group in the past received inflation related pricing concessions from most of its customers, there is no

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 8 – Hogan Lovells

------

guarantee that this will occur in the future. The Group's future profitability will depend upon, among other things, the Group's ability to continuously reduce the Group's cost per unit and maintain the Group's cost structure, enabling the Group to remain cost-competitive.

The Group's profitability is also influenced by its success in designing and marketing technological improvements in automotive safety systems, which helps the Group offset price reductions by its customers. If the Group is unable to offset continued price reductions through improved operating efficiencies and reduced expenditures, these price reductions may have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, operating results, cash flows, and financial condition.

***The Group could experience disruption in its supply or delivery chain, which could cause one or more of the Group's customers to halt or delay production***

The Group, as with other component manufactures in the automotive industry, ship the Group's products to customer vehicle assembly facilities throughout the world on a "just-in-time" basis for the Group's customers to maintain low inventory levels. The Group's suppliers (external suppliers as well as the Group's own production sites) use a similar method in providing raw materials to the Group. However, this "just-in-time" method makes the logistics supply chain in the Group's industry very complex and vulnerable to disruption.

Disruptions in the Group's supply chain may result for many reasons, including closures of one of the Group's own or one of the Group's suppliers' facilities or critical manufacturing lines due to strikes or other labour disputes, mechanical failures, electrical outages, fires, explosions, critical pollution levels, critical health and safety and other working conditions issues (including epidemics and pandemics), natural disasters, war, geopolitical and economic instability, political upheaval, as well as logistical complications due to labour disruptions, weather or natural disasters, acts of terrorism or violence, mechanical failures, cybersecurity events, and legislation or regulation regarding the transport of hazardous goods. Inflation and pricing pressures have also negatively impacted companies in the Group's supply chain. Additionally, the Group may experience disruptions if there are newly imposed trade restrictions or delays in customs processing, including if the Group is unable to obtain government authorisation to export or import certain materials, including materials that may be viewed as dangerous such as the propellant used for the Group's inflators. See the risk factor headed *"Risks Related to Internal Operations – Tariffs, sanctions, and geopolitical conflicts may disrupt the Groups multi-tier automotive supply chain, constrain access to critical components, and adversely affect the Groups production capability and financial performance."* 

As the Group continues to expand in the growth markets, the risk of such disruptions is heightened. The unavailability of even a single small subcomponent necessary to manufacture one of the Group's products, for whatever reason, could force the Group to cease production of that product, possibly for a prolonged period. Similarly, a potential quality issue could force the Group to halt deliveries while the Group validates the products. Even when products are ready to be shipped, or have been shipped, delays may arise before they reach the Group's customer. Also, similar difficulties for other suppliers may force the Group's customers to halt production, which may in turn impact the Group's sales shipments to such customers.

When the Group fails to deliver in a timely manner, the Group may have to absorb its own costs for identifying and resolving the ultimate problem as well as expeditiously producing and shipping replacement components or products. Generally, the Group must also carry the costs associated with "catching up," such as overtime and premium freight.

If the Group is the cause of a customer being forced to halt production, the customer may seek to recoup all of its losses and expenses from the Group. These losses and expenses could be very significant and may include consequential losses such as lost profits. Where a customer halts production because of another supplier failing to deliver on time, the Group may not be fully compensated, if at all.

Thus, any such supply chain disruptions could severely impact the Group's operations and/or those of the Group's customers and force the Group to halt production for prolonged periods of time which could expose the Group to

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 9 – Hogan Lovells

------

material claims for compensation and have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, operating results and financial condition.

***Adverse developments affecting on the Group's suppliers could harm the Group's profitability***

Any significant disruption in the Group's supplier relationships, particularly relationships with single-source suppliers, could harm the Group's profitability. Furthermore, some of the Group's suppliers may not be able to sufficiently manage the currency commodity cost volatility and/or sharply changing volumes while still performing as the Group expects. For example, recalls or field actions from the Group's customers can stress the capacity of the Group's supply chain and may inhibit the Group's ability to timely deliver order volumes. The Group may incur costs as it tries to make contingency plans to manage the risks for delivery delays, production delays, production issues or delivery of non-conforming products by the Group's suppliers.

***Changes in the source, cost, availability of and regulations pertaining to raw materials and components may adversely affect the Group's profit margins***

The Group's business uses a broad range of raw materials and components in the manufacture of the Group's products, nearly all of which are generally available from a number of qualified suppliers. The Group's industry may be affected from time to time by limited supplies or price fluctuations of certain key components and materials. Strong worldwide demand for certain raw materials has had a significant impact on prices and short-term availability in recent years. Such price increases have materially increased, and could continue to materially increase the Group's operating costs and materially and adversely affect the Group's profit margins, as direct material costs amounted to approximately 54% of the Group's net sales in 2025, of which approximately half represents raw material costs. Commercial negotiations with the Group's customers and suppliers may not always offset all of the adverse impact of higher raw material, energy, labour, logistics, and commodity costs, including those resulting from tariffs and trade restrictions (including retaliatory tariffs). These negotiations may also not be successful in the future. Even where the Group is able to pass price increases on to the Group's customers, (i) there may be a delay before the Group can do so, requiring the Group to absorb the cost increase in the interim, and (ii) a negative impact on the Group's relationships with such customers and suppliers which may limit the Group's ability to secure future awards from customers and/or obtain acceptable supplies from suppliers. In addition, no assurance can be given that the magnitude or duration of current or future cost increases will not have a larger adverse impact on the Group's profitability or consolidated financial position than currently anticipated. Furthermore, if raw material costs decrease, the cost of the Group's products may also decrease, as such prices are often indexed to the raw material costs.

Additionally, various government regulators require companies that manufacture products containing certain minerals and their derivatives that are known as "conflict minerals", originating from the Democratic Republic of Congo or adjoining countries to perform due diligence and report the source of such materials. There are significant resources associated with complying with these requirements, including diligence efforts to determine the sources of conflict minerals used in the Group's products and potential changes to the Group's processes or supplies as a consequence of such diligence efforts. As there may be only a limited number of suppliers able to offer certified "conflict free" conflict minerals, there can be no assurance that the Group will be able to obtain necessary conflict free minerals from such suppliers in sufficient quantities or at competitive prices. The Group may face reputational challenges if the Group determines that certain of the Group's products contain minerals not determined to be conflict free or if the Group is unable to sufficiently verify the origins for all minerals used in the Group's products through the procedures the Group may implement. Furthermore, the Group's customers are increasingly requiring the Group to track sustainable sources of certain raw materials, which also requires additional diligence efforts and there can be no assurance that the Group will be able to obtain these materials in a cost-efficient and sustainable manner. Accordingly, these rules and customer requirements may adversely affect the Group's business, operating results, cash flows and financial condition.

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 10 – Hogan Lovells

***The Group's business could be materially and adversely affected if the Group loses any of the Group's largest customers, loses business from any of its largest customers, or if any such customers were unable to pay their invoices***

The Group is dependent on a few large customers with strong purchasing power. This is the result of customer consolidation in the last few decades. In 2025, the Group's top five customers represented around 44% of the Group's consolidated sales. The Group's largest customer contract accounted for around 42% of the Group's consolidated sales. Although business with any given customer is typically split into several contracts (either on the basis of one contract per vehicle model or on a broader platform basis), the loss of business from any of the Group's major customers (whether by lower overall demand for vehicles, cancellation of existing contracts or the failure to award the Group new business) could have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, operating results, and financial condition. Additionally, supply chain disruptions experienced by the Group's customers could result in, among others, decreased demand and production or aggressive renegotiation of supplier contracts, all of which could have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, operating results, and financial condition. Similarly, further consolidation of the Group's customers in the future could make the Group more reliant upon a smaller group of customers for a significant portion of the Group's consolidated sales and negatively impact the Group's bargaining power when contracting with such customers.

Customers may put the Group on a "new business hold" which would limit the Group's ability to quote or be awarded all or part of their future vehicle contracts if quality or other issues arise in the vehicles for which the Group was a supplier. This may have a severely negative impact on the Group's order intake. Such new business holds range in length and scope and are generally accompanied by a certain set of remedial conditions that must be met before the Group is eligible to bid for new business. Meeting any such conditions within the prescribed timeframe may require additional Issuer resources. A failure to satisfy any such conditions may have a material adverse impact on the Group's operating results and financial condition in the long term.

There is a risk that one or more of the Group's major customers may be unable to pay the Group's invoices as they become due or that a customer will simply refuse to make such payments given its financial difficulties. If a major customer enters into bankruptcy proceedings or similar proceedings whereby contractual commitments are subject to stay of execution and the possibility of legal or other modification, or if a major customer otherwise successfully procures protection against the Group legally enforcing its obligations, it is likely, absent special relief such as having a "preferred status", that the Group will be forced to record a substantial loss.

Additional information concerning the Group's major customers is included in Note 21 (*Segment Information*) to the 2025 Consolidated Financial Statements.

***The Group's inability to effectively manage the timing, quality and costs of new programme launches could adversely affect the Group's business, operating results, cash flows, and the Group's financial condition***

To compete effectively in the automotive supply industry, the Group must be able to launch new products that meet the Group's customers' timing, performance, and quality standards. At times, the Group faces an uneven number of launches and some launches, for various reasons, may have shortened launch lead times. The Group cannot provide assurance that the Group will be able to install and certify the equipment needed to produce products for new programmes in time for the start of production, or that transitioning the Group's manufacturing facilities and resources to full production for such new programmes will not impact production rates or other operational efficiency measures at the Group's facilities. In addition, the Group cannot provide assurance that the Group's customers will execute on schedule the launch of their new product programmes, for which the Group might supply products. As a Tier 1 supplier, the Group must effectively coordinate the activities of numerous suppliers in order to launch programmes successfully. Given the complexity of new programme launches, particularly those involving new and innovative technologies, the Group may experience difficulties managing product quality, timeliness and associated costs. In addition, new programme launches require a significant ramp-up of costs; however, sales related to these programmes generally depend on the timing and success of new vehicle introductions of new vehicles by the Group's

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 11 – Hogan Lovells

------

customers. The Group's inability to effectively manage the timing, quality and costs of these new programme launches could adversely affect the Group's business, operating results, cash flows, and financial condition.

***Changes in the Group's product mix may impact the Group's operating results and financial condition***

The Group sells products that have varying profit margins. The Group's financial performance can be impacted depending on the mix of products the Group sells during a given period. The Group's earnings guidance, estimates and financial targets assume a certain product sales mix as well as a geographic sales mix as many of the growth markets have a lower CPV. If actual results vary significantly from this projected product and geographic mix of sales, the Group's operating results and financial condition could be negatively impacted.

***The Group is involved from time to time in legal proceedings and the Group's business may suffer as a result of adverse outcomes of current or future legal proceedings***

The Group is, from time to time, involved in litigation, regulatory proceedings and commercial or contractual disputes that may be significant. These matters may include, without limitation, disputes with the Group's suppliers and customers, intellectual property claims, shareholder litigation, government investigations, class action lawsuits, personal injury claims, product liability claims, environmental issues, antitrust, customs and VAT disputes, employment, and tax issues. In such matters, government agencies or private parties may seek to recover from the Group very large, indeterminate amounts in penalties or monetary damages (including, in some cases, treble or punitive damages) or seek to limit the Group's operations in some way. The possibility exists that claims may be asserted against the Group and their magnitude may remain unknown for long periods of time. For example, the Group is currently in the early stages of a dispute with the Mexican tax authorities in relation to various issues connected to certain manufacturing activities that occur in Mexico. An adverse result in this or other similar disputes could have a materially negative impact on the Group's operating results and financial condition. These types of lawsuits could require a significant amount of management's time and attention and a substantial legal liability or adverse regulatory outcome and the substantial expenses to defend the litigation or regulatory proceedings may have a material adverse effect on the Group's customer relationships, business prospects, reputation, operating results, cash flows and financial condition. No assurances can be given that such proceedings and claims will not have a material adverse impact on the Group's profitability and consolidated financial position or that the Group's established reserves or the Group's available insurance will mitigate such impact.

***The Group is and may be in the future subject to civil antitrust litigation that could negatively impact the Group's business***

The Group was previously the subject of an investigation by the European Commission ("**EC**") regarding possible anti-competitive behavior among certain suppliers to the automotive vehicle industry, that was resolved in 2019. The Group is subject to a civil antitrust lawsuit in Germany filed by a customer with respect to allegations over a decade ago and may be subject to such civil antitrust lawsuits in the future in countries that permit such civil claims, including lawsuits or other actions by their customers. These types of lawsuits require significant management time and attention and could result in significant expenses. Any unfavorable outcomes of such lawsuits could have a material adverse impact on the Group's customer relationships, business prospects, reputation, operating results, cash flows and financial condition, and the Group's insurance may not mitigate such impact. See Note 19 (*Contingent Liabilities*) of the 2025 Consolidated Financial Statements.

***Work stoppages, slow-downs or other labour issues at the Group's customers' facilities or at the Group's facilities could adversely affect the Group's business, operating results, and financial condition*** 

As the automotive industry relies heavily on "just-in-time" delivery of components during the assembly and manufacture of vehicles, a work stoppage or slow-down at one or more of the Group's facilities could have material adverse effects on the Group's business. Similarly, if any of the Group's customers were to experience a work stoppage or slow-down, that customer may halt or limit the purchase of the Group's products. Similarly, a work stoppage or slow-down at another supplier could interrupt production at one of the Group's customers' facilities which would have the same effect. Furthermore, geopolitical instability or conflicts could displace workers or trigger

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 12 – Hogan Lovells

------

the migration of workers, causing labor shortages in critical areas, which could further disrupt operations. Labor shortages could also increase wages as multiple companies and facilities compete for a shrinking pool of workers. While labour contract negotiations at the Group's facilities historically have rarely resulted in work stoppages, no assurances can be given that the Group will be able to negotiate acceptable contracts with these unions or that the Group's failure to do so will not result in work stoppages. A work stoppage or other labour disruption at one or more of the Group's facilities or the Group's customers' facilities could cause the Group to shut down production facilities supplying these products, which could have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, operating results and financial condition.

***The Group's ability to operate effectively could be impaired if the Group fails to attract and retain executive officers and other key personnel***

The Group's ability to operate the Group's business and implement the Group's strategies effectively depends, in part, on the efforts of the Group's executive officers and other key employees. The Group's future success will depend on, among other factors, the Group's ability to attract, develop and retain other qualified personnel, particularly engineers and other employees with software and technical expertise. The loss of the services of any of the Group's executive officers or other key employees or the failure to attract, develop or retain other qualified personnel could have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, operating results and financial condition.

***Restructuring, efficiency, and strategic initiatives and capacity alignments are complex and difficult and at any time additional restructuring steps may be necessary, possibly on short notice and at significant cost***

The Group's restructuring, efficiency, strategic initiatives and capacity alignments include efforts to adjust the Group's manufacturing capacity, direct and indirect labour workforce and cost structure to meet current and projected operational and market requirements. Those efforts include plant closures, transferring sourcing to best-cost countries, consolidating the Group's supplier base, and standardising products to reduce overhead costs and consolidate the Group's operational centres. The successful implementation of the Group's restructuring activities and capacity alignments involves sourcing, logistics, technology and employment arrangements. As these restructuring, efficiency, and strategic initiatives and capacity alignments can be complex, difficulties or delays in implementation may occur, or the initiatives and capacity alignments may not be immediately effective, resulting in an adverse material impact on the Group's performance. In addition, there is a risk that inflation, high turnover rates, and increased competition may reduce the efficiencies currently available in best-cost countries to levels that no longer allow for cost-beneficial restructuring opportunities. Therefore, there can be no assurances that any future restructurings or capacity alignments will be completed as planned or will achieve the desired results. See Note 13 (*Restructuring*) to the 2025 Consolidated Financial Statements.

***A prolonged recession and/or a downturn in the Group's industry could result in the Group having insufficient funds to continue the Group's operations and external financing may not be available to the Group or available only on materially different terms than what has historically been available***

The Group's ability to generate cash from the Group's operations is highly dependent on automotive sales and LVP, the global economy, and the economies of the Group's important markets. If LVP were to remain on low levels for an extended period of time, the Group would experience a significantly negative cash flow. Similarly, if cash losses resulting from customer defaults were to rise sharply, the Group would experience a negative cash flow. Such negative cash flow could result in the Group's having insufficient funds to continue the Group's operations unless the Group can procure external financing, which may not be possible.

The Group's access to debt, securitisation, or derivative markets around the world at competitive rates or in sufficient amounts could be affected by credit rating downgrades, market volatility, market disruption, regulatory requirements, or other factors. The Group's ability to obtain unsecured funding at a reasonable cost is dependent on the Group's credit ratings or perceived creditworthiness. The Group's current credit rating could be lowered as a result of the Group experiencing significant negative cash flows, increasing the Group's indebtedness and leverage, or a dire financial outlook, which may affect the Group's ability to procure financing. The Group may also for the same, or

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 13 – Hogan Lovells

------

other reasons, find it difficult to secure new long-term credit facilities, at reasonable terms, when the Group's principal credit facility expires in 2029. Further, even the Group's existing unutilised credit facilities may not be available to the Group as agreed, or only at additional cost, if participating banks are unable to raise the necessary funds, where, for instance, financial markets are not functioning as expected or one or more banks in the Group's principal credit facility syndicate were to default. As a result, the Group cannot assure that it will continue to have sufficient liquidity to meet its operating needs. In the event that the Group does not have sufficient external financing it may be required to seek additional capital, sell assets, reduce or cut back its operating activities or otherwise alter its business strategy.

Information concerning the Group's credit facilities and other financings are included in Item 7 (*Treasury Activities*) and Note 15 (*Debt and Credit Agreements*) to the 2025 Consolidated Financial Statements.

***The Group's indebtedness may harm the Group's financial condition and operating results*** 

As at 31 December 2025, the Group had outstanding debt of US$2.2 billion. The Group may incur additional debt for a variety of reasons. Although the Group's significant credit facilities and debt agreements do not have any financial covenants, the Group's level of indebtedness will have several important effects on the Group's future operations, including, without limitation:

 a portion of the Group's cash flows from operations will be dedicated to the payment of any interest or could be used for amortisation required with respect to outstanding indebtedness;

 increases in the Group's outstanding indebtedness and leverage will increase the Group's vulnerability to adverse changes in general economic and industry conditions, as well as to competitive pressure;

 depending on the levels of the Group's outstanding debt, the Group's ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, acquisitions, capital expenditures, general corporate and other purposes may be limited; and

 potential future tightening of the availability of capital both from financial institutions and the debt markets may have an adverse effect on the Group's ability to access additional capital.

***Governmental restrictions may impact the Group's business adversely***

Some of the Group's customers are (or may be) owned by a governmental entity, receive various forms of governmental aid or support or are subject to governmental influence in other forms, which may impact the Group as a supplier to these customers. As a result, they may be required to partner with local entities or procure components from local suppliers to achieve a specific local content or be subject to other restrictions regarding localised content or ownership. The nature and form of any such restrictions or protections, whatever their basis, is very difficult to predict as is their potential impact. However, they are likely to be based on political rather than economical or operational considerations and may materially impact the Group's business.

***Impairment charges relating to the Group's assets, goodwill and other intangible assets could adversely affect the Group's financial performance***

The Group periodically reviews the carrying value of the Group's assets, goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment indicators. If one or more of the Group's customers' facilities cease production or decrease their production volumes, the assets the Group carries related to the Group's facilities serving such customers may decrease in value because the Group may no longer be able to utilise or realise them as intended. Where such decreases are significant, such impairments may have a materially adverse impact on the Group's financial results. The Group monitors the various factors that impact the valuation of the Group's goodwill and other intangible assets, including expected future cash flow levels, global economic conditions, market price for the Group's stock, and trends with the Group's customers. Impairment of goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets may result from, among other things, deterioration in the Group's performance and especially the cash flow performance of these goodwill assets, adverse market conditions and adverse changes in applicable laws or regulations. If there are changes in these circumstances or the other variables associated with the estimates, judgments and assumptions relating to

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 14 – Hogan Lovells

------

the valuation of goodwill, when assessing the valuation of the Group's goodwill items, the Group may determine that it is appropriate to write down a portion of the Group's goodwill or intangible assets and record related non-cash impairment charges. In the event that the Group determines that it is required to write-down a portion of the Group's goodwill items and other intangible assets and thereby record related non-cash impairment charges, the Group's operating results and financial condition would be adversely affected.

***The Group faces risks related to the Group's defined benefit pension plans and employee benefit plans, including the need for additional funding as well as higher costs and liabilities***

The Group's defined benefit pension plans or employee benefit plans may require additional funding or give rise to higher related costs and liabilities which, in some circumstances, could reach material amounts and negatively affect the Group's operating results. The Group is required to make certain year-end assumptions regarding the Group's pension plans. The Group's pension obligations are dependent on several factors, including factors outside the Group's control such as changes in interest rates, the market performance of the diversified investments underlying the pension plans, actuarial data and adjustments and an increase in the minimum funding requirements or other regulatory changes governing the plans. Adverse equity market conditions and volatility in the credit market may have an unfavourable impact on the value of the Group's pension assets and the Group's future estimated pension liabilities. Internal factors such as an adjustment to the level of benefits provided under the plans may also lead to an increase in the Group's pension liability. If these or other internal and external risks were to occur, alone or in combination, the Group's required contributions to the plans and the costs and net liabilities associated with the plans could increase substantially and have a material effect on the Group's business.

Information concerning the Group's benefit plans is included in Note 20 (*Retirement Plans*) of the 2025 Consolidated Financial Statements.

***The Group's cybersecurity incidents or other damage to the Group's technology infrastructure could disrupt business operations, result in the loss of critical and confidential information, and adversely impact the Group's reputation and operating results***

The Group relies extensively on information technology ("**IT**") networks and systems, and those of the Group's third-party service providers, and the Group's global data centres and services provided over the internet to process, transmit and store electronic information, and to manage or support a variety of business processes or activities across the Group's facilities worldwide.. The secure operation of the Group's IT networks and systems, and those of the Group's third-party service providers, and the proper processing and maintenance of this information are critical to the Group's business operations. The Group has been, and likely will continue to be, subject to cyber-attacks. Although the Group seeks to deploy comprehensive security measures to prevent, detect, address and mitigate these threats, there has been an increased level of activity, and an associated level of sophistication, in cyber-attacks against large multinational companies. Threat actors, including nation state attackers, could also use artificial intelligence for malicious purposes, increasing the frequency, velocity, and complexity of their attacks. The ever-evolving threats mean the Group and the Group's third-party service providers and vendors must continually evaluate and adapt the Group's respective systems and processes and overall security environment, as well as those of any companies the Group acquires. There is no guarantee that these measures will be fully implemented, complied with, or effective in safeguarding against all data security incidents, system compromises or misuses of data.

The Group's security measures may be compromised due to human or technological error, employee malfeasance, system malfunctions or attacks from uncoordinated individuals or from organised threat actors groups using sophisticated and targeted measures known as advanced persistent threats, directed at the Group, its products, its customers and/or its third-party service providers, and/or other entities with whom the Group does business. Due to the fact that techniques used to obtain unauthorized access or to sabotage systems change frequently and generally are not recognized until they are launched against a target, the Group may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate preventative measures.

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 15 – Hogan Lovells

------

Disruptions and attacks on the Group's IT systems or the systems of third parties storing the Group's data or employee malfeasance or human or technological error could result in the unauthorised access, misappropriation, loss, destruction or corruption of the Group's critical data and confidential or proprietary information, personal information of the Group's employees, the Group's customers' confidential information, and/or the improper use of the Group's systems and networks, production downtimes and both internal and external supply shortages, which could have a material adverse effect on the Group's operating results. Such disruptions or attacks may also result in the theft of intellectual property or other misappropriation of assets, or otherwise compromise the Group's confidential or proprietary information and materially disrupt the Group's operations. The potential consequences of a material cybersecurity incident include reputational damage, damaged customer relationships, loss of revenue, decreased order intake in the future, theft of intellectual property, litigation with third parties, diminution in the value of the Group's investment in research, development and engineering, diversion of the attention of management away from the operation of the Group's business and increased cybersecurity protection and remediation costs, legal claims and liability, regulatory scrutiny, sanctions, fines or penalties (which may not be covered by the Group's insurance policies), negative publicity, release of sensitive and/or confidential information, or increases in operating expenses, which in turn could adversely affect the Group's competitiveness and operating results. To the extent that any disruption or security incident results in an unauthorised access, misappropriation, loss, destruction or corruption of the Group's customer's information, it could affect the Group's relationships with the Group's customers, create significant expense for the Group to investigate and remediate any damage, lead to claims against the Group and ultimately harm the Group's business, strategy, result of operations, or financial condition.

In addition, the Group may be required to incur significant costs to protect against damage caused by these disruptions or security incidents in the future. In the event that the Group's systems, or those of the Group's third-party service providers, are compromised or attacked, the Group may also suffer an outage, failure, or unavailability of data or information technology systems, and interruptions to the Group's business operations while such incident or attack is being remedied which may impact the Group's data or systems, operated by the Group, or by third-party service providers. In addition, as the regulatory environment related to information security, data collection and use, and privacy becomes increasingly rigorous, with new and constantly changing requirements applicable to the Group's business, compliance with those requirements could result in additional costs. Furthermore, the Group's technology systems and those of its third-party service providers are vulnerable to damage or interruption from natural disasters, power loss and telecommunication failures. The Group continuously seeks to maintain a robust program of information security and controls, however, any future significant compromise of the Group's data security, whether external or internal, or misuse of customer, associate, supplier or Issuer data, could result in significant costs, lost sales, fines, lawsuits, and damage to the Group's reputation.

***Increasing reliance on artificial intelligence technologies exposes the Group to operational, cybersecurity, and intellectual property risks***

The Group increasingly utilizes artificial intelligence ("**AI**") and machine-learning technologies across various aspects of its manufacturing operations, including quality assurance, predictive maintenance, production automation, and supply-chain planning. While these technologies are intended to improve efficiency and reduce costs, their deployment introduces significant risks that could adversely affect the Group's business, operating results, and financial condition. AI systems depend on the availability of accurate, comprehensive, and properly structured data. If the data underlying these systems is incomplete, inconsistent, or of poor quality, AI outputs may be unreliable, resulting in inaccurate demand forecasts, flawed inventory or production decisions, or erroneous quality-control assessments. Such outcomes could disrupt manufacturing, increase costs, and reduce the Group's ability to fulfill customer requirements. The Group's integration of AI with interconnected operational technology also increases its vulnerability to cybersecurity threats. AI-enabled systems and Internet-of-Things ("**IoT**") devices expand the potential attack surface for threat actors, and certain legacy equipment used in the Group's facilities may not have been designed with modern cybersecurity protections. A successful cyberattack on an AI-enabled system could compromise sensitive data, disrupt production processes, damage equipment, or lead to extended downtime. In addition, the use of AI tools may require processing confidential and proprietary manufacturing data. If such data is

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 16 – Hogan Lovells

------

improperly handled, stored, or transmitted - especially through AI platforms that connect to external networks - there is a heightened risk of inadvertent disclosure or theft of intellectual property, including proprietary production methods, equipment configurations, and process data. Such exposure could erode the Group's competitive advantages. If the Group fails to implement effective AI governance, risk-management protocols, cybersecurity controls, or compliance processes, it may be unable to mitigate these risks adequately. Further, the legal and regulatory environment relating to AI is uncertain and rapidly evolving, both in the U.S. and internationally, and includes regulatory schemes targeted specifically at AI as well as provisions in intellectual property, privacy, consumer protection, employment, and other laws applicable to the use of AI. These evolving laws and regulations could require changes in the Group's implementation of AI technology and increase compliance costs and the risk of non-compliance. Any of the foregoing risks, individually or in the aggregate, could materially and adversely affect the Group's operations, reputation, competitive position, and financial performance.

