2.9 Satisfaction of Intercompany Indebtedness.

(a) On the date that is three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date (the “Calculation Date”), Goodyear shall determine, and deliver a written notice to SRI setting forth in reasonable detail: (i) all intercompany Indebtedness (including the aggregate amount thereof) payable by GDTNA to any other Goodyear Group Member outstanding as of the end of the Business Day immediately preceding the Calculation Date (the “GDTNA Payor Amount”), and (ii) all intercompany Indebtedness (including the aggregate amount thereof) payable by any other Goodyear Group Member to GDTNA (excluding the Indebtedness represented by the Huntsville Loan and the Huntsville Loan Promissory Note, without duplication) outstanding as of the end of the Business Day immediately preceding the Calculation Date (the “GDTNA Payee Amount”), in each case pursuant to the terms of the GDTNA Reciprocal Loan Agreement. From and after

-24-

the end of the Business Day immediately preceding the Calculation Date until the earlier of the Closing Date or the termination of this Agreement, Goodyear shall cause (x) GDTNA not to draw against, or make payment on, any such intercompany Indebtedness owed to any other Goodyear Group Member and (y) the other Goodyear Group Members not to draw against, or make payment on, any such intercompany Indebtedness owed to GDTNA. To the extent that the GDTNA Payor Amount exceeds the GDTNA Payee Amount, then in satisfaction of all such intercompany Indebtedness, SRI shall cause GDTNA to pay such excess amount to Goodyear at the Closing; provided, that if GDTNA lacks sufficient available unrestricted cash necessary to discharge such amount, then at the Closing SRI shall loan such amount to GDTNA for payment to Goodyear at the Closing, or otherwise cause such excess amount to be paid to Goodyear at the Closing. To the extent that the GDTNA Payee Amount exceeds the GDTNA Payor Amount, then in satisfaction of all such intercompany Indebtedness, Goodyear shall pay such excess amount to GDTNA at the Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, settlement of intercompany Indebtedness shall not include the payment of any amounts in respect of intercompany Accounts Receivable or accounts payable between GDTNA and any other Goodyear Group Member, which shall remain outstanding and be paid in the Ordinary Course. The amount due to Goodyear, or due from Goodyear, as the case may, in accordance with this Section 2.9(a) shall be the “GDTNA Indebtedness Amount.”

(b) On the Calculation Date, SRI shall determine, and deliver a written notice to Goodyear setting forth in reasonable detail: (i) all intercompany Indebtedness (including the aggregate amount thereof) payable by NGY and its Subsidiaries to any other SRI Group Member outstanding as of the end of the Business Day immediately preceding the Calculation Date (the “NGY Payor Amount”), and (ii) all intercompany Indebtedness (including the aggregate amount thereof) payable by any other SRI Group Member to NGY and its Subsidiaries outstanding as of the end of the Business Day immediately preceding the Calculation Date (the “NGY Payee Amount”), in each case pursuant to the terms of the NGY Reciprocal Loan Agreement. From and after the end of the Business Day immediately preceding the Calculation Date until the earlier of the Closing Date or the termination of this Agreement, SRI shall cause (x) NGY and its Subsidiaries not to draw against, or make payment on, any such intercompany Indebtedness owed to any other SRI Group Member and (y) the other SRI Group Members not to draw against, or make payment on, any such intercompany Indebtedness owed to NGY or any its Subsidiaries. To the extent that the NGY Payor Amount exceeds the NGY Payee Amount, then in satisfaction of all such intercompany Indebtedness, Goodyear shall cause each of NGY and its Subsidiaries to pay, without duplication, such excess amount to SRI at the Closing; provided, that if NGY and its Subsidiaries lack sufficient available unrestricted cash necessary to discharge such amount, then at the Closing Goodyear shall loan such amount to NGY for payment to SRI at the Closing, or otherwise cause such excess amount to be paid to SRI at the Closing. To the extent that the NGY Payee Amount exceeds the NGY Payor Amount, then in satisfaction of all such intercompany Indebtedness, SRI shall pay such excess amount to NGY and its Subsidiaries (without duplication), as applicable, at the Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, settlement of intercompany Indebtedness shall not include the payment of any amounts in respect of intercompany Accounts Receivable or accounts payable between NGY and its Subsidiaries and any other SRI Group Member, which shall remain outstanding and be paid in the Ordinary Course. The amount due to SRI, or due from SRI, as the case may, in accordance with this Section 2.9(b) shall be the “NGY Indebtedness Amount.”

2.10 Reconciliation.

(a) Within forty-five (45) days following the Closing, (i) Goodyear may dispute the NGY Indebtedness Amount, and (ii) SRI may dispute the GDTNA Indebtedness Amount, in each case by giving written notice of such dispute to the other Party setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for any such dispute; provided that each Party may only dispute all or a portion of such amount on the basis of an error in the mathematical calculation of the disputed amount, or the accounting treatment of the components thereof as such treatment affects the calculation of such amount.

(b) If a Party shall deliver a timely written notice of dispute as provided in this Section 2.10, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith, for a period not to exceed thirty (30) days following the delivery of such written notice of dispute (during which period the Parties shall provide access to such working papers, financial records and information relating to the dispute as may be reasonably requested by the other Party). The Parties hereby acknowledge that the calculation of the GDTNA Indebtedness Amount or the NGY Indebtedness Amount shall be calculated in good faith in accordance with the accounting principles used in the past by the Party responsible for calculating such amount pursuant to this Section 2.10.

(c) If a Party does not provide a written notice of dispute under this Section 2.10 to the other Party within the forty-five (45) day period set forth in Section 2.10(a), such Party shall be deemed to have irrevocably accepted the amount delivered to it by the other Party at Closing.

(d) If the Parties are unable to resolve any outstanding disputes regarding the final calculations of the NGY Indebtedness Amount or the GDTNA Indebtedness Amount (collectively, the “Reconciliation Amounts” and each, a “Reconciliation Amount”) within a period of thirty (30) days following the delivery of the written notice of dispute regarding the GDTNA Indebtedness Amount or NGY Indebtedness Amount, as applicable, pursuant to Section 2.10(b), the Parties shall engage the Independent Accounting Firm for a resolution of such disagreement in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.10. Goodyear and SRI shall each be party to the engagement letter entered into with the Independent Accounting Firm. If any remaining issues in dispute are submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm for resolution, each of Goodyear and SRI will be afforded an opportunity to present to the Independent Accounting Firm (with a copy to the other party) such material relating to the determination of the matters in dispute and to discuss such matters with the Independent Accounting Firm at such hearing as the Independent Accounting Firm may request or permit. The Independent Accounting Firm shall act as an arbitrator to calculate the final Reconciliation Amounts with respect to any Reconciliation Amount which is referred to the Independent Accounting Firm pursuant to this Section 2.10 and shall be instructed that its calculation must be made in accordance with the standards and definitions in this Agreement and the Independent Accounting Firm shall consider only those matters as to which there is a dispute between the parties and base its determination solely on presentations of Goodyear and SRI without conducting any independent investigation with respect to any such disagreement. Goodyear and SRI shall instruct the Independent Accounting Firm that the determinations of such firm with respect to any disagreement submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm shall be rendered within thirty (30) days after referral of such disagreement to such firm or as soon thereafter as reasonably

-26-

practicable. The Independent Accounting Firm shall make a determination with respect to any unresolved disagreement only in a manner consistent with this Section 2.10(d), and in no event shall the Independent Accounting Firm’s determination of the unresolved disagreements be for an amount that is outside the range of the respective proposals of Goodyear and SRI with respect to each individual Reconciliation Amount. Such determinations shall be final and binding upon the Parties, may be entered and enforced by the Court, and the amount so determined shall be the final Reconciliation Amounts. Each Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Independent Accounting Firm to render its determination within the thirty (30) day period within which the Independent Accounting Firm is required to render its determination, and each shall reasonably cooperate with such firm and provide such firm with access to its books, records, personnel and representatives and such other information as such firm may reasonably require in order to render its determination. Each Party shall be responsible for that fraction of the fees and costs of the Independent Accounting Firm with respect to each Reconciliation Amount subject to resolution by the Independent Accounting Firm where (1) the numerator of such fraction is the absolute value of the difference between such Party’s position with respect to the final Reconciliation Amount subject to the dispute and the final Reconciliation Amount recalculated based upon the Independent Accounting Firm’s final determination with respect to the disagreements and (2) the denominator of such fraction is the absolute value of the difference between such Party’s position with respect to the Reconciliation Amount subject to the dispute and the other Party’s position with respect to the Reconciliation Amount subject to the dispute.

(e) Promptly after the final Reconciliation Amounts have been finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.10 (including by means of a deemed acceptance of such amounts by SRI or Goodyear as provided in this Section 2.10), but in no event later than five (5) Business Days following such final determination, the applicable Party shall pay to the other Party, by Wire Transfer as set forth in written instructions from the applicable Party, the amount which represents the difference of (i) the determination by the Independent Accounting Firm of the final Reconciliation Amount subject to dispute that is owed to a Party and (ii) the amount received by such Party at the Closing with respect to such NGY Indebtedness Amount or GDTNA Indebtedness Amount, as applicable.

(f) The provisions of Section 2.10 relating to resolutions of disagreements regarding the Reconciliation Amounts by the Independent Accounting Firm are not intended to and shall not be interpreted to require or permit that the Parties refer to such a firm (i) any dispute arising out of a breach by one of the Parties of its obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any dispute the resolution of which requires the construction of this Agreement (apart from the mathematical calculation of any Reconciliation Amount and the accounting treatment of components thereof to the extent such treatment affects the calculation of any Reconciliation Amount).

(g) The adjustments contemplated by this Section 2.10 shall be the exclusive remedy of the Parties with respect to the mathematical calculation of the Reconciliation Amounts and the accounting treatment of components thereof in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.10 as such treatment affects the calculation of the Reconciliation Amounts, and no Party shall have any right of recovery under Article VII with respect thereto.

