the words “asset” and “property” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect and to
refer to any and all tangible and intangible assets and properties, including cash, Capital Stock,
securities, revenues, accounts, leasehold interests and contract rights, and (v) references to
agreements or other Contractual Obligations shall, unless otherwise specified, be deemed to refer
to such agreements or Contractual Obligations as amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise
modified from time to time.

          (c) The words “hereof”, “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import, when used in
this Agreement, shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of
this Agreement, and Section, Schedule and Exhibit references are to this Agreement unless otherwise
specified.

          (d) The meanings given to terms defined herein shall be equally applicable to both the
singular and plural forms of such terms.

          (e) When determining whether a Default or Event of Default pursuant to Section 7.1 shall be in
existence after giving pro forma effect to a certain event, the covenant levels to be used in
making such determination shall be those in effect as of the last day of the most recent fiscal
quarter of the Borrower for which financial reports are required to have been delivered pursuant to
Section 6.1.

Eurodollar Loans with a ___ — month1 interest period. The Loans may from time to
time be Eurodollar Loans or ABR Loans, as determined by the Borrower and notified to the
Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.10.

call premium (the “Call Premium”) equal to 2% of the principal amount of such Lender’s
Loans repaid on or after the second anniversary of the Closing Date, such Call Premium to be
payable on the date of such repayment; provided, however, that if the outstanding
principal balance of the Lenders’ Loans are not repaid in full on or prior to the Maturity Date,
the Call Premium on such outstanding principal balance shall be payable on the Maturity Date rather
than on the date of such repayment.

          (b) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent the fees in the amounts and on the
dates as set forth in any fee agreements with the Administrative Agent and to perform any other
obligations contained therein.

any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. If any such notice
is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified
therein, together with accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid. Partial prepayments of
Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in
excess thereof. Partial optional prepayments of the Loans shall be ratable as among the Lenders
thereof.

          2.9. Mandatory Prepayments. (a) If any Capital Stock or Indebtedness shall be issued or incurred by any Group Member
(excluding any Excluded Issuance and any Indebtedness permitted by Section 7.2(a) through (s)) an
amount equal to the Equity Sweep Percentage of such Net Cash Proceeds in the case of Capital Stock

          (b) If on any date any Group Member shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale or
Recovery Event then, unless a Reinvestment Notice shall have been timely delivered in respect
thereof, an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied by or on behalf of the
Borrower promptly but no later than the end of the fiscal month following the fiscal month in which
such Net Cash Proceeds are received) toward the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in Section
2.9(e); provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds of
Asset Sales that may be excluded from the foregoing prepayment requirement pursuant to Reinvestment
Notices shall not exceed $150,000,000 in any fiscal year of the Borrower and (ii) on each
Reinvestment Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to
the relevant Reinvestment Event shall be applied toward the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in
Section 2.9(e).

          (c) If, for (i) the period from the first anniversary of the Closing Date through the end of
the then current fiscal year of the Borrower or (ii) any fiscal year of the Borrower thereafter,
there shall be Excess Cash Flow, the Borrower shall, on the relevant Excess Cash Flow Application
Date, apply the ECF Percentage of such Excess Cash Flow toward the prepayment of the Loans as set
forth in Section 2.9(e). Each such prepayment shall be made on a date (an “Excess Cash Flow
Application Date”) no later than five Business Days after the earlier of (i) the date on which
the financial statements of the Borrower referred to in Section 6.1(a), for the fiscal year with
respect to which such prepayment is made, are required to be delivered to the Lenders and (ii) the
date such financial statements are actually delivered.

          (d) Following the establishment of any Receivable Financing Transaction by the Borrower or any
of its Domestic Subsidiaries, an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof shall be
promptly applied by or on behalf of the Borrower toward the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in
Section 2.9(e).

          (e) Amounts to be applied in connection with prepayments made pursuant to this Section 2.9
shall be made ratably among the Lenders of the Loans. The application of any prepayment made
pursuant to this Section 2.9 shall be made, first, to ABR Loans and, second, to
Eurodollar Loans. Each prepayment of the Loans under Section 2.9 shall be accompanied by accrued
interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid, the Call Premium owing pursuant to
Section 2.6(a) (if applicable) and, if a Eurodollar Loan is prepaid on any day other the last day
of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall also pay amounts owing pursuant to
Section 2.18.

          (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Section 2.9 shall not apply,
and no mandatory repayment of Loans shall be required to be made pursuant hereto, until after the
First Lien Loans (and accrued interest thereon) have been repaid in full and any letters of credit
outstanding under the First Lien Credit Agreement and any outstanding First Lien Specified
Letters of Credit have been cash collateralized, in each case to the extent required under the
First Lien Credit Agreement and the documentation for the First Lien Specified Letters of Credit.

          2.10.   Conversion and Continuation Options. (a) The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Eurodollar Loans to ABR Loans by
giving the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice of such election no later than 11:00 A.M.,
New York City time, on the Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date. The Borrower may
elect from time to time to convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans by giving the Administrative Agent
prior irrevocable notice of such election no later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the
third Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date (which notice shall specify the length of
the initial Interest Period therefor), provided that no ABR Loan may be converted into a Eurodollar
Loan when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent has or
the Required Lenders have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such
conversions. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each
relevant Lender thereof.

25

 

          (b) Any Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such upon the expiration of the then current
Interest Period with respect thereto by the Borrower giving irrevocable notice to the
Administrative Agent, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period”
set forth in Section 1.1, of the length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Loans,
provided that no Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such when any Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent has or the Required Lenders have determined
in its or their sole discretion not to permit such continuations, and provided,
further, that if the Borrower shall fail to give any required notice as described above in
this paragraph or if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding proviso such
Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR on the last day of such then expiring Interest
Period. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each
relevant Lender thereof.

          2.11.   Limitations on Eurodollar Tranches. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions and
continuations of Eurodollar Loans and all selections of Interest Periods shall be in such amounts
and be made pursuant to such elections so that, (a) after giving effect thereto, the aggregate
principal amount of the Eurodollar Loans comprising each Eurodollar Tranche shall be equal to
$1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof and (b) no more than ten Eurodollar
Tranches shall be outstanding at any one time.

          2.12.   Interest Rates and Payment Dates. (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(c) and (d), each Eurodollar Loan shall bear
interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to
the Eurodollar Rate determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin.

          (b) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(c) and (d), each ABR Loan shall bear interest at
a rate per annum equal to the ABR plus the Applicable Margin.

          (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.12, upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of a Liquidity Event, interest on the Loans for the
succeeding Interest Period shall be paid, at the Borrower’s option, in cash (a “Cash
Election”) or by increasing the principal amount of the outstanding Loans (a “PIK
Election”), in each case quarterly in arrears. The
Borrower shall make an Interest Election with respect to each Interest Period by providing
prior irrevocable notice of such election (the “Interest Election Notice”) no later than
11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding the beginning of such Interest
Period. Each Interest Election Notice shall include information to the following effect: (1) the
relevant Interest Payment Date, (2) whether the Borrower is electing a Cash Election or a PIK
Election and (3) if the Borrower elects a PIK Election, the increase in the principal amount of the
Loans to be effective upon the relevant Interest Payment Date as a result of such payment and the
principal amount of the Loans outstanding as of such Interest Payment Date after giving effect to
such payment. If the Borrower shall fail to give timely notice as described above in this
paragraph, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to continue with the last Interest Election
made for the previous period (and in the case of the first Interest Election upon the occurrence of
a Liquidity Event, the Borrower shall be deemed to have made a Cash Election).

          (d) If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, on and after the date the
Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent stating that interest is to accrue pursuant
to this paragraph (d) or following acceleration of payment of the Loans, all outstanding Loans and
other Obligations under the Loan Documents (whether or not overdue at such time) shall bear
interest at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of the Loans, the rate that would otherwise
be applicable thereto pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section plus 2% or and
(ii) in the case of any other Obligation, the rate then applicable to ABR Loans plus 2%, in
each case, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) above, from the date of such non-payment until such
amount is paid in full (after as well as before judgment).

26

 

          (e) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, provided that
interest accruing pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section shall be payable from time to time on
demand.

          2.13.   Computation of Interest and Fees. (a) Interest and fees payable pursuant hereto shall be calculated on the basis of a
360-day year for the actual days elapsed, except that, with respect to ABR Loans the rate of
interest on which is calculated on the basis of the Prime Rate, the interest thereon shall be
calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days
elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the
relevant Lenders of each determination of a Eurodollar Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a
Loan resulting from a change in the ABR or the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements shall become
effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective. The
Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of
the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest rate.

          (b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any
provision of this Agreement shall be presumptively correct and binding on the Borrower and the
Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the
Borrower, deliver to the Borrower a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative
Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to Section 2.12(a).

          2.14.   Inability to Determine Interest Rate. If prior to the first day of any Interest Period:

     (a) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall
be presumptively correct and binding upon the Borrower) that, by reason of
circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not
exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period, or

     (b) the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Required
Lenders that the Eurodollar Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest
Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as
conclusively certified by such Lenders) of making or maintaining their affected
Loans during such Interest Period,

the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to the Borrower and the
relevant Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given (x) any Eurodollar
Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as ABR Loans,
(y) any Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to
Eurodollar Loans shall be continued as ABR Loans and (z) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans shall be
converted, on the last day of the then-current Interest Period, to ABR Loans. Until such notice
has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent (which the Administrative Agent shall do promptly
after the circumstances giving rise to such event no longer exist), no further Eurodollar Loans
shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to convert Loans to
Eurodollar Loans.

          2.15.   Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. (a) Except as otherwise provided herein, each payment by the Borrower on account of any
fee payable to Lenders shall be made pro rata according to the respective Outstanding Percentages
of the relevant Lenders entitled thereto.

27

 

          (b) Except as otherwise provided herein, each payment (including each prepayment) by the
Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Loans and each payment of the Call Premium
(if applicable) shall be made pro rata according to the respective Outstanding
Percentages of the relevant Lenders entitled thereto. Amounts prepaid on account of the Loans may
not be reborrowed.

          (c) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether on
account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and
shall be made prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the due date thereof to the
Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, at the Funding Office, in Dollars and in
immediately available funds. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to each
relevant Lender promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder (other
than payments on the Eurodollar Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day,
such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. If any payment on a Eurodollar
Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be
extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend
such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the
immediately preceding Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment of principal
pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable
rate during such extension.

          (d) [Reserved]

          (e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower prior
to the date of any payment due to be made by the Borrower hereunder that the Borrower will not make
such payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower is
making such payment, and the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, in reliance
upon such assumption, make available to the Lenders their respective pro rata
shares of a corresponding amount. If such payment is not made to the Administrative Agent by the
Borrower within three Business Days after such due date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled
to recover, on demand, from each Lender to which any amount which was made available pursuant to
the preceding
sentence, such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum equal to the daily average
Federal Funds Effective Rate. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the
Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrower.

          (f) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section
2.15(e) or 9.7, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary
provision of this Agreement), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for
the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such
unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

          2.16.   Requirements of Law. (a) If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or
application thereof or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not
having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority, in each case, made
subsequent to the date hereof:

	 	(i)	 	shall subject any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to
this Agreement or any Eurodollar Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of
payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for Non-Excluded Taxes covered by
Section 2.17 and changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender);
	 
	 	(ii)	 	shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit,
compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other
liabilities in or for the

28

 

	 	 	 	account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit
by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender that is not
otherwise included in the determination of the Eurodollar Rate; or
	 
	 	(iii)	 	shall impose on such Lender any other condition;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender, by an amount that
such Lender reasonably deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining
Eurodollar Loans, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any
such case, the Borrower shall promptly pay such Lender, within 30 days after receipt of a
reasonably detailed invoice therefor, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender
for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any
additional amounts pursuant to this paragraph, it shall promptly notify the Borrower (with a copy
to the Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled.

          (b) If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement
of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by
such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding
capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority, in each
case, made subsequent to the date hereof shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on
such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a
level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption,
change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with
respect to capital adequacy) by an amount reasonably deemed by such Lender to be material, then
from time to time, after submission by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such corporation for such reduction.

          (c) A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by
any Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be presumptively correct
in the absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, the
Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any amounts
incurred more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of such
Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided that, if the circumstances
giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such nine-month period shall be extended
to include the period of such retroactive effect. The obligations of the Borrower pursuant to this
Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other
amounts payable hereunder.

          2.17.   Taxes. (a) All payments made by or on account of any Loan Party under this Agreement or any other
Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on
account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges,
fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed
by any Governmental Authority (including any interest, addition to tax or penalties applicable
thereto), excluding income taxes and franchise taxes (imposed in lieu of net income taxes) and
taxes imposed on or measured by the Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s net profits if such tax
is imposed as a result of a present or former connection between the Administrative Agent or such
Lender and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political
subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising solely
from the Administrative Agent or such Lender having executed, delivered or performed its
obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or any other Loan Document).
If any such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings
(“Non-Excluded Taxes”) or any Other Taxes are

29

 

required to be withheld from any amounts payable to
the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document, the amounts so
payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to
yield to the Administrative Agent or such Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes and Other
Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts
specified in this Agreement; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be required to increase
any such amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to any Non-Excluded
Taxes (i) that are attributable to the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s failure to comply
with the requirements of paragraph (d) or (e) of this Section or (ii) that are United States
withholding taxes imposed on amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender at the time
the Administrative Agent or such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, except to the extent
that the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s assignor (if any) was entitled, at the time of
assignment, to receive additional amounts from the Borrower with respect to such Non-Excluded Taxes
pursuant to this paragraph (a).

          (b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority
in accordance with applicable law.

          (c) Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are payable by any Loan Party, as promptly
as reasonably possible thereafter such Loan Party shall send to the Administrative Agent for its
own account or for the account of the relevant Lender, as the case may be, (i) a certified copy of
an original official receipt received by such Loan Party showing payment thereof or (ii) if such
Loan Party reasonably determines that it is unable to provide a certified copy of such receipt, a
certificate as to the amount of such payment. If the relevant Loan Party fails to pay any
Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to
the Administrative Agent copies of the required receipts or other required documentary evidence,
such Loan Party shall indemnify
the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that
may become payable by the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure.

          (d) Each Lender (or Transferee) that is not a “United States Person” as defined in Section
7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Administrative Agent and the Lender
from which the related participation shall have been purchased) two copies of either U.S. Internal
Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax
treaty to which the United States is a party, Form W-8ECI or Form W-8IMY (accompanied by applicable
underlying IRS forms), or, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal
withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio
interest”, a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit F and two copies of the applicable Form
W-8, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, in each case properly completed and
duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender claiming complete exemption from, or a reduced rate of, U.S.
federal withholding tax on all payments by the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents. Such forms shall be delivered by each Non-U.S. Lender on or before the date it becomes
a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of any Participant, on or before the date such
Participant purchases the related participation). In addition, each Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver
such forms promptly upon the expiration, obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously
delivered by such Non-U.S. Lender. Each Non-U.S. Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any
previously delivered certificate to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or any other form of
certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose). Notwithstanding any other
provision of this paragraph, a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant
to this paragraph that such Non-U.S. Lender is not legally able to deliver.

30

 

          (e) A Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of non-U.S. withholding tax
under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such
jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the
Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable
law or reasonably requested by the Borrower (or the Administrative Agent), such properly completed
and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made
without withholding or at a reduced rate, provided that such Lender is legally entitled to
complete, execute and deliver such documentation and in such Lender’s reasonable judgment such
completion, execution or submission would not materially prejudice the commercial or legal position
of such Lender.

          (f) Any Lender that is a United States person as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code
shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a duly completed and signed
IRS Form W-9 (or successor form) establishing that the Lender is organized under the laws of the
United States and is not subject to backup withholding.

          (g) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole discretion (exercised in
good faith), that it has received a refund of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it
has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional
amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to
the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this
Section 2.17 with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net
of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest
(other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund);
within 45 Business Days of the determination that the Borrower is entitled to such refund
provided, that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender,
agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges
imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the
Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is
required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed
to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other
information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or to any other
Person.

          (h) Each Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand
therefor, for the full amount of any Taxes attributable to such Lender that are payable or paid by
the Administrative Agent, and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto,
whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant
Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to
any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

          (i) The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the
payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

          2.18.   Indemnity. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender for, and to hold each Lender harmless from,
any loss or expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the
Borrower in making a conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower has
given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement (other than
by operation of Section 2.14), (b) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment of or
conversion from Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with
the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making of a prepayment of Eurodollar Loans on a day
that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Such indemnification may
include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have
accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so converted or continued, for the period from the date of
such prepayment or of such failure to

31

 

convert or continue to the last day of such Interest Period
(or, in the case of a failure to convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced
on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Loans
provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included therein, if any) over (ii)
the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would have accrued to such
Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks
in the interbank eurodollar market. A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this
Section submitted to the Borrower by any Lender shall be presumptively correct in the absence of
manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of
the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

          2.19.   Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of
Section 2.16 or 2.17(a) with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use
reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another
lending office for any Loans affected by such event with the object of avoiding the consequences of
such event; provided, that such designation is made on terms that, in the sole judgment of such
Lender, cause such Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no economic, legal or regulatory
disadvantage, and provided, further, that nothing in this Section shall affect or postpone any of
the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16 or 2.17(a).

