(b) by either Party, by giving written notice of such termination to the other Party, if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before the 275^th calendar day after the date of this Agreement (the “Outside Date”); provided that the right to terminate this Agreement under this clause b shall not be available to any Party whose failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement has been the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur on or before the Outside Date;

(d) by either Party upon a material breach by the other Party which would prevent the Closing, which breach has not been cured within twenty (20) calendar days after written notice thereof has been provided to such other Party; provided that there shall be no right to terminate if such breach was caused, in whole or in part, by a material breach of this Agreement by the Party seeking to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this clause d; or

(e) by the Purchaser, if the condition set forth in Section 3.1(a) with respect to Section 4.5 shall have become incapable of fulfillment and is not cured within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof has been provided by Seller to the Purchaser provided that there shall be no right to terminate if such breach was caused, in whole or in part, by a material breach of this Agreement by the Purchaser.

Section 7.2 Effect of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated as permitted under Section 7.1, such termination shall be without Liability to either Party or its respective Affiliates, and following such termination neither Party shall have any Liability under this Agreement or relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided that (i) except as provided below, no such termination shall relieve any Party from any representation or warranty for the circumstance that has caused the termination, and neither shall it relieve any Party that has breached any provision of this Agreement from Liability for such breach, (ii) except as provided below, any such breaching Party shall remain fully liable for any and all Losses incurred or suffered by the other Party as a result of such breach and (iii) no Party shall be liable for any change in Applicable Law after the date of this Agreement, provided that such Party shall have used its reasonable best efforts to remove the effects of such Applicable Law and such Party shall have complied with its obligations under Section 6.2.

ARTICLE VIII

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 8.1 Survival of Representations and Warranties and Covenants. The representations, warranties and covenants of the Parties contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing for the applicable period set forth in this Section 8.1 (each, a “Survival Period”), and any and all claims and causes of action for indemnification under this Article VIII arising out of the inaccuracy or breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of a Party must be made prior to the termination of the applicable Survival Period. The Parties agree that all of the representations, warranties and covenants of the Parties contained in this Agreement and any and all claims and causes of action for indemnification under this Article VIII related thereto shall survive until the third anniversary of the Closing; provided, however, that the representation and warranty in Section 4.5 shall survive until the eighth anniversary of the Closing, unless, in the case of covenants or agreements, a specified survival period is otherwise set forth in this Agreement (in which case such specified date will control) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any obligations to indemnify, defend and hold harmless pursuant to Section 8.2 shall not terminate with respect to any item as to which the Indemnified Party (as defined below) shall have, before the expiration of the applicable Survival Period, previously made a claim by delivering a notice of such claim (stating in reasonable detail the basis of such claim) to the Indemnifying Party (as defined below) in accordance with Section 8.3.

Section 8.2 Obligation to Indemnify.

(a) If the Closing occurs, Seller agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Purchaser and its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, successors, permitted assigns, agents and representatives (in each case, collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnitees”) from and against all Losses resulting from (i) any breach of any of the representations and warranties contained in Article IV and (ii) any breach of any of the covenants or other agreements of Seller contained in this Agreement.

(b) Purchaser agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller, and its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, successors, permitted assigns, agents and

representatives (collectively, the “Seller Indemnitees”), from and against all Losses resulting from (i) any breach of any of the representations and warranties contained in Article V, (ii) any breach of any of the covenants and agreements of Purchaser contained in this Agreement, (iii) Purchaser’s failure to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement despite satisfaction of the conditions to Purchaser’s obligations set forth in Section 3.1 hereof, (iv) any Losses attributable to the conduct of the business of GETRAG Corp. or its Affiliates, or any of their respective operations or acts or omissions, whether occurring prior to or following the Closing or (v) any Losses attributable to or arising in connection with the ownership agreements or organizational documents of GPG or GETRAG Hi-Tech Gears (India) Private Limited.

(c) Upon making any indemnification payment under this Article VIII, the Indemnifying Party will, to the extent of such payment, be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party against any third party Person in respect of the Loss to which the payment relates; provided, however, that until the Indemnified Party recovers full payment of its Loss, any and all claims of the Indemnifying Party against any such third party Person on account of said payment are hereby made expressly subordinated and subjected in right of payment to the Indemnified Party’s rights against such third party. Without limiting the generality of any other provision hereof, each such Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party shall duly execute upon request all instruments reasonably necessary to evidence and perfect the above-described subrogation and subordination rights.