-27-

(h) Any payment by either Party under this Section 2.10 shall be treated as an adjustment to the purchase price of the relevant Transaction for any Tax purposes, except as otherwise required by applicable Law.

The Parties agree that money damages would not be an adequate remedy for any breach of this Section 4.5, and any breach of the terms of this Section 4.5 would result in irreparable harm to the other Party for which such Party would have no adequate remedy at law. Therefore, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Section 4.5, the non-breaching Party and its successors and assigns, in addition to any other rights and remedies existing in their favor at law or in equity, shall be entitled to specific performance and/or immediate injunctive or other equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction in order to enforce, or prevent any violations of, the provisions of this Section 4.5 (without posting a bond or other security), without proof of damages, and each

-67-

Party agrees that it shall not raise as a defense that an adequate remedy exists at law. The terms of this Section 4.5 shall not prevent a Party from pursuing any other available remedies for any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement.

(d) If, at the time of enforcement of this Section 4.5, a court of competent jurisdiction shall hold that the duration or scope stated herein is unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the Parties agree that the maximum duration or scope under such circumstances shall be substituted for the stated duration or scope and that the court shall be allowed to revise the restrictions contained herein to cover the maximum period and scope permitted by Law.

In the event that either Party (or any Subsidiary of any Party) receives written notice of any Action against such Party or any of its Affiliates with respect to an Alliance Period Products Liability Claim, such Party shall promptly notify in writing the other Party of such Alliance Period Products Liability Claim if such Party believes that it may be entitled to indemnification under this Section 4.6; provided, that any failure to provide prompt written notice shall not excuse the obligation of the Indemnifying Party to indemnify any Indemnitee unless such failure caused actual prejudice to the defense of such claim.

(b) From and after the Closing, the Goodyear Indemnifying Parties shall indemnify and hold harmless each SRI Indemnitee from and against any and all Damages which any SRI Indemnitee (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, NGY but including GDTNA) may suffer or incur as a result of, based upon or arising out of any Alliance Period Products Liability Claims received in writing by any Goodyear Group Member or any SRI Group Member arising out of or relating to any Products manufactured by Goodyear or any Person (other than GDTNA) that at the time of manufacture of the applicable Products was a Subsidiary of Goodyear (in either case, a “Goodyear Manufacturer”).

(c) From and after the Closing, the SRI Indemnifying Parties shall indemnify and hold harmless each Goodyear Indemnitee from and against any and all Damages which any Goodyear Indemnitee (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, GDTNA but including NGY) may suffer or incur as a result of, based upon or arising out of any Products Liability Claims received in writing by any Goodyear Group Member or any SRI Group Member arising out of or relating to any Products manufactured by the former Dunlop Tire Corporation prior to the Alliance Period or Alliance Period Products Liability Claims arising out of or relating to any Products manufactured by:

-68-

(i) SRI or any Person that at the time of manufacture of the applicable Products was a Subsidiary of SRI (which shall exclude, for the avoidance of doubt, GDTNA) (in either case, an “SRI Manufacturer”); and

(ii) GDTNA, in an aggregate amount during each Products Liability Year up to the GDTNA Annual Products Liability Cap in effect as of such Products Liability Year pursuant to the terms of Section 4.6(d).

(d) GDTNA Annual Products Liability Cap.

(i) If the aggregate amount of Damages for which the Goodyear Indemnitees and the SRI Indemnitees are entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 4.6 in any Products Liability Year in respect of Alliance Period Products Liability Claims arising out of or relating to Products manufactured by GDTNA (each a “GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claim”) exceeds six million dollars ($6,000,000) (as adjusted in accordance with the following proviso, the “GDTNA Annual Products Liability Cap”), from and after the Closing: (A) the Goodyear Indemnifying Parties shall bear seventy-five percent (75%) of all such Damages in excess of the GDTNA Annual Products Liability Cap in effect for the applicable Products Liability Year and shall indemnify and hold harmless the SRI Indemnitees from and against such share of such Damages that are in excess of the GDTNA Annual Products Liability Cap in effect for such Products Liability Year and (B) the SRI Indemnifying Parties shall bear twenty-five percent (25%) of all such Damages in excess of the GDTNA Annual Products Liability Cap in effect for the applicable Products Liability Year and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Goodyear Indemnitees from such share of such Damages that are in excess of the GDTNA Annual Products Liability Cap in effect for such Products Liability Year; provided, that in the event that the aggregate amount of Damages for which the Goodyear Indemnitees and the SRI Indemnitees are entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 4.6, in any Products Liability Year in respect of such GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claims is (x) less than six million dollars ($6,000,000), then the difference between the amount of such Damages and six million dollars ($6,000,000) shall be added to the GDTNA Annual Products Liability Cap for the subsequent Products Liability Years, or (y) greater than six million dollars ($6,000,000), then the amount of such Damages in excess of six million dollars ($6,000,000) shall, subject to the limitation set forth in the following sentence, be subtracted from the GDTNA Annual Products Liability Cap for subsequent Products Liability Years and, for the avoidance of doubt, any portion of such Damages in excess of the GDTNA Annual Products Liability Cap shall be subject to the indemnities hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties agree that the aggregate amount of the GDTNA Annual Products Liability Cap shall not exceed fifteen million dollars ($15,000,000) in any Products Liability Year, and the aggregate amount of the GDTNA Annual Products Liability Cap shall be not less than six million dollars ($6,000,000) in each Products Liability Year. For the initial Products Liability Year, the GDTNA Annual Products Liability Cap shall be an amount equal to six million dollars ($6,000,000) multiplied by a fraction equal to the number of months from the Closing Date to the end of such calendar year, divided by twelve (12).

-69-

(ii) From and after the Closing, in connection with the submission of written invoices for indemnification pursuant to Section 4.6(k), each Party shall provide the other Party with a written statement on a quarterly basis within thirty (30) calendar days following the end of each quarterly period during each Products Liability Year setting forth of all of the Damages suffered or incurred by such Party and its affiliated Indemnitees in respect of GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claims during such quarterly period and in such Products Liability Year, in each case, for which such Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 4.6 (the aggregate amount of all such Damages in respect of any Products Liability Year, the “Annual GDTNA Products Liability Amount”), including written documentation thereof. If the Annual GDTNA Products Liability Amount for any Products Liability Year, based upon the written invoices submitted by the Parties, exceeds the GDTNA Annual Products Liability Cap for such Products Liability Year, to the extent that:

(A) the Goodyear Indemnitees have suffered or incurred (after giving effect to any amounts received pursuant to Section 4.6(k) to satisfy the indemnity obligations of the SRI Indemnifying Parties pursuant to Section 4.6(c)(ii)) Damages that are less than seventy-five (75%) of such Damages in excess of the GDTNA Annual Products Liability Cap for such Products Liability Year, Goodyear shall, within thirty (30) days following the determination of the Annual GDTNA Products Liability Amount as of the end of such quarterly period during the Products Liability Year, pay to SRI an amount equal to the difference between (x) the amount of such Damages suffered or incurred by the Goodyear Indemnitees in excess of the applicable GDTNA Annual Products Liability Cap for such Products Liability Year and (y) the amount of such Damages the Goodyear Indemnifying Parties are obligated to bear pursuant to Section 4.6(d)(i)(A); or

(B) the SRI Indemnitees have suffered or incurred (after giving effect to any amounts paid pursuant to Section 4.6(k) to satisfy the indemnity obligations of the SRI Indemnifying Parties pursuant to Section 4.6(c)(ii)) Damages that are less than twenty-five (25%) of such Damages in excess of the GDTNA Annual Products Liability Cap for such Products Liability Year, SRI shall, within thirty (30) days following the determination of the Annual GDTNA Products Liability Amount as of the end of such quarterly period during the Products Liability Year , pay to Goodyear an amount equal to the difference between (x) the amount of such Damages suffered or incurred by the SRI Indemnitees in excess of the GDTNA Annual Products Liability Cap for such Products Liability Year and (y) the amount of such Damages the SRI Indemnifying Parties are obligated to bear pursuant to Section 4.6(d)(i)(B).

(e) Except as set forth in Section 4.6(f), the following procedures shall apply to any indemnification or Action with respect to Products Liability Claims pursuant to this Section 4.6:

(i) the Indemnitee shall give the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice of any Action against it (any failure to provide prompt written notice shall not excuse the

-70-

obligation of the Indemnifying Party to indemnify the Indemnitee unless such failure caused actual prejudice to the defense of the claim) and permit the Indemnifying Party the option of either defending such Action through counsel of its own selection or paying the costs of counsel selected by the Indemnitee;

(ii) the Indemnitee shall provide to the Indemnifying Party prompt and complete disclosure of all pertinent information in its possession or available to it and shall assist and cooperate in the investigation and defense of the Action;

(iii) no Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification with respect to a Products Liability Claim where such Indemnitee has compromised or settled such Products Liability Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed);

(iv) by accepting an Indemnitee’s tender of any such Products Liability Claim for indemnification, the Indemnifying Party shall not be deemed to have waived in any manner any defense that such Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnity with respect to such Products Liability Claim to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction concludes that the underlying claim was caused in whole or in part by such Indemnitee’s fault or other wrongful conduct, and each such Indemnifying Party hereby expressly reserves its rights in such regard, provided, however, that no fault or other wrongful conduct of GDTNA during the Alliance Period shall relieve the Goodyear Indemnifying Parties of any of their indemnification obligations hereunder;

(v) in the event that a court of competent jurisdiction concludes that the underlying Products Liability Claim was caused in whole or in part by an Indemnitee’s fault or other wrongful conduct and the Indemnifying Party expressly reserves its rights in such regard, then each such Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to re-tender the defense of the Indemnitee with respect to such Products Liability Claim to such Indemnitee and such Indemnitee shall be obligated to accept that tender, provided, however, that no fault or other wrongful conduct of GDTNA during the Alliance Period shall relieve the Goodyear Indemnifying Parties of any of their indemnification obligations hereunder;

(vi) the Indemnitee agrees, and agrees to use reasonable best efforts to cause its insurers and agents, to fully cooperate with such Indemnifying Party’s counsel and agents, in the defense of such Products Liability Claim in the manner set forth in Section 4.12; and

(vii) the Indemnitee shall have the right, at its own expense and on its behalf, to be represented by counsel of its choice and to participate in (but not control) the defense against, negotiation, settlement or other disposition of any such Products Liability Claim and the Indemnifying Party shall consult with the Indemnitee with respect to such Products Liability Claim with regard to any settlement terms or dismissal terms referring to or affecting such Indemnitee’s interests; provided, that the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the written consent of the applicable Indemnitee (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), settle or compromise any Products Liability Claim or

-71-

consent to entry of any judgment with respect thereto unless such settlement, compromise or judgment contains an unqualified release of such Indemnitee, its insurers, its affiliates and its agents, from all liability in respect of such Products Liability Claim.

