Section 2.7. Transfers Not Effected On or Prior to the Effective Time; Transfers Deemed Effective as of the Effective Time.

(a) To the extent that any Transfers or assumptions contemplated by this ARTICLE II shall not have been consummated on or prior to the Effective Time, the Parties shall cooperate to effect such Transfers or assumptions as promptly following the Effective Time as shall be practicable. Nothing herein shall be deemed to require the Transfer of any Assets or the assumption of any Liabilities which by their terms or operation of Law cannot be Transferred or assumed; provided, however, that the Parties shall, and shall cause the respective members of their Groups to, cooperate and use commercially reasonable efforts to seek to obtain any necessary Consents or Governmental Approvals for the Transfer of all Assets and assumption of all Liabilities contemplated to be Transferred or assumed pursuant to this ARTICLE II. In the event that any such Transfer or assumption of Assets or Liabilities has not been consummated from and after the Effective Time (i) the Party (or relevant member in its Group) retaining such Asset shall thereafter hold (or shall cause such member in its Group to hold) such Asset for the use and benefit of the Party (or relevant member in its Group) entitled thereto (at the expense of the Person entitled thereto) and (ii) the Party intended to assume such Liability shall, or shall cause the applicable member of its Group to, pay or reimburse the Party (or the relevant member of its Group) retaining such Liability for all amounts paid or incurred in connection with the retention of such Liability. In addition, the Party retaining such Asset or Liability (or relevant member of its Group) shall (or shall cause such member in its Group to) treat, insofar as reasonably possible and to the extent permitted by applicable Law, such Asset or Liability in the

ordinary course of business in accordance with past practice and take such other actions as may be reasonably requested by the Party to which such Asset or Liability is to be transferred or assumed in order to place such Party, insofar as reasonably possible, in the same position as if such Asset or Liability had been transferred or assumed as contemplated hereby and so that all the benefits and burdens relating to such Asset or Liability, including possession, use, risk of loss, potential for gain, and dominion, control and command over such Asset or Liability, are to inure from and after the Effective Time to the relevant member of the ASD Group or the WABCO Group, as the case may be, entitled to the receipt of such Asset or Liability. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Parties agree that, as of the Effective Time, each Party shall be deemed to have acquired complete and sole beneficial ownership over all of the Assets, together with all rights, powers and privileges incident thereto, and shall be deemed to have assumed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement all of the Liabilities, and all duties, obligations and responsibilities incident thereto, which such Party is entitled to acquire or required to assume pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(b) If and when the Consents, Governmental Approvals and/or conditions, the absence or non-satisfaction of which caused the deferral of transfer of any Asset or assumption of any Liability pursuant to Section 2.7(a), are obtained or satisfied, the transfer, assignment or novation of the applicable Asset or Liability shall be effected in accordance with and subject to the terms of this Agreement and/or the applicable Ancillary Agreement as promptly as practicable after the receipt of such Consents, Governmental Approvals and/or absence or satisfaction of conditions.

(c) The Party (or relevant member of its Group) retaining any Asset or Liability due to the deferral of the transfer or assignment of such Asset or the deferral of the assumption of such Liability pursuant to Section 2.7(a) shall (i) not be obligated, in connection with the foregoing, to expend any money unless the necessary funds are advanced, or agreed in advance to be reimbursed by the Party (or relevant member of its Group) entitled to such Asset, other than reasonable attorneys’ fees and recording or similar fees, all of which shall be promptly reimbursed by the Party entitled to such Asset (or relevant member of its Group) and (ii) be indemnified for all Indemnifiable Losses arising out of any actions (or omissions to act) of such retaining Party taken at the direction of the other Party (or relevant member of its Group) in connection with and relating to such retained Asset or Liability, as the case may be.

(d) Until the earlier of (i) receipt of audit opinions with respect to each Party’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008 or (ii) the two year anniversary of this Agreement, if either Party determines that it (or any member of its Group) owns any Asset that was allocated by the terms of this Agreement to be Transferred to the other Party at the Effective Time or that is agreed by such Party and the other Party in their good faith judgment to be an Asset that more properly belongs to the other Party or an Asset that such other Party or Subsidiary was intended to have the right to continue to use, then the Party owning such Asset shall as applicable (i) Transfer any such Asset to the Party (or relevant member of its Group) identified as the appropriate transferee and following such Transfer, such Asset shall be a VCS Asset or Remainco Asset, as the case may be, or (ii) grant such mutually agreeable rights with respect to such Asset to permit such continued use, subject to, and consistent with this Agreement, including with respect to assumption of associated Liabilities. In connection with such transfer, contribution, assignment, distribution or conveyance, the receiving party shall assume all Liabilities related to such asset.

(e) After the Effective Time, each Party (or any member of its Group) may receive mail, telegrams, packages and other communications properly belonging to the other Party (or any member of its Group). Accordingly, at all times after the Effective Time, each Party authorizes the other Party (or any member of its Group) to receive and open all mail, telegrams, packages and other communications received by such Party (or any member of its Group) and not unambiguously intended for such first Party, any member of such first Party’s Group or any of their respective officers, directors, employees or other agents, and to the extent that they do not relate to the business of the receiving Party, the receiving party shall promptly deliver such mail, telegrams, packages or other communications (or, in case the same relate to both businesses, copies thereof) to the other Party as provided for in Section 11.6. The provisions of this Section 2.7(e) are not intended to, and shall not, be deemed to constitute an authorization by any Party (or any member of its Group) to permit the other to accept service of process on its (or its members’) behalf and no Party (or any member of its Group) is or shall be deemed to be the agent of the other Party (or any member of its Group) for service of process purposes.

Section 2.8. Conveyancing and Assumption Instruments. In connection with, and in furtherance of, the Transfers of Assets and the acceptance and assumptions of Liabilities contemplated by this Agreement, the Parties shall execute or cause to be executed, on or prior to the Effective Time, or after the Effective Time with respect to Section 2.7, by the appropriate entities, the Conveyancing and Assumption Instruments necessary to evidence the valid and effective assumption by the applicable Party (or any member of its Group) of its assumed Liabilities, and the valid Transfer to the applicable Party (or any member of its Group) of all right, title and interest in and to its accepted Assets, including the transfer of real property with quit claim deeds, as may be appropriate.

Section 2.9. Shared Contracts With respect to Shared Contractual Liabilities pursuant to, under or relating to a given Shared Contract, such Shared Contractual Liabilities shall be allocated, unless otherwise allocated pursuant to this Agreement or an Ancillary Agreement, between the Parties as follows:

(i) first, if a Liability is incurred exclusively in respect of a benefit received by one Party or its Group, the Party or Group receiving such benefit shall be responsible for such Liability.

(ii) second, if a Liability cannot be exclusively allocated to one Party or its Group under clause (i) above, such Liability shall be allocated among both Parties and their respective Groups based on the relative proportions of total benefit received (over the term of the Shared Contract, measured as of the date of allocation) under the relevant Shared Contract. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party and its Group shall be responsible for any or all Liabilities arising out of or resulting from such Party’s or Group’s breach of the relevant Shared Contract.

(b) If ASD or any member of the ASD Group, on the one hand, or WABCO or any member of the WABCO Group, on the other hand, receives any benefit or payment under any Shared Contract which was intended for the other Party or its Group, ASD, on the one hand, or WABCO, on the other hand, will use its respective commercially reasonable efforts, or will cause any member of its Group to use its commercially reasonable efforts, to deliver, transfer or otherwise afford such benefit or payment to the other Party.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Parties have determined that it is advisable that certain Shared Contracts, or portions thereof, will be separated or assigned to a member of the ASD Group or WABCO Group, as applicable. The Parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to separate the Shared Contracts which are identified on Schedule 2.9(c)(i) into separate Contracts between the appropriate third party and either WABCO or a member of the WABCO Group or ASD or a member of the ASD Group. ASD or a member of the ASD Group will use commercially reasonable efforts to assign the rights and obligations, but only to the extent relating to the VCS Business, under the Shared Contracts which are identified on Schedule 2.9(c)(ii) to WABCO or a member of the WABCO Group. The Parties agree to cooperate and provide reasonable assistance prior to the Effective Time and for a period of six (6) months following the Effective Time (with no obligation on the part of either Party to pay any costs or fees with respect to such assistance) in effecting the separation or assignment of such Shared Contracts as described above.

(a) In addition to and without limiting the actions specifically provided for elsewhere in this Agreement, including Section 2.7, each of the Parties shall cooperate with each other and use (and will cause the relevant member of its Group to use) commercially reasonable efforts, prior to, on and after the Effective Time, to take, or to cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or to cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary on its part under applicable Law or contractual obligations to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements.

(b) Without limiting the foregoing, each Party shall cooperate with the other Party, from and after the Effective Time, to execute and deliver, or use 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 and/or Governmental Approvals, 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 Ancillary Agreements, in order to effectuate the provisions and purposes of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and the Transfers of the applicable Assets and the assignment and assumption of the applicable Liabilities and the other transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. Without limiting the foregoing, each Party will, at the reasonable request, of the other Party, take such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to vest in such other Party good and marketable title to the Assets allocated to such Party under this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements, free and clear of any Security Interest, if and to the extent it is practicable to do so.

(a) Each Party, at the request of the other Party, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any Consent, release, substitution or amendment required to novate or assign all obligations under Contracts, licenses and other obligations or Liabilities for which a member of such Party’s Group and a member of the other Party’s Group are jointly or severally liable and that do not constitute Liabilities of such other Party as provided in this Agreement (such other Party, the “Other Party”), or to obtain in writing the unconditional release of all parties to such arrangements (other than any member of the Group who assumed or retained such Liability as set forth in this Agreement), so that, in any such case, the members of the applicable Group will be solely responsible for such Liabilities; provided, however, that no Party shall be obligated to pay any consideration therefor to any third party from whom any such Consent, substitution or amendment is requested (unless such Party is fully reimbursed by the requesting Party).

(b) If the Parties are unable to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any such required Consent, release, substitution or amendment, the Other Party or a member of such Other Party’s Group shall continue to be bound by such Contract, license or other obligation that does not constitute a Liability of such Other Party and, unless not permitted by Law or the terms thereof, as agent or subcontractor for such Party, the Party or member of such Party’s Group who assumed or retained such Liability as set forth in this Agreement (the “Liable Party”) shall, or shall cause a member of its Group to, pay, perform and discharge fully all the obligations or other Liabilities of such Other Party or member of such Other Party’s Group thereunder from and after the Effective Time; provided, however, that the Other Party shall not be obligated to extend, renew or otherwise cause such Contract, license or other obligation to remain in effect beyond the term in effect as of the Effective Time. The Liable Party shall indemnify each Other Party and the members of such Other Party’s Group and hold each of them harmless against any and all Liabilities arising in connection therewith; provided, that the Liable Party shall have no obligation to indemnify the Other Party or any member of such Other Party’s Group with respect to any matter to the extent that such Other Party has engaged in any knowing violation of Law or fraud in connection therewith. The Other Party shall, without further consideration, promptly pay and remit, or cause to be promptly paid or remitted, to the Liable Party or to another member of the Liable Party’s Group, all money, rights and other consideration received by it or any member of its Group in respect of such performance by the Liable Party (unless any such consideration is an Asset of such Other Party pursuant to this Agreement). If and when any such Consent, release, substitution or amendment shall be obtained or such agreement, lease, license or other rights or obligations shall otherwise become assignable or able to be novated, the Other Party shall promptly assign, or cause to be assigned, all rights, obligations and other Liabilities thereunder of any member of such Other Party’s Group to the Liable Party or to another member of the Liable Party’s Group without payment of any further consideration and the Liable Party, or another member of such Liable Party’s Group, without the payment of any further consideration, shall assume such rights and obligations and other Liabilities.