***Third parties that maintain certain of the Group's confidential and proprietary information could experience a cybersecurity incident***

The Group relies on third parties to provide or maintain some of the Group's IT systems, data centres and related services and do not exercise direct control over these systems. Despite the implementation of security measures at third party locations, these IT systems, data centres and cloud services are also vulnerable to security incidents or other disruptions. Additionally, the Group and certain of the Group's third-party service providers, collect and store personal information in connection with human resources operations and other aspects of the Group's business. While the Group obtains assurances that any third parties the Group provides data to will protect this information and, where the management of the Group deem appropriate, monitor the protections these third parties employ, there remains a risk that the confidentiality and security of data held by the Group or by third parties may be exposing the Group to liability.

***Global climate change could negatively affect the Group's business***

Public awareness and concern regarding global climate change may result in more regional and/or national requirements to reduce or mitigate the effects of greenhouse gas emissions. In addition, the Group's shareholders and customers may, to varying levels, expect the Group to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions. Current and any future regulations aimed at mitigating climate change may negatively impact the prices of raw materials and energy which could impact demand for the Group's products and adversely affect the Group's operating results and financial condition. The costs to comply with new or amended laws, and violations of these laws, which may result in substantial fines and penalties, remediation costs, third party damages, or a suspension or cessation of the Group's operations, may be significant.

The manifestations of climate change, such as extreme weather conditions or more frequent extreme weather events, including wildfires, flooding, water stress and extreme heat, could also disrupt the Group's operations, damage the Group's facilities, disrupt the Group's supply chain, including the Group's customers or suppliers, impact the availability and cost of materials needed for manufacturing or increase insurance and other operating costs. As a result, severe weather or a natural disaster that results in a prolonged disruption to the Group's operations, or the operations of the Group's customers or suppliers, could have a material adverse effect on the Group's business operating results, cash flows and financial condition.

***The Group's goals, targets and ambitions related to sustainability and emissions reduction, and its public statements and disclosures regarding them, may, from time to time, result in additional considerations or expectations and expose the Group to risks***

The Group has developed, and will continue to develop and set, goals, targets, ambitions and other objectives related to sustainability matters, including its net-zero emission targets both for the Group and its supply chain. Some of these are based on the Group's internal scenario analysis, which may not prove to be accurate and carries inherent uncertainties. Statements related to these goals, targets, ambitions and objectives reflect the Group's current plans and do not constitute a guarantee that they will be achieved. The Group's efforts to research, establish, accomplish, and accurately report on these goals, targets, and objectives expose it to operational, reputational, financial, legal,

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 17 – Hogan Lovells

------

and other risks. Additionally, there can be no assurance that the Group will be able to secure pricing from the Group's customers that reflects any increased costs of developing and manufacturing sustainable products. If the Group is unable to recover these costs, its business, operating results, cash flows, and financial condition may be adversely affected. Greenhouse gas emissions, particularly emissions that come from individuals and entities up and down the value chain (otherwise known as Scope 3 emissions), are very difficult to estimate and the Group's estimates may be materially different than actual emissions. The manner in which the Group estimates and discloses Scope 3 emissions may differ from other companies and be different than future regulatory requirements. Currently, the Group does not include downstream Scope 3 emissions in its targets and ambitions. If future governmental regulations require the Group to modify the basis of the Group's Scope 3 emissions disclosure, the Group's historically disclosed Scope 3 emissions may change materially. The Group's ability to achieve any stated goal, target, ambition or objective, including with respect to emissions reduction, is subject to numerous factors and conditions, some of which are outside of the Group's control.

The Group's business may face increased interest from investors and other stakeholders related to its sustainability initiatives, including the goals, targets, and objectives that the Group announces, and its methodologies and timelines for pursuing them. Failure or perceived failure to pursue or fulfil such initiatives could adversely affect its business or reputation, as well as expose the Group to government enforcement actions and private litigation.

**Risks related to International Operations**

***The Group's business is exposed to risks inherent in international operations***

The Group currently conducts operations in various countries and jurisdictions, including locating certain of the Group's manufacturing and distribution facilities internationally, which subjects the Group to the legal, political, regulatory and social requirements and economic conditions in these jurisdictions. Some of these countries are considered growth markets and emerging markets. International sales and operations, especially in growth markets, subject the Group to certain risks inherent in doing business abroad, including:

 exposure to local economic conditions;

 unexpected changes in laws, regulations, trade, or monetary or fiscal policy, including interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, and changes in inflation rates;

 foreign tax consequences;

 inability to collect, or delays in collecting, value-added taxes and/or other receivables associated with remittances and other payments by subsidiaries;

 exposure to local political turmoil and challenging labour conditions;

 changes in general economic and political conditions in countries where the Group operates, particularly in emerging markets;

 expropriation and nationalisation;

 enforcing legal agreements or collecting receivables through foreign legal systems;

 wage inflation;

 currency controls, including lack of liquidity in foreign currency due to governmental restrictions, trade protection policies and currency controls, which may create difficulty in repatriating profits or making other remittances;

 compliance with the requirements of an increasing body of applicable anti-bribery laws;

 reduced intellectual property protection in various markets;

 investment restrictions or requirements; and

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 18 – Hogan Lovells

------

 the imposition of tariffs and duties, and the burden of complying with a wide variety of international and U.S. export control and economic sanction laws.

The Group is subject to taxation in the U.S. and numerous foreign jurisdictions. The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development ("**OECD**") continues its base erosion and profit shifting ("**BEPS**") project begun in 2015 with new proposals for a global minimum tax, further development of a coordinated set of rules for taxation and the allocation of taxing rights between jurisdictions. These proposals, if adopted by countries in which the Group operates, could result in changes to tax policies, including transfer pricing policies, which could ultimately impact the Group's tax liabilities.

Changes in tax laws or policies by the U.S. or foreign jurisdictions could result in a higher effective tax rate on the Group's worldwide earnings and any such change could have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, operating results, cash flows, and financial condition. The Group's international operations also depend upon trade relations between the countries where the Group manufactures and sells products and those countries in which the Group's customers and suppliers have operations. The current U.S. presidential administration has created uncertainty about the relationships between the U.S. and certain of its trading partners, including with respect to the trade policies and agreements, treaties, government regulations, and the tariffs that apply to trade between the U.S. and other nations. For example in 2025, the U.S. administration imposed tariffs affecting imports to the U.S. from nearly every country by executive action adopted and modified without predictable timelines, creating increased operational and financial exposure for companies dependent on cross-border trade. Other countries, including China, responded with retaliatory tariffs or, like the European Union, announced it is considering retaliatory tariffs. Changes in national policy, other governmental action related to tariffs or international trade agreements, changes in social, political regulatory, and economic conditions or in laws and policies governing foreign trade, manufacturing, development and investment in the territories and countries where the Group currently manufactures and sells products, as well as any resulting negative sentiments towards the Group as a result of such changes could depress economic activity restrict the Group's access to suppliers or customers and have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, operating results, cash flows, and financial condition.

Increasing the Group's manufacturing footprint in the growth markets and the Group's business relationships with automotive manufacturers in these markets are particularly important elements of the Group's strategy. As a result, the Group's exposure to the risks described above may be greater in the future, and the Group's exposure to risks associated with developing countries, such as the risk of political upheaval and reliability of local infrastructure, may increase. This could also impact importing certain foreign-produced vehicles into the U.S. Changes in national policy, or continued uncertainty could depress economic activity and restrict the Group's access to suppliers or customers, and have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, operating results, cash flows and financial condition. Additionally, trade restrictions or material increases in tariffs could impact the Group's targets, earnings guidance, and estimates. The ultimate impact of any tariffs, including any related responses, are uncertain and will depend on various factors, including the timing of implementation, and the amount, scope, and nature of the tariffs. Any or all of these actions could adversely affect the Group's business, financial condition and cash flows.

***Tariffs, sanctions, and geopolitical conflicts may disrupt the Group's multi-tier automotive supply chain, constrain access to critical components, and adversely affect the Group's production capabilities and financial performance***

The Group's operations rely on a geographically distributed, multi-tier supply chain structure that makes the Group acutely sensitive to shifts in global trade policy, export-control regimes, and geopolitical conflict. Recent U.S. trade actions affecting imports from major automotive manufacturing hubs, including broad, rapidly shifting tariff frameworks and sector-specific levies have increased global cost volatility and introduced uncertainty regarding long-term sourcing strategies. Wide-ranging tariff escalation across key trade partners has reshaped global trade flows and imposed substantial cost burdens on manufacturers dependent on cross-border supply chains. Such measures can directly affect the Group's ability to procure components and precision-machined parts at competitive

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 19 – Hogan Lovells

------

prices. These increased input costs may not be fully recoverable through pricing, particularly under fixed-price or lifetime-pricing automotive supply agreements. Semiconductor and sensor sourcing relies heavily on global electronics supply chains, which are increasingly affected by export controls, entity-list restrictions, and sanctions targeting technology supply routes. Expanding U.S. and international restrictions on transfers of semiconductors and related technologies such as licensing requirements for chip exports to certain entities have already produced material disruptions and revenue impacts within the broader electronics ecosystem. If the Group's Tier-1 or Tier-2 suppliers lose access to critical silicon or manufacturing equipment due to export controls or sanctions, the Group may face prolonged allocation constraints, extended lead times, or forced redesigns.

Military conflicts routinely create systemic disruptions across global automotive supply chains. They may block critical choke points, destabilize upstream manufacturing regions, or restrict access to raw materials such as aluminum, nickel, palladium, and specialized production sourced from conflict-affected areas. A significant proportion of global enterprises have experienced conflict-driven disruptions, with impacts concentrated in logistics paralysis, supplier instability, and escalating compliance obligations. State-based armed conflict is also identified as one of the most immediate global risks to supply chain continuity, threatening transportation corridors, energy markets, and manufacturing hubs essential to the automotive sector. Many of these geopolitical and regulatory shocks originate deep within Tier-2, Tier-3, or Tier-N suppliers of rare-earth magnets and critical minerals. Because sub-tier suppliers are often located in high-risk regions or depend on fragile logistics networks, disruptions, whether due to conflict, export controls, sanctions, or other regulatory actions, may propagate upstream before detection. A substantial portion of global supply chain disruptions originate at these deeper tiers, underscoring the structural risk inherent in automotive supply networks with limited transparency below Tier-1. Any combination of tariff escalation, sanctions, or military conflict may: reduce availability of critical electronic and mechanical components; necessitate redesigns of products due to unavailable semiconductors or restricted materials; increase logistics costs through rerouted shipments or loss of air/sea corridors; force production slowdowns or stoppages at the Group's facilities or those of its OEM customers; require emergency multi-sourcing, localized manufacturing transitions, or new supplier qualifications that extend program timing. Because automotive supply contracts typically impose strict delivery, quality, and cost-reduction obligations, disruptions of this nature could materially affect the Group's business, operating results, cash flows, and financial condition. The Group may also incur higher safety-stock requirements, expedited freight costs, or capital expenditures to re-engineer systems or tool new suppliers. As geopolitical conditions evolve, the Group cannot ensure that its mitigation strategies, including dual sourcing, buffer inventories, and supplier diversification, will fully offset the operational and financial impacts of these events.

***Significant changes in the United States Mexico Canada Agreement ("USMCA") could adversely affect the Group's financial performance***

The U.S., Mexico, and Canada entered into the USMCA, a successor to the North American Free Trade Agreement effective as of 1 July 2020. The USMCA changed the automotive rules of origin that dictate what percentage of an automobile must be built from parts that originated from countries in the USMCA territory. The rules require that at least 75% of parts be made in North America and that 40-45% of an automobile must be made by workers earning at least US$16 an hour. Reflective of the automotive industry, the Group's vehicle parts manufacturing facilities in the U.S., Mexico, and Canada are highly dependent on duty-free trade amongst the U.S., Mexico, and Canada. The critical nature of USMCA eligibility of products involved in such trade has increased significantly as a result of the exemption such eligibility currently affords from additional tariffs imposed against Canada and Mexico by U.S. executive orders in 2025. The USMCA is undergoing a joint review in 2026. If the USMCA is terminated, or otherwise substantially amended, it could have a material adverse impact on the Group's financial performance. The imposition of customs duties on imports into the U.S., Mexico, or Canada could negatively impact the Group's financial performance.

***The Group's foreign operations may subject the Group to risks relating to laws governing international relations***

Due to the Group's global operations, the Group is subject to many laws governing international relations (including, but not limited to, the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, and other anti-bribery regulations in foreign jurisdictions where

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 20 – Hogan Lovells

------

the Group does business), which prohibit improper payments to government officials and restrict where and how the Group can do business, what information or products the Group can supply to certain countries and what information the Group can provide to governmental authorities. The Group also exports components and products that are subject to certain U.S. trade regulations, including the U.S. Export Administration Regulations and various economic sanctions programmes administered by the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control.

Although the Group has procedures and policies in place that should mitigate the risk of violating these laws, there is no guarantee that they will be sufficiently effective. If and when the Group acquires new businesses, the Group may not be able to ensure that the pre-existing controls and procedures meant to prevent violations of these laws were effective, and violations may occur if the Group is unable to timely implement corrective and effective controls and procedures when integrating newly acquired businesses. Any allegations of non-compliance with these laws could harm the Group's reputation, divert management attention and result in significant expenses, and could therefore materially harm the Group's business, operating results and financial condition.

***The Group's business in Asia is subject to aggressive competition and is sensitive to economic, market, and political conditions***

The Group operates in the automotive supply market throughout Asia including the highly competitive markets in China, South Korea and India. In each of these markets the Group faces competition from both international and smaller domestic manufacturers. Due to the significance of the Asian markets for the Group's profit and growth, the Group is exposed to risks in China, South Korea and India. The Group anticipates that additional competitors, both international and domestic, may seek to enter the Chinese, South Korean and/or Indian markets resulting in increased competition. Increased competition may result in lower sales volumes, price reductions, reduced margins and the Group's inability to gain or hold market share. There have been periods of increased market volatility and moderation in the levels of economic growth in China, which resulted in periods of lower automotive production growth rates in China than those previously experienced. The Group's business in Asia is sensitive to economic and market conditions that drive automotive sales volumes in China, South Korea and India and may be impacted if there are reductions in vehicle demand in those markets. If the Group is unable to maintain its position in these Asian markets, the pace of growth slows, or vehicle sales in these markets decrease, the Group's business, operating results and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

***Global integration may result in additional risks***

Because of the Group's efforts to manage costs by integrating its operations globally, the Group faces the additional risk that, should any of the other risks discussed herein materialise, the negative effects could be more pronounced. For example, while supply delays of a component have typically only affected a few customer vehicle models, such a delay could now affect several vehicle models of several customers in several geographic areas. Similarly, any recall or warranty issue the Group faces due to a product defect or failure is now more likely to involve a larger number of units in several geographic areas.

***Exchange rate risks***

As a result of the Group's global presence, a significant portion of the Group's revenues and expenses are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. The Group is therefore subject to foreign currency risks and foreign exchange exposure. Such risks and exposures include:

 transaction exposure, which arises because the cost of a product originates in one currency and the product is sold in another currency;

 revaluation effects, which arise from valuation of assets denominated in other currencies than the reporting currency of each unit;

 translation exposure in the income statement, which arises when the income statements of non-U.S. subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars;

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 21 – Hogan Lovells

------

 translation exposure in the balance sheet, which arises when the balance sheets of non-U.S. subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars; and

 changes in the reported U.S. dollar amounts of cash flows.

The Group cannot predict exchange rate volatility or the extent of its impact on the Group's future financial results. The Group typically denominates foreign transactions in foreign currencies to achieve a natural hedge. However, a natural hedge cannot be achieved for all the Group's currency flows; therefore, a net transaction exposure remains within the group. The net exposure can be significant and creates a transaction exposure risk for the Group. The Group does not hedge translation exposure. However, the Group does engage in foreign exchange rate hedging from time to time related to foreign currency transactions. For additional information, see Part II, Item 7A. *"Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk - Currency risks"* of the 2025 Consolidated Financial Statements.

***The Group faces risks in connection with acquisitions, joint ventures, partnerships, and other strategic transactions*** 

The Group's growth has been enhanced through strategic transactions, including acquisitions of businesses, products and technologies, partnerships, strategic alliances and joint development agreements that the management of the Group believes will complement the Group's business. The Group regularly evaluates acquisition opportunities, frequently engage in acquisition discussions, conduct due diligence activities in connection with possible acquisitions, and, where appropriate, engage in acquisition negotiations. The Group may not be able to successfully identify suitable acquisition and joint venture candidates or complete transactions on acceptable terms, integrate acquired operations into the Group's existing operations or expand into new markets. The Group's failure to identify suitable strategic transactions may restrict the Group's ability to grow its business.

These strategic transactions also involve numerous additional risks to the Group and the Group's investors, including:

 risks related to retaining acquired management and employees;

 difficulties in integrating acquired technologies, products, operations, services and personnel with the Group's existing businesses;

 diversion of the Group's management's attention from other business concerns;

 assumption of contingent liabilities;

 potential adverse financial impacts, including from the amortisation of expenses related to intangible assets and from potential impairment of goodwill;

 incurrence of indebtedness; and

 potential damage to existing customer relationships or lack of customer acceptance or inability to attract new customers as a result of these transactions.

In the future, the Group may pursue acquisitions of businesses or products that are complementary to the Group's business but for which the Group has historically had little or no direct experience. These transactions can involve significant challenges and risks as well as significant time and resources that may divert management's attention from other business activities. If the Group fails to adequately manage these risks, the acquisitions and other strategic transactions may not result in revenue growth, operational synergies or service or technology enhancements, which could adversely affect the Group's financial condition.

**Risks related to Intellectual Property**

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 22 – Hogan Lovells

------

***If the Group's patents are declared invalid or the Group's technology infringes on the proprietary rights of others, the Group's ability to compete may be impaired***

The Group has developed a considerable amount of proprietary technology related to automotive safety systems and rely on a number of patents to protect such technology. The Group's intellectual property plays an important role in maintaining the Group's competitive position in a number of the markets the Group serves. At present, the Group holds more than 6,600 patents and patent applications covering a large number of innovations and product ideas, mainly in the fields of seatbelt and airbag technologies. In addition to the Group's in-house research and development efforts, the Group seeks to acquire rights to new intellectual property through corporate acquisitions, asset acquisitions, licensing and joint venture arrangements. The Group's patents and licenses expire on various dates during the period from 2026 to 2045. The Group does not expect the expiration of any single patent or licence to have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, operating results and financial condition.

Developments or assertions by or against the Group relating to intellectual property rights could negatively impact the Group's business. The Group primarily protects the Group's innovations with patents and vigorously protects and defends its patents, trademarks and know-how against infringement and unauthorised use. If the Group is not able to protect its intellectual property and the Group's proprietary rights and technology, the Group could lose those rights and incur substantial costs policing and defending those rights. The Group also generates licence revenue from these patents, which the Group may lose if the Group does not adequately protect the Group's intellectual property and proprietary rights. The Group's means of protecting the Group's intellectual property, proprietary rights and technology may not be adequate, and the Group's competitors may independently develop technologies that are similar or superior to the Group's proprietary technologies, duplicate the Group's technologies, or design around the patents the Group owns or licenses. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect the Group's proprietary rights to as great an extent as the laws of the U.S. and the Group may encounter significant problems in protecting and defending its intellectual property rights in certain foreign jurisdictions. This could make it difficult for the Group to stop the infringement of its patents or misappropriation of its other intellectual property rights. Proceedings to enforce the Group's patent rights in foreign jurisdictions could result in substantial costs and divert the Group's efforts and attention from other aspects of the Group's business. Accordingly, the Group's efforts to protect its intellectual property rights in such countries may be inadequate.

***The Group may not be able to protect the Group's proprietary technology and intellectual property rights, which could result in the loss of the Group's rights or increased costs***

Although the management of the Group believes that the Group's products and technology do not infringe the proprietary rights of others, third parties may assert infringement claims against the Group in the future. Additionally, the Group licences proprietary technology from third parties which is covered by patents, and the Group cannot be certain that any such patents will not be challenged, invalidated, or circumvented. Such licenses may also be non-exclusive, meaning the Group's competition may also be able to access such technology. Further, the Group expects to continue to expand the Group's products and services and expand into new businesses, including through developing new products, acquisitions, joint ventures and joint development agreements, which could increase the Group's exposure to patent and other intellectual property claims from competitors and other parties. If claims alleging patent, copyright or trademark infringement are brought against the Group and are successfully prosecuted against the Group, they could result in substantial costs. If a successful claim is made against the Group and the Group fails to develop non-infringing technology, the Group's business, operating results and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. In addition, certain of the Group's products utilise components that are developed by third parties and licensed to the Group. If claims alleging patent, copyright or trademark infringement are brought against such licensors and successfully prosecuted, they could result in substantial costs, and the Group may not be able to replace the functions provided by these licensors. Alternate sources for the technology currently licensed to the Group may not be available in a timely manner, may not provide the same functions as currently provided or may be more expensive than products currently used.

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 23 – Hogan Lovells

------

The Group may develop proprietary information through the Group's in-house research and development efforts, consulting arrangements or research collaborations with other entities or organisations. The Group may seek to protect this proprietary information by entering into confidentiality agreements or consulting, services or employment agreements that contain non-disclosure and non-use provisions with the Group's employees, consultants, scientific advisors and other third parties. However, the Group may fail to enter into the necessary agreements, and even if entered into, these agreements may be breached or may otherwise fail to prevent disclosure, third-party infringement or misappropriation of the Group's proprietary information.

***The Group may not be able to respond quickly enough to changes in technology and technological risks and to develop the Group's intellectual property into commercially viable products***

Changes in legislative, regulatory, or industry requirements or in competitive technologies may render certain of the Group's products obsolete or less attractive to the Group's customers. The Group currently licenses certain proprietary technology to third parties and, if such technology becomes obsolete or less attractive, those licensees could terminate the Group's licence agreements, which could adversely affect the Group's operating results. The Group's ability to anticipate changes in technology and regulatory standards and to successfully develop and introduce new and enhanced products on a timely basis will be a significant factor in the Group's ability to remain competitive. The Group cannot provide assurance that the Group will be able to achieve the technological advances that may be necessary for the Group to remain competitive or that certain of the Group's products will not become obsolete. The Group is also subject to the risks generally associated with new product introductions and applications, including lack of market acceptance, delays in product development and failure of products to operate properly. As part of the Group's business strategy, the Group may from time to time seek to acquire businesses or assets that provide the Group with additional intellectual property. The Group may experience problems integrating acquired technologies into the Group's existing technologies and products, and such acquired intellectual property may be subject to known or contingent liabilities such as infringement claims.

***Some of the Group's products and technologies may use "open source" software, which may restrict how the Group use or distribute the Group's products or require that the Group releases the source code of certain products subject to those licenses***

Some of the Group's products and technologies may incorporate software licensed under so-called "open source" licenses. In addition to risks related to licence requirements, usage of open source software can lead to greater risks than use of third-party commercial software, as open source licensors generally do not provide warranties or controls on origin of the software. Additionally, open source licenses typically require that source code subject to the licence be made available to the public and that any modifications or derivative works to open source software continue to be licensed under open source licenses. These open source licenses typically mandate that proprietary software, when combined in specific ways with open source software, become subject to the open source licence. If the Group combines the Group's proprietary software in such ways with open source software, the Group could be required to release the source code of the Group's proprietary software. The Group takes steps to ensure that the Group's proprietary software is not combined with, and does not incorporate, open source software in ways that would require the Group's proprietary software to be subject to an open source licence. However, few courts have interpreted open source licenses; therefore the way these licenses may be interpreted and enforced is subject to some uncertainty.

**Risks related to Government Regulations and Taxes**

***The Group's business may be adversely affected by laws or regulations, including environmental, occupational health and safety, and other governmental regulations***

The Group is subject to various federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations, including those related to environmental, occupational health and safety, financial, and other requirements. The Group cannot predict the substance or impact of pending or future legislation or regulations, or the application thereof. The introduction of new laws or regulations, changes in existing laws or regulations, or changes in their interpretation, could increase

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 24 – Hogan Lovells

------

the costs of doing business for the Group, the Group's customers or suppliers or restrict the Group's actions and adversely affect the Group's business, operating results, cash flows and financial condition. The Group's operations are subject to environmental and safety laws and regulations governing, among other things, emissions to air, discharges to waters and the generation, handling, storage, transportation, treatment and disposal of waste and other materials. Operating automotive parts manufacturing facilities entails risks in these areas, and the Group cannot assure that the Group will not incur material costs or liabilities as a result. Additionally, environmental laws, regulations, and permits and the enforcement thereof change frequently and have tended to become increasingly stringent over time, which may necessitate substantial capital expenditures or operating costs or require changes of production processes. Although the Group has no known pending material environmental issues, there is no assurance that the Group will not be adversely impacted by environmental costs, liabilities, or claims in the future, whether under existing laws and regulations or those adopted or imposed in the future. The Group's costs, liabilities, and obligations relating to environmental matters may have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, operating results, cash flows and financial condition.

The Group's facilities in the U.S. are subject to regulation by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration ("**OSHA**"), which oversees the protection of worker health and safety. In addition, the OSHA hazard communication standard requires that the Group maintains information about hazardous materials used or produced in the Group's operations and provides this information to employees, state and local governmental authorities and residents. The Group is also subject to occupational safety regulations in other countries. The Group's failure to comply with government occupational safety regulations, including OSHA requirements, or general industry standards relating to employee health and safety, recordkeeping, or monitoring occupational exposure to regulated substances could expose the Group to liability, enforcement actions, fines and penalties, and could have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, operating results, cash flows and financial condition.

Although the Group employs safety procedures in the design and operation of the Group's facilities, there is a risk that an accident or injury to one of the Group's employees could occur in one of the Group's facilities. Any accident or injury to the Group's employees could result in litigation, manufacturing delays and harm to the Group's reputation, which could negatively affect the Group's business, operating results, and financial condition.

***The Group's business may be adversely affected by changes in automotive safety regulations or concerns that drive further regulation of the automobile safety market***

Government vehicle safety regulations are a key driver in the Group's business. Historically, these regulations have imposed increasingly stringent safety requirements for vehicles. Such regulations have a positive impact on driver awareness and acceptance of automotive safety products and technology. More stringent safety regulations often require vehicles to include more safety CPV and more advanced safety products, which has been a driver of growth in the Group's business.

However, these regulations are subject to change based on a number of factors outside the Group's control, including new scientific or medical data, adverse publicity regarding the industry recalls and safety risks associated with airbags or seatbelts (for example, risks to children and small adults), domestic and foreign political developments or considerations, and litigation relating to the Group's products and the Group's competitors' products. Changes in government regulations in response to these and other factors could have a severe impact on the Group's business. Although the Group believes that safety will continue to be a regulatory priority over time, if government priorities shift and the Group is unable to adapt to changing regulations, the Group's business may suffer material adverse effects.

