Exhibit 10.1

COOPERATION AGREEMENT

This Cooperation Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of March 1, 2019 by and among Autoliv, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and Cevian Capital II GP Limited, a limited company incorporated under the laws of the Bailiwick of Jersey (“Investor”) (the Company and Investor, each a “Party” to this Agreement, and collectively, the “Parties”).

RECITALS

WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, Investor beneficially owns shares of common stock of the Company (the “Company Common Stock”) totaling, in the aggregate, 8,376,924 shares (the “Shares”), or approximately nine and six-tenths percent (9.6%), of the Company Common Stock issued and outstanding on the date hereof; and

WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, the Company and Investor have determined to come to an agreement with respect to the nomination for election of Min Liu (the “Investor Director”) to the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) and certain other matters, as provided in this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

1.    Nomination of Director and Related Agreements.

(a)    Nomination of Director. The Company shall take all necessary actions to nominate the Investor Director for election to the Board by the stockholders at the Company’s 2019 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2019 Annual Meeting”).

(i)    If at any time prior to the 2019 Annual Meeting Investor’s aggregate ownership of Company Common Stock decreases to less than eight percent (8.0%) of the then-outstanding Company Common Stock (other than as the result of a share issuance or similar Company action that increases the number of outstanding shares of Company Common Stock (other than ordinary course compensatory equity issuances to management), in which event the eight percent (8.0%) threshold shall be correspondingly reduced to give effect to such share issuance), then this Agreement shall be null and void ab initio and there shall be no obligation on the Company to nominate the Investor Director for election to the Board.

(ii)    If the Investor Director is unable or unwilling to serve as a director for any reason, resigns as a director or is removed as a director prior to the expiration of the Standstill Period (as defined herein), and at such time Investor has aggregate ownership of at least eight percent (8.0%) of the then-outstanding Company Common Stock (the “Minimum Ownership Threshold”) (other than as the result of a share issuance or similar Company action that increases the number of outstanding shares of Company Common Stock (other than ordinary course compensatory equity issuances to management), in which event the Minimum Ownership Threshold shall be correspondingly reduced to give effect to such share issuance), Investor shall have the ability to recommend a substitute director in accordance with this Section 1(a)(ii) (any such replacement nominee shall be referred to as the “Investor Replacement Director”). Any Investor Replacement Director recommended by Investor shall be required to (i) qualify as “independent” pursuant to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and the listing standards of any exchange on which the securities of the Company are listed and (ii) satisfy the guidelines and policies with respect to service on the Board applicable to all non-management directors. The Board,

after taking into account the relevant financial and business experience of the proposed Investor Replacement Director, shall promptly (and in no case later than ten (10) business days) make the determination whether the Investor Replacement Director is approved to be appointed to the Board, in each case, as reasonably determined by the Board. In the event the Board does not nominate such Investor Replacement Director for election at the 2019 Annual Meeting, or after the 2019 Annual Meeting, appoint such Investor Replacement Director to the Board, Investor shall have the right to recommend additional substitute person(s) until an Investor Replacement Director stands for election at the 2019 Annual Meeting, or after the 2019 Annual Meeting, is appointed to the Board, subject to this Section 1(a)(ii). Any Investor Replacement Director appointed to the Board in accordance with this Section 1(a)(ii) will be legally bound by the terms and conditions applicable to the Investor Director under this Agreement. Following the appointment of any Investor Replacement Director to replace the Investor Director in accordance with this Section 1(a)(ii), any reference to the Investor Director herein shall be deemed to include such replacement director. If at any time Investor’s aggregate beneficial ownership (as determined under Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act (as defined herein)) of Company Common Stock decreases to less than the Minimum Ownership Threshold, the right of Investor pursuant to this Section 1(a)(ii) to participate in the recommendation of an Investor Replacement Director to nominate a substitute Investor Director prior to the 2019 Annual Meeting or fill the vacancy caused by the resignation or removal of the Investor Director or any Investor Replacement Director following the 2019 Annual Meeting shall automatically terminate. Prior to the nomination or appointment of any Investor Replacement Director to the Board, (i) Investor will deliver to the Company an irrevocable resignation letter pursuant to which the Investor Replacement Director shall offer to resign from the Board and all applicable committees and subcommittees thereof if, at any time after the 2019 Annual Meeting, Investor’s aggregate beneficial ownership (as determined under Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act), of Company Common Stock decreases to less than the Minimum Ownership Threshold, such irrevocable resignation not to be effective until the Board shall have accepted such resignation, which acceptance shall be made within the sole and absolute discretion of the Board, and (ii) the Investor Replacement Director will submit to the Board the information, documentation and acknowledgements set forth in Section 1(b)(iv) of this Agreement.