(a) ASD shall (with the commercially reasonable cooperation of WABCO and the other members of the WABCO Group) use its commercially reasonable efforts, if so

requested by WABCO, to have any member of the WABCO Group removed as guarantor of, or obligor for, any Remainco Liability, including with respect to those guarantees and obligations listed or described on Schedule 2.12(a), to the extent that they relate to Remainco Liabilities.

(b) WABCO shall (with the commercially reasonable cooperation of ASD and the other members of the ASD Group) use its commercially reasonable efforts, if so requested by ASD, to have any member of the ASD Group removed as guarantor of, or obligor for, any VCS Liability, including with respect to those guarantees listed or described on Schedule 2.12(b), to the extent that they relate to the VCS Liabilities (each of the releases referred to in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this subsection, a “Guaranty Release“).

(c) If ASD or WABCO is unable to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any removal of any guarantee or other obligation as set forth in clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 2.12, (i) the relevant beneficiary shall indemnify and hold harmless the guarantor or obligor for any Indemnifiable Loss arising from or relating thereto (in accordance with the provisions of Article VI) and shall or shall cause one of its Subsidiaries, as agent or subcontractor for such guarantor or obligor to pay, perform and discharge fully all the obligations or other Liabilities of such guarantor or obligor thereunder, (ii) the relevant beneficiary shall pay to the guarantor or obligor a fee payable at the end of each calendar quarter based on a rate of 0.65% per annum on the average outstanding amount of the obligation underlying such guarantee or obligation during such quarter and (iii) each of ASD and WABCO shall not renew or extend the term of, increase its obligations under, or transfer to a third party, any loan, guarantee, lease, contract or other obligation for which the other Party is or may be liable unless all obligations of such other Party and the other members of such Party’s Group with respect thereto are thereupon terminated by documentation reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to such other Party; provided, however, with respect to leases, in the event a Guaranty Release is not obtained and such first Party wishes to extend the term of such guaranteed lease then such first Party shall have the option of extending the term if it provides such security as is reasonably satisfactory to the guarantor under such guaranteed lease.

(d) ASD and WABCO shall cooperate and WABCO shall use commercially reasonable efforts to replace all letters of credit issued by ASD or other members of the ASD Group on behalf of or in favor of any member of the WABCO Group or the VCS Business (the “ASD LCs”) as promptly as practicable with letters of credit from WABCO or a member of the WABCO Group as of the Effective Time. With respect to any ASD LCs that remain outstanding after the Effective Time, WABCO shall (i) indemnify and hold harmless ASD Indemnitees for any damages arising from or relating to such letters of credit, including, without limitation, any fees in connection with the issuance and maintenance thereof, (ii) pay to ASD a fee payable at the end of each calendar quarter based on a rate of 0.65% per annum on the average outstanding balance during such quarter of any outstanding ASD LCs and (iii) without the prior written consent of ASD, WABCO shall not, and shall not permit any member of the WABCO Group to, enter into, renew or extend the term of, increase its obligations under, or transfer to a third party, any loan, lease, Contract or other obligation in connection with which ASD or any member of the ASD Group has issued any letters of credit which remain outstanding. The parties hereto agree that neither ASD nor any member of the ASD Group will have any obligation to renew any letters of credit issued on behalf of or in favor of any member of the WABCO Group or the VCS Business after the expiration of any such letter of credit.

EACH OF ASD (ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND EACH OTHER MEMBER OF THE ASD GROUP), AND WABCO (ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND EACH OTHER MEMBER OF THE WABCO GROUP) UNDERSTANDS AND AGREES THAT, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN OR IN ANY ANCILLARY AGREEMENT, NO PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY ANCILLARY AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER AGREEMENT OR DOCUMENT CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, IS REPRESENTING OR WARRANTING IN ANY WAY AS TO THE ASSETS, BUSINESSES OR LIABILITIES CONTRIBUTED, TRANSFERRED, DISTRIBUTED, OR ASSUMED AS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, AS TO ANY CONSENTS OR GOVERNMENTAL APPROVALS REQUIRED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH, AS TO THE VALUE OR FREEDOM FROM ANY SECURITY INTERESTS OF, OR ANY OTHER MATTER CONCERNING, ANY ASSETS OF SUCH PARTY, OR AS TO THE ABSENCE OF ANY DEFENSES OR RIGHT OF SETOFF OR FREEDOM FROM COUNTERCLAIM WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTION OR OTHER ASSET, INCLUDING ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, OF ANY PARTY, OR AS TO THE LEGAL SUFFICIENCY OF ANY CONTRIBUTION, DISTRIBUTION, ASSIGNMENT, DOCUMENT, CERTIFICATE OR INSTRUMENT DELIVERED HEREUNDER TO CONVEY TITLE TO ANY ASSET OR THING OF VALUE UPON THE EXECUTION, DELIVERY AND FILING HEREOF OR THEREOF.

ALL WARRANTIES OF HABITABILITY, MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND ALL OTHER WARRANTIES ARISING UNDER THE UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE (OR SIMILAR FOREIGN LAWS), ARE HEREBY DISCLAIMED.

Section 3.1. ASD Reorganization. The Parties agree to take, or cause the members of their respective Groups to take, prior to the Distribution, all actions necessary, subject to the terms of this Agreement, to effectuate the Reorganization (such documentation necessary to effect the Reorganization, the “Reorganization Documents”) as set forth on Schedule 3.1, and as updated from time to time.

Section 3.2. Certificate of Incorporation; Bylaws; Rights Plan. On or prior to the Effective Time, all necessary actions shall be taken to adopt the form of amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated by-laws and the form of Rights Agreement filed by WABCO with the Commission as exhibits to the Form 10.

Section 3.3. Directors. On or prior to the Effective Time, ASD shall take all necessary action to cause the Board of Directors of WABCO to consist of the individuals identified in the Form 10 (including the Information Statement) at the time declared effective as directors of WABCO.

(a) Subject to Section 3.4(b), on or prior to the Effective Time, (i) ASD shall cause all its employees and any employees of its Affiliates who will not become a WABCO Employee immediately following the Effective Time to resign, effective as of the Effective Time, from all positions as officers or directors of any member of the WABCO Group in which they serve, and (ii) WABCO shall cause all WABCO Employees to resign, effective as of the Effective Time, from all positions as officers or directors of any member of the ASD Group in which they serve.

(b) No Person shall be required by any Party to resign from any position or office with another Party if such Person is disclosed in the Information Statement as the Person who is to hold such position or office following the Distribution.

Section 3.5. Ancillary Agreements. On or prior to the Effective Time, ASD and WABCO shall enter into, and/or (where applicable) shall cause a member or members of their respective Groups to enter into, the Ancillary Agreements.

Section 4.1. Stock Dividend to ASD; Distribution. Prior to the Distribution Date, WABCO shall issue to ASD as a stock dividend such number of shares of WABCO Common Stock (or ASD and WABCO shall take or cause to be taken such other appropriate actions to ensure that ASD has the requisite number of shares of WABCO Common Stock) as may be requested by ASD after consultation with WABCO in order to effect the Distribution, which shares as of the date of issuance shall represent (together with such shares previously held by

ASD) all of the issued and outstanding shares of WABCO Common Stock. Subject to conditions and other terms in this ARTICLE IV, ASD will cause the Agent on the Distribution Date to distribute all of the outstanding shares of WABCO Common Stock then owned by ASD to holders of ASD Common Stock on the Record Date, and to credit the appropriate class and number of such shares of WABCO Common Stock to book entry accounts for each such holder or designated transferee or transferees of such holder of WABCO Common Stock. For stockholders of ASD who own ASD Common Stock through a broker or other nominee, their shares of WABCO Common Stock will be credited to their respective accounts by such broker or nominee. Subject to conditions and other terms in this ARTICLE IV, each holder of ASD Common Stock on the Record Date (or such holder’s designated transferee or transferees) will be entitled to receive in the Distribution one (1) share of WABCO Common Stock (which includes a related preferred stock purchase right) for every three (3) shares of ASD Common Stock held by such stockholder. No action by any such stockholder shall be necessary for such stockholder (or such stockholder’s designated transferee or transferees) to receive the applicable number of shares of WABCO Common Stock (and, if applicable, cash in lieu of any fractional shares) such stockholder is entitled to in the Distribution.

Section 4.2. Fractional Shares. ASD stockholders who, after aggregating the number of shares of WABCO Common Stock (or fractions thereof) to which such stockholder would be entitled on the Record Date, would be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of WABCO Common Stock in the Distribution, will receive cash in lieu of fractional shares. Fractional shares of WABCO Common Stock will not be distributed in the Distribution nor credited to book-entry accounts. The Agent shall, as soon as practicable after the Distribution Date (a) determine the number of whole shares and fractional shares of WABCO Common Stock allocable to each other holder of record or beneficial owner of ASD Common Stock as of close of business on the Record Date, (b) aggregate all such fractional shares into whole shares and sell the whole shares obtained thereby in open market transactions at then prevailing trading prices on behalf of holders who would otherwise be entitled to fractional share interests, and (c) distribute to each such holder, or for the benefit of each such beneficial owner, such holder’s or owner’s ratable share of the net proceeds of such sale, based upon the average gross selling price per share of WABCO Common Stock after making appropriate deductions for any amount required to be withheld for United States federal income tax purposes. WABCO shall bear the cost of brokerage fees and transfer taxes incurred in connection with these sales of fractional shares, which such sales shall occur as soon after the Distribution Date as practicable and as determined by the Agent. None of ASD, WABCO or the applicable Agent will guarantee any minimum sale price for the fractional shares of WABCO Common Stock. Neither ASD nor WABCO will pay any interest on the proceeds from the sale of fractional shares. The Agent will have the sole discretion to select the broker-dealers through which to sell the aggregated fractional shares and to determine when, how and at what price to sell such shares. Neither the Agent nor the selected broker-dealers will be Affiliates of ASD or WABCO.

(a) WABCO shall file such amendments and supplements to the Form 10 as ASD may reasonably request, and such amendments as may be necessary in order to cause the same to become and remain effective as required by Law, including filing such amendments and supplements to the Form 10 and Information Statement as may be required by the Commission

or federal, state or foreign securities Laws. ASD shall mail to the holders of ASD Common Stock, at such time on or prior to the Distribution Date as ASD shall determine, the Information Statement included in the Form 10, as well as any other information concerning WABCO, WABCO’s business, operations and management, the Separation and such other matters as ASD shall reasonably determine are necessary and as may be required by Law.