(f) The Parties acknowledge and agree that with respect to any GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claim, Goodyear shall be responsible for defending such Action through counsel of its own selection that is reasonably satisfactory to SRI (it being acknowledged and agreed that the counsel currently retained or employed by Goodyear to defend the GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claims are acceptable). The following procedures shall apply to any indemnification or Action with respect to GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claims:

(i) each Party shall give the other Party prompt written notice of any Action in respect of a GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claim of which such Party becomes aware (any failure to provide prompt written notice shall not excuse the obligation of the Indemnifying Party in respect of such claim to indemnify the Indemnitee unless such failure caused actual prejudice to the defense of the claim);

(ii) to the extent requested by a Party, the other Party shall provide to the requesting Party prompt and complete disclosure of all pertinent information in its possession or available to it and shall assist and cooperate in the investigation and defense of the Action; provided, that the Parties intend that any transfer of any information that would otherwise be within the attorney-client privilege shall not operate as a waiver of any potentially applicable privilege and may require a mutually acceptable joint defense agreement;

(iii) no GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claim shall be compromised or settled for an amount in excess of one million dollars ($1,000,000) without the prior written consent of SRI (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), and SRI shall promptly, and in any event within three (3) Business Days following request by Goodyear, together with a brief summary of any such GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claim, authorize parameters for the settlement of such GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claim; provided that if SRI fails to consent to any such compromise settlement proposed by Goodyear, then any Damages actually incurred by the Indemnitees or in defense of such Action in excess of the proposed compromise or settlement amount shall be paid 100% by SRI and shall not reduce the then applicable GDTNA Annual Products Liability Cap;

(iv) notwithstanding anything to the contrary above, Goodyear shall have the option to forward any settlement payment obligations with respect to any GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claim that is compromised or settled pursuant to Section 4.6(f)(iii) directly to SRI for its payment, and any amounts actually paid by SRI shall be credited against the GDTNA Annual Products Liability Cap in effect for such Products Liability Year. If Goodyear makes such election, Goodyear shall provide SRI with all relevant information necessary for SRI to process and provide payment with respect to such GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claim in a timely manner, and SRI shall be responsible to pay and discharge such compromise or settlement amount

-72-

directly in accordance with the terms of the applicable compromise or settlement agreement related to such GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claim;

(v) by accepting an Indemnitee’s tender of any such GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claim for indemnification, the Indemnifying Party shall not be deemed to have waived in any manner any defense that such Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnity with respect to such GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claim to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction concludes that the underlying claim was caused in whole or in part by such Indemnitee’s fault or other wrongful conduct, and each such Indemnifying Party hereby expressly reserves its rights in such regard, provided, however, that no fault or other wrongful conduct of GDTNA during the Alliance Period shall relieve the Goodyear Indemnifying Parties of any of their indemnification obligations pursuant to this Section 4.6;

(vi) in the event that a court of competent jurisdiction concludes that an underlying GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claim was caused in whole or in part by an Indemnitee’s fault or other wrongful conduct and the Indemnifying Party expressly reserves its rights in such regard, then each such Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to re-tender the defense of the Indemnitee with respect to such GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claim to such Indemnitee and such Indemnitee shall be obligated to accept that tender, provided, however, that no fault or other wrongful conduct of GDTNA during the Alliance Period shall relieve the Goodyear Indemnifying Parties of any of their indemnification obligations pursuant to this Section 4.6;

(vii) each of the Parties agrees, and agrees to use reasonable best efforts to cause its insurers and agents, to fully cooperate with the counsel and agents of the other Party responsible for or participating in the defense of such GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claim in the manner set forth in Section 4.12;

(viii) SRI shall have the right, at its own expense and on its own behalf, to be represented by counsel of its choice and to participate in (but not control) the defense against, negotiation, settlement or other disposition of any such GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claim and Goodyear shall consult with SRI with respect to such GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claim with regard to any settlement terms, to the extent that such settlement involves the payment of an amount in excess of one million dollars ($1,000,000);

(ix) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.6, SRI acknowledges and agrees that SRI shall not be entitled to indemnification under this Section 4.6 or otherwise with respect to its costs of monitoring, processing, handling, administering, internal charges for providing witnesses, documents or information for, or otherwise incurring any costs duplicative of Goodyear’s defense of GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claims and if SRI elects to participate in the defense against, negotiation, settlement or other disposition of any GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claims, then SRI shall be responsible for all costs or expenses incurred by SRI in respect of such GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claims or Actions, and no

-73-

such costs or expenses incurred by SRI or any of its affiliated Indemnitees shall reduce the then applicable GDTNA Annual Products Liability Cap;

(x) Goodyear shall keep SRI reasonably informed regarding the conduct of the defense of all GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claims which involve an amount in controversy in excess of $25,000, including by (A) providing SRI with written reports summarizing the status of each outstanding GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claim not later than forty-five (45) days following the end of each calendar quarter, (B) consulting reasonably with SRI regarding the establishment of loss and expense reserves in respect of each GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claim, and (C) providing SRI and its Representatives with access to such other filings, records and personnel of Goodyear and such other information, all in connection with the defense of the GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claims, as SRI may reasonably request;

(xi) Goodyear shall establish and maintain a reasonable record keeping system that enables SRI to readily identify the costs and expenses incurred by Goodyear and its counsel responsible for conducting the defense of any GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claim and SRI and its Representatives shall have the right to audit, to examine, and to make copies of all such records in connection therewith; and

(xii) for the avoidance of doubt, the cost of the defense of any GDTNA Alliance Period Products Liability Claim shall be borne by the Parties in accordance with Section 4.6(c)(ii) and Section 4.6(d).

(g) If both a Goodyear Group Member and an SRI Group Member are parties to an Action, each Party hereby consents to the other Party (and/or any of its Affiliate, as applicable) being represented by the same defense counsel in the matter and each party waives any claim of a conflict of interest on the part of defense counsel. In the event of a re-tender, each Party agrees that defense counsel for the re-tendering party may continue to act as defense counsel for the re-tendering party and each party waives any claim of a conflict of interest on the part of defense counsel. In the event of any denial of any tender of defense, each Party agrees that defense counsel representing either party in the defense of any Alliance Period Products Liability Claim may also represent the same party in any Alliance Period Products Liability Claim or lawsuit and each Party waives any claim of a conflict of interest on the part of defense counsel.

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Indemnifying Party shall be liable for, or shall bear any Damages in connection with, any sanctions imposed by a court of competent jurisdiction on counsel selected by the other Party in connection with any Alliance Period Products Liability Claim.

(i) Except as set forth in any Transaction Agreement or Surviving Alliance Agreement, as between the Parties and their respective Affiliates this Section 4.6 shall govern all Alliance Period Products Liability Claims and all Products Liability Claims received in writing by any Goodyear Group Member or any SRI Group Member arising out of or relating to any Products manufactured by the former Dunlop Tire Corporation prior to the Alliance Period.

-74-

(j) Products Liability Claims relating to Products manufactured by either Party or any of their respective Affiliates pursuant to the Supply Agreements or any other Contract entered into by the Parties at any time on or after the Closing Date (including the agreements contemplated by Section 4.3 or otherwise entered into on the Closing Date), shall not be governed by this Section 4.6, but shall be governed by the terms of the applicable Supply Agreement and such other Contract entered into by the Parties following the Closing Date.

(k) Each Party seeking indemnification hereunder shall provide the applicable Indemnifying Party with a written invoice on a quarterly basis setting forth all Damages of such Party and its affiliated Indemnitees subject to indemnification pursuant to this Section 4.6 (other than Section 4.6(d)), including written documentation thereof, and the applicable Indemnifying Party shall, within thirty (30) days following receipt of such written invoice, pay to the applicable Indemnitee all amounts required to be paid and satisfied pursuant to this Section 4.6 (other than Section 4.6(d)).

(l) The amount of any Damages for which indemnification is provided under this Section 4.6 shall be net of recovery from Collateral Sources. If the amount to be netted hereunder in connection with a Collateral Source from any payment required under this Section 4.6 is received by an Indemnitee or any of its Affiliates after payment by the applicable Indemnifying Party of any amount otherwise required to be paid to an Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 4.6, such Indemnitee shall repay to the applicable Indemnifying Party, promptly after such receipt, any amount that the Indemnifying Party would not have had to pay pursuant to this Section 4.6 had such receipt occurred at the time of such payment.

4.7 Recalls.

(a) In the event that any Party becomes aware that, or any Governmental Authority or any other Person claims that, any Product manufactured during the Alliance Period by any Goodyear Manufacturer (including, for the avoidance of doubt and for all purposes of this Section 4.7, GDTNA) or any SRI Manufacturer, as applicable, (i) may not comply with any applicable motor vehicle safety standards, or (ii) may contain a defect relating to motor vehicle safety (whether such defect is caused by a defect in the design or manufacture of such Product), such Party shall notify the Party that manufactured such Product of such fact, and the applicable manufacturer shall conduct an investigation of such claim as promptly as possible.