(iii)    The Company shall include the Investor Director on its slate of directors to be elected to the Board at the 2019 Annual Meeting and at each meeting of stockholders subsequent to the 2019 Annual Meeting held for the purposes of electing directors during the Standstill Period at which the Investor Director’s term expires and shall use its reasonable best efforts (which shall include the solicitation of proxies) to cause the election of the Investor Director at the 2019 Annual Meeting (it being understood that such efforts shall not be less than the efforts used by the Company to cause the election of any other non-management director nominee nominated by the Company) and at each subsequent meeting of stockholders held for the purposes of electing directors during the Standstill Period at which the Investor Director’s term expires. Notwithstanding this Section 1(a)(iii), the Company may determine not to include the Investor Director on its slate of directors to be elected to the Company Board at any annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders at which the Investor Director’s term expires, in which case, this Agreement shall terminate upon written notice (which notice must be delivered no later than thirty (30) days prior to the deadline for the submission of the nomination notice for such annual meeting of stockholders) to Investor of such determination not to nominate the Investor Director for election to the Board.

(b)    Additional Agreements.

(i)    Investor agrees that it will cause its controlled Affiliates and Associates, including but not limited to Cevian Capital AB (Stockholm), Cevian Capital AG (Zürich) and Cevian Capital LLP (UK), to comply with the terms of this Agreement and shall be responsible for any breach of this Agreement by any such controlled Affiliate or Associate. As used in this Agreement, the terms “Affiliate” and “Associate” shall have

the respective meanings set forth in Rule 12b-2 promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the rules or regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Exchange Act”) and shall include all persons or entities that at any time during the term of this Agreement become Affiliates or Associates of any person or entity referred to in this Agreement.

(ii)    In connection with any annual or special meeting of the stockholders of the Company (and any adjournments or postponements thereof) held during the Standstill Period (as defined herein), Investor will cause to be present for quorum purposes and vote or cause to be voted all shares of Company Common Stock beneficially owned (as determined under Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) by Investor of any of its Affiliates, and entitled to vote as of the record date for any such meeting, (A) in favor of the slate of directors recommended by the Board and (B) otherwise in accordance with the Board’s recommendation on any proposal not related to an Extraordinary Transaction (as defined herein, with the reference “at least fifteen percent (15%)” replaced with “any” in such definition for the purposes of this clause); provided that, if Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. recommends a vote different than the Board’s recommendation on a proposal other than the election of directors, then Investor can vote in its sole discretion as it wishes on such proposal.

(iii)    Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Investor has delivered to the Company an irrevocable resignation letter pursuant to which the Investor Director has agreed to offer her resignation from the Board and all applicable committees and subcommittees thereof if, at any time after the 2019 Annual Meeting, Investor’s aggregate beneficial ownership (as determined under Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act), of Company Common Stock decreases to less than the Minimum Ownership Threshold. The Investor Director’s irrevocable resignation shall not be effective until the Board shall have accepted such resignation, which acceptance shall be made within the sole and absolute discretion of the Board.

(iv)    Prior to the date of this Agreement, the Investor Director has submitted to the Company (A) a fully completed copy of the Company’s director & officer questionnaire and other reasonable and customary director onboarding documentation required by the Company of non-management directors in connection with the appointment or election of new Board members, (B) the information required pursuant to Section 6 of Article II of the Company’s Third Restated By-Laws (the “By-Laws”), (C) a written acknowledgment that the Investor Director agrees to be bound by all current policies, codes and guidelines applicable to directors of the Company, including, without limitation, the Company’s trading policy, code of conduct and ethics for directors, corporate governance guidelines, and related person transaction policy, and (D) a written acknowledgment that the Investor Director (or Investor Replacement Director, as applicable) agrees to maintain the confidentiality of Confidential Information (as hereinafter defined) and use Confidential Information only for the purpose of her service as a director of the Company and in accordance with her fiduciary duties as a director of the Company under applicable law; provided that Investor Director may share Confidential Information with Investor to the extent permitted by United States and Swedish securities laws and the listing standards of any exchange on which the securities of the Company are listed.

(v)    Investor agrees that the Board or any committee or subcommittees thereof, in the exercise of its fiduciary duties, may recuse the Investor Director from the portion of any Board or committee or subcommittee meeting at which the Board or any such committee or subcommittee is evaluating and/or taking action with respect to (i) Investor’s ownership of Company Common Stock, (ii) the exercise of any of the Company’s rights or enforcement of any of the obligations under this Agreement, (iii) any action taken in response to actions taken by Investor or its Affiliates with respect to the Company or (iv) any transaction with Investor or its Affiliates.