(b) WABCO shall also prepare, file with the Commission and cause to become effective any registration statements or amendments thereof required to effect the establishment of, or amendments to, any employee benefit and other plans necessary or appropriate in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or any of the Ancillary Agreements, including any transactions related to financings or other credit facilities. Promptly after receiving a request from ASD, WABCO shall prepare and, in accordance with applicable Law, file with the Commission any such documentation that ASD determines is necessary or desirable to effectuate the Distribution, and ASD and WABCO shall each use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all necessary approvals from the Commission with respect thereto as soon as practicable.

(c) Promptly after receiving a request from ASD, WABCO shall prepare and file, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to have approved and made effective, an application for the original listing on the NYSE of the WABCO Common Stock to be distributed in the Distribution, subject to official notice of distribution.

(d) Nothing in this Section 4.3 shall be deemed, by itself, to create a Liability of ASD for any portion of the Form 10.

Section 4.4. Sole Discretion of ASD. ASD shall, in its sole and absolute discretion, determine the Distribution Date and all terms of the Distribution, including the form, structure and terms of any transactions to effect the Distribution and the timing of and conditions to the consummation thereof. In addition, ASD may, in accordance with Section 11.10, at any time prior to the Distribution Date and from time to time until the completion of the Distribution decide to abandon the Distribution or modify or change the terms of the Distribution, including by accelerating or delaying the timing of the consummation of all or part of the Distribution. None of WABCO, any other member of the WABCO Group, any WABCO Employee or any Third-Party shall have any right or claim to require the consummation of the Separation or the Distribution, each of which shall be effected at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors of ASD.

Section 4.5. Conditions to Distribution. Subject to Section 4.4, the following are conditions to the consummation of the Distribution. The conditions are for the sole benefit of ASD and shall not give rise to or create any duty on the part of ASD or the Board of Directors of ASD to waive or not waive any such condition.

(a) The Form 10 shall have been declared effective by the Commission, with no stop order in effect with respect thereto;

(b) The WABCO Common Stock to be delivered in the Distribution shall have been approved for listing on the NYSE, subject to official notice of distribution;

(e) All permits, registrations and consents required under the securities or blue sky Laws of states or other political subdivisions of the United States or of other foreign jurisdictions in connection with the Distribution shall have been obtained and be in full force and effect; and

(f) No order, injunction or decree issued by any Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction or other legal restraint or prohibition preventing the consummation of the Distribution or any of the transactions related thereto, including the Transfer of Assets and assumption of Liabilities pursuant to Article II hereof, shall be in effect.

Section 5.1. No Solicit. None of ASD or WABCO or any member of their respective Groups will from the Effective Time through and including the two year anniversary of the Effective Time, without the prior written consent of the other applicable Party, either directly or indirectly, on their own behalf or in the service or on behalf of others, solicit, aid, induce or encourage (i) in the case of ASD or any other member of the ASD Group, any employee at the level of grade 11 or higher, and in the case of WABCO or any other member of the WABCO Group, any employee at the level of grade 11 or higher and those employees listed on Schedule 5.1 or (ii) any employee working at a facility or location at which employees of the other Party or member of the other Party’s Group also work to leave his or her employment; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 5.1 shall be deemed to prohibit, any general solicitation for employment through advertisements and search firms not specifically directed at employees of such other applicable Party; provided, further, that the applicable Party has not encouraged or advised such firm to approach any such employee.

(a) Except as otherwise specifically provided in any Ancillary Agreement, as soon as reasonably practicable after the Distribution Date, but in any event within six (6) months thereafter, each Party shall cease (and shall cause all of the other members of its Group to cease): (i) making any use of any names or Trademarks that include (A) any of the Trademarks of the other Party or such other Party’s Affiliates (including, in the case of WABCO, “ASD” or “American Standard Companies Inc.” or any other name or Trademark containing the words “American Standard”, and in the case of ASD, “WBC” or “WABCO Holdings Inc.” or any other name or Trademark containing the words “WABCO”) and (B) any names or Trademarks related thereto including any names or Trademarks confusingly similar thereto or dilutive thereof (with respect to each Party, such Trademarks of the other Party or any of such other Party’s Affiliates, the “Other Party Marks”), and (ii) holding themselves out as having any affiliation with the other Party or such other Party’s Affiliates; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit any Party or any member of a Party’s Group from (1) making factual reference that it was formerly affiliated with ASD, (2) making use of any Other Party Mark in a manner that would constitute “fair use” under applicable Law if any unaffiliated third party made such use or would otherwise be legally permissible for any unaffiliated third party without the consent of the Party owning such Other Party Mark, and (3) making references in internal historical and tax records. In furtherance of the foregoing, as soon as practicable, but in no event later than six (6) months following the Distribution Date, each Party shall (and cause all of the other members of its Group to) remove, strike over or otherwise obliterate all Other Party Marks from all of such Party’s and its Affiliates’ assets and other materials, including any vehicles, business cards, schedules, stationery, packaging materials, displays, signs, promotional materials, manuals, forms, websites, email, computer software and other materials and systems; provided, however, that WABCO shall promptly after the Distribution Date post a disclaimer in a form and manner reasonably acceptable to ASD on the “www.wabco-auto.com” website informing its customers that as of the Effective Time and thereafter WABCO, and not ASD, is responsible for the operation of the VCS Business, including such website and any applicable services. Any use by any Party or

any of such Party’s Affiliates of any of the Other Party Marks as permitted in this Section 5.2 is subject to their compliance with all quality control standards and related requirements and guidelines in effect for the Other Party Marks as of the Effective Time. The Parties shall (and shall cause the other members of its Group to) not use the Other Party Marks as permitted in this Section 5.2 in a manner that is reasonably likely to reflect negatively on such names or marks, or on the other Party or its Affiliates.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing requirements of Section 5.2(a), if any Party or any member of such Party’s Group used commercially reasonable efforts to comply with Section 5.2(a) but is unable, due to regulatory or other circumstance beyond its control, to effect a legal name change in compliance with applicable Law such that an Other Party Mark remains in such Party’s or its Group member’s legal name, then such Party or its relevant Group member will not be deemed to be in breach hereof as long as it continues to use commercially reasonable efforts to effectuate such name change and does effectuate such name change within twelve (12) months after the Distribution Date, and, in such circumstances, such Party or Group member may continue to include in its assets and other materials references to the Other Party Mark that is in such Party’s or Group member’s legal name which includes references to “WABCO” or “American Standard” as applicable, but only to the extent necessary to identify such Party or Group member and only until such Party’s or Group member’s legal name can be changed to remove and eliminate such references.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing requirements of Section 5.2(a), WABCO shall not be required to change any name including the words “American Standard” in any third-party contract or license, or in property records with respect to real or personal property, if an effort to change the name is commercially unreasonable; provided, however, that (i) WABCO on a prospective basis from and after the Distribution Date shall change the name in any new or amended third-party contract or license or property record and (ii) WABCO shall not advertise or make public any continued use of the “American Standard” name permitted by this Section 5.2(c).

Section 5.3. Auditors and Audits; Annual and Quarterly Financial Statements and Accounting.

(a) Each Party agrees that during the period ending on March 31, 2009 with respect to paragraph (1) below and March 31, 2008 with respect to paragraph (2) (and with the consent of the other applicable Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, during any period of time after March 31, 2008 reasonably requested by such requesting Party so long as there is a reasonable business purpose for such request) and in any event solely with respect to the preparation and audit of each of the Party’s financial statements for any of the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, the printing, filing and public dissemination of such financial statements, the audit of each Party’s internal control over financial reporting related to such financial statements and such Party’s management’s assessment thereof, and each Party’s management’s assessment of such Party’s disclosure controls and procedures related to such financial statements:

(1) Annual Financial Statements. Each Party shall provide to the other Party on a timely basis all information reasonably required to meet its schedule for the preparation, printing,

filing, and public dissemination of its annual financial statements and for management’s assessment of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures and its internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Items 307 and 308, respectively, of Regulation S-K and, to the extent applicable to such Party, its auditor’s audit of its internal control over financial reporting and management’s assessment thereof in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the Commission’s and Public Company Accounting Oversight Board’s rules and auditing standards thereunder (such assessments and audit being referred to as the “Internal Control Audit and Management Assessments”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Party will provide all required financial and other Information with respect to itself and its Subsidiaries to its auditors in a sufficient and reasonable time and in sufficient detail to permit its auditors to take all steps and perform all reviews necessary to provide sufficient assistance to each other Party’s auditors with respect to information to be included or contained in such other Party’s annual financial statements and to permit such other Party’s auditors and management to complete the Internal Control Audit and Management Assessments, to the extent applicable to such Party.

(2) Access to Personnel and Records. Each audited Party shall authorize, and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause, its respective auditors to make available to the other Party’s auditors (each such other Party’s auditors, collectively, the “Other Parties’ Auditors”) both the personnel who performed or are performing the annual audits of such audited party (each such Party with respect to its own audit, the “Audited Party”) and work papers related to the annual audits of such Audited Party, in all cases within a reasonable time prior to such Audited Party’s auditors’ opinion date, so that the Other Parties’ Auditors are able to perform the procedures they consider necessary to take responsibility for the work of the Audited Party’s auditors as it relates to their auditors’ report on such other Party’s financial statements, all within sufficient time to enable such other Party to meet its timetable for the printing, filing and public dissemination of its annual financial statements. Each Party shall make available to the Other Parties’ Auditors and management its personnel and Records in a reasonable time prior to the Other Parties’ Auditors’ opinion date and other Parties’ management’s assessment date so that the Other Parties’ Auditors and other Parties’ management are able to perform the procedures they consider necessary to conduct the 2007 Internal Control Audit and Management Assessments.

(b) Amended Financial Reports. In the event a Party restates any of its financial statements that includes such Party’s audited or unaudited financial statements with respect to any balance sheet date or period of operation between January 1, 2002 and December 31, 2007, such Party will deliver to the other Party a substantially final draft, as soon as the same is prepared, of any report to be filed by such first Party with the Commission that includes such restated audited or unaudited financial statements (the “Amended Financial Reports”); provided, however, that such first Party may continue to revise its Amended Financial Report prior to its filing thereof with the Commission, which changes will be delivered to the other Party as soon as reasonably practicable; provided, further, however, that such first Party’s financial personnel will actively consult with the other Party’s financial personnel regarding any changes which such first Party may consider making to its Amended Financial Report and related disclosures prior to the anticipated filing of such report with the Commission, with particular focus on any changes which would have an effect upon the other Party’s financial statements or related disclosures. Each Party will reasonably cooperate with, and permit and make any necessary employees available to, the other Party, in connection with the other Party’s preparation of any Amended Financial Reports.