(b) Goodyear and SRI agree that if as a result of any such investigation it is determined that any Products manufactured during the Alliance Period by a Goodyear Manufacturer or a SRI Manufacturer fail to conform to an applicable motor vehicle safety standard or contain a defect relating to motor vehicle safety, or any Governmental Authority orders a safety recall of any Products, then, subject to Section 4.7(e):

(i) the Party that was not the manufacturer of such Products or an Affiliate thereof will, at the sole cost and expense of the Party that is the manufacturer of such Products or an Affiliate thereof, use its commercially reasonable efforts to promptly obtain from those of its customers that purchased such Products subject to the recall, (A) the number of such Products in their Inventories by size and type, and (B) the identity

-75-

and contact information of each end user and/or purchaser of such Products, and will notify the manufacturer of such Products of that information;

(ii) the Parties will cooperate in good faith with each other in administering any such recall, including determining the content of all notices, news releases and public statements relating to the recall made by either Party;

(iii) unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing, the Party that was the manufacturer of such Products shall bear the reasonable cost of recalling such Products, including the cost of retrieving such Products from any end user and/or purchaser and all other reasonable costs associated with the administration of such recall, but excluding lost profits and other consequential, special, incidental and indirect damages;

(iv) the Party that was the manufacturer of such Products will repurchase all Products that the Party that was not the manufacturer of such Products or an Affiliate thereof purchased from such manufacturer that are subject to a recall order, and such manufacturer will reimburse such other Party in an amount equal to the total price that such other Party or its Affiliates paid for the recalled Products, plus the shipping costs, duties and handling costs to get those tires to the point of sale and all reasonable, out of pocket expenses incurred by such other Party or its Affiliates in collecting and returning those Products; provided, however, that: (A) upon the request of the Party that was the manufacturer of such Products, such other Party will provide reasonable evidence of the costs incurred by such other Party and its Affiliates; and (B) if the actual recall remedy provides for adjustment of the Products in some manner other than by free replacement, then the Party that was the manufacturer of such Products will reimburse such other Party for the expenses of such adjustment upon receipt of reasonably satisfactory evidence thereof; and

(v) if the Party that was the manufacturer of such Products requests the other Party to scrap the Products subject to recall, then the Party that was the manufacturer of such Products will reimburse such other Party for the costs of doing so.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any other Contract by and between any SRI Group Member and any Goodyear Group Member, this Section 4.7 shall govern all recall obligations relating to Products manufactured by either Party or any of their respective Affiliates during the Alliance Period.

(d) Recall obligations relating to Products manufactured by either Party or any of their respective Affiliates pursuant to the Supply Agreements or any other similar Contract entered into between the Parties at any time on or after the Closing Date shall not be governed by this Section 4.7, but shall be governed by the terms of the applicable Supply Agreement or such other Contract entered into on or after the Closing Date.

(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the costs and expenses to be borne by Goodyear pursuant to this Section 4.7 with respect to any Products manufactured during the Alliance Period by GDTNA, shall be reduced by an amount equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of such costs and expenses to reflect SRI’s twenty-five percent (25%) pre-closing

-76-

interest in GDTNA. Goodyear shall provide SRI with a written invoice on a quarterly basis setting forth the aggregate costs and expenses borne by Goodyear pursuant to this Section 4.7 with respect to any Products manufactured during the Alliance Period by GDTNA, including written documentation thereof, as well as setting forth the portion of such costs and expenses for which SRI is responsible pursuant to this Section 4.7(e). SRI shall pay to Goodyear an amount equal to the portion of such costs and expenses for which SRI is responsible pursuant to this Section 4.7(e) within thirty (30) days following receipt of such an invoice.

4.8 Agreement for Exchange of Information.

(a) Each Group agrees to provide, or cause to be provided, to the other Group, at any time after the Effective Date (including after the Closing), as soon as reasonably practicable after written request therefor, any Alliance Information in the possession or under the control of such respective Group, and reasonable access to the properties and employees of the Joint Venture Entities under the control of such respective Group, and, in the case of Goodyear, providing SRI reasonable access to the properties and employees and Information relating to the Huntsville Assets, that the requesting party (i) reasonably requests in connection with the Transactions (other than in connection with a dispute between the Parties) or (ii) reasonably needs (A) to comply with reporting, disclosure, filing or other requirements imposed on the requesting party (including under applicable securities or Tax laws) by a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the requesting party, (B) to comply with its obligations under this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement or (C) to facilitate the resolution of claims (other than in connection with a dispute between the Parties) made against or incurred by the requesting party relating to the Alliance (the “Permitted Purpose”); provided, however, that in the event that either Group determines that any such provision of Alliance Information could violate any applicable Law or Contract in force prior to such request, require disclosure of any trade secrets or other proprietary information or waive any attorney-client privilege, the applicable Party shall not be required to disclose such Information. The Parties intend that any transfer of Information that would otherwise be within the attorney-client privilege shall not operate as a waiver of any potentially applicable privilege; provided, further, that, subject to Section 4.13, neither Party shall, nor shall either Party permit any other Member of its Group to, use, analyze, incorporate or disclose to any Person (other than its Representatives) any of the Information disclosed pursuant to this Section 4.8 for any purpose other than a Permitted Purpose.

(b) Each Group shall continue to maintain in effect systems and controls to the extent necessary to enable the Members of the other Group to satisfy their respective reporting, accounting audit and other obligations with respect to the Alliance Information, the Alliance, any Joint Venture Entity, the Transactions, this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Agreements, in each case, as and to the extent required under applicable Laws.

Unless specifically set forth herein, nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as granting or conferring rights of license or otherwise in any such Information.

4.10 Record Retention. To facilitate the exchange of Alliance Information pursuant to this Agreement after the Effective Date, the Parties agree to use their commercially reasonable efforts to retain all Alliance Information in their respective possession or control on the Effective Date in accordance with their respective record retention policies, other than such Information which such Party is required to return or destroy in accordance with Section 4.9. No Party will otherwise destroy, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to destroy, any Alliance Information prior to the earlier of (i) the date on which such Information may be destroyed under such Party’s record retention policy and (ii) the third (3^rd) anniversary of the Closing Date without first notifying the other Party of the proposed destruction and giving the other Party the opportunity to take possession of such Information prior to such destruction; provided, however, that in the case of any Alliance Information relating to Taxes, employee-related matters or to environmental liabilities, such Alliance Information shall be retained, and not destroyed, no earlier than the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (giving effect to any extensions thereof). Moreover, no Party will destroy, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to destroy, any policies of insurance (or records related to such insurance policies that are necessary to be retained in order to preserve the right of recovery under such policies) without first notifying the other party of the proposed destruction and giving the other Party reasonable opportunity to take possession of such Information prior to such destruction, if it is possible (in the first Party’s reasonable judgment) that the other Party may be able to obtain coverage under such policies.

The Group requesting Information after Closing pursuant to this Agreement agrees to reimburse the Group providing such Information for the reasonable third party out-of-pocket costs, if any, of creating, gathering and copying such Information, to the extent that such costs are incurred for the benefit of the requesting Group.

No Party shall have any Liability to any other Party in the event that any Information exchanged or provided pursuant to this Agreement that is an estimate or forecast, or that is based on an estimate or forecast, is found to be inaccurate, in the absence of willful misconduct by the Party providing such Information. No Party shall have any Liability to any other Party if any Information is destroyed after commercially reasonable efforts by such Party to comply with the provisions of Section 4.12.

4.12 Production of Witnesses; Records; Cooperation.

(a) After the Effective Date, except in the case of an adversarial Action by one Party against the other Party pursuant to Section 8.2, each Party shall take all reasonable steps to make available to the other Party, upon written request, the directors, officers and employees of the Members of its respective Group (whether as witnesses or otherwise) and any books, records or other documents within its control or that it otherwise has the ability to make available, to the extent that such person (giving consideration to business demands of such directors, officers and employees) or books, records or other documents may reasonably be required in connection with any Action (including preparation for such Action) in which the requesting Party may from time to time be involved, regardless of whether such Action is a matter with respect to which indemnification may be sought hereunder. The requesting Party shall bear all reasonable costs and expenses in connection therewith.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, from and after the Closing, with respect to any Action resulting from, or arising out of, the SRI Excluded Liabilities and commenced by any Person other than a Member of the Goodyear Group, SRI shall be solely liable for the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Goodyear Group incurred in respect of the production or disclosure of any records, witnesses or information. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall any Goodyear Group Member be required to produce or disclose any records, witnesses or information regarding the SRI Excluded Liabilities which Goodyear is advised in writing by its external counsel to withhold from such production or disclosure because such production or disclosure would reasonably be expected to violate any applicable Law or Contract in force prior to such request or result in the waiver of any attorney client privilege (but in each case subject to the requirements of applicable Law or any order from an applicable Governmental Authority), and SRI hereby waives any rights it may claim to have against any Goodyear Group Member, and shall not commence any Action against any Goodyear Group Member, to compel such production or disclosure (subject to any obligation that any SRI Group Member has to pursue such production or disclosure pursuant to the requirements of applicable Law or an order from an applicable Governmental Authority), other than in connection with any Action commenced by any Goodyear Group Member.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, from and after the Closing, with respect to any Action resulting from, or arising out of, the Goodyear Excluded Liabilities and commenced by any Person other than a Member of the SRI Group, Goodyear shall be solely liable for the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the SRI Group incurred in respect of the production or disclosure of any records, witnesses or information. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall any SRI Group Member be required to produce or disclose any records, witnesses or

-80-

information regarding the Goodyear Excluded Liabilities which SRI is advised in writing by its external counsel to withhold from such production or disclosure because such production or disclosure would reasonably be expected to violate any applicable Law or Contract in force prior to such request or result in the waiver of any attorney client privilege (but in each case subject to the requirements of applicable Law or any order from an applicable Governmental Authority), and Goodyear hereby waives any rights it may claim to have against any SRI Group Member, and shall not commence any Action against any SRI Group Member, to compel such production or disclosure (subject to any obligation that any Goodyear Group Member has to pursue such production or disclosure pursuant to the requirements of applicable Law or an order from an applicable Governmental Authority), other than in connection with any Action commenced by any SRI Group Member.