          2.20.   Intercreditor Agreement. Each Lender hereby authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent
to enter into the Intercreditor Agreement on its behalf and hereby approves and agrees to be bound
by the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement (including the subordination of its Liens on the
Collateral to the extent provided in the Intercreditor Agreement). Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, in the case of any inconsistency between this Agreement and the Intercreditor
Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern. The Lenders acknowledge that the First Lien
Loans, First Lien Specified Letters of Credit, First Lien Specified Swap Agreements and First Lien
Specified Cash Management Agreements and related obligations are secured by the Collateral, subject
to the Intercreditor Agreement, and that the First Lien Obligations may be increased from time to
time, including pursuant to the First Lien Incremental Facility or by amendment.

          2.21.   No Requirement of Lender Signatures. Each Lender listed on Schedule 1.1A shall be a party hereto in accordance with the Plan of
Reorganization and, pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, is bound hereby without the requirement
of any Lender to execute a signature page hereto.

SECTION 3. [RESERVED]

SECTION 4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

          To induce the Agents and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement, each Loan Party hereby
jointly and severally represents and warrants to the Agents and each Lender that:

          4.1.   No Change. Since the Petition Date, there has been no development or event that has had or could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (it being agreed that solely for purposes
of this Section 4.1 no change in automotive industry conditions or in banking, financial or capital
markets on and after such date which does not disproportionately adversely affect the Borrower and
its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, shall have a Material Adverse Effect).

          4.2.   Existence; Compliance with Law. Each Loan Party (a) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws
of the jurisdiction of its organization, (b) has the power and authority, and the legal right, to
own and operate its property, to lease the property it operates as lessee

32

business in which it is currently engaged, (c) is duly qualified as a foreign corporation or other
organization and in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or
operation of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification and (d) is in

          4.3.   Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. Upon entry by the Bankruptcy Court of the Confirmation Order, each Loan Party has the power
and authority, and the legal right, to make, deliver and perform the Loan Documents to which it
is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, to issue the Loans hereunder. Each Loan Party
has taken all necessary organizational action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance
of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, to authorize the
issuance of the Loans on the terms and conditions of this Agreement. No consent or authorization
of, filing with, notice to or other act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any
other Person is required in connection with the issuance of the Loans hereunder or with the
execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the Loan
Documents except (i) consents, authorizations, filings and notices described in Schedule 4.3, which
consents, authorizations, filings and notices have been obtained or made and are in full force and
effect and (ii) the filings referred to in Section 4.20. Each Loan Document has been duly executed
and delivered on behalf of each Loan Party thereto. This Agreement constitutes, and each other
Loan Document upon execution will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan
Party party thereto, enforceable against each such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, except
as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium
or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable
principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law).

          4.4.   No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the
issuance of the Loans hereunder will not violate any Requirement of Law or any Contractual
Obligation of any Loan Party and will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any
Lien on any of their respective properties or revenues pursuant to any Requirement of Law or any
such Contractual Obligation (other than the Liens created by the Loan Documents and the First Lien
Loan Documents).

          4.5.   Litigation. No litigation, investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or Governmental
Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened by or against any Loan Party
or against any of their respective properties or revenues (including with respect to the Loan
Documents) that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

          4.6.   No Default. No Loan Party is in default under or with respect to any of its Contractual Obligations in
any respect that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Default or
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

          4.7.   Ownership of Property; Liens. Except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, each Loan
Party has title in fee simple to, or a valid leasehold, subleasehold, license or other interest
in, all its real property, and good title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its other
property, and none of such property, except for minor encumbrances and defects in title that do not
materially interfere with its ability to conduct its business as currently conducted or to utilize
such properties and assets for their intended purposes is subject to any Lien except as permitted
by Section 7.3.

          4.8.   Intellectual Property. Each Loan Party owns, or is licensed to use, all Intellectual Property necessary for the
conduct of its business as currently conducted. No material claim has been asserted and is pending
by any Person against any Loan Party challenging or questioning the use of any Intellectual
Property or the validity or effectiveness of any Intellectual Property of any Loan Party, nor

33

 

does
the Borrower know of any valid basis for any such claim. To the knowledge of the Borrower, no use
by each Loan Party of any of its material Intellectual Property infringes on the rights of any
Person in any material respect.

          4.9.   Taxes. Each Loan Party has filed or caused to be filed all Federal and material state and other
material tax returns that are required to be filed and has paid all taxes shown to be due and
payable on said returns or on any material assessments made against it or any of its property and
all other material taxes, fees or other charges imposed on it or any of its property by any
Governmental Authority (except any such taxes the amount or validity of which are currently being
contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity
with GAAP (where GAAP requires such reserves) have been provided on the books of the relevant Loan
Party); no tax Lien has been filed, and, to the knowledge of the Borrower, no claim is being
asserted, with respect to any such tax, fee or other charge.

          4.10.   Federal Regulations. No part of the proceeds of any Loans, and no other extensions of credit hereunder, will be
used (a) for “buying” or “carrying” any “margin stock” within the respective meanings of each of
the quoted terms under Regulation U as now and from time to time hereafter in effect for any
purpose that violates the provisions of the Regulations of the Board or (b) for any purpose that
violates the provisions of the Regulations of the Board. If requested by any Lender or the
Administrative Agent, the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent and each Lender a
statement to the foregoing effect in conformity with the requirements of FR Form G-3 or FR Form
U-1, as applicable, referred to in Regulation U.

          4.11.   Labor Matters. Except as, in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect: (a) there are no strikes or other labor disputes against any Loan Party pending or, to the
knowledge of the Borrower, threatened; (b) hours worked by and payment made to employees of each
Loan Party have not been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other applicable
Requirement of Law dealing with such matters; and (c) all payments due from any Loan Party on
account of employee health and welfare insurance have been, in all material respects, paid or
accrued as a liability on the books of the relevant Loan Party.

          4.12.   ERISA. Except, in the aggregate, as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect, (i) each Loan Party and each of their respective ERISA Affiliates is in compliance
with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code relating to Single Employer Plans and
Multiemployer Plans and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder and (ii) no ERISA
Event has occurred during the five-year period prior to the date on which this representation is
made or deemed made with respect to any Plan. Except, in the aggregate, as could not reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, the present value of all accrued benefits under
each Single Employer Plan (based on those assumptions used to fund such Plan) did not, as of the
last annual valuation date prior to the date on which
this representation is made or deemed made, exceed the value of the assets of such Plan
allocable to such accrued benefits.

          4.13.   Investment Company Act; Other Regulations. No Loan Party is an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment
company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. No Loan Party is
subject to regulation under any Requirement of Law (other than Regulation X of the Board) that
limits its ability to incur the Indebtedness to be incurred hereunder.

incorporation of each Subsidiary and, as to each such Subsidiary, the percentage of each class of
Capital Stock owned by any Loan Party and (b) except as set forth on Schedule 4.14, there are no

outstanding subscriptions, options, warrants, calls, rights or other agreements or commitments
(other than stock options or similar equity awards granted to current or former employees or
directors and directors’ qualifying shares) of any nature relating to any Capital Stock of the
Borrower or any Subsidiary.

          4.15.   [Reserved].

Effect:

     (a) the facilities and properties owned, leased or operated by any Group Member

any such notice will be received or is being threatened;

     (c) Materials of Environmental Concern have not been transported or disposed of
from the Properties during the last five years or, to the knowledge of the Borrower,
any prior time in violation of, or in a manner or to a location that could give rise

any other document, certificate or statement furnished by or on behalf of any Loan Party to the
Administrative Agent, the Lenders or the Bankruptcy Court, or any of them, for use in connection
with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents other than any
projections or pro forma information, when taken as a whole, contained as of the date such
statement, information, document or certificate was so furnished, any untrue statement of a
material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained herein
or therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances when made. The projections and
pro forma information contained in the materials referenced above are based upon good faith
estimates and assumptions believed by management of the Borrower to be reasonable at the time made,
it being recognized by the Lenders that such projections as they relate to future events are
subject to significant uncertainties, many of which are beyond the control of the Borrower and not
to be viewed as fact and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such
projections may differ from the projected results set forth therein by a material amount.

          4.18.   Financial Statements. (a) The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its consolidated
Subsidiaries as at October 3, 2009 (including the notes thereto) (the “Pro Forma Balance

to (i) the occurrence of the Effective Date, (ii) the First Lien Term Loans made on the Closing
Date and the use of the proceeds thereof, (iii) the Loans issued on the Closing Date and (iv) the
payment of fees and expenses in connection with the foregoing. The Pro Forma Balance Sheet will have been prepared based on
the best information available to the Borrower as of the date of delivery thereof, and will present
fairly on a pro forma basis the estimated financial position of the Borrower and its consolidated
Subsidiaries as at October 3, 2009, assuming that the events specified in the preceding sentence
had actually occurred at such date.

          (b) [Reserved.]

          (c) The (i) audited consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its consolidated
Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2008 and the related statements of income and cash flow for the

correct in all material respects and fairly present the financial condition of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries on such date. All such financial statements, including the related schedules and notes
thereto, have been prepared in conformity with GAAP applied on a consistent basis, and all
liabilities, direct and contingent, of the Borrower on a consolidated basis with its Subsidiaries
on such date required to be disclosed pursuant to GAAP are disclosed in such financial statements,
subject to year-end audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes in the case of the statements
referred to in clause (ii) above.

          4.19.   Insurance. All policies of insurance of any kind or nature owned by or issued to each Loan Party,
including policies of life, fire, theft, product liability, public liability, property damage,
other casualty, employee fidelity, workers’ compensation, employee health and welfare, property and

reasonable opinion of the Borrower, is sufficient and is customarily carried by companies of the
size and character of the Loan Parties.

          4.20.   Security Documents . (a) The Guarantee and Collateral Agreement is effective to create in favor of the
Collateral Agent, for its benefit, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit
of the Lenders, a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in the Collateral described
therein and proceeds thereof. In the case of the Pledged Stock described in the Guarantee and
Collateral Agreement, when stock certificates representing such Pledged Stock are delivered to the
First Lien Agent, as bailee, (together with a properly completed and signed stock power or
endorsement), and in the case of the other Collateral described in the Guarantee and Collateral
Agreement, when financing statements and other filings specified on Schedule 4.20(a) in appropriate
form are filed in the offices specified on Schedule 4.20(a) together with payment of any filing or
recordation fees, or, with respect to after-acquired property, when the requirements set forth in
Section 6.9 have been complied with, the Collateral Agent shall have a fully perfected Lien on, and
security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Collateral and the
proceeds thereof (except for registration of and application for Intellectual Property filed
outside the United States) to the extent such Lien can be perfected by the filing of financing
statements under the applicable UCC, as security for the Obligations (as defined in the Guarantee
and Collateral Agreement), in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person (except, in
the case of Collateral other than Pledged Stock, Liens permitted by Section 7.3, and in the case of
the Collateral constituting Pledged Stock, inchoate Liens arising by operation of law and, in any
case, the Liens created
under the First Lien Loan Documents), in each case, to the extent required by the Guarantee
and Collateral Agreement.

          (b) Each of the Mortgages is effective to create in favor of the Collateral Agent, for its
benefit, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, a legal,
valid and enforceable Lien on the Mortgaged Property described therein, and when the Mortgages are
filed in the offices specified on Schedule 4.20(b), each such Mortgage shall constitute a Lien on,
and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in the subject
Mortgaged Property, as security for the Obligations (as defined in the relevant Mortgage), in each
case prior and superior in right to any other Person (except Liens permitted by Section 7.3). Part
1 of Schedule 1.1B lists, as of the date hereof, each parcel of owned real property located in the
United States and held by the Borrower or any of the Guarantors that has a fair market value
estimated in good faith by the Borrower, in excess of $5,000,000 (each, a “Mortgaged
Property”). Part 2 of Schedule 1.1B lists, as of the date hereof, (A) each parcel of owned

not listed on Part 1 of Schedule 1.1B, and (B) each material parcel of real property located in the
United States and which is leased (as lessee) or subleased (as sublessee) by the Borrower or any of
the Guarantors.

          4.21.   Solvency. After giving effect to the occurrence of the Effective Date and the incurrence of all
Indebtedness and Obligations being incurred in connection herewith and therewith, the Borrower is
Solvent.

          4.22.   Regulation H. Except as disclosed in Schedule 4.22, no Mortgage encumbers improved real property that is
located in an area that has been identified by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development as an
area having special flood hazards and in which flood insurance has been made available under the
National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended.

binding pro forma or marked-up unconditional commitment to issue a mortgagee’s title
insurance policy (or policies) insuring both the Mortgage in favor of the First Lien
Agent and the Mortgage in favor of the Administrative Agent in the aggregate amount
of the fair market value of the subject Mortgaged Property, or (y) issues a binding
pro forma or marked-up unconditional commitment to issue a mortgagee’s title
insurance policy (or policies) insuring the Mortgage in favor of the  Administrative
Agent in the same amount as the binding pro forma or marked-up unconditional
commitment to issue a mortgagee’s title insurance policy (or policies) insuring the
Mortgage in favor of the First Lien Agent and such binding pro forma or marked-up
unconditional commitment to issue a mortgagee’s title insurance policy (or policies)
contains a so called “pro-tanto” endorsement. To the extent delivered to the First
Lien Agent, the Administrative Agent shall have received evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the First Lien Agent that all premiums in respect of each such
policy, all charges for mortgage recording tax, and all related expenses, if any,
have been paid.

     (iv) To the extent delivered to the First Lien Agent, the Administrative Agent
shall have received in respect of each Mortgaged Property with a fair market value
estimated in good faith by the Borrower in excess of $5,000,000 (A) a policy of
flood insurance that (1) covers any parcel of improved real property that is
encumbered by any

40

 

Mortgage and located in a special flood hazard area, (2) is
written in an amount not less than the outstanding principal amount of the
indebtedness secured by such Mortgage that is reasonably allocable to such real
property, the fair market value of such real property as estimated in good faith by
the Borrower or the maximum limit of coverage made available with respect to the
particular type of property under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as
amended, whichever is less, and (3) has a term ending not later than the maturity of
the Indebtedness secured by such Mortgage and (B) confirmation that the Borrower has
received the notice required pursuant to Section 208(e)(3) of Regulation H of the
Board with respect to any parcel of improved real property that is encumbered by any
Mortgage and located in a special flood hazard area.

     (v) The Administrative Agent shall have received a copy of all recorded
documents referred to, or listed as exceptions to title in, the title policy or
policies referred to in clause (iii)) above which were delivered to the First Lien
Agent in connection with the First Lien Credit Agreement.

     (s) Lien Searches. The Administrative Agent shall have received the
results of a recent lien search in each of the jurisdictions where any Loan Party is
organized, and such search shall reveal no liens on any of the assets of the Loan
Parties except for liens permitted by Section 7.3 or discharged on or prior to the
Closing Date pursuant to documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent.

     (t) Filings, Registrations and Recordings. Each document (including
any Uniform Commercial Code financing statement) required by the Security Documents
or under law or reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to be filed,
registered or recorded in order to create in favor of the Collateral Agent, for its
benefit, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and for the ratable benefit of
the Lenders, a perfected Lien (or in the case of the Mortgages, a valid Lien) on the
Collateral described therein, prior and superior in right to any other Person (other
than with respect to Liens expressly permitted by Section 7.3), shall be in proper
form to the satisfaction of the Collateral Agent for filing, registration or
recordation.

For the purpose of determining compliance with the conditions specified in this Section 5, each
Lender that has accepted the distributions under the Plan of Reorganization shall be deemed to have
accepted, and to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required under this Section 5
unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from such Lender prior to the
proposed Closing Date specifying its objection thereto.

SECTION 6. AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS

          Each Loan Party hereby jointly and severally agrees that so long as any Loan or other amount

public accountants of nationally recognized standing; and

     (b) as soon as available, but in any event not later than 60 days after the end
of each of the first three quarterly periods of each fiscal year of the Borrower,

accountants or officer, as the case may be, and disclosed in reasonable detail therein and (ii)

42

 

such budget and projections with
respect to such fiscal year (collectively, the “Projections”), which
Projections shall in each case be accompanied by a certificate of the Borrower
executed by a Responsible Officer, on behalf of the Borrower, stating that such
Projections are based on reasonable estimates, information and assumptions and that
such Responsible Officer executing such certificate, on behalf of the Borrower, has
no reason to believe that such Projections are incorrect or misleading in any
material respect, and that whether or not any such Projections are in fact achieved
are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are not
within the control of the Borrower, and that no assurance can be given that such
Projections will be realized, and actual results may vary from the projected results
and such variations may be material;

     (d) concurrently with the delivery of any financial statements pursuant to
Section 6.1(a) or (b), a narrative discussion and analysis of the financial

Multiemployer Plan; and

Lender through the Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably request.