(c) Financials; Outside Auditors. If any Party or member of its respective Group is required, pursuant to Rule 3-09 of Regulation S-X or otherwise, to include in its Exchange Act filings audited financial statements or other information of the other Party or member of the other Party’s Group, the other Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts (i) to provide such audited financial statements or other information, and (ii) to cause its outside auditors to consent to the inclusion of such audited financial statements or other information in the Party’s Exchange Act filings.

(d) Third Party Agreements. Nothing in this Section 5.3 shall require any Party to violate any agreement with any third party regarding the confidentiality of confidential and proprietary information relating to that third party or its business; provided, however, that in the event that a Party is required under this Section 5.3 to disclose any such information, such Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to seek to obtain such third party’s consent to the disclosure of such information.

(a) In the event that ASD or any other member of the ASD Group, or any director or officer of ASD or any other member of the ASD Group, acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter that may be a corporate opportunity for both ASD or any other member of the ASD Group and WABCO or any other member of the WABCO Group, neither ASD nor any other member of the ASD Group, nor any director or officer of ASD or any other member of the ASD Group, shall have any duty to communicate or present such corporate opportunity to WABCO or any other member of the WABCO Group and shall not be liable to WABCO or any other member of the WABCO Group or to WABCO’s stockholders for breach of any fiduciary duty as a stockholder of WABCO or an officer or director thereof by reason of the fact that ASD or any other member of the ASD Group pursues or acquires such corporate opportunity for itself, directs such corporate opportunity to another person or entity, or does not present such corporate opportunity to WABCO or any other member of the WABCO Group.

(b) In the event that WABCO or any other member of the WABCO Group, or any director or officer of WABCO or any other member of the WABCO Group, acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter that may be a corporate opportunity for both ASD or any other member of the ASD Group and WABCO or any other member of the WABCO Group, neither WABCO nor any other member of the WABCO Group, nor any director or officer of WABCO or any other member of the WABCO Group, shall have any duty to communicate or present such corporate opportunity to ASD or any other member of the ASD Group and shall not be liable to ASD or any other member of the ASD Group or to ASD’s stockholders for breach of any fiduciary duty as a stockholder of ASD or an officer or director thereof by reason of the fact that WABCO or any other member of the WABCO Group pursues or acquires such corporate opportunity for itself, directs such corporate opportunity to another person or entity, or does not present such corporate opportunity to ASD or any other member of the ASD Group.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that any person who is a director or officer of ASD or any other member of the ASD Group is also a director or officer of WABCO or any other member of the WABCO Group, such person shall have no duty to communicate or present any corporate opportunity of which he or she acquires knowledge to WABCO or any other member of the WABCO Group and shall not be liable to WABCO or any other member of the WABCO Group or to WABCO’s stockholders for breach of any fiduciary duty as an officer or director of WABCO by reason of the fact that ASD or any other member of the ASD Group pursues or acquires such corporate opportunity, directs such corporate opportunity to another person or entity, or does not present such corporate opportunity to WABCO or any other member of the WABCO Group.

(d) For the purposes of this Section 5.4, “corporate opportunities” of WABCO or any other member of the WABCO Group shall include, but not be limited to, business opportunities that WABCO or any other member of the WABCO Group are financially able to undertake, that are, by their nature, in a line of business of WABCO or any other member of the WABCO Group, including the VCS Business, are of practical advantage to them and are ones in which WABCO or any other member of the WABCO Group have an interest or a reasonable expectancy, and in which, by embracing the opportunities, the self-interest of ASD or any other member of the ASD Group or any of their officers or directors will be brought into conflict with that of WABCO or any other member of the WABCO Group, and “corporate opportunities” of ASD or any other member of the ASD Group shall include, but not be limited to, business opportunities that ASD or any other member of the ASD Group are financially able to undertake, that are, by their nature, in a line of business of ASD or any other member of the ASD Group, including the Remainco Business, are of practical advantage to them and are ones in which ASD or any other member of the ASD Group have an interest or a reasonable expectancy, and in which, by embracing the opportunities, the self-interest of WABCO or any other member of the WABCO Group or any of their officers or directors will be brought into conflict with that of ASD or any other member of the ASD Group.

(a) Except (i) as provided in Section 6.1(b), (ii) as may be otherwise provided in any Ancillary Agreement and (iii) for any matter for which any Party is entitled to indemnification or contribution pursuant to this ARTICLE VI, each Party, for itself and each member of its respective Group, their respective Affiliates and all Persons who at any time prior to the Effective Time were directors, officers, agents or employees of any member of their respective Group (in each case, in their respective capacities as such), in each case, together with their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, do hereby remise, release and forever discharge the other Party and the other members of such other Parties’ Group, their respective Affiliates and all Persons who at any time prior to the Effective Time were shareholders, directors, officers, agents or employees of any member of such other Parties (in each case, in their respective capacities as such), in each case, together with their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, from any and all Liabilities whatsoever,

whether at Law or in equity (including any right of contribution), whether arising under any Contract, by operation of Law or otherwise, including for fraud, existing or arising from any acts or events occurring or failing to occur or alleged to have occurred or to have failed to occur or any conditions existing or alleged to have existed on or before the Effective Time, including in connection with all activities to implement the Distribution, the Separation and any of the other transactions contemplated hereunder and under any of the Ancillary Agreements.

(b) Nothing contained in Section 6.1(a) shall impair or otherwise affect any right of any Party, and as applicable, a member of the Party’s Group to enforce this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or any agreements, arrangements, commitments or understandings unrelated to the Separation and Distribution and explicitly contemplated in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement to continue in effect after the Effective Time. In addition, nothing contained in Section 6.1(a) shall release any person from:

(i) any Liability assumed, transferred by, or assigned or allocated to, a Party or a member of such Party’s Group pursuant to or contemplated by this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement including (A) with respect to ASD, any Remainco Liability and (B) with respect to WABCO, any VCS Liability;

(ii) any Liability provided in or resulting from any other Contract or understanding that is entered into after the Effective Time between one Party (and/or a member of such Party’s Group), on the one hand, and the other Party (and/or a member of such Party’s Group), on the other hand;

(iii) any Liability that the Parties may have with respect to indemnification or contribution pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise for claims brought against the Parties by a third-party, which Liability shall be governed by the provisions of this ARTICLE VI and, if applicable, the appropriate provisions of the Ancillary Agreements;

In addition, nothing contained in Section 6.1(a) shall release ASD from indemnifying any director, officer or employee of WABCO who was a director, officer or employee of ASD or any of its Affiliates on or prior to the Effective Time, to the extent such director, officer or employee is or becomes a named defendant in any Action with respect to which he or she was entitled to such indemnification pursuant to obligations existing prior to the Effective Time, it being understood that if the underlying obligation giving rise to such Action is a VCS Liability, WABCO shall indemnify ASD for such Liability (including ASD’s costs to indemnify the director, officer or employee) in accordance with the provisions set forth in this ARTICLE VI.

(c) Each Party shall not, and shall not permit any member of its Group to, make any claim or demand, or commence any Action asserting any claim or demand, including any claim of contribution or indemnification, against any other Party or any member of any other Party’s Group, or any other Person released pursuant to Section 6.1(a), with respect to any and all Liabilities released pursuant to Section 6.1(a).

(d) It is the intent of each Party, by virtue of the provisions of this Section 6.1, to provide for a full and complete release and discharge of all Liabilities existing or arising from all acts and events occurring or failing to occur or alleged to have occurred or to have failed to occur and all conditions existing or alleged to have existed on or before the Effective Time, whether known or unknown, between one Party (and/or a member of such Party’s Group) and the other Party (and/or a member of such other Party’s or parties’ Group) (including any contractual agreements or arrangements existing or alleged to exist between or among any such members on or before the Effective Time), except as specifically set forth in Section 6.1(a) and 6.1(b).

(e) If any Person associated with a Party (including any director, officer or employee of a Party) initiates an Action with respect to claims released by this Section 6.1, the Party with which such Person is associated shall indemnify the other Party against such Action in accordance with the provisions set forth in this ARTICLE VI.

(f) At any time, at the request of any other Party, each Party shall cause each member of its respective Group and to the extent practicable each other Person on whose behalf it released Liabilities pursuant to this Section 6.1 to execute and deliver releases reflecting the provisions hereof.

Section 6.2. Indemnification by ASD. Except as otherwise specifically set forth in any provision of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement or as set forth in Schedule 6.2, following the Effective Time, ASD shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the WABCO Indemnitees from and against any and all Indemnifiable Losses arising out of, by reason of or otherwise in connection with (i) the Remainco Liabilities or (ii) any breach by any member of the ASD Group of any provision of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, unless such Ancillary Agreement expressly provides for separate indemnification therein, in which case any such indemnification claims shall be made thereunder.

Section 6.3. Indemnification by WABCO. Except as otherwise specifically set forth in any provision of this Agreement or of any Ancillary Agreement, WABCO shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the ASD Indemnitees from and against any and all Indemnifiable Losses arising out of, by reason of or otherwise in connection with (i) the VCS Liabilities or (ii) any breach by WABCO or any member of the WABCO Group of any provision of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, unless such Ancillary Agreement expressly provides for separate indemnification therein, in which case any such indemnification claims shall be made thereunder; provided, however, that a claim for indemnification of any Indemnifiable Matter (as such term is defined in the Indemnification and Cooperation Agreement) may be made against WABCO hereunder but only after any such claim has not been satisfied pursuant to the provisions of the Indemnification and Cooperation Agreement and may include all Indemnifiable Losses in respect thereto, including attorney’s fees incurred in connection with ASD’s enforcement of its rights hereunder.

(a) An Indemnitee shall give the Indemnifying Party notice of any matter that an Indemnitee has determined has given or could give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement (other than a Third Party Claim which shall be governed by Section 6.4(b)), within ten (10) Business Days of such determination, stating the amount of the Loss claimed, if known, and method of computation thereof, and containing a reference to the provisions of this Agreement in respect of which such right of indemnification is claimed by such Indemnitee or arises; provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations except and solely to the extent the Indemnifying

Party shall have been materially prejudiced as a result of such failure (except that the Indemnifying Party or Parties shall not be liable for any expenses incurred during the period in which the Indemnitee failed to give such notice).

(b) Third Party Claims. If a claim or demand is made against an ASD Indemnitee or a WABCO Indemnitee (each, an “Indemnitee”) by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a Party (a “Third Party Claim”) as to which such Indemnitee is or may be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, such Indemnitee shall notify the Party which is or may be required pursuant to this ARTICLE VI or pursuant to any Ancillary Agreement to make such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing, and in reasonable detail, of the Third Party Claim promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) after receipt by such Indemnitee of written notice of the Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the failure to provide notice of any such Third Party Claim pursuant to this sentence shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations except and solely to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been materially prejudiced as a result of such failure (except that the Indemnifying Party or Parties shall not be liable for any expenses incurred during the period in which the Indemnitee failed to give such notice). Thereafter, the Indemnitee shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party, promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) after the Indemnitee’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnitee relating to the Third Party Claim.