(d) In connection with any Action contemplated by this Section 4.12, the Parties will enter into a mutually acceptable joint defense agreement so as to maintain to the extent practicable any applicable attorney-client privilege or work product immunity of either Group.

4.13 Confidentiality.

(a) Subject to Section 4.16, each Member of each Group agrees to hold, and to instruct its respective Representatives to hold, in strict confidence, with at least the same degree of care that it applies to its respective Group’s own confidential and proprietary information pursuant to policies in effect as of the Effective Date, all Alliance Information and all other Information concerning the other Group (and the assets and Equity Securities being transferred to such Group) that is either in its possession (including Information in its possession prior to and as of the Effective Date) or furnished by the other Group or its respective Representatives at any time pursuant to this Agreement, or any Transaction Agreement, and shall not use any such Information other than for such purposes as shall be expressly permitted hereunder or thereunder, except, in each case, to the extent that such Information has been (i) in the public domain through no fault of such Party or such Party’s Group or any of their respective Representatives, (ii) later lawfully acquired from other sources by such Party (or such Party’s Group), which sources are not themselves bound by a confidentiality obligation to the knowledge of such Party or members of such Party’s Group or (iii) independently generated without reference to any proprietary or confidential Information of the other Group.

(b) Each Party agrees not to release or disclose, or permit any of its Affiliates to release or disclose, any such Alliance Information or other Information concerning the other Group or the assets or Equity Securities being transferred to the other Group to any other Person, except (i) to its Representatives who need to know such Information (who shall be advised of their obligations hereunder with respect to such Information and provided that the disclosing Party shall be responsible for any breach of this Section 4.13 by such Person) in order to assist such Party with respect to any Permitted Purpose or other purpose set forth in clauses (ii) through (v) below; (ii) to the extent required by Law, including the regulations of any applicable stock exchange; (iii) to the creditors of such Group to the extent required in connection with any compliance obligations with respect thereto or consent request required in respect of such creditors, (iv) to the extent required to comply with any request by Governmental Authorities, or (v) to any rating agency to the extent necessary, in such Party’s commercially reasonable

-81-

business judgment; provided that in the case of each clause (ii) through (v) above, such Person receiving Information is advised of the disclosing Party’s obligations hereunder and the disclosing Party makes commercially reasonable attempts to obtain appropriate non-disclosure agreements therefrom. Without limiting the foregoing, when any Information held by one Group concerning the other Group or the assets being transferred to the other Group is no longer needed for the purposes contemplated by this Agreement or any Transaction Agreement (including in connection with any Dispute related to any such matters), each Party shall cause each Member of the Group holding such confidential information of the other Group to, except as otherwise required by Law, promptly after request of such other Group either return to the requesting Group all such Information in a tangible form (including all copies thereof and all notes, extracts or summaries based thereon) or certify to the other Group that it has destroyed such Information (and all electronic or other copies thereof and all notes, extracts or summaries based thereon).

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Party hereby agrees that the firewall policies, confidentiality obligations and conditions for the disclosure of confidential information set forth in the Surviving Alliance Agreements shall survive the Closing.

(d) Except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement, the obligations of each Group pursuant to this Section 4.13 shall be in effect for a period beginning on the date of this Agreement through the fifth (5^th) anniversary of the Closing Date.

4.14 Protective Arrangements. In the event that any Party or any Member of its Group either determines on the advice of its counsel that it is required to disclose any Information concerning the other Group (or the assets and Equity Securities being transferred to the other Group) pursuant to applicable Law (including the rules of any securities exchange) or receives any demand under lawful process or from any Governmental Authority to disclose or provide Information concerning the other Group (or the assets being transferred to the other Group) that is subject to the confidentiality provisions hereof, such Party shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, use commercially reasonable efforts to notify the other Group prior to disclosing or providing such Information and shall cooperate at the expense of the requesting party in seeking any reasonable protective arrangements requested by such other party. Subject to the foregoing, the Person that received such request may thereafter disclose or provide Information but only to the extent required by such Law (as so advised by counsel) or by lawful process or such Governmental Authority.

4.15 Further Assurances.

(a) In addition to the actions specifically provided for elsewhere in this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements, but subject to the provisions hereof and thereof, each of the Parties hereto shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Closing to occur and to consummate and make effective the Transactions, including all actions and all things necessary for such Party (i) to comply promptly with all legal requirements that may be imposed on it with respect to this Agreement and the Transactions (which actions shall include furnishing all information required by applicable Law in connection with approvals of or filings with any Governmental Authority), (ii) to satisfy the conditions to Closing set forth in Article V, (iii) to obtain any Consent of, or any exemption by, any Governmental Authority or other Person

-82-

(b) Without limiting the foregoing each Party shall cooperate with the other Party, and without any further consideration, to execute and deliver, or use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be executed and delivered, all instruments, including instruments of conveyance, assignment and transfer, and to make all filings with, and to obtain all Consents of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person under any Permit or Contract, and to take all such other actions as such party may reasonably be requested to take by any other Party from time to time, consistent with the terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements, in order to effectuate the provisions and purposes of this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements and the consummation of the Transactions; provided, that such actions and obligations shall be subject to the limitations set forth in Section 4.16(e).

4.16 Regulatory Matters.

(a) Each Party shall, and cause its Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to as promptly as practicable after the Effective Date prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, all necessary documentation to effect all applications, notices, petitions and filings with, and to obtain as promptly as practicable after the Effective Date all Consents of, all Governmental Authorities and other third parties that are necessary or advisable to timely consummate the Transactions as required under applicable Antitrust Laws, including: (i) Notification and Report Forms with the FTC and DOJ if required by the HSR Act, which forms will not request early termination of the waiting period prescribed by the HSR Act and (ii) filings required by the merger notification or control Laws or regulations of any other applicable jurisdictions, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 4.16(e) and (iii) to supply as promptly as practicable to the appropriate Governmental Authorities any additional information and documentary material that may be requested pursuant to the HSR Act or such other applicable foreign merger notification or merger control laws.

(b) The Parties agree to take all reasonable steps necessary to satisfy any conditions or requirements imposed by any Governmental Authority in connection with the consummation of the Transactions. Except as may be prohibited by any Governmental Authority, the Parties will consult and cooperate with one another, and will consider in good faith the views of one another, in connection with any analysis, appearance, presentation, memorandum, brief, argument, opinion or proposal made or submitted in connection with any suit, claim, action, investigation or proceeding under or relating to the HSR Act or any other

-83-

Antitrust Law. Each Party (the “Reviewing Party”) will have the right to review in advance, and each other Party (the “Filing Party”) will consult with the Reviewing Party on, all the information relating to the Reviewing Party and its Affiliates that appears in any filing or written materials submitted by the Filing Party to any Governmental Authority in connection with the Transactions. Each of the Parties agrees that none of the information regarding it or any of its Affiliates supplied or to be supplied by it, or to be supplied on its behalf, in writing specifically for inclusion in any documents to be filed with any Governmental Authority in connection with the Transactions will, at the respective times such documents are filed with any Governmental Authority, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(c) Each Party shall promptly advise the other Party upon receiving any material communication from any Governmental Authority relating to the Transactions or adversely affecting its ability to timely consummate any of the Transactions.

(d) Each Party agrees to cooperate and use its commercially reasonable efforts to contest and resist any action, including administrative or judicial action, and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any decree, judgment, injunction or other order (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) that is in effect and that restricts, prevents or prohibits consummation of the Transactions, including by vigorously pursuing all available avenues of administrative and judicial appeal.

(e) Neither Party’s obligations under Section 4.15 to use commercially reasonable efforts to consummate the Transactions or to obtain the required Consents of Governmental Authorities under this Section 4.16 shall include (i) proposing, negotiating, committing to or effecting, by consent decree, hold separate order, or otherwise, the sale, transfer, license, divestiture or other disposition of, or any prohibition or limitation on the ownership, operation, effective control or exercise of full rights of ownership of, any of the businesses, product lines or assets of such Party or any of its Affiliates (including (x) with respect to Goodyear, GDTE and, following the Closing, NGY and its Subsidiaries, and (y) with respect to SRI, DGT and, following the Closing, GDTNA), (ii) terminating, modifying or assigning existing relationships, Contracts or obligations of such Party’s Group or those relating to any assets, properties or businesses to be acquired pursuant to this Agreement, (iii) changing or modifying any course of conduct regarding future operations of such Party’s Group or those relating to any assets, properties or businesses to be acquired pursuant to this Agreement, or (iv) otherwise taking or committing to take any other action that would limit the freedom of action of such Party or its Affiliates with respect to, or their ability to retain, one or more of their respective operations, divisions, businesses, product lines, customers, assets or rights or interests, or their freedom of action with respect to the assets, properties or businesses to be acquired pursuant to this Agreement.

4.17 FIRPTA. On or prior to the Closing Goodyear shall deliver to SRI a duly executed non-foreign person affidavit meeting the requirements of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1445-2(b)(2) to the effect that withholding of tax under Section 1445 of the Code is not required in respect of the transfer of the Huntsville Assets.

4.18 Withholding. Notwithstanding any provision contained herein to the contrary, each of the Parties, their Affiliates, and their respective agents shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable under this Agreement such amounts as may be required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under any provision of applicable Law, and any such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the applicable Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid. In connection with the foregoing, the Parties shall reasonably cooperate (including by sharing any relevant documentation, certifications, or forms) to avoid or minimize any obligation to withhold or deduct any amount from any payment required to be made pursuant to this Agreement.

4.19 Section 754 Election and Termination of GDTNA Partnership Status for U.S. Federal Income Tax Purposes. At the written request of SRI, if not already in effect, the Parties agree to cause GDTNA to make an election pursuant to Section 754 of the Code (and any comparable or similar provisions of state, local, or foreign Law) to be effective for its taxable year that ends on the Closing Date. The Parties agree that as of the Closing, the partnership status of GDTNA for U.S. federal and applicable state and local income tax purposes will terminate pursuant to Section 708 of the Code (and any comparable provisions of state and local law).