Documents required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.1, Section 6.2 or Section 6.7 may be
delivered electronically and if so delivered, shall be deemed to have been delivered on the date
received by the Administrative Agent. Each Lender shall be deemed to have received such documents
on the date on which such documents are posted on the Borrower’s behalf on IntraLinks/IntraAgency
or another relevant website, if any, to which each Lender and the Administrative Agent have access
(whether a commercial or governmental third-party website or whether sponsored by the
Administrative Agent); provided, that the Borrower shall notify (which may be by facsimile
or electronic mail) the Administrative Agent of the posting of any such documents and, at the
request of the Administrative Agent, provide by electronic mail electronic versions (i.e., soft

          6.3.   Payment of Obligations. Pay, discharge or otherwise satisfy at or before maturity or before they become delinquent,
as the case may be, all its material obligations in respect of taxes, assessments and governmental

respects with all Requirements of Law.

          6.5.   Maintenance of Property; Insurance. (a)  Keep all property useful and necessary in its business in good working order and

same general area by companies engaged in the same or a similar business.

          6.6.   Inspection of Property; Books and Records; Discussions. (a) Keep proper books of record and account in which full, true and correct entries are

opportunity to participate in any such discussion with the accountants; provided further that such
inspections shall be coordinated through the Administrative Agent so that in the absence of an
Event of Default, not more than one such inspection shall occur in any calendar year. The Agents
and the Lenders agree to use reasonable efforts to coordinate and manage the exercise of their

Documents reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, (C) 65% of the voting Capital Stock and
all non-voting Capital Stock (other than Excluded Property) of each of the Borrower’s or any of its

lesser amount as may be owned by the Borrower and its Domestic Subsidiaries), to be pledged to the
Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Documents, for the ratable benefit of the Secured
Parties, pursuant to an amendment to the Security Documents reasonably requested by the
Administrative Agent and (D) the Administrative Agent to receive legal opinions of counsel to the
Borrower acceptable to the Administrative Agent covering such matters in respect of such pledges as
the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the
First Lien Obligation Payment Date, this provision shall not apply with respect to any property
which has not been included in the “Collateral” under the First Lien Loan Documents.

     (ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, cause the Capital Stock of any Special Purpose

the First

45

 

Lien Obligation Payment Date, (i) this provision shall not apply with respect to

Borrower, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, covering such
matters in respect of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement as the Administrative Agent shall
reasonably request to be delivered to the Administrative Agent; and

          (ii) After the First Priority Obligations Payment Date, as soon as possible, cause (z) each of
the Borrower’s direct or indirect Domestic Subsidiaries (other than (A) an Excluded Subsidiary, (B)
an Immaterial Subsidiary (provided that all Immaterial Subsidiaries excluded under this
clause (B) and clause (b) of the definition of “Guarantor” shall not at any time contribute in the
aggregate more than 5% of Consolidated Assets or more than 5% of Consolidated Revenues), (C) a

connection with such mortgage, (iii) if delivered to the First Lien Agent, deliver to the Agents
legal opinions relating to the matters described above, which opinions shall be in form and
substance substantially similar to those to the First Lien Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
to avoid duplication of title insurance premiums, the requirements of this Section 6.9(d)(i) shall
be deemed satisfied if the Title Insurance Company either (A) issues a single binding pro forma

46

acquired after such date by any Loan Party (other than any such real property subject to a Lien
expressly permitted by Section 7.3(g)), as soon as reasonably possible and in any event within 60
days after such acquisition (i) execute and deliver a Mortgage, in favor of the Collateral Agent,
for its benefit, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders,

requested by the Administrative Agent, provide the Collateral Agent, for its benefit, for the
benefit of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders with (x) a binding pro forma
mortgagee’s title insurance policy or marked-up unconditional commitment to issue such insurance
covering such real property in an amount equal to the purchase price of such real property (or such
lesser amount as shall be reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent) as well as a current
map or plat of an as-built survey thereof, together with a surveyor’s certificate and (y) any
consents or estoppels reasonably deemed necessary by the Administrative Agent in connection with

up to $10,000,000 in the aggregate, (C) trust accounts, so long as such trust accounts only contain

real or personal property that has been or is to be sold or transferred by such Loan Party to such
Person or to any other Person to whom funds have been or are to be advanced by such Person on the
security of such property or rental obligations of such Loan Party unless the Net Cash Proceeds
received by such Loan Party have been used to make a prepayment of the Loans to the extent required
by Section 2.9(b) above.

its stated maturity; and provided further, that a default, event or
condition described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph (e) shall not at

outstanding principal amount (or the termination value, as applicable) of which
exceeds in the aggregate $35,000,000; or

     (f) (i) the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (other than 3% Subsidiaries)

appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian, conservator or other similar official
for it or for all or any substantial part of its assets; or (ii) there shall be
commenced against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (other than 3%
Subsidiaries) any case, proceeding or other action of a nature referred to in clause
(i) above that (A) results in the entry of an order for relief or any such

Directors of the Borrower shall authorize any action set forth in clause (i) above;

such Withdrawal Liability in a timely and appropriate manner; or (v) any other event
or condition shall occur or exist with respect to a Plan; and in each case in
clauses (i) through (v) above, such event or condition, together with all other such
events or conditions, if any, could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect; or

     (h) one or more judgments or decrees shall be entered against any Group Member
involving in the aggregate a liability (excluding any amounts paid or covered by
insurance as to which the relevant insurance company has not denied coverage) of

61

 

$35,000,000 or more, and all such judgments or decrees shall not have been vacated,
discharged, stayed or bonded pending appeal within 60 days from the entry thereof;
or

     (i) any of the Loan Documents shall cease, for any reason, to be in full force
and effect, or any Loan Party or any Affiliate of any Loan Party shall so assert, or

same effect and priority purported to be created thereby other than by reason of the
release thereof in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents; or

     (j) a Change of Control shall have occurred;

then, and in any such event, (A) if such event is an Event of Default specified in clause (i) or
(ii) of paragraph (f) above with respect to the Borrower, automatically the Loans (with accrued
interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
(including, without limitation, all amounts to be paid pursuant to Section 2.6) shall immediately
become due and payable, and (B) if such event is any other Event of Default, with the consent of
the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Required Lenders,

and payable forthwith, whereupon the same shall immediately become due and payable. Except as
expressly provided above in this Section, presentment, demand, protest and all other notices of any
kind are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower.

SECTION 9. THE AGENTS

          9.1.   Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Administrative Agent as the
agent and the Collateral Agent as the collateral agent of such Lender under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes each of the Administrative Agent
and the Collateral Agent, in its capacity as such, to take such action on its behalf under the
provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform
such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, as
applicable, by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other
powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary
elsewhere in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall not have any
duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship
with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or
liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against
the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable.

          9.2.   Delegation of Duties. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may execute any of its duties
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and
shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Neither
Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact
selected by it with reasonable care. The exculpatory provisions of this Agreement and of the other
Loan Documents shall apply to any such agent or attorney-in-fact and to their Related Parties (as
defined below).

          9.3.   Exculpatory Provisions. Neither any Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors,
attorneys-in-fact, controlling persons or affiliates (collectively, the “Related Parties”) shall be
(i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in
connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except to the extent that any of the

62

 

foregoing are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to
have resulted from its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (ii)
responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or
warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other
Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or
other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agents under or in
connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity,
effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document or for any failure of any Loan Party a party thereto to perform its obligations hereunder
or thereunder. The Agents shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to
inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions
of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of
any Loan Party.

          9.4.   Reliance by Agents. The Agents and their Related Parties shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully
protected in relying, upon any instrument, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate,
affidavit, letter, telecopy, facsimile or email message, statement, order or other document or
conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the
proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the
Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Agents. The Agents and their
Related Parties may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes
unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with
the Administrative Agent. The Agents and their Related Parties shall be fully justified in failing
or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall
first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this
Agreement, all Lenders or any other instructing group of Lenders specified by this Agreement) as it
deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any
and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take
any such action. The Agents and their Related Parties shall in all cases be fully protected in
acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in
accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all
Lenders or any other instructing group of Lenders specified by this Agreement), and such request
and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and
all future holders of the Loans.

          9.5.   Notice of Default. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or
Event of Default unless such Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to
this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a
“notice of default”. In the event that an Agent receives such a notice, such Agent shall give
notice thereof to the Lenders. The Agents shall take such action with respect to such Default or
Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by
this Agreement, all Lenders or any other instructing group of Lenders specified by this Agreement);
provided that unless and until the Agents shall have received such directions, the Agents may (but
shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to
such Default or Event of Default as they shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.

          9.6.   Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Agents nor any of their Related Parties
have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the any Agent hereafter taken,
including any review of the affairs of a Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party, shall be
deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender. Each Lender
represents to the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any
other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its
own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other
condition and creditworthiness of
the Loan Parties and their affiliates and made its own decision

63

 

to make its Loans hereunder
and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without
reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it
shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and
decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to
make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations,
property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their
affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to
the Lenders by the Agents hereunder, the Agents shall not have any duty or responsibility to
provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations,
property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or
any affiliate of a Loan Party that may come into the possession of the Agents or any of its
officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

          9.7.   Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent and its Related Parties (each, an “Agent
Indemnitee”) (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of
the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Outstanding Percentages in effect on
the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section (or, if indemnification is sought
after the date upon which the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such
Outstanding Percentages immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements of any kind (including reasonable attorneys fees and expenses) whatsoever that may at
any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted
against such Agent Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of, the Loans, this Agreement,
any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein
or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent
Indemnitee under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be
liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and
nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent
Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section shall survive
the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

          9.8.   Agent in Its Individual Capacity. Each Agent and its affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage
in any kind of business with any Loan Party as though such Agent were not an Agent. With respect
to its Loans made or renewed by it, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were
not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include each Agent in its individual
capacity.

          9.9.   Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 10 days’ notice to the
Lenders and the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the
Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the
rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall
mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former
Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated,
without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of
the parties to this Agreement or any
holders of the Loans. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent
by the date that is 10 days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the
retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the
resigning Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be
terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such resigning

64

 

Administrative Agent or any of
the parties to this Agreement or any
holders  of the Loans, and the Lenders shall
assume and perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any,
as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. After any retiring
Administrative Agent’s resignation as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 and of
Section 10.5 shall continue to inure to its benefit. The Administrative Agent may in its
discretion resign as Collateral Agent at any time it resigns as Administrative Agent.

          9.10.   Execution of Loan Documents. Pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, the Agents, on behalf of the Lenders, are empowered
and authorized to execute and deliver to the Loan Parties the other Loan Documents and all related
agreements, certificates, documents, or instruments as shall be necessary or appropriate to effect
the purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees that any action taken by the Agents or the
Required Lenders (or any other instructing group of Lenders specified by this Agreement) in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and the exercise by the
Agents or the Required Lenders (or any other instructing group of Lenders specified by this
Agreement) of their respective powers set forth therein or herein, together with such other powers
that are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be binding upon all of the Lenders.

          9.11.   Collateral Agent. (a) The provisions of Section 9 that apply to the Administrative Agent shall apply,
mutatis mutandis, to the Collateral Agent and to any successor Collateral Agent, as applicable;
provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Collateral Agent shall have the
right to appoint a successor to itself as Collateral Agent and without the consent of any Lender.

          (b) The Collateral Agent is authorized on behalf of all the Lenders, without the necessity of
any notice to or further consent from the Lenders, from time to time to take any action with
respect to any Collateral or the Loan Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain a
perfected security interest in and Liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Loan
Documents. Except for the safe custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for
moneys actually received by it hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, the Collateral
Agent shall not have any duty as to any Collateral, as to ascertaining or taking action with
respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, trades or other matters relative to any
Collateral, whether or not the Collateral Agent is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or as
to taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties or any other rights
pertaining to any Collateral (including the filing of UCC Financing and Continuation Statements).
The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised appropriate and due care in the custody and
preservation of any Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment
substantially equal to that which other collateral agents accord similar property.

          (c) Each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, in its capacity as an agent
under the Intercreditor Agreement, shall be entitled to all right, privileges, protections,
immunities, benefits and indemnities provided to the Administrative Agent under this Section 9.

SECTION 10. MISCELLANEOUS

          10.1.   Amendments and Waivers. (a) Neither this Agreement, any other Loan Document, nor any terms hereof or thereof may
be amended, supplemented or modified except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.1.
The Required Lenders and each Loan Party party to the relevant Loan Document may, or, with the
written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and each Loan Party party to the
relevant Loan Document may, from time to time, (a) enter into written amendments, supplements or
modifications hereto and to the other Loan Documents for the purpose of adding any provisions to
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or
of the Loan Parties hereunder or thereunder or (b) waive, on such

65

 

terms and conditions as the
Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, may specify in such instrument,
any of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any Default or Event of
Default and its consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such
amendment, supplement or modification shall (i) forgive the principal amount or extend the final
scheduled date of maturity of any Loan, extend the scheduled date of any principal amortization
payment in respect of any Loan, reduce the stated rate of any interest or fee payable hereunder
(except (x) in connection with the waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest
rates (which waiver shall be effective with the consent of the Required Lenders), (y) in connection
with the waiver or extension of any mandatory prepayment hereunder, and (z) that any amendment or
modification of defined terms used in the financial covenants in this Agreement shall not
constitute a reduction in the rate of interest or fees for purposes of this clause (i)) or extend
the scheduled date of any payment thereof, in each case without the written consent of each Lender
directly affected thereby; (ii) eliminate or reduce the voting rights of any Lender under this
Section 10.1 without the written consent of such Lender; (iii) reduce any percentage specified in
the definition of Required Lenders or consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any
of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, in each case
without the written consent of all Lenders; (iv) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 9
or any other provision of any Loan Document that affects the Administrative Agent without the
written consent of the Administrative Agent; or (v) release all or substantially all of the
Collateral securing the Obligations or release all or substantially all of the Guarantors from
their obligations under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, in each case without the consent of
each Lender. Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply
equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Loan Parties, the Lenders, the
Administrative Agent and all future holders of the Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Loan
Parties, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be restored to their former position and
rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived
shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent
or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon.

          (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may amend or supplement the
Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents without the consent of any Lender or the
Required Lenders (but with the consent of the Borrower to the extent required under the
Intercreditor Agreement and the Security Documents) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency
in the Intercreditor Agreement or the Security Documents.

          (c) The Borrower shall be permitted to replace any Lender that requests any payment under
Section 2.16 or 2.17(a) or that does not consent to any proposed amendment, supplement,
modification, consent or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that
requires the consent of each of the Lenders or each of the Lenders affected thereby (so long as the
consent of the Required Lenders has been obtained), with a replacement financial institution;
provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (ii) the
replacement financial institution
shall purchase, at par, all Loans and other amounts owing to such replaced Lender on or prior
to the date of replacement, (iii) the Borrower shall be liable to such replaced Lender under
Section 2.18 if any Eurodollar Loan owing to such replaced Lender shall be purchased other than on
the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (iv) the replacement financial institution
shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (v) the replaced Lender shall be
obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6
(provided that the Borrower shall be obligated to pay the processing and recordation fee
referred to therein) and (vi) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights
that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced
Lender.

66

 

          (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended with the written consent of
the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Term
Loans (as defined below) to permit the refinancing of all or a portion of the Loans outstanding
hereunder (“Refinanced Terms Loans”) with a replacement term loan tranche hereunder which
shall be Loans hereunder (“Replacement Term Loans”); provided that (i) the
aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the aggregate principal
amount of such Refinanced Term Loans, (ii) the weighted average life to maturity of such
Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of such
Refinanced Term Loans at the time of such refinancing and (iii) all other terms applicable to such
Replacement Term Loans shall be substantially identical to, or less favorable to the Lenders
providing, such Replacement Term Loans than, those applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans, except
to the extent necessary to provide for covenants and other terms applicable to any period after the
latest final maturity of any Loans in effect immediately prior to such refinancing.

          Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by
electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent;
provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices pursuant to Section 2 unless
otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Lender. The Administrative Agent
or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it
hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that
approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.

          10.3.   No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent,
the Collateral Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under the
other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of
any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or
the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and
privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and
privileges provided by law.