(c) Other than in the case of a Liability being managed by a Party in accordance with any Ancillary Agreement, an Indemnifying Party shall be entitled (but shall not be required) to assume, control the defense of, and settle any Third Party Claim, at such Indemnifying Party’s own cost and expense and by such Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, that is reasonably acceptable to the applicable Indemnitees, if it gives notice of its intention to do so to the applicable Indemnitees within thirty (30) days of the receipt of such notice from such Indemnitees. After notice from an Indemnifying Party to an Indemnitee of its election to assume the defense of a 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, at its own expense and, in any event, shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party all witnesses, pertinent Information, materials and information in such Indemnitee’s possession or under such Indemnitee’s control relating thereto as are reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party. In the event of a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the applicable Indemnitee(s), or in the event that any Third Party Claim seeks equitable relief which would restrict or limit the future conduct of the Indemnitee’s business or operations, such Indemnitee(s) shall be entitled to retain, at the Indemnifying Party’s Expense, separate counsel as required by the applicable rules of professional conduct and to participate in (but not control) the defense, compromise, or settlement of that portion of the Third Party Claim that seeks equitable relief with respect to the Indemnitee(s).

(d) 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 6.4(c), such Indemnitee may defend such Third Party Claim at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnitee is conducting the defense against any such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate with the Indemnitee in such defense and make available to

the Indemnitee all witnesses, pertinent Information, material and information in such Indemnifying Party’s possession or under such Indemnifying Party’s control relating thereto as are reasonably required by the Indemnitee.

(e) Unless the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, no Indemnitee may settle or compromise any Third Party Claim without the consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If an Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim within the time period specified in clause (c) above, it shall not be a defense to any obligation to pay any amount in respect of such Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party was not consulted in the defense thereof, that such Indemnifying Party’s views or opinions as to the conduct of such defense were not accepted or adopted, that such Indemnifying Party does not approve of the quality or manner of the defense thereof or that such Third Party Claim was incurred by reason of a settlement rather than by a judgment or other determination of liability.

(f) In the case of a Third Party Claim, no Indemnifying Party shall consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement of the Third Party Claim without the consent (not to be unreasonably withheld) of the Indemnitee if the effect thereof is to permit any injunction, declaratory judgment, other order or other nonmonetary relief to be entered, directly or indirectly, against any Indemnitee.

(g) Except as otherwise provided in Section 11.20, absent fraud or willful misconduct by an Indemnifying Party, the indemnification provisions of this ARTICLE VI shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of an Indemnitee for any monetary or compensatory damages or losses resulting from any breach of this Agreement (including with respect to monetary or compensatory damages or losses arising out of or relating to, as the case may be, any VCS Liability or Remainco Liability), and each Indemnitee expressly waives and relinquishes any and all rights, claims or remedies such Person may have with respect to the foregoing other than under this ARTICLE VI against any Indemnifying Party.

(h) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent any Ancillary Agreement or Schedule 6.2 provides procedures for indemnification that differ from the provisions set forth in this Section 6.4, the terms of the Ancillary Agreement or Schedule 6.2 will govern.

(i) Any Indemnitee that has made a claim for indemnification pursuant to this section 6.4 shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any Indemnifiable Losses in respect thereof.

Section 6.5. Indemnification Payments. Indemnification required by this ARTICLE VI shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or an Indemnifiable Loss or Liability incurred.

(a) The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this ARTICLE VI shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Indemnitee; and (ii) the knowledge by the Indemnitee of Liabilities for which it might be entitled to indemnification or contribution hereunder.

(b) The rights and obligations of each Party and their respective Indemnitees under this ARTICLE VI shall survive the sale or other transfer by any Party or its Affiliates of any Assets or businesses or the assignment by it of any and all Liabilities.

Section 7.1. Provision of Corporate Records. Other than in circumstances in which indemnification is sought pursuant to ARTICLE VI (in which event the provisions of such Article will govern) and without limiting the applicable provisions of ARTICLE VI, and subject to appropriate restrictions for classified, privileged or Confidential Information:

(a) After the Effective Time, upon the prior written request by WABCO for specific and identified Information which relates to (x) WABCO or the conduct of the VCS Business, as the case may be, up to the Effective Time, or (y) any Ancillary Agreement to which ASD and WABCO are parties, ASD shall provide, as soon as reasonably practicable following the receipt of such request, appropriate copies of such Information (or the originals thereof if the Party making the request has a reasonable need for such originals) in the possession or control of ASD or any of its Affiliates, but only to the extent such items so relate and are not already in the possession or control of the requesting Party.

(b) After the Effective Time, upon the prior written request by ASD for specific and identified Information which relates to (x) ASD or the conduct of the Remainco Business up to the Effective Time, or (y) any Ancillary Agreement to which WABCO and ASD are parties, WABCO shall provide, as soon as reasonably practicable following the receipt of such request, appropriate copies of such Information (or the originals thereof if the Party making the request has a reasonable need for such originals) in the possession or control of WABCO or any of its Affiliates, but only to the extent such items so relate and are not already in the possession or control of the requesting Party.

Section 7.2. Access to Information. Other than in circumstances in which indemnification is sought pursuant to ARTICLE VI (in which event the provisions of such Article will govern) and without limiting the applicable provisions of ARTICLE VI, from and after the Effective Time, each of ASD and WABCO shall afford to the other and its authorized accountants, counsel and other designated representatives reasonable access during normal business hours, subject to appropriate restrictions for classified, privileged or confidential information and to the requirements of any applicable state and/or federal regulation such as a Code of Conduct or Standard of Conduct, to the personnel, properties, and Information of such Party and its Subsidiaries insofar as such access is reasonably required by the other Party, and only for the duration such access is required, and relates to (x) such other Party or the conduct of its business prior to the Effective Time or (y) any Ancillary Agreement to which each of the Party requesting such access and the Party requested to grant such access are Parties. Nothing in this Section 7.2 shall require any Party to violate any agreement with any third party regarding

the confidentiality of confidential and proprietary information relating to that third party or its business; provided, however, that in the event that a Party is required to disclose any such information, such Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to seek to obtain such third party Consent to the disclosure of such information. Each of ASD and WABCO shall inform their respective officers, employees, agents, consultants, advisors, authorized accountants, counsel and other designated representatives who have or have access to the other Party’s Confidential Information of their obligation to hold such information confidential to the same extent as is applicable to the Parties.

Section 7.3. Witness Services. At all times from and after the Effective Time, each of ASD and WABCO shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to make available to the other, upon reasonable written request, its and its Subsidiaries’ officers, directors, employees and agents as witnesses to the extent that (i) such Persons may reasonably be required to testify in connection with the prosecution or defense of any Action in which the requesting Party may from time to time be involved (except for claims, demands or Actions between members of each Group) and (ii) there is no conflict in the Action between the requesting Party and the other Party except for the time and effort required in connection with the services of the officers, directors and employees and agents of the other Party.

(a) Notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, for a period of five (5) years from the Effective Time the Parties shall hold, and shall cause each of their respective Subsidiaries to hold, and shall each cause their respective officers, employees, agents, consultants and advisors to hold, in strict confidence, and not to disclose or release or use, for any ongoing or future commercial purpose, without the prior written consent of the other Party, any and all Confidential Information concerning any other Party; provided, that the Parties may disclose, or may permit disclosure of, Confidential Information (i) to their respective auditors, attorneys, financial advisors, bankers and other appropriate consultants and advisors who have a need to know such information for auditing and other non-commercial purposes and are informed of their obligation to hold such information confidential to the same extent as is applicable to the Parties and in respect of whose failure to comply with such obligations, the applicable Party will be responsible, (ii) if the Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries are required or compelled to disclose any such Confidential Information by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of Law or stock exchange rule, or (iii) as necessary in order to permit a Party to prepare and disclose its financial statements, or other required disclosures; provided, further, that each Party (and members of its Group as necessary) may use, or may permit use of, Confidential Information of the other Party in connection with such first Party performing its obligations, or exercising its rights, under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any demand or request for disclosure of Confidential Information is made pursuant to clause (ii) above, each Party, as applicable, shall promptly notify the other of the existence of such request or demand and shall provide the other a reasonable opportunity to seek an appropriate protective order or other remedy, which such Parties will cooperate in obtaining. In the event that such appropriate protective order or other remedy is not obtained, the Party whose Confidential Information is required to be disclosed shall or shall cause the other applicable Party or Parties to furnish, or cause to be furnished, only that portion of the Confidential Information that is legally required to be disclosed and shall take commercially reasonable steps to ensure that confidential treatment is accorded such information.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, (i) the Parties shall be deemed to have satisfied their obligations hereunder with respect to Confidential Information if they exercise the same degree of care (but no less than a reasonable degree of care) as they take to preserve confidentiality for their own similar information and (ii) confidentiality obligations provided for in any agreement between each Party or its Subsidiaries and their respective employees shall remain in full force and effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Confidential Information of any Party in the possession of and used by any other Party as of the Effective Time may continue to be used by such Party in possession of the Confidential Information in and only in the operation of the VCS Business or the Remainco Business, as the case may be; provided, such Confidential Information may be used only so long as the Confidential Information is maintained in confidence and not disclosed in violation of Section 7.4(a). Such continued right to use may not be transferred (directly or indirectly) to any third party without the prior written consent of the applicable Party, except pursuant to Section 11.9.

(c) Each Party acknowledges that it and the other members of its Group may have in their possession confidential or proprietary information of third parties that was received under confidentiality or non-disclosure agreements with such third party prior to the Effective Time. Such Party will hold, and will cause the other members of its Group and their respective representatives to hold, in strict confidence the confidential and proprietary information of third parties to which they or any other member of their respective Groups has access, in accordance with the terms of any agreements entered into prior to the Effective Time between one or more members of the such Party’s Group (whether acting through, on behalf of, or in connection with, the separated Businesses) and such third parties.

(d) Upon the written request of a Party, the other Party shall promptly, (i) deliver to such requesting Party all original Confidential Information (whether written or electronic) concerning such requesting Party and/or its Subsidiaries, and (ii) if specifically requested by such requesting Party, destroy any copies of such Confidential Information (including any extracts there from). Upon the written request of such requesting Party, the other Party shall cause one of its duly authorized officers to certify in writing to such requesting Party that the requirements of the preceding sentence have been satisfied in full.

(a) Pre-Separation Services. The Parties recognize that legal and other professional services that have been and will be provided prior to the Effective Time have been and will be rendered for the collective benefit of each of the members of the ASD Group and the WABCO Group, and that each of the members of the ASD Group and the WABCO Group should be deemed to be the client with respect to such pre-separation services for the purposes of asserting all privileges which may be asserted under applicable Law.