4.20 Tax Returns; Tax Cooperation.

(a) The Party that held (directly or indirectly) the majority interest of a Joint Venture Entity for a Pre-Closing Tax Period (other than a Straddle Period) shall prepare and file or shall cause to be prepared and filed any Tax Return that is required to be filed by or with respect to such Joint Venture Entity for such Pre-Closing Tax Period (a “Pre-Closing Tax Return”). The Party that acquires the Equity Securities of a Joint Venture Entity shall prepare and file or shall cause to be prepared and filed any Tax Return that is required to be filed by or with respect to such Joint Venture Entity for a Straddle Period (a “Straddle Period Tax Return”). The appropriate filing Party shall (i) prepare or shall cause to be prepared such Pre-Closing Tax Returns and/or Straddle Period Tax Returns consistent with past practice and (ii) provide copies of a Pre-Closing Tax Return or Straddle Period Tax Return, as applicable, to the non-filing Party at least twenty (20) days prior to the due date (including extensions) of any Pre-Closing Tax Return or Straddle Period Tax Return for the non-filing Party’s review, comment, and approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(b) Following the Closing, except where required by applicable Law, neither Goodyear nor SRI will, or cause or permit any of their respective Subsidiaries to, amend, refile or otherwise modify, any Tax election or Tax Return with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period without the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent shall not be denied, conditioned or delayed unreasonably, unless such action would not reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the Tax liability of such other Party (or any of its Affiliates).

(c) Following the Closing, Goodyear, SRI, and their respective Affiliates shall provide each other with such cooperation and information as either of them reasonably may request of the other in filing any Tax Return, amended Tax Return or claim for refund,

-85-

determining a liability for Taxes or a right to a refund of Taxes or participating in or conducting a Pre-Closing Tax Claim. Such cooperation and information shall include providing copies of relevant Tax Returns or portions thereof, together with related work papers and documents relating to rulings or other determinations by taxing authorities. The Parties shall make themselves (and their respective employees) reasonably available on a mutually convenient basis to provide explanations of any documents or information made available under this Section 4.20(c). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.20(c), Goodyear and SRI shall retain all Tax Returns, work papers and all material records or other documents in their possession (or in the possession of their Affiliates) relating to Tax matters of the Joint Venture Entities for any Pre-Closing Tax Period until the later of (i) the expiration of the statute of limitations of the taxable periods to which such Tax Returns and other documents relate, without regard to extensions or (ii) six (6) years following the due date (without extension) for such Tax Returns. After such time, before a Party shall dispose of any such documents in their possession (or in the possession of their Affiliates), the other Party shall be given an opportunity, after thirty (30) days prior written notice, to remove and retain all or any part of such documents as such other Party may select (at such other Party’s expense).

4.21 Allocation.

(a) Schedule 4.21(a) (the “Allocation Schedule”) sets forth the amount of consideration allocated to each of the Transactions to be consummated at the Closing, including the transfer of the GDTNA Securities, the GDTE Securities, the DGT Securities, the NGY Securities and the Huntsville Assets.

(b) To the extent that a transfer of Equity Securities of an entity is treated as a transfer of such entity’s assets for applicable U.S. federal, state, local or foreign Tax purposes, within thirty (30) days after the Effective Date, SRI shall prepare and deliver to Goodyear a proposed allocation of the amount of consideration (plus any additional amounts treated as consideration for applicable U.S. federal, state, local or foreign Tax purposes) allocated to the assets and liabilities of such entity, prepared in a manner consistent with the Allocation Schedule, Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Asset Allocation Schedule”). Goodyear shall have a period of thirty (30) days after the delivery of the Asset Allocation Schedule (the “Response Period”) to present in writing to SRI notice of any objections that Goodyear may have to the allocations set forth therein (an “Objections Notice”). Unless Goodyear timely objects within the Response Period, the Asset Allocation Schedule delivered by SRI shall be binding on the Parties without further adjustment, absent manifest error. If Goodyear raises any objections within the Response Period, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith and use their reasonable best efforts to resolve such dispute. If the Parties fail to agree within fifteen (15) Business Days after the delivery of the Objections Notice, then the disputed items shall be resolved by the Independent Accounting Firm. All of the corresponding costs, fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be borne fifty percent (50%) by SRI and fifty percent (50%) by Goodyear.

(c) In preparing the Allocation Schedule and Asset Allocation Schedule, the Parties agree, neither DGT nor NGY have any goodwill and, accordingly, the fair market value of each of DGT and NGY shall be equal to their respective net book value as of September 30, 2015 (as estimated by the Parties as of the Effective Date).

-86-

(d) No Party shall take, or permit any of its Affiliates to take, any position inconsistent with the Allocation Schedule or the Asset Allocation Schedule for any applicable Tax purpose, unless required to do so by a final determination of liability in respect of a Tax that is not subject to further appeal, review or modification through proceedings or otherwise, provided, however, that no such determination shall have any impact on the aggregate amount of consideration payable, or the amount of the Closing Date Payment payable, pursuant to Section 2.6 and the Parties hereby agree that no adjustment shall be made to any such payment.

4.22 Employees Matters.

(a) Seconded Employees.

(i) Schedule 4.22 sets forth a list of all Employees of any Goodyear Group Member seconded, immediately prior to the Closing Date to any SRI Group Member and all Employees of any SRI Group Member seconded, immediately prior to the Closing Date to any Goodyear Group Member (such Employees, the “Seconded Employees”), provided that employees (x) seconded by or to GDTNA by or to any Member of the SRI Group other than NGY and its Subsidiaries and (y) seconded by or to NGY or its Subsidiaries by or to any Member of the Goodyear Group other than GDTNA, shall not, in each case, be Seconded Employees. As of the Closing Date, the secondment of each such Seconded Employee shall terminate, and, unless otherwise indicated on Schedule 4.22 as a “retained employee” (“Retained Employees”), (i) each such Seconded Employee shall cease to be authorized as a representative of the SRI Group Member or Goodyear Group Member, as applicable, to which such Seconded Employee served during such secondment, and (ii) each such Seconded Employee shall return to the employ of their original employer.

(ii) Each Party agrees that it shall, and cause each of its Group Members, as applicable, to, following the Closing, continue the terms of employment of the Retained Employees substantially as in effect immediately preceding the Closing for a period of not less than two (2) years, as a direct employee of such applicable entity.

(iii) From and after the Closing Date, (i) Goodyear shall, and shall cause each Goodyear Group Member to, indemnify, defend and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, the Employees of the SRI Group Members who on or prior to the Closing Date were seconded to the Goodyear Group and (ii) SRI shall, and shall cause each SRI Group Member to, indemnify, defend and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, the Employees of the Goodyear Group Members who on or prior to the Closing Date were seconded to the SRI Group, in each case with respect to all acts or omissions by them in their capacities as Seconded Employees or taken at the request of any member of the Goodyear Group or SRI Group, as applicable, at any time on or prior to the Closing Date, in each case other than with respect to any gross negligence, willful misconduct, fraud, illegal conduct or activities.

(b) Transferred Employees.

-87-

(i) For at least twenty four (24) months following the Closing, SRI shall cause GDTNA to either (i) maintain in effect on behalf of employees of GDTNA all employment, severance, termination, consulting, retirement and other compensation and benefit plans, programs, arrangements, agreements and policies (other than any equity-based plans) of GDTNA (including, as applicable, any compensation, benefits, programs, arrangements, agreements or policies directed or required by any collective bargaining agreement in effect as of the Effective Date) as in effect as of the Effective Date (the “GDTNA Benefit Plans”, true and correct copies of such GDTNA Benefit Plans have been provided to SRI), or (ii) provide all employees of GDTNA with such compensation and benefit plans, programs, arrangements, agreements and policies that in the aggregate are substantially comparable to the aggregate level of compensation and benefits provided under the GDTNA Benefit Plans as of the Closing, provided that, with respect to any employees that are subject to or the beneficiary of any collective bargaining agreement in effect at such time, such compensation, benefits, programs, arrangements, agreement and policies shall only be implemented in accordance with the terms and conditions of such collective bargaining agreement. SRI shall take all actions required so that eligible employees of GDTNA shall receive service credit for all purposes under any successor employee benefit plans and arrangements sponsored by the SRI Group. To the extent that SRI modifies, or permits GDTNA to modify, any coverage or benefit plans under which the employees of GDTNA participate, SRI shall waive any applicable waiting periods, pre-existing conditions or actively-at-work requirements and shall give such employees of GDTNA credit under the new coverages or benefit plans for deductibles, co-payments and out-of-pocket payments that have been paid during the year in which such coverage or plan modification occurs. If the employment of any employee of GDTNA is terminated within twenty-four (24) months following the Closing, SRI shall cause GDTNA to pay such employee a severance benefit that shall in no event be less than, or paid later than, the severance benefit, if any, to which such employee would have been entitled if GDTNA’s severance plan, if any, as in effect immediately prior to the Closing, applied to such termination of employment. As promptly as practicable following the Closing Date, the Parties agree to cause the location of employment of each employee of GDTNA to be the Buffalo Plant or the Huntsville Test Track, as applicable, and all costs and expenses (including under the GDTNA Benefit Plans), if any, of relocating such employees to such employment locations shall be borne by SRI. In the event that any employee of GDTNA whose location of employment, immediately prior to the Closing was not either the Buffalo Plant or the Huntsville Test Track, declines (without any solicitation or other encouragement by any Goodyear Group Member) to continue his or her employment at the Buffalo Plant or the Huntsville Test Track, each Goodyear Group Member shall be permitted to solicit, recruit or hire each such employee. SRI shall be responsible for the payment of all severance payments or other amounts due and payable to such individuals whose employment has been so terminated pursuant to the GDTNA Benefit Plans or applicable Law upon the termination of their employment with GDTNA; provided, that, in the event that any such employee is hired by Goodyear or any of its Subsidiaries during the following nine (9) months, then Goodyear shall reimburse SRI for all severance payments or other amounts paid to such individual pursuant to the GDTNA Benefit Plans or applicable Law upon the termination of such individual’s employment with GDTNA.