2.    Standstill Provisions.

(a)    Investor agrees that from the date the Investor Director is elected or appointed to the Board until thirty (30) days following the time that Investor Director no longer serves as a director on the Board (the “Standstill Period”), neither it nor any of its Affiliates or Associates under its control or direction will, and it will cause each of its Affiliates and Associates under its control not to, directly or indirectly, in any manner, alone or in concert with others:

(i)    acquire, or offer, seek or agree to acquire, by purchase or otherwise, or direct others in the acquisition of, any securities issued by the Company or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Company Common Stock (or any rights decoupled from the underlying securities) or assets of the Company, or rights or options to acquire any securities issued by the Company or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Company Common Stock (or rights decoupled from the underlying securities) or assets of the Company, or engage in any swap or hedging transactions or other derivative agreements of any nature with respect to securities issued by the Company or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Company Common Stock (or rights decoupled from the underlying securities) that are settled by delivery of Company Common Stock or assets of the Company, in case of each of the foregoing, only if such action would result in Investor, together with its Affiliates and Associates, having an aggregate beneficial ownership (as determined under Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act but treating all shares underlying options or synthetic derivatives as outstanding whether or not then exercisable) of nineteen and nine-tenths percent (19.9%) or more of the then-outstanding Company Common Stock immediately following the consummation of such transaction; provided that nothing herein will require Company Common Stock to be sold to the extent that Investor exceeds the ownership limit under this clause (i) as the result of a share repurchase or similar Company action that reduces the number of outstanding shares of Company Common Stock;

(ii)    engage in any short sale or any purchase, sale or grant of any option, warrant, convertible security, stock appreciation right, or other similar right (including any put or call option or “swap” transaction with respect to any security (other than a broad-based market basket or index)) or enter into a derivative or other agreement, arrangement or understanding that hedges or transfers, in whole or in part any securities that includes, relates to or derives any significant part of its value from a decline in the market price or value of any securities of the Company (or any rights decoupled from the underlying securities);

(vii)    knowingly make any recommendations or knowingly seek to advise, encourage, support or influence any person with respect to the voting or disposition of any securities of the Company at any annual or special meeting of stockholders, except in accordance with Section 1(b)(ii) of this Agreement, or seek to do so;

(viii)    form or join in a partnership, limited partnership, syndicate or other group, including, without limitation, a group as defined under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, with respect to any Company Common Stock; provided, however, that nothing herein shall limit the ability of an Affiliate of Investor to join the “group” following the execution of this Agreement, so long as any such Affiliate is bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement;

(ix)    deposit any Company Common Stock in any voting trust or subject any Company Common Stock to any arrangement or agreement with respect to the voting of any Company Common Stock, other than any such voting trust, arrangement or agreement solely among the Affiliates or Associates of Investor and otherwise in accordance with this Agreement, provided that any such Affiliate or Associate is bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement;

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the restrictions in this Section 2(a) shall terminate automatically upon the earliest of (i) the fifth (5th) business day after written notice is delivered by Investor to the Company of a material breach of this Agreement by the Company (including, without limitation, a failure to nominate or appoint the Investor Director or, as applicable, an Investor Replacement Director, in accordance with Section 1 of this Agreement or a breach of applicable non-disparagement obligations under Section 11 of this Agreement) if such breach has not been cured within such notice period, provided that Investor is not in material breach of this Agreement at the time such notice is given, (ii) the announcement by the Company of a definitive agreement with respect to any Extraordinary Transaction that would result in the acquisition by any person or group of more than 50% of the then-outstanding shares of Company Common Stock or (iii) the commencement of any tender or exchange offer (by a person other than Investor, its Affiliates or Associates) which, if consummated, would constitute an Extraordinary Transaction that would result in the acquisition by any person or group of more than 50% of the then-outstanding shares of Company Common Stock, where the Company files a Schedule 14D-9 (or any amendment thereto), other than a “stop, look and listen” communication by the Company pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act, that does not recommend that the Company’s stockholders reject such tender or exchange offer.

(b)    Subject to complying with its obligations under Sections 1(b)(iv), 2(a), 11 and 12 of this Agreement, Investor may engage in any private discussions in the ordinary course of its business with third parties so long as such private communications would not be reasonably determined to trigger public disclosure obligations for any such party.

(c)    The restrictions in this Section 2 shall not prevent Investor or any of its Affiliates from making any factual statement as required by applicable legal process, subpoena, or legal requirement from any governmental authority with competent jurisdiction over the party from whom information is sought (so long as such request did not arise as a result of discretionary acts by Investor or any of its Affiliates).