(b) Post-Separation Services. The Parties recognize that legal and other professional services will be provided following the Effective Time which will be rendered

solely for the benefit of ASD or WABCO or their successors or assigns, as the case may be. With respect to such post-separation services, the Parties agree as follows:

(i) ASD shall be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges in connection with privileged information which relates solely to the Remainco Business, whether or not the privileged information is in the possession of or under the control of ASD or WABCO. ASD shall also be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges in connection with privileged information that relates solely to the subject matter of any claims constituting Remainco Liabilities, now pending or which may be asserted in the future, in any lawsuits or other proceedings initiated against or by ASD, whether or not the privileged information is in the possession of or under the control of ASD or WABCO or their successors or assigns; and

(ii) WABCO shall be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges in connection with privileged information which relates solely to the VCS Business, whether or not the privileged information is in the possession of or under the control of ASD or WABCO or their successors or assigns. WABCO shall also be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges in connection with privileged information that relates solely to the subject matter of any claims constituting VCS Liabilities, now pending or which may be asserted in the future, in any lawsuits or other proceedings initiated against or by WABCO, whether or not the privileged information is in the possession of or under the control of ASD or WABCO or their successors or assigns.

(c) The Parties agree that they shall have a shared privilege, with equal right to assert or waive, subject to the restrictions in this Section 7.5, with respect to all privileges not allocated pursuant to the terms of Section 7.5(b). All privileges relating to any claims, proceedings, litigation, disputes, or other matters which involve both ASD and WABCO in respect of which both Parties retain any responsibility or Liability under this Agreement, shall be subject to a shared privilege among them.

(d) No Party may waive any privilege which could be asserted under any applicable Law, and in which any other Party has a shared privilege, without the consent of the other Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed or as provided in subsections (e) or (f) below. Consent shall be in writing, or shall be deemed to be granted unless written objection is made within twenty (20) days after notice upon the other Party requesting such consent.

(e) In the event of any litigation or dispute between or among any of the Parties, or any members of their respective Groups, either such Party may waive a privilege in which the other Party or member of such Group has a shared privilege, without obtaining the consent of the other Party; provided, that such waiver of a shared privilege shall be effective only as to the use of information with respect to the litigation or dispute between the relevant Parties and/or the applicable members of their respective Groups, and shall not operate as a waiver of the shared privilege with respect to third parties.

(f) If a dispute arises between or among the Parties or their respective Subsidiaries regarding whether a privilege should be waived to protect or advance the interest of any Party, each Party agrees that it shall negotiate in good faith, shall endeavor to minimize any prejudice to the rights of the other Parties, and shall not unreasonably withhold consent to any request for waiver by another Party. Each Party specifically agrees that it will not withhold consent to waiver for any purpose except to protect its own legitimate interests.

(g) Upon receipt by any Party or by any Subsidiary thereof of any subpoena, discovery or other request which arguably calls for the production or disclosure of information subject to a shared privilege or as to which another Party has the sole right hereunder to assert a privilege, or if any Party obtains knowledge that any of its or any of its Subsidiaries’ current or former directors, officers, agents or employees have received any subpoena, discovery or other requests which arguably calls for the production or disclosure of such privileged information, such Party shall promptly notify the other Party or Parties of the existence of the request and shall provide the other Party or Parties a reasonable opportunity to review the information and to assert any rights it or they may have under this Section 7.5 or otherwise to prevent the production or disclosure of such privileged information.

(h) The transfer of all Information pursuant to this Agreement is made in reliance on the agreement of ASD and WABCO as set forth in Section 7.4 and Section 7.5, to maintain the confidentiality of privileged information and to assert and maintain all applicable privileges. The access to information being granted pursuant to Section 7.1 and Section 7.2 hereof, the agreement to provide witnesses and individuals pursuant to Section 7.3 hereof, the furnishing of notices and documents and other cooperative efforts contemplated by Section 7.5 hereof, and the transfer of privileged information between and among the Parties and their respective Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of any privilege that has been or may be asserted under this Agreement or otherwise.

Section 7.6. Ownership of Information. Any information owned by one Party or any of its Subsidiaries that is provided to a requesting Party pursuant to this ARTICLE VII shall be deemed to remain the property of the providing Party. 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.

Section 7.7. Other Agreements. The rights and obligations granted under this ARTICLE VII are subject to any specific limitations, qualifications or additional provisions on the sharing, exchange or confidential treatment of information, or privileged matter with respect thereto, set forth in any Ancillary Agreement.

(a) In the event of a controversy, dispute or claim arising out of, in connection with, or in relation to the interpretation, performance, nonperformance, validity, termination or

breach of this Agreement or otherwise arising out of, or in any way related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, including any claim based on contract, tort, statute or constitution (but excluding any controversy, dispute or claim arising out of any Contract relating to the use or lease of real property if any third party is a necessary party to such controversy, dispute or claim) (collectively, “Agreement Disputes”), the general counsel or chief legal officer (as appropriate) of the relevant Parties (or such other executive officer designated by the relevant Party) shall negotiate for a reasonable period of time to settle such Agreement Dispute; provided, that (i) such reasonable period shall not, unless otherwise agreed by the relevant Parties in writing, exceed forty-five (45) days from the time of receipt by a Party of written notice of such Agreement Dispute (“Dispute Notice”) and (ii) the relevant employees from both Parties with knowledge and interest in the dispute shall first have tried to resolve the differences between the Parties. Within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Dispute Notice, the receiving Party shall submit to the other Party a written response. The Dispute Notice and the response shall each include a statement of the Party’s position, a general summary of the arguments supporting that position, the name and title of the executive who will represent the party and any other person(s) who will attend settlement meetings.

(b) In the event of any Agreement Dispute with respect to which a Dispute Notice has been delivered in accordance with this Section 8.1, and if arbitration proceedings are initiated pursuant to Section 8.2 within 180 days following receipt of the Dispute Notice, (i) the relevant Parties shall not assert the defenses of statute of limitations and laches with respect to the period beginning after the date of receipt of the Dispute Notice, and (ii) any contractual time period or deadline under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement to which such Agreement Dispute relates occurring after the Dispute Notice is received shall not be deemed to have passed until such Agreement Dispute has been resolved. Nothing said or disclosed, nor any document produced, in the course of any negotiations, conferences and discussions in connection with efforts to settle an Agreement Dispute that is not otherwise independently discoverable shall be offered or received as evidence or used for impeachment or for any other purpose in any arbitration, but shall be considered as to have been disclosed for settlement purposes.

Section 8.2. Arbitration. If the Agreement Dispute has not been resolved for any reason after thirty (30) days have elapsed from the receipt by a Party of a Dispute Notice, such Agreement Dispute shall be exclusively and finally determined, at the request of any relevant Party, by arbitration conducted where the Parties agree it would be most convenient, and in the absence of agreement in New York City, before and in accordance with the CPR Rules for Non-Administered Arbitration then currently in effect, except as modified herein (the “Rules”).

Section 8.3. Selection of Arbitrator(s). In the event that any Party’s claim or counterclaims equals or exceed $2 million, exclusive of interest or attorneys’ fees, the Agreement Dispute shall be heard and determined by three (3) arbitrators; otherwise, the Agreement Dispute shall be heard and determined by one (1) arbitrator. In the event that one arbitrator shall hear the Agreement Dispute, the Parties shall attempt to agree upon a qualified individual to serve as arbitrator. If the Parties are unable to agree on an arbitrator within 30 days of the receipt by respondent of a copy of the demand for arbitration, then the arbitrator shall be selected and appointed by the International Institute for Conflict Prevention & Resolution (“CPR”) in accordance with the listing and ranking method in the Rules, and in any such procedure, each party shall be given a limited number of strikes, excluding strikes for cause. In the event that

three arbitrators shall hear the Agreement Dispute, and if there are only two Parties to the arbitration, each Party shall appoint its arbitrator within twenty (20) days of receipt by respondent of a copy of the demand for arbitration. The two party-appointed arbitrators shall have twenty (20) days from the appointment of the second arbitrator to agree on a third arbitrator who shall chair the arbitral tribunal. Any arbitrator not timely appointed by the Parties shall be appointed by the CPR in accordance with the listing and ranking method in the Rules, and in any such procedure, each party shall be given a limited number of strikes, excluding strikes for cause. If any appointed arbitrator declines, resigns, becomes incapacitated, or otherwise refuses or fails to serve or to continue to serve as an arbitrator, the Party or arbitrators entitled to appoint such arbitrator shall promptly appoint a successor. In the event that an arbitrator is objected to, CPR shall decide whether such objection is valid and whether the challenged arbitrator shall be removed. Any controversy concerning the jurisdiction of the arbitrator(s), whether an Agreement Dispute is arbitrable, whether arbitration has been waived, whether an assignee of this Agreement is bound to arbitrate, or as to the interpretation of enforceability of this ARTICLE VIII shall be determined by the arbitrator(s).

Section 8.4. Arbitration Procedures. The arbitrator(s) shall attempt to resolve the disputed based on pleadings, sworn statements and other written materials without the need for live hearings. In the event the arbitrator(s) determine that oral argument is beneficial to the arbitrator(s) understanding of the issues, oral argument may be conducted. In the event the arbitrator(s) determine that live hearings are necessary for the proper resolution of the dispute, a hearing shall be conducted. Any oral argument to be conducted shall be held no later than 150 days following appointment of the arbitrator(s). Any hearing to be conducted shall be held no later than 180 days following appointment of the arbitrator(s).

Section 8.5. Discovery. The arbitrator(s), consistent with the expedited nature of arbitration, shall permit discovery only if there is clear and convincing evidence that discovery is necessary. If the arbitrator(s) so determine, they may permit limited document discovery and no more than three depositions per party of no more than 8 hours each. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party will, upon the written request of the other Party, promptly provide the other with copies of documents on which the producing Party may rely in support of a claim or defense or which are relevant to the issues raised in the Agreement Dispute. All discovery, if any, shall be completed within 90 days following the appointment of the arbitrator(s). Adherence to formal rules of evidence shall not be required and the arbitrator(s) shall consider any evidence and testimony that the arbitrator(s) determine to be relevant, in accordance with the Rules and procedures that the arbitrator(s) determine to be appropriate. In resolving any Agreement Dispute, the Parties intend that the arbitrator(s) shall apply the substantive Laws of the State of New York, without regard to any choice of law principles thereof that would mandate the application of the laws of another jurisdiction. The Parties intend that the provisions to arbitrate set forth herein be valid, enforceable and irrevocable, and any award rendered by the arbitrator(s) shall be final and binding on the Parties. The Parties agree to comply and cause the members of their applicable Group to comply with any award made in any such arbitration proceedings and agree to enforcement of or entry of judgment upon such award, in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Section 8.6. Confidentiality of Proceedings. Without limiting the provisions of the Rules, unless otherwise agreed in writing by or among the relevant Parties or permitted by this

Agreement, the relevant Parties shall keep, and shall cause the members of their applicable Group to keep, confidential all matters relating to the arbitration or the award. All negotiations, conferences and discussions pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations; provided, that such matters may be disclosed (i) to the extent reasonably necessary in any proceeding brought to enforce this agreement to arbitrate or any arbitral award or for entry of a judgment upon the award and (ii) to the extent otherwise required by Law or regulatory authority.