-88-

(ii) For at least twenty four (24) months following the Closing, Goodyear shall cause NGY to either (i) maintain in effect on behalf of employees of NGY and its Subsidiaries all employment, severance, termination, consulting, retirement and other compensation and benefit plans, programs, arrangements, agreements and policies (other than any equity-based plans) of NGY (including, as applicable, any compensation, benefits, programs, arrangements, agreements or policies directed or required by any collective bargaining agreement in effect as of the Effective Date) as in effect as of the Effective Date (the “NGY Benefit Plans”, true and correct copies of such NGY Benefit Plans have been provided to Goodyear), or (ii) provide all employees of NGY and its Subsidiaries with such compensation and benefit plans, programs, arrangements, agreements and policies that in the aggregate are substantially comparable to the aggregate level of compensation and benefits provided under the NGY Benefit Plans as of the Closing, provided that, with respect to any employees that are subject to or the beneficiary of any collective bargaining agreement in effect at such time, such compensation, benefits, programs, arrangements, agreement and policies shall only be implemented in accordance with the terms and conditions of such collective bargaining agreement. Goodyear shall take all actions required so that eligible employees of NGY and its Subsidiaries shall receive service credit for all purposes under any successor employee benefit plans and arrangements sponsored by the Goodyear Group. To the extent that Goodyear modifies, or permits NGY to modify, any coverage or benefit plans under which the employees of NGY and its Subsidiaries participate, Goodyear shall waive any applicable waiting periods, pre-existing conditions or actively-at-work requirements and shall give such employees of NGY and its Subsidiaries credit under the new coverages or benefit plans for deductibles, co-payments and out-of-pocket payments that have been paid during the year in which such coverage or plan modification occurs. If the employment of any employee of NGY or any of its Subsidiaries is terminated within twenty-four (24) months following the Closing, Goodyear shall cause NGY to pay such employee a severance benefit that shall in no event be less than, or paid later than, the severance benefit, if any, to which such employee would have been entitled if NGY’s severance plan, if any, as in effect immediately prior to the Closing, applied to such termination of employment.

(i) As of the Closing, (i) SRI will enter into a trust agreement to establish a master trust (the “SRI Trust”) for the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ Hourly Employees of GDTNA, the 1970 Pension Plan for Huntsville, Alabama Hourly Employees of GDTNA and the Salaried Employees Retirement Plan of GDTNA (collectively, the “GDTNA Pension Plans”) and (ii) Goodyear shall cause the trustee of The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company Common Trust for the Collective Investment of Retirement Plan Funds (the “Goodyear Trust”) to transfer in-kind to the SRI Trust assets in an aggregate amount equal to the entire interest of each of the GDTNA Pension Plans in the Goodyear Trust (measured as of the date of such transfer).

(ii) Any fees or distributions incurred but not paid by the GDTNA Pension Plans within and while participating in the Goodyear Trust at the time of transfer, will be billed to and promptly paid by the GDTNA Pension Plans.

-89-

(d) Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, shall: (i) confer upon any Retained Employee, any employee of GDTNA, any employee of NGY or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Representative of any such employee, any rights or remedies, including any right to employment or continued employment for any period or terms of employment, for any nature whatsoever, or (ii) be interpreted to prevent or restrict the applicable employer of such employee from modifying or terminating the employment or terms of employment of any such employee, including the amendment or termination of any employee benefit or compensation plan, program or arrangement, after the Closing.

4.23 Real Property Conveyance. At the Closing, Goodyear shall convey to SRI, by special warranty deed in the customary form for Alabama (the “Huntsville Special Warranty Deed”), good fee title to the Huntsville Real Property, free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens). Goodyear shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist SRI in its efforts to obtain, at the sole cost and expense of SRI, title insurance from a title insurer reasonably acceptable to SRI insuring good title to the Huntsville Real Property subject only to Permitted Liens, together with such affidavits of title or other affidavits as may be customarily and reasonably required by such title company in a form reasonably acceptable to SRI and such title company.

7.4 Procedures for Indemnification of Third Party Claims.

(a) If an Indemnitee shall receive notice of the assertion by a Person (including any Governmental Authority) who is not a Member of either Group of any claim or of the commencement by any such Person of any Action (collectively, a “Third Party Claim”) with respect to which an Indemnifying Party may be obligated to provide indemnification to such Indemnitee pursuant to Section 7.1 or Section 7.2, or any other Section of this Agreement or any other Dissolution Document (except as otherwise provided therein), such Indemnitee shall give such Indemnifying Party prompt written notice of the assertion of such claim or commencement of such Action. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of any Indemnitee to give notice as provided in this Section 7.4(a) shall not relieve the related Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Dissolution Document, except to the extent that such Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice.

(b) The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after the receipt of written notice from an Indemnitee in accordance with Section 7.4(a) (or sooner, if the nature of such Third Party Claim so requires) to assume the conduct and control of the settlement or defense of such Third Party Claim at such Indemnifying Party’s own expense and by such Indemnifying Party’s own counsel and the Indemnitee shall cooperate with Indemnifying Party in connection therewith; provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnitee may elect to defend any Excepted Third Party Claim by making such election concurrently with the

-101-

delivery of the notice of such Third Party Claim pursuant to Section 7.4(a), and the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to elect to defend such Excepted Third Party Claim only if the Indemnitee does not elect to do so. After notice from an Indemnifying Party to an Indemnitee of its election to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim (other than an Excepted Third Party Claim), such Indemnitee shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in (but not control) the defense, compromise, or settlement thereof, but the Indemnitee shall be responsible for the fees and expenses of such counsel.

(c) If an Indemnifying Party elects not to assume responsibility for defending a Third Party Claim, or fails to notify an Indemnitee of its election as provided in Section 7.4(b), or in the case of an Excepted Third Party Claim which such Indemnitee has elected to defend, such Indemnitee may defend such Third Party Claim at the reasonable cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party.

(d) No Indemnitee may settle or compromise any Third Party Claim (including any Excepted Third Party Claim) without the consent of the Indemnifying Party (which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), unless such Indemnitee has waived any rights to indemnification hereunder in respect of such Third Party Claim.

(e) Without the consent of the Indemnitee (which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into or consent to any settlement or compromise of any Third Party Claim, unless such settlement or compromise involves only the payment of money damages (and such amount is so paid by the Indemnifying Party), does not impose any equitable relief upon the Indemnitee or any of its Affiliates, or any of its or their respective Representatives, contains an unconditional release of the Indemnitee, each of its Affiliates and each of its and their respective Representatives in respect of such claim, and does not include an admission of responsibility by the Indemnitee, any of its Affiliates or any of its and their respective Representatives in respect of such claim. The Indemnifying Party shall use its reasonable best efforts to require that the parties to such a settlement maintain the confidentiality of the terms and existence of such settlement or compromise, subject to customary exceptions.

7.5 Additional Matters.

(a) Promptly after the incurrence of any Damages by any Indemnitee that does not result from a Third Party Claim, which might give rise to indemnification hereunder, the Indemnitee shall deliver to the applicable Indemnifying Parties a certificate (a “Claim Certificate”), which Claim Certificate shall: (i) state that the Indemnitee has paid or anticipates it will incur liability for Damages for which such Indemnitee believes it is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement; and (ii) specify in reasonable detail each individual item of Damages included in the amount so stated, the date such item was paid (if paid), the basis for any anticipated Liability and the nature of the misrepresentation, breach of warranty, breach of covenant or claim to which each such item is related and the computation, if possible, of the amount to which such Indemnitee claims to be entitled hereunder.

(b) In the event that the Indemnifying Party shall object to the indemnification of an Indemnitee in respect of any claim or claims specified in any Claim Certificate (other than

-102-

a Third Party Claim, which is addressed in Section 7.4), the Indemnifying Party shall, within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Indemnitee of such Claim Certificate, deliver to the Indemnitee a notice to such effect, specifying in reasonable detail the basis for such objection and the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnitee shall, within the sixty (60) day period beginning on the date of receipt by the Indemnitee of such objection, attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims to which the Indemnifying Party shall have so objected. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond within such period, such Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have refused to accept responsibility to make payment. If the Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party reach agreement on their respective rights with respect to any of such claims, the Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party shall promptly prepare and sign a memorandum of agreement setting forth such agreement. If the Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party are unable to agree as to any particular item or items or amount or amounts within such time period, then the Indemnitee shall be permitted to submit such Dispute to arbitration as set forth in Section 8.2 for resolution.

(c) In the event of payment by or on behalf of any Indemnifying Party to any Indemnitee in connection with any Third Party Claim, such Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to and shall stand in the place of such Indemnitee as to any events or circumstances in respect of which such Indemnitee may have any right, defense or claim relating to such Third Party Claim against any claimant or plaintiff asserting such Third Party Claim or against any other Person but only to the extent of such payment. Such Indemnitee shall cooperate with such Indemnifying Party in a reasonable manner, and at the reasonable cost and expense of such Indemnifying Party, in prosecuting any subrogated right, defense or claim.

7.6 Remedies. Following the Closing and without limiting any rights of the Parties under this Agreement, the sole and exclusive remedy for any and all claims arising under, out of, or related to this Agreement, or the sale and purchase of the Subject Securities, shall be the rights of indemnification set forth in Article VII only, and no Person will have any other entitlement, remedy or recourse, whether in contract, tort or otherwise, except (i) in the case of fraud, in which case the injured party has all rights and remedies available at Law or in equity or by statute or otherwise; and (ii) for the additional remedies specifically enumerated in Section 4.6 and Section 4.7.

7.7 Survival.

(b) No Person shall be liable for any claim for indemnification under this Article VII unless a Claim Certificate is delivered by the Person seeking indemnification to the Person from whom indemnification is sought prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period, in which case the representation or warranty which is the subject of such claim shall survive, to the extent of the claims described in such Claim Certificate only, until such claim is resolved, whether or not the amount of the Damages resulting from such breach has been finally determined at the time the notice is given.