          10.4.   Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder, in the other Loan Documents and in any
document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall
survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans and other

68

 

          10.5.   Payment of Expenses and Taxes. The Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse each Agent for all its reasonable,
out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation and
execution of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, this Agreement, the other Loan
Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the
consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the
reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and any financial advisor or third party consultants
or appraisers to and each Agent and filing and recording fees and expenses, with statements with
respect to the foregoing to be submitted to the Borrower prior to the Closing Date (in the case of
amounts to be paid on the Closing Date) and from time to time thereafter on such other periodic
basis as each Agent shall deem appropriate, (b) to pay or reimburse each Lender and each Agent for
all its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or
preservation of any rights under this Agreement, including in connection with any work-out,
restructuring, forbearance or other amendment providing relief to the Borrower, the other Loan
Documents and any such other documents related thereto, including the reasonable fees and
disbursements of counsel and any financial advisor or third party consultants or appraisers to each
Agent and the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the several Lenders; provided
that, in the case of clauses (a) and (b), the Borrower shall not be obligated to so reimburse for
more than one law firm (and, in addition to such law firm, any local counsel engaged in each
relevant jurisdiction by such law firm) as counsel for the Lenders and the Agents, (c) to pay,
indemnify, and hold each Lender and each Agent harmless from, any and all recording and filing
fees, if any, that may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and
delivery of, or consummation or administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any
amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, this
Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents related thereto, and (d) to pay,
indemnify, and hold each Lender and each Agent and their respective officers, directors, employees,
affiliates, agents, advisors, trustees and controlling persons (each, an “Indemnitee”) harmless
from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever arising out of
any litigation, investigation or proceeding with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement,
performance and administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other
documents and instruments referred to therein, including any of the foregoing relating to the use
of proceeds of the Loans or the violation of, noncompliance with or liability under, any
Environmental Law applicable to the operations of any Group Member or any of the Properties and the
reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel in connection with claims, actions or
proceedings by any Indemnitee against any Loan Party under any Loan Document (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), provided, that
the Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified
Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities are found by a final and nonappealable
decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith
or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. Without limiting the foregoing, and to the extent
permitted by applicable law, the Borrower agrees not
to assert and to cause its Subsidiaries not to
assert, and hereby waives and agrees to cause its Subsidiaries to waive, all rights for
contribution or any other rights of recovery with respect to all claims, demands, penalties, fines,
liabilities, settlements, damages, costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature, under or related
to Environmental Laws, that any of them might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnitee.
All amounts due under this Section 10.5 shall be payable not later than 10 days after a reasonably
detailed written demand therefor. Statements payable by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 10.5
shall be submitted to Shari Burgess (Telecopy No. (248) 447-1593; Telephone No. 248-447-1580; and
Email: sburgess@lear.com), at the address of the Borrower set forth in Section 10.2, or to such
other Person or address as may be hereafter designated by the Borrower in a written notice to the
Administrative Agent. The agreements in this Section 10.5 shall survive repayment of the Loans and
all other amounts payable hereunder.

69

 

          10.6.   Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the
Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without
the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower
without such consent shall be null and void), (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its
rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section and (iii) no Lender may
assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder to any Loan Party or any of its
Affiliates.

          (b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below and subject to
paragraph (a)(iii) above, any Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees (each, an
“Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including
all or a portion of the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent of the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower, provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent
or the Borrower shall be required for an assignment of all or any portion of a Loan to a Lender, an
affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund and no consent of the Borrower shall be required if an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; and

     (ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

     (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an affiliate of a Lender or an
Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s
Loans, the amount of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment
(determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is
delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000 unless the
Administrative Agent otherwise consents;

     (B) (1) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative
Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of
$3,500 and (2) the assigning Lender shall have paid in full any amounts owing by it to the
Administrative Agent; and

     (C) the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative
Agent an administrative questionnaire in which the Assignee designates one or more credit
contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public
information about the Borrower and its Affiliates and their related parties or their
respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in
accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal
and state securities laws.

     (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) below,
from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the Assignee
thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such
Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this
Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest
assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this
Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party
hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.16, 2.17, 2.18 and
10.5). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this
Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.6 shall be treated for purposes of this
Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in
accordance with and to the extent permitted by paragraph (c) of this Section.

70

 

     (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower,
shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to
it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the
Loan Amounts of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the
terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall
be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each
Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender
hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The
Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any
reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

     (v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an
assigning Lender and an Assignee, the Assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire
(unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation
fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment
required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such
Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No
assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in
the Register as provided in this paragraph.

          (c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell
participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion
of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the
Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall
remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for
the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other
Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which a Lender
sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce
this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement; provided that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the
consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) requires
the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby pursuant to the proviso to the second
sentence of Section 10.1 and (2) directly affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii)
of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of
Sections 2.16, 2.17 and 2.18 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its
interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law,
each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.7(b) as though it were a
Lender, provided such Participant shall be subject to Section 10.7(a) as though it were a
Lender.

     (ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section
2.16, 2.17 or 2.18 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with
respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation
to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. Any Participant
that is a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17 unless such
Participant complies with Section 2.17(d).

     (iii) In the event that any Lender sells a participation in a Loan, such Lender shall,
acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it
enters the name and address of all participants in the Loans held by it and the principal
amount (and stated interest thereon) of the portion of the Loan which is the subject of the
participation (the “Participation Register”). A Loan may be participated in whole
or in part only by registration of

71

 

such participation on the Participation Register. Any
transfer of such participation may be effected only by the Registration of such transfer on
the Participation Register. The entries in the Participation Register shall be conclusive
absent manifest error and such Lender shall treat such participants whose name is recorded
in the Participation Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this
Agreement, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. The Participation Register shall be
available for inspection by the Administrative Agent at any reasonable time upon reasonable
prior notice.

          (d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of
its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or
assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any
such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or
assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or
substitute any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

          (e) The Borrower, upon receipt of written notice from the relevant Lender, agrees to issue
Notes to any Lender requiring Notes to facilitate transactions of the type described in paragraph
(d) above.

          (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Conduit Lender may assign any or all of the Loans it
may have received hereunder to its designating Lender without the consent of the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent and without regard to the limitations set forth in Section 10.6(b) (but with
regard to the requirements set forth in Section 10.6(b)(iv)). Each of the Borrower, each Lender
and the Administrative Agent hereby confirms that it will not institute against a Conduit Lender or
join any other Person in instituting against a Conduit Lender any bankruptcy, reorganization,
arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding under any state bankruptcy or similar law, for
one year and one day after the payment in full of the latest maturing commercial paper note issued
by such Conduit Lender; provided, however, that each Lender designating any Conduit Lender
hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each other party hereto for any loss, cost,
damage or expense arising out of its inability to institute such a proceeding against such Conduit
Lender during such period of forbearance.

          10.7.   Adjustments; Set-off. (a) Except to the extent that this Agreement, any other Loan Document or a court order
expressly provides for payments to be allocated to a particular Lender or Lenders (including
assignments made pursuant to Section 10.6), if any Lender (a “Benefited Lender”) shall, at any time
after the Loans and other amounts payable hereunder shall immediately become due and payable
pursuant to Section 8, receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it, or
receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, or
otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other
Lender, if any, in respect of the Obligations owing to such other Lender, such Benefited Lender
shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of the
Obligations owing to each such other Lender, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits
of any such collateral, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess
payment or benefits of such collateral ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if
all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited
Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the
extent of such recovery, but without interest.

          (b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, but subject to the
Intercreditor Agreement, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to the Borrower or
the Guarantors, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower and the Guarantors to the
extent permitted by applicable law, upon any Obligations becoming due and payable by the Borrower
or the Guarantors hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), to

72

 

set
off and appropriate and apply against such Obligations any and all deposits (general or special,
time or demand, provisional or final but not any trust or fiduciary account), in any currency, and
any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or
indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or
any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or the Guarantors,
as the case may be. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure
to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

          10.8.   Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any
number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to
constitute one and the same instrument; provided that, pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, the
Lenders are automatically made parties to this Agreement without executing this Agreement.
Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by email or facsimile transmission shall
be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. A set of the copies of this
Agreement signed by the Borrower and the Agents shall be lodged with the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent.

          10.9.   Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction
shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or
unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in
any other jurisdiction.

          10.10.   Integration. The Plan of Reorganization, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the
entire agreement of the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the
Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises,
undertakings, representations or warranties by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, or
any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or
in the other Loan Documents.

          10.11.   GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE
GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

          10.12.   Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

     (a) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding
relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, or
for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the
non-exclusive general jurisdiction of (i) any State or Federal court of competent
jurisdiction sitting in New York County, New York; and (ii) appellate courts from
any thereof;

     (b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts
and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such
action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought
in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same;

73

 

     (c) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be
effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any
substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to such Loan Party at its
address set forth in Section 10.2 or at such other address of which the
Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto;

     (d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of
process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to sue in any
other jurisdiction; and

     (e) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have
to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section
any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.

          10.13.   Acknowledgements. Each Loan Party hereby acknowledges that:

     (a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery
of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

     (b) none of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent nor any Lender has
any fiduciary relationship with or duty to any Loan Party arising out of or in
connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the
relationship
between Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and Lenders, on one hand,
and the Loan Parties, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is
solely that of debtor and creditor; and

     (c) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or
otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Lenders
or among the Loan Parties and the Lenders.

          10.14.   Releases of Guarantees and Liens. (a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document,
each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by each
Lender (without requirement of notice to or consent of any Lender except as expressly required by
Section 10.1) to take any action requested by the Borrower having the effect of releasing, or
subordinating any Lien on, any Collateral or guarantee obligations (i) to the extent necessary to
permit consummation of any transaction not prohibited by any Loan Document or that has been
consented to in accordance with Section 10.1 or (ii) under the circumstances described in paragraph
(b) below.

          (b) At such time as the Loans and the other obligations under the Loan Documents (other than
obligations under or in respect of Specified Letters of Credit and Specified Swap Agreements and
any contingent indemnification obligations) shall have been paid in full, the Collateral shall be
released from the Liens created by the Loan Documents, and all obligations related thereto (other
than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Agent and each Loan Party shall terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or
performance of any act by any Person.

          10.15.   Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees to keep confidential all non-public
information provided to it by any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent or any Lender pursuant to or
in connection with this Agreement that is designated by the provider thereof as confidential;
provided that nothing herein shall prevent the Administrative Agent or any Lender from

74

 

disclosing
any such information (a) to the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or any affiliate thereof,
(b) subject to an agreement to comply with the provisions of this Section, to any actual or
prospective Transferee or any direct or indirect counterparty to any Swap Agreement (or any
professional advisors to such counterparty), (c) to its employees, officers, directors, agents,
attorneys, accountants and other professional advisors or those of any of its affiliates, provided
that such Persons have been advised of the confidentiality provisions hereof and are subject
thereto, (d) upon the request or demand of any Governmental Authority, (e) in response to any order
of any court or other Governmental Authority or as may otherwise be required pursuant to any
Requirement of Law, (f) if requested or required to do so in connection with any litigation or
similar proceeding, (g) that has been publicly disclosed, (h) to the National Association of
Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that
requires access to information about a Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings
issued with respect to such Lender, or (i) in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder
or under any other Loan Document.

          Each Lender acknowledges that information furnished to it pursuant to this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents may include material non-public information concerning the Borrower and its
Affiliates and their related parties or their respective securities, and confirms that it has
developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and that it
will handle such
material non-public information in accordance with those procedures and applicable law,
including Federal and state securities laws.

          All information, including requests for waivers and amendments, furnished by the Borrower or
the Administrative Agent pursuant to, or in the course of administering, this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents will be syndicate-level information, which may contain material non-public
information about the Borrower and its Affiliates and their related parties or their respective
securities. Accordingly, each Lender represents to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that
it has identified in its administrative questionnaire a credit contact who may receive information
that may contain material non-public information in accordance with its compliance procedures and
applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws.

          10.16.   WAIVERS OF JURY TRIAL. THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND
UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR
ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

          10.17.   USA Patriot Act. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA
Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”),
it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which
information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow
such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act.

LEAR CORPORATION

2009 LONG-TERM STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

Article 1. Establishment, Objectives and Duration

     1.1 Establishment of the Plan. Lear Corporation, a Delaware corporation, hereby establishes
its long-term stock incentive compensation plan, to be known as the “2009 Lear Corporation
Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan” as set forth in this document. Capitalized terms used but not
otherwise defined herein will have the meanings given to them in Article 2. The Plan permits the
grant of Nonqualified Stock Options, Incentive Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted
Stock, Restricted Units, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Shares, Performance Units and other
cash and equity incentive awards.

     The Plan is effective as of November 9, 2009, and will remain in effect as provided in Section
1.3 hereof.

     1.2 Objectives of the Plan. The objectives of the Plan are to optimize the profitability and
growth of the Company through long-term incentives that are consistent with the Company’s
objectives and that link the interests of Participants to those of the Company’s shareholders; to
provide Participants with an incentive for excellence in individual performance; to promote
teamwork among Participants; and to give the Company a significant advantage in attracting and
retaining officers, key employees and directors.

     The Plan is further intended to provide flexibility to the Company in its ability to motivate,
attract and retain the services of Participants who make significant contributions to the Company’s
success, and to allow Participants to share in the success of the Company.

     1.3 Duration of the Plan. The Plan will commence on the Effective Date, as defined in Article
2, and will remain in effect, subject to the right of the Committee to amend or terminate the Plan
at any time pursuant to Article 15, until all Shares subject to it pursuant to Article 4 have been
issued or transferred according to the Plan’s provisions. In no event may an Award be granted
under the Plan on or after the ten year anniversary of the Effective Date.

Article 2. Definitions

     Whenever used in the Plan, the following terms have the meanings set forth below, and when the
meaning is intended, the initial letter of the word is capitalized:

-1-

 

     “Affiliates” means any corporation (or partnership, limited liability company, joint venture,
or other enterprise) of which the Company owns or controls, directly or indirectly, at least fifty
percent of the outstanding shares of stock normally entitled to vote for the election of directors
(or comparable equity participation and voting power). Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes
of determining whether an employee has terminated employment with the Company and all Affiliates,
“Affiliates” means any corporation (or partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, or
other enterprise) of which the Company owns or controls, directly or indirectly, at least ten
percent of the outstanding shares of stock normally entitled to vote for the election of directors
(or comparable equity participation and voting power). The minimum percentage of ownership or
control in the previous sentence shall be raised from ten percent to twenty percent for purposes of
determining timing of payment of an Award, or amount payable with respect to an Award, that is
“deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A, if payment of such Award or amount would
be accelerated or otherwise triggered by the employee’s termination of employment.

     “Award” means, individually or collectively, a grant under this Plan to a Participant of
Nonqualified Stock Options, Incentive Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock,
Restricted Units, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Shares, Performance Units or other types of
equity-based or cash-based incentives hereafter approved by the Committee.

     “Award Agreement” means an agreement entered into by the Company and a Participant setting
forth the terms and provisions applicable to an Award or Awards granted to the Participant.

     “Beneficial Owner” or “Beneficial Ownership” has the meaning ascribed to that term in Rule
13d-3 of the General Rules and Regulations under the Exchange Act.

     “Board” or “Board of Directors” means the Board of Directors of the Company.

     “Cause” has the meaning set forth in any unexpired employment or severance agreement between
the Participant and the Company or an Affiliate. If there is no such agreement, “Cause” means:

	 	(a)	 	the willful and continued failure of the Participant substantially to perform
his or her duties with or for the Company or an Affiliate;
	 
	 	(b)	 	the Participant’s engaging in conduct that is significantly injurious to the
Company or an Affiliate, monetarily or otherwise;

-2-

 

	 	(c)	 	the Participant’s commission of a crime that is significantly injurious to the
Company or an Affiliate, monetarily, reputationally or otherwise;
	 
	 	(d)	 	the Participant’s abuse of illegal drugs or other controlled substances; or
	 
	 	(e)	 	the Participant’s habitual intoxication.

Unless otherwise defined in the Participant’s employment or severance agreement, an act or omission
is “willful” for the purpose of determining whether a termination of employment was made for
“cause” if it was knowingly done, or knowingly omitted to be done, by the Participant not in good
faith and without reasonable belief that the act or omission was in the best interest of the
Company or an Affiliate. For purposes of this Plan, if a Participant is convicted of a crime or
pleads nolo contendere to a criminal charge, he or she will conclusively be deemed to have
committed the crime. The Committee has the discretion, in other circumstances, to determine in
good faith, from all the facts and circumstances reasonably available to it, whether a Participant
who is under investigation for, or has been charged with, a crime will be deemed to have committed
it for purposes of this Plan.

     “Change in Control” of the Company will be deemed to have occurred (as of a particular day, as
specified by the Board) as of the first day any one or more of the following paragraphs is
satisfied.

	 	(a)	 	Any Person (other than the Company or a trustee or other fiduciary holding
securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company, or a corporation owned
directly or indirectly by the shareholders of the Company in substantially the same
proportions as their ownership of stock of the Company) becomes the Beneficial Owner,
directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company, representing more than twenty
percent of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities.
	 
	 	(b)	 	During any period of twenty-six consecutive months beginning on or after the
Effective Date, individuals who at the beginning of the period constituted the Board
cease for any reason (other than death, Disability or voluntary Retirement) to
constitute a majority of the Board. For this purpose, any new Director whose election
by the Board, or nomination for election by the Company’s shareholders, was approved by
a vote of at least two-thirds of the Directors then still in office, and who either
were Directors at the beginning of the period or whose election or nomination for
election was so approved, will be deemed to have been a Director at the beginning of
any twenty-six month period under consideration.

-3-

 

	 	(c)	 	Consummation of: (i) an agreement for the sale or disposition of all or
substantially all the Company’s assets; or (ii) a merger, consolidation or
reorganization of the Company with or involving any other corporation, other than a
merger, consolidation or reorganization that results in the voting securities of the
Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by
remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving
entity) at least fifty percent of the combined voting power of the voting securities of
the Company (or such surviving entity) outstanding immediately after such merger,
consolidation, or reorganization.
	 
	 	(d)	 	The shareholders of the Company approve a plan of complete liquidation or
dissolution of the Company.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Award, or amount payable with respect to an Award, is
“deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A, and if a payment of such Award or amount
would be accelerated or otherwise triggered upon a “Change in Control,” then the foregoing
definition is modified, to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of an excise tax under Code
Section 409A, to mean a “change in control event” as such term is defined for purposes of Code
Section 409A. For purposes of clarity, if an Award would, for example, vest and be paid on a
“Change in Control” as defined herein but payment of such Award would violate the provisions of
Code Section 409A, then the Award shall vest but will be paid only in compliance with its terms and
Code Section 409A (i.e., upon a permissible payment event).