Section 8.7. Pre-Hearing Procedure and Disposition. Nothing contained herein is intended to or shall be construed to prevent any Party, from applying to any court of competent jurisdiction for interim measures or other provisional relief in connection with the subject matter of any Agreement Disputes, including to compel a party to arbitrate any Agreement Dispute or to require witnesses to obey subpoenas issued by the arbitrator(s). Without prejudice to such provisional remedies as may be available under the jurisdiction of a court, the arbitral tribunal shall have full authority to grant provisional remedies and to direct the parties to request that any court modify or vacate any temporary or preliminary relief issued by such court, and to award damages for the failure of any party to respect the arbitral tribunal’s orders to that effect. The Parties agree to accept and honor any orders relating to interim or provisional remedies that are issued by the arbitrator(s) and agree that any such interim order or remedy may be enforced, as necessary, in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Section 8.8. Continuity of Service and Performance. During the course of dispute resolution pursuant to the provisions of this ARTICLE VIII, the Parties will continue to provide all other services and honor all other commitments under this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement with respect to all matters not subject to such dispute resolution.

Section 8.9. Awards. The arbitrator(s) shall make an award and issue a reasoned opinion in writing setting forth the basis for such award within 30 days following the submission of all written materials in support of and in opposition to any claim, or if there is a hearing, within 30 days of such hearing. The arbitrator(s) shall be entitled, if appropriate, to award any remedy in such proceedings that is permitted under this Agreement and applicable law, including monetary damages, specific performance and other forms of legal and equitable relief. The Parties hereby waive any claim to exemplary, punitive, multiple or similar damages in excess of compensatory damages, attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses of arbitration, except as may be expressly required by statute or as necessary to indemnify a Party for a Third Party Claim and the arbitrator(s) are not empowered to and shall not award such damages. Any final award must provide that the party against whom an award is issued shall comply with the order within a specified period of time, not to exceed 30 days.

Section 8.10. Costs. If any Party attempts, unsuccessfully, to prevent an Arbitration Dispute from being arbitrated such Party shall reimburse the prevailing party for all costs incurred in compelling arbitration. Except as otherwise may be provided in any Ancillary Agreement, the costs of arbitration pursuant to this Article VIII shall be borne by the non-prevailing Party as determined by the arbitrator.

Section 8.11. Adherence to Time Limits. In accepting appointment, an arbitrator shall commit that his or her schedule permits him or her to devote the reasonably necessary time and

attention to the arbitration proceedings and to resolving the Agreement Dispute within the time periods set by this Agreement and by the Rules. Any time limits set out in this ARTICLE VIII or in the Rules may be modified upon written agreement of the parties and the arbitrator(s) or by order of the arbitrator(s) for good cause shown. Any failure of the arbitrator(s) to comply with such time limits or to render a final award within the time specified shall not impair the validity of the award or cause the award to be void or voidable, nor shall it be a basis for challenge of the validity or enforceability of the award or of the arbitration proceedings.

Section 8.12. Limitation on Actions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (a) no Action shall be commenced (including the dispute resolution procedures set forth in this Article VIII) by an Indemnitee against an Indemnifying Party or any of their respective Affiliates more than 12 months after the Indemnitee acquires, or reasonably should have acquired, knowledge of the facts giving rise to its right to indemnification under Article VI (it being understood that if no such Action is commenced within such 12-month period, the Indemnifying Party shall be discharged from liability for such claim); and (b) no Action shall be commenced (including the dispute resolution procedures set forth in this Article VIII) by a Party against the other Party asserting any claim arising from breach of any obligation of such other Party under this Agreement more than 12 months after such first Party acquires, or reasonably should have acquired, knowledge of such breach, provided, however, regardless of such first Party’s knowledge of the facts giving rise to its claim based on a breach of this Agreement, no Action shall be commenced by such first Party against the other Party more than 36 months after the occurrence of the initial event giving rise to such claim for such breach (it being understood that if no such Action is commenced within such 12-month or 36-month periods, as applicable, the breaching Party shall be discharged from liability for such breach).

Section 9.1. Policies and Allocation of Related Rights and Obligations. WABCO acknowledges and agrees on its own behalf, and on behalf of each other member of the WABCO Group, that (i) neither WABCO nor any other member of the WABCO Group has any rights to or under any Third Party Shared Policy, except as expressly provided in this ARTICLE IX and (ii) nothing in this ARTICLE IX shall be deemed to constitute (or to reflect) an assignment of any rights to or under any Third Party Shared Policy. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, all rights to or under insurance policies of any type or description in respect of any and all asbestos-related Liabilities shall be addressed in accordance with Schedule 6.2.

(a) With respect to Third Party Shared Policies of workers’ compensation, automobile liability, general/product liability, excess/umbrella liability, directors & officers, crime or fiduciary liability for claims that arise out of insured events with an occurrence date prior to the Effective Time, to the extent reasonably possible, ASD will, or will cause the applicable insurance companies or members of the ASD Group that are insured thereunder to (i) continue to provide WABCO and any other member of the WABCO Group with access to and coverage under the applicable Third Party Shared Policies, and (ii) reasonably cooperate with WABCO and take commercially reasonable actions as may be necessary or advisable to assist WABCO in submitting such claims under the applicable Third Party Shared Policies; provided, that WABCO

shall be responsible for any and all deductibles, self-insured retentions, retrospective premiums, claim-handling charges, co-payments or any other charge or fee legally due and owing relating to such claims and neither ASD nor the insurance company or member of the ASD Group shall be required to maintain such Third Party Shared Policies beyond their current terms. For the avoidance of doubt, if an occurrence date is after the Effective Time, then no payment for any damages, costs of defense, or other sums with respect to such claim shall be available to WABCO under such Third Party Shared Policies.

(b) With respect to all Third Party Shared Policies, WABCO agrees and covenants (on behalf of itself and each other member of the WABCO Group, and each other Affiliate of WABCO) not to make any claim or assert any rights against ASD and any other member of the ASD Group, or the unaffiliated third-party insurers of such Third Party Shared Policies, except as expressly provided under this Section 9.2.

(a) Administration. With respect to all Third Party Shared Policies, from and after the Effective Time, ASD or a member of the ASD Group shall be responsible for the Insurance Administration and Claims Administration of such Third Party Shared Policies; provided, that the retention of such administrative responsibilities by ASD or a member of the ASD Group is in no way intended to limit, inhibit or preclude any right to insurance coverage for any Insured Claim of a named insured under such Third Party Shared Policies as contemplated by the terms of this Agreement; provided further, that the retention of such administrative responsibilities by ASD or a member of the ASD Group shall not relieve the Person submitting any Insured Claim of the primary responsibility for reporting such Insured Claim accurately, completely and in a timely manner, or of such Person’s authority to settle any such Insured Claim within any period permitted or required by the relevant Third Party Shared Policy. At its discretion, and in accordance with the terms of the Third Party Shared Policies, ASD may discharge its administrative responsibilities with respect to such Third Party Shared Policies by contracting for the provision of administrative services to any unaffiliated Person, including, after the Effective Time, WABCO or any of its Affiliates. ASD will use its commericially reasonable efforts to notify the appropriate member of the WABCO Group of such discharge. WABCO shall reimburse ASD for any costs incurred by ASD related to Insurance Administration and Claims Administration to the extent such costs (which include defense, out-of-pocket expenses, and direct and indirect costs of employees or agents of ASD providing the administrative services) are (i) not covered under the Third Party Shared Policies and (ii) related to VCS Liabilities. ASD or any member of the ASD Group shall not settle any Insured Claim of WABCO or any member of WABCO Group under the Third Party Shared Policies without first obtaining the approval of WABCO or such member of WABCO Group. Such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

(b) Exceeding Policy Limits. Where VCS Liabilities are specifically covered under a Third Party Shared Policy for periods prior to the Effective Time, or where such Third Party Shared Policy covers claims made after the Effective Time with respect to an occurrence prior to the Effective Time, then from and after the Effective Time, WABCO may claim

coverage for Insured Claims under such Third Party Shared Policy as and to the extent that such insurance is available up to the full extent of the applicable limits of liability of such Third Party Shared Policy (and may receive any Insurance Proceeds with respect thereto as contemplated by Section 9.3(d)), subject to the terms of this Section 9.3. It is expressly understood that so long as ASD is an Affiliate of WABCO prior to the Effective Time, ASD may claim such coverage on behalf of WABCO, provided that ASD will use its commercially reasonable efforts to notify WABCO of such claim.

(c) Claims Not Reimbursed. Except as set forth in this Section 9.3, ASD and WABCO shall not be liable to one another (nor shall any member of the ASD Group be liable to any member of the WABCO Group) for claims, or portions of claims, not reimbursed by insurers under any Third Party Shared Policy for any reason not within the control of ASD or WABCO, including coinsurance provisions, deductibles, quota share deductibles, self-insured retentions, bankruptcy or insolvency of any insurance carrier(s), Third Party Shared Policy limitations or restrictions, any coverage disputes, any failure to timely file a claim by ASD or WABCO (or any of the members of their respective Groups), or any defect in such claim or its processing. The liability of ASD and WABCO to one another for such claims is expressly limited to the amount of Insurance Proceeds received with respect to such claims and allocated to the respective Parties in accordance with Section 9.4(e). It is expressly understood that the foregoing provisions in this Section 9.3(c) shall not limit any Party’s liability to any other Party for indemnification pursuant to ARTICLE VI.

(d) Allocation of Insurance Proceeds. Insurance Proceeds received with respect to claims, costs and expenses under the Third Party Shared Policies shall be paid to or on behalf of the insured under the relevant Third Party Shared Policy, which insured shall thereafter administer the Third Party Shared Policies by paying the Insurance Proceeds, as appropriate, to ASD with respect to Remainco Liabilities and WABCO with respect to VCS Liabilities. In the event that the aggregate limits on any Third Party Shared Policies are exceeded by the aggregate of outstanding Insured Claims by the Parties or members of their respective Groups, the Parties agree to allocate the Insurance Proceeds received thereunder based upon their respective percentage of the total of their bona fide claims which were covered under such Third Party Shared Policy, and any Party who has received Insurance Proceeds in excess of such Party’s respective percentage of Insurance Proceeds shall pay to the other Party the appropriate amount so that each Party will have received its respective percentage of Insurance Proceeds pursuant hereto. Each of the Parties agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to maximize available coverage under those Third Party Shared Policies applicable to it, and to take all commercially reasonable steps to recover from all other responsible parties in respect of an Insured Claim to the extent coverage limits under a Third Party Shared Policy have been exceeded or would be exceeded as a result of such Insured Claim.

(e) Allocation of Deductibles. In the event that the Parties or members of their respective Groups have bona fide claims under any Third Party Shared Policy arising from the same occurrence and for which a deductible is payable, the Parties agree that the aggregate amount of the deductible paid shall be borne by the Parties in the same proportion which the Insurance Proceeds received by each such Party bears to the total Insurance Proceeds received under the applicable Third Party Shared Policy pursuant to Section 9.3(d), and any Party who has paid more than such allocable share of the deductible shall be entitled to receive from the other Party an appropriate amount so that each Party has borne its allocable share of the deductible pursuant hereto.