(c) The rights and obligations of each Party and their respective Indemnitees under this Article VII shall survive the sale or other transfer by any party of any assets pursuant to the Transactions or the assignment by any Party of any Liabilities.

(ii) Any Pre-Closing Tax Claim that relates to Transfer Taxes addressed in Section 7.9, Transaction Taxes addressed in Section 7.10, or any Taxes addressed in

-104-

Section 7.12 shall be controlled by the Party that is liable for such Taxes under such Sections.

(b) SRI and Goodyear shall be liable, in proportion to each Party’s respective Pre-Closing Percentage Interests in the relevant entity, for Taxes required to be paid to a Governmental Authority with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period relating to any Joint Venture Entity, excluding any Taxes that are accrued on the balance sheet of such entity as of the Closing Date in accordance with GAAP or JGAAP, as applicable.

(c) In the case of any Taxes that are imposed on the Joint Venture Entity with respect to a Straddle Period, (i) Property Taxes of the Joint Venture Entity allocable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be equal to the amount of such Taxes for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during the Straddle Period that are in the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Straddle Period; and (ii) Taxes (other than Property Taxes) of the Joint Venture Entity allocable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be computed as if such taxable period ended on and included the Closing Date.

7.9 Transfer Taxes. In the case of a transfer (or other disposition) of Equity Securities pursuant to Article II, Transfer Taxes payable with respect to such transfer shall be borne (a) 50% by SRI and Goodyear in proportion to their respective Pre-Closing Percentage Interests in the relevant Equity Securities and (b) 50% by the applicable purchaser of Subject Securities. In the case of the dissolution of Purchasing JV and Technology JV, Transfer Taxes payable with respect to any such dissolution shall be borne by Goodyear and SRI based on their respective Pre-Closing Percentage Interests in Purchasing JV or Technology JV, as applicable. In the case of the transfer of the Huntsville Assets, Transfer Taxes payable with respect to such transfer shall be borne 50% by SRI and 50% Goodyear. Any Tax Returns required to be filed with respect to any Transfer Taxes shall be prepared and filed by the Party required to do so under applicable Law, provided that the non-filing Party shall (i) provide the filing Party with such cooperation and information as it reasonably may request in connection with filing any Tax Return with respect to Transfer Taxes and (ii) pay its share of Transfer Taxes to the filing Party at least three (3) days prior to the due date for filing the applicable Tax Return, and the filing Party shall promptly provide the non-filing Party with a copy of the filed Tax Return and a copy of a receipt showing payment of the applicable Transfer Taxes.

7.10 Income Tax on Transactions. Except for any Transfer Taxes, the Parties agree that any liability for income taxes assessed against a Party or its Affiliates by any country in connection with the sale, transfer or exchange of the Subject Securities or any other asset or in connection with the Transactions (“Transaction Income Taxes”) shall be the sole liability of the selling Party, and such selling Party shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the purchasing Party and its Affiliates in accordance with this Article VII. The Parties further acknowledge and agree that in connection with the sale, transfer or exchange of the Subject Securities or any other asset or in connection with the Transactions, the applicable purchasing Party shall be responsible for any Liability for penalties and interest imposed as a result of the failure by the applicable purchasing Party to timely withhold and pay over to the applicable Governmental Authority Taxes pursuant to Section 4.18, unless such failure resulted from the applicable selling Party’s failure to timely provide the applicable purchasing Party with any tax certificate reasonably

-105-

requested by such purchasing Party, or the inaccuracy or incompleteness of any such certificate supplied by the applicable selling Party to the applicable purchasing Party.

7.11 Tax Treatment of Indemnity Payments.

ARTICLE VIII

MISCELLANEOUS

8.1 Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or the other Transaction Agreements, each Party shall pay its own fees and expenses (including the fees and expenses of its agents, representatives, attorneys, and accountants) incurred in connection with the negotiation, drafting, execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement.

8.2 Governing Law and Dispute Resolution.

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York and without regard to choice or conflicts of law doctrines (other than New York General Obligations Law, Section 5 1401, which shall apply) to the extent the application of the law of another jurisdiction would be required thereby.

(b) A Party claiming that a Dispute has arisen from the Dissolution, this Agreement or any other Dissolution Document must give written notice to the other Party setting out the nature of the Dispute (the “Dispute Notice”). On receipt of the Dispute Notice, the Parties will attempt to settle any such Dispute through good faith negotiations in the spirit of mutual cooperation between senior business executives of Goodyear and SRI who have the authority to resolve the controversy.

(c) The Parties agree that any Dispute (other than claims for injunctive relief) that cannot be resolved by the Parties hereto through good faith negotiations within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Dispute Notice shall be finally settled by arbitration administered by the International Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (“ICC”) as follows:

(i) The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the Arbitration Rules of the ICC in effect at the time of the arbitration (“ICC Rules”), except as they may be modified herein or by agreement of Goodyear and SRI. The arbitration shall be

-106-

conducted by three arbitrators appointed in accordance with the ICC Rules, including specifically Rules 12(4) and 13(5).

(ii) The legal place of arbitration, as well as the location of any hearings, shall be Paris, France.

(iii) The proceedings shall be conducted in the English language.

(iv) The award rendered by the arbitrators (the “Award”) shall be final and binding on the Parties and their respective Affiliates. Judgment on the Award may be entered in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Court”) and for the purposes hereof the Parties agree to consent and cause their respective Affiliates to consent to the jurisdiction of such Court. The Award may be enforced in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

(v) The Parties agree that the IBA Rules on the Taking of Evidence in International Arbitration in effect at the time of the arbitration shall govern in an arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 8.2. In addition, subject to the determination of the tribunal, each Party shall produce relevant, non privileged documents or copies thereof requested by the other Party within the time limits set by the tribunal. Depositions of Party witnesses may be ordered by the tribunal upon a showing of need.

(vi) All hearings shall be transcribed and the costs of such transcription shall be treated as costs of the arbitration.

(vii) By agreeing to arbitration, the Parties do not intend to deprive any court with jurisdiction of its ability to issue a preliminary injunction, attachment or other form of provisional remedy in aid of the arbitration and a request for such provisional remedies by a Party to a court shall not be deemed a waiver of this agreement to arbitrate. In addition to the authority conferred upon the tribunal by the ICC Rules specified above, the tribunal shall also have the authority to grant provisional remedies, including injunctive relief, and shall have the authority to award specific performance.

(viii) Except as may be required by applicable law or court order, the Parties agree to maintain confidentiality as to all aspects of the arbitration, including its existence and results, except that nothing herein shall prevent any Party from disclosing information regarding the arbitration for purposes of enforcing the Award or in any court proceeding involving the Parties. The Parties further agree to obtain the arbitrators’ agreement to preserve the confidentiality of the arbitration.

(d) Each Party acknowledges that it could be impossible to determine the amount of damages that would result from any breach by a Party of Section 4.2, Section 4.5(b), Section 4.6, Section 4.7, Section 4.8, Section 4.9, Section 4.10, Section 4.12, Section 4.13, Section 4.14, Section 4.15(a)(vi), Section 4.22(b), Section 4.22(c), Section 4.29(a) or the obligations of such Party to consummate the Transactions in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and that the remedy at law for any breach, or threatened breach, of any of such provisions would likely be inadequate and, accordingly, agrees that the other Party

-107-

shall, in addition to any other rights or remedies which it may have pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, be entitled to seek such provisional or temporary injunctive relief as may be available from the Court to compel specific performance of, or restrain any party from violating, any of such provisions. In connection with any request for temporary or permanent injunctive relief permitted under this Agreement, each Party hereby waives the claim or defense that a remedy at law alone is adequate and agrees, to the maximum extent permitted by Law, to have Section 4.2, Section 4.5(b), Section 4.6, Section 4.7, Section 4.8, Section 4.9, Section 4.10, Section 4.12, Section 4.13, Section 4.14, Section 4.15(a)(vi), Section 4.22(b), Section 4.22(c), Section 4.29(a) or the obligations of such Party to consummate the Transactions in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement specifically enforced against it, without the necessity of posting bond or other security against it, and consents to the entry of temporary or permanent injunctive relief against it enjoining or restraining any breach or threatened breach of such provisions of this Agreement. In connection with any Dispute subject to this Section 8.2(d):

(i) The Parties agree that to the extent that a Party seeks injunctive relief hereunder in accordance with Section 8.2(d), such Dispute shall be resolved exclusively by the Court. Each of the Parties (i) consents, and shall cause its respective Affiliates to consent, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court in connection with any Dispute that is subject to this Section 8.2(d), (ii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from the Court in respect thereof and (iii) agrees that it will not bring any action for injunctive relief subject to this Section 8.2(d) in any court or arbitral forum other than the Court.

(II) EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY BEFORE THE COURT. THE PARTIES HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE WAIVER OF ANY JURY TRIAL WITH RESPECT TO THE MATTERS DESCRIBED HEREIN IS A KNOWING, VOLUNTARY AND BARGAINED-FOR AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES AND THAT ANY ACTION WHATSOEVER BETWEEN THEM THAT IS PERMITTED UNDER THIS SECTION 8.2(D) SHALL INSTEAD BE TRIED IN THE COURT BY A JUDGE SITTING WITHOUT A JURY.

8.3 Delays and Omissions. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any Party under this Agreement upon any breach or default of the other Party under this Agreement (other than as provided for in Section 7.7), shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such non-breaching or non-defaulting party nor shall it be construed to be a waiver by such Party of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring; nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default previously or thereafter occurring. All remedies, either under this Agreement or by Law or otherwise afforded to any party, shall be cumulative and not alternative.

8.4 Amendments. No provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed waived, amended, supplemented or modified by any Party, unless such waiver, amendment, supplement or modification is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the Party against whom such waiver, amendment, supplement or modification it is sought to be enforced.

-108-