The regulatory obligations could increase as federal and local regulators impose more stringent compliance and reporting requirements in response to product recalls and safety issues in the Group's industry. The Group is subject to existing stringent requirements under the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act of 1966 (the "**Vehicle Safety Act**"), including a duty to report safety defects with the Group's products, subject to strict timing requirements. The Vehicle Safety Act imposes potentially significant civil penalties for violations including the failure to comply with such reporting obligations. The Group is also subject to the existing U.S. Transportation Recall

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 25 – Hogan Lovells

------

Enhancement, Accountability and Documentation (TREAD) Act, which requires equipment manufacturers, such as the Issuer, to comply with "Early Warning" reporting requirements ("**TREAD**") by providing NHTSA with certain information, including information related to defects or reports of injury related to the Group's products. TREAD imposes criminal liability for violations if a defect subsequently causes death or bodily injury. In addition, the Vehicle Safety Act authorises NHTSA to require a manufacturer to recall and repair vehicles that contain safety defects or fail to comply with U.S. federal motor vehicle safety standards. Sales into foreign countries may be subject to similar regulations.

Due to the record recall of airbag inflators of one of the Group's competitors, NHTSA has become more active in requesting information from suppliers and vehicle manufactures regarding potential product defects.

***Negative or unexpected tax developments could adversely affect the Group's effective tax rate, operating results and financial condition*** 

Changes in, or changes in the application of, U.S. or foreign tax laws, regulations or accounting principles with respect to matters such as tax base, tax rates, transfer pricing, dividends and restrictions on certain forms of tax relief or limitations on favourable tax treatment could affect the calculation of the Group's income taxes and other tax liabilities, the Group's effective tax rate, and the carrying value of the Group's deferred tax assets.

The Group's annual tax rate is based on the Group's income and the tax laws in the jurisdictions in which the Group operates. Due to the Group's global operations the Group faces uncertainties and judgments in the application of complex tax regulations in a multitude of jurisdictions. Significant judgment and estimation are required in determining the Group's effective tax rate and in evaluating the Group's tax positions, in many cases where the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. Although the Group believes that the Group's tax estimates are reasonable, the final determination of the Group's tax liability may be different from what is reflected in the Group's historical income tax provisions and accruals.

The Group is regularly examined by tax authorities around the world and in a number of jurisdictions, the Group is currently under examination, which inherently creates uncertainty. Although the Group periodically assesses the likelihood of adverse outcomes, negative or unexpected results from one or more of such reviews and audits, including any related interest or penalties imposed by governmental authorities, could increase the Group's effective tax rate and adversely impact the Group's operating results, cash flows and financial condition. For example, the Group is currently in the early stages of a dispute with the Mexican tax authorities in relation to various issues connected to certain manufacturing activities that occur in Mexico. An adverse result in this or other similar disputes could have a materially negative impact on the Group's financial results.

The effective tax rates used for interim reporting are based on the Group's projected full-year geographic earnings mix and take into account projected tax costs on intercompany dividends from lower tier subsidiaries. Changes in currency exchange rates, earnings mix among taxing jurisdictions, or the ability of the Group's subsidiaries to pay dividends could impact the Group's reported effective tax rates, or cause fluctuations in the tax rate from quarter to quarter. Certain anti-trust judgments or settlements may not be tax deductible, which could have a material negative impact to the Group's annual tax rate.

A number of other factors may also increase the Group's effective tax rate, which could have an adverse impact on the Group's profitability and operating results. Due to the Group's numerous foreign operations, the Group's tax rate may be impacted by the Group's global mix of earnings if the Group's pre-tax income is lower than anticipated in countries with lower statutory tax rates and/or is higher than anticipated in countries with higher statutory tax rates. Based on U.S.GAAP, the Group does not record current or deferred tax liabilities on permanent investments in the Issuer's foreign subsidiaries.

***The Group may not be able to fully realise the Group's deferred tax assets***

The Group currently carries deferred tax assets, net of valuation allowances, resulting from deductible temporary differences and tax loss carry-forwards, both of which will reduce taxable income in the future. However, deferred tax assets may only be realised against taxable income. The amount of the Group's deferred tax assets could be reduced, from time to time, due to adverse changes in the Group's operations or in estimates of future taxable income from operations during the carry-forward period as a result of deterioration in market conditions or other circumstances. Any such reduction would adversely affect the Group's income in the period of the adjustment. Additional information on the Group's deferred tax assets is included in Note 5 (*Income Taxes*) to the 2025 Consolidated Financial Statements.

***The audited consolidated financial information included in this Base Listing Particulars includes both the Guarantor and non-guarantor companies***

The audited consolidated financial information incorporated by reference and/or appearing herein includes and consolidates both Guarantor and non-guarantor companies and, accordingly, the financial information may be of limited use in assessing the financial position of the Guarantor. See "*General Information – Information relating to the Guarantor*" for further information.

**Risks applicable to all Notes** 

***If the Issuer has the right to redeem any Notes at its option, this may limit the market value of the Notes concerned and an investor may not be able to reinvest the redemption proceeds in a manner which achieves a similar effective return***

An optional redemption feature is likely to limit the market value of Notes. During any period when the Issuer may elect to redeem Notes, the market value of those Notes generally will not rise substantially above the price at which they can be redeemed. This also may be true prior to any redemption period.

The Issuer may be expected to redeem Notes when its cost of borrowing is lower than the interest rate on the Notes. At those times, an investor generally would not be able to reinvest the redemption proceeds at an effective interest rate as high as the interest rate on the Notes being redeemed and may only be able to do so at a significantly lower rate. Potential investors should consider reinvestment risk in light of other investments available at that time.

***If the Notes include a feature to convert the interest basis from a fixed rate to a floating rate, or vice versa, this may affect the secondary market and the market value of the Notes concerned***

Fixed/Floating Rate Notes are Notes which bear interest at a rate that converts from a fixed rate to a floating rate, or from a floating rate to a fixed rate. Such a feature to convert the interest basis, and any conversion of the interest basis, may negatively affect the secondary market in, and the market value of, such Notes as the change of interest basis may result in a lower interest return for Noteholders. Where the Notes convert from a fixed rate to a floating rate, the spread on the Fixed/Floating Rate Notes may be less favourable than then prevailing spreads on comparable floating rate debt securities based on the same reference rate (and with otherwise comparable terms). In addition, the new floating rate at any time may be lower than the rates on other Notes. Where the Notes convert from a floating rate to a fixed rate, the fixed rate may be lower than then prevailing rates on those Notes and could affect the market value of an investment in the relevant Notes.

***The Global Notes are held by or on behalf of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg, meaning investors will have to rely on their procedures for transfer, payment and communication with the Issuer***

The Global Notes will initially be deposited with a common depositary or the common safekeeper, as applicable for Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg and registered in the name of the nominee for such common depository or common safekeeper. Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg will maintain records of the beneficial interests in the Global Notes. Global Notes held on behalf of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg will be transferable only in

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 27 – Hogan Lovells

------

accordance with the rules and procedures for the time being of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be.

While the Notes are represented by the Global Notes, the Issuer will discharge its payment obligations under the Notes by making payments to or to the order of the person shown on the Register as the registered holder of the Global Notes. A holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note must rely on the procedures of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg to receive payments under the Notes. None of the Issuer, the Guarantor, any Paying Agent or the Registrar will have any responsibility or liability for the records relating to, or payments made in respect of, beneficial interests in the Global Notes. Holders of beneficial interests in the Global Notes will not have a direct right to vote in respect of the Notes. Instead, such Noteholders will be permitted to act only to the extent that they are enabled by Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg.

**Risks applicable to certain types of Notes** 

***There are particular risks associated with an investment in certain types of Notes, such as Index Linked Notes and Dual Currency Notes. In particular, an investor might receive less interest than expected or no interest in respect of such Notes and may lose some or all of the principal amount invested by it***

The Issuer may issue Notes with principal or interest payable in respect of the Notes being determined by reference to an index or formula, to changes in the prices of securities or commodities, to movements in currency exchange rates or other factors (each, a "**Relevant Factor**"). In addition, the Issuer may issue Notes with principal or interest payable in one or more currencies which may be different from the currency in which the Notes are denominated. Potential investors should be aware that:

(i) the market price of such Notes may be volatile;

(ii) they may receive no interest;

(iii) payment of principal or interest may occur at a different time or in a different currency than expected;

(iv) they may lose all or a substantial portion of their principal;

(v) a Relevant Factor may be subject to significant fluctuations that may not correlate with changes in interest rates, currencies or other indices;

(vi) the effect of any multiplier or leverage factor that is applied to the Relevant Factor is that the impact of any changes in the Relevant Factor on the amounts of principal or interest payable will be magnified; and

(vii) the timing of changes in a Relevant Factor may affect the actual yield to investors, even if the average level is consistent with their expectations. In general, the earlier the change in the Relevant Factor, the greater the effect on yield.

The historical experience of an index or other Relevant Factor should not be viewed as an indication of the future performance of such Relevant Factor during the term of any Notes. Accordingly, each potential investor should consult its own financial and legal advisers about the risk entailed by an investment in any Notes linked to a Relevant Factor and the suitability of such Notes in light of its particular circumstances.

***Where Notes are issued on a partly-paid basis, an investor who fails to pay any subsequent instalment of the issue price could lose all of its investment***

The Issuer may issue Notes where the issue price is payable in more than one instalment. Any failure by an investor to pay any subsequent instalment of the issue price in respect of its Notes could result in such investor losing all of its investment.

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 28 – Hogan Lovells

------

***Notes which are issued with variable interest rates or which are structured to include a multiplier or other leverage factor are likely to have more volatile market values than more standard securities***

Notes with variable interest rates can be volatile investments. If they are structured to include multipliers or other leverage factors, or caps or floors, or any combination of those features or other similar related features, their market values may be even more volatile than those for securities that do not include those features.

***Notes issued at a substantial discount or premium may experience price volatility in response to changes in market interest rates*** 

The market values of securities issued at a substantial discount or premium to their nominal amount tend to fluctuate more in relation to general changes in interest rates than do prices for conventional interest-bearing securities. Generally, the longer the remaining term of the securities, the greater the price volatility as compared to conventional interest-bearing securities with comparable maturities.

***Movements in market interest rates can adversely affect the value of Notes which bear interest at a fixed rate***

The Notes may bear interest at a fixed interest rate. A holder of a security with a fixed interest rate is exposed to the risk that the value of such security could fall as a result of changes in the market interest rate. While the nominal compensation rate of a security with a fixed interest rate is fixed during the life of such security or during a certain period of time, the current interest rate on the capital market (market interest rate) typically changes on a daily basis. If the market interest rate increases, the value of such a security typically falls, until the yield of such security is approximately equal to the market interest rate. If the market interest rate falls, the value of a security with a fixed interest rate typically increases, until the yield of such a security is approximately equal to the market interest rate. Consequently, the Noteholders should be aware that movements of the market interest rate can adversely affect the value of the Notes and can lead to losses for the Noteholders if they sell their Notes.

***The regulation and reform of benchmarks may adversely affect the value of Notes linked to or referencing such benchmarks*** 

Interest rates and indices which are deemed to be benchmarks, (such as, in the case of Floating Rate Notes, a reference rate) are the subject of recent national and international regulatory guidance and reform aimed at supporting the transition to robust benchmarks. Most reforms have now reached their planned conclusion (including the transition away from LIBOR), and "benchmarks" remain subject to ongoing monitoring. These reforms may cause such benchmarks to perform differently than in the past, to disappear entirely, or have other consequences which cannot be predicted. Any such consequence could have a material adverse effect on any Notes linked to or referencing such a benchmark. Regulation (EU) 2016/1011 (as amended) (the "**EU Benchmark Regulation**") was published in the Official Journal of the EU on 29 June 2016 and has applied since 1 January 2018. The EU Benchmark Regulation applies to the provision of benchmarks, the contribution of input data to a benchmark and the use of a benchmark within the EU. It will, among other things, (i) require benchmark administrators to be authorised or registered (or, if non-EU-based, to be subject to an equivalent regime or otherwise recognised or endorsed) and (ii) prevent certain uses by EU supervised entities of benchmarks of administrators that are not authorised or registered (or, if non-EU based, not deemed equivalent or recognised or endorsed). The EU Benchmark Regulation could have a material impact on any Notes linked to or referencing a benchmark, in particular, if the methodology or other terms of the benchmark are changed in order to comply with the requirements of the EU Benchmark Regulation. Such changes could, among other things, have the effect of reducing, increasing or otherwise affecting the volatility of the published rate or level of the benchmark.

Regulation (EU) No. 2016/1011 as it forms part of domestic law of the United Kingdom by virtue of the EUWA (the "**UK Benchmark Regulation**") applies to the provision of benchmarks, the contribution of input data to a benchmark and the use of a benchmark, within the UK. The UK Benchmark Regulation could have a material impact on any Notes linked to or referencing a benchmark, in particular, if the methodology or other terms of the benchmark are changed in order to comply with the requirements of the UK Benchmark Regulation. Such changes could, among

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 29 – Hogan Lovells

------

other things, have the effect of reducing, increasing or otherwise affecting the volatility of the published rate or level of the benchmark.

More broadly, any of the international or national reforms, or the general increased regulatory scrutiny of benchmarks, could increase the costs and risks of administering or otherwise participating in the setting of a benchmark and complying with any such regulations or requirements. Such factors may have the following effects on certain benchmarks (including SONIA and EURIBOR): (i) discourage market participants from continuing to administer or contribute to the benchmark; (ii) trigger changes in the rules or methodologies used in the benchmark or (iii) lead to the disappearance of the benchmark. Any of the above changes or any other consequential changes as a result of international or national reforms or other initiatives or investigations, could have a material adverse effect on the value of and return on any Notes linked to or referencing a benchmark.

Investors should consult their own independent advisers and make their own assessment about the potential risks imposed by the EU Benchmark Regulation or the UK Benchmark Regulation as applicable and similar or related reforms in making any investment decision with respect to any Notes linked to or referencing a benchmark.

***Future discontinuance of certain benchmarks (for example EURIBOR) may adversely affect the value of Notes linked to or referencing any such benchmark***

Workstreams are underway in Europe to reform EURIBOR using a hybrid methodology and to provide a fallback by reference to a euro risk-free rate (based on a euro overnight risk-free rate as adjusted by a methodology to create a term rate). On 13 September 2018, the working group on euro risk-free rates recommended Euro Short-term Rate (€STR) as the new risk free rate. €STR was first published by the ECB in October 2019.

Investors should be aware that, if a benchmark were discontinued or otherwise unavailable, the rate of interest on Floating Rate Notes which are linked to or which reference such benchmark will be determined for the relevant period by the fall-back provisions applicable to such Notes.

The Conditions provide for certain arrangements in the event that a published benchmark, such as EURIBOR, (including any page on which such benchmark may be published (or any successor service)) becomes unavailable or a Benchmark Event (as described in the Terms and Conditions) otherwise occurs.

If the circumstances described in the preceding paragraph occur and, in the case of Floating Rate Notes, Screen Rate Determination and Reference Rate Replacement are each specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement as applicable (any such Notes, "**Relevant Notes**"), such arrangements will include the possibility that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the relevant rate of interest could be set or, as the case may be, determined by reference to a successor rate or an alternative rate (as applicable) determined by an Independent Adviser; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) such successor rate or alternative rate (as applicable) may be adjusted (if required) by the relevant Independent Adviser in order to reduce or eliminate, to the extent reasonably practicable in the circumstances, any economic prejudice or benefit (as applicable) to investors arising out of the replacement of the relevant benchmark,

in any such case, acting in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner as described more fully in the Conditions.

In addition, the relevant Independent Adviser may also determine (acting in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner) that other amendments to the Conditions are necessary in order to follow market practice in

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 30 – Hogan Lovells

------

relation to the relevant successor rate or alternative rate (as applicable) and to ensure the proper operation of the relevant successor rate or alternative rate (as applicable).

No consent of the Noteholders shall be required in connection with effecting any relevant successor rate or alternative rate (as applicable) or any other related adjustments and/or amendments described above.

If (i) the Issuer is not able to appoint an Independent Adviser, (ii) the Independent Adviser appointed by the Issuer fails to make the necessary determination or (iii) the Notes are not Relevant Notes, the ultimate fallback of interest for a particular Interest Period (as defined in the Conditions) may result in the rate of interest for the last preceding Interest Period being used. This may result in the effective application of a fixed rate for Floating Rate Notes based on the rate which was last observed on the relevant screen page. In addition, due to the uncertainty concerning the availability of successor rates and alternative rates and the involvement of an Independent Adviser, the relevant fallback provisions may not operate as intended at the relevant time.

Any such consequences could have a material adverse effect on the value and return on any such Notes. Moreover, any of the above matters or any other significant change to the setting or existence of any relevant rate could affect the ability of the Issuer and the Guarantor to meet their obligations under the Floating Rate Notes or could have a material adverse effect on the value or liquidity of, and the amount payable under, the Floating Rate Notes. Investors should note that, in the case of Relevant Notes, the relevant Independent Adviser will have discretion to adjust the relevant successor rate or alternative rate (as applicable) in the circumstances described above. Any such adjustment could have unexpected commercial consequences and there can be no assurance that such an adjustment will be made or, due to the particular circumstances of each Noteholder, any such adjustment will be favourable to each Noteholder.

***The market continues to develop in relation to SONIA as a reference rate for Floating Rate Notes***

Investors should be aware that the market continues to develop in relation to SONIA as a reference rate in the capital markets and its adoption as an alternative to Sterling LIBOR. The market or a significant part thereof may adopt an application of SONIA that differs significantly from that set out in the Conditions and used in relation to Floating Rate Notes that reference a SONIA rate issued under this Programme. As SONIA is published and calculated by the Bank of England based on data received from other sources, the Issuer has no control over its determination, calculation or publication. There can be no guarantee that SONIA will not be discontinued or fundamentally altered in a manner that is materially adverse to the interests of investors in Floating Rate Notes linked to SONIA. If the manner in which SONIA is calculated is changed, that change may result in a reduction of the amount of interest payable on such Notes and the trading prices of such Notes.

The Issuer may in the future also issue Notes linked to or referencing SONIA that differ materially in terms of interest determination when compared with any previous SONIA linked/referenced Notes issued under the Programme. The nascent development of Compounded Daily SONIA as an interest reference rate for the Eurobond markets, as well as continued development of SONIA-based rates for such markets and market infrastructure for adopting such rates, could result in reduced liquidity or increased volatility or otherwise affect the market price of any SONIA-referenced Notes issued under the Programme. Interest on Notes referencing Compounded Daily SONIA is only capable of being determined at the end of the relevant Interest Period and immediately prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date. It may be difficult for investors in Notes that reference a SONIA rate to reliably estimate the amount of interest that will be payable on such Notes. Further, if the Notes become due and payable under Condition 10, the Rate of Interest applicable to the Notes shall be determined on the date the Notes became due and payable and shall not be reset thereafter. In addition, the manner of adoption or application of SONIA reference rates in the Eurobond markets may differ materially compared with the application and adoption of SONIA in other markets, such as the derivatives and loan markets.

Investors should carefully consider how any mismatch between the adoption of SONIA reference rates across these markets may impact any hedging or other financial arrangements which they may put in place in connection with

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 31 – Hogan Lovells

------

any acquisition, holding or disposal of any Notes referencing a SONIA rate. Investors should consider these matters when making their investment decision with respect to any such Notes.

Further, if SONIA does not prove to be widely used in securities like the Notes, the trading prices of Notes linked to or referencing SONIA may be lower than those of securities linked to reference rates that are more widely used. Investors in such Notes may not be able to sell such Notes at all or may not be able to sell such Notes at prices that will provide them with a yield comparable to similar investments that have a developed secondary market and may consequently suffer from increased pricing volatility and market risk.

Investors should consider all of these matters when making their investment decision with respect to the relevant Notes.

***A Dealer's potential conflict of interest whilst acting as a Calculation Agent***

The Issuer may appoint a Dealer as Calculation Agent in respect of an issuance of Notes under the Programme. In such a case, the Calculation Agent is likely to be a member of an international financial group that is involved, in the ordinary course of its business, in a wide range of banking activities out of which conflicting interests may arise. Whilst such a Calculation Agent will, where relevant, have information barriers and procedures in place to manage conflicts of interest, it may in its other banking activities from time to time be engaged in transactions involving an index or related derivatives which may affect amounts receivable by Noteholders during the term and on the maturity of the Notes or the market price, liquidity or value of the Notes and which could be deemed to be adverse to the interests of the Noteholders.

**Risks related to the Notes generally**

***The Conditions contain provisions which may permit their modification without the consent of all investors***

The Conditions of the Notes and the Agency Agreement (as defined in the Conditions) contain provisions for calling meetings of Noteholders to consider matters affecting their interests generally. These provisions permit certain defined majorities to make decisions that modify the conditions applicable to a particular Series (as defined in the Conditions) and that bind the holders of Notes issued under that Series including those holders who did not attend and/or vote at the relevant meeting and those Noteholders who voted in a manner contrary to the majority.

***The value of the Notes could be adversely affected by a change in law or administrative practice***

The Conditions are based on English law in effect as at the date of this Base Listing Particulars and the Issuer and Guarantor are incorporated in the United States. Any new statutes, ordinances and regulations, amendments to the legislation or changes in application of any relevant law (including any amendments to or changes in application of tax laws or regulations) after the date of this Base Listing Particulars may affect the Notes and/or have a material adverse effect on the Issuer's and/or the Guarantor's business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects, and, thereby, on the Issuer's and/or the Guarantor's ability to fulfil its obligations under the Notes as well as the market price and value of the Notes.

***Investors who hold less than the minimum Specified Denomination may be unable to sell their Notes and may be adversely affected if definitive Notes are subsequently required to be issued***

In relation to any issue of Notes which have denominations consisting of a minimum Specified Denomination plus one or more higher integral multiples of another smaller amount, it is possible that such Notes may be traded in amounts in excess of the minimum Specified Denomination that are not integral multiples of such minimum Specified Denomination. In such a case a Noteholder who, as a result of trading such amounts, holds an amount which is less than the minimum Specified Denomination in its account with the relevant clearing system would not be able to sell the remainder of such holding without first purchasing a principal amount of Notes at or in excess of the minimum Specified Denomination such that its holding amounts to a Specified Denomination. Further, a holder who, as a result of trading such amounts, holds an amount which is less than the minimum Specified Denomination in its account with the relevant clearing system at the relevant time may not receive a definitive Note in respect of

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 32 – Hogan Lovells

------

such holding (should definitive Notes be issued) and would need to purchase a principal amount of Notes at or in excess of the minimum Specified Denomination such that its holding amounts to a Specified Denomination.

If such Notes in definitive form are issued, Noteholders should be aware that definitive Notes which have a denomination that is not an integral multiple of the minimum Specified Denomination may be illiquid and difficult to trade.

***Notes issued as Sustainability Bonds under the Programme may not be a suitable investment for investors seeking to invest in green or other sustainable investments*** 

The Issuer may issue Sustainability Bonds under the Programme which are specified for "Eligible Projects" in the applicable Pricing Supplement. "Eligible Projects" are those which fall within the Eligible Categories set out in the Framework (as defined in *"Use of Proceeds"*) which is available on the Issuer's website (*https://www.autoliv.com/investors/debt/sustainable-financing-framework*). The Framework is not, nor shall it be deemed to be, incorporated in and/or form part of this Base Listing Particulars.

Prospective investors should have regard to the information set out in this Base Listing Particulars, the applicable Pricing Supplement and the Framework regarding such use of proceeds (or amounts equal thereto) and consult with their legal and other advisers before making an investment in any such Sustainability Bonds and must determine for themselves the relevance of such information for the purpose of any investment in such Sustainability Bonds together with any other investigation such investor deems necessary.

In connection with the issuance of Sustainability Bonds, Vigeo Eiris (an independent provider of environmental, social and governance research, ratings, and analysis) ("**VE**") has evaluated the Framework and has issued an independent opinion dated November 2021 (the "**Second-Party Opinion**") confirming that the "Eligible Projects" as described in the Framework are aligned with the Green Bond Principles, 2021 (with June 2022 Appendix 1), the Social Bond Principles, 2021 (with June 2022 Appendix 1) and the Sustainability Bond Guidelines, 2021 (as applicable) as administered by the International Capital Market Association (the "**ICMA**"). The Issuer may obtain additional or new second-party opinions and/or certificates during the life of the Programme, in which case it will update such information on its website (https://www.autoliv.com/investors/debt/sustainable-financing-framework). For the avoidance of doubt, any such opinion or certification (including, the Framework and the Second Party Opinion) is not, nor shall be deemed to be, incorporated in and/or form part of this Base Listing Particulars.

No assurance is given by the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Arranger, any Dealer or any of their respective affiliates or any other person that the use of such proceeds for any Eligible Projects will satisfy, whether in whole or in part, any present or future investor expectations or requirements as regards any investment criteria or guidelines with which such investor or its investments are required to comply, whether by any present or future applicable law or regulations or by its own by-laws or other governing rules or investment portfolio mandates, in particular with regard to any direct or indirect environmental, sustainability or social impact of any projects or uses, the subject of or related to, any Eligible Projects. Neither the Arranger nor any Dealer shall be responsible for the ongoing monitoring of the use of proceeds in respect of any such Sustainability Bonds.

Furthermore, it should be noted that there is currently no clearly-defined definition (legal, regulatory or otherwise) of, nor market consensus as to what constitutes, a "green", "social", "sustainable" or equivalently-labelled project or loan that may finance such project, or as to what precise attributes are required for a particular project or loan to be defined as "green", "social", "sustainable" or such other equivalent label, nor can any assurance be given that such a clear definition or consensus will develop over time or that, if such a definition, market consensus or label is developed in the future, any Sustainability Bonds will comply with such definition, market consensus or label.

A basis for the determination of such a definition has been established in the EU with the publication in the Official Journal of the EU on 22 June 2020 of Regulation (EU) 2020/852 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 June 2020 (the "**Taxonomy Regulation**") on the establishment of a framework to facilitate sustainable investment

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 33 – Hogan Lovells

------

(the "**EU Taxonomy**"). The EU Taxonomy is subject to further development by way of the implementation by the European Commission through the formal adoption of delegated regulations of technical screening criteria for the environmental objectives set out in the Taxonomy Regulation. On 21 April 2021, the European Commission approved the first delegated act and the Delegated Regulation supplementing Regulation (EU) 2020/852 of the European Parliament and of the Council (the "**EU Taxonomy Climate Delegated Act**") was formally adopted on 4 June 2021. The EU Taxonomy Climate Delegated Act is aimed at supporting sustainable investment by making it clear which economic activities most contribute to the EU's environmental objectives. The EU Taxonomy Climate Delegated Act sets out criteria for economic activities in the sectors that are most relevant for achieving climate neutrality and delivering on climate change adaptation. This includes sectors such as energy, forestry, manufacturing, transport and buildings. Criteria for other environmental objectives will follow in a later delegated act, in line with mandates in the Taxonomy Regulation. Until all criteria for such objectives have been developed and disclosed it is not known whether any Eligible Projects will satisfy those criteria. Accordingly, alignment with the EU Taxonomy, once all criteria is established, is not certain.