Section 9.4. Agreement for Waiver of Conflict and Shared Defense. In the event that Insured Claims of more than one of the Parties exist relating to the same occurrence, the Parties shall jointly defend and waive any conflict of interest necessary to the conduct of the joint defense. Nothing in this ARTICLE IX shall be construed to limit or otherwise alter in any way the obligations of the Parties, including those created by this Agreement, by operation of Law or otherwise.

Section 9.5. Cooperation. The Parties agree to use (and cause the members in their respective Groups to use) their commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with respect to the various insurance matters contemplated by this ARTICLE IX.

Section 9.6. Miscellaneous. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to restrict WABCO or ASD, or any members of their respective Groups, from acquiring at its own expense any insurance Policy in respect of any Liabilities or covering any period. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, from and after the Effective Time, WABCO and ASD shall be responsible for obtaining and maintaining their respective insurance programs for their risk of loss and such insurance arrangements shall be separate programs apart from each other and each will be responsible for its own deductibles and retentions for such insurance programs. WABCO acknowledges and agrees on its own behalf, and on behalf of each member of the WABCO Group, that ASD has provided to WABCO prior to the Effective Time all information necessary for WABCO or the appropriate member of the WABCO Group to obtain such insurance policies and insurance programs necessary to cover any and all risk of loss related to the VCS Business.

Section 10.1. B&K Sale. The Parties hereto understand and acknowledge that ASD is conducting a process and exploring the possible sale of the B&K Business to one or more third parties whether by sale of stock, asset (direct or indirect) or merger, and whether the global B&K Business is sold to one or more third parties or whether the B&K Business is sold separately in regions to one or more third parties (a “B&K Sale”).

Section 10.2. Certain Parameters. The terms and provisions of any agreements that relate to a B&K Sale (each, a “B&K Sale Agreement”) may include provisions (including representations and warranties, covenants and indemnification) that could have an effect on WABCO following the Distribution and WABCO shall have no right to object to, and ASD shall be permitted to enter into any B&K Sale Agreement, containing such provisions. ASD will provide to WABCO, within ten (10) days after the execution of a B&K Sale Agreement, a copy of such agreement. ASD shall have the sole right to control the B&K Sale process and negotiate the terms of a B&K Sale.

Section 10.3. B&K Sale Proceeds. The cash proceeds from a B&K Sale received by ASD and/or any of its Subsidiaries at the closing of a B&K Sale (including any cash held by any

of ASD Subsidiaries that are engaged in the B&K Business, collectively, the “B&K Sale Proceeds“) shall be solely the right of ASD. Neither WABCO, nor any member of the WABCO Group or any other Person (other than ASD and the members of the ASD Group) shall have any rights to or other interest in the B&K Sale Proceeds.

Section 11.1. Complete Agreement; Construction. This Agreement, including the Exhibits and Schedules, and the Ancillary Agreements shall constitute the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall supersede all previous negotiations, commitments and writings with respect to such subject matter. In the event of any conflict between the terms and conditions of the body of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any Schedule, the terms and conditions of such Schedule shall control. In the event of any conflict between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any Ancillary Agreement, the terms and conditions of such Ancillary Agreement shall control.

Section 11.2. Ancillary Agreements. This Agreement is not intended to address, and should not be interpreted to address, the matters specifically and expressly covered by the Ancillary Agreements.

Section 11.3. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in more than one counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement, and, except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 1.3, shall become effective when one or more such counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to the other Parties. Execution of this Agreement or any other documents pursuant to this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic copy of a signature shall be deemed to be, and shall have the same effect as, executed by an original signature.

Section 11.4. Survival of Agreements. Except as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, all covenants and agreements of the Parties contained in this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement shall survive the Effective Time and remain in full force and effect in accordance with their applicable terms.

(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided (i) in this Agreement (including paragraphs (b) and (c) of this Section 11.5) or (ii) the Ancillary Agreements, the Parties agree that all out-of-pocket fees and expenses (including the costs to obtain Consents) incurred and directly related to the transactions contemplated hereby, including any Liability incurred following the Separation as a result of the consummation of the Separation, shall be borne and paid by the Person incurring such cost or Liability.

(b) Each of ASD and WABCO shall be responsible for payment of its respective outside advisors for all work performed, whether in connection with the Separation or otherwise, prior to, on or after the Effective Time, provided, however, that ASD shall pay all fees earned, and all costs and expenses incurred, prior to the Effective Time directly related to the Separation by the entities listed or described on Schedule 11.5(b) and payable to such entities.

(c) With respect to any expenses incurred pursuant to a request for further assurances granted under Section 2.10, the Parties agree that any and all fees and expenses incurred by either Party shall be borne and paid by the requesting Party; it being understood that no Party shall be obliged to incur any third-party accounting, consulting, advisor, banking or legal fees, costs or expenses, and the requesting Party shall not be obligated to pay such fees, costs or expenses, unless such fee, cost or expense shall have had the prior written approval of the requesting Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party shall be responsible for paying its own internal fees, costs and expenses (e.g., salaries of personnel). With respect to any fees, costs and expenses incurred by either Party in satisfying its obligations under Section 5.3, the requesting Party shall be responsible for the other Party’s fees, costs and expenses.

Section 11.6. Notices. All notices, requests, claims, demands and other communications under this Agreement and, to the extent applicable and unless otherwise provided therein, under each of the Ancillary Agreements, as between the Parties, shall be in writing and shall be given or made (and shall be deemed to have been duly given or made upon receipt unless the day of receipt is not a Business Day, in which case it shall be deemed to have been duly given or made on the next Business Day) by delivery in person, by overnight courier service, by facsimile with receipt confirmed (followed by delivery of an original via overnight courier service) or by registered or certified mail (postage prepaid, return receipt requested) to the respective Parties at the following addresses (or at such other address for a Party as shall be specified in a notice given in accordance with this Section 11.6):

Section 11.7. Waivers. The failure of any Party to require strict performance by any other Party of any provision in this Agreement will not waive or diminish that Party’s right to demand strict performance thereafter of that or any other provision hereof.

Section 11.8. Amendments. Subject to the terms of Section 11.10, this Agreement may not be modified or amended except by an agreement in writing signed by each of the Parties.

Section 11.9. Assignment. The provisions of this Agreement and the obligations and rights hereunder shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by (and against) the Parties and their respective successors and permitted transferees and assigns. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement shall not be assignable, in whole or in part, by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Party, and any attempt to assign any rights or obligations arising under this Agreement without such consent shall be null and void; provided, that (i) a Party may assign this Agreement in connection with a merger transaction in which such Party is not the surviving entity or the sale by such Party of all or substantially all of its Assets, and upon the effectiveness of such assignment the assigning Party shall be released from all of its obligations under this Agreement if the surviving entity of such merger or the transferee of such Assets shall agree in writing, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the other Party, to be bound by the terms of this Agreement as if named as a “Party” hereto and (ii) ASD may assign all or a portion of its rights hereunder to indemnification to one or more buyers of the B&K Business.

Section 11.10. Termination, Etc. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Agreement (including ARTICLE VI (Indemnification) hereof) may be terminated and the Distribution may be amended, modified or abandoned at any time prior to the Effective Time by and in the sole discretion of ASD without the approval of WABCO or the stockholders of ASD. In the event of such termination, no Party shall have any Liability to any other Party or any other Person. After the Effective Time, this Agreement may not be terminated except by an agreement in writing signed by each of the Parties.

(a) Except as expressly provided to the contrary in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement, any amount to be paid or reimbursed by any Party (and/or a member of such Party’s Group), on the one hand, to any other Party (and/or a member of such Party’s Group), on the other hand, under this Agreement shall be paid or reimbursed hereunder within five (5) Business Days after presentation of an invoice or a written demand therefor and setting forth, or accompanied by, reasonable documentation or other reasonable explanation supporting such amount.

(b) Except as expressly provided to the contrary in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement, any amount not paid when due pursuant to this Agreement shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the then effective Prime Rate plus 2% (or the maximum legal rate, whichever is lower), calculated for the actual number of days elapsed, accrued from the date on which such payment was due up to the date of the actual receipt of payment.

Section 11.12. No Circumvention. The Parties agree not to directly or indirectly take any actions, act in concert with any Person who takes an action, or cause or allow any member of any such Party’s Group to take any actions (including the failure to take a reasonable action) such that the resulting effect is to materially undermine the effectiveness of any of the provisions of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (including adversely affecting the rights or ability of any Party to successfully pursue indemnification, contribution or payment pursuant to ARTICLE VI).

Section 11.13. Subsidiaries. Each of the Parties shall cause (or with respect to an Affiliate that is not a Subsidiary, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause) to be performed all actions, agreements and obligations set forth herein to be performed by any Subsidiary or Affiliate of such Party or by any entity that becomes a Subsidiary or Affiliate of such Party on and after the Effective Time.

Section 11.14. Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as provided in ARTICLE VI relating to Indemnitees and for the release under Section 6.1 of any Person provided therein and except as specifically provided in any Ancillary Agreement, this Agreement is solely for the benefit of the Parties and should not be deemed to confer upon third parties any remedy, claim, liability, reimbursement, cause of action or other right in excess of those existing without reference to this Agreement.

Section 11.15. Title and Headings. Titles and headings to Sections and Articles are inserted for the convenience of reference only and are not intended to be a part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 11.16. Exhibits and Schedules. The Exhibits and Schedules attached hereto are incorporated herein by reference and shall be construed with and as an integral part of this Agreement to the same extent as if the same had been set forth verbatim herein.

Section 11.17. Closing. The closing and consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to occur prior to or at the Distribution shall take place at the offices of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP, Four Times Square, New York, New York.

Section 11.18. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal Laws, and not the Laws governing conflicts of Laws (other than Sections 5-1401 and 5-1402 of the New York General Obligations Law), of the State of New York.

Section 11.19. Consent to Jurisdiction. Subject to the provisions of ARTICLE VIII, each of the Parties irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of (a) the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County, and (b) the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “New York Courts”), for the purposes of any suit, action or other proceeding to compel arbitration or for provisional relief in aid of arbitration in accordance with ARTICLE VIII or for provisional relief to prevent irreparable harm, and to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the New York Courts for the enforcement of any award issued thereunder. Each of the Parties further agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by United States registered mail to such Party’s respective address set forth in Section 11.6 shall be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding in the New York Courts with respect to any matters to which it has submitted to jurisdiction in this Section 11.19. Each of the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in the New York Courts, and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

Section 11.20. Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms.

Section 11.21. Waiver of Jury Trial. SUBJECT TO ARTICLE VIII AND SECTIONS 11.19 AND 11.20 HEREIN, EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY COURT PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF AND PERMITTED UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF THE OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 11.21.

Section 11.22. Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, and the Parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions, the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

Section 11.23. Construction. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. This Agreement shall be construed without regard to any presumption or rule requiring construction or interpretation against the party drafting or causing any instrument to be drafted.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have caused this Separation and Distribution Agreement to be duly executed as of the day and year first above written.