(a)    Investor hereby agrees that if it receives any non-public information entrusted to or obtained by Investor Director by reason of her position as a director of the Company (“Confidential Information”) or any other material non-public information regarding any other person or entity, then Investor will (i) maintain the strict confidentiality of such Confidential Information or material non-public information, and (ii) abstain from trading in securities of the Company in violation of applicable law while in possession of any such Confidential Information or material non-public information. Investor will abstain from trading in any securities of the Company (including any swap or hedging transactions or other derivative agreements of any nature with respect to securities issued by the Company or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Company Common Stock (or rights decoupled from the underlying securities)) for the time periods during which the Investor Director is prohibited from such trading pursuant to the Company’s trading policy. Subject to compliance with applicable laws, Investor shall in any event be free to trade or engage in the foregoing transactions (i) during any such “open window” periods when the directors of the Company generally are permitted to do so and (ii) from and any time after the opening of the first open window period following the cessation of the Investor Director’s service as a member of the Board as contemplated herein. The Company will notify Investor in advance when such open window period begins.

(b)    Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that Investor or any of its Affiliates are required in connection with a legal, judiciary, regulatory or administrative investigation or proceeding, by interrogatories, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar legally mandatory process (excluding any such requirement arising out of any action or proceeding initiated by Investor or any of its Affiliates, including for the avoidance of doubt any requirement to make a filing

with the SEC or under any securities laws or regulations, or any requirement arising out of a breach of this Agreement by Investor or its Affiliates) (each, a “Legal Requirement”), to disclose Confidential Information, it is agreed that Investor or such Affiliate, as applicable, will, to the extent legally permissible, provide the Company with prompt (and in any case, prior to the disclosure) written notice of such event so that the Company may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy, at the sole expense of the Company, or waive compliance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement and, if applicable, the Company’s code of conduct and ethics for directors by Investor or such Affiliate. In the event that (x) such protective order or other remedy is not obtained and disclosure of Confidential Information is therefore required pursuant to such Legal Requirement or (y) the Company consents in writing to having the Confidential Information produced or disclosed pursuant to such Legal Requirement, then Investor or its Affiliate, as the case may be, (i) may, without liability hereunder, furnish that portion (and only that portion) of the Confidential Information that Investor or such Affiliate’s outside legal counsel advises is legally required to be disclosed and (ii) will use reasonable efforts, at the Company’s sole expense, to obtain reasonable assurance that confidential treatment is accorded to any Confidential Information so furnished. In no event will Investor or its Affiliates, as applicable, oppose any action by the Company to obtain a protective order or other relief to prevent the disclosure of the Confidential Information or to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be afforded to the Confidential Information.

(c)    Any confidentiality obligations under this Section 12 or Section 1(b)(iv) of this Agreement shall expire eighteen (18) months after the date on which the Investor Director ceases to serve as a director of the Comapny; provided, that Investor shall maintain in accordance with the confidentiality obligations set forth herein any Confidential Information constituting trade secrets for such longer time as such information constitutes a trade secret of the Company as defined under 18 U.S.C. § 1839(3); and provided, further, that the obligations in this Section 12(c) are not intended to be, and shall not be interpreted as, a contractual restriction on any trading activities of Investor or its Affiliates taken in the sole judgment of Investor or its Affiliates in accordance with applicable law.

13.    Communications with Management of the Company.

(a) All communications regarding the Company between the members of the Company’s Board of Directors and Company’s management team, on the one hand, and the representatives of Investor and its Affiliates, on the other hand, will be coordinated through the Company’s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer Chief Financial Officer, General Counsel and/or representatives of the Company’s investor relations team (“Contact Personnel”), and (ii) Investor agrees that, except as otherwise consented to in advance in writing by the Company or as permitted by this Agreement, neither Investor nor its Affiliates will initiate or maintain contact with any officer, director or employee of the Company.

(b) Nothing in this Section 13 will apply to (i) the Investor Director when acting in her capacity as a director of the Company or (ii) communications by Investor in the ordinary course of business at investor or industry meetings or conferences, which communications shall be subject to compliance with the other provisions of this Agreement.

(c) Nothing in this Section 13 constitutes a commitment on the part of the Company or any of its representatives to make any disclosures to Investor or any of its Affiliates.

14.    Public Announcements.

The Company shall announce this Agreement by means of a press release, the content of which shall be mutually agreed-upon by both parties hereto (the “Press Release”). Neither the Company nor Investor shall make or cause to be made any public announcement or statement with respect to the subject of this Agreement that is contrary to the statements made in the Press Release, except as required by law or the rules of any stock exchange or with the prior written consent of the other Party. The Company acknowledges that Investor may file this Agreement as an exhibit to its Schedule 13D. The Company shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any Schedule 13D filing made by Investor with respect to this Agreement prior to the filing with the SEC, and Investor shall give reasonable consideration in good faith to any reasonable comments of the Company. Investor

acknowledges and agrees that the Company may file this Agreement and file or furnish the Press Release with the SEC as exhibits to a Current Report on Form 8-K and other filings with the SEC. Investor shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Form 8-K made by the Company with respect to this Agreement prior to the filing with the SEC, and the Company shall give reasonable consideration in good faith to any reasonable comments of Investor.