Other legislative and voluntary bases for determining what is "green", "social" or "sustainable" (or any equivalent label) have been or are being developed internationally. On 28 November 2022, the Council of the EU formally adopted the EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive ("**CSRD**"), a major update of the Non-Financial Reporting Directive (Directive 2014/95/EU), which is the current EU sustainability reporting framework. CSRD disclosures will be based on a common framework of European Sustainability Reporting Standards ("**ESRS**") that are currently being developed by the European Financial Reporting Advisory Group. Regulation EU (2023/2631) on European Green Bonds and optional disclosures for bonds marketed as environmentally sustainable and for sustainability-linked bonds ("**Eu GB Regulation**") was published in the Official Journal of the European Union on 30 November 2023, entered into force on 20 December 2023 and has applied from 21 December 2024. Notes issued as Sustainability Bonds will not be compliant with the Eu GB Regulation and are only intended to comply with the requirements and processes in the Framework. It is not clear if the establishment under the Eu GB Regulation of the "European Green Bond" or "EuGB" label and the optional disclosures regime for bonds issued as "environmentally sustainable" could have an impact on investor demand for, and pricing of, green use of proceeds bonds that do not comply with the requirement of the "EuGB" label or the optional disclosures regime, such as the Sustainability Bonds. It could result in reduced liquidity or lower demand or could otherwise affect the market price of any Sustainability Bonds that do not comply with those standards proposed under the Eu GB Regulation.

The Issuer will not necessarily seek compliance of Eligible Projects or the Notes with all or any of the rules, guidelines, standards, taxonomies, principles or objectives published or enacted from time to time by the EU or any other jurisdiction including, if applicable the CSDR or ESRS). Accordingly, no assurance is or can be given by the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Arranger, any Dealer or any of their respective affiliates or any other person to investors that any projects or uses the subject of, or related to, any Eligible Projects will meet any or all investor expectations regarding such "green", "social", "sustainable" or other equivalently-labelled performance objectives or that any adverse environmental, social and/or other impacts will not occur during the implementation of any projects or uses the subject of, or related to, any Eligible Projects. In addition, no assurance can be given by the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Arranger, any Dealer or any of their respective affiliates or any other person to investors that any Sustainability Bonds will comply with any present or future standards or requirements regarding any "green", "social", "sustainable" or other equivalently-labelled performance objectives and, accordingly, the status of any Sustainability Bonds as being "green", "social", "sustainable" (or equivalent) could be withdrawn at any time.

No assurance or representation is given by the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Arranger, any Dealer or any of their respective affiliates or any other person as to the suitability or reliability for any purpose whatsoever of any opinion, report or certification of any third party (whether or not solicited by the Issuer and/or the Guarantor) (including, without limitation, the Second-Party Opinion) which may or may not be made available in connection with the issue of any Sustainability Bonds and in particular with any Eligible Projects to fulfil any environmental, sustainability,

social and/or other criteria. For the avoidance of doubt, any such opinion, report or certification is not, nor shall it be deemed to be, incorporated in and/or form part of this Base Listing Particulars.

Any such opinion, report or certification is not, nor should it be deemed to be, a recommendation by the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Arranger, any Dealer, or any of their respective affiliates or any other person to buy, sell or hold any such Sustainability Bonds. Any such opinion, report or certification is only current as at the date that opinion, report or certification was initially issued. Prospective investors must determine for themselves the relevance of any such opinion, report or certification and/or the information contained therein and/or the provider of such opinion, report or certification for the purpose of any investment in such Sustainability Bonds. Currently, the providers of such opinions, reports and certifications are not subject to any specific regulatory or other regime or oversight. Investors in such Sustainability Bonds shall have no recourse against the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Arranger, any Dealer or any of their respective affiliates or the provider of any such opinion, report or certification for the contents of any such opinion, report or certification.

In the event that any such Sustainability Bonds are listed or admitted to trading on any dedicated "green", "environmental", "sustainable" or other equivalently-labelled segment of any stock exchange or securities market (whether or not regulated), no representation or assurance is given by the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Arranger, any Dealer, or any of their respective affiliates, or any other person that such listing or admission satisfies, whether in whole or in part, any present or future investor expectations or requirements as regards any investment criteria or guidelines with which such investor or its investments are required to comply, whether by any present or future applicable law or regulations or by its own by-laws or other governing rules or investment portfolio mandates, in particular with regard to any direct or indirect environmental, sustainability or social impact of any projects or uses, the subject of or related to, any Eligible Projects. Furthermore, it should be noted that the criteria for any such listings or admission to trading may vary from one stock exchange or securities market to another. Nor is any representation or assurance given or made by the Issuer, the Guarantor or any of their respective affiliates, or any other person that any such listing or admission to trading will be obtained in respect of any such Sustainability Bonds or, if obtained, that any such listing or admission to trading will be maintained during the life of the Sustainability Bonds.

While it is the intention of the Issuer to apply the proceeds (or amounts equal thereto) of any Sustainability Bonds so specified for Eligible Projects in, or substantially in, the manner described in the Framework and this Base Listing Particulars and/or applicable Pricing Supplement, there can be no assurance that the relevant project(s) or use(s) the subject of, or related to, any Eligible Projects will be capable of being implemented in, or substantially in, such manner and/or in accordance with any timing schedule and that accordingly such proceeds will be totally or partially disbursed for such Eligible Projects. Nor can there be any assurance that such Eligible Projects will be completed within any specified period or at all or with the results or outcome (whether or not related to the environment) as originally expected or anticipated by the Issuer. Any such event or failure by the Issuer will not (i) give rise to any claim of a Noteholder against the Issuer, (ii) constitute an Event of Default under the Sustainability Bonds or (iii) lead to an obligation of the Issuer to redeem such Sustainability Bonds. While any such proceeds remain unallocated, the Issuer will hold the proceeds in cash and/or invest in other short-term liquid instruments.

Any such event or failure to apply the proceeds of any issue of Sustainability Bonds for any Eligible Projects as aforesaid and/or withdrawal of any such opinion or certification or any such opinion or certification attesting that the Issuer is not complying in whole or in part with any matters for which such opinion or certification is opining or certifying on and/or any such Sustainability Bonds no longer being listed or admitted to trading on any stock exchange or securities market as aforesaid may have a material adverse effect on the value of such Sustainability Bonds and also potentially the value of any other Sustainability Bonds which are intended to finance Eligible Projects and/or result in adverse consequences for certain investors with portfolio mandates to invest in securities to be used for a particular purpose.

The occurrence of any of the above factors may cause damage to the Issuer's reputation and may have a material adverse effect on the value of such Sustainability Bonds and also potentially the value of any other Notes and/or result in adverse consequences for certain investors with portfolio mandates to invest in securities to be used for

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 35 – Hogan Lovells

------

particular purpose (which consequences may include the need to sell such Sustainability Bonds as a result of such Notes not falling within the investor's investment criteria or mandate).

The payments of principal and interest (as the case may be) on the Sustainability Bonds shall not depend on the performance of the relevant Eligible Projects or any other environmental, sustainability or social targets of the Issuer, nor will any investors in the same have any preferred right against such assets.

Investors should refer to the Framework for further information.

**Risks related to the market generally**

***An active secondary market in respect of the Notes may never be established or may be illiquid and this would adversely affect the value at which an investor could sell its Notes***

The Notes may have no established trading market when issued, and one may never develop. If a market does develop, it may not be very liquid. Therefore, investors may not be able to sell their Notes easily or at prices that will provide them with a yield comparable to similar investments that have a developed secondary market. This is particularly the case for Notes that are especially sensitive to interest rate, currency or market risks, are designed for specific investment objectives or strategies or have been structured to meet the investment requirements of limited categories of investors. These types of Notes generally would have a more limited secondary market and more price volatility than conventional debt securities. Noteholders may not be able to sell Notes readily or at prices that will enable Noteholders to realise their anticipated yield. This could have a material adverse impact on the Noteholders and, as a result, Noteholders could lose all or part of their investment in the Notes.

***The value of the Notes depends on a number of economic, financial and political factors***

The value of the Notes depends on a number of interrelated factors, including economic, financial and political events in the United States or elsewhere, including factors affecting capital markets generally and the stock exchanges on which the Notes are traded. The price at which a Noteholder will be able to sell the Notes prior to maturity may be at a discount, which could be substantial, from the issue price or the purchase price paid by such Noteholder.

***If an investor holds Notes which are not denominated in the investor's home currency, they will be exposed to movements in exchange rates adversely affecting the value of its holding. In addition, the imposition of exchange controls in relation to any Notes could result in an investor not receiving payments on those Notes***

The Issuer will pay principal and interest on the Notes and the Guarantor will make any payments under the Guarantee in the Specified Currency. This presents certain risks relating to currency conversions if an investor's financial activities are denominated principally in a currency or currency unit (the "**Investor's Currency**") other than the Specified Currency. These include the risk that exchange rates may significantly change (including changes due to devaluation of the Specified Currency or revaluation of the Investor's Currency) and the risk that authorities with jurisdiction over the Investor's Currency may impose or modify exchange controls. An appreciation in the value of the Investor's Currency relative to the Specified Currency would decrease (1) the Investor's Currency-equivalent yield on the Notes, (2) the Investor's Currency equivalent value of the principal payable on the Notes and (3) the Investor's Currency equivalent market value of the Notes.

Government and monetary authorities may impose (as some have done in the past) exchange controls that could adversely affect an applicable exchange rate or the ability of the Issuer or the Guarantor to make payments in respect of the Notes. As a result, investors may receive less interest or principal than expected, or no interest or principal.

***Legal investment considerations may restrict certain investments***

The investment activities of certain investors are subject to legal investment laws and regulations, or review or regulation by certain authorities. Each potential investor should consult its legal advisers to determine whether and to what extent (1) the Notes are legal investments for it, (2) the Notes can be used as collateral for various types of borrowing and (3) other restrictions apply to its purchase or pledge of the Notes. Financial institutions should consult

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 36 – Hogan Lovells

------

their legal advisers or the appropriate regulators to determine the appropriate treatment of the Notes under any applicable risk-based capital or similar rules.

***Credit ratings may not reflect all risks*** 

One or more independent credit rating agencies may assign credit ratings to the Notes. The ratings may not reflect the potential impact of all risks related to the structure of the Notes and additional factors discussed in this Base Listing Particulars or any other factors that may affect the value of the Notes. A credit rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be revised, suspended or withdrawn by the rating agency at any time.

In general, European regulated investors are restricted under the EU CRA Regulation from using credit ratings for regulatory purposes in the EEA, unless such ratings are issued by a credit rating agency established in the EEA and registered under the EU CRA Regulation (and such registration has not been withdrawn or suspended, subject to transitional provisions that apply in certain circumstances). Such general restriction will also apply in the case of credit ratings issued by third country non-EEA credit rating agencies, unless the relevant credit ratings are endorsed by an EEA-registered credit rating agency or the relevant third country rating agency is certified in accordance with the EU CRA Regulation (and such endorsement action or certification, as the case may be, has not been withdrawn or suspended, subject to transitional provisions that apply in certain circumstances). The list of registered and certified rating agencies published by the European Securities and Markets Authority ("**ESMA"**) on its website in accordance with the EU CRA Regulation is not conclusive evidence of the status of the relevant rating agency included in such list, as there may be delays between certain supervisory measures being taken against a relevant rating agency and the publication of the updated ESMA list.

Investors regulated in the UK are subject to similar restrictions under the UK CRA Regulation. As such, UK regulated investors are required to use for UK regulatory purposes ratings issued by a credit rating agency established in the UK and registered under the UK CRA Regulation. In the case of ratings issued by third country non-UK credit rating agencies, third country credit ratings can either be: (a) endorsed by a UK registered credit rating agency; or (b) issued by a third country credit rating agency that is certified in accordance with the UK CRA Regulation. Note this is subject, in each case, to (a) the relevant UK registration, certification or endorsement, as the case may be, not having been withdrawn or suspended, and (b) transitional provisions that apply in certain circumstances. In the case of third country ratings, for a certain limited period of time, transitional relief accommodates continued use for regulatory purposes in the UK, of existing pre-2021 ratings, provided the relevant conditions are satisfied.

If the status of the rating agency rating the Notes changes for the purposes of the EU CRA Regulation or the UK CRA Regulation, relevant regulated investors may no longer be able to use the rating for regulatory purposes in the EEA or the UK, as applicable, and the Notes may have a different regulatory treatment. This may result in relevant regulated investors selling the Notes which may impact the value of the Notes and any secondary market.

*The following are the Terms and Conditions of the Notes which will be incorporated by reference into each Global Note (as defined below) and each definitive Note, in the latter case only if permitted by the relevant stock exchange or other relevant authority (if any) and agreed by the Issuer and the relevant Dealer at the time of issue but, if not so permitted and agreed, such definitive Note will have endorsed thereon or attached thereto such Terms and Conditions. The applicable Pricing Supplement in relation to any Tranche of Notes may specify other terms and conditions which shall, to the extent so specified or to the extent inconsistent with the following Terms and Conditions, replace or modify the following Terms and Conditions for the purpose of such Notes.

The Notes have the benefit of an amended and restated Agency Agreement (such Agency Agreement as amended and/or supplemented and/or restated from time to time, the "**Agency Agreement**") dated 22 February 2022 and made between the Issuer, Autoliv ASP, Inc. (the "**Guarantor**") as guarantor, Citibank Europe Plc as issuing and fiscal agent (the "**Fiscal Agent**", which expression shall include any successor fiscal agent) and the other paying agents named therein (together with the Fiscal Agent, the "**Paying Agents**", which expression shall include any additional or successor paying agents), Citibank Europe Plc as registrar (the "**Registrar**", which expression shall include any successor registrar) and a transfer agent and the other transfer agents named therein (together with the Registrar, the "**Transfer Agents**", which expression shall include any additional or successor transfer agents). The Fiscal Agent, the Calculation Agent (if any is specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement), the Registrar, the Paying Agents and other Transfer Agents are together referred to as the "**Agents**".

References to the "**applicable Pricing Supplement**" are, unless otherwise stated, to Part A of the Pricing Supplement (or the relevant provisions thereof) attached to or endorsed on this Note.

The payment of all amounts in respect of this Note have been guaranteed by the Guarantor pursuant to a Guarantee (such Guarantee, as modified and/or supplemented and/or restated from time to time, the "**Guarantee**") dated 22 February 2022 and executed by the Guarantor. The original of the Guarantee is held by the Fiscal Agent on behalf of the Noteholders at its specified office.

Any reference to "**Noteholders**" or "**holders**" in relation to any Notes shall mean the persons in whose name the Notes are registered and shall, in relation to any Notes represented by a Global Note, be construed as provided below.

As used herein, "**Tranche**" means Notes which are identical in all respects (including as to listing and admission to trading) and "**Series**" means a Tranche of Notes together with any further Tranche or Tranches of Notes which (a) are expressed to be consolidated and form a single series and (b) have the same terms and conditions or terms and

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 39 – Hogan Lovells

------

conditions which are the same in all respects save for the amount and date of the first payment of interest thereon and the date from which interest starts to accrue.

The Noteholders are entitled to the benefit of the Deed of Covenant (such Deed of Covenant as modified and/or supplemented and/or restated from time to time, the "**Deed of Covenant**") dated 22 February 2022 and made by the Issuer.

Copies of the Agency Agreement, the Guarantee and the Deed of Covenant are available for inspection during normal business hours at the specified office of each of the Paying Agents or may be provided by email to a Noteholder following their prior written request to any Paying Agent and provision of proof of holding and identity (in a form satisfactory to the relevant Paying Agent).

The Noteholders are deemed to have notice of, and are entitled to the benefit of, all the provisions of the Agency Agreement, the Guarantee, the Deed of Covenant and the applicable Pricing Supplement which are applicable to them. The statements in the Conditions include summaries of, and are subject to, the detailed provisions of the Agency Agreement.

Words and expressions defined in the Agency Agreement or used in the applicable Pricing Supplement shall have the same meanings where used in the Conditions unless the context otherwise requires or unless otherwise stated and provided that, in the event of inconsistency between the Agency Agreement and the applicable Pricing Supplement, the applicable Pricing Supplement will prevail.

In the Conditions, **euro** means the currency introduced at the start of the third stage of European economic and monetary union pursuant to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, as amended.

**1. FORM, DENOMINATION AND TITLE**

The Notes are in registered form in the currency (the "**Specified Currency**") and the denominations (the "**Specified Denomination(s)**") specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement. Notes of one Specified Denomination may not be exchanged for Notes of another Specified Denomination.

This Note may be a Fixed Rate Note, a Floating Rate Note, a Zero Coupon Note, an Index Linked Interest Note, a Dual Currency Interest Note or a combination of any of the foregoing, depending upon the Interest Basis shown in the applicable Pricing Supplement.

This Note may also be an Index Linked Redemption Note, an Instalment Note, a Dual Currency Redemption Note, a Partly Paid Note or a combination of any of the foregoing, depending upon the Redemption/Payment Basis shown in the applicable Pricing Supplement.

Subject as set out below, title to the Notes will pass upon registration of transfers in accordance with the provisions of the Agency Agreement. The Issuer, the Guarantor and any Agent will (except as otherwise required by law) deem and treat the registered holder of any Note as the absolute owner thereof (whether or not overdue and notwithstanding any notice of ownership or writing thereon or notice of any previous loss or theft thereof) for all purposes but, in the case of any Global Note, without prejudice to the provisions set out in the next succeeding paragraph.

For so long as any Note is represented by a Global Note held on behalf of Euroclear Bank SA/NV ("**Euroclear**") and/or Clearstream Banking S.A. ("**Clearstream, Luxembourg**"), each person (other than Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg) who is for the time being shown in the records of Euroclear or of Clearstream, Luxembourg as the holder of a particular nominal amount of such Notes (in which regard any certificate or other document issued by Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg as to the nominal amount of such Notes standing to the account of any person shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes save in the case of manifest error) shall be treated by the Issuer, the Guarantor and the Agents as the holder of such nominal amount of such Notes for all purposes other than with respect to the payment of principal or interest on such nominal amount of such Notes, for which purpose the registered holder of the relevant Global Note

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 40 – Hogan Lovells

------

shall be treated by the Issuer, the Guarantor and any Agent as the holder of such nominal amount of such Notes in accordance with and subject to the terms of the relevant Global Note and the expressions "**Noteholder**" and "**holder of Notes**" and related expressions shall be construed accordingly.

Notes which are represented by a Global Note will be transferable only in accordance with the rules and procedures for the time being of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be. References to Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg shall, whenever the context so permits, be deemed to include a reference to any additional or alternative clearing system specified in Part B of the applicable Pricing Supplement.

**2. Transfers of Notes** 

2.1 **Transfers of interests in Global Notes**

Transfers of beneficial interests in Global Notes will be effected by Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be, and, in turn, by other participants and, if appropriate, indirect participants in such clearing systems acting on behalf of transferors and transferees of such interests. A beneficial interest in a Global Note will, subject to compliance with all applicable legal and regulatory restrictions, be transferable for Notes in definitive form or for a beneficial interest in another Global Note of the same series only in the authorised denominations set out in the applicable Pricing Supplement and only in accordance with the rules and operating procedures for the time being of Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be, and in accordance with the terms and conditions specified in the Agency Agreement.

2.2 **Transfers of Notes in definitive form**

Subject as provided in paragraph 2.3 below, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Agency Agreement, a Note in definitive form may be transferred in whole or in part (in the authorised denominations set out in the applicable Pricing Supplement). In order to effect any such transfer (a) the holder or holders must (i) surrender the Note for registration of the transfer of the Note (or the relevant part of the Note) at the specified office of any Transfer Agent, with the form of transfer thereon duly executed by the holder or holders thereof or his or their attorney or attorneys duly authorised in writing and (ii) complete and deposit such other certifications as may be required by the relevant Transfer Agent and (b) the relevant Transfer Agent must, after due and careful enquiry, be satisfied with the documents of title and the identity of the person making the request. Any such transfer will be subject to such reasonable regulations as the Issuer and the Registrar may from time to time prescribe (the initial such regulations being set out in Schedule 8 to the Agency Agreement). Subject as provided above, the relevant Transfer Agent will, within three business days (being for this purpose a day on which banks are open for business in the city where the specified office of the relevant Transfer Agent is located) of the request (or such longer period as may be required to comply with any applicable fiscal or other laws or regulations), authenticate and deliver, or procure the authentication and delivery of, at its specified office to the transferee or (at the risk of the transferee) send by uninsured mail, to such address as the transferee may request, a new Note in definitive form of a like aggregate nominal amount to the Note (or the relevant part of the Note) transferred. In the case of the transfer of part only of a Note in definitive form, a new Note in definitive form in respect of the balance of the Note not transferred will be so authenticated and delivered or (at the risk of the transferor) sent to the transferor.

2.3 **Registration of transfer upon partial redemption**

In the event of a partial redemption of Notes under Condition 7, the Issuer shall not be required to register the transfer of any Note, or part of a Note, called for partial redemption.

2.4 **Costs of registration**

Noteholders will not be required to bear the costs and expenses of effecting any registration of transfer as provided above, except for any costs or expenses of delivery other than by regular uninsured mail and except

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 41 – Hogan Lovells

------

that the Issuer may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp duty, tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation to the registration.

**3. STATUS OF THE NOTES AND THE GUARANTEE**

3.1 **Status of the Notes**

The Notes are direct, unconditional and (subject to the provisions of Condition 4) unsecured obligations of the Issuer and rank and will rank *pari passu*, without any preference among themselves, with all other outstanding unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Issuer, present and future, but, in the event of insolvency, only to the extent permitted by applicable laws relating to creditors' rights.

3.2 **Status of the Guarantee**

The obligations of the Guarantor under the Guarantee are direct, unconditional and (subject to the provisions of Condition 4) unsecured obligations of the Guarantor and rank and will rank *pari passu* with all other outstanding unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Guarantor, present and future, but, in the event of insolvency, only to the extent permitted by applicable laws relating to creditors' rights.

**4. Negative Pledge**

In these Conditions:

"**Relevant Indebtedness**" means (i) any present or future indebtedness (whether being principal, premium, interest or other amounts) for or in respect of any notes, bonds, debentures, debenture stock, loan stock or other securities which are for the time being or are or are intended by the issuer thereof to be quoted, listed or ordinarily dealt in on any stock exchange, over-the-counter or other securities market and (ii) any guarantee or indemnity in respect of any such indebtedness; and

"**Subsidiary**" means in relation to any person (the "**first person**") at any particular time, any other person (the "**second person**"):

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 42 – Hogan Lovells

------

**5. Interest** 

5.1 **Interest on Fixed Rate Notes**

Each Fixed Rate Note bears interest from (and including) the Interest Commencement Date at the rate(s) per annum equal to the Rate(s) of Interest. Interest will be payable in arrear on the Interest Payment Date(s) in each year up to (and including) the Maturity Date.

Except as provided in the applicable Pricing Supplement, the amount of interest payable on each Interest Payment Date in respect of the Fixed Interest Period ending on (but excluding) such date will amount to the Fixed Coupon Amount. Payments of interest on any Interest Payment Date will, if so specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement, amount to the Broken Amount so specified.

As used in the Conditions, "**Fixed Interest Period**" means the period from (and including) an Interest Payment Date (or the Interest Commencement Date) to (but excluding) the next (or first) Interest Payment Date.

Except in the case of Notes where an applicable Fixed Coupon Amount or Broken Amount is specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement, interest shall be calculated in respect of any period by applying the Rate of Interest to the Calculation Amount (or, if they are Partly Paid Notes, the aggregate amount paid up) and multiplying such sum by the applicable Day Count Fraction and rounding the resultant figure to the nearest sub-unit of the relevant Specified Currency, half of any such sub-unit being rounded upwards or otherwise in accordance with applicable market convention. Where the Specified Denomination of a Fixed Rate Note is a multiple of the Calculation Amount, the amount of interest payable in respect of such Fixed Rate Note shall be the product of the amount (determined in the manner provided above) for the Calculation Amount and the amount by which the Calculation Amount is multiplied to reach the Specified Denomination, without any further rounding.

"**Day Count Fraction**" means, in respect of the calculation of an amount of interest, in accordance with this Condition 5.1:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) if "Actual/Actual (ICMA)" is specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) in the case of Notes where the number of days in the relevant period from (and including) the most recent Interest Payment Date (or, if none, the Interest Commencement Date) to (but excluding) the relevant payment date (the "**Accrual Period**") is equal to or shorter than the Determination Period during which the Accrual Period ends, the number of days in such Accrual Period divided by the product of (1) the number of days in such Determination Period and (2) the number of Determination Dates (as specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement) that would occur in one calendar year; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) in the case of Notes where the Accrual Period is longer than the Determination Period during which the Accrual Period ends, the sum of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) the number of days in such Accrual Period falling in the Determination Period in which the Accrual Period begins divided by the product of (x) the number of days in such Determination Period and (y) the number of Determination Dates that would occur in one calendar year; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) the number of days in such Accrual Period falling in the next Determination Period divided by the product of (x) the number of days in such Determination Period and (y) the number of Determination Dates that would occur in one calendar year; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) if "30/360" is specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement, the number of days in the period from (and including) the most recent Interest Payment Date (or, if none, the Interest Commencement

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 43 – Hogan Lovells

------

Date) to (but excluding) the relevant payment date (such number of days being calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days with 12 30-day months) divided by 360.

In these Conditions:

"**Determination Period**" means each period from (and including) a Determination Date to (but excluding) the next Determination Date (including, where either the Interest Commencement Date or the final Interest Payment Date is not a Determination Date, the period commencing on the first Determination Date prior to, and ending on the first Determination Date falling after, such date); and

"**sub-unit**" means, with respect to any currency other than euro, the lowest amount of such currency that is available as legal tender in the country of such currency and, with respect to euro, one cent.

5.2 **Interest on Floating Rate Notes**

(a) **Interest Payment Dates**

Each Floating Rate Note bears interest from (and including) the Interest Commencement Date and such interest will be payable in arrear on either:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Specified Interest Payment Date(s) in each year specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) if no Specified Interest Payment Date(s) is/are specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement, each date (each such date, together with each Specified Interest Payment Date, an "**Interest Payment Date**") which falls the number of months or other period specified as the Specified Period in the applicable Pricing Supplement after the preceding Interest Payment Date or, in the case of the first Interest Payment Date, after the Interest Commencement Date.

Such interest will be payable in respect of each Interest Period. In these Conditions, "**Interest Period**" means the period from (and including) an Interest Payment Date (or the Interest Commencement Date) to (but excluding) the next (or first) Interest Payment Date or the relevant payment date if the Notes become payable on a date other than an Interest Payment Date.

If a Business Day Convention is specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement and (x) if there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month in which an Interest Payment Date should occur or (y) if any Interest Payment Date would otherwise fall on a day which is not a Business Day, then, if the Business Day Convention specified is:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) in any case where Specified Periods are specified in accordance with Condition 5.2(a)(ii) above, the Floating Rate Convention, such Interest Payment Date (a) in the case of (x) above, shall be the last day that is a Business Day in the relevant month and the provisions of (ii) below shall apply *mutatis mutandis* or (b) in the case of (y) above, shall be postponed to the next day which is a Business Day unless it would thereby fall into the next calendar month, in which event (i) such Interest Payment Date shall be brought forward to the immediately preceding Business Day and (ii) each subsequent Interest Payment Date shall be the last Business Day in the month which falls the Specified Period after the preceding applicable Interest Payment Date occurred; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the Following Business Day Convention, such Interest Payment Date shall be postponed to the next day which is a Business Day; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) the Modified Following Business Day Convention, such Interest Payment Date shall be postponed to the next day which is a Business Day unless it would thereby fall into the next calendar month, in which event such Interest Payment Date shall be brought forward to the immediately preceding Business Day; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(D) the Preceding Business Day Convention, such Interest Payment Date shall be brought forward to the immediately preceding Business Day.