     “Code” means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time.

     “Committee” means, as specified in Article 3, the Compensation Committee of the Board or such
other committee as may be appointed by the Board to administer the Plan.

     “Company” means Lear Corporation, a Delaware corporation, and any successor thereto as
provided in Article 17.

     “Director” means any individual who is a member of the Board of Directors.

     “Disability” means (a) long-term disability as defined under the long-term disability plan of
the Company or an Affiliate that covers that individual, or (b) if the individual is not covered by
such a long-term disability plan, disability as defined for purposes of eligibility for a
disability award under the Social Security Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of
determining the period of time after termination of employment during which a Participant may
exercise an ISO, “Disability” will have the meaning set forth in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code,

-4-

 

which is, generally, that the Participant is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity
by reason of a medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to
result in death or that has lasted or can be expected to last for a continuous period of at least
twelve months.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Award, or amount payable with respect to an Award, is
“deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A, and if a payment of such Award or amount
would be accelerated or otherwise triggered upon a “Disability,” then the foregoing definition is
modified, to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of an excise tax under Code Section 409A,
to refer to a Participant who is “disabled,” as such term is defined for purposes of Code Section
409A. For purposes of clarity, if an Award would, for example, vest and be paid on a “Disability”
as defined herein but payment of such Award would violate the provisions of Code Section 409A, then
the Award shall vest but will be paid only in compliance with its terms and Code Section 409A
(i.e., upon a permissible payment event).

     “Effective Date” means November 9, 2009.

     “Eligible Employee” or “Employee” means any employee of the Company or any of its Affiliates.
Directors who are not employed by the Company or its Affiliates will also be considered Eligible
Employees and Employees under this Plan.

     “Exchange Act” means the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended from time to time, or any
successor act thereto.

     “Exercise Price” means the price at which a Share may be purchased by a Participant pursuant
to an Option.

     “Fair Market Value” means:

	 	(a)	 	the closing trading price of the Shares on the New York Stock Exchange or, if
the Shares are not traded on the New York Stock Exchange, on the NASDAQ Stock Market or
any other exchange on which they are traded; or
	 
	 	(b)	 	if the Shares are not traded on any exchange, the mean between the closing bid
and asked prices of the Shares in the over-the-counter market; or
	 
	 	(c)	 	if those bid and asked prices are not available, then the fair market value as
reported by any nationally recognized quotation service selected by the Committee or as
determined in good faith by the Committee.

-5-

 

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of Awards intended to be exempt from Code Section
409A, the Fair Market Value shall be no less than the “fair market value,” as such term is defined
for purposes of Code Section 409A.

     “Freestanding SAR” means an SAR that is granted independently of any Options, as described in
Article 7.

     “Incentive Stock Option” or “ISO” means an option to purchase Shares granted under Article 6
that is designated as an Incentive Stock Option and that is intended to meet the requirements of
Code Section 422.

     “Nonqualified Stock Option” or “NQSO” means an option to purchase Shares granted under Article
6 that is not intended to meet the requirements of Code Section 422.

     “Option” means an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonqualified Stock Option, as described in
Article 6.

     “Participant” means an Eligible Employee who has been selected by the Committee to participate
in the Plan pursuant to Section 5.2 and who has outstanding an Award granted under the Plan. The
term “Participant” will also include Directors who are not employees of the Company or an Affiliate
for purposes of Awards under the Plan.

     “Performance-Based Exception” means the performance-based exception from the tax deductibility
limitations of Code Section 162(m) and any regulations promulgated thereunder.

     “Performance Period” means the time period during which performance objectives must be met in
order for a Participant to earn Performance Units or Performance Shares granted under Article 9.

     “Performance Share” means an award with an initial value equal to the Fair Market Value on the
date of grant which is based on the Participant’s attainment of performance objectives, as
described in Article 9.

     “Performance Unit” means an award with an initial value established by the Committee at the
time of grant which is based on the Participant’s attainment of performance objectives, as
described in Article 9.

     “Person” has the meaning ascribed to that term in Section 3(a)(9) of the Exchange Act and used
in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) thereof, including a “group” as defined in Section 13(d) thereof.

-6-

 

     “Plan” means the Lear Corporation 2009 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan, as set forth in this
document.

     “Restriction Period” means the period during which the transfer of Shares of Restricted Stock

the occurrence of other events as determined by the Committee, at its discretion) or the Restricted

     “Retirement” means termination of employment on or after (a) reaching the age established by
the Company as the normal retirement age in any unexpired employment or severance agreement between
the Participant and the Company or an Affiliate, or, in the absence of such an agreement, the

the Company or an Affiliate.

associated preferred share purchase rights, if applicable.

related Option, designated as an SAR pursuant to the terms of Article 7.

     “Tandem SAR” means an SAR that is granted in connection with a related Option pursuant to

related Option (and when a Share is purchased under the Option, the Tandem SAR will similarly be
canceled).

-7-

 

Article 3. Administration

     3.1 The Committee. The Plan will be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board,
or by any other Committee appointed by the Board, which Committee (unless otherwise determined by
the Board) will satisfy the “nonemployee director” requirements of Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange
Act and the regulations of Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act and the “outside director” provisions
of Code Section 162(m), or any successor regulations or provisions, so long as the Company is
subject to the registration requirements of the Exchange Act. The members of the Committee will be
appointed from time to time by, and serve at the discretion of, the Board of Directors. The
Committee will act by a majority of its members at the time in office and eligible to vote on any
particular matter, and Committee action may be taken either by a vote at a meeting or in writing
without a meeting.

     3.2 Authority of the Committee. Except as limited by law and subject to the provisions of
this Plan, the Committee will have full power to: select Eligible Employees to participate in the
Plan; determine the sizes and types of Awards; determine the terms and conditions of Awards in a
manner consistent with the Plan; construe and interpret the Plan and any agreement or instrument
entered into under the Plan; establish, amend or waive rules and regulations for the Plan’s
administration; and (subject to the provisions of Article 15) amend the terms and conditions of any
outstanding Award to the extent they are within the discretion of the Committee as provided in the
Plan. Further, the Committee will make all other determinations that may be necessary or advisable
to administer the Plan. As permitted by law and consistent with Section 3.1, the Committee may
delegate some or all of its authority under the Plan.

     3.3 Decisions Binding. All determinations and decisions made by the Committee pursuant to the
provisions of the Plan will be final, conclusive and binding on all persons, including, without
limitation, the Company, its Board of Directors, its shareholders, all Affiliates, employees,
Participants and their estates and beneficiaries.

Article 4. Shares Subject to the Plan and Maximum Awards

     4.1 Number of Shares Available for Grants. Subject to adjustment as provided in Sections 4.2
and 4.3, the number of Shares that may be issued or transferred to Participants under the Plan is
5,907,874. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.3, the maximum number of Shares and Share
equivalent units that may be granted during any calendar year to any one Participant under Options,
Freestanding SARs, Restricted Stock, Restricted Units, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Shares
or any other Award is 500,000, which limit will apply regardless of whether the compensation is
paid in Shares or in cash. The maximum number of

-8-

 

Shares that may be issued by Options intended to be ISOs is 2,500,000. The maximum aggregate
dollar amount that may be paid to any one Participant during any calendar year under Performance
Units or any cash incentive Award granted under Section 9.9 is $7,500,000.

     The Shares with respect to which Awards may be made will include authorized but unissued
Shares, and Shares that are currently held or subsequently acquired by the Company as treasury
Shares, including Shares purchased in the open market or in private transactions.

     4.2 Lapsed Awards. If any Award granted under this Plan is canceled, terminates, expires or
lapses for any reason, any Shares subject to the Award will again be available for the grant of an
Award under the Plan. In addition, if a Share subject to an Award is not delivered because the
award is settled in cash or because the Share is used to satisfy a tax withholding obligation or
used to pay the Exercise Price of an Option, then that Share will thereafter be deemed to be
available for grant. The number of Shares subject to a SAR in excess of the number of Shares that
are delivered to the Participant upon exercise of the SAR will not be treated as having been issued
under the Plan and will be available for grant under the Plan.

     4.3 Adjustments in Authorized Shares.

	 	(a)	 	If the Shares, as currently constituted, are changed into or exchanged for a
different number or kind of shares of stock or other securities of the Company or of
another corporation (whether because of merger, consolidation, recapitalization,
reclassification, split, reverse split, combination of shares, or other similar change
in the corporate structure of the Company affecting the Shares) or if the number of
Shares is increased through the payment of a stock dividend, then the Committee will
substitute for or add to each Share previously appropriated, later subject to, or which
may become subject to, an Award, the number and kind of shares of stock or other
securities into which each outstanding Share was changed for which each such Share was
exchanged, or to which each such Share is entitled, as the case may be. Outstanding
Awards will also be appropriately adjusted as to price and other terms, to the extent
necessary to reflect the events described above.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Fractional Shares resulting from any adjustment in Awards pursuant to this
section may be settled in cash or otherwise as the Committee determines. The Company
will give notice of any adjustment to each Participant who holds an Award that has been
adjusted and the adjustment (whether or not that notice is given) will be effective and
binding for all Plan purposes.

-9-

 

Article 5. Eligibility and Participation

     5.1 Eligibility. All Eligible Employees, including Eligible Employees who are members of the
Board, are eligible to participate in this Plan.

     5.2 Actual Participation. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee will, from
time to time, select those Eligible Employees to whom Awards will be granted, and will determine
the nature and amount of each Award.

Article 6. Stock Options

     6.1 Grant of Options. Subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan, Options may be granted
to Eligible Employees in the number, and upon the terms, and at any time and from time to time, as
determined by the Committee.

     6.2 Award Agreement. Each Option grant will be evidenced by an Award Agreement that specifies
the Exercise Price, the duration of the Option, the number of Shares to which the Option pertains,
the manner, time and rate of exercise or vesting of the Option, and such other provisions as the
Committee determines. The Award Agreement will also specify whether the Option is intended to be
an ISO or an NQSO.

     6.3 Exercise Price. The Exercise Price for each share subject to an Option will be at least
one hundred percent of the Fair Market Value on the date the Option is granted.

     6.4 Duration of Options. Each Option will expire at the time determined by the Committee at
the time of grant, but no later than the tenth anniversary of the date of its grant.

     6.5 No Dividend Equivalents. Subject to Section 4.3, the Committee may not grant payments in
connection with Options that are equivalent to dividends declared and paid on the Shares underlying
the Options.

     6.6 Exercise of Options. Options will be exercisable at such times and be subject to such
restrictions and conditions as the Committee in each instance approves, which need not be the same
for each Award or for each Participant.

     6.7 Payment. The holder of an Option may exercise the Option only by delivering a written
notice of exercise to the Company setting forth the number of Shares as to which the Option is to
be exercised, together with full payment at the Exercise Price for the Shares and any withholding
tax relating to the exercise of the Option.

-10-

 

     The Exercise Price and any related withholding taxes will be payable to the Company in full
either: (a) in cash, or its equivalent, in United States dollars; (b) by tendering Shares owned by
the Participant and duly endorsed for transfer to the Company, Shares issuable to the Participant
upon exercise of the Option, or any combination of cash, certified or cashier’s check and Shares
described in this clause (b); or (c) by any other means the Committee determines to be consistent
with the Plan’s purposes and applicable law. Cashless exercise must meet the requirements of the
Federal Reserve Board’s Regulation T and any applicable securities law restrictions. For this
purpose, “cashless” exercise will mean that the Participant notifies the Company it will exercise,
and the Company is instructed to deliver the Share issuable on exercise to a broker, who sells the
Shares and holds back the exercise price (and, often, the federal and state withholdings). No more
than the minimum required withholding may be satisfied by the tender of Shares.

     6.8 Restrictions on Share Transferability. The Committee may impose such restrictions on any
Shares acquired through exercise of an Option as it deems necessary or advisable, including,
without limitation, restrictions under applicable federal securities laws, under the requirements
of any stock exchange or market upon which the Shares are then listed or traded, and under any blue
sky or state securities laws applicable to the Shares.

     6.9 Termination of Employment. Each Option Award Agreement will set forth the extent to which
the Participant has the right to exercise the Option after his or her termination of employment
with the Company and all Affiliates. These terms will be determined by the Committee in its sole
discretion, need not be uniform among all Options, and may reflect, among other things,
distinctions based on the reasons for termination of employment.

     6.10 Nontransferability of Options. Except as otherwise provided in a Participant’s Award
Agreement, no Option granted under the Plan may be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or
otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution,
or pursuant to a domestic relations order (as defined in Code Section 414(p)). Further, except
as otherwise provided in a Participant’s Award Agreement, all Options will be exercisable during
the Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant or his or her guardian or legal representative.
The Committee may, in its discretion, require a Participant’s guardian or legal representative to
supply it with the evidence the Committee deems necessary to establish the authority of the
guardian or legal representative to act on behalf of the Participant.

-11-

 

Article 7. Stock Appreciation Rights

     7.1 Grant of SARs. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, SARs may be granted to
Participants at any time and from time to time, as determined by the Committee. The Committee may
grant Freestanding SARs, Tandem SARs or any combination of the two.

     Within the limits of Article 4, the Committee will have sole discretion to determine the
number of SARs granted to each Participant and, consistent with the provisions of the Plan, to
determine the terms and conditions pertaining to SARs.

     The grant price of a SAR will equal the Fair Market Value on the date of grant of the SAR.

     7.2 Exercise of Tandem SARs. Tandem SARs may be exercised for all or part of the Shares
subject to the related Option, upon the surrender of the right to exercise the equivalent portion
of the related Option. A Tandem SAR may be exercised only with respect to the Shares for which its
related Option is then exercisable.

     7.3 Exercise of Freestanding SARs. Freestanding SARs may be exercised upon whatever terms and
conditions the Committee, in its sole discretion, imposes.

     7.4 Award Agreement. Each SAR grant will be evidenced by an Award Agreement that specifies
the grant price, the term of the SAR and such other provisions as the Committee determines.

     7.5 Term of SARs. The term of an SAR will be determined by the Committee, in its sole
discretion, but may not exceed ten years.

     7.6 Payment of SAR Amount. Upon exercise of an SAR, a Participant will be entitled to receive
payment from the Company in an amount determined by multiplying:

	 	(a)	 	the excess (or some portion of the excess as determined at the
time of the grant by the Committee) if any, of the Fair Market Value on the
date of exercise of the SAR over the grant price specified in the Award
Agreement; by
	 
	 	(b)	 	the number of Shares as to which the SAR is exercised.

The payment upon SAR exercise may be made in cash, in Shares of equivalent Fair Market Value or in
some combination of the two, as specified in the Award Agreement.

-12-

 

     7.7 Termination of Employment. Each SAR Award Agreement will set forth the extent to which
the Participant has the right to exercise the SAR after his or her termination of employment with
the Company and all Affiliates. These terms will be determined by the Committee in its sole
discretion, need not be uniform among all SARs issued under the Plan, and may reflect, among other
things, distinctions based on the reasons for termination of employment.

     7.8 Nontransferability of SARs. Except as otherwise provided in a Participant’s Award
Agreement, no SAR may be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or
hypothecated, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, or pursuant to a
domestic relations order (as defined in Code Section 414(p)). Further, except as otherwise
provided in a Participant’s Award Agreement, all SARs will be exercisable during the Participant’s
lifetime only by the Participant or the Participant’s guardian or legal representative. The
Committee may, in its discretion, require a Participant’s guardian or legal representative to
supply it with evidence the Committee deems necessary to establish the authority of the guardian or
legal representative to act on behalf of the Participant.

     7.9 No Dividend Equivalents. Subject to Section 4.3, the Committee may not grant payments in
connection with SARs that are equivalent to dividends declared and paid on the Shares underlying
the SARs.

Article 8. Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units and Restricted Units

     8.1 Grant of Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units or Restricted Units. Subject to the
terms and provisions of the Plan, the Committee may, at any time and from time to time, grant
Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units or Restricted Units to Participants in such amounts as it
determines.

     8.2 Award Agreement. Each grant of Restricted Stock, Restricted Units or Restricted Stock
Units will be evidenced by an Award Agreement that specifies the Restriction Periods, the number of
Shares or Share equivalent units granted, and such other provisions as the Committee determines.

     8.3 Nontransferability. Restricted Stock, Restricted Units and Restricted Stock Units granted
herein may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated,
other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, or pursuant to a domestic relations
order (as defined in Code Section 414(p)), until the end of the applicable

-13-

 

Restriction Period as
specified in the Award Agreement, or upon earlier satisfaction of any other
conditions specified by the Committee in its sole discretion and set forth in the Award
Agreement. All rights with respect to Restricted Stock, Restricted Units and Restricted Stock
Units will be available during the Participant’s lifetime only to the Participant or the
Participant’s guardian or legal representative. The Committee may, in its discretion, require a
Participant’s guardian or legal representative to supply it with evidence the Committee deems
necessary to establish the authority of the guardian or legal representative to act on behalf of
the Participant.