(d) Neither Seller nor Purchaser shall have any right to set off any Losses under this Article VIII against any payments to be made by such Party or Parties pursuant to this Agreement or any other agreement among the Parties or their respective Affiliates.

(e) No Party shall be liable for any change in Applicable Law after the date of this Agreement provided that such Party shall have complied with its obligations under Section 6.1 and 6.2 hereof.

(f) The provisions of this Section 8.2 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by each of the Purchaser Indemnitees or Seller Indemnitees, as applicable, and each such Person’s heirs, representatives, successors or permitted assigns, it being expressly agreed that such Persons shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 8.2.

(g) Except as provided in Section 8.2(b)(iii), the indemnification provisions of this Article VIII shall not be enforceable until the Closing has occurred.

Section 8.3 Claims Notice. In the event that either a Purchaser Indemnitee or a Seller Indemnitee wishes to assert a claim for indemnification hereunder, such Party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) shall deliver written notice (a “Claims Notice”) to the other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) no later than twenty (20) Business Days after the Indemnified Party becoming aware of the claim, specifying in reasonable detail (to the extent known) the facts constituting the basis for, and the amount (if known) of, the claim asserted. Failure to deliver a Claims Notice with respect to a claim in a timely manner as specified in the preceding sentence shall not be deemed a waiver of the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification hereunder for Losses in connection with such claim except to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually and materially prejudiced as a result of such failure.

Section 8.4 Right to Contest Claims of Third Parties.

(a) The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, upon written notice to the Indemnified Party within twenty (20) Business Days following receipt of notice thereof, to investigate, contest, assume the defense of or settle any claim or demand made, or any action, Proceeding or investigation instituted, by any Person not a party to this Agreement (a “Third Party Claimant”) that may result in a Loss with respect to which the Indemnified Party would be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article VIII (a “Third Party Claim”); provided that the Indemnified Party may, at its option and at its own expense, participate in the investigation, contesting, defense or settlement of any such Third Party Claim through representatives and counsel of its own choosing; and, provided further, that the Indemnifying Party shall not settle any Third Party Claim unless (i) such settlement is on exclusively monetary terms and the Indemnifying Party shall pay or cause to be paid all amounts arising out of such settlement either concurrently or with the effectiveness thereof, (ii)such settlement includes a complete and irrevocable general release executed by all Persons who brought such Third Party Claim, which release shall release the Indemnified Party from any Liability, or (iii) the Indemnified Party shall have consented in writing to the terms of such settlement, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the fees and expenses of counsel employed by the Indemnified Party for any period during which the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense thereof and for any period during which the interests of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party may conflict, giving rise to the right of the Indemnified Party to employ counsel of its own choosing. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party shall have assumed the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall not settle, compromise or pay any Third Party Claim for which it seeks indemnification hereunder without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party.

(b) The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in (but not to control) the defense of any Third Party Claim which it has not elected to assume the defense of with its own counsel and at its own expense.

(c) Purchaser and Seller shall make mutually available to each other all relevant information in their possession relating to any Third Party Claim (except to the extent that such action would result in a loss of attorney client privilege) and shall cooperate with each other in the defense thereof.

Section 8.5 Indemnification Payments. Any payment under Article VIII shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes and shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account or accounts as the Indemnified Party shall designate to the Indemnifying Party in writing.

Section 8.6 Exclusivity. In the absence of fraud, following the Closing, the indemnities provided for in Article VIII shall be the exclusive remedies of the Parties and their respective officers, directors, employees, Affiliates, agents, representatives, successors and assigns for any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement, or any breach of any of the covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement. To the extent permissible by Applicable Law, any additional rights and remedies of the Purchaser with respect to any impairment of the Share are excluded. Any rights of the

Purchaser (i) to reimbursement of Losses resulting from the breach of pre-contractual duties, or (ii) to avoidance of this agreement because of the lack of substantial qualities shall also be excluded.

Section 8.7 Enforcement by Third Parties. The provisions of this Article VIII are (i) intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by each Seller Indemnitee and Purchaser Indemnitee and the heirs and representatives of such Seller Indemnitee or Purchaser Indemnitee, as applicable, it being expressly agreed that such Persons shall be third party beneficiaries of this Article VIII, and (ii) in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other right to indemnification or contribution that any such Person has by contract or otherwise (including pursuant to the terms hereof).

This Agreement may be amended, superseded, canceled, renewed or extended, and the terms hereof may be waived, only by a written instrument signed by each of the Parties or, in the case of a waiver, by the Party waiving compliance, provided that, in the event that Applicable Law provides for stricter requirements as to form, the Parties will observe such legal requirements.