In these Conditions, "**Business Day**" means:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) a day on which commercial banks and foreign exchange markets settle payments and are open for general business (including dealing in foreign exchange and foreign currency deposits) in each Additional Business Centre (other than T2 System) specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) if T2 System is specified as an Additional Business Centre in the applicable Pricing Supplement, a day on which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross Settlement Express Transfer (T2) System (the "**T2 System**") is open; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) either (1) in relation to any sum payable in a Specified Currency other than euro, a day on which commercial banks and foreign exchange markets settle payments and are open for general business (including dealing in foreign exchange and foreign currency deposits) in the principal financial centre of the country of the relevant Specified Currency (which if the Specified Currency is Australian dollars or New Zealand dollars shall be Sydney and Auckland, respectively) or (2) in relation to any sum payable in euro, a day on which the T2 System is open.

(b) **Rate of Interest**

The Rate of Interest payable from time to time in respect of Floating Rate Notes will be determined in the manner specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Screen Rate Determination for Floating Rate Notes other than Floating Rate Notes referencing SONIA

Where Screen Rate Determination is specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement as the manner in which the Rate of Interest is to be determined, and the applicable Pricing Supplement specifies that the Reference Rate is not Compounded Daily SONIA, the Rate of Interest for each Interest Period will, subject as provided below, be either:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the offered quotation; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the arithmetic mean (rounded if necessary to the fifth decimal place, with 0.000005 being rounded upwards) of the offered quotations,

(expressed as a percentage rate per annum) for the Reference Rate (being EURIBOR, as specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement) which appears or appear, as the case may be, on the Relevant Screen Page (or such replacement page on that service which displays the information) as at 11.00 a.m. (Brussels time) on the Interest Determination Date in question plus or minus (as indicated in the applicable Pricing Supplement) the Margin (if any), all as determined by the the Calculation Agent. If five or more of such offered quotations are available on the Relevant Screen Page, the highest (or, if there is more than one such highest quotation, one only of such quotations) and the lowest (or, if there is more than one such lowest quotation, one only of such quotations) shall be disregarded by the Calculation Agent for the purpose of determining the arithmetic mean (rounded as provided above) of such offered quotations.

If the Relevant Screen Page is not available or if, in the case of Condition 5.2(b)(ii)(A), no such offered quotation appears or, in the case of Condition 5.2(b)(ii)(B), fewer than three such offered quotations appear, in each case as at the time specified in the preceding paragraph (the "**Specified Time**"), the Issuer or an agent appointed by it shall request each of the Reference Banks to provide the Issuer or an agent appointed by it with its offered quotation (expressed as a percentage rate per annum) for the Reference Rate at approximately the Specified Time on the Interest Determination Date in question and the Issuer or an agent appointed by it shall notify the Calculation Agent of all

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 45 – Hogan Lovells

------

quotations received by it. If two or more of the Reference Banks provide offered quotations, the Rate of Interest for the Interest Period shall be the arithmetic mean (rounded if necessary to the fifth decimal place with 0.000005 being rounded upwards) of the offered quotations plus or minus (as appropriate) the Margin (if any), all as determined by the Calculation Agent.

If on any Interest Determination Date one only or none of the Reference Banks provides an offered quotation as provided in the preceding paragraph, the Rate of Interest for the relevant Interest Period shall be the rate per annum which the Calculation Agent determines as being the arithmetic mean (rounded if necessary to the fifth decimal place, with 0.000005 being rounded upwards) of the rates, as communicated to the Issuer upon request (and notified to the Calculation Agent by the Issuer) by the Reference Banks or any two or more of them, at which such banks were offered, at approximately the Specified Time on the relevant Interest Determination Date, deposits in the Specified Currency for a period equal to that which would have been used for the Reference Rate by leading banks in the Euro-zone inter-bank market plus or minus (as appropriate) the Margin (if any) or, if fewer than two of the Reference Banks provide the Issuer with offered rates, the offered rate for deposits in the Specified Currency for a period equal to that which would have been used for the Reference Rate, or the arithmetic mean (rounded as provided above) of the offered rates for deposits in the Specified Currency for a period equal to that which would have been used for the Reference Rate, at which, at approximately the Specified Time on the relevant Interest Determination Date, any one or more banks (which bank or banks is or are in the opinion of the Issuer suitable for the purpose) informs the Issuer it is quoting to leading banks in the Euro-zone inter-bank market plus or minus (as appropriate) the Margin (if any), provided that, if the Rate of Interest cannot be determined in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, the Rate of Interest shall be determined as at the last preceding Interest Determination Date (though substituting, where a different Margin is to be applied to the relevant Interest Period from that which applied to the last preceding Interest Period, the Margin relating to the relevant Interest Period in place of the Margin relating to that last preceding Interest Period).

If the Reference Rate from time to time in respect of Floating Rate Notes is specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement as being other than EURIBOR, the Rate of Interest in respect of the Notes will be determined as provided in the applicable Pricing Supplement.

In the Conditions:

"**Reference Banks**" means the principal Euro-zone office of four major banks in the Euro-zone inter-bank market, in each case selected by the Issuer.

Unless otherwise stated in the applicable Pricing Supplement the Minimum Rate of Interest shall be deemed to be zero.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Screen Rate Determination for Floating Rate Notes referencing SONIA

Where Screen Rate Determination is specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement as the manner in which the Rate of Interest is to be determined, and the applicable Pricing Supplement specifies that the Reference Rate is Compounded Daily SONIA, the Rate of Interest for each Interest Period will, subject as provided below, be the sum of Compounded Daily SONIA and the Margin, on the Interest Determination Date for such Interest Period, all as determined by the Calculation Agent.

If, in respect of any London Banking Day in the relevant Observation Period, the SONIA rate is not available on the Relevant Screen Page (or such replacement page on that service which displays the information) or has not otherwise been published by the relevant authorised distributors, such SONIA rate shall be the sum of (A) the Bank of England's Bank Rate (the "**Bank Rate**") prevailing at close of business on such London Banking Day; plus (B) the mean of the spread of the SONIA rate to the Bank Rate over the previous five days on which a SONIA rate has been published,

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 46 – Hogan Lovells

------

excluding the highest spread (or, if there is more than one highest spread, one only of those highest spreads) and lowest spread (or, if there is more than one lowest spread, one only of those lowest spreads).

If the Rate of Interest cannot be determined in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Rate of Interest shall be (1) that determined as at the last preceding Interest Determination Date (though substituting, where a different Margin is to be applied to the relevant Interest Period from that which applied to the last preceding Interest Period, the Margin relating to the relevant Interest Period, in place of the Margin relating to that last preceding Interest Period) or (2) if there is no such preceding Interest Determination Date, the initial Rate of Interest which would have been applicable to the Notes for the first Interest Period had the Notes been in issue for a period equal in duration to the scheduled first Interest Period but ending on (and excluding) the Interest Commencement Date (but applying the Margin applicable to the first Interest Period).

If the Notes become due and payable in accordance with Condition 10, the final Interest Determination Date shall, notwithstanding any Interest Determination Date specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement, be deemed to be the date on which the Notes became due and payable and the Rate of Interest applicable to the Notes shall, for so long as any such Note remains outstanding, be that determined on such date.

In the Conditions:

"**Compounded Daily SONIA**" means, in relation to an Interest Period, the rate of return of a daily compound interest investment (with the daily Sterling overnight reference rate as reference rate for the calculation of interest) and will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as follows, and the resulting percentage will be rounded, if necessary, to the fifth decimal place, with 0.000005 being rounded upwards:

i=1d01+SONIAi-pLBD×ni365-1×365d

Where:

"**d**" means, in relation to any Interest Period, the number of calendar days in such Interest Period;

"**d0**" means, in relation to any Interest Period, the number of London Banking Days in such Interest Period;

"**i**" means, in relation to any Interest Period, a series of whole numbers from one to d0, each representing the relevant London Banking Day in chronological order from (and including) the first London Banking Day in such Interest Period to (and including) the last London Banking Day in such Interest Period;

"**London Banking Day**" or "**LBD**" means any day on which commercial banks are open for general business (including dealing in foreign exchange and foreign currency deposits) in London;

"**ni**" means, in relation to any London Banking Day "i", the number of calendar days from (and including) such London Banking Day "i" up to (but excluding) the following London Banking Day;

"**Observation Period**" means, in relation to an Interest Period, the period from (and including) the date which is "p" London Banking Days prior to the first day of such Interest Period and ending on (but excluding) the date which is "p" London Banking Days prior to the Interest Payment Date for such Interest Period (or the date falling "p" London Banking Days prior to such earlier date, if any, on which the Notes become due and payable);

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 47 – Hogan Lovells

------

"**p**" means the whole number specified as the Observation Look-back Period in the applicable Pricing Supplement, such number representing a number of London Banking Days, or if no such number is specified, five London Banking Days;

"**SONIAi**" means, in relation to any London Banking Day, "i", a reference rate equal to the daily Sterling Overnight Index Average ("**SONIA**") rate for such London Banking Day as provided by the administrator of SONIA to authorised distributors and as then published on the Relevant Screen Page (or such replacement page on that service which displays the information) (or, if the Relevant Screen Page (or such replacement page on that service which displays the information) is unavailable, as otherwise published by such authorised distributors) on the London Banking Day immediately following such London Banking Day; and

"**SONIAi-pLBD**" means, in relation to any London Banking Day "i" falling in the relevant Interest Period, the SONIA rate for the London Banking Day falling "p" London Banking Days prior to such London Banking Day "i".

(c) **Minimum Rate of Interest and/or Maximum Rate of Interest**

If the applicable Pricing Supplement specifies a Minimum Rate of Interest for any Interest Period, then, in the event that the Rate of Interest in respect of such Interest Period determined in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (b) above is less than such Minimum Rate of Interest, the Rate of Interest for such Interest Period shall be such Minimum Rate of Interest.

If the applicable Pricing Supplement specifies a Maximum Rate of Interest for any Interest Period, then, in the event that the Rate of Interest in respect of such Interest Period determined in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (b) above is greater than such Maximum Rate of Interest, the Rate of Interest for such Interest Period shall be such Maximum Rate of Interest.

(d) **Determination of Rate of Interest and calculation of Interest Amounts**

The Calculation Agent, as applicable, will at or as soon as practicable after each time at which the Rate of Interest is to be determined, determine the Rate of Interest for the relevant Interest Period.

The Calculation Agent will calculate the amount of interest (the "**Interest Amount**") payable on the Floating Rate Notes for the relevant Interest Period by applying the Rate of Interest to the Calculation Amount (or, if they are Partly Paid Notes, the aggregate amount paid up) and multiplying such sum by the applicable Day Count Fraction, and rounding the resultant figure to the nearest sub-unit of the relevant Specified Currency, half of any such sub-unit being rounded upwards or otherwise in accordance with applicable market convention. Where the Specified Denomination of a Floating Rate Note is a multiple of the Calculation Amount, the Interest Amount payable in respect of such Note shall be the product of the amount (determined in the manner provided above) for the Calculation Amount and the amount by which the Calculation Amount is multiplied to reach the Specified Denomination without any further rounding.

"**Day Count Fraction**" means, in respect of the calculation of an amount of interest in accordance with this Condition 5.2:

In the Conditions:

"**Adjustment Spread**" means a spread (which may be positive or negative) or formula or methodology for calculating a spread, which the relevant Independent Adviser determines is required to be applied to a Successor Reference Rate or an Alternative Reference Rate (as applicable) in order to reduce or eliminate, to the extent reasonably practicable in the circumstances, any economic prejudice or benefit (as applicable) to Noteholders as a result of the replacement of the Reference Rate with such Successor Reference Rate or Alternative Reference Rate (as applicable) and is the spread, formula or methodology which:

**FORM OF NOTES**

The Notes of each Series will be in registered form, without interest coupons attached. Notes will be issued outside the United States in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Regulation S.

The Notes of each Tranche will initially be represented by a global note in registered form (a "**Global Note**").

Global Notes will be deposited with a common depositary or, if the Global Notes are to be held under the new safe-keeping structure (the "**NSS**"), a common safekeeper, as the case may be for Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg, and registered in the name of the nominee for the common depositary of, Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg or in the name of a nominee of the common safekeeper, as specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement. Persons holding beneficial interests in Global Notes will be entitled or required, as the case may be, under the circumstances described below, to receive physical delivery of definitive Notes in fully registered form.

Where the Global Notes issued in respect of any Tranche is intended to be held under the NSS, the applicable Pricing Supplement will indicate whether or not such Global Notes are intended to be held in a manner which would allow Eurosystem eligibility. Any indication that the Global Notes are to be so held does not necessarily mean that the Notes of the relevant Tranche will be recognised as eligible collateral for Eurosystem monetary policy and intra-day credit operations by the Eurosystem either upon issue or at any time during their life as such recognition depends upon satisfaction of the Eurosystem eligibility criteria. The common safekeeper for a Global Note held under the NSS will either be Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg or another entity approved by Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg.

Payments of principal, interest and any other amount in respect of the Global Notes will, in the absence of provision to the contrary, be made to the person shown on the Register (as defined in Condition 6.2) as the registered holder of the Global Notes. None of the Issuer, the Guarantor, any Paying Agent or the Registrar will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments or deliveries made on account of beneficial ownership interests in the Global Notes or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

Payments of principal, interest or any other amount in respect of the Notes in definitive form will, in the absence of provision to the contrary, be made to the persons shown on the Register on the relevant Record Date (as defined in Condition 6.2) immediately preceding the due date for payment in the manner provided in that Condition.

Interests in a Global Note will be exchangeable (free of charge), in whole but not in part, for definitive Notes only upon the occurrence of an Exchange Event. For these purposes, **Exchange Event** means that (i) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) the Issuer has been notified that both Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg have been closed for business for a continuous period of 14 days (other than by reason of holiday, statutory or otherwise) or have announced an intention permanently to cease business or have in fact done so and, in any such case, no successor clearing system is available or (iii) the Issuer has or will become subject to adverse tax consequences which would not be suffered were the Notes represented by the Global Note in definitive form. The Issuer will promptly give notice to Noteholders in accordance with Condition 13 if an Exchange Event occurs. In the event of the occurrence of an Exchange Event, Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg or any person acting on their behalf (acting on the instructions of any holder of an interest in such Global Note) may give notice to the Registrar requesting exchange and, in the event of the occurrence of an Exchange Event as described in (iii) above, the Issuer may also give notice to the Registrar requesting exchange. Any such exchange shall occur not later than 10 days after the date of receipt of the first relevant notice by the Registrar.

No beneficial owner of an interest in a Global Note will be able to transfer such interest, except in accordance with the applicable procedures of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg, in each case to the extent applicable.

**General**

Pursuant to the Agency Agreement (as defined under "*Terms and Conditions of the Notes*"), the Fiscal Agent shall arrange that, where a further Tranche of Notes is issued which is intended to form a single Series with an existing

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 72 – Hogan Lovells

------

Tranche of Notes at a point after the Issue Date of the further Tranche, the Notes of such further Tranche shall be assigned a common code and ISIN which are different from the common code and ISIN assigned to Notes of any other Tranche of the same Series, which shall not be prior to the expiry of the distribution compliance period (as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act) applicable to the Notes of such Tranche.

Any reference herein to Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg shall, whenever the context so permits, be deemed to include a reference to any additional or alternative clearing system specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement.

A Note may be accelerated by the holder thereof in certain circumstances described in Condition 10. In such circumstances, where any Note is still represented by a Global Note and the Global Note (or any part thereof) has become due and repayable in accordance with the Conditions and payment in full of the amount due has not been made in accordance with the provisions of the Global Note then from 8.00 p.m. (London time) on such day holders of interests in such Global Note credited to their accounts with Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be, will become entitled to proceed directly against the Issuer on the basis of statements of account provided by Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg on and subject to the terms of a deed of covenant (the "**Deed of Covenant**") dated 22 February 2022 and executed by the Issuer.

Issuer and Guarantor

**DESCRIPTION OF THE GROUP**

**General**

The Issuer is a Delaware corporation with its principal executive offices in Stockholm, Sweden. The Issuer functions as a holding corporation and owns two principal subsidiaries, Autoliv AB (Sweden) and the Guarantor. The Issuer's fiscal year ends on 31 December.

The Issuer was incorporated in the State of Delaware on 1 October 1996 under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware with file number 2668672. The address of the Issuer is Klarabergsviadukten 70, Section D5, 7th Floor, Box 70381, SE-111 64, Stockholm, Sweden and its telephone number is +46 8 587 20 600. The address of the Issuer's registered office in the State of Delaware is 251 Little Falls Drive, Wilmington, Delaware, County of New Castle 19808. The name of its registered agent at such address is Corporation Service Company.

**Group Structure Chart**

The following diagram shows the Issuer's key subsidiaries, including depicting the Guarantor's position within the Group as at the date of this Base Listing Particulars:

**Business**

The Group is a leading developer, manufacturer, and supplier of safety systems to the automotive industry with a broad range of product offerings.

Passive safety systems are primarily meant to improve safety for occupants in a vehicle. Passive safety systems include modules and components for frontal-impact airbag protection systems, side-impact airbag protection systems, pedestrian protection systems, steering wheels, inflator technologies, battery cut-off switches and seatbelts.

To expand the Group's product offerings, the Group formed Mobility Safety Solutions. By combining its core competence and industry experience, the Group also develops and manufactures mobility safety solutions such as passive safety systems for commercial vehicles, battery cut-off switches, and safety solutions for riders of motorcycles and bikes.

The Group has approximately 62 production facilities in 23 countries and its customers include the world's largest car manufacturers. The Group's sales in 2025 were US$10.8 billion, approximately 68% of which consisted of airbag and steering wheel products and approximately 32% of which consisted of seatbelt products. The Issuer's business is conducted in the following geographical regions: the Americas, Europe, China, and Asia (excluding China).

The Issuer's head office is located in Stockholm, Sweden, where it currently employs approximately 113 people. At 31 December 2025, the Group had a total number of personnel of approximately 64,300 worldwide, of which <u>10</u>% were temporary personnel.

Additional information regarding developments in the Group's business during 2025 is contained under Item 7 of the 2025 Consolidated Financial Statements.

**Reportable Segment**

Since completion of the spin-off of its former Electronics segment on 29 June 2018, the Issuer has one reportable segment based on the way the Issuer evaluates its financial performance and manages its operations. The Issuer's

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 75 – Hogan Lovells

------

business is comprised of passive safety products - principally airbags (including steering wheels and inflators) and seatbelts.

For more information regarding the Group's segment reporting, see Note 1 (*Basis of Presentation*) to the 2025 Consolidated Financial Statements.

**Products, Market, and Competition**

*Products*

Providing life-saving solutions is a key priority as the world population grows and develops. However, population expansion in growth markets and the rise of megacities creates new complexities. To meet this challenge, the Group develops automotive safety solutions that work in real-life situations.

The Group's passive safety systems such as seatbelts and airbags substantially mitigate human consequences of traffic accidents.

The airbag module is designed to inflate extremely rapidly and then quickly deflate during a collision or impact. It consists of the container, an airbag cushion, and an inflator. The purpose of the airbag is to provide the occupants a cushioning and restraint during a crash event to prevent any impact or impact-caused injuries between the occupant and the interior of the vehicle.

Seatbelts can reduce the overall risk of serious injuries in frontal crashes by as much as 60% due to advanced seatbelt technologies such as pretensioners and load limiters.

The Issuer also manufactures steering wheels that are crafted to ensure they meet safety requirements and are functional as well as stylish.

*Market and Competition*

Consumer research clearly shows that consumers want safe vehicles, and several significant trends are likely to have a positive influence on overall safety CPV. These include:

1) Society becoming increasingly focused on Vision Zero, which includes a goal of reducing traffic fatalities and their associated costs;

2) Demographic trends of increased urbanisation, aging driver populations, and increased safety focus in growth markets;

3) Evolving government regulations and test rating systems to improve the safety of vehicles in various markets, such as the updated European New Car Assessment Program (Euro NCAP), China NCAP, and USNCAP; and

4) The trend towards autonomous vehicles may lead to roomier interiors that may require more advanced passive safety systems.

The automotive passive safety market is driven by two primary factors: LVP and CPV.

The first growth driver, LVP, has increased at an average annual growth rate of around 1.9% since the incorporation of the Issuer in 1997 despite persistent headwinds in Europe and North America. LVP is forecasted to grow to close to 92 million vehicles by 2028 from just over 90 million in 2025, due to growing demand and export in medium- and low-income markets.

Unlike LVP, where the Group can only aim to be on the best-selling platforms, the Group can influence CPV more directly by continuously developing and introducing new technologies with higher value-added features. Over the long-term, this increases average safety CPV and has caused the Group's markets to grow faster than the LVP.

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 76 – Hogan Lovells

------

Since the incorporation of the Issuer in 1997, the Group's net sales compound annual growth rate ("**CAGR**") for passive safety has been around 5% compared to the market rate of around 2.8% which includes an LVP growth of around 1.9%. The Group's outperformance is a result of a steady flow of new passive safety technologies, strong focus on quality and a superior global footprint both in products and engineering. This has enabled the Group to increase its global market share in passive safety from 27% in 1997 to around 44% in 2025.

In high-income markets, such as Western Europe, North America, Japan, and South Korea, the average CPV is around US$350. CPV growth in these regions mainly comes from new safety systems such as active seatbelts, knee airbags, and front centre airbags along with improved protection for pedestrians and rear-seat occupants like bag-in-belt or more advanced seatbelts.

In medium and low-income markets (all markets other than the high-income markets mentioned above), the Group sees great opportunities for CPV growth from more airbags and advanced seatbelt products. The average CPV in these is around US$210, which is approximately US$140 less than in the high-income markets.

As a result of higher installation rates of airbags, more advanced seatbelt products, and more complex steering wheels, CPV is expected to increase at a similar pace in both high-income and medium and low-income markets over the next three years.

In the next three years, almost all LVP growth is expected to come in medium and low-income regions with lower CPV, leading to a dilution of the average global CPV. Despite this negative regional LVP mix effect, the annual passive safety market (seatbelts and airbags, including steering wheels), is expected to grow from around US$24 billion in 2025 to almost US$26 billion over the next three years, based on the current macro-economic outlook and the Group's internal market intelligence and estimates

In seatbelts, the Group has a global market share of around 45%, primarily due to being the technology leader with several important innovations such as pretensioners and active seatbelts. The Group's strong market position is also a reflection of its superior global footprint. Seatbelts are the primary life-saving safety product globally and are also an important requirement in low-end vehicles in the medium and low-income markets. This provides the Group with an excellent opportunity to benefit from the expected growth in this segment of the market.

The Group holds a leading position in both airbags and steering wheels, with a combined market share of around 44%. The market for airbags and steering wheels is expected to grow primarily due to increasing installation rates of inflatable curtains, side airbags, knee airbags, and front center airbags, as well as rising demand for higher value steering wheels with leather and additional integrated functions.

The Group's ability to consistently outperform market growth is rooted in a steady flow of new safety technologies, a strong focus on quality and a superior production and engineering footprint.

*The Group's Competitors*

The Group is the clear market leader in passive safety components and systems for the automotive industry with an estimated global market share of around 44%<sup>1</sup>.

AG, one of the Group's largest competitors, is a global leader in drive-line and chassis technology as well as in passive safety technologies, and is one of the largest global automotive suppliers.

Another large competitor is Joyson Safety Systems (JSS), a subsidiary of Ningbo Joyson Electronic Corp. JSS is a Chinese owned company and is the result of the merger between Key Safety Systems (KSS) and Takata Corporation after KSS acquired Takata in 2018.

In Japan, Brazil, South Korea, and China there are a number of local suppliers that have close ties with the domestic vehicle manufacturers. For example, Toyota uses "keiretsu" (in-house) suppliers Tokai Rika for seatbelts and Toyoda

Gosei for airbags and steering wheels. These suppliers generally receive most of the Toyota business in Japan, in the same way, Mobis, a major supplier to Hyundai/Kia in South Korea, generally receives a significant part of their business. Also BYD Auto., Ltd. (BYD) has a high degree of vertical integration, with a large proportion of in-house sourcing of products and systems. This includes passive safety systems, which is supplied by its subsidiary FinDreams Technology. The Group supplies components, especially inflators, to FinDreams Technology.

Other competitors include Nihon Plast and Ashimori in Japan, Yanfeng and Jinheng in China, Samsung in South Korea and Chris Cintos de Seguranca in South America. Collectively, these competitors account for the majority of the remaining market share in passive safety.

Additional information concerning the Group's products, markets and competition is included in the "*Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Risks and Risk Management*" section under Item 7 of the 2025 Consolidated Financial Statements.

**Manufacturing and Production**

See the "Properties" section below for a description of the Issuer's principal properties. The component factories manufacture inflators, propellant, initiators, textile cushions, webbing, pressed steel parts, springs, and over moulded steel parts used in seatbelt and airbag assembly and steering wheels. The assembly factories source components from a number of parties, including the Group's own component factories, and assemble complete restraint systems for "just-in-time" delivery to customers. The products manufactured by the Issuer's consolidated subsidiaries in 2025 consisted of 143 million complete seatbelt systems (of which 100 million were fitted with pretensioners), 143 million side airbags (including curtain airbags and front centre airbags), 61 million frontal airbags and 21 million steering wheels.

The Group's "just-in-time" delivery system is designed to accommodate the specific requirements of each customer for low levels of inventory and rapid stock delivery service. "Just-in-time" deliveries require final assembly or, at least, distribution centres in geographic areas close to customers to facilitate rapid delivery. The fact that the major automobile manufacturers are continually expanding their production activities into more countries and require the same or similar safety systems as those produced in Europe, Japan or the U.S. increases the importance for suppliers to have assembly capacity in several countries. Consolidation among the Group's customers also supports this trend.

The Group's assembly operations generally are not constrained by capacity considerations unless there is a disruption in the supply of raw materials and components. When dramatic shifts in LVP occur, the Group can generally adjust capacity in response to any changes in demand within a few days by adding or removing work shifts and within a few months by adding or removing standardised production and assembly lines. Most of the Group's assembly factories can make sufficient space available to accommodate additional production lines to satisfy foreseeable increases in capacity. As a result, the Group can usually adjust its manufacturing capacity faster than its customers can adjust their capacity as a result of fluctuations in the general demand for vehicles or in the demand for a specific vehicle model, provided that customers promptly notify the Group when they become aware of such changes in demand. However, these types of adjustments can be costly and can impact the Group's operating margin.

When significant volatility in LVP occurs, as was seen in 2022 and 2023 due to supply disruptions, or when there is a shift in regional LVP, the capacity adjustments can take more time and be more costly. During 2025, the volatility of LVP improved, although it is still volatile than prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, when there is significant demand for a given product due to a major recall of a competitor's product, like certain of the Group's customers have experienced, capacity adjustments may take time.