     8.4 Other Restrictions. Subject to Article 11, the Committee may impose such other conditions
or restrictions on any Restricted Stock, Restricted Units or Restricted Stock Units as it deems
advisable including, without limitation, restrictions based upon the achievement of specific
performance objectives (Company-wide, business unit, individual, or any combination of them),
time-based restrictions on vesting following the attainment of the performance objectives, and
restrictions under applicable federal or state securities laws. The Committee may provide that
restrictions established under this Section 8.4 as to any given Award will lapse all at once or in
installments.

     The Company will retain the certificates representing Shares of Restricted Stock in its
possession until all conditions and restrictions applicable to the Shares have been satisfied.

     8.5 Payment of Awards. Except as otherwise provided in this Article 8, Shares covered by each
Restricted Stock grant will become freely transferable by the Participant after the last day of the
applicable Restriction Period, and Share equivalent units covered by a Restricted Unit or
Restricted Stock Unit will be paid out in cash or Shares to the Participant following the last day
of the applicable Restriction Period, or on a later date provided in the Award Agreement.

     8.6 Voting Rights. During the Restriction Period, Participants holding Shares of Restricted
Stock may exercise full voting rights with respect to those Shares.

     8.7 Dividends and Other Distributions. During the Restriction Period, Participants awarded
Shares of Restricted Stock, Restricted Units or Restricted Stock Units hereunder will be credited
with regular cash dividends or dividend equivalents paid on those Shares or with respect to those
Share equivalent units. Dividends may be paid currently, accrued as contingent cash obligations,
or converted into additional Shares of Restricted Stock, upon such terms as the Committee
establishes.

     The Committee may apply any restrictions it deems advisable to the crediting and payment of
dividends and other distributions. Without limiting the generality of the preceding

-14-

 

sentence, if
the grant or vesting of Restricted Stock is designed to qualify for the Performance-
Based Exception, the Committee may apply any restrictions it deems appropriate to the payment
of dividends declared with respect to the Restricted Stock, so that the dividends and the
Restricted Stock continue to be eligible for the Performance-Based Exception.

     8.8 Termination of Employment. Each Award Agreement will set forth the extent to which the
Participant has the right to retain unvested Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units or Restricted
Units after his or her termination of employment with the Company or an Affiliate. These terms
will be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, need not be uniform among all Awards of
Restricted Stock, and may reflect, among other things, distinctions based on the reasons for
termination of employment.

Article 9. Performance Units, Performance Shares and Other Awards

     9.1 Grant of Performance Units or Performance Shares. Subject to the terms of the Plan,
Performance Units or Performance Shares may be granted to Participants in such amounts and upon
such terms, and at any time and from time to time, as the Committee determines.

     9.2 Value of Performance Units and Performance Shares. Each Performance Unit will have an
initial value established by the Committee at the time of grant. Each Performance Share will have
an initial value equal to the Fair Market Value on the date of grant. The Committee will set
performance objectives in its discretion which, depending on the extent to which they are met, will
determine the number or value (or both) of Performance Units or Performance Shares that will be
paid out to the Participant. For purposes of this Article 9, the time period during which the
performance objectives must be met will be called a “Performance Period” and will be set by the
Committee in its discretion.

     9.3 Earning of Performance Units and Performance Shares. Subject to the terms of this Plan,
after the applicable Performance Period has ended, the holder of Performance Units or Performance
Shares will be entitled to receive payout on the number and value of Performance Units or
Performance Shares earned by the Participant over the Performance Period, to be determined as a
function of the extent to which the corresponding performance objectives have been achieved.

     9.4 Award Agreement. Each grant of Performance Units or Performance Shares will be evidenced
by an Award Agreement specifying the material terms and conditions of the Award

-15-

 

(including the form
of payment of earned Performance Units or Performance Shares), and such other provisions as the
Committee determines.

     9.5 Form and Timing of Payment of Performance Units and Performance Shares. Except as
provided in Article 12, payment of earned Performance Units and Performance Shares will be made as
soon as practicable after the close of the applicable Performance Period, in a manner determined by
the Committee in its sole discretion. The Committee will pay earned Performance Units and
Performance Shares in the form of cash, in Shares, or in a combination of cash and Shares, as
specified in the Award Agreement. Performance Shares may be paid subject to any restrictions
deemed appropriate by the Committee.

     9.6 Termination of Employment Due to Death or Disability. Unless determined otherwise by the
Committee and set forth in the Participant’s Award Agreement, if a Participant’s employment is
terminated by reason of death or Disability during a Performance Period, the Participant will
receive a prorated payout of the Performance Units or Performance Shares, as specified by the
Committee in its discretion in the Award Agreement. Payment of earned Performance Units and
Performance Shares will be made at a time specified by the Committee in its sole discretion and set
forth in the Participant’s Award Agreement.

     9.7 Termination of Employment for Other Reasons. If a Participant’s employment terminates
during a Performance Period for any reason other than death or Disability, the Participant will
forfeit all Performance Units and Performance Shares to the Company, unless the Participant’s Award
Agreement provides otherwise.

     9.8 Nontransferability. Except as otherwise provided in a Participant’s Award Agreement,
Performance Units and Performance Shares may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or
otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by the laws of descent and
distribution, or pursuant to a domestic relations order (as defined in Code Section 414(p)).
Further, except as otherwise provided in a Participant’s Award Agreement, a Participant’s rights
under the Plan will be exercisable during the Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant or
Participant’s guardian or legal representative. The Committee may, in its discretion, require a
Participant’s guardian or legal representative to supply it with evidence the Committee deems
necessary to establish the authority of the guardian or legal representative to act on behalf of
the Participant.

     9.9 Other Awards. In addition to the Awards described in Articles 6 through 8 and Sections
9.1 through 9.8 above, and subject to the terms of the Plan, the Committee may grant

-16-

 

other
incentives payable in cash or Shares under the Plan as it determines to be in the best interests of
the Company and subject to such other terms and conditions as it deems appropriate.

Article 10. Performance Measures

     Unless and until the Committee proposes and the Company’s shareholders approve a change in the
general performance measures set forth in this Article 10, the performance measure(s) to be used
for purposes of Awards designed to qualify for the Performance-Based Exception will be chosen from
among the following alternatives:

	 	(a)	 	net earnings;
	 
	 	(b)	 	operating earnings or income;
	 
	 	(c)	 	earnings growth;
	 
	 	(d)	 	net sales growth;
	 
	 	(e)	 	net income (absolute or competitive growth rates comparative);
	 
	 	(f)	 	net income applicable to common stock;
	 
	 	(g)	 	cash flow, including operating cash flow, free cash flow, discounted cash flow
return on investment, and cash flow in excess of cost of capital;
	 
	 	(h)	 	earnings per share of common stock;
	 
	 	(i)	 	return on shareholders equity (absolute or peer-group comparative);
	 
	 	(j)	 	stock price (absolute or peer-group comparative);
	 
	 	(k)	 	absolute and/or relative return on common shareholders equity;
	 
	 	(l)	 	absolute and/or relative return on capital;
	 
	 	(m)	 	absolute and/or relative return on assets;
	 
	 	(n)	 	economic value added (income in excess of cost of capital);
	 
	 	(o)	 	customer satisfaction;

-17-

 

	 	(p)	 	quality metrics;
	 
	 	(q)	 	expense reduction; and
	 
	 	(r)	 	ratio of operating expenses to operating revenues.

     The Committee may specify any reasonable definition of the performance measures it uses. Such
definitions may provide for reasonable adjustments and may include or exclude items, including but
not limited to: investment gains and losses; extraordinary, unusual or non-recurring items; gains
or losses on the sale of assets; effects of changes in accounting principles or the application
thereof; asset impairment charges; effects of currency fluctuations; acquisitions, divestitures, or
financing activities; recapitalizations, including stock splits and dividends; expenses for
restructuring or productivity initiatives; discontinued operations; and other non-operating items.

     The Committee will have the discretion to adjust targets set for preestablished performance
objectives; however, Awards designed to qualify for the Performance-Based Exception may not be
adjusted upward, except to the extent permitted under Code Section 162(m), to reflect accounting
changes or other events.

     If Code Section 162(m) or other applicable tax or securities laws change to allow the
Committee discretion to change the types of performance measures without obtaining shareholder
approval, the Committee will have sole discretion to make such changes without obtaining
shareholder approval. In addition, if the Committee determines it is advisable to grant Awards
that will not qualify for the Performance-Based Exception, the Committee may grant Awards that do
not so qualify.

Article 11. Beneficiary Designation

     Each Participant may, from time to time, name any beneficiary or beneficiaries (who may be
named contingently or successively) to whom any benefit under the Plan is to be paid in case the
Participant should die before receiving any or all of his or her Plan benefits. Each beneficiary
designation will revoke all prior designations by the same Participant, must be in a form
prescribed by the Committee, and must be made during the Participant’s lifetime. If the
Participant’s designated beneficiary predeceases the Participant or no beneficiary has been
designated, benefits remaining unpaid at the Participant’s death will be paid to the Participant’s
estate or other entity described in the Participant’s Award Agreement.

-18-

 

Article 12. Deferrals

     The Committee may, consistent with the requirements of Code Section 409A, permit a Participant
to defer receipt of cash or Shares that would otherwise be due to him or her by virtue of an Option
or SAR exercise, the lapse or waiver of restrictions on Restricted Stock, Restricted
Stock Units, Restricted Units or other Awards, or the satisfaction of any requirements or
objectives with respect to Performance Units, Performance Shares or other Awards. If any such
deferral election is permitted, the Committee will, in its sole discretion, establish rules and
procedures for such deferrals consistent with the requirements of Code Section 409A.

Article 13. Rights of Employees

     13.1 Employment. Nothing in the Plan will interfere with or limit in any way the right of the
Company or any affiliate of the Company (as defined in federal securities laws) to terminate any
Participant’s employment at any time, or confer upon any Participant any right to continue in the
employ of the Company or any Affiliate.

     13.2 Participation. No Eligible Employee will have the right to receive an Award under this
Plan, or, having received any Award, to receive a future Award.

Article 14. Change in Control

     14.1 Treatment of Outstanding Awards. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, unless
otherwise specifically prohibited under applicable laws, or by the rules and regulations of any
governing governmental agencies or national securities exchanges:

	 	(a)	 	any and all outstanding Options and SARs will become immediately exercisable
(and will deemed to be exercisable immediately prior to the Change in Control), and
will remain exercisable throughout their entire term (the “Vested Options and SARs”);
provided, however, that, with respect to Vested Options and SARs that are not exercised
in connection with the Change in Control, such Vested Options and SARs will be subject
to the provisions of Section 14.1(e) below, as applicable;
	 
	 	(b)	 	any Restriction Periods or other restrictions imposed on Restricted Stock,
Restricted Stock Units and Restricted Units will lapse, except that the degree of
vesting associated with those awards that is conditioned on the achievement of

-19-

 

	 	 	 	performance conditions will be determined as set forth in Section 14.1(c) or Section
14.1(d), as applicable;

	 	(c)	 	except as otherwise provided in the Award Agreement, the vesting of all
Performance Units and Performance Shares will be accelerated as of the effective date
of the Change in Control, and Participants will be paid in cash, within thirty
days after the effective date of the Change in Control, a pro rata amount based on
an assumed achievement of all relevant performance objectives at target levels, and
upon the length of time within the Performance Period that elapsed prior to the
effective date of the Change in Control;
	 
	 	(d)	 	notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Committee determines that actual
performance to the effective date of the Change in Control exceeds target levels, the
prorated payouts made pursuant to Sections 14.1(b) and (c) will be made at levels
commensurate with the actual performance (determined by extrapolating the actual
performance to the end of the Performance Period) based on the length of time within
the Performance Period that elapsed prior to the Change in Control; and
	 
	 	(e)	 	(i) if the Company is a party to an agreement that is reasonably likely to result in a
Change in Control, such agreement may provide for: (A) the continuation of the Vested
Options and SARs by the Company, if the Company is the surviving corporation; (B) the
assumption of the Vested Options and SARs by the surviving corporation or its parent or
subsidiary; (C) the substitution by the surviving corporation or its parent or
subsidiary of equivalent awards for the Vested Options and SARs; or (D) settlement of
the Vested Options and SARs for the Change in Control Price (less, to the extent
applicable, the per share exercise or grant price), or, if the per share exercise or
grant price equals or exceeds the Change in Control Price, such Vested Options and SARs
shall terminate and be canceled.
	 
	 	 	 	(ii) to the extent that Restricted Stock, Restricted Units and Restricted Stock
Units settle in Shares in accordance with their terms upon a Change in Control, such
Shares shall be entitled to receive as a result of the Change in Control transaction
the same consideration as the Shares held by shareholders of the Company as a result
of the Change in Control transaction.
	 
	 	 	 	For purposes of this Section 14.1(e), Change in Control Price shall mean the Fair
Market Value of a Share upon a Change in Control. To the extent that the

-20-

 

	 	 	 	consideration paid in any such Change in Control transaction consists all or in part
of securities or other non-cash consideration, the value of such securities or other
non-cash consideration shall be determined in good faith by the Committee.

     14.2 Termination, Amendment and Modifications of Change in Control Provisions.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan or any provision in an Award Agreement, this
Article 14 may not be terminated, amended or modified on or after the effective
date of a Change in Control in a way that would adversely affect any Award in any material way
theretofore granted to a Participant, unless the Participant gives his or her prior written consent
to the termination, amendment or modification.

Article 15. Amendment, Modification and Termination

     15.1 Amendment, Modification and Termination. Subject to Section 14.2, the Committee or Board
may at any time and from time to time, alter, amend, modify or terminate the Plan in whole or in
part. The Committee or Board will not, however, increase the number of Shares that may be issued
or transferred to Participants under the Plan, as described in the first sentence of Section 4.1
(and subject to adjustment as provided in Sections 4.2 and 4.3).

     Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Committee may modify, extend or renew
outstanding Awards under the Plan, or accept the surrender of outstanding Awards (to the extent not
already exercised) and grant new Awards in substitution of them (to the extent not already
exercised). Except as provided in Sections 4.3 and 15.2, the Committee will not, however, modify
any outstanding Option or SAR so as to specify a lower Exercise Price or grant price (and will not
cancel an Option or SAR and substitute for it an Option or SAR with a lower Exercise price or grant
price), without the approval of the Company’s shareholders. In addition, except as provided in
Sections 4.3 and 15.2, the Committee may not cancel an outstanding Option or SAR whose Exercise
Price or grant price is equal to or greater than the current Fair Market Value of a Share and
substitute for it another Award without the prior approval of the Company’s shareholders.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no alteration, modification or termination of an Award will, without
the prior written consent of the Participant, adversely alter or impair any rights or obligations
under any Award already granted under the Plan.

     15.2 Adjustment of Awards Upon the Occurrence of Certain Unusual or Nonrecurring Events. The
Committee may, using reasonable care, make adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the
criteria included in, Awards in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or
potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan (i) in recognition of unusual or
nonrecurring events (including, without limitation, the events

-21-

 

described in Section 4.3) affecting
the Company or its financial statements, (ii) in recognition of changes in applicable laws,
regulations, or accounting principles, or (iii) whenever the Committee determines that such
adjustments are necessary, equitable and/or appropriate. In the case of an Award designed to
qualify for the Performance-Based Exception, the Committee will take care not to make an adjustment
that would disqualify the Award.

     15.3 Awards Previously Granted. No termination, amendment or modification of the Plan will
adversely affect in any material way any Award already granted, without the written consent of the
Participant who holds the Award.

     15.4 Compliance with Code Section 162(m) and Code Section 409A. Awards will comply with the
requirements of Code Section 162(m), unless the Committee determines that such compliance is not
desired with respect to an Award available for grant under the Plan. In addition, if changes are
made to Code Section 162(m) to permit greater flexibility as to any Award available under the Plan,
the Committee may, subject to this Article 15, make any adjustments it deems appropriate. The Plan
and Awards, and all amounts payable with respect to Awards, are intended to comply with, or be
exempt from, Code Section 409A and the interpretative guidance thereunder and shall be construed,
interpreted and administered accordingly. If an unintentional operational failure occurs with
respect to Code Section 409A, any affected Participant or beneficiary shall fully cooperate with
the Company to correct the failure to the extent possible in accordance with any correction
procedure established by the U.S. Department of the Treasury. If a Participant is a “specified
employee” (as such term is defined for purposes of Code Section 409A) at the time of his or her
termination of employment, no amount that is subject to Code Section 409A and that becomes payable
by reason of such termination of employment shall be paid to the Participant before the earlier of
(i) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of the Participant’s termination
of employment, and (ii) the date of the Participant’s death. A termination of employment shall be
deemed to occur only if it is a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A,
and references in the Plan and any Award Agreement to “termination,” “termination of employment,”
or like terms shall mean a “separation from service.” A separation from service shall be deemed to
occur if it is anticipated that the level of services the Participant will perform after a certain
date (whether as an employee or as an independent contractor) will permanently decrease to no more
than twenty percent (20%) of the average level of services provided by the Participant in the
immediately preceding thirty-six (36) months.