The Group could experience disruption in its supply or delivery chain, which could cause one or more of its customers to halt or delay production. For more information, see Risk Factors section, "*The Group could experience disruption in its supply or delivery chain, which could cause one or more of the Group's customers to halt or delay production*".

**Quality Management**

The Group's management believes that superior quality is a prerequisite to being considered a leading global supplier of automotive safety systems and is key to its financial performance, because quality excellence is critical for winning new orders, preventing recalls and maintaining low scrap rates. The Group has for many years emphasised a "zero-defect" proactive quality policy and continues to strive to improve its working methods. The Group's products are expected to always meet performance expectations and be delivered to its customers at the right times and in the right amounts. The Group's management believes its continued quality improvements further enhance its reputation among its customers, employees, and governmental authorities.

Although quality has always been paramount in the automotive industry, especially for safety products, automobile manufacturers have become increasingly focused on quality with even less tolerance for any deviations. This intensified focus on quality is partially due to an increase in the number of vehicle recalls for a variety of reasons (not just safety), including a few high-profile vehicle recalls. This trend is likely to continue as automobile manufacturers introduce even stricter quality requirements and regulating agencies and other authorities increase the level of scrutiny given to vehicle-safety issues. The Group has not been immune to the recalls that have been impacting the automotive industry.

The Group continues to drive its quality initiative called "Q5" which was initiated in 2010. It is an integral part of the Group's strategy of shaping a proactive quality culture of zero defects. It is called "Q5" because it addresses quality in five dimensions: products, customers, growth, behaviour, and suppliers. The goal of Q5 is to firmly tie together quality with value within all of the Group's processes and for all of the Group's employees, thereby leading to the best value for the Group's customers. Since 2010, the Group has continually focused on this quality initiative to provide additional skills training to more employees and suppliers. These activities have significantly improved the Group's quality performance.

In its pursuit of quality excellence, the Group developed a chain of four "defence lines" to deal with potential quality issues. The defence lines are: 1) robust product designs, 2) flawless components from suppliers and the Group's own in-house component companies, 3) manufacturing flawless products with a system for verifying that the Group's products conform with specifications, and 4) an advanced traceability system in the event of a recall.

The Group's pursuit of quality excellence extends from the earliest phases of product development to the proper disposal of a product following many years of use in a vehicle. The Group's comprehensive Autoliv Product

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 85 – Hogan Lovells

------

Development System ("**APS**") includes several key check points during the process of developing new products that are designed to ensure that such products are well-built and have no hidden defects. Through this process, the Group works closely with its suppliers and customers to set clear standards that help to ensure robust component design and lowest cost for function in order to proactively prevent problems and ensure it delivers only the best designs to the market.

The APS, based on the goals of improving quality and efficiency, is at the core of the Group's manufacturing philosophy. APS integrates essential quality elements, such as mistake proofing, statistical process control and operator involvement, into the manufacturing processes so all the Group's associates are aware of and understand the critical connection between themselves and the Group's lifesaving products. This "zero-defect" principle extends beyond the Group to the entire supplier base. All of the Group's suppliers must accept the strict quality standards in the global Autoliv Supplier Manual, which defines the Group's quality requirements and focuses on preventing bad parts from being produced by the Group's suppliers and helps eliminate defective intermediate products in the Group's assembly lines as early as possible. In addition, the One Product One Process ("**1P1P**") initiative is the Group's strategy for developing and managing standardisation of both core products and customer-specific features, leading not only to improved quality, but also greater cost efficiency and more efficient supply chain management.

IATF 16949:2016 is one of the automotive industry's most widely used international standards for quality management. All Autoliv facilities that ship products to OEMs are regularly certified according to the International Automotive Task Force (IATF) standards.

**Environmental and Safety Regulations**

For information on how environmental and safety regulations impact the Group's business, see "*Risk Factors – The Group's business may be adversely affected by laws or regulations, including environmental, occupational health and safety, and other governmental regulations*", "*Risk Factors - Global climate change could negatively affect the Group's business*", "*Risk Factors – The Group's goals, targets, and ambitions related to sustainability and emissions reduction, and its public statements and disclosures regarding them, may, from time to time, result in additional considerations or expectations and expose the Group to numerous risks*" and "*Risk Factors - The Group's business may be adversely affected by changes in automotive safety regulations or concerns that drive further regulation of the automobile safety market"*.

**Raw Materials**

Approximately 54% of the Group's net sales in 2025 came from direct material cost. The Group mainly purchases manufactured components and raw materials for the Group's operations. The Group takes several actions to manage the raw materials fluctuations, such as competitive sourcing and looking for alternative materials. The Group is also taking necessary actions to gradually utilise raw materials with a lower carbon emission footprint

For information on the sources and availability of raw materials, see "*Risk Factors – Changes in the source, cost, availability of, and regulations pertaining to raw materials and components may adversely affect the Group's profit margins*".

**Intellectual Property**

The Group has developed a considerable amount of proprietary technology related to automotive safety systems and relies on many patents to protect such technology. The Group's intellectual property plays an important role in maintaining its competitive position in a number of the markets it serves. For information on the Group's use of intellectual property and its importance to the Group, see "*Risk Factors – If the Group's patents are declared invalid or the Group's technology infringes on the proprietary rights of others, the Group's ability to compete may be impaired*".

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 86 – Hogan Lovells

------

**Backlog**

The Group has frame contracts with automobile manufacturers and such contracts are typically entered into up to three years before the start of production of the relevant car model or platform and provide for a term covering the life of such car model or platform including service parts after a vehicle model is no longer produced. These contracts, however, do not typically provide minimum quantities, firm prices or exclusivity but instead permit the automobile manufacturer to resource the relevant products at given intervals (or at any time) from other suppliers. The Group may refer to this backlog as the order intake or order book.

For more information about order intake see the risk factor above *– "The cyclical nature of automotive sales and production can adversely affect the Group's business, operating results and financial condition. The Group's business is directly related to Light Vehicle Production ("LVP") in the global market and by the Group's customers, and automotive sales and LVP are the most important drivers for the Group's sales"*.

**Dependence on Customers**

In 2025, the Group's top five customers represented around 44% of the Group's consolidated net sales and the Group's top ten customers represented around 70% of the Group's consolidated net sales. This reflects the concentration of manufacturers in the automotive industry. In 2025, the Group's five largest customers accounted for around 40%, and the ten largest customers for around 56% of global LVP. A delivery contract is typically for the lifetime of a vehicle model, which is normally between five and seven years depending on customer platform sourcing preferences and strategies.

For information on the Group's dependence on customers, see "*Risk Factors - The Group's business could be materially and adversely affected if the Group loses any of the Group's largest customers, loses business from any of its largest customers, or if any such customers were unable their invoices"* and Note 21 (*Segment Information*) to the 2025 Consolidated Financial Statements.

**Customer Sales Trends**

Asian OEMs have steadily become increasingly important, mainly driven by growth with Japanese and Chinese OEMs. As a group Asian OEMs represent around 48% of the Group's consolidated net sales in 2025, of which Japanese OEMs accounted for almost two thirds of those sales. This is a result of the Group's stronger market position based on its local presence in Japan. As a group the Chinese OEMs accounted for around 8% of global consolidated net sales in 2025, with Geely representing more than 2% of the Group's consolidated net sales.

European based brands accounted for 30% of the Group's consolidated net sales in 2025. The U.S. based OEMs (including Chrysler and new EV manufactures) accounted for 20% of the Group's global sales in 2025. Globally the strongest growing customers from 2024 to 2025 were Stellantis, followed by Suzuki, Toyota and Chery.

**Research, Development and Engineering, net (R,D&E)**

During 2025, gross expenditures for Research, Development and Application Engineering (R,D&E) amounted to US$616 million compared to US$612 million in 2024. Of these amounts, US$202 million in 2025 and US$214 million in 2024 were related to customer-funded engineering projects and crash tests reimbursed by the customers. Net of this income, R,D&E expenditures in 2025 was US$413 million, compared to US$398 million in 2024. Of the gross R,D&E expense in 2025, 79% was for projects and programmes for which the Group has customer orders, typically related to vehicle models in development. The remaining 21% was mainly for new innovations, products and standardisations that may yield benefits over time.

No single customer project accounted for more than 2% of the Group's total R,D&E spending during 2025. To support the Group's product portfolio, additional expertise is brought in-house via technology partnerships and licensing agreements.

**Regulatory Costs**

The fitting of seatbelts in most types of motor vehicles is mandatory in almost all countries and many countries have strict laws regarding the use of seatbelts while in vehicles. In addition, most developed countries require that seats in intercity buses and commercial vehicles be fitted with seatbelts. In the U.S., federal legislation requires frontal airbags on the driver-side and the passenger-side of all new passenger cars, sport utility vehicles, pickup trucks, and vans.

For information concerning the material effects on the Group's business relating to the Group's compliance with government safety regulations, see "*Risk Factors – 'The Group's business may be adversely affected by laws or regulations, including environmental, occupational health and safety, and other governmental regulations' and 'The Group's business may be adversely affected by changes in automotive safety regulations or concerns that drive further regulation of the automobile safety market*'" and Item 7 "*Risks and Risk Management*" of 2025 Consolidated Financial Statements.

**Climate change**

The Group is committed to operating its business in an environmentally sustainable manner, meaning developing and producing products in a resource efficient way while limiting the Group's environmental impact in the most material areas of greenhouse gas emissions, energy use, waste, and water. With particular emphasis on climate action, the Group actively engages with its customers, suppliers, and others to drive sustainable mobility.

In June 2021, the Group launched an updated climate strategy including new long-term climate ambitions:

 Carbon neutrality in own operations by 2030; and

 Net-zero emissions across the Group's supply chain by 2040

These industry-leading climate ambitions are aligned with a 1.5°C trajectory and should position the Group as the supplier of choice for the progressive climate-focused customers, helping to ensure the Group's competitiveness now and in the future. In addition to these ambitions, the Group adopted Science Based Targets (SBTs) for 2030 covering its own operations as well as the supply chain. The targets were approved in January 2022 and are available at the SBTi website.

For more information about how climate change impacts the Group's business, see "*Risk factors* – *Global climate change could negatively affect the Group's business*".

**Human Capital Management** 

The Group's drive for excellence is what makes it the world's leading supplier of automotive safety systems. From the earliest stages of product development to sales and design to the final delivery of the finished product, the Group's employees are driven by its mission to save more lives.

The successful execution of the Group's strategies relies on the Group's ability to shape a quality and performance oriented culture, and to adapt quickly to sudden shifts in circumstances, such as the such as supply chain disruptions and geopolitical instability. As the Group moves forward, its workforce, including both employees and temporary personnel, strives to respond with agility to new opportunities for growth and improvement while delivering excellence to its customers. The Group builds a winning team by focusing on creating a work environment that attracts, retains and engages its employees.

The table below shows the Group's total workforce as of December 31, 2025 and 2024:

*Talent Attraction, Development, and Retention*

The Group believe that attraction, development, and retention of talent is essential to its success. The Group offers an inclusive work environment where its employees are challenged and achieve great things together. The Group seeks individuals who hold varied experiences and viewpoints to create a workplace that allows each employee to do their best work and drive the Group's collective success. The Group's workforce reflects the diversity of the countries and cultures in which it operates.

Supporting the development of the Group's employees is essential in a highly competitive and rapidly changing environment. An important cornerstone of each employee's growth is the ongoing dialogue between the team member and manager, which is summarized during an annual Performance and Development Dialogue ("**PDD**"). During the year, 100% of targeted employees conducted a PDD with their managers. To provide opportunities for professional and personal growth of the Group's employees, the Group has a multitude of development channels, including technical and specialist career paths, international assignments and other such programs.

The Group provides market-based competitive compensation through its salary, annual incentive, and long-term incentive programs and benefits packages that promote employee well-being across all aspects of their lives.

*Health and Safety*

The Group is committed to providing a zero-injury work environment that promotes the health, safety and welfare of the Group's employees. The Group's production facilities implement the Group's health and safety management system, which drives continuous improvement in health and safety supported by the Group's leadership. Execution of the system is monitored through internal and external ISO 45001 occupational health and safety management system audits. At the end of 2025, 70% of the Group's production facilities were certified to the ISO 45001 standard.

*Labour Relations*

The Group offers fair terms and conditions of employment. The Group's overall purpose, Code of Conduct, talent development strategies, and employment policies support the principles in the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and the International Labor Organization's Fundamental Principles and Labor Standards.

The Group's management considers its relationship with its employees to be good. While there have been a small number of minor labour disputes historically, such disputes have not had a significant or lasting impact on the Group's relationship with its employees, and customer perception of the Group's employee practices or its business results. Around 60% of the Group's workforce outside the United States is covered by a collective bargaining agreement.

Major unions to which some of the Group's employees belong in Europe include: IG Metall in Germany; Unite the union in the United Kingdom; Confédération Générale des Travailleurs, Confédération Française Démocratique du Travail, Confédération Française de l'Encadrement Confédération Générale des cadres, Force Ouvrière, Confédération Française des Travailleurs Chrétiens, Solidaires, Unitaires, Démocratiques and Conféderation Autonome du Travail in France; Union General de Trabajadores, Union Sindical Obrera, Comisiones Obereras and Confederacion General de Trabajadores in Spain; IF Metall, Unionen, Sveriges Ingenjörer and Ledarna in Sweden;

**TAXATION**

The statements below are general in nature and neither these statements nor any other statements in this Base Listing Particulars are to be regarded as advice on the tax position of any holder of the Notes or any person purchasing, selling or otherwise dealing in Notes. Prospective holders of the Notes and holders of the Notes who are in doubt about their tax position should consult their own professional advisers.

**United States**

**U.S. Federal Income Taxation** 

The Issuer generally intends to treat Notes issued under the Programme as debt for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Certain Notes, however, such as certain Index Linked Notes or Notes with extremely long maturities, may be treated as equity for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The following disclosure applies only to Notes that are treated as debt for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

**U.S. Holders** 

The following is a summary of certain U.S. federal income tax considerations relevant to U.S. Holders (as defined below) acquiring, holding and disposing of Notes. This summary addresses only the U.S. federal income tax considerations for initial purchasers of Notes at their issue price (as defined below) that will hold the Notes as capital assets (generally, property held for investment). This summary is based on the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "**Code**"), final, temporary and proposed U.S. Treasury regulations, and administrative and judicial interpretations in effect as of the date of this Base Listing Particulars, all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect.

As used herein, the term "U.S. Holder" means a beneficial owner of a Note that is for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

 a citizen or individual resident of the United States;

 a corporation created or organised in or under the laws of the United States or of any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

 an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or

 a trust if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust.

If an entity that is classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds Notes, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner will generally depend on the status of the partner and upon the activities of the partnership. Partners of partnerships holding Notes should consult with their tax advisers regarding the U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the Notes.

This summary does not address the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of every type of Note which may be issued under the Programme, such as Notes that are treated as equity for U.S. federal income tax purposes. This summary does not discuss all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to investors in light of their particular circumstances, such as investors subject to special tax rules (including, without limitation: (i) financial institutions; (ii) insurance companies; (iii) dealers or traders in stocks, securities, currencies or notional principal contracts; (iv) regulated investment companies; (v) real estate investment trusts; (vi) tax-exempt organisations; (vii) partnerships, pass-through entities or persons that hold Notes through pass- through entities; (viii) investors that hold Notes as part of a straddle, hedge, conversion, constructive sale or other integrated transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes; (ix) investors that have a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar; and (x) U.S. expatriates and former long-term residents of the United States), all of whom may be subject to tax rules that differ significantly from those summarised below. This summary does not address U.S. federal estate, gift, net investment or alternative minimum tax considerations, or non-U.S., state or local tax considerations.

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 95 – Hogan Lovells

------

Persons considering the purchase of the Notes should consult the applicable Pricing Supplement for any additional discussion regarding U.S. federal income taxation and should consult their tax advisers with regard to the application of the U.S. federal income tax laws to their particular situations as well as any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.

*Payments of Interest* 

*General.* Interest on a Note, including the payment of any additional amounts (whether payable in U.S. dollars or a currency, composite currency or basket of currencies other than U.S. dollars (a "**foreign currency**")), other than interest on a "Discount Note" that is not "qualified stated interest" (each as defined below under "*Original Issue Discount – General*"), will be taxable to a U.S. Holder as ordinary income at the time it is received or accrued, in accordance with the U.S. Holder's regular method of accounting for tax purposes. Interest paid on the Notes issued under the Programme and OID (as defined below), if any, accrued with respect to such Notes (as described below under "*Original Issue Discount*") and payments of any additional amounts will generally constitute income from sources within the United States.

*Foreign Currency Denominated Interest*. If a qualified stated interest payment is denominated in, or determined by reference to, a foreign currency, the amount of income recognised by a cash basis U.S. Holder will be the U.S. dollar value of the interest payment, based on the exchange rate in effect on the date of receipt, regardless of whether the payment is in fact converted into U.S. dollars.

An accrual basis U.S. Holder may determine the amount of income recognised with respect to an interest payment denominated in, or determined by reference to, a foreign currency in accordance with either of two methods. Under the first method, the amount of income accrued will be based on the average exchange rate in effect during the interest accrual period (or, with respect to an accrual period that spans two taxable years of a U.S. Holder, the part of the period within the taxable year).

Under the second method, the U.S. Holder may elect to determine the amount of income accrued on the basis of the exchange rate in effect on the last day of the accrual period or, in the case of an accrual period that spans two taxable years, the exchange rate in effect on the last day of the part of the period within the taxable year. Additionally, if a payment of interest is actually received within five business days of the last day of the accrual period or taxable year, an electing accrual basis U.S. Holder may instead translate the accrued interest into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the day of actual receipt. Any such election will apply to all debt instruments held by the U.S. Holder at the beginning of the first taxable year to which the election applies or thereafter acquired by the U.S. Holder and will be irrevocable without the consent of the IRS.

Upon receipt of the interest payment (including a payment attributable to accrued but unpaid interest upon the sale or other disposition of a Note) denominated in, or determined by reference to, a foreign currency, the U.S. Holder will recognise U.S. source exchange gain or loss (taxable as ordinary income or loss) equal to the difference, if any, between the amount received (translated into U.S. dollars at the spot rate on the date of receipt) and the amount previously accrued, regardless of whether the payment is in fact converted into U.S. dollars.

*Original Issue Discount* 

*General.* The following is a summary of the principal U.S. federal income tax consequences of the ownership of Notes issued with original issue discount ("**OID**").

A Note, other than a Note with a term of one year or less (a "**Short-Term Note**"), will be treated as issued with OID (a "**Discount Note**") if the excess of the Note's "stated redemption price at maturity" over its issue price is greater than or equal to a de minimis amount (0.25% of the Note's stated redemption price at maturity multiplied by the number of complete years to its maturity). An obligation that provides for the payment of amounts other than qualified stated interest before maturity (an "**instalment obligation**") will be treated as a Discount Note if the excess of the Note's stated redemption price at maturity over its issue price is equal to or greater than 0.25% of the Note's stated redemption price at maturity multiplied by the weighted average maturity of the Note. A Note's weighted

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 96 – Hogan Lovells

------

average maturity is the sum of the following amounts determined for each payment on a Note (other than a payment of qualified stated interest): (i) the number of complete years from the issue date until the payment is made multiplied by; (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the payment and the denominator of which is the Note's stated redemption price at maturity. Generally, the "issue price" of a Note will be the first price at which a substantial amount of such Notes included in the issue of which the Note is a part is sold to persons other than bond houses, brokers or similar persons or organisations acting in the capacity of underwriters, placement agents or wholesalers. The "stated redemption price at maturity" of a Note is the total of all payments provided by the Note that are not payments of "qualified stated interest". A "qualified stated interest" payment is generally any one of a series of stated interest payments on a Note that are unconditionally payable at least annually at a single fixed rate (with certain exceptions for lower rates paid during some periods) or a variable rate (in the circumstances described below under "Original Issue Discount – Variable Interest Rate Notes"), applied to the outstanding principal amount of the Note. Solely for the purpose of determining whether a Note has OID, the Issuer will be deemed to exercise any call option that has the effect of decreasing the yield on the Note, and the U.S. Holder will be deemed to exercise any put option that has the effect of increasing the yield on the Note. If a Note has de minimis OID, a U.S. Holder must include the de minimis amount in income as stated principal payments are made on the Note, unless the holder makes the election described below under "Original Issue Discount – Election to Treat All Interest as Original Issue Discount". A U.S. Holder can determine the includible amount with respect to each such payment by multiplying the total amount of the Note's de minimis OID by a fraction equal to the amount of the principal payment made divided by the stated principal amount of the Note.

U.S. Holders holding Discount Notes must generally include OID in income calculated on a constant-yield method before the receipt of cash attributable to the income and will generally have to include in income increasingly greater amounts of OID over the life of the Discount Notes. The amount of OID includible in income by a U.S. Holder with respect to a Discount Note is the sum of the daily portions of OID with respect to the Discount Note for each day during the taxable year or portion of the taxable year on which the U.S. Holder holds the Discount Note ("**accrued OID**"). The daily portion is determined by allocating to each day in any "accrual period" a pro rata portion of the OID allocable to that accrual period. Accrual periods with respect to a Discount Note may be of any length selected by the U.S. Holder and may vary in length over the term of the Discount Note as long as (i) no accrual period is longer than one year and (ii) each scheduled payment of interest or principal on the Discount Note occurs on either the final or first day of an accrual period. The amount of OID allocable to an accrual period equals the excess of (a) the product of the Discount Note's adjusted issue price at the beginning of the accrual period and the Discount Note's yield to maturity (determined on the basis of compounding at the close of each accrual period and properly adjusted for the length of the accrual period) over (b) the sum of the payments of qualified stated interest on the Discount Note allocable to the accrual period. The "adjusted issue price" of a Discount Note at the beginning of any accrual period is the issue price of the Note increased by (x) the amount of accrued OID for each prior accrual period and decreased by (y) the amount of any payments previously made on the Note that were not qualified stated interest payments.

*Acquisition Premium.* A U.S. Holder that purchases a Discount Note for an amount less than or equal to the sum of all amounts payable on the Note after the purchase date, other than payments of qualified stated interest, but in excess of its adjusted issue price (any such excess being "acquisition premium") and that does not make the election described below under "Original Issue Discount – Election to Treat All Interest as Original Issue Discount", is permitted to reduce the daily portions of OID by a fraction, the numerator of which is the excess of the U.S. Holder's adjusted basis in the Note immediately after its purchase over the Note's adjusted issue price and the denominator of which is the excess of the sum of all amounts payable on the Note after the purchase date, other than payments of qualified stated interest, over the Note's adjusted issue price.

*Market Discount.* A Note, other than a Short-Term Note, will generally be treated as purchased at a market discount (a "**Market Discount Note**") if the Note's stated redemption price at maturity or, in the case of a Discount Note, the Note's "revised issue price" exceeds the amount for which the U.S. Holder purchased the Note by at least 0.25% of the Note's stated redemption price at maturity or revised issue price, respectively, multiplied by the number of

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 97 – Hogan Lovells

------

complete years to the Note's maturity (or, in the case of a Note that is an instalment obligation, the Note's weighted average maturity). If this excess is not sufficient to cause the Note to be a Market Discount Note, then the excess constitutes "de minimis market discount" and such Note is not subject to the rules discussed in the following paragraphs. For this purpose, the "revised issue price" of a Note generally equals its issue price, increased by the amount of any OID that has accrued on the Note and decreased by the amount of any payments previously made on the Note that were not qualified stated interest payments.

Any gain recognised on the maturity or disposition of a Market Discount Note (including any payment on a Note that is not qualified stated interest) will be treated as ordinary income to the extent that the gain does not exceed the accrued market discount on the Note. Alternatively, a U.S. Holder holding a Market Discount Note may elect to include market discount in income currently over the life of the Note. This election shall apply to all debt instruments with market discount acquired by the electing U.S. Holder on or after the first day of the first taxable year to which the election applies. This election may not be revoked without the consent of the IRS. A U.S. Holder holding a Market Discount Note that does not elect to include market discount in income currently will generally be required to defer deductions for interest on borrowings incurred to purchase or carry a Market Discount Note that is in excess of the interest and OID on the Note includible in the U.S. Holder's income, to the extent that this excess interest expense does not exceed the portion of the market discount allocable to the days on which the Market Discount Note was held by the U.S. Holder. Market discount will accrue on a straight-line basis unless the U.S. Holder elects to accrue the market discount on a constant-yield method. This election applies only to the Note with respect to which it is made and is irrevocable.

*Election to Treat All Interest as Original Issue Discount.* A U.S. Holder may elect to include in gross income all interest that accrues on a Note using the constant-yield method described above under "Original Issue Discount – General" with certain modifications. For purposes of this election, interest includes stated interest, OID, de minimis OID, market discount, de minimis market discount, as adjusted by any amortisable bond premium (described below under "Notes Purchased at a Premium") or acquisition premium. If a U.S. Holder makes this election for a Note, then, when the constant-yield method is applied, the issue price of the Note will equal its cost, the issue date of the Note will be the date of acquisition, and no payments on the Note will be treated as payments of qualified stated interest. This election will generally apply only to the Note with respect to which it is made and may not be revoked without the consent of the IRS. However, if the Note has amortisable bond premium, the U.S. Holder will be deemed to have made an election to apply amortisable bond premium against interest for all debt instruments with amortisable bond premium, other than debt instruments the interest on which is excludible from gross income, held as of the beginning of the taxable year to which the election applies or any taxable year thereafter. If the election to apply the constant-yield method to all interest on a Note is made with respect to a Market Discount Note, the electing U.S. Holder will be treated as having made the election discussed above under "Original Issue Discount – Market Discount" to include market discount in income currently over the life of all debt instruments with market discount held or thereafter acquired by the U.S. Holder.

*Variable Interest Rate Notes*. Notes that provide for interest at variable rates ("Variable Interest Rate Notes") will generally bear interest at a "qualified floating rate" and thus will be treated as "variable rate debt instruments" under U.S. Treasury regulations governing accrual of OID. A Variable Interest Rate Note will qualify as a "variable rate debt instrument" if: (a) its issue price does not exceed the total non-contingent principal payments due under the Variable Interest Rate Note by more than a specified *de minimis* amount; and (b) it provides for stated interest, paid or compounded at least annually, at: (i) one or more qualified floating rates; (ii) a single fixed rate and one or more qualified floating rates; (iii) a single objective rate; or (iv) a single fixed rate and a single objective rate that is a qualified inverse floating rate.

A "**qualified floating rate**" is any variable rate where variations in the value of the rate can reasonably be expected to measure contemporaneous variations in the cost of newly borrowed funds in the currency in which the Variable Interest Rate Note is denominated. A fixed multiple of a qualified floating rate will constitute a qualified floating rate only if the multiple is greater than 0.65 but not more than 1.35. A variable rate equal to the product of a qualified floating rate and a fixed multiple that is greater than 0.65 but not more than 1.35, increased or decreased by a fixed

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 98 – Hogan Lovells

------

rate, will also constitute a qualified floating rate. In addition, two or more qualified floating rates that can reasonably be expected to have approximately the same values throughout the term of the Variable Interest Rate Note (*e.g.*, two or more qualified floating rates with values within 25 basis points of each other as determined on the Variable Interest Rate Note's issue date) will be treated as a single qualified floating rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a variable rate that would otherwise constitute a qualified floating rate but which is subject to one or more restrictions such as a maximum numerical limitation (*i.e.*, a cap) or a minimum numerical limitation (*i.e.*, a floor) may, under certain circumstances, fail to be treated as a qualified floating rate unless the cap or floor is fixed throughout the term of the Note.

An "objective rate" is a rate that is not itself a qualified floating rate but which is determined using a single fixed formula and which is based on objective financial or economic information (*e.g.*, one or more qualified floating rates or the yield of actively traded personal property). Other variable interest rates may be treated as objective rates if so designated by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the "**IRS**") in the future. Despite the foregoing, a variable rate of interest on a Variable Interest Rate Note will not constitute an objective rate if it is reasonably expected that the average value of the rate during the first half of the Variable Interest Rate Note's term will be either significantly less than or significantly greater than the average value of the rate during the final half of the Variable Interest Rate Note's term. A "qualified inverse floating rate" is any objective rate where the rate is equal to a fixed rate minus a qualified floating rate, as long as variations in the rate can reasonably be expected to inversely reflect contemporaneous variations in the qualified floating rate. If a Variable Interest Rate Note provides for stated interest at a fixed rate for an initial period of one year or less followed by a variable rate that is either a qualified floating rate or an objective rate for a subsequent period and if the variable rate on the Variable Interest Rate Note's issue date is intended to approximate the fixed rate (*e.g.*, the value of the variable rate on the issue date does not differ from the value of the fixed rate by more than 25 basis points), then the fixed rate and the variable rate together will constitute either a single qualified floating rate or objective rate, as the case may be.

A qualified floating rate or objective rate in effect at any time during the term of the instrument must be set at a "current value" of that rate. A "current value" of a rate is the value of the rate on any day that is no earlier than three months prior to the first day on which that value is in effect and no later than one year following that first day.

If a Variable Interest Rate Note that provides for stated interest at either a single qualified floating rate or a single objective rate throughout the term thereof qualifies as a "variable rate debt instrument", then any stated interest on the Note which is unconditionally payable in cash or property (other than debt instruments of the Issuer) at least annually will constitute qualified stated interest and will be taxed accordingly. Thus, a Variable Interest Rate Note that provides for stated interest at either a single qualified floating rate or a single objective rate throughout the term thereof and that qualifies as a "variable rate debt instrument" will generally not be treated as having been issued with OID unless the Variable Interest Rate Note is issued at a "true" discount (*i.e.*, at a price below the Note's stated principal amount) in excess of a specified *de minimis* amount. OID on a Variable Interest Rate Note arising from "true" discount is allocated to an accrual period using the constant yield method described above by assuming that the variable rate is a fixed rate equal to: (i) in the case of a qualified floating rate or qualified inverse floating rate, the value, as of the issue date, of the qualified floating rate or qualified inverse floating rate; or (ii) in the case of an objective rate (other than a qualified inverse floating rate), a fixed rate that reflects the yield that is reasonably expected for the Variable Interest Rate Note.

In general, any other Variable Interest Rate Note that qualifies as a "variable rate debt instrument" will be converted into an "equivalent" fixed rate debt instrument for purposes of determining the amount and accrual of OID and qualified stated interest on the Variable Interest Rate Note. Such a Variable Interest Rate Note must be converted into an "equivalent" fixed rate debt instrument by substituting any qualified floating rate or qualified inverse floating rate provided for under the terms of the Variable Interest Rate Note with a fixed rate equal to the value of the qualified floating rate or qualified inverse floating rate, as the case may be, as of the Variable Interest Rate Note's issue date. Any objective rate (other than a qualified inverse floating rate) provided for under the terms of the Variable Interest Rate Note is converted into a fixed rate that reflects the yield that is reasonably expected for the Variable Interest Rate Note. In the case of a Variable Interest Rate Note that qualifies as a "variable rate debt instrument" and provides

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 99 – Hogan Lovells

------

for stated interest at a fixed rate in addition to either one or more qualified floating rates or a qualified inverse floating rate, the fixed rate is initially converted into a qualified floating rate (or a qualified inverse floating rate, if the Variable Interest Rate Note provides for a qualified inverse floating rate). Under these circumstances, the qualified floating rate or qualified inverse floating rate that replaces the fixed rate must be such that the fair market value of the Variable Interest Rate Note as of the Variable Interest Rate Note's issue date is approximately the same as the fair market value of an otherwise identical debt instrument that provides for either the qualified floating rate or qualified inverse floating rate rather than the fixed rate. Subsequent to converting the fixed rate into either a qualified floating rate or a qualified inverse floating rate, the Variable Interest Rate Note is converted into an "equivalent" fixed rate debt instrument in the manner described above.

Once the Variable Interest Rate Note is converted into an "equivalent" fixed rate debt instrument pursuant to the foregoing rules, the amount of OID and qualified stated interest, if any, are determined for the "equivalent" fixed rate debt instrument by applying the general OID rules to the "equivalent" fixed rate debt instrument and a U.S. Holder holding the Variable Interest Rate Note will account for the OID and qualified stated interest as if the U.S. Holder held the "equivalent" fixed rate debt instrument. In each accrual period, appropriate adjustments will be made to the amount of qualified stated interest or OID assumed to have been accrued or paid with respect to the "equivalent" fixed rate debt instrument in the event that these amounts differ from the actual amount of interest accrued or paid on the Variable Interest Rate Note during the accrual period.

If a Variable Interest Rate Note, such as a Note the payments on which are determined by reference to an index, does not qualify as a "variable rate debt instrument", then the Variable Interest Rate Note will be treated as a contingent payment debt obligation. In general, final regulations that govern the U.S. federal income tax treatment of contingent payment debt obligations will cause the timing and character of income, gain or loss reported on a contingent payment debt instrument to substantially differ from the timing and character of income, gain or loss reported on a conventional non-contingent payment debt instrument. More specifically, the final regulations generally require a U.S. Holder of such an instrument to include future contingent and non-contingent interest payments in income as such interest accrues based upon a projected payment schedule and comparable (*i.e.*, estimated) yield. Moreover, in general, any gain recognised by a U.S. Holder on the sale, exchange, or retirement of a contingent payment debt instrument will be treated as ordinary income and all or a portion of any loss realised could be treated as ordinary loss as opposed to capital loss (depending upon the circumstances). A U.S. Holder who holds a Note that is treated as a contingent payment debt obligation should consult with their tax advisers for additional details, and the potential application of special rules.

*Short-Term Notes*. In general, an individual or other cash basis U.S. Holder holding a Short-Term Note is not required to accrue OID (calculated as set forth below for the purposes of this paragraph) for U.S. federal income tax purposes unless it elects to do so (but may be required to include any stated interest in income as the interest is received). Accrual basis U.S. Holders and certain other U.S. Holders are required to accrue OID on Short-Term Notes on a straight-line basis or, if the U.S. Holder so elects, under the constant-yield method (based on daily compounding). In the case of a U.S. Holder not required and not electing to include OID in income currently, any gain realised on the sale or other disposition of the Short-Term Note will be ordinary income to the extent of the OID accrued on a straight-line basis (unless an election is made to accrue the OID under the constant-yield method) through the date of sale or other disposition. U.S. Holders who are not required and do not elect to accrue OID on Short-Term Notes will be required to defer deductions for interest on borrowings allocable to Short-Term Notes in an amount not exceeding the deferred income until the deferred income is realised.

For purposes of determining the amount of OID subject to these rules, all interest payments on a Short-Term Note are included in the Short-Term Note's stated redemption price at maturity. A U.S. Holder may elect to determine OID on a Short-Term Note as if the Short-Term Note had been originally issued to the U.S. Holder at the U.S. Holder's purchase price for the Short-Term Note. This election shall apply to all obligations with a maturity of one year or less acquired by the U.S. Holder on or after the first day of the first taxable year to which the election applies, and may not be revoked without the consent of the IRS.

*Foreign Currency Notes*. OID for any accrual period on a Discount Note that is denominated in, or determined by reference to, a foreign currency will be determined in the foreign currency and then translated into U.S. dollars in the same manner as stated interest accrued by an accrual basis U.S. Holder, as described above under "*Payments of Interest*". Upon receipt of an amount attributable to OID (whether in connection with a payment of interest or the sale or other disposition of a Note), a U.S. Holder will generally recognise exchange gain or loss, which will be ordinary gain or loss measured by the difference between the amount received (translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate on the date of receipt) and the amount previously accrued, regardless of whether the payment is in fact converted into U.S. dollars.

Market discount on a Note that is denominated in, or determined by reference to, a foreign currency will be accrued by a U.S. Holder in the foreign currency. If the U.S. Holder elects to include market discount in income currently, the accrued market discount will be translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rate for the accrual period (or portion thereof within the U.S. Holder's taxable year). Upon the receipt of an amount attributable to accrued market discount, the U.S. Holder will generally recognise U.S. source exchange gain or loss (which will be taxable as ordinary income or loss) determined in the same manner as for accrued interest or OID. A U.S. Holder that does not elect to include market discount in income currently will recognise, upon the disposition or maturity of the Note, the U.S. dollar value of the amount accrued, calculated at the spot rate in effect on that date, and no part of this accrued market discount will be treated as exchange gain or loss.

*Notes Purchased at a Premium* 

A U.S. Holder that purchases a Note for an amount in excess of its principal amount or for a Discount Note, its stated redemption price at maturity, may elect to treat the excess as "amortisable bond premium", in which case the amount required to be included in the U.S. Holder's income each year with respect to interest on the Note will be reduced by the amount of amortisable bond premium allocable (based on the Note's yield to maturity) to that year. In the case of a Note that is denominated in, or determined by reference to, a foreign currency, bond premium (including acquisition premium) will be computed in units of foreign currency, and any such bond premium that is taken into account currently will reduce interest income in units of the foreign currency. On the date bond premium offsets interest income, a U.S. Holder will generally recognise U.S. source exchange gain or loss (taxable as ordinary income or loss) measured by the difference between the spot rate in effect on that date, and on the date the Notes were acquired by the U.S. Holder. Any election to amortise bond premium shall apply to all bonds (other than bonds the interest on which is excludable from gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes) held by the U.S. Holder at the beginning of the first taxable year to which the election applies or thereafter acquired by the U.S. Holder, and is irrevocable without the consent of the IRS. See also "Original Issue Discount – Election to Treat All Interest as Original Issue Discount". A U.S. Holder that does not elect to take bond premium (other than acquisition premium) into account currently will decrease the amount of gain or increase the amount of loss otherwise recognised on the disposition of the Note.

*Sale, Redemption, Retirement or Other Disposition of Notes* 

A U.S. Holder's adjusted tax basis in a Note will generally be its cost, increased by the amount of any OID or market discount included in the U.S. Holder's income with respect to the Note and the amount, if any, of income attributable to de minimis OID and de minimis market discount included in the U.S. Holder's income with respect to the Note, and reduced by: (i) the amount of any payments that are not qualified stated interest payments; and (ii) the amount of any amortisable Note premium applied to reduce interest on the Note. A U.S. Holder's adjusted tax basis in a Note that is denominated in, or determined by reference to, a foreign currency (a "**Foreign Currency Note**") will be determined by reference to the U.S. dollar cost of the Notes. The U.S. dollar cost of a Note purchased with a foreign currency will generally be the U.S. dollar value of the purchase price on the date of purchase or, in the case of Notes traded on an established securities market, as defined in the applicable U.S. Treasury regulations, that are purchased by a cash basis U.S. Holder (or an accrual basis U.S. Holder that so elects), on the settlement date for the purchase.

A U.S. Holder will generally recognise gain or loss on the sale, redemption, retirement or other disposition of a Note equal to the difference between the amount realised on the sale, redemption, retirement or other disposition and the

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 101 – Hogan Lovells

------

U.S. Holder's adjusted tax basis of the Note. For these purposes, the amount realised does not include any amount attributable to accrued but unpaid qualified stated interest on the Note. Amounts attributable to accrued but unpaid qualified stated interest are treated as payments of interest as described under *"Payments of Interest."* The amount realised on a sale or other disposition for an amount in foreign currency will be the U.S. dollar value of this amount on the date of sale, redemption, retirement or other disposition or, in the case of Notes traded on an established securities market, as defined in the applicable U.S. Treasury regulations, sold by a cash basis U.S. Holder (or an accrual basis U.S. Holder that so elects), on the settlement date for the sale. Such an election by an accrual basis U.S. Holder must be applied consistently from year to year and cannot be revoked without the consent of the IRS. Except to the extent described above under *"Original Issue Discount – Market Discount"* or *"Original Issue Discount – Short-Term Notes"* or attributable to accrued but unpaid interest or changes in exchange rates, gain or loss recognised on the sale, redemption, retirement or other disposition of a Note will be capital gain or loss and will generally be treated as from U.S. sources for purposes of the U.S. foreign tax credit limitation. In the case of a U.S. Holder that is an individual, estate or trust, the maximum marginal federal income tax rate applicable to capital gains is currently lower than the maximum marginal rate applicable to ordinary income if the Notes are held for more than one year. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to significant limitations.

Gain or loss recognised by a U.S. Holder on the sale, redemption, retirement or other disposition of a Note that is attributable to changes in exchange rates will be treated as U.S. source ordinary income or loss. However, exchange gain or loss is taken into account only to the extent of total gain or loss realised on the transaction.

*Disposition of Foreign Currency* 

Foreign currency received as interest on a Note or on the sale, redemption, retirement or other disposition of a Note will have a tax basis equal to its U.S. dollar value at the time the interest is received or at the time of the sale, redemption, retirement or other disposition. Foreign currency that is purchased will generally have a tax basis equal to the U.S. dollar value of the foreign currency on the date of purchase. Any gain or loss recognised on a sale, redemption, retirement or other disposition of a foreign currency (including its use to purchase Notes or an exchange for U.S. dollars) will be U.S. source ordinary income or loss.

*Backup Withholding and Information Reporting* 

In general, payments of principal, interest and accrued OID on, and the proceeds of a sale, redemption, retirement or other disposition of, the Notes, payable to a U.S. Holder by a U.S. paying agent or other U.S. intermediary will be reported to the IRS and to the U.S. Holder as may be required under applicable regulations. Backup withholding will apply to these payments if the U.S. Holder fails to provide an accurate taxpayer identification number or certification of exempt status or otherwise to comply with the applicable backup withholding requirements. Certain U.S. Holders are not subject to backup withholding. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld from a payment to a U.S. Holder under the backup withholding rules will be allowed as a credit against such person's U.S. federal income tax liability and may entitle such U.S. Holder to a refund, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

*Disclosure Requirements* 

U.S. Treasury regulations meant to require the reporting of certain tax shelter transactions ("**Reportable Transactions**") could be interpreted to cover transactions generally not regarded as tax shelters, including certain foreign currency transactions. Under the U.S. Treasury regulations, certain transactions with respect to the Notes may be characterised as Reportable Transactions including, in certain circumstances, a sale, redemption, retirement or other taxable disposition of a Foreign Currency Note. Persons considering the purchase of such Notes should consult with their tax advisers to determine the tax return obligations, if any, with respect to an investment in such Notes, including any requirement to file IRS Form 8886 (Reportable Transaction Disclosure Statement).

**Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act** 

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 102 – Hogan Lovells

------

Pursuant to certain provisions of the Code, commonly known as FATCA, a foreign financial institution (as defined by FATCA) may be required to withhold on certain payments it makes to persons that fail to meet certain certification, reporting or related requirements. This withholding tax could apply to all interest on Notes unless the Note holder and each non-U.S. person or entity in the chain of payment complies with the applicable information reporting, account identification, withholding certification and other FATCA-related requirements.

A number of jurisdictions have entered into, or have agreed in substance to, intergovernmental agreements with the United States to implement FATCA ("**IGAs**"), which modify the way in which FATCA applies in their jurisdictions. While the existence of such agreements will not eliminate the risk that the Notes will be subject to the withholding described above, these agreements are expected to reduce the risk of the withholding for investors in (or investors that hold Notes indirectly through financial institutions in) those countries.

Holders should consult their own tax advisers regarding how these rules may apply to their investment in Notes. In the event any withholding would be required pursuant to FATCA or an IGA with respect to payments on the Notes, no person will be required to pay additional amounts as a result of the withholding.

**Non-U.S. Holders** 

The following is a summary of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences to a Non-U.S. Holder (as defined below) of the ownership and disposition of Notes.

As used herein, the term "**Non-U.S. Holder**" means a beneficial owner of a Note that is for U.S. federal income tax purposes: (i) a non-resident alien individual; (ii) a foreign corporation; or (iii) a foreign estate or trust.

Under U.S. federal income tax law now in effect, and subject to the discussion below concerning information reporting and backup withholding:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) payments of principal and interest (including OID) on a Note by the Issuer or any of its paying agents to any Non-U.S. Holder will not be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax; provided, however, that in the case of amounts treated as interest on a Note other than a Note with a maturity of 183 days or less: (i) such holder does not actually or constructively own 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Issuer entitled to vote within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3) of the Code; (ii) such holder is not a controlled foreign corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes that is related, directly or indirectly, to the Issuer through stock ownership; (iii) such holder is not a bank extending credit pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary course of its trade or business within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code; (iv) such amounts are not considered payments of "contingent interest" described in Section 871(h)(4) of the Code (relating primarily to interest based on or determined by reference to income, profits, cash flow, sales, dividends or other comparable attributes of the obligor or a party related to the obligor); (v) the Non-U.S. Holder provides the Issuer, or its paying agent, with an IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or other appropriate type of IRS Form W-8 or other documentation as permitted by official IRS guidance); and (vi) the Non-U.S. Holder provides the Issuer, or its paying agent, any required information with respect to its direct and indirect U.S. owners as required pursuant to FATCA or, if the Notes are held through, or such holder is, a foreign financial institution (as defined under FATCA), such foreign financial institution complies with its obligations under FATCA (either pursuant to an agreement with the U.S. government or in accordance with local law) or is otherwise exempt from FATCA;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) a Non-U.S. Holder of a Note will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain realised on the sale, redemption, retirement or other disposition of a Note unless: (i) such gain or income is effectively connected with a trade or business in the United States of the Non-U.S. Holder; or (ii) in the case of a Non-U.S. Holder who is an individual, the Non-U.S. Holder is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of such sale, redemption, retirement or other disposition and either such individual has a "tax home" (as defined in Section 911(d)(3) of the

\\1091199 4159-8133-6421 v11 – 103 – Hogan Lovells

------

Code) in the United States or the gain is attributable to an office or other fixed place of business maintained by such individual in the United States; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) a Note held by an individual who at the time of death is not a citizen or resident of the United States will not be subject to U.S. federal estate tax as a result of such individual's death if at the time of death: (i) the individual did not actually or constructively own 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Issuer entitled to vote; (ii) payments with respect to the Note would not have been effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business of such individual; and (iii) no amount payable on the Note would be considered to be a payment of "contingent interest" as set forth in Section 871(h)(4) of the Code (as described in paragraph (a) above).

If a Non-U.S. Holder of a Note is engaged in a trade or business in the United States and interest on the Note is effectively connected with the conduct of such trade or business, the Non-U.S. Holder, although exempt from the withholding tax discussed in the preceding paragraph, will generally be subject to regular U.S. federal income tax on such interest in the same manner as if it were a U.S. Holder. In addition, if such a holder is a foreign corporation, it may be subject to a branch profits tax equal to 30% of its effectively connected earnings and profits for the taxable year, subject to adjustments.

*Backup Withholding and Information Reporting* 

Generally, the amount of interest and principal paid to a Non-U.S. Holder by the Issuer and the amount of tax, if any, withheld with respect to those payments must be reported annually to the IRS and to the Non-U.S. Holder. Copies of the information returns reporting such interest and withholding may also be made available to the tax authorities in the country in which a Non-U.S. Holder resides under the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty.

In general, a Non-U.S. Holder will not be subject to backup withholding or additional information reporting requirements with respect to payments of interest that the Issuer makes, provided certain certification requirements have been satisfied and the applicable withholding agent does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that the holder is a U.S. person, as defined under the Code, that is not an exempt recipient. As part of the certification requirements, a Non-U.S. Holder must provide its name and address, and certify, under penalties of perjury, that it is not a U.S. person (which certification may be made on an IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E or other applicable form) or, if a Non-U.S. Holder holds the Notes through certain foreign intermediaries or certain foreign partnerships, the Non-U.S. Holder and the foreign intermediary or foreign partnership must satisfy the certification requirements of applicable Treasury regulations.

In addition, payments on the sale, redemption, retirement or other disposition of a Note to a Non-U.S. Holder generally will be subject to information reporting and, depending on the circumstances, backup withholding with respect to payments of the proceeds of the sale or other disposition (including a retirement or redemption) of a note within the United States or conducted through certain U.S. Middlemen, as defined below, unless the certification requirements described above have been satisfied and the payor does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that the holder is a U.S. person, as defined under the Code, that is not an exempt recipient, or a Non-U.S. Holder otherwise establishes an exemption.

Non-U.S. Holders of Notes should consult their tax advisers regarding the application of information reporting and backup withholding to their particular situations, the availability of an exemption therefrom and the procedure for obtaining such an exemption, if available. Any amounts withheld from a payment to a Non-U.S. Holder under the backup withholding rules will be allowed as a credit against such holder's U.S. federal income tax liability and may entitle such holder to a refund, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

"**U.S. Middleman**" means: (i) a U.S. person; (ii) a controlled foreign corporation for U.S. tax purposes; (iii) a foreign person 50% or more of whose gross income is derived from its conduct of a U.S. trade or business for a specified three-year period; (iv) a foreign partnership engaged in a U.S. trade or business or in which U.S. persons hold more than 50% of the income or capital interests; or (v) certain U.S. branches of foreign banks or insurance companies.

**SUBSCRIPTION AND SALE**

Notes may be sold from time to time by the Issuer to any one or more of the Dealers. The arrangements under which Notes may from time to time be agreed to be sold by each Issuer to, and subscribed by, Dealers are set out in an amended and restated Programme Agreement (such Programme Agreement as amended and/or supplemented and/or restated from time to time, the "**Programme Agreement**") dated 6 March 2026 and made between each Issuer, the Guarantor and the Dealers.

Other than as disclosed in this Base Listing Particulars, there are currently no encumbrances on the Guarantor's assets that could materially affect its ability to meet its obligations under the Guarantee. Although the Guarantor may be affected by some or all the general risks set out in "*Risk Factors — Risks Related to the Group's Business*" and "*Risk Factors — Risks Related to the Group's Industry*", the Issuer and the Guarantor do not believe there are any risks specific to the Guarantor that could adversely impact on its Guarantee.

**Conflicts**

The Arranger, Dealers and their affiliates may have engaged, and may in the future engage, in investment banking and/or commercial banking transactions with, and may perform services to, the Issuer and/or the Guarantor and their respective affiliates in the ordinary course of business. The Arranger, the Dealers and their affiliates may have positions, deal or make markets in the Notes, related derivatives and reference obligations, including (but not limited to) entering into hedging strategies on behalf of the Issuer and its affiliates, investor clients, or as principal in order to manage their exposure, their general market risk, or other trading activities.

In addition, in the ordinary course of their business activities, the Arranger, the Dealers and their affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers. Such investments and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of the Issuer, the Guarantor or their respective affiliates. The Arranger, the Dealers or their affiliates that have a lending relationship with the Issuer and the Guarantor routinely hedge their credit exposure to the Issuer and the Guarantor consistent with their customary risk management policies. Typically, the Arranger, the Dealers and their affiliates would hedge such exposure by entering into transactions which consist of either the purchase of credit default swaps or the creation of short positions in securities, including potentially the Notes. Any such short positions could adversely affect future trading prices of Notes. The Arranger, the Dealers and their affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or financial instruments and may hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) to fund or facilitate directly or indirectly any activities or business of or with or involving any Person or in or involving any country or territory that, at the time of such funding or facilitation, is the target of Sanctions; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) in any other manner that will result in a violation of Sanctions by any Person (including any Person participating in the offering, whether as underwriter, advisor, investor or otherwise).

**5.13 Use of Proceeds**

The Issuer undertakes that it will use the net proceeds received by it from the issue of any Notes in the manner specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement.

**5.14 Announcements**

Each of the Issuer and the Guarantor undertakes that it will not, between the Agreement Date and the Issue Date of the relevant Notes (both dates inclusive), without the prior approval of the relevant Dealer or the Lead Manager on behalf of the Managers (where more than one Dealer has agreed to purchase a particular Tranche of Notes), make any announcement which could have a material adverse effect on the marketability of the Notes, *provided that*, the undertaking in this subclause 5.14 does not apply to the extent that neither of them is required by any applicable laws, rules or regulations (including without limitation, pursuant to the Listing Rules).

**5.15 Sustainable Financing Framework**

Each of the Issuer and the Guarantor undertakes that it will report on the use and allocation of the proceeds of any Notes issued as Sustainability Bonds (as defined in the Base Listing Particulars) in the manner, and at the times, contemplated in the Framework (as defined in the Base Listing Particulars).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) any failure by the Issuer to issue on the agreed Issue Date any Notes which a Dealer has agreed to purchase; or

 <br> DOCPROPERTY "cpCombinedRef" 0012034-0005694 UKO2: 2011694766.10 18

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) any actual or alleged breach of the representations, warranties and undertakings contained in, or made or deemed to be made by the Issuer and/or the Guarantor under, this Agreement; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) any untrue or misleading (or allegedly untrue or misleading) statement in, or any omission (or alleged omission) from, the Base Listing Particulars; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) any untrue or misleading (or allegedly untrue or misleading) statement in any additional written information provided by the Issuer and/or the Guarantor to the Dealers under clause ‎7,

the Issuer or, as the case may be, the Guarantor shall pay to that Dealer on demand an amount equal to such Loss. No Dealer shall have any duty or obligation, whether as fiduciary or trustee for any Relevant Party or otherwise, to recover any such payment or to account to any other person for any amounts paid to it under this subclause ‎6.1.

6.2 In case any action shall be brought against any Relevant Party in respect of which recovery may be sought from the Issuer and/or the Guarantor, as the case may be, under this clause ‎6, the relevant Dealer shall promptly notify the Issuer and/or the Guarantor, as the case may be, in writing but failure to do so will not relieve the Issuer or the Guarantor from any liability under this Agreement. Subject to subclause ‎6.3, the Issuer or, as the case may be, the Guarantor may participate at its own expense in the defence of any action.

6.3 If it so elects within a reasonable time after receipt of the notice referred to in subclause ‎6.2, the Issuer or, as the case may be, the Guarantor may, assume the defence of the action with legal advisers chosen by it and approved by the Relevant Party. Notwithstanding such election, a Relevant Party may employ one separate firm of legal advisers, and the Issuer or the Guarantor shall bear the fees and expenses of such separate firm of legal advisers, if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the use of the legal advisers chosen by the Issuer or the Guarantor to represent the Relevant Party would present such legal advisers with a conflict of interest;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the Relevant Party and the Issuer or the Guarantor and the Relevant Party concludes that there may be legal defences available to it and/or other Relevant Parties which are different from or additional to those available to the Issuer or the Guarantor;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) the Issuer or the Guarantor has not employed legal advisers satisfactory to the Relevant Party to represent the Relevant Party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) the Issuer or the Guarantor authorises the Relevant Parties to employ separate legal advisers at the expense of the Issuer or the Guarantor.