-22-

 

Article 16. Withholding

     16.1 Tax Withholding. The Company will have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or
require a Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, and
local taxes, domestic or foreign, required by law or regulation to be withheld with respect to any
taxable event arising under this Plan. No Award Agreement will permit reload options to be granted
in connection with any Shares used to pay a tax withholding obligation.

     16.2 Share Withholding. With respect to withholding required upon the exercise of Options or
SARs, upon the lapse of restrictions on Restricted Stock, or upon any other taxable event arising
as a result of Awards granted hereunder, the Company may satisfy the minimum withholding
requirement for supplemental wages, in whole or in part, by withholding Shares having a Fair Market
Value (determined on the date the Participant recognizes taxable income on the Award) equal to the
minimum withholding tax required to be collected on the transaction. The Participant may elect,
subject to the approval of the Committee, to deliver the necessary funds to satisfy the withholding
obligation to the Company, in which case there will be no reduction in the Shares otherwise
distributable to the Participant.

Article 17. Indemnification

     Each person who is or has been a member of the Committee or the Board will be indemnified and
held harmless by the Company from and against any loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be
imposed upon or reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with or as a result of any claim,
action, suit or proceeding to which he or she may be a party or in which he or she may be involved
by reason of any action taken, or failure to act, under the Plan. Each such person will also be
indemnified and held harmless by the Company from and against any and all amounts paid by him or
her in a settlement approved by the Company, or paid by him or her in satisfaction of any judgment,
of or in a claim, action, suit or proceeding against him or her and described in the previous
sentence, so long as he or she gives the Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and
defend the claim, action, suit or proceeding before he or she undertakes to handle and defend it.
The foregoing right of indemnification will not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification
to which a person who is or has been a member of the Committee or the Board may be entitled under
the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any
power that the Company may have to indemnify him or her or hold him or her harmless.

-23-

 

Article 18. Successors

     All obligations of the Company under the Plan or any Award Agreement will be binding on any
successor to the Company, whether the existence of the successor results from a direct or indirect
purchase of all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company or both, or a merger,
consolidation, or otherwise.

Article 19. Legal Construction

     19.1 Number. Except where otherwise indicated by the context, any plural term used in this
Plan includes the singular and a singular term includes the plural.

     19.2 Severability. If any provision of the Plan is held illegal or invalid for any reason,
the illegality or invalidity will not affect the remaining parts of the Plan, and the Plan will be
construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provision had not been included.

     19.3 Requirements of Law. The granting of Awards and the issuance of Share or cash payouts
under the Plan will be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, and to any approvals
by governmental agencies or national securities exchanges as may be required.

     19.4 Securities Law Compliance. As to any individual who is, on the relevant date, an
officer, director or ten percent beneficial owner of any class of the Company’s equity securities
that is registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act, all as defined under Section 16 of
the Exchange Act, transactions under this Plan are intended to comply with all applicable
conditions of Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act, or any successor rule. To the extent any
provision of the Plan or action by the Committee fails to so comply, it will be deemed null and
void, to the extent permitted by law and deemed advisable by the Committee.

     19.5 Awards to Foreign Nationals and Employees Outside the United States. To the extent the
Committee deems it necessary, appropriate or desirable to comply with foreign law or practice and
to further the purposes of this Plan, the Committee may, without amending the Plan, (i) establish
rules applicable to Awards granted to Participants who are foreign nationals, are employed outside
the United States, or both, including rules that differ from those set forth in this Plan, and (ii)
grant Awards to such Participants in accordance with those rules.

     19.6 Unfunded Status of the Plan. The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan for
incentive and deferred compensation. With respect to any payments or deliveries of Shares not yet
made to a Participant by the Company, the Participant’s rights are no greater than

-24-

 

those of a
general creditor of the Company. The Committee may authorize the establishment of trusts or other
arrangements to meet the obligations created under the Plan, so long as the arrangement does not
cause the Plan to lose its legal status as an unfunded plan.

     19.7 Governing Law. To the extent not preempted by federal law, the Plan and all agreements
hereunder will be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Michigan
without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law.

Annex A  — RSU Terms and Conditions

LEAR CORPORATION

2009 LONG-TERM STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

2009 RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT TERMS AND CONDITIONS

          1. Definitions. Any term capitalized herein but not defined will have the meaning set
forth in the Plan.

          2. Grant and Vesting of Restricted Stock Units.

          (a) As of the Grant Date specified in the letter that accompanies this document, the Employee
will be credited with the number of Restricted Stock Units set forth in the letter that accompanies
this document. Each Restricted Stock Unit is a notional amount that represents one unvested share
of Common Stock, $0.01 par value, of the Company (the “Common Stock”). Each Restricted Stock Unit
constitutes the right, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this document, to
distribution of a Share if and when the Restricted Stock Unit vests. If the Employee’s employment
with the Company and all of its Affiliates terminates before the date that all of the Restricted
Stock Units vest, his or her right to receive the Shares underlying unvested Restricted Stock Units
will be only as provided in Section 4.

          (b) One-third of the Restricted Stock Units will vest on each of the first three anniversaries
of the Grant Date. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the right of an
Employee to receive Shares underlying a Restricted Stock Unit will be forfeited if the Committee
determines, in its sole discretion, that (i) the Employee has entered into a business or employment
relationship that is detrimentally competitive with the Company or substantially injurious to the
Company’s financial interests; or (ii) the Employee has been discharged from employment with the
Company or an Affiliate for Cause.

          3. Rights as a Stockholder.

          (a) Unless and until a Restricted Stock Unit has vested and the Share underlying it has been
distributed to the Employee, the Employee will not be entitled to vote in respect of that RSU or
that Share.

          (b) If the Company declares a cash dividend on its shares, then, on the payment date of the
dividend, the Employee will be credited with dividend equivalents equal to the amount of cash
dividend per share multiplied by the number of Restricted Stock Units credited to the Employee
through the record date. The dollar amount credited to an Employee under the preceding sentence
will be credited to an account (“Account”) established for the Employee for bookkeeping purposes
only on the books of the Company. The amounts credited to the Account will be credited as of the
last day of each month with interest, compounded monthly, until the amount credited to the Account
is paid to the Employee. The rate of interest

A-1

 

credited under the previous sentence will be the
prime rate of interest as reported by the Midwest
edition of the Wall Street Journal for the second business day of each quarter on an annual
basis. The balance in the Account will be subject to the same terms regarding vesting and
forfeiture as the Employee’s Restricted Stock Units awarded under the accompanying letter and this
document, and will be paid in cash in a single sum at the time that the Shares associated with the
Employee’s Restricted Stock Units are delivered (or forfeited at the time that the Employee’s
Restricted Stock Units are forfeited).

          4. Termination of Employment. Subject to the forfeiture provisions of clause 2(b)
above, an Employee’s right to receive the Shares underlying his or her Restricted Stock Units after
termination of his or her employment will be only as follows:

          (a) End of Service. If the Employee experiences an End of Service Date, the Employee
will be entitled to receive the Shares underlying any Restricted Stock Units that have then vested.
In addition, the Employee will be entitled to receive immediately the Shares underlying the number
of Restricted Stock Units, if any, that have not yet vested but would have vested under Section 2
if the Employee’s End of Service Date had been 24 months following his actual End of Service Date.
The Employee will forfeit the right to receive Shares underlying any Restricted Stock Units that
have not yet vested or would not have vested in the next 24 months as described in the preceding
sentence. The Employee’s “End of Service Date” is the date of his or her retirement after
attaining age 55 and completing ten years of service.

          (b) Other Termination of Employment. If an Employee’s employment with the Company
shall be terminated for Disability or by the Company for any reason other than Cause, upon the
Employee’s death or, for an Employee who is a party to an employment or severance agreement with
the Company, by the Employee for Good Reason (as defined in the Employee’s employment or severance
agreement), the Employee will be immediately entitled to receive the Shares underlying all of the
Restricted Stock Units that have not yet vested under Section 2 above. If an Employee’s employment
with the Company terminates for any reason other than those provided in Section 4(a) or the first
sentence of this Section 4(b), the Employee or his or her estate (in the event of his or her death
after termination) will forfeit the right to receive Shares underlying any Restricted Stock Units
that have not yet vested. For each Employee who is a party to an employment or severance agreement
with the Company, for purposes of this Section 4, the term “Disability” shall mean “Incapacity” as
defined in such Employee’s employment or severance agreement, as applicable.

          5. Timing and Form of Payment. Except as provided in this Section or in clause 2(b)
or Section 4, once a Restricted Stock Unit vests, the Employee will be entitled to receive a Share
in its place. Delivery of the Share will be made as soon as administratively feasible after its
associated Restricted Stock Unit vests. Shares will be credited to an account established for the
benefit of the Employee with the Company’s administrative agent. The Employee will have full legal
and beneficial ownership with respect to the Shares at that time.

A-2

 

          6. Assignment and Transfers. The Employee may not assign, encumber or transfer any of
his or her rights and interests under the Award described in this document, except, in the event of
his or her death, by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

          7. Withholding Tax. The Company and any Affiliate will have the right to retain
Shares or cash that are distributable to the Employee hereunder to the extent necessary to satisfy
any withholding taxes, whether federal or state, triggered by the distribution of Shares or cash
pursuant to the Award reflected in this document.

          8. Securities Law Requirements.

          (a) The Restricted Stock Units are subject to the further requirement that, if at any time the
Committee determines in its discretion that the listing or qualification of the Shares subject to
the Restricted Stock Units under any securities exchange requirements or under any applicable law,
or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body, is necessary as a condition of, or
in connection with, the issuance of Shares under it, then Shares will not be issued under the
Restricted Stock Units, unless the necessary listing, qualification, consent or approval has been
effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Committee.

          (b) No person who acquires Shares pursuant to the Award reflected in this document may,
during any period of time that person is an affiliate of the Company (within the meaning of the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933
(the “1933 Act”)) sell the Shares, unless the offer and sale is made pursuant to (i) an effective
registration statement under the 1933 Act, which is current and includes the Shares to be sold, or
(ii) an appropriate exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act, such as that set
forth in Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act. With respect to individuals subject to Section
16 of the Exchange Act, transactions under this Award are intended to comply with all applicable

permitted by law, that the provision or action will be null and void.

          9. No Limitation on Rights of the Company. Subject to Sections 4.3 and 15.2 of the

structure, or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, liquidate, sell or transfer all or any part of its
business or assets.

          10. Plan, Restricted Stock Units and Award Not a Contract of Employment. Neither the
Plan, the Restricted Stock Units nor any other right or interest that is part of the Award
reflected in this document is a contract of employment, and no terms of employment of the Employee
will be affected in any way by the Plan, the Restricted Stock Units, the Award, this document or
related instruments, except as specifically provided therein. Neither the establishment of the
Plan nor the Award will be construed as conferring any legal rights upon the

A-3

 

Employee for a
continuation of employment, nor will it interfere with the right of the Company or any Affiliate to
discharge the Employee and to treat him or her without regard to the effect that treatment might
have upon him or her as an Employee.

          11. Employee to Have No Rights as a Stockholder. Except as provided in Section 3
above, the Employee will have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares subject to the
Restricted Stock Units prior to the date on which he or she is recorded as the holder of those
Shares on the records of the Company.

          12. Notice. Any notice or other communication required or permitted hereunder must be

postage prepaid. Any such notice will be deemed given when so delivered personally or, if mailed,
three days after the date of deposit in the United States mail, in the case of the Company to 21557
Telegraph Road, Southfield, Michigan, 48033, Attention: General Counsel and, in the case of the

accordance with, and governed by, the laws of the State of Michigan, determined without regard to
its conflict of law rules.

          14. Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Restricted Stock
Unit document, if an Employee is a “specified employee” (as such term is defined for purposes of
Code Section 409A) at the time of his or her termination of employment, no amount that is subject
to Code Section 409A and that becomes payable by reason of such termination of employment shall be
paid to the Employee before the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six-month period measured from
the date of the Employee’s termination of employment, and (ii) the date of the Employee’s death.

          15. Plan Document Controls. The rights granted under this Restricted Stock Unit
document are in all respects subject to the provisions of the Plan to the same extent and with the
same effect as if they were set forth fully therein. If the terms of this document or the Award

Annex B — Stock-Settled SAR Terms and Conditions

LEAR CORPORATION

2009 LONG-TERM STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

STOCK-SETTLED STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHT TERMS AND CONDITIONS

          1. Definitions. Any term capitalized herein but not defined will have the meaning set
forth in the Plan.

          2. Term, Vesting and Exercise of the SAR.

          (a) If the Employee remains employed by the Company, the SAR will expire seven years from the
Grant Date. If the Employee terminates employment with the Company before the seventh anniversary
of the Grant Date, his or her right to exercise the SAR after termination of his or her employment
will be only as provided in Section 3.

          (b) The SAR will vest and become exercisable as to one-third of the Shares to which the SAR
relates on each of the first three anniversaries of the Grant Date. If the Employee experiences an
End of Service Date, the SAR will vest as to those Shares underlying the SAR, if any, that have not
yet vested but would have vested hereunder if the Employee’s End of Service Date had been 24 months
following his actual End of Service Date. The Employee will forfeit that portion of the SAR which
has not yet vested or would not have vested in the next 24 months as described in the preceding
sentence. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the right of an Employee to
exercise the SAR will be forfeited if the Committee determines, in its sole discretion, that (i)
the Employee has entered into a business or employment relationship which is detrimentally
competitive with the Company or substantially injurious to the Company’s financial interests; or
(ii) the Employee has been discharged from employment with the Company or an Affiliate for Cause.

          (c) The SAR may be exercised by written notice to the Company indicating the number of Shares
to which the SAR relates being exercised. When the SAR is vested and exercisable, it may be
exercised in whole at any time or in part from time to time as to any or all full Shares under the
SAR. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the SAR may not be exercised for fewer than 100 Shares at any
one time or, if fewer, all the Shares that are then subject to the SAR.

          (d) Any amount due to the Employee upon exercise of the SAR will be paid in Shares. The
number of Shares delivered to Employee upon exercise of the SAR will be based on the amount, if
any, by which the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of exercise exceeds the grant price
(“Grant Price”) of the SAR. The Employee will not receive a distribution of Shares if the Fair
Market Value on the date of exercise does not exceed the Grant Price. The Employee’s distribution
of Shares upon exercise of the SAR will be calculated by dividing

B-1

 

(x) the aggregate dollar
difference between the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of exercise
and the Grant Price for all SARs so exercised by (y) the Fair Market Value of a Share on the
date of exercise; provided, that the amount of Shares delivered to the Employee shall be subject to
any minimum withholding as specified in clause 4 hereof.

          3. Termination of Employment. Subject to the forfeiture provisions in clause 2(b)
above, an Employee’s right to exercise the SAR after termination of his or her employment will be
only as follows:

          (a) End of Service. If the Employee experiences an End of Service Date, the SAR will
immediately vest, in accordance with Section 2(b) hereof, as to those Shares underlying the SAR, if
any, that have not yet vested but would have vested hereunder if the Employee’s End of Service Date
had been 24 months following his actual End of Service Date, and the Employee will have the right
for thirteen months following his or her End of Service Date (but not later than the date on which
the SAR would otherwise expire), to exercise the SAR. If the Employee dies prior to the end of the
thirteen-month period after the End of Service Date, his or her estate will have the right to
exercise the SAR within thirteen months following the Employee’s End of Service Date (but not later
than the date on which the SAR would otherwise expire). The Employee’s “End of Service Date” is
the date of his or her retirement after attaining age 55 and completing ten years of service.

          (b) Disability, Death, Not for Cause or Good Reason Termination. If an Employee’s
employment with the Company and all Affiliates shall be terminated for Disability or by the Company
for any reason other than Cause, upon the Employee’s death or, for an Employee who is a party to an
employment or severance agreement with the Company, by the Employee for Good Reason (as defined in
the Employee’s employment or severance agreement), the SAR will immediately vest and become
exercisable as to all Shares to which the SAR relates, and the Employee (or in the case of death,
the Employee’s estate) will have the right for a period of thirteen months following the date of
the termination (but not later than the date on which the SAR would otherwise expire) to exercise
the SAR. For each Employee who is a party to an employment or severance agreement with the
Company, for purposes of this Section 3(b), the term “Disability” shall mean “Incapacity” as
defined in such Employee’s employment or severance agreement, as applicable.

          (c) Other Termination. If an Employee’s employment with the Company and all
Affiliates terminates for any reason other than those provided in clauses 3(a) or (b), the Employee
or his or her estate (in the event of his or her death after the Employee’s termination): (i) may,
within the 30-day period following the termination, exercise the SAR to the extent that it was
vested and exercisable on the date his or her employment terminated; and (ii) will forfeit the SAR
to the extent that it was not vested and exercisable on the date his or her employment terminated.

          4. Medium and Time of Payment. Any withholding tax, up to the minimum withholding
requirement for supplemental wages may be paid with Shares issuable to the

B-2

 

Employee upon exercise
under this SAR. Shares used to satisfy any minimum required withholding tax will be valued at
their Fair Market Value as of the date of exercise.