If the Issuer or, as the case may be, the Guarantor assumes the defence of the action, the Issuer or, as the case may be, the Guarantor shall not be liable for any fees and expenses of legal advisers of the Relevant Party incurred thereafter in connection with the action, except as stated above.

6.4 Neither the Issuer nor the Guarantor shall be liable in respect of any settlement of any action effected without its consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Neither the Issuer nor the Guarantor shall, without the prior written consent of the Relevant Party, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim or action in respect of which recovery may be sought hereunder (whether or not any Relevant Party is an actual or potential party to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an

 <br> DOCPROPERTY "cpCombinedRef" 0012034-0005694 UKO2: 2011694766.10 19

------

unconditional release of each Relevant Party from all liability arising out of such claim or action and does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of each Relevant Party.

**7. Authority to Distribute Documents and Provide Information**

Subject to clause ‎8, each of the Issuer and the Guarantor authorises each of the Dealers on behalf of the Issuer and the Guarantor to provide copies of, and to make oral statements consistent with, the Base Listing Particulars and such additional written information as the Issuer and/or the Guarantor shall provide to the Dealers or approve for the Dealers to use or such other information as is in the public domain to actual and potential purchasers of Notes.

**8. Dealers' Undertakings**

8.1 Each Dealer severally agrees to comply with the restrictions and agreements set out in ‎Appendix 2 unless otherwise agreed with the Issuer.

8.2 Without prejudice to the other rights and remedies of the Issuer or the Guarantor, each Dealer severally undertakes with the Issuer and the Guarantor that it will hold the Issuer and the Guarantor (together with each of their respective directors, officers, employees and agents) indemnified against any losses, liabilities, costs, claims, charges or expenses which any of them may incur or which may be made against any of them as a result of any breach by that Dealer of any of its undertakings contained in subclause ‎8.1 provided that, no Dealer shall be liable to hold any person indemnified under this subclause 8.2 against any losses, liabilities, costs, claims, charges or expenses, arising from the sale of Notes to any person believed in good faith by that Dealer to be a person to whom Notes could legally be sold in compliance with the provisions of ‎Appendix 2.

**9. Fees, Expenses and Stamp Duties**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) pay to each Dealer all commissions agreed between the Issuer and that Dealer in connection with the sale of any Notes to that Dealer (and any value added tax properly chargeable thereon (to the extent that the Dealer or another member of its group is required to account to any relevant tax authority for that value added tax) or other tax thereon);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) pay (together with any value added tax or other tax thereon):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the fees and expenses of its legal advisers and auditors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the cost of listing and maintaining the listing of any Notes which are to be listed on a Stock Exchange;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the cost of obtaining any credit rating for the Notes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) the costs of any sustainability bond second-party opinion issued in respect of any Sustainability Bonds and all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the maintenance of the Framework;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) the fees and expenses of the Agents, the Registrar and all other agents appointed under the Agency Agreement; and

 <br> DOCPROPERTY "cpCombinedRef" 0012034-0005694 UKO2: 2011694766.10 20

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) pay the fees and disbursements of the legal advisers appointed to represent the Dealers (including any value added tax or other tax thereon) in connection with the establishment and each update of the Programme;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) pay promptly, and in any event before any penalty becomes payable, any stamp, documentary, registration or similar duty or tax (including any stamp duty reserve tax) payable in the United Kingdom, the United States, Belgium, Luxembourg and/or Ireland in connection with the entry into, performance, enforcement or admissibility in evidence of any Note, any of the Agreements or any communication pursuant thereto and indemnify each Dealer against any liability with respect to or resulting from any delay in paying or omission to pay any such duty or tax; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) reimburse each Dealer for its costs and expenses properly incurred in protecting or enforcing any of its rights under this Agreement (including any value added tax or other tax thereon).

9.2 All payments by the Issuer and the Guarantor under this Agreement shall be paid without set-off or counterclaim, and free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future taxes, levies, imports, duties, fees, assessments or other charges of whatever nature, imposed by the United States or by any department, agency or other political sub-division or taxing authority thereof or therein, and all interest, penalties or similar liabilities with respect thereto (**Taxes**). If any Taxes are required by law to be deducted or withheld in connection with any such payment, the Issuer or, as the case may be, the Guarantor will increase the amount paid so that the full amount of such payment is received by the payee as if no such deduction or withholding had been made. In addition, each of the Issuer and the Guarantor agrees to indemnify and hold the Dealers harmless against any Taxes which they are required to pay in respect of any amount paid by the Issuer or, as the case may be, the Guarantor under this Agreement.

**10. Termination of Appointment of Dealers**

**11. Appointment of New Dealers**

Unless an appointment is made in a Subscription Agreement any appointment shall be made by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the delivery by the New Dealer to the Issuer of an appropriate Dealer Accession Letter; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the delivery by the Issuer to the New Dealer of an appropriate Confirmation Letter.

 <br> DOCPROPERTY "cpCombinedRef" 0012034-0005694 UKO2: 2011694766.10 21

------

11.2 Upon receipt of the relevant Confirmation Letter or execution of the relevant Subscription Agreement, as the case may be, each New Dealer shall, subject to the terms of the relevant Dealer Accession Letter or the relevant Subscription Agreement, as the case may be, become a party to this Agreement, vested with all authority, rights, powers, duties and obligations of a Dealer as if originally named as a Dealer under this Agreement provided that, except in the case of the appointment of a New Dealer for the duration of the Programme, following the Issue Date of the relevant Tranche, the relevant New Dealer shall have no further such authority, rights, powers, duties or obligations except for any which have accrued or been incurred prior to, or in connection with, the issue of the relevant Tranche.

11.3 The Issuer shall promptly notify the other Dealers and the Fiscal Agent of any appointment of a New Dealer for the duration of the Programme by supplying to them a copy of any Dealer Accession Letter and Confirmation Letter. Such notice shall be required to be given in the case of an appointment of a New Dealer for a particular Tranche of Notes to the Fiscal Agent only.

**12. Increase in the Aggregate Nominal Amount of the Programme**

12.1 From time to time the Issuer and the Guarantor may increase the aggregate nominal amount of the Notes that may be issued under the Programme by delivering to the Dealers (with a copy to the Fiscal Agent) a letter substantially in the form set out in ‎Appendix 4. Upon the date specified in the notice (which date may not be earlier than seven London business days after the date the notice is given) and subject to satisfaction of the conditions precedent set out in subclause ‎12.2, all references in the Agreements to a Euro Medium Term Note Programme of a certain nominal amount shall be deemed to be references to a Euro Medium Term Note Programme of the increased nominal amount.

12.2 Notwithstanding subclause ‎12.1, the right of the Issuer and the Guarantor to increase the aggregate nominal amount of the Programme shall be subject to each Dealer having received and found satisfactory all the documents and confirmations described in Part 2 of the Initial Documentation List (with such changes as may be relevant with reference to the circumstances at the time of the proposed increase as are agreed between the Issuer, the Guarantor and the Dealers), and the satisfaction of any further conditions precedent that any of the Dealers may reasonably require, including, without limitation, the production of a new Base Listing Particulars or a supplement to the Base Listing Particulars by the Issuer and the Guarantor and any further or other documents required by the relevant authority or authorities for the purpose of listing any Notes to be issued under the increased Programme on the relevant Stock Exchange. The Arranger shall circulate to the Dealers all the documents and confirmations described in Part 2 of the Initial Documentation List and any further conditions precedent so required. Any Dealer must notify the Arranger and the Issuer within seven London business days of receipt if it considers, in its reasonable opinion, that any of the documents, confirmations and, if applicable, further conditions precedent are unsatisfactory and, in the absence of such notification, each Dealer shall be deemed to consider the documents and confirmations to be satisfactory and any further conditions precedent to be satisfied.

13.3 Each of the Dealers agrees that a determination will be made in relation to each issue about whether, for the purpose of the Product Governance rules under EU Delegated Directive 2017/593 (the **MiFID Product Governance Rules**) and/or the FCA Handbook Product Intervention and Product Governance Sourcebook (the **UK MiFIR Product Governance Rules**), as applicable, any Dealer subscribing for any Notes is a manufacturer in respect of such Notes, but that, otherwise, neither the Arranger nor the Dealers nor any of their respective affiliates will be a manufacturer for the purpose of the MiFID Product Governance Rules and/or the UK MiFIR Product Governance Rules, respectively.

**14. No Fiduciary Duties**

Each of the Issuer and the Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that each Dealer is acting solely pursuant to a contractual relationship with the Issuer and the Guarantor on an arm's length basis with respect to the issue, offer and sale of the Notes (including in connection with determining the terms of the issue, offer and sale of the Notes) and not as a financial adviser or a fiduciary to the Issuer or the Guarantor or any other person. Additionally, each of the Issuer and the Guarantor acknowledges that the Dealers are not advising the Issuer, the Guarantor or any other person as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting or regulatory matters in any jurisdiction. Each of the Issuer and the Guarantor shall consult with its own advisers concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making its own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Dealers shall have no responsibility or liability to the Issuer or the Guarantor with respect thereto. Each of the Issuer and the Guarantor further acknowledges and agrees that any review by the Dealers of the Issuer, the Guarantor, the issue, offer and sale of the Notes, the terms of the Notes, and other matters relating thereto will be performed solely for the benefit of the Dealers and shall not be on behalf of the Issuer or any other person.

**15. Communications**

15.1 All communications shall be by fax, e-mail or letter delivered by hand or (but only where specifically provided in the Procedures Memorandum) by telephone. Each communication shall be made to the relevant party by using the relevant fax number, e-mail address, address or telephone number and, in the case of a communication by fax, e-mail or letter, marked for the attention of, or (in the case of a communication by telephone) made to, the person or department from time to time specified in writing by that party to the others for the purpose. To the extent available, the initial telephone number, fax number, e-mail address, address and person or department so specified by each party are set out in the Procedures Memorandum (or, in the case of a New Dealer not originally party hereto but appointed for the duration of the Programme in accordance with clause 11, specified by notice to the Issuer, the Guarantor and the other Dealers at or about the time of its appointment as a Dealer).

15.2 A communication shall be deemed received (if by fax) when an acknowledgement of receipt is received, (if by telephone) when made, (if by e-mail) when sent, subject to no delivery failure notification being received by the sender within 24 hours of the time of sending or (if by letter) when delivered, in each case in the manner required by this clause. However, if a communication is received after business hours on any business day (in the place of the recipient) or on a day which is not a business day in the place of receipt it shall be deemed to be received and become effective at the opening of business on the next business day in the place of receipt. Every communication shall be irrevocable save in respect of any manifest error in it.

15.3 Any notice given under or in connection with this Agreement shall be in English. All other documents provided under or in connection with this Agreement shall be:

**16. Benefit of Agreement**

16.1 This Agreement shall be binding on and shall inure for the benefit of the Issuer, the Guarantor and each Dealer and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

16.2 A Dealer may only assign or transfer its rights or obligations under this Agreement with the prior written consent of the Issuer and the Guarantor except for an assignment and/or transfer of all of a Dealer's rights and obligations under this Agreement in whatever form the Dealer determines may be appropriate to a partnership, corporation, trust or other organisation in whatever form that may succeed to, or to which the Dealer transfers, all or substantially all of the Dealer's assets and business and that assumes the obligations by contract, operation of law or otherwise. Upon any transfer and assumption of obligations the Dealer shall be relieved of and fully discharged from all obligations under this Agreement, whether the obligations arose before or after the transfer and assumption.

**17. Currency Indemnity**

If, under any applicable law and whether pursuant to a judgment being made or registered against the Issuer or the Guarantor or in the liquidation, insolvency or analogous process of the Issuer or the Guarantor or for any other reason, any payment under or in connection with this Agreement is made or falls to be satisfied in a currency (the **other currency**) other than that in which the relevant payment is expressed to be due (the **required currency**) under this Agreement, then, to the extent that the payment (when converted into the required currency at the rate of exchange on the date of payment or, if it is not practicable for the relevant Dealer to purchase the required currency with the other currency on the date of payment, at the rate of exchange as soon thereafter as it is practicable for it to do so or, in the case of a liquidation, insolvency or analogous process, at the rate of exchange on the latest date permitted by applicable law for the determination of liabilities in such liquidation, insolvency or analogous process) actually received by the relevant Dealer falls short of the amount due under the terms of this Agreement, the Issuer and the Guarantor jointly and severally undertakes that they shall, as a separate and independent obligation, indemnify and hold harmless the Dealer against the amount of such shortfall. For the purpose of this clause **rate of exchange** means the rate at which the relevant Dealer is able on the London foreign exchange market on the relevant date to purchase the required currency with the other currency and shall take into account any premium and other reasonable costs of exchange.

18.2 Should a request be made to the Issuer for the appointment of that Dealer or the relevant Lead Manager as the Calculation Agent, the appointment shall be automatic upon the issue of the relevant Series of Notes and shall, except as agreed, be on the terms set out in the Calculation Agency Agreement set out in Schedule 1 to the Agency Agreement, and no further action shall be required to effect the appointment of the relevant Dealer or the relevant Lead Manager as Calculation Agent in relation to that Series of Notes, and the Schedule to the Calculation Agency Agreement shall be deemed to be duly annotated to include that Series. The name of the Dealer or relevant Lead Manager so appointed will be entered in the applicable Pricing Supplement.

The name of the Nominee so appointed will be entered in the applicable Pricing Supplement.

**19. Stabilisation**

In connection with the distribution of any Notes, any Dealer designated as a Stabilisation Manager in the applicable Pricing Supplement may over-allot or effect transactions which support the market price of the Notes at a level higher than that which might otherwise prevail, but in doing so such Dealer shall act as principal and not as agent of the Issuer or the Guarantor. Any stabilisation will be conducted in accordance with all applicable regulations. Any loss resulting from over-allotment and stabilisation shall be borne, and any net profit arising therefrom shall be retained, as against the Issuer, by any Stabilisation Manager for its own account.

**20. Recognition of Bail-in Powers**

Notwithstanding and to the exclusion of any other term of this Agreement or any other agreements, arrangements, or understandings between the Issuer, the Guarantor and the Dealers (including any agreement for the issue and purchase of Notes as referred to in clause 2), the Issuer and the Guarantor acknowledges and accepts that a BRRD Liability arising under this Agreement and any agreement for the issue and purchase of Notes as referred to in clause 2 may be subject to the exercise of Bail-in Powers by the Relevant Resolution Authority and acknowledges, accepts, consents and agrees to be bound by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the effect of the exercise of Bail-in Powers by any Relevant Resolution Authority in relation to any BRRD Liability of any Dealer to the Issuer or the Guarantor, under this Agreement and any agreement for the issue and purchase of Notes as referred to in clause 2, that (without limitation) may include and result in any of the following, or some combination thereof:

**23.2 Jurisdiction**

(a) Subject to subclause (c) below, the English courts have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute arising out of or in connection with this Agreement and every agreement for the issue and purchase of Notes as referred to in clause 2, including any dispute as to their existence, validity, interpretation, performance, breach or termination or the consequences of their nullity and any dispute relating to any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with this Agreement and every agreement for the issue and purchase of Notes as referred to in clause 2 (a **Dispute**) and each party submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts.

(b) For the purpose of this subclause 23.2, the Issuer and the Guarantor each waives any objection to the courts of England on the grounds that they are an inconvenient or inappropriate forum to settle any Dispute.

**23.3 Service of process**

The Issuer and the Guarantor each agrees that failure by a process agent to notify it of any process will not invalidate service. Nothing in this clause shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

**23.4 Waiver of trial by jury**

Without prejudice to subclause 23.2, the Issuer and the Guarantor each waives any right it may have to a jury trial of any claim or cause of action in connection with this Agreement or any transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

**THIS AGREEMENT** has been entered into on the date stated at the beginning of this Agreement.

"The Securities covered hereby have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), or the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction of the United States, and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons (i) as part of their distribution at any time or (ii) otherwise until 40 days after the completion of the distribution of the Securities and except in either case in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act.

1.2 Each Dealer represents, acknowledges and agrees that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Notes and the Guarantee have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act or any other securities laws and are being offered for resale in transactions that do not require registration under the Securities Act or any other securities laws;

Supplement. The relevant Dealer agrees that it shall offer, sell and deliver such Notes only in compliance with such additional U.S. selling restrictions.

**2. Prohibition of Sales to EEA Retail Investors** 

Unless the Pricing Supplement in respect of any Notes specifies "Prohibition of Sales to EEA Retail Investors" as "Not Applicable", each Dealer represents and agrees that it has not offered, sold or otherwise made available and will not offer, sell or otherwise make available any Notes which are the subject of the offering contemplated by the Base Listing Particulars as completed by the Pricing Supplement in relation thereto to any retail investor in the European Economic Area. For the purposes of this provision, the expression **retail investor** means a person who is one (or more) of the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) whose ordinary activities involve them in acquiring, holding, managing or disposing of investments (as principal or as agent) for the purposes of their businesses; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) who it is reasonable to expect will acquire, hold, manage or dispose of investments (as principal or agent) for the purposes of their businesses where the issue of the Notes would otherwise constitute a contravention of Section 19 of the FSMA by the Issuer;

The Issuer and the Guarantor each confirms that each New Dealer shall be vested with all authority, rights, powers, duties and obligations of a Dealer in relation to the issue of the Notes as if originally named as a Dealer under the Programme Agreement provided that following the Issue Date of the Notes each New Dealer shall have no further such authority, rights, powers, duties or obligations except for any which have accrued or been incurred prior to, or in connection with, the issue of the Notes.

The principal workplace for the Executive shall be Stockholm, Sweden.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.<u>Employment Period</u>. The Company hereby agrees to employ the Executive and the Executive hereby agrees to serve the Company from the Effective Date and thereafter unless and until terminated by the Company or the Executive (the "<u>Employment Period</u>"); *provided*, *however*, that (i) the Company must give the Executive written notice of termination of the Executive's employment not less than six (6) calendar months prior to such date of termination, and (ii) the Executive must give the Company written notice of termination of her employment not less than six (6) calendar months prior to such date of termination; *provided*, *further*, *however*, that in the event of a termination by the Company for Cause pursuant to Section 10(b) hereof, the 6-month notice requirement provided in clause (i) of the foregoing provision shall not apply and the Executive's termination of employment shall be effective immediately.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.<u>Compensation and Benefits</u>.

Until otherwise changed by the Compensation Committee, the Executive's Target Bonus shall be forty-five percent (45%) of her Base Salary.

During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be eligible for equity grants under the Autoliv, Inc. Amended and Restated 1997 Stock Incentive Plan or any successor plan or plans, having such terms and conditions as awards to other peer executives of the Company, as determined by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion, unless the Executive consents to a different type of award or different terms of such award than are applicable to other peer executives of the Company.

For purposes of clauses (i) and (ii) of this definition, (x) no act, or failure to act, on the Executive's part shall be deemed "willful" unless done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive not in good faith and without reasonable belief that the Executive's act, or failure to act, was in the best interest of the Company and (y) in the event of a dispute concerning the application of this provision, no claim by the Company that Cause exists shall be given effect unless the Chairman of the Board establishes to the Board by clear and convincing evidence that Cause exists, subject to Section 10(f) hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)a reduction by the Company in the Executive's annual base salary as in effect on the Effective Date or as the same may be increased from time to time;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv)the failure by the Company to pay to the Executive any portion of the Executive's current compensation within seven (7) days of the date such compensation is due;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi)the failure by any successor to the business of the Company (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place.

A termination by the Executive shall not constitute termination for Good Reason unless the Executive shall first have delivered to the Company written notice setting forth with specificity the occurrence deemed to give rise to a right to terminate for Good Reason (which notice must be given no later than 90 days after the initial occurrence of such event), and there shall have passed a reasonable time (not less than 30 days) within which the Company may take action to correct, rescind or otherwise substantially reverse the occurrence supporting termination for Good Reason as identified by the Executive. The Executive's termination for Good Reason must occur within a period of 160 days after the occurrence of an event of Good Reason. The Executive's right to terminate employment for Good Reason shall not be affected by the Executive's incapacity due to physical or mental illness. The Executive's continued employment shall not constitute consent to, or a waiver of rights with respect to, any act or failure to act constituting Good Reason hereunder. Good Reason shall not include the Executive's death.

The failure by the Company to set forth in the Notice of Termination any fact or circumstance which contributes to a showing of Cause shall not waive any right of the Company hereunder or preclude the Company from asserting such fact or circumstance in enforcing the Company's rights hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)<u>Date of Termination</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g)<u>Compensation During Dispute</u>.

------

Company the compensation received by the Executive during the extended period pursuant to this Section 10(g).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.<u>Obligations of the Company Upon Termination of Employment</u>.

If, during the Employment Period, the Company shall terminate the Executive's employment other than for Cause, or the Executive shall terminate employment for Good Reason, then, and only if within forty-five (45) days after the Date of Termination the Executive shall have executed a separation agreement containing a full general release of claims and covenant not to sue, in the form provided by the Company, and such separation agreement shall not have been revoked within such time period, within sixty (60) days after the Date of Termination (or such later date as may be required pursuant to Section 21(c) herein), the Company shall pay to the Executive a lump sum severance payment, in cash, equal to one and a half times (1.5x) the Executive's Base Salary as in effect immediately prior to the Date of Termination. In addition, the Company shall pay all relevant social costs attributable to such lump sum severance payment, in accordance with relevant Swedish law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)<u>Death</u>. If the Executive's employment is terminated by reason of the Executive's death during the Employment Period, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to the Executive or the Executive's legal representatives under this Agreement, other than such death benefits she or they would otherwise be entitled to receive under any plan, program, policy, or practice or contract or agreement of the Company or its affiliated companies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.<u>Non-Duplication of Benefits</u>. Notwithstanding anything to contrary in this Agreement, the aggregate of any amounts payable to the Executive by the Company pursuant to Section 5 (including any compensation and benefits paid pursuant to such section during any applicable termination notice period pursuant to Section 3), Section 10(g) or Section 11 herein shall be offset and reduced to the extent necessary by any other compensation or benefits of the same or similar type, including those payable under local laws of any relevant jurisdiction, so that such other compensation or benefits, if any, do not augment the aggregate of any amounts payable to the Executive by the Company pursuant to Section 5 (including any compensation and benefits paid pursuant to such section during any applicable termination notice period pursuant to Section 3), Section 10(g) or Section 11 herein. It is intended that this Agreement not duplicate compensation or benefits the Executive is entitled to under country "redundancy" laws, the

As a condition to the receipt of such payments, the Executive must inform the Company of her base salary in her new employment on a monthly basis. No payments shall be made under this Section 13 if the Executive's employment is terminated in connection with her Retirement.

or to such other address as either party shall have furnished to the other in writing in accordance herewith. Notice and communications shall be effective when actually received by the addressee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;20.<u>U.S. Tax Code Section 409A</u>. This Section 21 shall apply only in the event that the Executive is or becomes a taxpayer under the laws of the United States at any time during the Employment Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)<u>General</u>. This Agreement shall be interpreted and administered in a manner so that any amount or benefit payable hereunder shall be paid or provided in a manner that is either exempt from or compliant with the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "<u>Code</u>") and applicable Internal Revenue Service guidance and Treasury Regulations issued thereunder. Nevertheless, the tax treatment of the benefits provided under the Agreement is not warranted or guaranteed. Neither the Company nor its directors, officers, employees or advisers shall be held liable for any taxes, interest, penalties or other monetary amounts owed by the Executive as a result of the application of Section 409A of the Code.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)<u>Definitional Restrictions</u>. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent that any amount or benefit that would constitute non-exempt "deferred compensation" for purposes of Section 409A of the Code ("<u>Non-Exempt Deferred Compensation</u>") would otherwise be payable or distributable hereunder, or a different form of payment of such Non-Exempt Deferred Compensation would be effected, by reason of the Executive's termination of employment, such Non-Exempt Deferred Compensation will not be payable or distributable to the Executive, and/or such different form of payment will not be effected, by reason of such circumstance unless the circumstances giving rise to such termination of employment, as the case may be, meet any description or definition of "separation from service," as the case may be, in Section 409A of the Code and applicable regulations (without giving effect to any elective provisions that may be available under such definition). This provision does not prohibit the vesting of any Non-Exempt Deferred Compensation upon a or termination of employment, however defined. If this provision prevents the payment or distribution of any Non-Exempt Deferred Compensation, such payment or distribution shall be made on the date, if any, on which an event occurs that constitutes a Section 409A-compliant "separation from service," as the case may be, or such later date as may be required by subsection (c) below. If this provision prevents the application of a different form of payment of any amount or benefit, such payment shall be made in the same form as would have applied absent such designated event or circumstance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)<u>Six-Month Delay in Certain Circumstances</u>. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if any amount or benefit that would constitute Non-Exempt Deferred Compensation would otherwise be payable or distributable under this Agreement by reason of the Executive's separation from service during a period in which she is a "specified employee" (as defined in Code Section 409A and the final regulations thereunder), then, subject to any permissible acceleration of payment by the Company under Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ii) (domestic relations order), (j)(4)(iii) (conflicts of interest), or (j)(4)(vi) (payment

------

of employment taxes), (i) the amount of such Non-Exempt Deferred Compensation that would otherwise be payable during the six-month period immediately following the Executive's separation from service will be accumulated through and paid or provided on the first day of the seventh month following the Executive's separation from service (or, if the Executive dies during such period, within thirty (30) days after the Executive's death) (in either case, the "<u>Required Delay Period</u>"); and (ii) the normal payment or distribution schedule for any remaining payments or distributions will resume at the end of the Required Delay Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)<u>Treatment of Installment Payments</u>. Each payment of termination benefits under this Agreement shall be considered a separate payment, as described in Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-2(b)(2), for purposes of Section 409A of the Code.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)<u>Timing of Release of Claims</u>. Whenever in this Agreement a payment or benefit is conditioned on the Executive's execution and non-revocation of a release of claims, such as the separation agreement referenced in Section 11(a) hereof, such release must be executed and all revocation periods shall have expired within 60 days after the Date of Termination; failing which such payment or benefit shall be forfeited. If such payment or benefit constitutes Non-Exempt Deferred Compensation, then, subject to subsection (c) above, such payment or benefit (including any installment payments) that would have otherwise been payable during such 60-day period shall be accumulated and paid on the 60th day after the Date of Termination provided such release shall have been executed and such revocation periods shall have expired. If such payment or benefit is exempt from Section 409A of the Code, the Company may elect to make or commence payment at any time during such 60-day period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)<u>Timing of Reimbursements and In-kind Benefits</u>. If the Executive is entitled to be paid or reimbursed for any taxable expenses under this Agreement and if such payments or reimbursements are includible in the Executive's federal gross taxable income, the amount of such expenses payable or reimbursable in any one calendar year shall not affect the amount payable or reimbursable in any other calendar year, and the reimbursement of an eligible expense must be made no later than December 31 of the year after the year in which the expense was incurred. The right to any reimbursement for expenses incurred or provision of in-kind benefits is limited to the lifetime of the Executive, or such shorter period of time as is provided with respect to each particular right to reimbursement in-kind benefits pursuant to the preceding provisions of this Agreement. No right of the Executive to reimbursement of expenses under this Agreement shall be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

IN WITNESS whereof this Agreement has been executed the day and year first above written.