          5. Transferability of SAR and Shares Acquired Upon Exercise of SAR. This SAR is
transferable only by will or the laws of descent and distribution, or pursuant to a domestic
relations order (as defined in Code Section 414(p)). The SAR will be exercisable during the
Employee’s lifetime only by the Employee or by his or her guardian or legal representative. The
Committee may, in its discretion, require a guardian or legal representative to supply it with
evidence the Committee deems necessary to establish the authority of the guardian or legal
representative to exercise the SAR on behalf of the Employee. Except as limited by applicable
securities laws and the provisions of Section 6 hereof, Shares acquired upon exercise of this SAR
will be freely transferable.

          6. Securities Law Requirements.

          (a) If required by the Company, the notice of exercise of the SAR must be accompanied by the
Employee’s written representation: (i) that the stock being acquired is purchased for investment
and not for resale or with a view to its distribution; (ii) acknowledging that the stock has not
been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”); and (iii) agreeing
that the stock may not be sold or transferred unless either there is an effective Registration
Statement for it under the 1933 Act, or in the opinion of counsel for the Company, the sale or
transfer will not violate the 1933 Act. This SAR will not be exercisable in whole or in part, nor
will the Company be obligated to sell or issue any Shares subject to the SAR, if exercise and sale
(or issuance) may, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, violate the 1933 Act (or other
federal or state statutes having similar requirements), as it may be in effect at that time, or
cause the Company to violate the terms of Section 4.1 of the Plan.

          (b) The SAR is subject to the further requirement that, if at any time the Committee
determines in its discretion that the registration, listing or qualification of the Shares subject
to the SAR under any federal securities law, securities exchange requirements or under any other
applicable law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body, is necessary as a
condition of, or in connection with, the granting of the SAR or the issuance of Shares under it,
the SAR may not be exercised in whole or in part, unless the necessary registration, listing,
qualification, consent or approval has been effected or obtained free of any conditions not
acceptable to the Committee.

          (c) No person who acquires Shares pursuant to this SAR may, during any period of time that
person is an affiliate of the Company (within the meaning of the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission under the 1933 Act) sell the Shares, unless the offer and sale
is made pursuant to (i) an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act, which is current
and includes the Shares to be sold, or (ii) an appropriate exemption from the registration
requirements of the 1933 Act, such as that set forth in Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act.
With respect to individuals subject to Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the “Exchange Act”), transactions under this SAR are intended to

B-3

 

comply with all
applicable conditions of Rule 16b-3, or its successors under the Exchange Act. To the extent any
provision of the SAR or action by the Committee fails to so comply, the
Committee may determine, to the extent permitted by law, that the provision or action will be
null and void.

          7. No Obligation to Exercise SAR. The granting of the SAR imposes no obligation upon
the Employee (or upon a transferee of an Employee) to exercise the SAR.

          8. No Limitation on Rights of the Company. Subject to Sections 4.3 and 15.2 of the
Plan, the grant of the SAR will not in any way affect the right or power of the Company to make
adjustments, reclassification or changes in its capital or business structure, or to merge,
consolidate, dissolve, liquidate, sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.

          9. Plan and SAR Not a Contract of Employment. Neither the Plan nor this SAR is a
contract of employment, and no terms of employment of the Employee will be affected in any way by
the Plan, this SAR or related instruments except as specifically provided therein. Neither the
establishment of the Plan nor this SAR will be construed as conferring any legal rights upon the
Employee for a continuation of employment, nor will it interfere with the right of the Company or
any Affiliate to discharge the Employee and to treat him or her without regard to the effect that
treatment might have upon him or her as an Employee.

          10. Employee to Have No Rights as a Stockholder. The Employee will have no rights as
a stockholder with respect to any Shares subject to the SAR prior to the date on which he or she is
recorded as the holder of those Shares on the records of the Company.

          11. No Deferral Rights. Notwithstanding anything in Article 12 of the Plan to the
contrary, there shall be no deferral of payment, delivery or receipt of any amounts hereunder.

          12. Notice. Any notice or other communication required or permitted hereunder must be
in writing and must be delivered personally, or sent by certified, registered or express mail,
postage prepaid. Any such notice will be deemed given when so delivered personally or, if mailed,
three days after the date of deposit in the United States mail, in the case of the Company to 21557
Telegraph Road, Southfield, Michigan, 48033, Attention: General Counsel and, in the case of the
Employee, to the last known address of the Employee in the Company’s records.

          13. Governing Law. This document and the SAR will be construed and enforced in
accordance with, and governed by, the laws of the State of Michigan, determined without regard to
its conflict of law rules.

          14. Plan Document Controls. The rights granted under this SAR document are in all
respects subject to the provisions of the Plan to the same extent and with the same

B-4

 

effect as if
they were set forth fully herein. If the terms of this document or the SAR conflict with the terms
of the Plan document, the Plan document will control.

forth in the Plan.

          2. Term, Vesting and Exercise of the SAR.

          (a) If the Employee remains employed by the Company, the SAR will expire seven years from the
Grant Date. If the Employee terminates employment with the Company before the seventh anniversary
of the Grant Date, his or her right to exercise the SAR after termination of his or her employment
will be only as provided in Section 3.

          (b) The SAR will vest and become exercisable as to one-third of the Shares to which the SAR
relates on each of the first three anniversaries of the Grant Date. If the Employee experiences an
End of Service Date, the SAR will vest as to those Shares underlying the SAR, if any, that have not
yet vested but would have vested hereunder if the Employee’s End of Service Date had been 24 months
following his actual End of Service Date. The Employee will forfeit that portion of the SAR which
has not yet vested or would not have vested in the next 24 months as described in the preceding
sentence. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the right of an Employee to
exercise the SAR will be forfeited if the Committee determines, in its sole discretion, that (i)
the Employee has entered into a business or employment relationship which is detrimentally
competitive with the Company or substantially injurious to the Company’s financial interests; or
(ii) the Employee has been discharged from employment with the Company or an Affiliate for Cause.

          (c) The SAR may be exercised by written notice to the Company indicating the number of Shares
to which the SAR relates being exercised. When the SAR is vested and exercisable, it may be
exercised in whole at any time or in part from time to time as to any or all full Shares under the

one time or, if fewer, all the Shares that are then subject to the SAR.

          (d) Any amount due to the Employee upon exercise of the SAR will be paid in cash. The amount
delivered to Employee upon exercise of the SAR will be based on the amount, if any, by which the
Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of exercise exceeds the grant price (“Grant Price”) of the
SAR. The Employee will not receive a distribution of cash if the Fair Market Value on the date of
exercise does not exceed the Grant Price. The Employee’s distribution of cash upon exercise of the
SAR will be the aggregate dollar difference between the

C-1

 

Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of
exercise and the Grant Price for all SARs so
exercised; provided, that the amount delivered to Employee shall be subject to the minimum
withholding tax for supplemental wages.

          3. Termination of Employment. Subject to the forfeiture provisions in clause 2(b)
above, an Employee’s right to exercise the SAR after termination of his or her employment will be

immediately vest, in accordance with Section 2(b) hereof, as to those Shares underlying the SAR, if
any, that have not yet vested but would have vested hereunder if the Employee’s End of Service Date
had been 24 months following his actual End of Service Date, and the Employee will have the right
for thirteen months following his or her End of Service Date (but not later than the date on which
the SAR would otherwise expire), to exercise the SAR. If the Employee dies prior to the end of the
thirteen-month period after the End of Service Date, his or her estate will have the right to
exercise the SAR within thirteen months following the Employee’s End of Service Date (but not later
than the date on which the SAR would otherwise expire). The Employee’s “End of Service Date” is
the date of his or her retirement after attaining age 55 and completing ten years of service.

          (b) Disability, Death, Not for Cause or Good Reason Termination. If an Employee’s
employment with the Company and all Affiliates shall be terminated for Disability or by the Company
for any reason other than Cause, upon the Employee’s death or, for an Employee who is a party to an
employment or severance agreement with the Company, by the Employee for Good Reason (as defined in
the Employee’s employment or severance agreement), the SAR will immediately vest and become
exercisable as to all Shares to which the SAR relates, and the Employee (or in the case of death,
the Employee’s estate) will have the right for a period of thirteen months following the date of
the termination (but not later than the date on which the SAR would otherwise expire) to exercise
the SAR. For each Employee who is a party to an employment or severance agreement with the
Company, for purposes of this Section 3(b), the term “Disability” shall mean “Incapacity” as
defined in such Employee’s employment or severance agreement, as applicable.

          (c) Other Termination. If an Employee’s employment with the Company and all
Affiliates terminates for any reason other than those provided in clauses 3(a) or (b), the Employee
or his or her estate (in the event of his or her death after the Employee’s termination): (i) may,
within the 30-day period following the termination, exercise the SAR to the extent that it was
vested and exercisable on the date his or her employment terminated; and (ii) will forfeit the SAR
to the extent that it was not vested and exercisable on the date his or her employment terminated.

or her guardian or legal representative. The Committee may, in its discretion, require a guardian
or legal representative to supply it with evidence the Committee deems necessary to establish the
authority of the guardian or legal representative to exercise the SAR on behalf of the Employee.

          5. Securities Law Requirements.

          (a) This SAR will not be exercisable in whole or in part, if exercise may, in the opinion of
counsel for the Company, violate the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (or other federal or state
statutes having similar requirements), as it may be in effect at that time, or cause the Company to
violate the terms of Section 4.1 of the Plan.

          (b) The SAR is subject to the further requirement that, if at any time the Committee
determines in its discretion that the registration, listing or qualification of the Shares subject

          2. Term, Vesting and Exercise of the Stock Option.

          (a) If the Employee remains employed by the Company, the Option will expire seven years from
the Grant Date. If the Employee terminates employment with the Company before the seventh

her employment will be only as provided in Section 3.

          (b) The Option will vest and become exercisable as to one-third of the Shares to which the

if any, that have not yet vested but would have vested hereunder if the Employee’s End of Service
Date had been 24 months following his actual End of Service Date. The Employee will forfeit that
portion of the Option which has not yet vested or would not have vested in the next 24 months as
described in the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary,
the right of an Employee to exercise the Option will be forfeited if the Committee determines, in
its sole discretion, that (i) the Employee has entered into a business or employment relationship
which is detrimentally competitive with the Company or substantially injurious to the Company’s
financial interests; or (ii) the Employee has been discharged from employment with the Company or
an Affiliate for Cause.

          (c) The Option may be exercised by written notice to the Company indicating the number of
Shares being purchased. The notice must be signed by the Employee and must be accompanied by full
payment of the Exercise Price in accordance with Section 4. When the Option is vested and

will immediately vest, in accordance with Section 2(b) hereof, as to those Shares
underlying the Option, if any, that have not yet vested but would have vested hereunder if the
Employee’s End of Service Date had been 24 months following his actual End of Service Date, and the
Employee will have the right for thirteen months following his or her End of Service Date (but not
later than the date on which the Option would otherwise expire), to exercise the Option. If the
Employee dies prior to the end of the thirteen-month period after the End of Service Date, his or
her estate will have the right to exercise the Option within thirteen months following the
Employee’s End of Service Date (but not later than the date on which the Option would otherwise
expire). The Employee’s “End of Service Date” is the date of his or her retirement after attaining

          (b) Disability, Death, Not for Cause, or Good Reason Termination. If an Employee’s
employment with the Company and all Affiliates shall be terminated for Disability or by the Company
for any reason other than Cause, upon the Employee’s death or, for an Employee who is a party to an
employment or severance agreement with the Company, by the Employee for Good Reason (as defined in

defined in such Employee’s employment or severance agreement, as applicable.

          (c) Other Termination. If an Employee’s employment with the Company and all
Affiliates terminates for any reason other than those provided in clauses 3(a) or (b), the Employee
or his or her estate (in the event of his or her death after the Employee’s termination): (i) may,
within the 30-day period following the termination, exercise the Option to the extent that it was
vested and exercisable on the date his or her employment terminated; and (ii) will forfeit the
Option to the extent that it was not vested and exercisable on the date his or her employment
terminated.

          4. Medium and Time of Payment.

          (a) The Exercise Price must be paid in United States dollars. The Exercise Price may be paid
in cash, by certified check, by cashier’s check, with Shares, or using any combination of those
forms of payment, or by means of a cashless exercise or by any other means the Committee determines
to be consistent with the Plan’s purpose and applicable law, in accordance with the terms of
Section 6.7 of the Plan. A certified or cashier’s check used to pay all or part of the Exercise
Price must be made payable to the order of the Company at the time of purchase.

          (b) Any withholding tax, up to the minimum withholding requirement for supplemental wages may
be paid with Shares issuable to the Employee upon exercise under this Option. Shares used to
satisfy the Exercise Price and/or any minimum required withholding tax will be valued at their Fair
Market Value as of the date of exercise.

          5. Transferability of Option and Shares Acquired Upon Exercise of Option. This Option
is transferable only by will or the laws of descent and distribution, or pursuant to a domestic
relations order (as defined in Code Section 414(p)). The Option will be exercisable during the
Employee’s lifetime only by the Employee or by his or her guardian or legal representative. The
Committee may, in its discretion, require a guardian or legal representative to supply it with
evidence the Committee deems necessary to establish the authority of the guardian or legal
representative to exercise the Option on behalf of the Employee. Except as limited by applicable
securities laws and the provisions of Section 6 hereof, Shares acquired upon exercise of this
Option will be freely transferable.

          6. Securities Law Requirements.

          (a) If required by the Company, the notice of exercise of the Option must be accompanied by
the Employee’s written representation: (i) that the stock being acquired is purchased for
investment and not for resale or with a view to its distribution; (ii) acknowledging that the stock
has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”); and (iii)
agreeing that the stock may not be sold or transferred unless either there is an effective
Registration Statement for it under the 1933 Act, or in the opinion of counsel for the Company, the
sale or transfer will not violate the 1933 Act. This Option will not be exercisable in whole or in
part, nor will the Company be obligated to sell or issue any Shares subject to the Option, if
exercise and sale (or issuance) may, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, violate the 1933
Act (or other federal or state statutes having similar requirements), as it may be in effect at
that time, or cause the Company to violate the terms of Section 4.1 of the Plan.

          (b) The Option is subject to the further requirement that, if at any time the Committee
determines in its discretion that the registration, listing or qualification of the Shares subject
to the Option under any federal securities law, securities exchange requirements or under any other
applicable law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body, is necessary as a
condition of, or in connection with, the granting of the Option or the issuance of Shares under it,
the Option may not be exercised in whole or in part, unless the necessary registration, listing,
qualification, consent or approval has been effected or obtained free of any conditions not
acceptable to the Committee.

          (c) No person who acquires Shares pursuant to this Option may, during any period of time that
person is an affiliate of the Company (within the meaning of the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission under the 1933 Act) sell the Shares, unless the offer and sale
is made pursuant to (i) an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act, which is current
and includes the Shares to be sold, or (ii) an appropriate exemption from the registration
requirements of the 1933 Act, such as that set forth in Rule 144 promulgated

D-3

 

under the 1933 Act.
With respect to individuals subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, transactions under this
Option are intended to comply with all applicable conditions of Rule 16b-3, or its successors under
the Exchange Act. To the extent any provision of the Option or action by the Committee fails to so
comply, the Committee may determine, to the extent permitted by law, that the provision or action
will be null and void.

          7. No Obligation to Exercise Option. The granting of the Option imposes no obligation
upon the Employee (or upon a transferee of an Employee) to exercise the Option.

          8. No Limitation on Rights of the Company. Subject to Sections 4.3 and 15.2 of the
Plan, the grant of the Option will not in any way affect the right or power of the Company to make
adjustments, reclassification or changes in its capital or business structure, or to merge,
consolidate, dissolve, liquidate, sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.

          9. Plan and Option Not a Contract of Employment. Neither the Plan nor this Option is
a contract of employment, and no terms of employment of the Employee will be affected in any way by
the Plan, this Option or related instruments except as specifically provided therein. Neither the
establishment of the Plan nor this Option will be construed as conferring any legal rights upon the
Employee for a continuation of employment, nor will it interfere with the right of the Company or
any Affiliate to discharge the Employee and to treat him or her without regard to the effect that
treatment might have upon him or her as an Employee.

          10. Employee to Have No Rights as a Stockholder. The Employee will have no rights as
a stockholder with respect to any Shares subject to the Option prior to the date on which he or she
is recorded as the holder of those Shares on the records of the Company. The Employee will not
have the rights of a stockholder until he or she has paid the Exercise Price in full.

          11. No Deferral Rights. Notwithstanding anything in Article 12 of the Plan to the
contrary, there shall be no deferral of payment, delivery or receipt of any amounts hereunder.

          12. Notice. Any notice or other communication required or permitted hereunder must be
in writing and must be delivered personally, or sent by certified, registered or express mail,
postage prepaid. Any such notice will be deemed given when so delivered personally or, if mailed,
three days after the date of deposit in the United States mail, in the case of the Company to 21557
Telegraph Road, Southfield, Michigan, 48033, Attention: General Counsel and, in the case of the
Employee, to the last known address of the Employee in the Company’s records.

          13. Governing Law. This document and the Option will be construed and enforced in
accordance with, and governed by, the laws of the State of Michigan, determined without regard to
its conflict of law rules.

D-4

 

          14. Plan Document Controls. The rights granted under this Option document are in all
respects subject to the provisions of the Plan to the same extent and with the same effect as if
they were set forth fully herein. If the terms of this document or the Option conflict with the
terms of the Plan document, the Plan document will control.
